A.Because it can highlight clients39。Consequence.（3）Why do some lawyers ask their clients to wear glasses in court? A.Link.Wearing glasses can make people cleverer.D.Glasses are also used to show someone is intelligent in movies and on TV. Ideas about people who wear glasses have begun to shift. 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. GQ magazine said people who wear glasses for fashion are trying too hard to look smart and hip (時(shí)髦的). However, that hasn39。Forget genes though. Plenty of proof shows wearing glasses makes people think you are more intelligent, even if you do not need glasses. 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. He said sometimes there has been a huge amount of proof showing that people he was defending broke the law. He had them wear glasses and they weren39。It is important to remember these are connections which are not proven causes. Scientists call this correlation. Just because something is connected to something else does not mean one of those things caused the other. And it39。 由此可知本文屬于科普文章。 （4）考查推理判斷。 （3）考查推理判斷。s heart rate and frequency of wing beats remained the same even as their metabolic rate dropped....the researchers report today in elife.

It was thought impossible. 報(bào)道說，一名登山者看到一只斑頭鵝飛過珠穆朗瑪峰。D.C.B.Whether they can manage to fly 8 hours to climb over Mount Everest.（4）Where does the text most probably e from? A.It shows the geese could fly at high altitude for long.（3）What still puzzles scientists about the geese? A.To see how many calories they burned per hour.（2）What can we learn from the wind tunnel experiment? A.s not clear whether these adaptations alone are what make it possible to fly the 8 hours it takes to climb over Mount Everest. But those few minutes showed these geese really could fly over the top of Mount Everest.（1）Why did the researchers raise 19 barheaded geese and train them? A.s heart rate and frequency of wing beats remained the same even as their metabolic rate dropped. Somehow, the birds managed to cool down their bloodthe measured blood temperature dropped so it could take in more oxygen, the researchers report today in eLife. This cooling likely helps pensate for the very thin air, the team says. Birds already have a better heart and lungs than mammals for sustained physical activity. And researchers knew that barheaded geese have even larger, thinner lungs that let them breathe more deeply and an even bigger heart to pump more oxygen to muscles than other birds. （4）考查推理判斷。運(yùn)行現(xiàn)金經(jīng)濟(jì)背后的基礎(chǔ)架構(gòu)需要付出高昂的成本,這些基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施包括自動(dòng)取款機(jī),載有紙幣的貨車,接受硬幣的出納員。瑞典和中國的共同點(diǎn)是現(xiàn)金支付減少,電子支付比例上升,由此可推斷作者提到瑞典和中國是為了說明數(shù)字支付正成為一種不可阻擋的趨勢。結(jié)合上下文,可知某些富裕國家比如瑞典正在減少現(xiàn)金支付,推廣不用紙幣或硬幣的支付方式,也就是電子支付方式。indifferent【答案】 （1）D（2）C（3）B（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，富裕國家正在減少現(xiàn)金支付,現(xiàn)金正在因?yàn)樾枨蟮仍蛳?。negativefinancial firms want to abandon oldfashioned customers（4）The author39。.

In Sweden the number of retail cash transaction per person has fallen by 80% in the past ten years. America is perhaps a decade behind. Outside the rich world, cash is still king. But even there its leading role is being challenged. In China digital payments rose from 4% of all payments in 2012 to 34% in 2017.他說，微笑可能是幫助心臟的一種方式?？芍?，Chockalingam博士認(rèn)為微笑可以使我們放松，從而有利于我們的健康。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“When we smile, the brain wiring changes. The chemicals that are released are more positive.”當(dāng)我們微笑時(shí)，大腦的線路會(huì)發(fā)生變化。s heart health.（1）Which of the following agrees with Dr. Chockalingam39。Dr. Chockalingam says a smile may be one way to help. He tells his patients to smile 20 times an hour. To some, that might seem like a lot of smiling. Or some might even feel foolish ... smiling for seemingly no reason. But a smile does not involve drugs. It is not invasive like a surgical operation. It is free and it has no bad side effects. Experts note that an unhealthy lifestyle can put you at great risk of heart disease and stroke. So doctors urge us to eat healthy foods, get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. But there is something else you can do. And it is free and easy. Smile! 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Many species can understand the difference between quantities and use this to search for food, make decisions and solve problems. But numerical cognition, such as exact number and arithmetic operations, requires a more plex level of processing.”許多物種都能理解數(shù)量之間的差異，并以此來尋找食物、做出決定和解決問題。根據(jù)第五段中的“If math doesn39?！笨芍?，RMIT大學(xué) 的此前的研究表明，一些靈長類動(dòng)物、鳥類、嬰兒甚至蜘蛛都可以加減法。A Discovery About the Tiny Brain of BeesB.Bees can recogize the exact number.B.requires addition and subtraction two plex processingB.Longterm rules and short term working memory.C.t require a massive brain, there might also be new ways for us to include interactions of both longterm rules and working memory in designs to improve rapid AI learning of new problems,” said Dyer.
