舒适的城市生活，前往位于•大凉山深处、被薄雾笼罩的偏远山村担任在线教师，那里长期缺

少平等且优质的教育资源，

【4题详析】

(heoutside,whichmaderegularonlineclassesimpossiblelorlocalkids.(更糟糕的是，糟糕的网

络信号曾完全将这个村庄与外界隔绝，导致当地孩子无法进行正常的线上课程学习）”及第三

段“Thefaintnetworksignalofteninterruptedherteachingsuddenly/微弱的网络信号常常突然中

断她的教学）”可知，这个村子常规的线上课程所面临的首要重大挑战是不稳定的网络经常使

连接断开。

【5题详析】

细节理解题。根据第四段“Shetriedherbesttofixbasicnetworkequipmentwithlocalvillagers'

行耐心交流。她搭建了一个简易的“云教室”，并提供了生动的口常在线课程，包括语文、数

学和某础英语）“可.知，她主要通过建立云课堂、开设口营课程改善村里的学习条件。

曾经羞涩沉默的孩子们变得更加渴望知识，课堂上积极地提出问题，分享他们内心微小的愿

望。温暖的笑声充满了这个小教室，越来越多的孩子也加入了进来）“可知，杨梅面对艰苦环

境从不灰心、不放弃，坚持留在山村帮助留守儿童，说明坚定有决心的和关爱他人的。

【7题详析】

主旨大意题。根据第一段“YangMei,a22-year-oldcollegegraduate,madeaselflessdecisionto

【答案】8.B9.C10.A11.D

【语篇解读】文章主要介绍了诺贝尔经济学奖得主丹尼尔・卡尼曼提出的峰终定律：人们对

•段经历的整体印象，仅由体验的最强烈的感受点和结束时刻的感受决定，和体验总时长、

普通过程无关，该定律解释了人对经历的选择性记忆特征。

【8题详析】

推理判断题。根据第一段“Whenrecallingtheexperienceyearslater,whatremainsvividinyour

mindisthetensionatthehighestpoint,thethrillingweightlessnesswhiledivingdown,andthe

strongsenseofexcitementwhenitfinished.Thelongandtiringwait,however,hasfadedfromyour

memorycompletely.(多年后回想这段经历时，脑海中清晰浮现的正是那最高点的紧张感、急

速下降时的惊险失重感，以及结束时强烈的兴奋感。然而，漫K而疲惫的等待过程却己完全

从你的记忆中淡去)"及第二段"ThisisexplainedbythePeak-EndRule,developedbyDaniel

Kahneman,aNobelPrize-winningeconomist.Theruleindicatesthatouroverallimpressionofan

experienceisdeterminednotbyitstotallengthorordinarymoments,butbyhowwefeelatitsmost

intensepeakandfinalmoment,...)editorratherthanafaithfulcamera.(这一现象可以用丹尼尔•卡

尼曼提出的“峰终定律''来解释。该定律指出，我们对一次经历的整体印象并非由其总时长或

普通时刻所决定，而是由我们在最激烈高峰时刻和最终时刻的感受所决定的……广可知，峰

终定律解释了人对经历的有选择性的记忆。

【9题详析】

细节理解题。跟据第三段“Participantswereexposedtotwopainfulperiods.Thefirstwasa30-

secondloud,sharpnoise.Thesecondincludedthesame30-secondunpleasantnoisefollowedby10

secondsofsofternoise,makingitlastlongerandcontainmorediscomfortintotal.Surprisingly,

mostparticipantspreferredtoexperiencethesecondoneagain,asitsrelativelygentleending

entirelytransformedtheirmemoryofthesuffering.（参与者经历了两个痛苦的阶段。第一个阶段

是30秒的响亮、刺耳的咦音。第二个阶段则是相同的30秒的不愉快噪音，随后是10秒的

较轻噪音，这样整个过程就更长且包含更多的不适感。令人惊讶的是，大多数参与者都更愿

意再次体验第二种情况，因为它的相对温和的结局彻底改变了他们对那段痛苦经历的记忆）”

