D.AmericanAcademyofNeurologyNeuroscienceResearchPrize.

【答案】21.B22.C23.D

【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个针对高中生的科学研究比赛。

21.细节理解题。根据第一段中"Participatinginascienceresearchcompetitionasahighschoolercanallowyouto

exploreoneofyourpassions,makingyouamorecompetitivecandidateduringthecollegeadmissionsprocess.（作

为一名高中生参加科学研究竞赛可以让你探索你的一个爱好，使你在大学录取过程中成为一个更有竞争力

的候选人）”可知，参加科学研究竞赛可以让高中生探索自己的兴趣和激情；由此可知，竞赛的目的是激发学

生对科学的热情。故选B。

22.细节理解题。根据“BreakthroughJuniorChallenge”部分中"TheBreakthroughJuniorChallengetasks

studentswithcreatingashorttwo-minutevideoinwhichtheyexplainacomplexscientificconceptanddemonstrate

howitworksinpractice.（BreakthroughJuniorChallenge要求学生制作一个简短的两分钟视频，在视频中解释

一个复杂的科学概念，并演示它在实际中是如何工作的）“以及“EyeontheFutureTeenVideoContest”部分中

'"Participantsaretaskedwithcreatingavideobetween30secondsandthreeminuteslong,eitherontheirownorin

teamsofuptothreemembers.（参与者需要独自或最多三人一组制作一段30秒到3分钟的视频）”可知，前两个

比赛的共同点是必须提交视频。故选C。

23.推理判断题。根据"AmericanAcademyofNeurologyNeuroscienceResearchPrize”部分中"This

competitionchallengesstudentstoinvestigateproblemsregardingthebrainornervoussystem.Itisonlyopento

individualstudents——groupprojectsareexcluded.Winnersreceiveamonetaryprizeandthechancetopresent

theirprojectsattheAANAnnualMeeting.（这项比赛挑战学生调查有关大脑或神经系统的问题。它只对单个学

生开放，不包括团体项目。获胜者将获得奖金，并有机会在AAN年会上展示他们的项目）”可知这项比赛挑

战学生调查有关大脑或神经系统的问题，可推理出美国神经科学院神经科学研究奖（AmericanAcademyof

NeurologyNeuroscienceResearchPrize）可能会吸引对医学感兴趣的参与者。故选D。

B

【答案】24.C25.B26.C27.A

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了萨缪尔森是如何发明滑水运动的。

24.细节理解题。根据第四段“Samuelsonfirsttriedwaterskiingwhileridinghisaquaplane,alarge,flatboard

pulledbehindhisbrother'sboat.OnJune28,1922,heskiedforseveralyardsthisway.Inthedaysthatfollowed,

Samuelsontrieddifferentapproaches.Inmostofhisattempts,hestartedwithhisskislevelwithorbelowthe

在他哥哥的船后面拉着一块巨大的平板。1922年6月28日，他就这样滑了好几码。在接下来的日子里，萨

缪尔森尝试了不同的方法。在他的大多数尝试中，他都是让滑水板与水线持平或低于水线；但当他哥哥把

船开起来的时候，萨缪尔森已经在下沉了。最后，他试着在身体后倾的时候把滑水板的顶端抬出水面一

成功了。然后，他开始在滑水板上学习技巧，这吸引了大批的旁观者来到海岸线）”可知，萨缪尔森通过自己

多次尝试学习滑水的。故选C项。

25.细节理解题。根据第四段的句子"Samuelsonfirsttriedwaterskiingwhileridinghisaquaplane,alarge,flat

boardpulledbehindhisbrother'sboat.OnJune28,1922,heskiedforseveralyardsthisway.（萨缪尔森第一次尝

试滑水是在他的滑水板上。他的滑水板是在他哥哥的船后面拉着一块巨大的平板。1922年6月28日，他就

这样滑了好几码）”可知，萨缪尔森第一次尝试滑水是在1922年。根据最后一段的句子“Sadly,hiscareerasa

waterskierwasshort-lived.Whenhehurthisbackinaconstructionaccidentin1927,hewasforcedtohanguphis

skisforever.（遗憾的是，他的滑水生涯很短暂。1927年，当他在一次施工事故中受伤时，他被迫永远收起滑

水板）”可知，他的滑水生涯在1927年结束。他的滑水生涯持续了大约五年。故选B项。

26.推理判断题。根据第一段"Onewinter,whileskiingdownsnowyhillswithfellowneighborhoodkids,Ralph

Samuelsonhadanidea,"Ifyoucouldskionsnow,^^hewondered,ctwhynotonwater?''（有一年冬天，拉尔夫•萨缪

