D.Negative.【答案】12.C13.B14.A15.D【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种通过寻找最吸引人的气味在香水制作过程中发挥作用的神经技术。【12题详析】细节理解题。根据第一段中“ Butnowmodern-dayperfumersarebeginningtolookbeyondtheirnoses.Theyare,instead,turningtoneurotechnology( 神经技术 ).(但现在，现代调香师开始把目光投向鼻子之外。相反，他们转向了神经技术。)”和第二段“Perfumenowcanbedesignedtostimulateemotionalresponsesusingneuroscents(神经气味)shownbybiometricmeasures—theuseofbiologicaldatatoanalyzehumanresponses—tohelpinspiredifferentpositivefeelingssuchascalm,joyorsleepiness.Neurotechnologycanalsohelpperfumersanalyzethechemicalcompositionoftheseneuroscentsandfindnewcombinationsofrawmaterialsthatcanproducesimilarorenhancedeffects.(香水现在可以被设计成使用生物特征测量显示的神经官能症来刺激情绪反应，即使用生物数据来分析人类反应，以帮助激发不同的积极情绪，如平静、快乐或嗜睡。神经技术还可以帮助调香师分析这些神经官能症的化学成分，并找到可以产生类似或增强效果的原材料的新组合。)”可知，神经技术通过寻找最吸引人的气味在香水制作过程中发挥作用。故选C项。【13题详析】推理判断题。根据第三段中Ferreira所说“Withsightandhearing,youcanimaginethefaceofalovedoneorthefavouritetune.It’shardtoimagineasmellthoughitcanstimulateaseriesofemotionsandmemories.(有了视觉和听觉，你可以想象所爱之人的脸或最喜欢的曲调。很难想象一种气味，尽管它能激发一系列的情绪和记忆。)”以及第四段中“Ferreiraexplainsthisisduetothestructureoftheolfactory(嗅觉的)system.(Ferreira解释说，这是由于嗅觉系统的结构。)”等内容可知，Ferreira想在第三段说明嗅觉系统的复杂性。故选B项。【14题详析】推理判断题。根据第五段中“L’Oréal,aFrenchmultinationalpersonalcarecompany,haspartneredwithneurotechnologycompanyEmotivtocreateascentchoice“experience”.During2023,shoppersatcertainstoresusedadevicetodiscoverwhichscentsappealedtothem.Resultssofarshowthat95%ofcustomerswhousedthedevicefoundtherightperfume.AnotherperfumefromGivenchy,aFrenchluxuryfashionandperfumehouse,hasbeenabestsellerforyears,whichincludesaspecialsubstancechosenafterbiometricresearch.(法国跨国个人护理公司欧莱雅与神经技术公司Emotiv合作，创造了一种气味选择‘体验’。2023年，某些商店的购物者使用一种设备来发现哪些气味吸引了他们。到目前为止的结果显示，使用该设备的客户中有95%找到了合适的香水。法国奢侈时尚和香水品牌纪梵希的另一款香水多年来一直是畅销品，其中包括一种经过生物识别研究选择的特殊物质。)”可知，提到了香水品牌是为了展示神经技术的应用。故选A项。【15题详析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中KatiePuckrik所说“Leavethemagictotheartists.Whydoweneedacomputertotelluswhatournosealreadyknows?Findinganewfavoritescentbychanceisararemomentofgraceweshouldallowourselves.(把神奇留给艺术家吧。为什么我们需要电脑来告诉我们鼻子已经知道的东西？偶然发现一种新的喜欢的气味是我们应该允许自己享受的难得的优雅时刻。)”可知，KatiePuckrik对这项新技术的态度是消极的。故选D项。第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Intoday’sconsumer-drivensociety,creditcardshavebecomeanessentialfinancialtoolformany.____16____However,thereisalsoahiddendanger:theminimumpaymenttrap.Whiletheminimumpaymentmayseemlikeamanageablewaytohandledebt,itcanquicklyleadtoanever-endingcycleoffinancialstruggles.Solet’sexploretheharmfulnatureofminimumpayments.Theminimumpaymentisamirage(海市蜃楼).Atfirstglance,theminimumpaymentappearstobeareasonablesum.It’softenasmallpercentage,around2-3%,ofthetotalbalance.Thisseeminglymanageablesumcanmakecardholdersformafalsesenseofsecurity,leadingthemtobelievethatthey’remakingprogresstowardpayingofftheirdebt.____17____Thecostofminimumpaymentsisfarfromourexpectations.Manypeoplefailtorealizethatmakingonlyminimumpaymentsbarelycoverstheinterestthataddsupontheoutstandingbalance(未偿余额),letalonereducestheprincipalamountowed.____18____Alargepartofeachpaymentwillgotowardsinterestchargesratherthanreducingthedebtitself.Consequently,peoplefindthemselvestrappedinanendlesscycleofpayingoffinterestwhiletheprincipalbalanceremainshigh.____19____Asthecyclecontinues,thebalancemayactuallygrowovertime,especiallyifnewpurchasesaremadeonthecard.Thisoccurswheninterestcontinuouslyaddsupontheexistingbalance.Whatstartedasamanageablesumcanquicklyballoonintoafinancialburden.Peoplewillprobablysufferfrompsychologicalproblems.Theconstantstressofincreasingdebtcanleadtoanxiety,depression,andfeelingsofhelplessness.