The leading explanation is that their smaller surface-area-to-volume ratio (比率)allows them to better conserve heat.(同 一物种的鸟类和哺乳动物在高纬度地区通常较大。主要的解释是,它们较小的表面积与体积比率使它们能 够更好地保存热量)”可知,在高纬度地区的鸟更大的原因是为了保存热量,故选A项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段 u Weather patterns are also more extreme, with 13 percent more rain falling in the wet season and 15 percent less in the dry season, and the birds lost mass more sharply after extremely dry or wet seasons. (天气模式也更加极端,雨季降雨增加13%,旱季减少15%,鸟类在极度干燥或潮湿 季节后体重急剧下降)” 可知,鸟在经历极度干燥或潮湿的极端季节时,体重急剧下降,变小的速度更快,故选D项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“Tropical (热带的)birds deep in BraziPs Amazon rainforest are shrinking and developing longer wings as they adapt to climate change but why is something of a mystery.(在巴西亚马逊雨林深处的热带鸟 类正在萎缩并长出更长的翅膀,因为它们适应了气候变化,但为什么会如此,确是一个谜)”及最后一段“But none of this can explain the team's other main finding. Wingspan has become significantly larger in one-third of the bird species over the past 40 years. “Mass is a generally good measure of body condition in birds J says Jirinec. “If they are simply not getting enough to eat, you would expect them to lose weight. But why would they have more energy to growtheirwings?” (但这些都不能解释该团队的另一个主要发现。在过去的40年中,三分之一的鸟 类物种的翼展已经显着扩大。Jirinec说:“体重通常是衡量鸟类身体状况的良好指标,如果它们只是吃不饱, 你会期望它们减肥。但是,为什么它们会有更多的能量来长出翅膀呢? ")”可知,为什么鸟类体重变小了, 翅膀却变长了,这个问题还有待解决。故选A项。【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据根据第一段 “Tropical (热带的)birds deep in Brazil's Amazon rainforest are shrinking and developing longer wings as they adapt to climate change but why is something of a mystery.(在巴西亚马逊雨林深 处的热带鸟类正在萎缩并长出更长的翅膀,因为它们适应了气候变化,但为什么会如此,确是一个谜)”可 知,这是一篇有关鸟类体型变化的科普文章,故最可能出自科学杂志。故选C项。第二节(共5小题海小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Defend Yourself Without Being DefensiveThere's a fine line between defending yourself and being defensive, but it makes a world of difference between ending and worsening a problem. If you regularly find yourself justifying yourself, blaming others, or trying to distract from the problem at hand, you may be on the defense. 16.Keep calm in the moment17. If you're feeling wound up (生气),take a deep breath and resist the urge to say anything until you'vehad a chance to think it through. You'll handle the situation better once you've had a moment to ease your tension. In many situations, it's okay to be quiet fbr a moment. Not every conflict needs to be addressed immediately.Wait to respond to the criticismA rapid reaction is usually based only on emotions. Your immediate reaction might be defensive. Pause for a moment before you reply, and don't interrupt or cut the other person off. 18 Cutting in with corrections or“That's not true“ shuts down further discussion.19An explanation can make it clearer to you what the problem is. If you don't understand where the criticism is coming from, or if the person said something vague, respond to them with, “Can you explain? or, “Could you tell me more?” 20. For example, instead of, "Don't call my design ugly. I worked hard on that," say, “What makes you say the design is ugly?" Or say something like, "What's something we can do to fix that?”Encourage the person to explainA. Explain without defensive wordsLet the person finish, even if he or she is wrongB. Talking too much is not a good way to solve the problemsGetting angry or upset immediately tends to look defensiveC. This also gives you some time to breathe so you,re less likely to respond defensivelyFortunately, there are ways to find a solution to the problem without getting defensive about it【答案】16.G17. E 18. C 19. A 20. F【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三种消除戒备心理的自我保护方法。【16题详解】上文“ There's a fine line between defending yourself and being defensive, but it makes a world of difference between ending and worsening a problem. If you regularly find yourself justifying yourself, blaming others, or trying to distract from the problem at hand, you may be on the defense.(为自己辩护和自我防卫之间有细微的差别,但是 结束问题和恶化问题之间却有天壤之别。如果你经常发现自己在为自己辩护,责怪别人,或者试图从手头 的问题上转移注意力,你可能处于防御状态。)”提到了几种容易产生心理戒备的情况,"justifyingyourself, blaming others, or trying to distract from the problem at hand”,结合下文黑体小标题,给出解决这些问题的方 式,G项“幸运的是,有一些方式可以找到解决问题的方法,而不对其产生戒备”承上启下,符合语境。 故选G。【17题详解】根据本段的小标题“Keep calm in the moment(在此刻保持冷静)”和下文“If you're feeling wound up (生气), take a deep breath and resist the urge to say anything until you've had a chance to think it through.(如果你感到紧张, 深吸一口气,在你有机会想清楚之前,克制自己不说话的冲动。)”讲如果你感到生气,深呼吸,在你有机 会把它想通之前控制住(自己)要说话的冲动。因此推断E项“一生气或沮丧就会(让你)看起来是戒备的”与 下文衔接紧密,符合语境,下文给出解决办法。故选E。【18题详解】本段的小标题是u Wait to respond to the criticism(回应批评时等待一会儿)”可知,本段建议不要立即回应批 评,根据上文中的 “ Pause fbr a moment before you reply, and don't interrupt or cut the other person off.(在回答 之前稍作停顿,不要打断或打断对方。)”可知,不要打断或中止他人说话。因此推断C项“让这个人说完, 即使他或者她是错误的”承接上文,符合语境。故选C。【19题详解】空格处是本段的小标题。根据下文 “An explanation can make it clearer to you what the problem is. If you don't understand where the criticism is coming from, or if the person said something vague, respond to them with, "Can you explain?9 or, 'Could you tell me more?,(一个解释可以使你更清楚地知道问题是什么。如果你不明白批评的来 源,或者那个人说了些模糊的话,你可以这样回答他们:“你能解释一下吗?”或者,“你能多告诉我一些吗? 可知,本段介绍了解释的重要性,一个解释可以让你更清楚问题所在。因此推断A项“鼓励人们去解释” 符合本段主旨,适合作本段的小标题。故选A。【20题详解】 上文 “An explanation can make it clearer to you what the problem is. If you don't understand where the criticism is coming from, or if the person said something vague, respond to them with, "Can you explain?' or, "Could you tell me more?,(一个解释可以使你更清楚地知道问题是什么。如果你不明白批评的来源,或者那个人说了些模糊的 话,你可以这样回答他们:“你能解释一下吗?”或者,“你能多告诉我一些吗?")"讲解释可以让你更清楚 问题所在, 下文“ For example, instead ofJDon't call my design ugly. I worked hard on that/say, "What makes you say the design is ugly?9 Or say something like JWhat's something we can do to fix that?,(例如,不要说:“不要说 我的设计丑。我在这方面很努力。”比如,“你为什么说这个设计很丑?”或者像这样说,“我们能做些什么 来解决这个问题?")”讲述了一些回应的例子,因此推断F项“这也给了你一些喘息的时间,这样你就不太 可能怀着戒备的心理进行回应”承上启下,符合语境。故选F。第三部分:语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节(共20小题海小题L5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The Kindness Tour Bus is hard to miss.
