In fact
23、, our teeth may record any experience thats made a meaningful influence in our lives.According to the study, all of those events are - almost literally-written in stone, or, at least the hard material known as cementum that covers the root of each tooth. While its considered a connective tissue(结缔组织
24、), cementum is very bone-like and hardly the material one might expect to record lifes experiences.“Our results make clear that the skeleton is a dynamic organ,” study lead author Paola Cerrito of New York University says. “We werent expecting these results.” Cementum is keeping our teeth in place,
25、and its considered a hard tissue. And yet, it also manages to be a recorder of our lives on this planet.For the study, researchers looked at 47 sets of teeth from 16 people between the ages of 25 and 69. Those teeth came from a collection of skeletons of Central African Malawians. The remains were p
26、rovided with detailed medical records and thoroughly documented personal histories.Once the team connected the formation of each layer or band to certain life stages, they were able to trace certain life events to tooth formation. “I had an aha moment when looking at the thin sections(切片) of the cem

One psychological event, like going through an ending of a marriage, might look a lot like catching a disease.In any case, the discovery could result in a star turn for a tissue thats long flown under the radar
30、. “The discovery that personal details of a persons life are recorded in this little-studied tissue, promises to bring cementum straight into the center of many discussions concerning the evolution of human life history,” study co-author Timothy Bromage adds.4.

B【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述一个对牙齿的新研究。研究结果告诉我们牙齿可以记录下任何对我们的生活产生重大影响的经历。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段“A new study suggests our teeth tell a lot more about us
34、 than just how often we brush. In fact, our teeth may record any experience thats made a meaningful influence in our lives.”（一项新的研究表明，我们的牙齿能告诉我们更多关于我们的信息，而不仅仅是我们刷牙的频率。事实上，我们的牙齿可以记录下任何对我们的生活产生重大影响的经历。）以及第三段“Our results make clear that the skeleton is a dynamic organ,” study lead author Paola Cerrito
35、of New York University says. “We werent expecting these results.” Cementum is keeping our teeth in place, and its considered a hard tissue. And yet, it also manages to be a recorder of our lives on this planet.”（“我们的研究结果表明，骨骼是一个动态的器官，”该研究的主要作者，纽约大学的Paola Cerrito说。“我们没想到会有这样的结果。”牙骨质是用来固定牙齿的，它是一种坚硬的组织
36、。然而，它也成功地记录了我们在这个星球上的生活。）可知，对于研究的结果，研究者们是意想不到的。这项研究结果让研究员很惊讶。故选D项。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数五段“In fact, the biological records were so detailed; they showed when an individual was imprisonedor suffered from serious illness.”（事实上，这些生物记录非常详细；它们显示了一个人何时被监禁或患有严重疾病。）以及第四段“Just like tree rings, we can look at “to
37、oth rings”: continuously growing layers of tissue on the tooths root surface,” Cerrito explains.”（“就像树木的年轮一样，我们可以看到“牙齿年轮”:牙齿根部表面不断生长的组织层，”Cerrito解释道。）和倒数第三段“These rings are a faithful collection of an individuals physiological experiences and stressors.”（“这些环忠实地收集了个人的生理经历和压力源。”）可知，作者认为“牙齿年轮”和树木的年轮作用
38、是一样的，都是用来记录事件的。故因此可以推断作者提出年轮是为了解释“牙齿年轮”。故选A项。【6题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段“In any case, the discovery could result in a star turn for a tissue thats long flown under the radar. “The discovery that personal details of a persons life are recorded in this little-studied tissue, promises to bring cementum straight
39、 into the center of many discussions concerning the evolution of human life history,” study co-author Timothy Bromage adds.”（无论如何，这一发现可能会使长期未被发现的人体组织成为明星。该研究的合著者Timothy Bromage补充道:“在这个很少被研究的组织中发现记录了一个人生活的个人细节，这将使牙骨质直接成为有关人类生活史进化的许多讨论的中心。”）可知，这一研究会让牙骨质直接成为有关人类生活史进化的许多讨论的中心。这个研究具有重要性。故选D项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。
40、根据文章第一段“A new study suggests our teeth tell a lot more about us than just how often we brush. In fact, our teeth may record any experience thats made a meaningful influence in our lives.”（一项新的研究表明，我们的牙齿能告诉我们更多关于我们的信息，而不仅仅是我们刷牙的频率。事实上，我们的牙齿可以记录下任何对我们的生活产生重大影响的经历。）可知，本文讲述一项对牙齿的新研究。研究结果告诉我们牙齿可以记录下任何对我们
41、的生活产生重大影响的经历。故B项“牙齿：一种看历史的新方式”符合题意。故选B项。CSome of the worlds most significant problems never hit headlines. One example comes from agriculture. Food riots and hunger make news. But the trend lying behind these matters is rarely talked about. This is the decline in the growth in yields of some of the
42、worlds major crops. A new study by the University of Minnesota and McGill University in Montreal looks at where, and how far, this decline is occurring.The authors take a vast number of data points for the four most important crops: rice, wheat corn and soybeans. They find that on between 24% and 39
43、% of all harvested areas, the improvement in yields that took place before the 1980s slowed down in the 1990s and 2000s.There are two worrying features of the slowdown. One is that it has been particularly sharp in the worlds most populous countries, India and China. Their ability to feed themselves
44、 has been an important source of relative stability both within the countries and on world food markets. That self-sufficiency cannot be taken for granted if yields continue to slow down or reverse.Second, yield growth has been lower in wheat and rice than in corn and soya beans. This is problematic
45、 because wheat and rice are more important as foods, accounting for around half of all calories consumed. Corn and soybeans are more important as feed grains. The authors note that “we have preferentially focused our crop improvement efforts on feeding animals and cars rather than on crops that feed
46、 people and are the basis of food security in much of the world.”The report qualifies the more optimistic findings of another new paper which suggests that the world will not have to dig up a lot more land for farming in order to feed 9 billion people in 2050, as the Food and Agriculture Organizatio
47、n has argued.Instead, it says, thanks to slowing population growth, land currently ploughed up for crops might be able to revert to forest or wilderness. This could happen. The trouble is that the forecast assumes continued improvements in yields, which may not actually happen.8. What does the autho
48、r try to draw attention to?A. Food riots and hunger in the world.B. News headlines in the leading media.C. The decline of the grain yield growth.D. The food supply in populous countries.9. Why does the author mention India and China in particular?A. Their self-sufficiency is vital to the stability o
49、f world food markets.B. Their food yields have begun to decrease sharply in recent years.C. Their big populations are causing worldwide concerns.D. Their food self-sufficiency has been taken for granted.10. What does the new study by the two universities say about recent crop improvement efforts?A.
50、They fail to produce the same remarkable results as before the 1980s.B. They contribute a lot to the improvement of human food production.C. They play a major role in guaranteeing the food security of the world.D. They focus more on the increase of animal feed than human food grains.11. What does th
51、e Food and Agriculture Organization say about world food production in the coming decades?A. The growing population will greatly increase the pressure on world food supplies.B. The optimistic prediction about food production should be viewed with caution.C. The slowdown of the growth in yields of ma
52、jor food crops will be reversed.D. The world will be able to feed its population without increasing farmland.【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. D【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了世界上一些主要农作物产量增长正在下降，列举了四种最重要的作物的产量提高在90年代和21世纪初的减缓情况，说明了其两个令人担忧的特征。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Some of the worlds most significant problems never hit headlin
53、es. One example comes from agriculture. Food riots and hunger make news. But the trend lying behind these matters is rarely talked about. This is the decline in the growth in yields of some of the worlds major crops.(世界上一些最严重的问题从未上过头条。以农业为例。粮食骚乱和饥饿成为新闻。但隐藏在这些问题背后的趋势很少被谈论。那就是是世界上一些主要农作物产量增长的下降)”可知，作者
54、试图引起读者注意的是粮食产量增长的下降。故选C。【9题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“One is that it has been particularly sharp in the worlds most populous countries, India and China. Their ability to feed themselves has been an important source of relative stability both within the countries and on world food markets.(其中之一是，在世界人口最多的国家印度和中国
55、，这种情况尤为严重。他们养活自己的能力一直是各国国内和世界粮食市场相对稳定的一个重要来源)”可推知，作者特别提到印度和中国是为了说明他们的自给自足对世界粮食市场的稳定至关重要。故选A。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“The authors note that “we have preferentially focused our crop improvement efforts on feeding animals and cars rather than on crops that feed people and are the basis of food security in
56、much of the world.”(作者们指出，“我们优先把我们的作物改良努力集中在喂养动物和汽车上，而不是喂养人类的作物，这些作物是世界上大部分地区粮食安全的基础。”)”可知，这两所大学的新研究认为，最近的作物改良工作更关注动物饲料的增加而不是人类粮食的增加。故选D。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The report qualifies the more optimistic findings of another new paper which suggests that the world will not have to dig up a lot more land f
57、or farming in order to feed 9 billion people in 2050, as the Food and Agriculture Organization has argued.(该报告对另一篇新论文的更为乐观的发现进行了补充，该论文认为，到2050年，世界不必像粮农组织所主张的那样，为了养活90亿人口而开垦大量的耕地)”可推知，粮农组织认为，未来几十年，世界将能够在不增加耕地的情况下养活它的人口。故选D。D“Father, do you see Mother in your dreams?” the young girl asks. “You know so
58、metimes I do.” “Mother comes to see me a lot, you know.

