【正文】 he heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.（1）What makes it difficult to know microplastics monly exist in the human body? quality. quantity. shape. size.（2）How did Kieran Cox39。The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, pared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact. Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate the accumulative human exposure to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans39。Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in monly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation (吸入)using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agency39。 s hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year. 5．閱讀理解 由此推知獨一無二的人是具有谷歌精神的人，故選A。s not‘Are you like us?’Bock said.‘We actually look for people who are different，because diversity gives us great ideas.’” 這點被谷歌稱作文化契合度。根據(jù)Googleyness: That39。然后是眼光要犀利，“可以退出來讓別人接管嗎？能夠讓位于別人嗎？可以放棄權(quán)力嗎？”，由此可知依據(jù)谷歌的說法，一個愿意退讓的人是一個合格的領(lǐng)導者，故選C。（3）考查細節(jié)理解。因為這些是能夠通過訓練提高的技能，你練習得越多，就能答得更好。根據(jù)“Brainteasers: Gone are interview questions such as: Why are manhole covers（井蓋)round? or How many golf balls can fit in a school bus?‘Our research tells us those questions are a waste of time,’Bock said‘They39。根據(jù)第二段中的“Experience has taught him there are exceptional kids at many other places, from state schools in California to New York.”可知Bock的意思是經(jīng)驗告訴他，在一些別的地方，比如加利福尼亞或紐約的公立學校中，也會有一些天賦超常的人才，故選A。Being loyal.【答案】（1）A（2）D（3）C（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了比起文憑和學歷，谷歌更看重什么。Being qualified.Being adaptable.Being unique.D.One willing to step aside.B.How much toilet paper is needed to cover Texas?（3）Who is a qualified leader according to Google?

A.TMU putting a lower grade on female applicants to keep a low percentage of women in each class.B.s shock and rage in Japan? A.s premiership (首相任期) is disappointing. Just two members of his 20strong cabinet are women, including Seiko Noda, in charge of women39。 Doctoring has long been a male field. But it is not the only one. Discrimination is mon in banks and trading firms, where stamina (耐力) and loyalty, qualities somehow associated with men, are prized, says Mari Miura, a political scientist at Sophia University. All this embarrasses a government that has promised to make women shine. The policy seems based on the need for more workers rather than on genuine concern for women. Japan has made a lot of noise in recent years about removing the traditional view that women should stay at home while men go out to work. So it was shocking when, on August 7th, Tokyo Medical University (TMU), a distinguished medical school, admitted marking down the test scores of female applicants to keep the ratio of women in each class below 30%. 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇介紹類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案?？芍^眾在買票前應檢查年齡政策。；“Les Miserables .
