For example, people who are bilingual (雙語的) are more likely to recall an experience if reminded in the language in which that event occurred. Our childhood languages, learned in the middle of passionate emotion, bee filled with deep feeling. By parison, languages acquired late in life, especially if they are learned through limited interactions in the classroom or dully delivered over puter screens and headphones, enter our minds lacking the emotionality that is present for their native speakers.（1）What does this question in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. An alternative explanation is that differences arise between native and foreign tongues because our childhood languages are filled with greater emotions than are those learned in more academic settings. As a result, moral judgments made in a foreign language are less filled with the emotional reactions that surface when we use a language learned in childhood. Why does it matter whether we judge morality in our native language or a foreign one? According to one explanation, such judgments involve two separate and peting ways of thinking173。volunteers were presented with a moral dilemma known as the trolley problem: imagine that a runaway trolley is moving quickly toward a group of five people standing on the tracks, unable to move. You are next to a switch that can move the trolley to a different set of tracks, therefore sparing the five people, but resulting in the death of one who is standing on the side tracks. Do you pull the switch? Psychologists who study moral judgments have bee very interested in this question. The findings of several recent studies suggest that when people are faced with moral dilemmas (困境), they do indeed respond differently when considering them in a foreign language than when using their native tongue.more confident in English, more relaxed in French, more emotional in Czech. Is it possible that, along with these differences, my moral pass (指南針) also points in somewhat different directions depending on the language I39。 Like many other people who speak more than one language, I often have the sense that I39。 【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，是一篇科技類閱讀，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?？v觀全文可知,文章主要講Rod Rainey用古老的方法代替?zhèn)鹘y(tǒng)的輪機(jī)進(jìn)行潮汐發(fā)電,打破River Severn不適宜潮汐發(fā)電的舊思想。故選B。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的Engineers and governments have been toying with the idea since at least 1925.和最后一段中的Environmentalists also worry that any plant would change the tides, making life harder for wildlife.可知,工程師對(duì)潮汐電站的想法漫不經(jīng)心,環(huán)境主義者擔(dān)心它會(huì)給海洋生物帶來危險(xiǎn),所以最初人們對(duì)潮汐發(fā)電站都是不支持的。故選A。根據(jù)第一段中的Its tidal range, the difference in depth between high and low tides, of around 15 metres is among the largest in the world.它的潮汐差,即最低和最高潮汐的深度差,是大約15米,位居世界首位。而名叫Rod Rainey的工程師最近想到了解決問題的辦法,雖然用的是過去的科技,但在輪上做了很大改進(jìn),這樣在保證海洋生物和環(huán)境安全的同時(shí)也可大量發(fā)電。s the best tittle for the text? invented turbines.39。Its power plant makes life harder for wildlife.（2）What was people39。It has the largest tidal range in the world.C.s wheels. Thirty metres high and sixty wide, they would be made from ordinary steel. Two hundred and fifty of them, along with the supporting structures, would be floated into place and secured to the seabed, creating a line 15km long. Together, they could supply power at an avenge ate of 4GW. That is about as much as two biggish nuclear power stations would manage. Substituting one of the wheels with a set of locks would provide a shipping channel about twice the width of Panama Canal, permitting upstream ports such as Avonmouth and Cardiff to continue operating.（1）What is special about the mouth of the River Seven? A. An engineer called Rod Rainey thinks he has a way around both problems. He plans to replace the conventional turbines of previous plans with a much older technology. Specifically, he plans to span (橫跨) the river mouth with a line of water wheels. This is a design that dates back to the early days of the Industrial Revolution. Examples can be found fixed to the sides of old watermills (水磨). Compared with solar and wind energy, which are booming, tidal (潮汐的) power is a loser in the clean energy petition. But if you did want to build a tidal power station, there are few better sites than the mouth of the River Severn, in Britain. Its tidal range, the difference in depth between high and low tides, of around 15 metres is among the largest in the world. 【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，是一篇環(huán)保類閱讀，要求考生準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，概括歸納，從而選出正確答案。綜上可知，本文講述的是被污染的the Buffalo River的恢復(fù)。s water quality has restored，but it is still an ongoing issue，as sewage(污水)can overflow into the river after storms.
