A.Friendly.（2）What39。 Some years ago, MichelAndre found himself staring at the body of a dead whale on a beach in the Canary Islands. It was obvious that the animal had been struck violently by a ship——but why? Only later, after surveying the whales which lived in the area and measuring the increase of sound pollution from ships did it bee clear that there was a link.根據(jù)第二段中的“According to Smithsonian Magazine, around 20 percent of people in the world are especially tasty to mosquitoes.

As far as we know, it has never been found in Greenland. We think this is the first time anyone has reported it in ancient deposits or modern lakes there, Axford said. We were really surprised to see how far north it migrated (遷徙). 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。由此可知Brown博士的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，演員在表演時大腦活動是不同的，故選B。A research on the brain activity of actors.D.C. brain activity is more active when they are in character.（3）How did Philip Davis react to the research?

A.Introduce HIV to the public.（2）In which way will the rice be used at the lowest cost? A. The study reports the newlydeveloped rice produces proteins that attach directly to the HIV virus. This process prevents the virus from mixing with human cells. The scientists say it can remove the effect of the virus and block its spreading. The Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS reports that worldwide, nearly 37 million people were living with HIV in 2017. The organization says the largest number of those are in developing countries. Nearly twothirds of HIV cases are in Africa. Now there is no cure for HIV/AIDS though there have been developments in oral drug treatments to slow the progression of the disease.By attaching it to the HIV virus.D.A social webpage.D. （2）考查細節(jié)理解。 （4）考查推理判斷。s head has always been something of a puzzle.
