basedonyourgenetictastetendency.”可知，PersonalizedMealPlans需要你提供你的基因信息。故选D。

A.JenniferSills.B.YongshengJi.

C.FalkoBuschke.D.AdaGabrielaBlidner.

Fruit你可以和家人一起摘水果，并结合该部分中的“YongshengJi”可知，如果你想和家人玩得开心，你应

该和YongshengJi联系。故选B。

23.WhichofthefollowingbestdescribesthesteaksinMeat?

A.Fresh.B.Green.

C.Expensive.D.Personalized.

解析：选B推理判断题。根据Meat部分中的第一句"Oursteaksaresourcedfromnaturalgrasslands^^

及第二句中的"weenhancenaturalgrazing(放牧)toimproveanimalgrowtheffectivelywhileminimizing

methane(Ttt.)productionandwaterconsumptionn可知，该部分讲述的牛排来自天然草场，并且该部分讲述

了加强自然放牧以有效地促进动物生长，同时最大限度地减少甲烷的产生和水的消耗，由此可推知，该部

分描述的牛排是环保的。故选B。green在此意为“环保的”。

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了心理学家MichaelMurphy和他的团队的一项研究成果，就

是拥抱行为可以起到使人们积极向上，更好地应对焦虑和压力的作用。

24.WhatdoesParagraph1serveas?

A.Alead-in.B.Abackground.

C.Anargument.D.Asummary.

解析：选A篇章结构题。第一段通过举例和三个问题引出本文的主题“拥抱”，因此第一段充当

了引子。故选A项。

25.Whydidtheresearchersinterviewthosepeople?

A.Tofindoutcausesoftheirconflicts.

B.Totesttheinfluenceofhugging.

C.Toaskforadviceonrelievingstress.

D.Toseekwaystocomforttroubledpeople.

解析：选B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Hewantedtoknowifpeoplewhoreceivedhugsregularly

couldhandleanxietyandstressbetter”可知，研究者进行这项实验（采访）的目的是看看人们获得拥抱后

是否能够更好地应对焦虑和压力，故B项“为了检验拥抱的作用”正确。

26.Whatdoestheunderlinedword"they”inParagraph4referto?

A.404interviewees.

B.Murphyandhisteam.

C.Participantsgettingahug.

D.Peoplereceivingnohugs.

解析：选C代词指代题。根据画线词前一句和后面的“whilethosewhodidnotreceiveonewould”可

知，与他人发生过冲突后，获得拥抱的人比那些没有得到拥抱的人受到的负面影响小，他们第二天

也不再携带负面情绪，而那些没有获得拥抱的人则不然。故they指代那些获得了拥抱的人。

27.WhatdoMurphy'swordswarnintheend?

A.Theinterviewresultsprovetheirfindings.

B.Abossshouldcomfortworkersbyhugging.

C.Peopleshouldhugothersregularlyandactively.

D.Therearesomelimitationsoftheirfindings.

解析：选D推理判断题。根据最后一段中Murphy的话可知，工作中老板的拥抱和来自大街上陌生

人的拥抱并不能带来积极的影响，即Murphy表明他们的发现是有局限性的，故选D项。

28.Howdidtheauthor'shusbandfeelwhenagirlaskedaquestioninthepark?

A.Shocked.B.Thrilled.

C.Disappointed.D.Confused.

解析：选A推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Ithoughthewasgoingtofallover.Thecolorfadedfromhis

解析：选C句意理解题。根据第四段中的“Ithoughthewasgoingtofallover.Thecolorfadedfromhisface.

A.Manyyoungpeoplefollowanold-fashionedlifestyle.

B.It'sinconvenientfortheoldtoreadonlinenewspapers.

C.There9restillyoungpeoplewholoveprintednewspapers.

解析：选C推理判断题。根据第六段中的“NowmyhusbandwillbeveryexcitedthatIhavefoundfurther

proofthattheremaystillbehopeforthesurvivalofprintednewspapers.”可以推断，作者举这个年轻妈妈的例子

是为了说明仍然有年轻人喜欢纸质报纸，故选C。

31.Whatdoestheauthormainlytalkaboutinthepassage?

A.Thenewriseofdigitalnewspapers.

B.Aman'severlastingloveforprintednewspapers.

C.Thepleasureoflookingthroughdailynewspapers.

D.Afamily'smemoryofreadingprintednewspapers.

解析：选B主旨大意题。根据第二段的内容可知，作者的丈夫从16岁起就开始从事报纸方面的工作；

文章接着主要通过三件事（作者的丈夫对一个女孩不知道什么是纸质报感到震惊；小女儿和女婿争做纸质报

上的纵横填字游戏时，丈夫很高兴；当作者找到更多的证据证明纸质报纸仍然有生存下去的希望时，作者

的丈夫会很兴奋）讲述了作者的丈夫对于纸质报的永恒的热爱，故选B。

语篇解读：文章主要介绍了两条非常实用的培养自信心的建议：第一，相信自己的能力可以提高；第

二，从失败中汲取经验:教训。

36.选A前一句给出要更加自信的建议，后一句是说相信自己是有价值的，有能力的，这也是自尊，

故A项“但是什么是自信？”衔接上下文，符合语境。

37.选F根据文章结构和空处所在位置可知，空处为该段的主题句。第一段最后一句是说要记住几条

实用的建议，第二段第一句话应该是第一条建议，并结合该段的内容可知，本段主要讲述要相信自己的能

力可以提高，故F项“相信你的能力能提高是第一步”符合语境。

38.选G根据上文中的"Butifyouhaveagrowthmindset...growwithstudyandpractice.“可知，如果你

有成长的心态，认为你的能力可以提高，一项挑战将变成学习和成长的机会，你大脑里的联系就会更强并

39.选C空前一句是说失败很常见，空后两句又举例说明一些名人在成功前遭遇的失败，故C项“每

个人都有可能经历失败”衔接上下文，符合语境。

40.选E空前一句是说那些经常失败但一直坚持的人会积极应对挑战，故E项“他们学着尝试不同

的策略并坚持不懈”符合语境。
