参考答案

1.答案：D

解析：根据第—段的“Enterthecompetitionmostrespectedandadmiredintheindustry""If

chosen,winningplacesyouinthehighestranksofyourprofession”可知，Communication

Arts插画大赛是行业内最有声望的比赛，获胜者会成为行业中的佼佼者。由此可推

断，获胜者会在行业内受到广泛认可。

2.答案：C

解析：理解具体信息题。根据EntriesCanBeSubmittedInTheFollowingFormats部分

的"GIFimagesmaybelivelier,butwouldbeturneddown,andsowouldthePNGones”可

知,GIF和PNG格式的图片不符合参赛要求，故选C项。

3.答案：C

解析：理解具体信息题。根据IllustrationCompetitionCategories&EntryFees部分中表

格里的信息可知，系列（不超过5幅）图书封面插画的参赛费用是80美元；LateFees

部分又提到2023年1月13日至1月27日提交的作品需要额外交每幅10美元的逾期

费，故在2023年1月20日提交3幅图书封面插画需支付的费用为80+10X3=110（美

元）。

4.答案：D

解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In2018,whenplayingwithanoldcameraathome,

Liuaccidentallytookdozensofpicturesoflightning.Hepostedthemonlineandreceived

manylikes,arousinghisgreatinterestinshootingstorms.（2018年，刘某在家里玩I日相机

时，不小心拍下了几十张闪电的照片。他把这些照片发到网上，得到了很多人的点

赞，引起了他对拍摄风暴的极大兴趣。）”可知，他的照片的流行促使刘拍摄风暴。故

选D。

5.答案：B

解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第二段"But汕nevereasytoshootamazingpicturesabout

ever-changingstorms.Everytime,Liuneedstofindanareawherestormscouldappearand

thenmarkthebestshootingpositions,whichoftencoverdozensofkilometers.Then,hell

findareliabledriverandcarryhisphotographicequipmentandfoodtowaitforthestorm.

Forshootinghigh-qualitystorms,healwaysstickswithittotheendandoftenlandshimself

indangerofbeingattackedbyhails（冰雹）andpouringrains.（但要拍出千变万化的风暴，

绝非易事。每次，刘都需要找到一个可能出现风暴的区域，然后标出最佳的拍摄位

置，这些位置通常会覆盖几十公里。然后，他会找到一个可靠的司机，带上摄影器材

和食物，等待风暴的到来。为了拍摄高质量的风暴，他总是坚持到底，经常会被冰雹

和倾盆大雨袭击。）”可知，第二段主要介绍了刘在拍摄高质量风暴方面的努力。故选

Bo

6.答案：A

解析：推理判断题。根据文章第三段"Thefarmer'swordshithimashardasany

thunderstorm."Ijustwantedtoshootthestorm,butIneverthoughtthatwhatIlikeisa

disasterforothers,"Liusaid."Ifeltguiltyanddecidedtodosomethingtohelpmorepeople

learnaboutmeteorology（气象学）."（农夫的话对他的打击像雷雨一样大。"我只是想拍风

暴，但我从来没有想过我喜欢的东西对别人来说是一场灾难，"刘说。"我感到内疚，

决定做点什么来帮助更多人了解气象学。和文章最后一段"NowLiumakesandposts

shortvideoswithexplanationsaboutthephenomenaandthepossibledangersofstorms.（现

在，刘制作并发布了简短的视频，解释了风暴的现象和可能的危险。）”可知，农民的

话让他选择传播知识。故选A。

7.答案：C

解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段"Forexample,towarnpeopleofthedangerof

