【4题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第一段"Likemostcouples,myhusbandandIdreamedofbecoming

homeowners.Sure,apartmentlivingcomeswithitsownsetofadvantages—less

housework,sharedcomfort,lesstocleanupandcarefor,andusuallycheaperrent.

Asaresult,wedecidedtodowngradefromourneatfive-bedroom,2,700-square-foot

houseonthewatertoathree-bedroom,1,369-square-footapartment,withtwokids.”

（像大多数夫妻一样，我丈夫和我都梦想着拥有自己的房子。当然，公寓生活有它自己的优

势一一少家务，共享舒适，不用打扫和照顾，通常租金更便宜。因此，我们决定把这幢整洁

的、有五间卧室、2700平方英尺的水上住宅降级为一套带两个孩子的、有三间卧室、1369

平方英尺的公寓。）可知，作者的公寓变小了。故选c项。

【5题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第二段"Oncewearrivedinournewapartment,weweresurprised

tofindthatthingsflowedrelativelysmoothly.Therewassomuchlesstokeepup

with-fewerfloorstomop,fewerwindowstoclean,fewerwallstowipe,etc.Now

thehouse,ssecondfloor!"（我们一到新公寓，就惊讶地发现一切都还算顺利。要擦的

地板少了，要擦的窗户少了，要擦的墙壁也少了，等等。现在我觉得我们的家就像我们的小

玩具屋，因为它比以前小得多，而且所有东西都靠得更近。这也让我更容易跟上作为一个母

亲的步伐。比起爬楼梯到房子的第二层，我在同一层收集所有的衣服!）可推知，作者夫妻

两对新公寓大为惊奇，认为很适合他们。故选B项。

【6题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段"Inournewhome,weuselotsofshoeorganizers

insideofeveryclosetdoorformorethanjustshoes—babyitems,officeitems,and

medicines.Wealsohaveafunctionalroomthatservesasanofficeandgym.Since

bothmyhusbandandIworkfromhome,werequireatleastoneroomtoshareasan

officewithfitnessequipmentfittedintoacorner.M（在我们的新家中,我们在每

个壁橱门内使用大量的鞋子整理器，而不仅仅是鞋子一一婴儿用品，办公用品和药品。我们

还设有一间用作办公室和健身房的多功能室。由于我和丈夫都在家工作，因此我们至少需

要一个房间作为办公室共享，角落里装有健身器材。）可知，作者夫妻对新家做出改变主要

是为了充分利用空间。故选D项。

【7题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章最后一段"Whilemanypeoplechoosetodownsizeforfinancial

reasons,thatactuallywasn'tafactorinourdecision.Wewantedtobeinalively

areawithlike-mindedyoungfamilies.Thatwasourfirstpriority.w（尽管许多人

出于经济原因选择缩小规模，但这实际上并不是我们做出决定的因素。我们希望与志趣相投

的年轻家庭一起生活在一个热闹的地区。那是我们的首要任务。）可知，搬家时，作者夫妇

首先关心的是希望能和志趣相投的年轻家庭一起生活在一个热闹的地区。故选B项。

【答案】8.A9.C10.I)11.B

【解析】

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种使食物更新鲜且保存更久的方法，即使用

以鸡蛋液为基础的液体。文章还介绍了这一方法的发现过程以及这一发现的重要意义。

【8题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中“Theegg-basedcoating,asitturnedout,reducedeach

fruit'schancetogetexposedtooxygen.（事实证明，以鸡蛋为基础的外壳减少了每个

水果暴露在氧气中的机会）”可知，以鸡蛋为基础的外壳通过阻止食物与氧气接触来保鲜。

故选Ao

【9题详解】

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Thescientistshopethiscouldbeabreakthroughinthe

fightagainstfoodwaste.'Reducingfoodshortagesinwaysthatarenotrelated

togeneticmodification,uneatablecoatingsorchemicaladditivesisimportantfor

bettersustainableliving,'saidmaterialsscientistandstudyauthorPulickel

Ajayan说：'以与基因改造、不可食用涂料或化学添加剂无关的方式减少粮食短缺，对更

好的可持续生活很重要。'）”可推断，文章提到PulickelAjayan旨在说明该发现的意义。

故选Co

10题详解】

词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“eventhecoatingwasmadefromeggsthatwouldotherwise

havebeen”以及后文ubecausetheyweren,tfitforconsumption,,可知，涂层也是由

鸡蛋制成的，否则它们就会因为不适合食用而被丢弃。故画线词的意思为“丢弃”。A.Eaten

up.吃光；B.Takenin.理解；C.Pickedout.挑选出；D.Thrownaway.丢弃。故选I）。

【11题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第二段“Scientistsdiscoveredthatdippingproducelike

常好。涂层非常厚，由蛋白粉和70%的蛋黄的混合物制成，还有一些木质纤维素作为防止水

分流失的屏障）”结合文章主要介绍了一种使食物更新鲜且保存更久的方法，即使用以鸡蛋

液为基础的液体。文章介绍了这一方法的发现过程以及这一发现的重要意义。可知，这篇文

章的主要内容是一种保存食物的新方法。故选B。

D

【答案】12.C13.D14.A15.C

【解析】

【分析】本文属属于说明文，现在MIB课程越来越受欢迎，文章中对其受欢迎具体的原因

进行了分析。

【12题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段第一句"ThecoursecontentandteachingmethodsofMIBare

quitedifferentfromanormalMBAorMasterofBusinessAdministration."MIB的

课程内容和教学方法与普通的MBA或工商管理硕士有很大的不同。和最后一句"Thecourse

offersvariousadvantagesovertheconventionalMBAdegreecourse.”与传

统的MBA学位课程相比，该课程提供了各种优势。可知本段中主要通过对比MIB和MBA课程

之间的区别来组织全文的。故C项正确。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第三段第四句"Bigmultinationalorganizationslookfor

talentedpeoplewhocanhandlethejobprofileofInternationalMarketingManage,

andpeoplewithMIBdegreesarepreferred.大型跨国组织寻找能够处理国际营销管理

工作的人才,有MIB学位的人优先考虑。可知很多大型国际组织更喜欢聘用有MIB学位人才。

这才是越来越多的人学习M1B课程的主要原因。故D正确。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句"Sincebusinessfinanceandeconomicsarecovered

atlengthinthecurriculumofMIB,studentshavegreatjoboffersinthefieldof

financeaswell.Typically,organizationsoffertheprofileofinternationalfinance

controllerstothosewhocompleteMIBwiththespecializationoffinance.w

可知MIB课程中含有商业金融方面的课程,而很多机构会把国际金融控制师的工作给这些完

成MIB学位的人，说明这是一份非常好的工作。故A正确。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第一段可知现在MIB课程越来越受欢迎。本段最后一句"Thereare

validreasonsforsomuchpopularityofMTBcourse.”提出了这一课程受欢迎有很多

原因，文章接下来三段就对具体的原因进行了说明。所以短文的目的是解释为什么MIB课程

越来越受欢迎。故C项正确。
