“关爱者的饼干”项目，给在地震中努力工作的急救人员和企业主送饼干。

【24题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段中“ThisjourneybeganwhenMcKenzie,58,foundhimselflaidoffanddecidedto

learnanewskilleveryweek.Bakingwasoneofthesenewskills,andhewaspleasantlysurprisedbythequalityof

hisfirstbatchofcookies."（这段旅程始于58岁的麦肯齐，他发现自己被解雇了，于是决定每周学习一项

新技能。烘焙是其中一项新技能，他对第一批饼干的质量感到惊喜。）可知，斯科特•麦肯齐在开始烘焙

之前他不幸失业了。故选A项。

【25题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“Uhrich,42,bakedwithhissonsthatsamedayandproposedacompetitionto

McKenzie.Thetwoagreedtoletcommunityworkersinthecommunityjudgethetreatsasathank-youfortheir

竞赛。两人同意让社区工作人员来评判这些食物，以感谢他们在艰难时期的帮助。比赛取得了成功，但麦

肯齐和乌里希并没有就此止步。他们决定把剩下的饼干送给社区工作人员，这激发了一个想法，最终成为

了“关爱者的饼干”可知，最初麦肯齐和乌里奇之间的烘焙比赛导致了“关爱者的饼干”这个项目。

故选B项。

【26题详解】

主旨大意题o根据第三段“Thetimingcouldn'thavebeenmorecrucial一thecommunityhadrecently

experiencedaterribleearthquake,leavingmanyhomesdestroyedandfamiliesdisplaced.Aspartoftherebuilding

than15,000cookiestoworkersathospitals,grocerystores,firedepartments,andmore."（这个时机非常关键——

一这个社区最近经历了一场可怕的地震，许多房屋被毁，许多家庭流离失所。作为重建工作的一部分，

Facebook上一个名为“照顾者的饼干”的小组诞生了。麦肯齐和乌里希让他们的邻居自愿为在地震后不知

疲倦地工作的急救人员和企业主们做点心。自灾难发生以来，已有100多人加入了该组织，为医院、杂货

店、消防部门等工作人员烘焙并分发了1.5万多块饼干。）可知，第三段主要讲的是介绍“关爱者的饼干”

这个项目。故选B项。

[27题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段中“Theprojecthasbroughttogethermembersofthecommunitywho

mayhaveneverinteractedotherwise,allwithacommongoalofshowinggratitudetothoseonthefrontlinesofthe

rebuildingeffortsaftertheearthquake.McKenziesays"theyplanoncontinuingtheeffortbecausetheyare

地震后重建工作的第一线的人表示感谢。麦肯齐说：“他们计划继续努力，因为他们非常感谢无私的贡

献，并希望向尽可能多的人表达他们的感激之情。”）可推知，这篇文章传达了小小的善举可以产生很大

的影响。故选C项。

而防止犯罪）”可知，VaakEye通过分析摄像头收集的数据来检测入店行窃。故选D项。

[29题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段uTheoretically,shopstaffcanapproachsuspicioussubjectsafterreceivinganalert

fromthesoftwareandaskiftheyneedsomehelp.Thisshoulddiscouragesuspectedshopliftersfromgoingahead
