参考答案1.答案：fascinated解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：作为专注于研究美洲原住民文化的父母的孩子，LeGuin从小就对民间传说和神话着迷。句中已有谓语grewup,空处作非谓语,fascinate和LeGuin之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词形式作状语。2.答案：ancestors解析：考查名词的数。句意：中国传统的农历将一年分为24个节气，这是中国祖先的独特创造。空处作by的宾语，ancestor是可数名词，其前无限定词，故应用其复数形式。3.答案：generated解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：据估计，中国国内消费的大米有大约60%来自袁隆平的杂交水稻品种形成的作物。从句中已有谓语，空处需填非谓语动词；crops与generate之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，应用过去分词作定语，故填generated。4.答案：distance解析：考查名词。空处在句中作介词into的宾语，应用名词distance。5.答案：geologists解析：句意为：一群地质学家正共同努力分析近期地震活动的数据。设空处作介词of的宾语，应用名词；结合句意可知,设空处表示“地质学家”,应用geologist,为可数名词且其前有Agroupof修饰,应用名词复数形式。6.答案：as解析：句意为:如今,骑自行车运动被认为是最好的全能运动形式之一。regard...as...为固定搭配,意为“认为……是……”。7.答案：seeds解析：句意为：小满是一年中的第八个节气，意味着谷粒正变得饱满但尚未成熟。that引导宾语从句，设空处作该从句的主语，根据从句谓语arebecoming可知，此处应用名词复数形式。故填seeds。8.答案：to解析：句意为:据信,中国书法至少可以追溯到汉代。dateback(to...)为固定短语,意为“追溯到……”。故填to。9.答案：evolution解析：句意为：我们很自然地将达尔文的名字与进化论联系在一起。设空处作介词of的宾语，此处指“进化论”，应用名词。故填evolution。10.答案：disgrace解析：句意：肮脏的教室是这个学校的耻辱。由前面的dirty可知，此处应用grace的反义词disgrace。11.答案：Thefirststeptodoeverythingisadjustyourbodyto12.答案：cametoexist13.答案：Hegavemethe/achancetousemytalent(s)14.答案：alarge/widevarietyofgoods15.答案：Hegavemethe/achancetousemytalent(s)16.答案：A解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Somespeciesofwaspsrecognisetheirnestmates’facesandacquireimpressivesocialskills.Forexample,theycaninferthefightingstrengthofotherwaspsrelativetotheirownjustbywatchingotherwaspsfightamongthemselves.”可知，一些种类的黄蜂有一定的认知能力，它们能识别同伴面孔并推断其他黄蜂的战斗力，由此可知，作者举黄蜂的例子是为了证明昆虫显示出智力的迹象。故选A项。17.答案：D解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Thebumblebeesshowedasignificantchangeintheirbehaviourafterbeingattackedbytheroboticspider.Perhapsunsurprisingly,theylearnttoavoidflowerswithspiders”及scannedeveryflowerbeforelanding可知，在遭到机器蜘蛛的攻击之后，大黄蜂们学着避开有蜘蛛的花朵，并且在降落之前会仔细地查看每一朵花，以防遇到自己的天敌——蜘蛛。由此可推知，画线单词意为“仔细地，小心地”，与D项含义相近。故选D项。18.答案：C解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Curiously,however,theysometimesevenfledfromimaginarythreats,scanningandthenabandoningaperfectlysafe,spider-freeflower.Althoughthisincidentalobservation…”可知，在这项实验中，令人出乎意料的是大黄蜂可能会放弃没有蜘蛛的花朵。故选C项。19.答案：D解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第二段中的“Giventhesubstantialworkonthecomplexityofinsectcognition,itmightseemsurprisingthatittookscientistssolongtoaskifinsectsarethatsmartandsentient.”、第三段中的itdidopenthedoortotheideathatsuchstatesmightexistininsects和第四段中的“Someresearchsuggestedthatinsectsmighthavepositivestatesofmind.”可知，本文开篇提出论点：昆虫是否有感知能力，之后则通过实验和研究来证明昆虫能够识别来自天敌的威胁并主动避险，并能通过摄入尼古丁等药物进行自我疗伤等。故本篇文章主要讨论了昆虫是否有感知能力。故选D项。20.答案：and解析：句意为：大熊猫国家公园位于中国西部地区，横跨四川、甘肃和陕西三省，目前已经建成，现有67个大熊猫保护区。分析句子结构可知，本句主语为TheGiantPandaNationalPark，谓语hasbeendeveloped和includes之间为顺承关系，应用并列连词and连接。故填and。21.答案：a解析：句意为
