45、study agriculture. But his parents worried”可知，袁隆平申请大学时，他决定学习农业，但他的父母担心农业工作将是艰难和累人的。故画线词指的是“农业工作”。故选B。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Yuan could make such achievements partly because he believed in the power of science as a harvest multiplier, noted Peoples Daily. (人民日报指出，袁隆平之所以能取得这样的成就，部分原因是他相信科学的力量可以带来丰收)”可知，

49、saka University.“Viewing cute images of baby animals gives us a desire to act tenderly and responsibly to protect them” he explains. “This idea holds that weak and defenseless but cute things set off caregiving behavior in the beholder.” Cute things make us feel protective, and when were protective,
50、 we might be naturally more focused.Engineers, advertisers, and developers have taken advantage of this phenomenon, using kawaii to control user experience and consumer behavior. Researchers call it cute engineering. Its a way to harness positive feelings and emotions to motivate (激励) and shape the
51、users behavior in a positive way.Sometimes cute engineering is subtle (微妙的), but its often quite obvious. Engineers use kawaii in the field of robotics, for instancethe cuter the robot, the more humans will want to engage with it. Theres also the iMac, which over the years, Apple designed to be subt

58、positive feelings and emotions（积极地情绪）”指代上文提到的“cute feelings(可爱的感觉)”；结合第三段第一句“Engineers, advertisers, and developers have taken advantage of this phenomenon, using kawaii to control user experience and consumer behavior. (工程师、广告商和开发人员利用这一现象，用kawaii来控制用户体验和消费者行为)”可知，划线词所在句可译为“这是一种利用积极的情绪和情感，以积极的方式来激励和
59、塑造用户的行为”，所以此处划线单词“harness”译为“利用，使用”；选项D意为“利用，使用”，与原文相符。故选D项。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“iMac”可以定位到文章第四段，根据第四段第四句“It persuaded traditionally non-computer users to buy into the world of computing so that they could sell more units.( 它说服了传统的非计算机用户购买并进入计算机世界，这样他们就可以卖出更多的设备)”可知，商家把iMac设计的可爱，是为了吸引更多的消费者去购买，从而赚
60、到更多的收益；选项B意为“电脑生产商可以赚更多的钱”，与原文相符。故选B项。【31题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第一段的“I think kawaii, or cute feelings, can remind us of human connection that we sometimes forget,(我认为kawaii，或者说可爱的感觉，可以提醒我们人类我们有时会忘记的联系)”，第二段的“Cute things make us feel protective, and when were protective, we might be naturally more focused.( 可
61、爱的东西让我们有保护的感觉，当我们有保护欲的时候，我们自然会更加专注)”,第三段的“Engineers, advertisers, and developers have taken advantage of this phenomenon, using kawaii to control user experience and consumer behavior. (工程师、广告商和开发人员利用这一现象，利用kawaii来控制用户体验和消费者行为)”，第四段的“Sometimes cute engineering is subtle (微妙的), but its often quite ob
62、vious. (有时可爱工程是微妙的, 但这通常很明显)”，以及第五段“Theres alsocute filtering (萌物滤镜)（还有萌物滤镜）”；可知，全文主要在详细解释kawaii这个词，以及它在生活中一些方面的运用，选项A意为“Kawaii的力量”，可以很好的概括全文主题。故选A项。DClimate change is making people sick, according to a pair of influential reports on the connections between global warming and health.Dr. Renee Sala,

F【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。本文讲的是地球上降雨，不同地区降雨不同，人们对动物和雨的关系的理解以及动物和雨之间的传说。【36题详解】上文“On other planets, it may rain methane (甲烷), iron or sulphuric acid
82、(硫酸).( 在其他行星上，可能会下甲烷、铁或硫酸雨)”提到其它星球下的各种雨不适合生存，因此推断后面应该提到地球下的雨适合生存，G项“但是，在我们的宇宙，只有地球上才有来自天空的淡水来维持生命)符合语境，but表示转折来说地球的情况。故选G项。【37题详解】下文“Its difficult to work out precisely which place on Earth is the wettest(要精确计算出地球上哪个地方最潮湿是困难的)”以及“At the other extreme, the driest place on Earth is the Antarctic(地球上最干
83、燥的地方是南极)” 并结合小标题Wettest and driest可知本段讲的是最湿润和最干旱的地方，也就是降雨的不同， E项“当下雨的时候，有些地方比其他地方更幸运” 符合语境，也就是有些地方降雨多，有些地方降雨少，导致有的地方潮湿，有的干旱，故选E项。【38题详解】下文“In different cultures, owls, blackbirds, swallows and peacocks and in the US state of Texas, even toads can predict weather change. (在不同的文化中，猫头鹰、画眉、燕子和孔雀，甚至在美国德克
84、萨斯州，蟾蜍都能预测天气变化)”可知本段讲的是人们认为动物能预测天气变化，能预测下雨，C项“人们相信动物能预报下雨”符合题意。故选C项。【39题详解】空格处是段落标题。根据下文“Its not surprising that ancient people respected the rain and developed myths (神话) connected to animals to explain it. ”(古人尊重雨，并发展与动物有关的神话来解释雨，这并不奇怪)可知古人把动物与雨联系起来，下文“The San people of South Africa say stormy wea
85、ther is brought by the dangerous rain-bull escaping from his cave, but that soft rain the gift of the gentle rain-cow.”( 南非的桑人说暴风雨天气是危险的雨牛逃离洞穴带来的，但柔和的雨是温柔的雨牛的礼物)举例说明了动物与雨的故事，因此推断本段介绍了雨和动物的关系，因此A项“雨和动物”可概括本段。故选A项。【40题详解】上文“The San people of South Africa say stormy weather is brought by the dangerous
86、rain-bull escaping from his cave, but that soft rain the gift of the gentle rain-cow. (南非的桑人说暴风雨天气是危险的雨牛逃离洞穴带来的，但柔和的雨是温柔的雨牛的礼物)” 可知后面是举例说明某些地区动物与雨的关系，下文“Its wings cause thunder as it carries messages across the sky. (它的翅膀能发出雷鸣，因为它在天空中传递信息) ”举了另一个例子。 F项“北美人使用强大的雨鸟形象”也是例子，符合语境。故选F项。第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分
