37、A。58【答案】：D【解析】：此题为词汇题。画线句为此段首句，后面的句子均在解释加热器的特点，由后文中的“wall to wall和“floor to ceiling，以及直接介绍其他加热器的区别的信息，可知evenly 译为均匀的，应选D。59【答案】：A【解析】：此题为主旨题。文章最后一句给出了明确的指示。B篇60【答案】：C【解析】：此题为细节题，考生需要直接定位到文章的具体情节。第二段当中的“Is she going to make it 应当译为“她能不能撑得住，“她能不能活的下来，故答案选C61【答案】：C【解析】：此题为细节题，考生需要直接定位到文章的具体细节。第四段整段是对于给

38、Grace安装尾巴的介绍。此题易混淆选项为B。不选B的原因是，安装尾巴的初衷并非是想让Grace舒服。安装尾巴的原因是因为没有了尾巴的Grace在游泳当中出现了困难，所以要安个尾巴去解决这个问题，使它变舒服只不过是附带的一个结果，故B不对。62【答案】：D【解析】：此题为主旨题。记叙文主旨绝大多数出现在文章最后，本文也不例外。最后一句中的courage是此题的题眼。作者在最后告诉读者本文写作目的，即鼓励人们在逆境中要勇敢要有勇气，故答案为D。C篇63【答案】：B【解析】：此题为细节题。从文章首段重点“paparazzi等词可以看出本文是一篇以明星隐私不能得到良好保护为主题的文章。此题中ACD三

40、最后谈到明星们的种种无奈，故答案选D。D篇67【答案】：D【解析】：此题为细节题。此题是一道典型调查研究类文章考察实验结果的题目。D选项为一段尾句的同义改写，故正确。68【答案】：A【解析】：此题为细节题。此题考查的是实验目的。考生可瞬间排除BCD两个选项因为他们和实验目的，multitask的能力毫无关系。调查研究类文章一切实验均会围绕实验假设展开，与之无关的选项可直接排除。69【答案】：C【解析】：此题为细节题，考查实验结果。此题和67题考查思路一样，答案C选项和第一题中的D也有相似之处。准确出处在文章第四段，应选C。70【答案】：C【解析】：此题为细节题，考查实验结果。最后一段当中的“p
