To the researcher39。s astonishment, the trained archerfish were able to recall the learned image almost 81% of the time. And this accuracy improved to 86% when the researchers made the identification even harder, by replacing the colored photos with a set of black and white images and hiding the shape of the head. The results of the study suggest that though having tiny brains, archerfish may have developed high visual discrimination abilities. While it is contrary to the previous theory that a sophisticated brain is necessary to recognize human faces, the researchers believe they do not recognize faces by recalling plex facial information like gender and identity, but more likely by discriminating between detailed patterns. Even so, the fact that these archerfish could “remember” those faces demonstrates that they have an impressive memory for details that lasts much longer than the originallythought 3 seconds! This is not the first time researchers have realized how “smart” fish are. Previous studies have shown that fish can recognize those fish they have “socialized” with previously, and even recall plex threedimensional maps of their surroundings.（1）What is the purpose of the study?

A.They could get these images easily.B.Archerfish got tired of color images.C.They wanted to make the task more difficult.D.These images wouldn39。t get ruined by water.（3）What conclusion did researchers draw in the study? A.Archerfish have a 3second memory.B.Archerfish could distinguish detailed patterns.C.Archerfish have a special form of munication.D.Archerfish could remember plex facial information.（4）What can we infer from the text? A.Fish are social animals.B.Fish are as clever as humans.C.Fish are able to tell different shapes.D.The results shocked the researchers.【答案】（1）C（2）C（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了科學家對噴水魚做的實驗，實驗表明魚也很“聰明”，它們沒有復雜的大腦但是卻有辨認面孔的能力。(1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段做的“While your pet fish may appear to be unaware of your presence, chances are that it knows you extremely well and can probably even identify you from a crowd of human faces!”和第二段做的“To test if this was accurate, some scientists decided to study archerfish(噴水魚).”可知這項研究的目的是證明噴水魚可以認出人臉，故選C。(2)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段做的“And this accuracy improved to 86% when the researchers made the identification even harder, by replacing the colored photos with a set of black and white images and hiding the shape of the head.”可知研究人員使用黑白圖像是為了增加這項任務的難度，故選C。(3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段做的“Even so, the fact that these archerfish could ‘remember’ those faces demonstrates that they have an impressive memory for details that lasts much longer than the originally thought 3 seconds!”可推知噴水魚可以辨別精細的圖案，故選B。(4)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段做的“To the researcher39。s astonishment, the trained archerfish were able to recall the learned image almost 81% of the time.”可知研究結(jié)果令研究人員非常吃驚，故選D?！军c評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇科普類閱讀，考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 I visited Copenhagen for the first time last Easter. As a student，I39。m always strapped for cash，so I assumed I could only afford to breathe the air — but luckily everything about Copenhagen is breathtaking. I was staying in an Airbnb, and rented a bike so I could cover more ground. One of the first places I visited was the Rundetaarn, or “round tower” built in the 17th century as an astronomical observatory. It has an equestrian staircase (a wide set of stairs big enough for horses to use) that went on and on. As I was going up, I stopped to visit the tower39。s library hall. At the top, there39。s a glass platform that gives a view 80foot straight down, as well as a bell loft. Luckily, the views over Copenhagen from the top were well worth the climb. After ing down, I hiked up to the Kastellet Fortress to see the famous Little Mermaid statue. Taking a photo with her was almost impossible with all the tourists crowding around—but sitting there and hearing the lapping waves of the deep blue Baltic Sea, waiting for the sun to set, was an unforgettable and calming experience. The next day, I visited the Glyptotek art museum, exploring the grand exhibits. I looked into the marble eyes of many Roman gods，and walked down dimly lit staircases to see mummies from Egypt. Before I unwillingly boarded the train back to the airport, I told myself that I must visit again—to experience the thrills of Tivoli Gardens, try more of the street food and everything else from this amazing city.（1）Why did the author rent a bike?
