D.dolphinsshouldbegiventheirownlivingspace

【答案】21.A22.B23.D

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲解并描述Lucy一家人坐船欣赏海豚时收到了意外大礼，海豚把一条

大鳄鱼送到他们船上当晚餐。这是海豚和人类沟通互动的好玩例子。文章呼吁人们像对待人

类一样对待海豚，让它们有自己的生活空间。

【21题详解】

词义揣测题。其次段中的Thegroupwereenjoyingwatchingthemammalplayinginthewater

whenitsuddenlydiveddownandcaughtthecodbeforeplacingitneartoLucyWatkins,

14.（正值这家人欣赏海豚在水里游戏时，它却突然潜到水下抓住一条鳏鱼，之后竟然把他送

到了14岁的LucyWatkins身边。）可知，句中的suddenly说明海豚的举动没有预兆，因此

推断teenager（指Lucy）感到惊讶，故选A。

【22题详解】

细微环节理解题。依据第三段中的Lucyandhergrandparentswonderedwhethertheyshould

pickupthefishincasethedolphinwanteditfortea.可知，露西和她的祖父母都不

知道是否应当收下鳄侑，因为他们不确定这是否是海豚自己的点心。所以他们没有立即接受

鳄鱼，是因为他们不确定这是海豚自己的点心还是给特地送给他们的礼物。故选B。

【23题详解】

推理推断题。依据最终一段中的Wewouldjustmakeourusualappealforpeopleto

generallykeeptheirdistance.可知,我们也会像对待人类一样对待海豚，让它们有自己

的生活空间。因此推断应当让海豚有自己的生活空间。故选D。

B

【答案】24.C25.C26.A27.B

【解析】

这是一篇争论文。文章主要讲解并描述了给一本书做标记的好处，可以让书中思想成为自己

的一部分。

[24题详解】

推理推断题。依据文章第三段的Thethirdkindhasseveralbooks,ormany,eachof'which

isworn,shakenandloosenedduetocontinuoususe,withmarksandscratches（scribbled）

fromfronttoback.可知，第三种拥有者是，有几本书，或者很多，每一本都因持续运用而

磨损、摇摆和松动，从前到后有记号和擦伤（涂写）。由此推想，第三种拥有者肯定是主动的

阅读者。C.activereaders（主动的读者）符合以上推根，故诜C项。

【25题详解】

细微环节理解题。依据文章最终一段的Reading,ifitisactive,thinkingtendsto

expressitselfinoralorwrittenlanguage.Markedbooksareusuallyconsidered

books.（阅读，假如它是活跃的，思索倾向于用口头或书面的语言来表达自己。有记号的书

通常是经过深思熟虑的书）可知，在书上做标记意味着在书上写下自己通过阅读得到的想法。

C.writinginthespacetheideasyougetthroughcarefulreading（在书上的空白处

写上通过细致阅读得到的想法）符合以上说法，故选C项。

【26题详解】

推理推断题。依据文章最终一段Reading,ifitisactive,thinkingtendstoexpress

itselfinoralorwrittenlanguage.（阅读，假如它是活跃的，思索倾向于用口头或书

面的语言来表达自己）可推想，作者说的做标记是指自己阅读时读者任何经过深思熟虑的想

法。A.Whylevelyuuhavegivendeepthuughltowhilereading.（任何你在阅读时经过

深思熟虑的想法）符合以上推想，故选A项。

【27题详解】

细微环节理解题。依据其次段的Ful1ownershipcomesonlywhenyouhavemadeitapart

ofyourself,andthebestwaytomakeyourselfapartofitisbywritinginit.（只

有当你让书成为你的一部分时，书才真正属于你，而最好的方法就是通过在书上做笔记让你

成为书的一部分）和最终i段的Finally,writinghelpsyourememberthethoughtsyouhad,

orthethoughtstheauthorexpressed.（最终,在书上做笔记可以帮你记住你的想法或者

作者所表达的想法）可知，给一本书做标记的一大优势是让自己成为其中的一部分。B.I。make

yourselfapartofit（让你自己成为书的一部分）符合以上说法,故选B项。

【答案】28.D29.D30.B31.C

【解析】

【分析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍将米的新能源。尽管煤、石油、自然气等化石燃料仍占全球能源

供应的85%左右，但将来属于风能和太阳能等可再生能源，这一点比以往任何时候都更加清晰。

向可再生能源的转移正在加速世界范围内的发展:它们现在占新能源运行的一半以上。

【28题详解】

细微环节理解题。依据第三段中Whiletherestoftheworldtakesthelead,especially

ChinaandEurope,theUnitedStatesisalsoseeinganamazingshift.InMarch,for

thefirsttime,windandsolarpoweraccountedformorethan10percentofthepower

generatedintheUS,reportedtheUSEnergyInfornationAdministration.”当世界其

他地区，尤其是中国和欧洲，处于领先地位时，美国也看到了惊人的转变。据美国能源情报

署(USEnergyInformationAdministration)报道,今年3月,风能和太阳能首次占到美国

发电量的10%以.上。“utheUnitedStatesisalsoseeinganamazingshiftw,uamazing

shiftn与D阐述的“progressinggreatly”对应，表示一个好的进展(转变)。故选D。

【29撅详解】

细微环节理解题。依据第四段中ButthatmessagedidnotplaywellwithmanyinIowa,

wherewindturbinesdotthefieldsandprovide36percentofthestate,selectricity

generation—andwheretechenterpriselikeMicrosoftarebeingattractedbythe

availabilityofcleanenergytopowertheirdatacenters."但这一信息在爱荷华州并

不受欢迎，那里风力涡轮机遍布各地，为该州供应了36$的电力，而像微软这样的科技企业正

被清洁能源的可用性所吸引，为他们的数据中心供应动刀°”可知科技企业正在投资清洁能

源。故选D。

【30题详解】

细微环节理解题。依据第五段中anincreaseinthestoragecapacityofbatteriesisIraking

theirabilitytokeeppowerflowingaroundtheclockmorelikely."电池存储容量的

增加使它们更有可能保持24小时供电。”和第六段中Althoughelectriccarsarestill

uiiuoiiiiiioiionloadsnow,thisinasbiveiiiveblmeiilcouldchangeIliepiuluielapidlyin

comingyears.“尽管电动汽车目前在马路上还不常见，但这笔巨额投资可能会在将来几年快

速变更这一局面。”由此可知，它的持续供应正在成为现实。故选B。

[31题详解】

推理推断题。依据最终一段WhatWashingtondoes—ordoesn,tdo—topromote

<11ternativeenergymaymeanlessandlessatatineofaglobalshiftinthcught.

美国政府在推广替代能源方面所做的一一或不做的一一可能怠味着意义越米越小。”由此可

知，从最终一段可以推断处，美国政府并没有真正激励运用可再生能源。故选C。

【点睛】在细微环节考查题中有一类事实细微环节题。该题属于细微环节类型的阅读理解题，

一般只针对某个特定的细微环节，题型可以多种多样。此类题型i般分两种。第i种是干脆

理解题，在原文中可以干脆找到答案。其次种是词义转换题，正确选项是原文有关词语和句

子的转换。做此类试题肯定要抓住事务发生的时间、地点、人物、发展过程和结局等环节，

所选答案肯定要符合原文，切不行望文生义。本题第3小题，依据第五段中anincreaseinthe

storagecapacityofbatteriesismakingtheirabi1itytokeeppowerflowingaround

theclockmorelikely.“电池存储容量的增加使它们更有可能保持24小时供电。”和第六

段中Althoughelectriccarsarestilluncommononroadsnow,thismassiveinvestment
