答案以及解析1.答案：C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段"Themoreadvertisementstheysee，themorelikelytheyaretoinsistonpurchasingitemswhengoingwiththeirparentsandperhapsmakeafussiftold'no'.Allthatmayincreaseparents'overallstresswellbeyondasingleshoppingtrip."saidleadstudyauthorMatthewLapierre.（該研究的主要作者M(jìn)atthewLapierre說(shuō)："他們看到的廣告越多，就越有可能在和父母一起購(gòu)物時(shí)堅(jiān)持購(gòu)買物品，如果被告知'不'，他們可能會(huì)大驚小怪。所有這些都可能會(huì)增加父母的整體壓力，遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)一次購(gòu)物之旅。"）可知，MatthewLapierre在研究中試圖探索孩子們看電視給父母帶來(lái)的壓力。故選C。2.答案：A解析：詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)劃線詞所在句"Commercialcontentisthereforareason：to

elicitpurchasingbehavior.（商業(yè)內(nèi)容的存在是有原因的：elicit購(gòu)買行為。）并結(jié)合常識(shí)可知，商業(yè)內(nèi)容會(huì)引發(fā)購(gòu)買行為。故elicit意為"引發(fā)；引起"。A.Cause引起；B.Challenge挑戰(zhàn)；C.Practise練習(xí)；D.Guarantee保證。故選A。3.答案：B解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段Advertisersarefindingcreativewaysaroundthat，forexample，throughproductplacementandintegrated（綜合的）brandinginashow，Lapierresaid.Andadvertisingtowardchildrenremainsamultibillion-dollarindustry.（Lapierre說(shuō)，廣告商正在尋找創(chuàng)造性的方法來(lái)解決這一問(wèn)題，例如在節(jié)目中植入產(chǎn)品和整合品牌。面向兒童的廣告仍然是一個(gè)價(jià)值數(shù)十億美元的行業(yè)）可推知，Lapierre認(rèn)為流媒體服務(wù)中投放廣告是一種向兒童推銷產(chǎn)品或品牌的隱蔽方式。故選B。4.答案：D解析：標(biāo)題判斷題。根據(jù)第一段There'sbadnewsforparentswhofrequentlyleavetheirkidsinfrontoftheTV：Itmightactuallyendupleavingmomsanddadsmorestressed.（對(duì)于那些經(jīng)常把孩子放在電視機(jī)前的父母來(lái)說(shuō)，有一個(gè)壞消息：這實(shí)際上可能會(huì)讓父母壓力更大）可知，本文主要介紹一項(xiàng)研究結(jié)果孩子接觸電視會(huì)讓父母壓力更大。D項(xiàng)"Kids'exposuretoTVmakesparentsmorestressed（孩子接觸電視會(huì)讓父母壓力更大）"最能概括本文主旨。故選D。5.答案：B解析：考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。由第二段"Thelawbegangoingintoeffectlastyear,requiringhensandvealcalvestobegivenmorespacetolivein.""thelawwillrequirethatalleggssoldinCaliforniacomefromcage-freehensandthatporksoldinthestatecomefrombreedingpigsthatarenotheldincages."可知，新動(dòng)物福利法要求圈養(yǎng)母雞和肉用小豬需給予更多的空間，不能讓它們活動(dòng)受限。故B項(xiàng)正確。6.答案：C解析：考查詞義推斷。由第三段"butothershavespentthelastfewyearsfightingthelawratherthanfiguringouthowtoputitintopractice."可知，其他生產(chǎn)商過(guò)去幾年都在抗議新動(dòng)物福利法，but表示轉(zhuǎn)折，說(shuō)明"SomebigcompanieslikeHormelFoodshavepledgedtodosofully,"一些大公司是愿意去按新法的規(guī)定去做的，所以pledged的意思是承諾。故C項(xiàng)正確。7.答案：B解析：考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。由第三段"Porkproducershavehadthelongesttimetocomply."