【答案】1.C2.C3.D4.D

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了雨对人类行为和情绪的影响。

【1题详解】

目的意图题。根据第一段中“Thiswaspossiblybecauseintheabsenceofsunlight,thebodywasstillproducingthehotmon(激素)melatonin(褪黑素),whichmakespeoplesleepy.（这可能是因为在没有阳光的环境下，身体仍在产生褪黑激素，让人昏昏欲睡。）”和第二段中“Therearemanywaysthatrainfallaffectshumanbehavior.（降雨影响人类行为的方式有很多。）”可知，在本段引用一句歌词是为了说明潮湿天气是影响人类行为的一种方式。故选C。

【2题详解】

词义猜测题。根据划线部分所在句“Theyproposedthatdecreasedrainfallwasinfluentialinsocialupheaval(社会动荡)andthedownfalloftheTang,YuanandMingdynastiesinancientChina.（他们提出，降雨减少是中国古代社会动荡和唐、元、明王朝灭亡的重要原因。）”和“Thisisthoughttoberelatedtoreducedricecultivation.（这被认为与水稻种植减少有关。）”可知，在以农耕为主的王朝，水稻种植的减少，最终会导致王朝覆灭。所以划线词downfall意为“灭亡”。故选C。

【3题详解】

细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“Thismightbebecauseheavyrainstopspeoplefromgoingouttobuyalcoholandthereducedalcoholconsumptionresultsinfewercrimes.（这可能是因为，由于下大雨，人们无法外出购买酒，而酒的消费量减少，导致犯罪减少。）”可知，LangmeadJones认为下雨天犯罪相对较少是因为酒的消费量减少。故选D。

【4题详解】

细节理解题。根据倒数第四段中“Theresearchshowedthattheheaviertherainfall,thelowertherecordedcrime（研究表明，降雨量越大，犯罪率就越低）”和倒数第二段中“Anotherstudyin2023foundthatwomen...thanmenonrainydays.（2023年的另一项研究发现，女性更容易受到下雨的心理影响，她们在雨天的生活满意度比男性低得多。）”和最后一段中“Thetheorybehindthisisthatthepitterpatterofraindropsisaformof‘pinknoise’.（背后的理论是，雨滴的噼啪声是一种“粉色噪音”。）”以及“Itcandecreasebrainactivityandconsequentlyimprovesthequalityofsleep.（这可以减少大脑活动，从而提高睡眠质量。）”可知，本文中提到下雨天对人行为的影响包括相对少的犯罪记录、情绪低落的几率更高以及更有可能犯困。故选D。

【答案】5.A6.A7.C8.D

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了DeepGreen和ExmouthLeisureCenter之间的合作关系。文章说明了数据中心对企业运营的重要性，以及数据中心和游泳池在能源成本方面面临的挑战。为了解决这个问题，DeepGreen建立了一个小型数据中心在ExmouthLeisureCenter中，利用数据中心产生的热量来加热游泳池，这对双方都带来了好处。文章强调了这种合作关系的互利性。

【5题详解】

词义猜测题。根据第二段中“sotherearemoreandmoredatacenters.Inordertokeeptemperaturesdown,datacentershavetouseaneffectiveairconditioningsystem.In2022,thedatacenterindustryusedaround4%ofglobalelectricity.Thedatacentermarketwillgrowthreetimesinthenexttenyears.(所以有越来越多的数据中心。为了降低温度，数据中心必须使用有效的空调系统。2022年，数据中心行业消耗了全球约4%的电力。数据中心市场将在未来十年内增长了三倍。)”可知互联网和计算机系统现在对大多数企业的运营至关重要，根据上下文，“integral”表示数据中心对企业运营至关重要的因素。故选A项。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中“Since2023,energycostsforaswimmingpoolhavereportedlyincreasedthreetimes,leavingmanycenterswithnochoicebuttoclose.(据报道，自2023年以来，游泳池的能源成本增加了三倍，使许多中心别无选择，只能关闭)”可知，使游泳池难以维持运营的原因是高能源成本。故选A项。

