Having distributedC. Being distributedD. Distributed【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:课本被分发给家里的学生,使他们能更有效地学习。分析句子结
19、构可知distribute在句中作非谓语动词,与逻辑主语textbooks构成被动关系,故用过去分词形式,故排除A/B选项;C选项Being distributed表示“正在被”,句子没有体现动作正在进行,与前后语境不符。故选D。15. Here you are.You can do it by six oclock.By six oclock?_!Im not superman.A.

70、ese reasons,climate scientists have long sought to develop methods to predict and control lightning.(世界各地每年有6,000至24,000人死于闪电。闪电袭击还可能导致停电、破坏财产、损坏电气设备和引发森林火灾)”可知,科协家们想预测、控制闪电是因为想找到办法,以减少闪电所带来的危害和损失。故选B项。【41题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中“The data related to four main surface conditions: air pressure, air temperatur
71、e, relative humidity and wind speed.”可知,与四个主要表面条件有关的数据有气压、空气温度、相对湿度和风速,没有提到空气污染。故选A项。【42题详解】词句猜测题。根据第五段“The atmospheric data was placed into a machine learning algorithm (算法), which compared it to records of lightning strikes.(将大气数据输入到机器学习计算法中,随后计算法会将这些数据与闪电袭击记录进行比较)”可以推测,it指代上一句中的the atmospheric da