豬肉生產(chǎn)商需要很長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間去遵守這個(gè)新的動(dòng)物福利法，"SomebigcompanieslikeHormelFoodshavepledgedtodosofully,butothershavespentthelastfewyearsfightingthelawratherthanfiguringouthowtoimplementit."大的生產(chǎn)商承諾去做，其他生產(chǎn)商過(guò)去幾年都在抗議新法。故B項(xiàng)正確。8.答案：D解析：考查推理判斷。由第二段"Thesearehumanestepsdesignedtolifttheseanimalsoutofstructuresthatbarelyallowthemtomove."第三段"Sofar,thatfighthasbeenawasteoftimethatporkproducerscouldhavebetterspentfiguringouthowtoreconfiguretheirfarms."以及最后一段"It'sapricetheanimalsshouldn'thavetopay."可知，作者認(rèn)為新法規(guī)定商業(yè)養(yǎng)殖動(dòng)物需給予更多的活動(dòng)空間是非常人性化的關(guān)懷與做法，進(jìn)而帶來(lái)的豬肉價(jià)格成本上漲也是人類應(yīng)付出的代價(jià)。豬肉生產(chǎn)商對(duì)新法的抵制毫無(wú)意義浪費(fèi)時(shí)間。所以作者對(duì)新法非常支持。故D項(xiàng)正確。9.答案：C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的第三句Butreservoirs(水庫(kù))andwateringsystemsforagriculturecausedittodisappear可知，但是用于農(nóng)業(yè)的水庫(kù)和灌溉系統(tǒng)使圖萊里湖(TulareLake)消失了。即是人類行為導(dǎo)致了該湖泊的消失。10.答案：D解析：詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)此處前后文的內(nèi)容可知，加州近年來(lái)天氣非常干燥。城市和農(nóng)村社區(qū)都為今年的冬雨歡呼雀躍。如果天氣慢慢變暖，雪不會(huì)很快融化，可能很少或沒(méi)有洪水。但是，如果天氣迅速變熱，將帶來(lái)太多的積雪融化的麻煩。此處acclaimed的意思是"歡迎"，與welcomed是同義詞。11.答案：B解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段的第三句Iftheweathergetswarmerslowly,thesnowwillnotmeltquicklyandtheremaybelittleornoflooding可知，如果天氣慢慢變暖，雪不會(huì)很快融化，可能很少或沒(méi)有洪水。即加州人期待天氣將逐漸變暖。12.答案：A解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段最后兩句的內(nèi)容可知，"這一直是一個(gè)工程問(wèn)題，"他說(shuō)。"這是一個(gè)沒(méi)有出口的浴缸"。即這種地理環(huán)境排水困難，對(duì)付洪水是很困難的。13.答案：D解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段第二和三句"Thismeansmorehomes,roadsandotherinfrastructure.InIndiaalone,acitythesizeofChicagowillhavetobedevelopedeveryyeartomeetdemandforhousing."(這意味著更多的房屋、道路和其他基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。僅在印度，芝加哥這樣規(guī)模的城市每年都要開(kāi)發(fā)，以滿足住房需求。)可知，第1段提到印度是為了證明城市人口的增加意味著需要更多的房屋等基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施，由此導(dǎo)致了對(duì)建筑材料的巨大需求。故選D項(xiàng)。14.答案：C解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段最后一句"Inaddition,engineeredtimberisusuallymadeintolargesectionsinafactoryforfutureuse,whichreducesthenumberofdeliveriestoaconstructionsite."(此外，工程木材通常在工廠生產(chǎn)成大塊以備將來(lái)使用，這減少了交付到建筑工地的數(shù)量。)可知，關(guān)于工程木材我們能了解到它有助于在運(yùn)輸中節(jié)省能源。故選C項(xiàng)。15.答案：B解析：猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)文章第四段第一句和二句"AccordingtoMichaelRamageoftheUniversityofCambridge,awoodenb
