【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 0。D.Indifferent.【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）A（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了研究發(fā)現(xiàn)戴眼鏡和高智商有關(guān)，文章還指出有些人只是為了追求時尚而戴眼鏡。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“The study showed intelligence can be connected to physical characteristics. One characteristic was eyesight. In out of 10 people who were more intelligent, there was a higher chance they needed glasses.”可知，研究表明，智力與身體特征有關(guān)，其中一個特征就是視力，在10個更聰明的人中，他們需要眼鏡的幾率更高，也就是說戴眼鏡與高智商有關(guān)，故選D。 （2）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“Just because something is connected to something else does not mean one of those things caused the other.”可知，僅僅因為某物與其他事物相聯(lián)系并不意味著其中一個事物導(dǎo)致了另一個事物，這是對畫線詞的解釋說明，因此此處是說重要的是要記住這些都是沒有被證實的原因的聯(lián)系，科學(xué)家稱之為相關(guān)性，由此可知畫線詞詞義為“相關(guān)聯(lián)、聯(lián)系”，故選B。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“A number of studies have found people who wear glasses are seen as smarter, hardworking and honest. Many lawyers use this idea to help win their cases. Lawyer Harvey Solves explained this. Glasses soften their appearance.”可知，許多研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，戴眼鏡的人被視為更聰明、更勤奮、更誠實，眼鏡使他們看起來更溫和，許多律師利用這個想法來幫助他們贏得官司，可知，一些律師讓他們的當(dāng)事人在法庭上戴眼鏡是因為戴上眼鏡有助于塑造一個道德的形象，故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“People who do not need glasses sometimes wear them for fashion only. They want to look worldly or cool. But not everyone is impressed by this idea, though.”可知，不需要眼鏡的人有時戴眼鏡只是為了時尚，他們想顯得酷一些，但并不是每個人都對這個想法印象深刻，可知，對于那些追求時尚而戴眼鏡的人來說，人們的態(tài)度是既有人支持也有人反對，故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。4．閱讀理解 An experimental cleanup device called RemoveDEBRIS has successfully cast a net around a dummy (仿真的) satellite, imitating a technique that could one day collect spaceborne garbage. The test, which was carried out this week, is widely believed to be the first successful demonstration of space cleanup technology, experts told CNN. And it symbolizes an early step toward solving what has already been a critical issue: junk in space. Millions of pieces of junk are turning around in orbit the result of 50 years of space travel and few regulations to keep space clean. At orbital speeds, even a small bit of paint crashing with a satellite can cause critical damage. Various panies have plans to send thousands of new satellites into lowEarth orbit, already the most crowded area. The RemoveDEBRIS experiment is run by a pany and researchers led by the U. K.39。s Surrey Space Center and includes Airbus, Airbusowned Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. and France39。s ArianeGroup. Guglielmo Aglietti, the director of Surrey Space Center, said that an operational version of the RemoveDEBRlS technology would cast a net that remains fastened to the main satellite so the debris can be dragged out of orbit. It could target large pieces of junk, including dead satellites up to 10 meters long. The RemoveDEBRIS satellite will conduct a few more experiments in the ing months, including testing navigation features that could help guide the satellite to a specific piece of debris.Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the HarvardSmithsonian Center for Astrophysics, said the success of this week39。s experiment was exciting, but he cautioned against over publicizing it. There are still enormous barriers to clear before operational cleanup tasks are underway, he said, and the most discouraging is figuring out how to fund such projects. Aglietti, the Surrey professor who helped lead the RemoveDEBRIS project, said The challenge will lie in persuading the relevant authorities to sponsor these tasks. Aglietti said he hopes RemoveDEBRIS will conduct a few cleanup tasks per year, targeting the largest pieces of junk in the most crowded orbits.（1）What is the use of the RemoveDEBRIS satellite?
