Once you do, youll find miles of beachfront and a historic lighthouse.Block Island, Rhode IslandAccessible by ferry, Block Island oozes New England charm.

16、 that its hard to believe that scientists have had very little idea why cold weather helps germs to spread.Worldwide, up to five million people catch the illness each flu season, and around a quarter of a million die from it. Part of its power comes from the fact that the virus changes so quickly th
17、at the body is hardly prepared. “The antibodies(抗体) weve built up no longer recognize the virusso we lose our immunity,” says Jane Metz at the University of Bristol. It also makes it harder to develop effective vaccines, and even if one comes out, governments often fail to persuade enough people to
18、take it up.The hope is that by understanding better why flu spreads in winter, but naturally fades in summer, doctors could find simple measures to stop its spread.Previous theories had centred on our behaviour. We spend more time indoors in the winter, meaning that were in closer contact with other
19、 people who may be carrying germs.Another popular idea concerned our physiology(生理机制): the cold weather weakens your bodys defenses against infection. In winter, without much sunlight, we may run low on Vitamin D, which helps power the bodys immune system. Moreover, when we breathe in cold air, the
20、blood vessels in our nose shrink, which affects the normal function of white blood cells, allowing viruses to slip past our defenses unnoticed.While such factors both play some role, analyses suggested another ignored cause may have been lying invisible in the air that we breathe. Thanks to the laws
21、 of thermodynamics(空气热力学), cold air can carry less water vapor before it reaches the “dew point” and falls as rain. So while the weather outside may seem wetter, the air itself is drier as it loses the moisture(水分). And researches in the past few years has shown that these dry conditions seem to off
22、er the perfect environment for the flu virus to flourish.In wetter air, the epidemic struggles to build strength, while in drier conditions it spreads like wildfire. And comparing 30 years climate records with health records, Jeffrey Shaman at Columbia University found that flu epidemics almost alwa
23、ys followed a drop in air humidity(湿度).24What can we infer from the second paragraph ?AThe antibodies fail to function due to variation(变化) of virus.BWe lose immunity due to the absence of our antibodies.CGovernment should come up with better ways to persuade people.DOne in four of the infected die
24、from the influenza(流行性感冒) each flu season.25What is the purpose of understanding better why flu spreads in winter?ATo help develop effective vaccine.BTo seek ways to treat people infected with flu.CTo figure out ways to cut off its transmission.DTo explore how to defend our immune system.26In which

28、ewark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what was possible in the past. “There is a great effort so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,” he said. “Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people co
29、uld live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last past about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans
30、 to death.Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. “It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?” said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre. “At present people who could get
31、to that point are not in good health at all.”28By saying “we are knocking at the door of immortality”, Michael Zey means_.Athey have got some ideas about living foreverBthey believe that there is no limit of livingCthey are able to make people live past the present life spanDthey have found the trut

34、ng LivingDNot since humans invented shoes or underwear has a single item of clothing become so common in such a short amount of time. From Melbourne to Mexico City, Beijing to Bordeaux, many people can be seen wearing this piece of clothing: the face mask. But rarely, maybe never, has anything else
35、worn by humans created such widespread debate. Jeremy Howard is the co-founder of Masks4All, a group supporting face mask use for everyone. Speaking recently about masks, Howard said there has probably never been such a quick and “dramatic” change in worldwide human behavior. Yet not everyone is acc
36、epting of this safety measure, which health officials say is aimed at reducing the spread of the coronavirus. Plenty of people do not like being told what to do. Many also do not trust scientific evidence suggesting that masks can be an effective way to reduce new infections. A person in London argu

This is nothing new.”Mohammed al-Burji, a 42-year-old government worker in Lebanon, shared his thoughts on wearing masks. “There is no coronavirus, brother.

But across the street from the shop where Brunet-Moret was buying cheese, Laure Estiez said that going out withou

