【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 0。B.Prevent itself from being blind.C.Stop occasionally to spot the prey again.D.Try to run as fast as it can.【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）B（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了對動物時間感知的研究。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“According to a team of researchers，an animal39。s ability to perceive（感知）time is linked to their pace of life.”可知，據(jù)一組研究人員稱，動物感知時間的能力與它們的生活節(jié)奏有關(guān)，由此可知，文中提到的這個研究是關(guān)于動物的時間感知的，故選D。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“the importance of time perception in animals where the ability to perceive time in a very short time may be the difference between life and death for fast moving creatures.”可知，對于能快速移動的動物而言，在極短的時間內(nèi)感知時間的能力可能是生與死的區(qū)別，由此可知，Kevin Healy說的意思是快速移動的動物的生存依賴于它們對時間的感知能力，故選A。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“The research showed flies ‘observe motion in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve，’which allows them to avoid being hit.”可知，家蠅觀察物體運動的時間比我們?nèi)搜鬯苓_到的時間要短，這使得它們能夠避免被擊中；再結(jié)合第五段中的“but they can make good decisions very quickly.”可知，它們可以很快做出好的決定，也就是說它們可以盡快處理收到的信息，故選B。 （4）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“the tiger beetle（虎甲蟲）runs faster than its eyes can keep up，basically being blind，which requires it to stop periodically to reevaluate its prey39。s（獵物）position”可知，虎甲蟲的移動比眼睛快，基本上是盲目的，這就要求它不時地停下來，重新評估獵物的位置，由此可知，為了抓住移動的獵物，虎甲蟲需要不時地停下來確定獵物的位置，故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。4．閱讀理解 New Jersey Botanical Garden Membership It39。s easy to join New Jersey Botanical Garden (NJBG) Membership online, by phone or by mail.

Carbon capture isn39。t new, but previous methods call for the gas to be pressed into liquid and then injected underground. Widespread usage of that technology has been locked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks. Instead, in a study published in Nature Communications, the group details their sustainable and costeffective plan for transforming CO2 into coal. This new process involves a liquid metal catalyst(催化劑)that is efficient in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is dissolved in a container with some liquid. Once electricity charge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and stored. What makes this particularly unique is that the entire process can occur at room temperature. Previous experiments have only shown a gas to solid conversion at extremely high temperature, which made it impossible on a large scale. Now, the researchers are hoping that their work will be used to create even further when it es to carbon storage. In an interesting side benefit, the solid carbon also works as an electrode(焊條), which opens up a world of possibilities. A side benefit of the process is that the carbon can hold electrical charge, being a super battery, so it could potentially be used as a part in future vehicles, explains Dr. Dorna Estrafilzadeh, a researcher. The process also produces fuel as a byproduct, which could also have industrial applications.（1）What ca
