I hear you.：表示高中时这两项课程已经让她觉得很无聊，教授随即表示他理解女生的意思。所以这里教授说的这句话是强调他对说的话的理解，选 A。Q23正确：B定位原文：Probably back in some previous biology course you learnedt snakesevolved from lizards, andt the

26、snakes werent venomous and then along camemore advanced snakes, the venomouakes other non-venomouakes.See, the basic theory about snake evolution has been challenged by a recent studyrevealed a whole new understanding of evolutionary relationship for reptilest：开篇整个第一段都是在说蛇的分类，接着讲了一个关于蛇进化的新的理论，然后文章的后

27、面部分讲述了一个如何来证明这个理论的，所以综合选项，应该是B。正确Q24正确：C定位原文：Professor: . Then there is non-venomous snakes like constrictors ands. Another family oakes, the colubrids, dont really fit neyo eithercategory though.

33、不再需要喷了，后面举了 the brown tree snake 这个例子，毒液时，这种技能可能就渐渐所以这里正是为了说明前面教授说的这个进化的理论，选 A。Q28正确：D定位原文：You see, venom alters biological functionshe same way certain drugsdo, and the big benefit of drugs made from snakes venom would bet theyonly certain cells, so maybetll create fewer side effects. Now, it sound