possiblehails,hemarkedhailcores,whichoftenshownoticeablebluecolorsduetolarge

amountsofthickraindropsinthecloud,becausewatermoleculesabsorbredlightandscatter

bluelight.（例如，为了警告人们可能有冰雹的危险，他标记了雹核。由于云层中有大

量的厚雨滴，所以通常显示出明显的蓝色，因为水分子吸收红光，散射蓝光。）”可

知，作者在最后一段提到了冰雹核，以说明刘是如何帮助人们理解风暴的。故选C。

8.答案：C

解析：推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，作者介绍了当地新闻中提到的三种野生动物

和人类相处时遇到的问题,分别是野猪破坏高尔夫球场，边境墙的维修影响美洲虎的分

布，以及重新引入墨西哥狼的努力结果喜忧参半，故选C。

9.答案：A

解析：细节理解题。根据第三段"ThewayIsawit,thejavelinasweren'tinvadingthesite;

theywerereclaimingit.Afterall,thejavelinas'needs一forfoodandspace一aremorebasic

thanafewprivilegedhumans'desiretoplaygolf,"可知作者认为野猪破坏修建在沙漠中的

高尔夫球场是为了寻找食物和生存的空间，而不是入侵球场，故选A。

10.答案：B

解析：推理判断题。根据第四段"Today,almost250Mexicanwolvesarebelievedtobein

thewild,andeveryyear,humansillegallykilloneoutof10.Thewolfrecoveryeffortis

necessary,butit'sextremelydifficultbecausewehumanskeepgettingintheway“可知狼的

恢复工作是必要的，但这是非常困难的，因为我们人类（非法猎杀）一直在挡道，故选B。

11.答案：C

解析：观点态度题。根据最后一段"Therefore,Ithinkthatitmustbeagoodsignthatmy

localnewsnowregularlycoversthechallengesofcoexistenceandpossiblesolutionstoour

problems.That'sprogressandfuelsmyhope.”可知作者认为当地新闻现在定期报道与野生

动物相处的挑战以及问题可能的解决方案是一个好的迹象,是进步的体现，点燃了作者

的希望，所以作者对于挑战的态度是积极的，故选Co

12.答案：C

解析：推理判断题。根据文章第一段"Andfloodcontrolandpreventionhavealwaysbeen

keytothewell-beingofthepeoplenearby.Now,scientistscanbetterworkontheseissuesby

givingtheriveradigitaltwin.（洪水的控制和预防一直是附近人民福祉的关键。现在，科

学家们可以通过给河流一个数字挛生体来更好地解决这些问题。）”可知，建设黄河数

字挛生体的主要目的是改善洪水的控制和预防工作。故选C。

13.答案：D

解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段"AccordingtoWangQin,aleadresearcheratthe

InformationCenterofYellowRiverHenanBureau,asmartstoneisawater-proofstone­

shapeddevicewithchips,abattery,andasignaltransmitterburiedinimportantdike（堤坝）

locationstorecordandreportthemovementofdikestones.（据黄河河南局信息中心首席研

究员王勤介绍，智能石是一种防水的石头状装置，它带有芯片、电池和信号发射器，

埋在重要的堤坝位置，以记录和报告堤坝石头的运动。厂可知，它们是用来记录和报

告堤防运动的设备。故选D。

14.答案：A

解析：词句猜测题。根据上文"AccordingtoShenLinfromtheYellowRiverConservancy

Commission,thankstothedrones,researchersatthecommandcentercangetfirst-hand

photosandinformation.nResearchersthenupdatethe3Dmodelaccordingtothechangesthe

dronesreported,whichhelpsustestourfloodwaterreleaseplans…"（据黄河水利委员会的

沈林介绍，多亏了无人机，指挥中心的研究人员可以获得第一手的照片和信息。沈

说:“研究人员然后根据无人机报告的变化更新3D模型，这有助于我们测试我们的洪

水释放计划……T可知，无人机报告的变化更新3D模型有助于工作人员为困难时刻

做好准备。由此可知，battendownthehatches意为"为困难时刻做准备”。故选A。

15.答案：B

解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第一段"TheYellowRiveristheoriginofChina'scivilization.

Andfloodcontrolandpreventionhavealwaysbeenkeytothewell-beingofthepeople

nearby.Now,scientistscanbetterworkontheseissuesbygivingtheriveradigitaltwin.（黄

河是中国文明的发源地。洪水的控制和预防一直是附近人民福祉的关键。现在，科学