【7题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Wheremostnormaldatacenterswastetheheatthatthecomputerscreate,DeepGreenhasfoundasolutiontobenefiteverybody.TheyhavebuiltasmalldatacenterinExmouthLeisureCenter,allowingtheheatfromtheserverstoheattheswimmingpool.(大多数普通数据中心都在浪费计算机产生的热量，而深绿已经找到了一种使每个人都受益的解决方案。他们在埃克斯茅斯休闲中心建立了一个小型数据中心，允许来自服务器的热量加热游泳池。)”可知DeepGreen通过建立一个小型数据中心在ExmouthLeisureCenter中，利用服务器产生的热量来加热游泳池，帮助了ExmouthLeisureCentre。故选C项。

【8题详解】

主旨大意题。文章主要报道了DeepGreen和ExmouthLeisureCenter之间的合作关系。文章说明了数据中心对企业运营的重要性，以及数据中心和游泳池在能源成本方面面临的挑战。为了解决这个问题，DeepGreen建立了一个小型数据中心在ExmouthLeisureCenter中，利用数据中心产生的热量来加热游泳池，这对双方都带来了好处。文章强调了这种合作关系的互利性。因此，文章主要是关于双赢合作对企业的好处。故选D项。

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。ChatGPT的极度受欢迎让让米国和其他地方的学校开始担心学生可能会利用这项技术来完成作业，从而引起了教育上的思考：如何教育和评估学生？

【9题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段“TheChatGPTAI,developedbythecompanyOpenAI,attracted100millionuserslessthantwomonthsafterfirstgoingpublicon30November2022.(由OpenAI公司开发的ChatGPTAI在2022年11月30日首次上市后不到两个月就吸引了1亿用户。)”可知，ChatGPT首次上市后不到两个月就吸引了1亿用户。可推知，ChatGPT的极度受欢迎超出了预期。故选D。

【10题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段“SchoolsintheUSandelsewherearesoonannouncingbansontherecentlyreleasedAI-poweredchatbotoutoffearthatstudentscouldusethetechnologytocompletetheirassignments.(米国和其他地方的学校很快宣布禁止最近发布的人工智能聊天机器人，因为担心学生可能会使用该技术完成作业。”)”可知，米国学校禁止使用ChatGPT主要是因为担心学生可能会利用这项技术来完成作业，也即是，担心这项技术的不当使用。故选A。

【11题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段“Removingtechnologyfromtheclassroomcanmeanundesirableconsequences,suchascreatingmoreobstaclesforstudentswithdisabilities,saysTrust.(托斯卡说，将科技设备从教室中移除可能意味着不良后果，比如给残疾学生制造更多障碍。)”可知，把科技从课堂上移除的后果是：这可能会给一些学生（如残疾学生）带来困难。故选A。

【12题详解】

推理判断题。根据末段末句““IjustwisheducatorscouldseethatAIwritingtoolsaregoingtobepartofourfuture—andabigpartofstudents’futurecareers,”saysTrust.(托斯卡说：“我只是希望教育工能看到，人工智能写作工具将成为我们未来的一部分，也是学生未来职业生涯的重要组成部分。”)”可知，托斯卡认为ChatGPT在学生未来职业中是不可避免的组成部分。故选B。

【答案】13.B14.A15.C16.C

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，经常吃迷你餐对健康有益，并介绍了一些健康零食。

【13题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段关键句“Cansnackingbeakeyelementofahealthylifestyle”（吃零食是健康生活方式的关键要素吗？）可知，在文章开头提出一个问题，询问读者吃零食是健康生活方式的关键要素吗？再根据第一段关键句“Researchershavefoundthateatingfrequentmini-mealsoffershealthbenefits.”（研究人员发现，经常吃迷你餐对健康有益。）可知，下文介绍了一项新的研究发现，吃少量的健康零食对健康有益，由此可知，在文章开头提出一个问题是为了激发读者对文章要讨论的话题的兴趣。故选B项。

【14题详解】

词义猜测题。根据画线短语下文“foodwasdividedinto17mini-mealsaday”（食物被分为每天17顿迷你餐）可知，参与研究的另一组人每天吃17顿迷你餐，由此可知，这些人一次不会吃太多的食物，“Noteatingtoomuchfoodatatime”意为“一次不吃太多的食物”，能够表达画线短语在句中所要表达的意思。故选A项。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段内容“Also,youmaythinkeatingconcentratedsourcesoffatorsugar(orboth)willpacktheweightintoyourbody.However,seebelowforsomeexamplesofhealthysnacks:”（此外，你可能会认为食用浓缩的脂肪或糖（或两者兼而有之）会增加你的体重。然而，下文是健康零食的一些例子：）可知，文中列举了一些含有脂肪或糖的健康零食，这些零食不一定会增加你的体重，例如下文介绍的坚果，由此可知，从这篇文章可以推断出吃高脂肪或高糖的零食不一定会增加体重。故选C项。

