（2）C.推理判断题。根据MetropolitanOperaHouse  ，Philadelphia部分Inthe1920s ，itwasrenamedastheMetropolitanOperaHouse       ，showingsilentfilmsinadditiontohostingvariousoperacompanies.Inthe1940s          ，itbecameasportsarena.In1954    ，itwasturnedintoachurch.Inthelate1990s       ，thebuildingwaspurchasedbyMarkHatcher.Thechurchandthedevelopercametoanagreementonarepairforamusicvenuethatwascompletedandreopenedin2018.                           （在20世纪20年代，它被更名为大都会歌剧院，除了举办各种歌剧公司外，还放映无声电影。在20世纪40年代，它变成了一个运动场。1954年，它变成了一座教堂。20世纪90年代末，这座建筑被马克•哈彻买下。教堂和开发商就修复音乐场地达成协议，该场地已于2018年竣工并重新开放。可知，MetropolitanOperaHouse  从上世纪20年代到本世纪大约100年间几经变化，从歌剧院到运动场，再到教堂，目前它是一个音乐场地。）可知，MetropolitanOperaHouse  的功能发生了变化。故选C。

（3）D.目的意图题。根据第一段Oldandunrestoredtheatresareallaroundusandyetsounnoticed.Anewphotobookunveilstheiroftenoverlookedbeauty.                  （我们周围到处都是古老而未经修复的剧院，但却如此无人注意。一本新的相册揭示了它们经常被忽视的美。）结合下文对四个老剧院的独特之处的介绍可知，本文的目的是提供一些有关被忽略的旧剧院的资料。故选D。

本文是一篇广告布告类阅读，主要介绍了四个被人们忽略的老剧院。

（2）A.推理判断题。根据倒数第四和第三段Andmybestfriendwhodidherprojectondolphins-becameadolphin！"Really？"thestudentssaidinchorus.（我最好的一个做海豚项目的朋友变成了一只海豚！"真的吗？"学生们异口同声地说）推知，当孩子们得知作者的一个朋友变成了海豚时他们感到很惊讶。A.amazed惊讶的；B.doubtful怀疑的；C.scared害怕的；D.confused困惑的。故选A。

（3）D.主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其倒数第六段的I'vewritteneightchildren'sbooksandhavealwayskeptBeverly'ssenseofwonderinmind.（我已经写了八本儿童读物，并一直将克莱瑞的好奇心铭记在心）和Ichosechildren'sauthors，withalargechunkofmyprojectbeingaboutwhoelse？BeverlyCleary！（我选择了儿童作家，我的项目很大一部分是关于谁的？贝芙莉•克莱瑞！）和最后一段That'swhatBeverlyClearytaughtme.Inthehandsofagiftedstoryteller，anythingispossible.…andsoveryfunny.（这是贝芙莉•克莱瑞教我的。在一个有天赋的小说家手中，一切皆有可能，并且非常有趣）可知，本文主要讲述了作者是如何受到贝芙莉•克莱瑞的启发成为一名作家的。故选D。

这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者是如何受到贝芙莉•克莱瑞的启发成为一名作家的。

做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。做题时要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。7~10.【答案】B、B、D、B【解析】（1）B.细节理解题。根据第二段Individualbirdsthatweretrackedformorethanoneyearexhibitedstrongpathrepeatabilityduringmigration，completeloyaltytowinteringlocationsandlimitedbreedingdispersal（扩散）.（追踪超过一年的单个鸟类在迁徙过程中表现出很强的路径重复性，对越冬地点完全忠诚，并限制繁殖扩散。）可知，它们对自己的越冬地点非常专一。故选B。

（2）B.推理判断题。根据第三段TheyfoundADCY8hadavariantathighfrequencyinlong-distancemigrantpopulationsofperegrinefalcons，indicatingthisvariantisbeingfavorablyselectedbecauseitmayincreasepowersoflong-termmemorythoughttobeessentialforlong-distancemigration.（他们发现ADCY8在长途迁徙的游隼种群中有一种高频率的变异，这表明这种变异被有利地选择了，因为它可能增加长期记忆的能力，这被认为是长途迁徙的必要条件。）可推断，ADCY8是长途迁徙中必不可少的要素。故选B。

（3）D.推理判断题。根据最后一段Ourworkisthefirsttobegintounderstandthewayecologicalfactorsmayinteractinmigratorybirds，"saidDr.ZHANXiangjiang."Wehopeitwillserveasacornerstonetohelpconservemigratoryspeciesintheworld.（詹湘江博士说："我们的工作是第一次开始了解生态因素可能在候鸟中相互作用的方式。""我们希望它能成为保护世界迁徙物种的基石。"）可推断，该研究的特别之处是了解了生态因素对候鸟的影响，希望更多的人关注这一点。故选D。

（4）B.标题归纳题。根据倒数第二段Previousstudieshaveidentifiedseveralcandidategenomicregionsthatmayregulatemigration-butourworkisthestrongestdemonstrationofaspecificgeneassociatedwithmigratorybehavioryetidentified（以前的研究已经确定了几个可能调控迁移的候选基因组区域，但我们的工作是迄今为止与迁移行为相关的特定基因的最有力的证明。）及全文可知，文章主要介绍了研究发现证实了鸟类身上存在的迁徙基因。所以"BiologistsFindEvidenceofMigrationGeneinBirds（生物学家在鸟类身上发现迁徙基因的证据）"作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的科学发现，研究表明，全球变暖对于长途迁徙的鸟类有很大的影响。

做题时要通读全文，把握大意，然后结合题干及选项做出正确的选择。11~14.【答案】C、B、D、C【解析】【文章大意】本文主要讲述了面对家庭冲突或隔阂，相比疏远，修复是更好的方法。

1.

根据第一段中Search"toxicparents",andyou'llfindmorethan38,000posts...mentalhealthfromabusiveparents.（搜索“有毒父母”，你会发现超过38,000条帖子，大部分都是敦促年轻人与家人断绝关系。这样做是为了保护自己的心理健康不受父母虐待。）可知