She told me every day,” the child mentions cheerfully. “I saw her crying sometimes when she read your letters.”“Did she make you promise to look after me?” She inquires. “She asked me to take care
64、of you.”“You promised her, didnt you?” “Yes, I did.”“It is nice out here, isnt it? Mother would have been very happy here.”She talks with some authority. Her father remains silent. A smile comes to his weary brow. He nods his head.“Mother wanted me to give you something. I think now the time is righ

She wanted me to give it to you.” He takes the book and holds it in his trembling hands, “Thank you.”“Mother said you would understand things better.” “Wise woman, your mother.”He places the book on the table as
66、 he gets up. The girl gets up and wraps herself around her father. “I love you.” she looks up at his face.He picks her up and hugs her. “I love you, too.” His voice trembles. “Its okay, Father. We have each other now and mother is in both of us.” He kisses her head. “Time you went to bed,” her fathe
67、r softly says.He puts her down and she scampers off to get washed and ready for bed.Clearing up everything he checks on his daughter. She is in bed waiting for her good night kiss. He tucks her in and bids her goodnight.Just as he is to leave she tells him. “Mother told me she adopted me when I was
68、a baby.” He stands at her bedroom door. Words fail him. Yes, he knew she was adopted.“I am really lucky for being loved by my parents, even if I am not really theirs.” “You trying to bring on the water works?” he tells her.She giggles, “Goodnight, Father. I love you.” “Love you, too.”His face lights
69、 up as he wipes his dampened eyes.The door closes and the child falls asleep dreaming of her mother.Sitting outside he picks up the diary and opens it and reads the first line: “I love you, my dearest, if only things could have been different”12.
