A.B.C.D.Young people are more energetic in their life.B.Old people have fewer things to do than young people.D.Nerves and NeuronsB.The Older, the FasterD. （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選A。根據(jù)第一段中的You39。故選B。根據(jù)第一段中的最后兩句可知，年輕時之所以覺得日子似乎更長是因為大腦能夠以“快速射擊”的方式處理更多信息。所以說，相較于老年人，年輕人的大腦花費更少的時間來處理信息。 （4）考查主旨大意。C項正好與主旨句呼應(yīng)，故選C。3．犇犇閱讀理解 d arrive home to an icecold house. And that would mean turning on the heating and waiting. It39。t get cold to the bone.t have to be so challenging any more. Technology, engine ring and design have advanced giving us new solutions to old problems. It means dealing with winter needn39。 With a smart thermostat (溫度自動調(diào)節(jié)器), our homes can be warm when we need them to be. Many models feature smartphone apps that allow you to control temperature remotely, so we can warm up the house before we arrive home. According to , Tado39。leans39。 Clothes have been given an upgrade, too. Electronic thermal jackets, sweaters and coats heat up when you turn them on. What better way to keep warm in the dead of winter? At the touch of a button, or through an app on our phones, the clothing generates heat from elements placed inside. Many models offer three levels of heating which stay warm for over 12 hours. . For many, the thought of winter used to be enough to make their blood run cold. But using technology, life needn39。s no reason why winter can39。Fix an air conditioner.B.Run a lot.D.The equipment placed inside the clothing produces heat.B.The thermostat heat up automatically when the temperature is low.D.Tado39。with the inbuilt speaker and microphone, Beanies and Earmuffs users can have a phone callC.Bluetooth technology is used in the clothing for the head（4）What39。A Smart ThermostatA Modern winterC.An unpleasant winter【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）C（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，在科技并不發(fā)達(dá)的過去，人們可能會為如何在嚴(yán)寒天氣里更好地保暖而倍感困擾。人們憑借科學(xué)技術(shù)發(fā)明了各式各樣的防寒方法。 （1）考查詞義猜測。你外出時必須穿得暖和一點。故判斷出第1段中帶下劃線的單詞bundle up是多穿點衣服。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。所以電子保暖服裝工作的原理是安裝在衣服內(nèi)部的電子元件產(chǎn)生熱量。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。t have to be so challenging any more. Technology, engine ring and design have advanced giving us new solutions to old problems可知，幸運的是，事情不需要再這么有挑戰(zhàn)性了。所以C選項科技無法讓冬天變得不那么難熬不符合短文說明的內(nèi)容。 （4）考查主旨大意。現(xiàn)如今，每到嚴(yán)冬時節(jié)，雖然溫度驟降、天氣惡劣，但隨著各類智能保暖產(chǎn)品的問世，冬天也能變得舒適宜人。比如，用智能電子設(shè)備調(diào)節(jié)屋內(nèi)和衣物的溫度；使用無線科技制造會自動發(fā)熱的服飾。故B選項讓現(xiàn)代科技溫暖你的冬日符合題意。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科普類閱讀，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。 A tiny clue found in ancient deposits has unlocked big secrets about Greenland39。 Although researchers have long known these two periods—the early Holocene and Last Interglacial—experienced warming in the Arctic, the mix of fly species shows that Greenland was even warmer than previously thought. As far as we know, it has never been found in Greenland. We think this is the first time anyone has reported it in ancient deposits or modern lakes there, Axford said. We were really surprised to see how far north it migrated (遷徙).s sensitivity to warming, by testing and improving models of climate and ice sheet behaviour. Those models could then improve predictions of how Greenland39。 People might be surprised to see how today39。s ice sheets. However, now researchers believe northern Greenland39。 Finding lake deposits older than about 10,000 years, however, has been historically very difficult in Greenland. To measure these ancient temperatures, researchers look to ice cores (冰核) and lake deposits. Since ice and lake deposits form by a gradual buildup on annual layers of snow or mud, these cores contain history of the past. By looking through the layers, researchers can obtain climate clues from centuries ago.（1）Why are the remains of flies mentioned in the first two paragraphs? serve as evidence that there is still life in the Northwest Greenland. were one of the many ancient lives that were left in the Greenland mud. are indicators that Greenland was much warmer than previously thought. help the researchers realize that there was once a warm period in the Arctic.（2）The new information about Greenland is important because______________. have no idea how to measure Greenland39。s response to warming should be more sensitive to the changes in the ice in Greenland is uncertain how fast the Earth changes with manmade global warming（3）Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? is easier for today39。就在廣闊的格陵蘭冰原的西北邊緣，研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)了在最后一個冰河時代幸存下來的湖泥。 （1）考查推理判斷。可知，在前兩段中提到蒼蠅的殘骸是為了證明格陵蘭島的溫度比之前認(rèn)為的要高得多。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。s sensitivity to warming, by testing and improving models of climate and ice sheet behaviour. ”可知，這些新信息可以幫助研究人員更好地測量格陵蘭島對氣候變暖的敏感性。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。可知，格陵蘭島覆蓋了這個北極國家的80%，擁有相當(dāng)于全球海平面20英尺的冰?！惫蔬xD。本文通過最新的發(fā)現(xiàn)——最后一個冰河時代幸存下來的湖泥及湖泥中的蒼蠅殘骸及其相關(guān)研究說明格陵蘭島之前可能更暖和。故選A。5．閱讀理解 s history, which makes the city always be a fascinating place for tourists.
