Theplanet'sclimateisconstantlychanging.Theglobalaveragetemperatureiscurrentlyintheregionof15℃.Geologicalandotherevidencesuggeststhat,inthepast,thisaveragemayhavebeenashighas27℃andaslowas7℃.

参考答案

1.attheirownrisk

2.B解析：细节推断题。题干陈述作者认为拥有创造能力的人通常是伟人。第四段指出人人都有创造能力，区分普通人和伟人的标准并非是否具有创造能力，而在于对创造能力的激发和应用。大部分普通人并非不具备创造能力，只是不能很好地发挥出自己的创造潜能而已，因此题干的表述是错误的。

3.consideryouranswersconsideryouranswers解析：细节辨认题。此处问如果遇到文章里列举的杀手锏问题，该怎么办?文章指出，如果你遇到这样的问题要先稍微思考一下你的答案。suchastheselisted即上文列举的问题，故正确答案为consideryouranswers。

4.A解析：由题干关键词allhostagesituations可将答案定位至第一个小标题TheHostageSituation下第一段。...therearesomebasicfactsthatapplytoallhostagesituations，紧接下来的第二、三段第一句中均包含了题干关键词wantssomething和thirdparty，且句意与题干相同，由此证明题干陈述正确。

5.A解析：由第五段第一句话“Tostartwith，theInternetisprofoundlychangingconsumerbehavior．”可知，网络对消费者的购物行为正产生着极其深刻的影响。故该句意思正确。

6.B解析：从第1段“Itisnotsomuch…”可以看出是错的。

7.C解析：第2个小标题B.GlobalWarming下面的第2段提到：Theypredictthatunlessdramaticactionistaken,globaltemperaturewillcontinuetoriseby1.4t05.8Celsiusdegreesoverthenextcentury．其大意是：他们预言除非采取大力行动，否则下世纪全球气温将增高1.4～5.8度。由此可知，作者没有给出一个肯定的说法，因此此题的答案为NG。

8.A解析：第三段前面的部分说，互联网视频浪潮中最时尚的就是用户想上传什么就上传什么，不管是不是从别处盗版来的。最后两句说，最著名的例子就是YouFube，它的最大问题就是它可能是非法的，很难当做生意来做(turnintoabusiness)。无法作为生意，当然也就无法赚钱(hardlygenerateprofit)，而原因当然就是其内容的非法性，故答案为[A]。

9.B解析：根据题干中的信息词globalaveragetemperature和27℃定位到第一个小标题下的第一段，可知地质学和其他方面的证据表明，过去的全球平均温度可能高达27摄氏度，或低至7摄氏度，故该句表述错误。

10.15000squaresmetres15,000squaresmetres解析：如果世界上人均土地面积可以分得50,000平方米，但是可用来耕种粮食的土地平均每人只有15,000平方米。因为五分之一的土地长期被冰雪覆盖，五分之一的土地是沙漠，另有五分之一的土地是高山或者是高原，还有十分之一的土地庄稼无法生长——是岩石。

11.A解析：由题干中necessary可定位到第一个小标题下第六段第一句therearestilltimeswhendogtransportationispreferred和第二句Harshweatherconditionscanmakeflyinghazardous,andcertainterraincanbemoredifficultforsnowmachinestocrossthanfordogs．题干问如今在何种情况下，仍需要sleddogs。根据原文上下文童思，第三句作厂具体说明，该句中harshweatherconditions与A中severeweatherconditions意思一致，故选A。

12.theGrandPremiotheGrandPremio解析：参见本文最后一句：The42-footpaperboardGeodesicwasinstalled...andcameawaywiththehighestaward，theGrandPremio．

13.nosummericeatallnosummericeatall解析：根据题干中的信息词U.S.NationalSnowandIceDataCenter和60years定位到第四个小标题下的第二段，可知从美国国家雪冰数据中心的科学家那里得知，海上冰的覆盖率在逐年降低，他们统计出缩减率现在是每十年缩减大约8%，也就是说不到60年，北冰洋上就没有夏冰了，由此可得答案。

14.C解析：由题干measureandanalyzeintelligence定位到第二个小标题下首段第三、四句Anentirefieldofstudy，knownaspsychometrics,...Butevenwithinthatfield,expertsdon'talwaysagreeonexactlywhatitisorhowbesttoanalyzeit.(有一个被称作心理测试学的学科专门研究和测试智商。但即使在这个领域内部，专家们也不能就智商到

15.B解析：细节题。由题目中的satellitetelevision和radiofrequency找到小标题TheOverallSystem下第二段最后一句DigitalbroadcastsatellitetransmitsprogrammingintheKufrequencyrange(12GHzto14GHz).(数字传播卫星在Ku波段12兆赫兹到14兆赫兹传播节目。)所以答案是B。

16.stableandrigid/strongandrigidstableandrigid/strongandrigid解析：参见本文第六段第二句：Therectanglewouldfoldupandbeunstablebutthetrianglewithstandsthepressureandismuchmorerigid—infactthetriangleistwiceasstrong．

17.persistentworkplacenegativitypersistentworkplacenegativity解析：根据关键词employeemorale查读文章第一段第一句Nothingaffectsemployeemoralemoreadverselythanpersistentworkplacenegativity．

18.A解析：本题定位信息是twice，涉及到internallydisplacedpersons和refugees数量的比较，从而锁定文章第三段。该段首句提到Today，thereareanestimated30millioninternallydisplacedpeopleintheworld—doublethenumberofrefugees。题干表述与文章事实相符，因此答案为Y。

19.A解析：参见文章第2段第1句：Whenintroducedintoafavorableenvironmentwithanabundanceofresources，asmallpopulationmayundergogeometric，orexponentialgrowth．

20.C解析：文中并未说马克.吐温通过收集和出售可可粉赚了一大笔钱，而是说他计划着通过这种方式发财(Heplannedtomakeafortunebycollectingandsellingcocoa.)。

21.A解析：M:Seathatmanovertherefacingthewindow?HecomesineveryFridaynightandhejustsitsthereforhours.

W:It'sodd,butthereisn'tmuchwecandoaslongasheorderssomething.

Q:Whatdoesthewomanimply?

解答此题的关键是把否定表达(thereisn'tmuchwecando...)转换成肯定表达(shouldwaitpatiently)，故选[A]。对话中并没有提到男士的年龄，[D]中的old与odd音近形近，容易误听。对话中只说到提供服务，并没有说服务要迅速(immediately)，故[C]错。

22.A解析：选项都和植物有关。男士建议女士不要把植物放在角落，而是放到窗前。意思是让植物多接受日光。

23.lightslights解析：此处需要—个名词。trafficlights指“交通灯”。空白处前有asetof，light要用复数形式。

24.B
