【分析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了3D打印技术的最新应用领域：食物。3D食物打印技术

的应用可节省人们的时间和精力，且具有可持续性和满足个人营养需求等优势，但同时

试卷第10页，总23页

它也面临着诸多挑战。

12.细节理解题。根据文章第三段第四句"Someexpertsbelieveprinterscoulduse

hydrocolloids（水解胶体）fromplentifulrenewableslikealgae（茨类）andgrasstoreplacethe

familiaringredients（烹饪原料）（一些专家认为，打印机可以使用从像藻类和草等丰富

的可再生资源中获得的水解胶体来代替熟悉的烹饪原料）可知，3D食物打印用可再生

材料作为食物原料。故逃Do

13.推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Foodprintingcouldallowconsumerstoprintfoodwith

customizednutritionalcontentlikevitamins/,（食物打印能使客户打印含有定制的有营养

的比如维他命的内容的食物）可推知，3D打印食物能满足个人的营养需求。故选B。

14.细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句话“Ontopofthat,mostofthe3Dfoodprintersnow

arerestrictedtodryingredients,becausemeatandmilkproductsmayeasilygobad."（除了那

一点以外，绝大部分3D食物打印现在局限于干燥的原料，因为肉和牛奶产品可能容易

变质）可知，食品材料必须干燥是阻碍3D食品打印普及的主要因素。故选C。

15.主旨大意题。根据文章第一句There'sanewfrontierin3Dprintingthat'sbeginningto

comeintofocus:food.（3D打印的一个新领域开始成为人们关注的焦点:食物。）可知，

文章的主题为3D打印技术的新领域——食品，接下来主要介绍了这一应用的优点，也

提及了它面临的挑战。所以短文的最佳标题为“3DFoodPrinting:DeliciousNew

【分析】

本文是一篇新闻报道，主要介绍了加州通过了一项禁止销售和生产新毛皮产品的法律及

对其实施后可能出现的问题的探讨。

【详解】

16.结合空白处前“Califbmiawillbethefirststatetobanthesaleandmanufactureofnew

furproducts.”加州将是第一个禁止销售和生产新毛皮产品的州。可以推断，接下来讲述

试卷第12页，总23页

的是这个禁令会应用于哪些产品上。选项G."Thebanappliestoclothing,shoes,handbags

andotherthingsthatcontainfur."该禁令适用于服装、鞋子、手提包和其它含有毛皮的物

品。和文意相符合，故比G。

17.结合本段中“Californiaisaleaderwhenitcomestoanimalprotectionandtodaythat

leadershipincludesbanningthesaleoffur,”力口利福尼亚州在动物保护方面处于领先地位，

如今，这一领导地位包括禁止销售毛皮，可知，加州在动物保护方面所做的措施增加了

禁止销售毛皮的细节；根据空白处后一句"Wearemakingastatementtotheworld

thatbeautifulwildanimalslikebearsandtigershavenoplaceontrapeze（高空秋千）wiresor

jumpingthroughflames.”我们正在向世界宣告，像熊和老虎这样珍贵的野生动物，不应

该出现在空中飞人的钢丝上，也不应该在火焰中跳跃。可以推断，空白处论述的是在单

纯的禁止销售毛皮措施外，加州也想全世界宣告保护野生动物的重要性。选项A.-Butwe

arcdoingmorethanthat”但我们做的远不止这些。符合文意，故选A。

18.结合空白处后一句"MorethanadozenEuropeancountries,includingtheUnited

Kingdom,Austria,NorwayandtheNetherlandshavealsopassedlawstolimitthefiirtrade”

十多个欧洲国家，包括英国，奥地利，挪威和荷兰，也通过了限制毛皮贸易的法律。可

以推断，空白处的内容为除了加州之外，还有国家也通过了类似的法律。选项C.“Similar

lawshavebeencarriedoutgloballyalready”.类似的法律己经在全球范围内实施。符合文意，

故选C。

19.结合空白处后表示转折的细节"Noteveryone,however,waspleasedwiththeban.“然而，

并不是每个人都对禁令感到满意。通过对比可知，本句之前讲述的细节是对「这个禁令

赞同的人们。作为段首的句子，应为对赞同作概括。选项F.“Notsurprisingly,thebanis

welcomedbyanimalrightsactivists."亳不奇怪，这项禁令受到动物权利保护者的欢迎。和

空白处后的细节形成呼应。故选F。

20.结合空白处前“Bannmgthekillingofanimalsfortheirfurmeanskillingthefurbusiness,“

禁止猎杀动物获取毛皮意味着扼杀毛皮生意，可知接下来，作为顺承关系，理应讲到的

是没有这种生意之后的其他结果，选项D.“Andthatinturnwillleavemanypeople

unemployed."这反过来会导致很多人失业。符合文意，故选D。

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