尔森和邻居的孩子们从雪山上滑雪时，有了一个主意，“如果你可以在雪上滑雪，”他想，“为什么不能在水

上呢？和第二段"Inthesummerof1922,Samuelson,then18,beganhisattemptstostanduponskisonLake

Pepin,justseveralblocksfromhishouseinLakeCity,Minnesota.Afternumerousattempts,heeventually

succeeded,andoneoftheworld'smostbelovedwatersportswasbom.（1922年夏天，18岁的萨缪尔森开始尝试

在佩平湖的滑水板上站起来，那里离他明尼苏达州湖市的家只有几个街区。经过无数次的尝试，他最终成

功了，世界上最受欢迎的水上运动之一诞生了）”可知，萨缪尔森由滑雪想到了滑水，发明了滑水运动，所以，

他具有创造性。再根据第四段“Samuelsonfirsttriedwaterskiingwhileridinghisaquaplane,alarge,flatboard

pulledbehindhisbrother'sboat.OnJune28,1922,heskiedforseveralyardsthisway.Inthedaysthatfollowed,

Samuelsontrieddifferentapproaches.Inmostofhisattempts,hestartedwithhisskislevelwithorbelowthe

成功了。然后，他开始在滑水板上学习技巧，这吸引了大批的旁观者来到海岸线）”可知，萨缪尔森经过多次

尝试才掌握了滑水的技巧，所以，他是一个很坚定的人。故选c项。

27.推理判断题。本文主要介绍了萨缪尔森是如何发明滑水运动的，再结合文章最后一段的句子“Henever

patentedhiswaterskis,butsomanypeoplehadwatchedhimskithatSamuelsonwaseventuallyrecognizedasthe

sporfsinventor.Samuelsondiedofcancerin1977,buthislegacyliveson.There'sahistoricalmarkeratLake

过他滑水，所以萨缪尔森最终被公认为这项运动的发明者。1977年，萨缪尔森死于癌症，但他的遗产永存。

LakePepin有一个历史标记，自豪地把它标记为“滑水运动的发源地”厂可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是为

了向萨缪尔森表示敬意。故选A项。

A.Effectiveness.B.Limitation.C.Response.D.Risk.

【答案】29.C30.B31.D32.A

【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在太阳能板阵列中种植本土野花对传粉昆虫的积极影响。

29.细节理解题。根据文章第一段"Nowafive-yearstudypublishedinEnvironmentalResearchLetters,confirms

thatthisapproachbooststhepollinators9abundanceanddiversity------withspilloverbenefitsforsurrounding

farms.（现在，发表在《环境研究快报》上的一项为期五年的研究证实，这种方法增加了授粉媒介的数量和多

样性——对周围农场也有溢出效益。）”可知，这个五年研究关注野花播种项目的效果。故选C。

30.主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Humans'pesticideuse,greenhousegasemissionsandhabitatdestructionhave

causedmasspollinatordie-offs.Monarchbutterflynumbers,forexample,havedecreasedby80percentnationwide

inthepasttwodecades,andaccordingtotheCenterforBiologicalDiversity's2017report,nearlyoneinfour

nativebeespeciesisendangeredandatincreasingriskofextinction.（人类的农药使用、温室气体排放和栖息地破

坏已经导致大量传粉者死亡。例如，在过去的二十年里，全美帝王蝶的数量减少了80%,根据生物多样性

中心2017年的报告，近四分之一的本土蜜蜂物种濒临灭绝，灭绝风险不断增加。户可知，第三段主要讲的

是传粉者数量正以惊人的速度减少。故选B。

31.推理判断题。根据第四段中“Duringtheirstudy,Walstonandhisteamwatchedgoldenrodsoldierbeetlesboom

astheirnamesakeflower,goldenrodbloomedaroundthearrays.（在研究期间，随着以金盏花虎甲虫命名的金盏

花在阵列周围盛开，Walston和他的团队观察到金盏花虎甲虫大量繁殖）”可知，作者在第四段提到金盏花虎

甲虫是为了表明野花种植的结果。故选D。

32.词义猜测题。根据最后一段划线词上文“Theapproach飞（这种方法）”及下文“inotherpartsofthecountry一

suchasthedesertSouthwest-remainstobeseen.Nevertheless,asWalstonsays,atleastintheMidwest,tcifyou

plantit,yeah,they」lcome.”（在美国其他地区，如西南部沙漠，还有待观察。尽管如此，正如沃尔斯顿所说，

至少在中西部，“如果你种植它，是的，它们会来。”厂可知，此处指这种方法在其他地区是否能取得类似的

效果，由此可知，画线词efficacy与Effectiveness（有效性）意思相近。故选A。

D
