知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：Excerpt1講述了在接種疫苗后，身體自然可以跟這種疾病進(jìn)行對(duì)

抗。因此選項(xiàng)B.“很輕松地與之對(duì)抗”為正確選項(xiàng)。

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：題干中的“thenewbypasstreatment”出自Excerpt6的第一段（文中用的

是“anewtechnique"）。第一段提到新搭橋手術(shù)時(shí)指出，這種手術(shù)的鉆孔步驟避免了

傳統(tǒng)搭橋手術(shù)的大范圍侵入，將給成千上萬(wàn)有心臟病發(fā)作危險(xiǎn)的人們帶來(lái)希望，第

復(fù)。這說(shuō)明，新手術(shù)不會(huì)給患者帶來(lái)創(chuàng)傷，并且恢復(fù)的時(shí)間也短。A與此意符合，

為正確答案。

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：本題的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有A項(xiàng)為正確答案。這可從文中的“Sincethe

earlyeightieswehavebeenonlytooawareofthedevastatingeffectsoflarge-scale

environmentalpollution.”推向。B項(xiàng)說(shuō)污染在工業(yè)化的國(guó)家最嚴(yán)重，這未在文中提

及。C項(xiàng)說(shuō)污染緣于國(guó)家之間惡劣的關(guān)系，在文中并未涉及到。D項(xiàng)只講了污染是

由人類為了自身利益而造成的，這屬于發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家的情況，但沒(méi)包含發(fā)展中國(guó)家的情

況。

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：文章Excerpt4第二段中的“Theaveragerichworldresidentaddsabout

eachThirdWorldcitizen.”可知，第三世界國(guó)家每人每年向大氣中排放的二氧化碳

不足3.2噸的四分之一，也就是不到一噸的二氧化碳。B項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容符合文意。

25>Whatshouldallcountriesdotohelpsolvetheproblemofglobalwarming?

A^Theyshouldreplacealltheharmfulsubstances.

B、Theyshouldwillinglyundertakelegalcommitmentsabouttheirenergyuses.

C、Theyshouldholdanotherworldconferenceonclimatechange.

D^Theyshouldprovideadvancedtechnology.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：根據(jù)Excerpt6中的“Wemust,however,findasolutiontothethreatof

globalwarmingearlyinthe21century.Suchacommitmentwouldrequireadegreeof

sharedvisionandcommonresponsibilitiesnewtohumanity.”可知,在21世紀(jì)早期，

我們必須找到解決全球變暖威脅的辦法；這樣的義務(wù)要求人們達(dá)成一定程度的共

識(shí)，要求人們共同承擔(dān)人類的新責(zé)任?？梢?jiàn)，要解決全球變暖問(wèn)題需要人們共同承

擔(dān)人類的新責(zé)任。B項(xiàng)與文章的意思相符。
