28、更能容忍噪音。故选C。C“All puppies are cute,” explains Clive Wynne, the head of Arizona State Universitys canine-science laboratory. “But not all puppies are equally cute.

In other words, the more dogs get us to look at them, the more tightly bonded (联系) to them we grow.Born blind and basically deaf, puppies arent interactive (互动的) in their first weeks of life, and Wynne notes that many people find animals in this stage alien and unattractive. A recent stud
33、y focused on humans showed that, similar to six-week-old puppies, six-month-old babies are seen as significantly cuter than newborns, which inspires a flood of social interactions, such as petting, playing, and baby-talking.

37、d the eighth week, after which puppies rely on humans for survival. Peak cuteness, then, is no accident.”(Wynne说,这个年龄是一个重要的发育时期:狗妈妈在第8周左右停止喂养它们的幼犬,之后幼犬依靠人类生存。因此,萌到极点并非偶然。)可知从Wynne的研究中,我们可以了解到“可爱”有助于小狗生存。故选B。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Oxytocin, the so-called love hormone, has been found to suddenly increase
38、 in dogs and their owners after they look in each others eyes.”(催产素,也就是所谓的爱情荷尔蒙,被发现在狗狗和主人对视后会突然增加)可知我们能从文章中了解到催产素是一种能激发爱的荷尔蒙。故选A。【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Born blind and basically deaf, puppies arent interactive (互动的) in their first weeks of life, and Wynne notes that many people find animals in this stage
39、 alien and unattractive. ”可知狗狗刚生下来时没有视觉和听觉功能,不与人互动,所以在这个阶段一般是陌生并且不吸引人的。此处的alien应该是“陌生的”意思,与strange意思相符。故选C。【10题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Indeed, recent research indicates that peak puppy cuteness serves important purposes and might play an important role in binding dog and owner together.”(事实上,最近的研究表明,小狗的可爱程度达
40、到顶峰是有重要作用的,而且可能在把狗狗和主人联系在一起方面发挥重要作用)结合全文内容,可知本文由狗及人,最后一段提到了根据狗狗可爱度的研究,引发了对于与新生儿互动的思考。因此,“最可爱的生存”最适合作文章标题。故选C。第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Become a Glass Half-Full PersonTimes are tough and many people are struggling.

47、是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了让你充满乐观的小窍门。【11题详解】根据后文各段落小标题“Set your intention.(设置你的意图。)”,“Carry yourself like an optimist.(保持乐观的心态。)”和“Turn a problem into an opportunity.(把问题变成机会。)”可知,设空句应是起到承起后文的作用,即:提出后文段落为一些关于如何保持乐观的方法或建议。选项F“Below are tips on filling up your cup of optimism.(下面是一些让你充满乐观的小窍门。)”中“below”与后文相呼应,符合语
48、境需求。故选F项。【12题详解】根据本段小标题“Set your intention.”可知,本段的核心词汇为intention,且结合后文“It helps you better focus your time and energy.(它帮助你更好地集中你的时间和精力。)”可知,设空句应是在讲述“设定目标”的积极作用。选项D“Being intentional acts like a compass.”提及有意识的行为就像指南针,解释了设定目标的积极作用,且intentional呼应段落核心词intention。故选D项。【13题详解】根据本段小标题“Carry yourself like
49、an optimist.(保持乐观的心态。)”可知,本段在讲述如何保持乐观的心态,且后文“Talk with people as though you were the outgoing, confident, optimistic and successful person you wish to be and you will attract all sorts of positive people and opportunities into your life.(与人交谈,就像你是一个外向的,自信的,乐观的,成功的人,你会吸引各种各样的积极的人和机会进入你的生活。)”提到了保持乐观心态
50、的行为方式,由此可推知,设空句应也会提及一些行为方式。选项C“Stand tall and smile confidently.”提到挺直腰板,自信地微笑,这些可以看作为乐观心态的行为方式,符合语境。故选C项。【14题详解】设空句为本段小标题。根据空后的进一步解释“Often the very thing we need to improve out circumstances require courage.(通常情况下,我们需要改善的事情需要勇气)”可知,本段在讲述的核心词汇应是“courage”。选项A“Perform an act of courage.( 表现出勇气。)”复现了核心词
51、汇“courage”,且合理概括了该段内容,符合语境。故选A项。【15题详解】根据本段小标题“Turn a problem into an opportunity.”可知,本段在讲述把问题变成机会。结合后文“If you change the way you look at your problems, your problems change and transform into a rich array of opportunities to grow, learn and discover inner resources you never knew you had!( 如果你改变了你看
52、待问题的方式,你的问题就会改变并转化为成长、学习和发现内在资源的丰富机会。)”可知,作者要强调的是乐观主义者会改变看待问题的方式,即:换个角度思考问题。选项G“But you can solve them by approaching them from a new angle.(但是你可以从一个新的角度来处理它们。)”符合该段主旨要义,其中“approaching them from a new angle”与后文的“change the way you look at your problems”相呼应,且与前文形成转折关系,符合语境。故选G项。【点睛】七选五技巧之词语复现显神功词语复现是
53、指作者或说话人在谈论某个话题或主题时,与主题相关的词语必定会以原词,同义词或近义词等形式在上下文中重复出现。词语复现是语篇衔接的一个重要手段,而七选五正是考查语篇衔接,因此利用词语复现解决七选五的问题是十分有效的。比如文章的第4小题:_4_ Often the very thing we need to improve out circumstances require courage. That is, closing the gap between where you are now and where you would like to be in will require steppi
54、ng outside your comfort zone and doing something that scares you way.小题4为本段的小标题,通读空后内容,利用词语复现原则可知,主题词汇应是“courage”以及“doing something that scares you way”。遵循语篇衔接,利用词语复现原则,分析各选项,只有A项“Perform an act of courage.”出现了该段主题词汇“courage”。因此A项为小题4答案。第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共20题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从短文后各题的四