可知，第二次体验的结尾是更柔和的噪声，结尾感受更好。

【10撅详析】

推理判断题。根据第二段“Thenileindicatesthatouroverallimpressionofanexperienceis

determinednotbyitstotallengthorordinarymoments,butbyhowwefeela（itsmostintensepeak

andfinalmoment,...（该定律指出，我们对一次经历的整体印象并非由其总时长或普通时刻所

决定，而是由我们在最激烈高峰时刻和最终时刻的感受所决定的……广及最后一段“Therule

day'spleasantmemory,whileIKEAandStarbuckswincustomersbycreatingimpressivepeaksand

warmendings.（这条规则也适用于人际关系和商业领域。睡前的一次争吵可能会毁掉一整天

的美好回忆，而宜家和星巴克则通过创造令人印象深刻的高峰和温馨的结局来赢得顾客）”可

知，根据该定律，一次经历结束时的感受是最令人记忆深刻的。A项中的案例：给顾客温暖

的告别就是优化体验的结尾，符合峰终定律的应用。

【11题详析】

主旨大意题。才艮据第二段"ThisisexplainedbythePeak-EndRule,developedbyDanielKalnicniaii,

aNobelPrizc-winningeconomist.Theruleindicatesthatouroverallimpressionofanexperienceis

determinednotbyitstotallengthorordinarymoments,butbyhowwefeelatitsmostintensepeak

“峰终定律”来解释。该定律指出，我们对一次经历的整体印象并非由其总时长或普通时刻所

决定，而是由我们在最激烈高峰时刻和最终时刻的感受所决定的……广可知，本文主要结合

事例介绍了''峰终定律"，即一次经历中最关键时刻的体验决定我们以后对此的回忆。

【答案】12.C13.A14.D15.B

【语篇解读】本文探讨了全球粮食安全面临的紧迫挑战及各国应对策略。

【12题详析】

细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的句子“Earlhpossessesalimitedamountofarable（适合耕种

的）land,aboutonethirdofitalreadydegraded.Withtheglobalpopulationprojectedtoreach10

billionby2050,theurgentneedtoincreaseproductionhasbroughtfoodsecurityfirmlyintothe

spotlight.（地球上可耕种的土地数量有限，大约三分之一已经退化。预计到2050年全球人口

将达到100亿，增加产量的迫切需求使粮食安全成为人们关注的焦点。）“可知，有限的可耕

种土地和不断增长的人口使得粮食安全成为一个紧迫的问题。

【13题详析】

推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的句子“Globalfoodproductionisalsoworryinglycentralizedin

iiiciclysixuuuiilrics-Canada,theU.S.,Brazil,Argcnliiia,Russia,andUkraine.Tlicscnations

accountforanoverlylargeshareofinternationallytradedbasiccrops,particularlygrainsand

仅六个国家一加拿大、美国、巴西、阿根廷、俄罗斯和乌克兰。这些国家在国际贸易的基

本作物中占了过大的份额，尤其是支撑世界大部分热量摄入的谷物和油籽。）”可知，作者提

到这六个国家是想表明全球粮食供应高度集中。

【14题详析】

词句猜测题。根据文章第四段中的句子“Thatstrainisnotlimitedtoland.Aspeopleflocktocities,

farmingisbecomingararejob.strain不仅限于土地。随着人们涌向城市，农业正成为一

份罕见的工作。）”以及前文“Whileagriculturehasalwaysbeencyclical,governedbypredictable

seasonalpatterns,climatechangeintroducesanewlayerofuncertainty,asextremeweathercan

destroymajorpercentagesofharvestsatanygiventimewithlittlepriorwarning.（虽然农业一直

是周期性的，受可预测的季节模式支配，但气候变化带来了一层新的不确定性，因为极端天

气可以在任何给定时间在几乎没有预警的情况下摧毁大部分收成。户提到的粮食安全面临的

挑战，可知strain的意思是“压力”,与pressure意义一致。

【15题详析】

推理判断题。根据文章最后•段中的句子“Themajortaskwillbeproducingmorewithless,and

口国转变为2026年的世界领先出口国。与此同时，随着一些地区水资源日益短缺和农药法

规收紧，中国和沙特阿拉泊等国家正在投资受保护作物、温室大棚和温室以确保供应。）”可

推断出，各国正在寻求提高粮食产量的方法.
