17、B 3. C【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者一家人遭遇极端天气,家庭成员几经周折才安全到家,家里虽然没电,但因为做了充分的准备,所以并不慌张。【1题详解】细节理解题。由第二段中的“As I hung up the phone,I heard a tree crack. I went outside and stood in the driveway. Another tree exploded and my heart was racing.”(当我挂断电话时,我听到一棵树劈啪作响。我走到外面,站在车道上。另一棵树爆裂了,我的心跳加速。)和第三段中的“When the school bu
18、s carrying the youngsters arrived,I ran to get them.

19、 of the yard,where no trees could land on us.”(孩子们显然很害怕,所以我把他们装进车里,我们把车停在院子中间,那里没有树可以落在我们身上。),可知作者把车停在院子中间,是因为没有树木能够砸到他们,得出作者认为院子里更安全。故选B项。【3题详解】短语猜测题。由第一段中的“My husband left for work in the north of the town,which is an hour and a halfs drive.”(我丈夫去城北上班,那里有一个半小时的车程。),画线词前一句“My oldest son didnt come

21、 spirits and makes us feel more centered and at peace.When we breathe in fresh air,and enjoy the beauty of trees,streams and oceans,we naturally tend to feel more connected to ourselves and others.Over the past decade,scientists have been exploring why nature-and dirt specifically-is such a powerful

23、York found that contact with M.Vaccae could increase serotonin levels in the brain-a chemical that is associated with higher levels of happiness-increased focus,and reduced anxiety.In order to explore how the bacteria could improve learning,researchers Dory Mathews and Susan Jenks experimented with
24、mice in a maze.Mice that ingested the bacteria navigated the maze twice as fast as the control group and proved less anxious as well.Humans can absorb M.Vaccae just by playing in the dirt.We take in it when we breathe,we consume it in organic vegetables,and it can also enter our bloodstream through
25、skin contact,especially where we have open cuts.This may explain why children in school perform better after break.Neuroscientist Christopher Lowry at the University of Bristol in England believes that he has identified why this incredible bacterium works.“What we think happens is that the bacteria

31、o increase their activity.”可知,这种细菌激活了免疫细胞,免疫细胞释放一种叫细胞因子化学物质,然后作用于感觉神经上的受体,增加它们的活性。所以,M.Vaccae是通过激活免疫细胞来工作的。故选D。【6题详解】主旨大意题。根据全文内容以及第二段科学家的研究“scientists have been exploring why nature-and dirt specifically-is such a powerful tool in improving our mood.”可知,科学家们一直在探索为什么大自然尤其是泥土是改善我们情绪的有力工具。本文主要讲述了人们在户外

34、g the most coral cover declines. Warming stresses corals up to a point that may cause death. Some corals bleach (白化) before dying. Other corals do not bleach but die directly.” He went on, “Our findings are significant because this survival strategy was only known from fossil corals that existed hun
35、dreds of millions of years ago. It is the first time that it has been found in a living coral. Thanks to our findings, we know now that some corals are able to recover, but unfortunately this is not enough in the current climate change context.”For their research, Kersting and Linares monitored 243
36、colonies of the endangered reef-building coral Cladocoracaespitosa in Spains Columbretes Islands Marine Reserve over 16 years, starting in 2002. The monitoring revealed that Cladocoracaespitosa in the Mediterranean uses rejuvenescence to cope with warming events. This process involves the polyps or

38、ersting said. “Once the stressful event is over, the shrunken or rejuvenated polyp recovers its size and builds up a new skeleton. Eventually, it begins to reproduce itself through budding and begins to cover the dead colony surfaces.”He continued, “The results were very surprising because I started
39、 to observe colonies that were dead years ago, that were showing living parts many years after their death.”7. What is the greatest threat to corals now?A. Overfishing.B. Light pollution.C.

44、哥伦布群岛海洋保护区的243个濒危的造礁珊瑚群落进行了长达16年的监测。监测结果显示,地中海的克拉多沙鱼利用新生来应对变暖事件。)以及第三段主要介绍珊瑚再生这一过程。故第三段主要讲了珊瑚如何恢复和再生。故选D。【10题详解】词义猜测题。根据后句“Once the stressful event is over; the shrunken or rejuvenated polyp recovers its size and builds up a new skeleton. Eventually, it begins to reproduce itself through budding and
45、 begins to cover the dead colony surfaces.”(一旦压力事件结束,萎缩的或恢复活力的珊瑚虫恢复其大小并会建立一个新的骨骼。最终,它开始通过发芽繁殖,并开始覆盖死去的表面)可知,当有压力事件发生时,珊瑚虫会从珊瑚上撤退。故划线单词意思为“撤退”,故选A。【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一,可以大致分为 定义猜词,可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to,be called或thats to say,such as等。 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义,例如,similarly,the same as,but
46、,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等,所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。 语法猜词,可以根据构词法,再结合上下文进行猜词。 语境猜词,猜测词义离不开上下文的语境,通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析,同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容,做题时要注意指代词的位置,以便于判断,然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词,核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致,最后比较所找部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。如第四小题,根据后句“Once the stress
47、ful event is over; the shrunken or rejuvenated polyp recovers its size and builds up a new skeleton. Eventually, it begins to reproduce itself through budding and begins to cover the dead colony surfaces.”(一旦压力事件结束,萎缩的或恢复活力的 polyp恢复其大小并会建立一个新的骨骼。最终,它开始通过发芽繁殖,并开始覆盖死去的表面)可知,当有压力事件发生时, polyp会从珊瑚上撤退。故划线

54、s,whether small or big.”每个人都有目标,无论目标大小,G项的but表示转折,仅仅有目标是不够的,有目标和实现目标之间有很大距离,同时引出了下文介绍的有效写下目标并且实现目标的方法,故选G。【12题详解】根据空格后“But there are a few people who shape their lives according to their goals.”但是有一些人根据目标形成自己的生活。可以得知前面对比另一些人的情况。D项中的most people 和a few people 形成对比。故选D(大多数人受环境的影响)。【13题详解】根据空格前“Now is w