____20____It’saharmfulcyclethatfeedsonitself,leavingmanyfeelingtrappedandhopeless.A.Thereisaworryingsnowballeffect.B.Actually,therealityismuchmoreconcerning.C.Theyofferconvenience,flexibility,andrewards.D.Theminimumpavementsattractpeopletopurchasemore.E.Itisessentialtofirstunderstandtheimpactoftheinterest.F.Creditcardcompaniesapplyrelativelyhighinterestrates.G.Thelongeroneremainstrapped,theharderitistobreakfree.【答案】16.C17.B18.F19.A20.G【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要讨论了信用卡最低还款额陷阱的危害性。【16题详析】上文“Intoday’sconsumer-drivensociety,creditcardshavebecomeanessentialfinancialtoolformany.(当今消费驱动的社会中，信用卡已成为许多人必不可少的金融工具。)”说明了信用卡在现代社会中的重要性。C选项“Theyofferconvenience,flexibility,andrewards.（它们提供便利性、灵活性和奖励）”与上文内容一致，因为它列出了信用卡的一些优点，并与下文构成对比，下文的“But”转折说明信用卡背后隐藏的危险。故选C。【17题详析】空前的句子“Thisseeminglymanageablesumcanmakecardholdersformafalsesenseofsecurity,leadingthemtobelievethatthey’remakingprogresstowardpayingofftheirdebt(这笔看似可控的金额可能会让持卡人形成一种虚假的安全感，让他们相信自己在偿还债务方面取得了进展)”说明了最低还款额给持卡人带来的错觉，觉得自己在偿还债务方面取得了进展，实际怎样呢？B选项“Actually,therealityismuchmoreconcerning.(实际上，现实情况更加令人担忧)”强调了实际情况比表面看起来更糟，符合上下文的语言逻辑。故选B。【18题详析】空前的句子“Manypeoplefailtorealizethatmakingonlyminimumpaymentsbarelycoverstheinterestthataddsupontheoutstandingbalance(未偿余额),letalonereducestheprincipalamountowed.(许多人没有意识到，只支付最低还款额几乎无法弥补未偿还余额的利息，更不用说减少所欠的本金了。)”说明了最低还款额仅能覆盖利息，F选项“Creditcardcompaniesapplyrelativelyhighinterestrates.(信用卡公司收取相对较高的利率)”解释了为何最低付款只够付利息。故选F。【19题详析】上段描述支付最低额款项的循环，导致余额可能增加，A选项“Thereisaworryingsnowballeffect.(存在一个令人担忧的滚雪球效应)”合理承接此意，且本空后面的句子“Asthecyclecontinues,thebalancemayactuallygrowovertime,especiallyifnewpurchasesaremadeonthecard.(随着周期的继续，余额实际上可能会随着时间的推移而增长，特别是如果在卡上进行了新的购买。)”进一步解释了这种循环的后果。故选A。【20题详析】空前的句子“Peoplewillprobablysufferfrompsychologicalproblems.Theconstantstressofincreasingdebtcanleadtoanxiety,depression,andfeelingsofhelplessness.(人们可能会出现心理问题。债务增加带来的持续压力会导致焦虑、抑郁和无助感。)”讲述了不断增加的债务带来的心理问题。G选项“Thelongeroneremainstrapped,theharderitistobreakfree.(被困的时间越长，就越难摆脱。)”进一步说明其危害的严重程度，且空格后的“aharmfulcycle”即对选项G的总结，把其称为恶循环。故选G。第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Fitnesshasn’talwaysbeenwelcomingofbodydiversity.ButforKellyKnox,amodelanddisabilityadvocate,___21___toletherdisabilityholdherbackhasbeenanincrediblesourceofstrength.Bornwithoutalowerleftarm,sheinitiallyfelt___22___.Evenso,Kelly’sabilityto___23___achallengehasbeenbuiltintoherfromtheverystart.Her___24___soundssimpleyetpowerful:“Nevergiveup!”Evenifsomethingis___25___,shereveals,shewillkeepworkinguntilshepullsthroughit.AsthefirstpeoplewithadisabilitytowalkatLondonFashionWeek,Kelly’scareerhasseenherbreakboundariesinanindustry___26___occupiedbythoseconformingto(符合)averynarrowbeautyideal.Hermostrecentworkhasbeen___27___forbigbrandsincludingDove.Whenitcomestofitnessandexercise,her___28___hasbecomeagenuinewellspringofresilience(适应力).“Bornthisway,I’veconsistentlydiscovered___29___methodstoexercisemyleftside,”sheexplains.Byfar,whathas___30___herfitnessambitionsmostismotherhood.“UntilIwaspregnant(怀孕的)withmychild,Iwasa(n)___31___inthegym,”shesays,“andthen,withmypregnancy,Igotreallysickanditwasimpossibleto___32___.”Nonetheless,sheusesherconfidencetoserveasavisible___33___forthosewhoarelikelyto___34___thetraditionalfitnessorexercisenorms.“It’sjustbreakingthose___35___,”shesays.“Youcanhaveadifferentbody!Andyoucanbebeautifulwithit.Youshouldnotbedefined.”21.A.resolving
