方建一座發(fā)電站，”安德森說，“這樣人們就能在他們想要的環(huán)境中成功地生活,并獲得電力，

高的電力成本。故選D。

5.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“WithintwomonthsofthesystembeinginstalledinMay2016,

8.C9.B10.A11.B

【導(dǎo)語】

這是一篇說明文，文章主要介紹了一項對昆蟲夜晚趨光的研究，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)昆蟲被進化困住,

無休止地圍繞人工照明轉(zhuǎn)，這啟示我們可以改變?nèi)嗽旃獾姆较?，更好地保護昆蟲。

8.詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線短語下文“Populartheoriesproposethatmothsandotherinsects

答案第2頁，共11頁

將到來的危險而飛向光明?，F(xiàn)在研究人員相信他們有了一個更有說服力的答案）”可知，對于

昆蟲為何會在夜間聚集在燈光周圍這一問題沒有標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案，故可推知劃線短語所在句意為

“昆蟲為何會在夜間聚集在燈光周圍，這一科學(xué)問題從未得到明確解釋”，推測劃線短語nailed

down意為“明確解釋"，與Definedaccurately意義相近。故選C。

9.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“Mothsfoundthemselvestiltingtheirbackstostreetlamps.This

causedthemtocirclearoundthelampsendlessly,theinsectstrappedbytheirevolution.（飛蛾發(fā)現(xiàn)

自己把背向路燈傾斜。這導(dǎo)致它們無休止地繞著燈轉(zhuǎn)，這些昆蟲被它們的進化困住了）”可知，

飛蛾把背向路燈傾斜，這導(dǎo)致它們無休止地繞著燈轉(zhuǎn)，故是不正確的飛行姿態(tài)導(dǎo)致飛蛾無休

止地繞著燈轉(zhuǎn)。故選B。

10.推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段"Thereare,Fabianbelieves,helpfullessonsfromtheresearch.

'Whatthistellsusisthatthedirectionofartificiallightmatters.Couldwechangelighting

是告訴我們可以改變?nèi)嗽旃獾姆较颍估ハx不被困住，從而更好地保護昆蟲。故選A。

11.主旨大意題。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容，結(jié)合第一段中“Nowresearchersbelievetheyhaveamore

所以B項“為什么人造光和進化會困住昆蟲？”符合題意。故選B。

12.B13.A14.C15.B

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了作者從異種器官移植報道中獲得靈感創(chuàng)作小說

《PigHeartBoy》的故事。

12.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段"Backinthemid1990s,Ireadanewspaperarticlewrittenbya

讀到一篇醫(yī)生寫的文章，他猜測我們最終將不得不轉(zhuǎn)向異種移植，作為解決人體器官捐獻者

缺乏的可能方案）“可知，作者寫PigHeartBoy的靈感來自新聞。故選B。

13.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“Nowsomepeoplethinkthatthesubjectmatterisnotsuitablefor

children,criticizingthecruelandinhumanwaysofxenotransplantation.（現(xiàn)在有些人認為這個題