69、 point是世界上最神秘的海滩之一。可知, Great point是世界上最隐蔽的沙滩之一,结合选项, 故选C项。22细节理解题。根据文章第二段, Its worth the effort to get to Mohegan Bluffs, where you can experience a set of 141 wooden steps leading down to the sand. 去莫赫根悬崖是值得的, 在那里你可以体验到141个通往沙滩的木制台阶。可知, 人们认为去Mohegan Bluffs是值得的, 因为那里可以体验141层木头台阶, 这对游客很有吸引力。结合选项, 故选D
70、项。23推理判断题。根据文章标题, The Top 4 Beaches on the East Coast. 东海岸四大海滩;以及Jekyll Island, GeorgiaLocated off the coast of Georgia, this 5, 700acre barrier island is famous for its nesting sea turtles and hermit crabs. 这个5700英亩的屏障岛位于佐治亚州海岸, 以海龟和寄居蟹筑巢而闻名,可知, 文中介绍的四个岛都位于美国东海岸, 结合选项, 故选B项。B篇【分析】本篇是说明文,文章介绍了流感在冬天传
71、播的原因。24推理判断题。根据第二段“Part of its power comes from the fact that the virus changes so quickly that the body is hardly prepared. “The antibodies weve built up no longer recognize the virus so we lose our immunity,” says Jane Metz at the University of Bristol.” 流感病毒的变异速度极快,往往令我们的身体对下一季的菌株措不及防。布里斯托大学的简梅茨(
72、Jane Metz)说我们体内的抗体已经无法识别这些病毒所以我们失去了免疫力。所以从第二段可以看出,我们身体的抗体由于病毒的变化多样而无法运行。故选A项。25细节理解题。根据第三段“The hope is that by understanding better why flu spreads in winter, but naturally fades in summer, doctors could find simple measures to stop its spread.” 倘若能够更好地了解流感为什么在冬季流行,到了夏季却销声匿迹,医生便可找到简单的方法来抑制它的传播。所以为了更
73、好地了解流感为什么在冬季流行的目的是为了抑制流感传播。故选C项。26推理判断题。根据第五段“In winter, without much sunlight, we may run low on Vitamin D, which helps power the bodys immune system. Moreover, when we breathe in cold air, the blood vessels in our nose shrink, which affects the normal function of white blood cells, allowing viruse
74、s to slip past our defenses unnoticed.” 由于冬天日照时间缩短,我们体内的维生素D含量可能降低。由于维生素D有助于加强我们的免疫系统,因此这种营养物质的缺乏导致我们更容易患传染病。所以阻止我们获得足够维D的天气更容易爆发流感。故选D项。27主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“The flu season arrives so predictably, and affects so many of us, that its hard to believe that scientists have had very little idea why cold weath
75、er helps germs to spread.” 流感季节总是很有规律,而且总会影响很多人。但即便如此,科学家对于寒冷的天气为什么有助于流感病菌的传播却知之甚少,这着实令人意外。文章首段引出主题,整篇文章都是围绕着为什么细菌在冬天传播。所以短文的最佳标题为“为什么细菌在冬天传播”。故选C项。C篇【分析】这是一篇议论文。人类是否能够获得更长更健康?科学家对此有不同的看法。28推理判断题。根据文章第二段“I think we are knocking at the door of immortality(永生),” said Michael Zey, a Montclair State Uni
76、versity business professor and author of two books on the future. “I think by 2075 we will see it and thats a conservative estimate(保守的估计).” 我认为我们正在敲永生的门,” 蒙特克莱尔州立大学的商业教授迈克尔说, “我认为,到2075年我们将会看到这种现象,这是一个保守的估计。”这里教授表明到2075年就可以实现永生,由此判断出这里的含义是科学家们对如何获得永生有了一些想法。故选A项。29细节理解题。根据第三段“At the conference in Sa
77、n Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what was possible in the past.”唐纳德教授说使用基因以及纳米技术的进步表明人类将生活在超越过去可能的未来是很可能的。所以这里教授觉得人类在未来会活的更久是有可能的,故选B项。
78、30词义猜测题。根据第三段末尾“Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”有些科学家表明,人类可以活到200年,300年或者500年都是没有限制的,但是许多专攻衰老方面的科学家对此抱有疑问。所以这里it指代前一段提到的人类可以活到200年或300年,故选D项。31主旨大意题。文章第二段“I think we are knocking at the door of immortality(永生),” 教授迈克尔表明到2075年就可以实现永生,第
79、四段“However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last past about 120 years.” 然而,许多专门研究衰老问题的科学家对此表示怀疑,他们说,人的身体设计不适合活过大约120年,提出人类永生的质疑,所以整篇文章是围绕着人类是否永生展开。故短文的最佳标题为“人类是否能够获得更长更健康”。故选B项。D篇【分析】本文是新闻报道。文章主要描述来自世界各地的关于口罩的想法。32推理判断题。第一段
80、第一句“Not since humans invented shoes or underwear has a single item of clothing become so common in such a short amount of time.”自从人类发明了鞋子或内衣以来,还没有一件衣服在如此短的时间内变得如此普遍。最后一句“many people can be seen wearing this piece of clothing: the face mask.” 可以看到很多人都穿着这种衣服:口罩。这里举衣服的例子,想表达口罩如衣服一样普遍了。故选C项。33推理判断题。根据第二
81、段“杰里米霍华德是Masks4All的联合创始人,该组织支持每个人都使用口罩。”霍华德是创始人,所以他同意口罩受欢迎,故选B项。34推理判断题。根据第六段“Mohammed al - Burji, a 42 - year - old government worker in Lebanon, shared his thoughts on wearing masks. “There is no coronavirus, brother. Theyre just cheating people.”42岁的黎巴嫩政府工作人员Mohammed al - Burji分享了他对戴口罩的看法。“没有冠状病毒
