In fact, in 2018, 7,250 kilometers (4,505 miles) of writing tests on such pens were carried out on ballpoint pens, gel pens(中性筆), and rollers to make sure they worked to the highest standard.That39。s website, under their FAQs (frequently asked questions), it quite clearly states: The reason that some BIC174。 s one of those things that e up from time to time, like what would happen if you attack Yellowstone with a nuclear weapon (not much, as it turns out).t choke to death.

But those few minutes showed these geese really could fly over the top of Mount Everest.但是否能讓這種鵝飛8小時爬上珠穆朗瑪峰尚不清楚。人們認(rèn)為這是不可能的;以及 Now researchers who raised 19 of the geesenamed for the black stripes on the backs of their headshave shown the birds really fly so high.現(xiàn)在研究人員飼養(yǎng)了這種鵝,他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這些鵝真的飛得很高。 (1)考查推理判斷。A science report.【答案】 (1)B(2)C(3)D(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,登山者報告說看到一只長頸鵝翱翔在珠穆朗瑪峰的頂峰,為了確認(rèn)其真實性,研究人員養(yǎng)了18只這種鵝,在大型風(fēng)洞中訓(xùn)練它們飛行。A travel brochure.A climbing guide.A science fiction.Whether they are willing to wear backpacks and face masks.D.Whether they have super hearts and lungs.B.The geese could live through the lowest concentration of oxygen.D.It was carried out at very high altitude.B.To observe them flying through the wind tunnel.D.To test the flying height and speed of them.B. Although well trained, the birds were only willing to stay in the air a few minutesor less when wearing their backpacks and flying at 6ihigh altitudes. So it39。 The wind tunnel experiments showed that when the concentration of oxygen was at its lowestlike the 7% found on top of Mount Everest versus 21% at sea level—the geese39。 The team trained the youngsters to fly in a large wind tunnel wearing backpacks and face masks full of sensors that recorded their heart rate. blood oxygen levels, temperature, and metabolic rate—how many calories they burned per hour. The researchers simulated(模擬)10w, medium, and highaltitude conditions by altering the concentration of oxygen supplied to face masks worn by each goose as it flew in the tunnel.6.閱讀理解 第二段中的“Now, researchers have said actors show different patterns of brain activity depending on whether they are in character or not.”現(xiàn)在,研究人員表示,演員的大腦活動模式不同,取決于他們是否扮演角色,是全文的主題句,結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容,可知這篇文章主要介紹了一項對于演員大腦活動的研究,故選C。由此推斷出Philip Davis對這項研究持懷疑態(tài)度,故選B。 to be someone — it involves embodying (體現(xiàn)) the text and language.”然而,利物浦大學(xué)教授Philip Davis對這項研究并不以為然。 (3)考查推理判斷。研究小組發(fā)現(xiàn),當(dāng)演員在扮演角色時,他們會使用一些第三人稱知識或?qū)巧耐茢唷?(2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 (1)考查推理判斷。A report of the cooperation of scientists and actors.【答案】 (1)A(2)B(3)B(4)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了一項對于演員大腦活動的研究。A play written by Shakespeare.C.He advocated it.(4)What is the text mainly about?

A. The team said they also found additional reduction in activity in two regions of the prefrontal cortex (前額皮質(zhì)) linked to the sense of self, pared with when the actors were responding as themselves. Each actor was asked to respond to different questions, based on two different premises (前提). In one, they were asked for their own perspective, while in the other, they were asked to respond as though they were either Romeo or Juliet. Brown and colleagues report how 15 actors, mainly theatre students, were trained to take on a Shakespeare role — either Romeo or Juliet — in a theatre workshop. They were then invited into the laboratory, where their brains were scanned in a series of experiments. Dr Steven Brown, from McMaster University in Canada, said, It looks like when you are acting, you are suppressing (壓制) yourself。s head has always been something of a puzzle.5.犇犇閱讀理解 本文介紹亞歷山大技巧的對于矯正身體的作用以及其發(fā)明者,故可知在介紹亞歷山大技巧的作用,故選C。他做了分析,意識到自己的姿勢不正確,因此致力于改善姿勢,結(jié)果很好,故可知,他通過矯正姿勢,解決了自己的聲音問題,故選A。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Frederick Alexander, an Australian actor born in 1869, found in his youth that he had vocal (聲音的) problems during performances.
