activemice.Theactivityofcertainbraingenesdeclined,alongwithlevelsofdopamine.（后續(xù)研究表明，抗生素治

療影響了先前活躍的小鼠的大腦。某些大腦基因的活性隨著多巴胺水平的下降而下降。）“可知抗生素療法后，

老鼠某些大腦基因的活動減少了，隨著減少的還有多巴胺的數(shù)量。故選B。

【10題詳解】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞前面的句子"It叩pearsthosebacteriasendasignalthatinterfereswithanenzyme（酶）

responsibleforbreakingdowndopamineinthebrain,（這些細菌似乎發(fā)出了一種信號，干擾了一種負責分解大腦

中多巴胺的酶）”可知，細菌會發(fā)送一個信號，這個信號會干擾醐。而這種酶可以分解大腦中的多巴胺。如

果酶被干擾妨礙，那么多巴胺就不會被分解。故在大腦獎勵中心增多的chemical就是多巴胺。故選B。

雜志上的研究表明，腸道中的細菌可能是運動欲望差異的背后原因。）”以及通讀全文，文章論述的是一個

研究結果即腸道細菌影響人們的鍛煉意愿。C選項“Gutbacteriamatterinkeepinghumansactive.（腸道細菌

對保持人體活力很重要。）”概括文章標題。故選C。

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞上文"Theirstudyconcludedthatmostlinksbetweenlifesatisfactionandsocialmediause

were（他們的研究得出結論，生活滿意度和社交媒體使用之間的大部分聯(lián)系是）”及下文“accountingforless

than1%ofateenager'swellbeing.（占青少年幸福的不到1%）“可知，生活滿意度和社交媒體使用之間的大部

分聯(lián)系是微不足道的。由此可知，劃線詞trivial與insignificant（微不足道的）意思一致。故選A。

【15題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的"DrMaxDavie,officerforhealthimprovementattheRoyalCollegeofPediatrics

andChildHealth,callsthestudya“smallfirststep”,buthesaidtherewereotherissuestoexplore,suchasscreen

Bo

【19題詳解】
