A【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了埃博拉病毒爆发于西非,该病毒传播的范围之广、速度之快,危害性极强,科学家们为此持有不同态度。【9题详解】主旨大意题。由文章第一段的“Scientists investigated why Ebola virus is so deadly when it
45、spreads from animals to humans and then from human-to-human contact.”(科学家研究为什么埃博拉病毒从动物传给人,然后人传人时会如此的致命)和“They found thatinitiallythe animal systems were notaffected by the virus, but succeeding transmission(传送) into other animals caused the virus to “hot up” and become more severe.”(他们发现最初动物系统并没有受到这
46、种病毒的影响,但成功传输给其他动物后使得它加剧,变得更加严重)可知,本段主要说明了随着病毒传播范围的逐渐扩大,危害会性逐步加深,故选C。【10题详解】细节理解题。由文章第二段的“The team analyzed the viruses at different stages and were able to identify several changes in its geneticmaterial that were associated with increased disease.”(该小组分析了不同阶段的病毒,并能够识别出与疾病增加相关的遗传物质的几个变化)可知,研究小组得出埃博拉

57、ecific situation.”显然,目光交流应该根据双方的关系和特定场合来进行,故选D。【14题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“In fact, continuous eye contact is confined to lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express.”可知实际上,长时间的相互凝视仅适合情人之间,他们喜欢温柔的对视,用目光来传达言语无法表达的爱意。故选B。【15题详解】主旨大意题
58、。通读全文尤其是根据第一段“Much meaning can be conveyed, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.”我们的眼睛能准确地传达一些信息,所以人们常说,眼睛会说话。所以短文的最佳标题为“眼睛会说话”。故选C项。第二节(共5小题,每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(注意:E涂AB: F 涂AC: G 涂AD )The increasing environmental problems and need fo
