27、a science communicator after finishing my Ph.D., so it seemed like a perfect opportunity to improve my communication ability and gain confidence thinking on my feet.（然而，我知道在完成我的博士学位后，我想成为一名科学传播者，所以这似乎是一个很好的机会来提高我的沟通能力和获得自信、才思敏捷。）”可知，作者希望即兴表演班能够帮助提高自己的沟通能力。故选A。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“During our first class
28、, we learned the key concept of improv: “yes, and”. If someone says that rhinos are librarians, for example, then rhinos are librarians. We dont question the logic; we say “yes” and continue with the scene as if nothing is wrong. To do this effectively, we have to avoid second-guessing ourselves. So
29、metimes scenes go in unexpected directions. The best improve happens when performers stay open to different possibilities.（在我们的第一节课上，我们学习了即兴表演的关键概念：“yes, and”。例如，如果有人说犀牛是图书管理员，那么犀牛就是图书管理员。我们不质疑逻辑；我们说“好”，然后继续拍摄，就好像一切正常一样。为了有效地做到这一点，我们必须避免事后怀疑自己。有时场景会朝着意想不到的方向发展。最好的即兴表演是当表演者对不同的可能性保持开放的心态时。）”可知，即兴表演的关
30、键是对不同的可能性保持开放的心态。故选C。【6题详解】词义猜测题。根据第四段划线词前句“An audience member surprised me with a question that didnt grow out of the information I had presented.（一位听众提出了一个让我惊讶的问题，而这个问题并不是基于我所提供的信息。）”和后句“I used that approach, and it helped me find an appropriate answer.(而是采用了这种方法，它帮助我找到了一个合适的答案。)”可知，作者没有因为听众以外的问题而
31、感到困惑。所以perplexed为“困惑的”之意，与confused同义。故选B。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“If I hadnt stayed open to the possibility that the results were real, I would have missed out on the most exciting finding of my Ph.D. program so far.（如果我没有对这些结果是真实的可能性持开放态度，我就会错过我的博士项目迄今为止最令人兴奋的发现。）”可知，即兴表演课教会作者开放性的态度，而正是这种态度，作者的博士研究项目取得了成功
32、。由此推知，即兴表演技能在作者的博士研究上提供了很大帮助。故选D。CAmericans are now allowed to get a COVID-19 vaccine (疫苗). But the process in America is not going as smoothly as some had hoped.

42、nly tested if the vaccine works in adults.( 此外，16岁以下的儿童还不能接种疫苗。这是因为科学家只测试了疫苗是否对成年人有效。)”可知，16岁以下的儿童还没有疫苗可以接种，这是因为科学家只在成年人身上测试了疫苗的有效性；由此可知，疫苗在儿童身上的有效性还没有被测试，所以16岁以下的儿童无法接种COVID-19疫苗。故选D。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“They work like this: volunteers get placed into one of two groups. One group receives the vaccine.
43、 The other group gets a placebo.( 他们是这样工作的:志愿者被分成两组。一组接受疫苗注射。另一组则服用安慰剂。)”可知，临床试验的工作流程是，一组注射疫苗，另一组注射安慰病人的药物。故选A。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Maybe youre the right age to be part of a clinical trial for the COVID-19 vaccine. Why not volunteer For A Vaccine Trial?( 也许你的年龄适合参与COVID-19疫苗的临床试验。为什么不自愿参加疫苗试验?)”以及最后
44、一段“If you want to participate in a trial, you can try to sign up online by just clicking here, clinical trials gov. which lists every clinical trial in the US, including COVID-19 vaccine trials.