【16题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“Driedfruits(raisins,currants,apricots)helpyoustockuponiron.Ifyoutendtofeelcoldinwinter,keepraisinshandy.Whenyourbloodsugardrops,you’llhaveaninstantremedy.”（果干（葡萄干、醋栗、杏干）可以帮助你储存铁。如果你在冬天觉得冷，就把葡萄干放在手边。当你的血糖下降时，你会得到即时治疗。）可知，果干可以帮助你储存铁，让你在寒冷的冬天感到温暖，由此可推断出，一个想在冬天让自己感到温暖的女孩在日常生活中可以从果干中获益。故选C项。

【答案】17.E18.B19.G20.F21.A

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了为什么工作中的界限至关重要。

【17题详解】

根据下文“Ifyouhaveinformedsomeonethatthisisyourofficespace,yourdesk,oryourchair,youhaveattemptedtosetphysicalboundaries.(如果你告诉别人这是你的办公室，你的桌子，或你的椅子，你已经试图设置物理边界)”可知，此处在讲述界限的类型。由此可知，E.Boundariescanbephysical,mental,emotional,tangible,orintangible.(界限可以是身体上的、精神上的、情感上的、有形的或无形的)能够衔接下文，符合此处语境。故选E。

【18题详解】

根据上文“Itisofteneasiertounderstandaphysicalboundary.Emotionalormentalboundariesmaybesubtler(更微妙的).(物理边界通常更容易理解。情感或精神界限可能更加微妙)”可知，此处在对比物理边界和情感或精神界限。由此可知，B.However,theyareequally,ifnotmore,important.(然而，它们即使不是更重要，也同样重要)能够承接上文，其中they指代上文中的“物理边界和情感或精神界限”，符合此处语境。故选B。

【19题详解】

根据下文“Oneexampleofthisisbeingrepeatedlyaskedtoworklateduringtheweek/weekendsorwhileonvacation.AnotherexampleisbeingrequiredtoseetoomanyclientsorpatientstothepointwefeeltiredattheendofthedayandexhaustedbyFriday.(其中一个例子就是反复被要求在工作日/周末或假期加班。另一个例子是，我们被要求看太多的客户或病人，以至于我们在一天结束时感到疲惫，到周五就筋疲力尽了)”可知，此处讲述的是我们会被要求做一些超出我们感觉能力范围的事情。由此可知，G.Suchboundariesofteninvolvebeingaskedtodomorethanwefeelcapableofforanextendedperiodoftime.(这种界限经常包括在很长一段时间内被要求做一些超出我们感觉能力范围的事情)能够衔接下文，符合此处语境。故选G。

【20题详解】

根据上文“Forexample,youvalueaworkplaceculturethattreatsemployeesandclientswithrespectanddignityandactsethically.Aftersixmonths,yourealizethatcompanyleadersarerepeatedlybehavinginwaysnotconsistentwiththis.(例如，你看重一种尊重员工和客户、行为合乎道德的职场文化。六个月后，你意识到公司领导的行为一再与此不一致)”及常识可知，当个人价值观和道德标准与公司不一致时，可能会导致内部冲突。由此可知，F.Yourvaluesandethicalstandardsdon’tmatchwithyourcompany’s,whichlikelywillleadtointernalconflict.(你的价值观和道德标准与公司不一致，这可能会导致内部冲突)能够承接上文，符合此处语境。故选F。

【21题详解】

根据下文“Boundariesservemanyfunctions.Theyhelpprotectus,clarifyourresponsibility,preserveourphysicalandemotionalenergy,andliveourvaluesandstandards.(边界有很多功能。它们有助于保护我们，明确我们的责任，保持我们的身体和情感能量，并实现我们的价值观和标准)”可知，本段主要介绍的是边界对我们很重要。由此可知，A.Whyareboundariesimportant(为什么界限很重要？)能够统领本段，符合此处语境。故选A。
