46、,一只小熊攀爬雪山,滑落后继续爬的事情,经过科学家们的解读后可知小熊爬山并非像人们所称赞的具有永不放弃的精神,而是因为受到了无人机的惊吓。人类大多与大自然分离,作者提出:当我们与大自然接触时,要与动物保持适当的距离。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“There was a video many of you may have seen on the Internet recently of a bear and its cub (幼崽) climbing up a steep, snow-covered hill in Russia. (你们很多人可能最近在网上看过一段视频,一只熊带着它的
47、幼崽爬上了俄罗斯一座陡峭的白雪覆盖的小山)”可知,视频主要拍摄的是幼熊爬山。故选A项。【25题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Instead, the scientists were upset that the two bears had been frightened into making a dangerous, unnecessary climb by the drone (无人机) that was filming them. Sophie Gilbert of the University of Idaho said, “It showed a complete lack of u
48、nderstanding from the drone operator of the effects his actions were having on the bears.” Other scientists have found that when a drone is hovering near, a bears heart rate can increase from 41 beats per minute to 162 beats per minute a high enough rate to cause a heart attack.(相反,科学家们感到不安的是,这两只熊被拍

50、e. Researchers at the University of Berkeley recently found that many mammals are turning into “night owls” again to avoid contact with humans. Such a shift might not only affect those species themselves, but also have numerous chain effects.(人类的干扰实际上对野生动物产生了深远的影响。伯克利大学的研究人员最近发现,许多哺乳动物为了避免与人类接触,正再次变
51、成“夜猫子”。这种转变可能不仅会影响这些物种本身,还会产生许多连锁效应)”可知,许多哺乳动物为了避免与人类接触而转变作息,但这会影响物种本身且带来连锁反应。由此可知,人类干扰对野生动物造成的影响是生态不平衡。故选C项。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“So, when we go off hiking into wild areas to “re-connect” with nature, we should go softly and considerately. Its OK to get close to our animal friends, just not too close
52、 we wouldnt want to scare them, would we?(所以,当我们去野外徒步旅行,与大自然“重新连接”时,我们应该温柔而体贴。和我们的动物朋友亲近是可以的,只是不要太亲密我们不想吓到它们,对吧?)”可知作者提倡人类与动物接触应保持适当的距离。由此可推知,作者会同意C项内容表述的观点“尊重人与动物之间的距离”。故选C项。CEarly data from Israel suggests Covid-19 infection rates began to decrease among a group of vaccine (疫苗) recipients two week

A 31. C【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了以色列这个国家面对新冠疫情,通过给民众接种疫苗后数据的实时反馈来判断疫苗功效。【28题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“The small count
63、ry whose roughly nine million population is about the size of New York Citys has vaccinated nearly a fourth of its population in just under a month,the first country to hit that mark as it fights an upsurge (激增) in new infections.(这个人口约为900万、相当于纽约市大小的小国,在不到一个月的时间里为近四分之一的人口接种了疫苗,成为第一个抗击新感染病例激增的国家)”可知
64、,划线词组hit that mark指代的是以色列要达到的目标,即“在不到一个月的时间里,为四分之一的以色列人接疫苗”。a fourth of与one quarter of都是“四分之一”的意思。故选C。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Clalit noted that the number of people infected was statistically significant, but said it wouldnt release final numbers until its study is published.(Clalit指出,受感染的人数在数据统计上是很显著的,
65、但是在其研究发表之前不会公布最后的数字)”可知,Clalit认为最新的感染人数,在数据统计方面是非常重要的,研究结果发表之前是不会公布最终的数字的。故选D。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Israel has committed to providing Pfizer with real-time data about their vaccine,from effectiveness to side effects,which Israeli officials said helped it obtain early supply from the vaccine maker.(以色
66、列已经承诺向Pfizer提供有关其疫苗的实时数据,从有效性到副作用,以色列政府说这将有助于Pfizer获得疫苗制造商的早期供应)”可知,如果以色列及时提供疫苗使用情况的反馈,Pfizer就同意把它们国家放在优先供应名单中。故选A。【31题详解】主旨大意题。根据文中最后一段“Separately,Israels Health Ministry published data about side effects from the vaccine, saying they were similar in frequency and character to other vaccinations gi
67、ven to its people.(另外,以色列卫生部公布了有关这种疫苗副作用的数据,称这种副作用在频率和性质上与使用的其他疫苗类似)”以及文中多次提到通过数据得出疫苗的作用可知,这篇文章的主旨就是通过数据来表明疫苗的功效。所以C项适合当做文章标题。故选C。DWhen we are kids, we are constantly being compared to others.

88、re happy with silence of 8. 2 seconds.【答案】36. A 37. C 38. G 39. F 40. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了不同文化对沉默的不同看法。【36题详解】上文“Knowing when to be tight-lipped can give you the upper hand in everything from sales deals and pay talks to presentations and staff development.(知道什么时候该守口如瓶,可以让你在从销售协议、薪酬谈判到展示和员工发展等一
89、切事情上占据上风)”说明适当的沉默是宝贵的。A选项“So sometimes silence really is golden.(所以有时候沉默是金) ”符合上文文意。故选A项。【37题详解】下文“What one culture considers an awkward pause, others see a valuable moment of reflection and a sign of respect for what the last speaker has said.(一种文化认为是尴尬的停顿,而另一种文化则认为是宝贵的反思时刻,是对最后一个发言者所说的话的尊重)”说明不同文化
90、对于沉默的不同理解,因此填空处是总领下文介绍不同文化不同看法的句子。C选项“But the view of silence differs across cultures.(但是,不同文化对沉默的看法不同)”总启下文,符合文意。故选C项。【38题详解】根据下文“It is nearly twice as long as in Americans meetings Native English speakers tend to be most uncomfortable with long gaps in a discussion.(在美国人的会议中,以英语为母语的人往往会对讨论中的长间隙感到最
91、不自在,而这一时间几乎是美国人的两倍)”可知,填空处应有准确的沉默时间才可以进行比较。G选项“In contrast, Japanese people were happy with silence of 8. 2 seconds.(相比之下,日本人只喜欢8.2秒的沉默)”有具体时间,符合比较条件。故选G项。【39题详解】下文“In the US, it may come from the history of colonial America as a crossroads of many different peoples.(在美国,它可能来自于殖民时期美国作为许多不同民族的十字路口的历史
92、)”说明,填空处应是对于以英语为母语的人觉得长时间的停顿很难处理原因的提问。F选项“So why do native English speakers find long pauses hard to handle?(那么,为什么以英语为母语的人觉得长时间的停顿很难处理呢?)”符合下文语境。故选F项。【40题详解】根据上文“In the US, it may come from the history of colonial America as a crossroads of many different peoples.(在美国,它可能来自于殖民时期美国作为许多不同民族的十字路口的历史)”
93、可知,美国是以英语为母语,觉得长时间的停顿难以处理。下文“ When theres more similarity perhaps its easier for some kinds of silence to appear.(当双方有更多相似之处时,可能更容易出现某种形式的沉默)”说明同样以英语为母语的地方,也会认为长时间的停顿难以处理。B选项“This applies also to some extent to London.(这在某种程度上也适用于伦敦)”伦敦以英语为母语,与美国有相似的地方,因此符合文意。故选B项。第三部分 语言运用 (共两节,满分30分)第一节 (共15小题; 每小
