21、nd forest revealed their purples, blues and green. Then there was the old apple tree. It sits on an undeveloped lot in my neighborhood. It belongs to no one and therefore to everyone. The trees dark branches stretch out in unpruned(未经修剪的)abandon. Until last year, I thought I was the only one aware o

22、f this tree. And then one day, in a bit of spring madness, I set out to prune(修剪)a few disorderly branches.

23、 personal gardens. My mobile-home neighbor was the first to speak. “Youre not going to cut it down, are you?” she asked anxiously. Soon, half the neighborhood joined me under the apple tree. It struck me that I had lived there for five years and only now was learning these peoples names, what they d

24、id for a living and how they passed the winter. It was as if the old apple tree was gathering us under its branches for the purpose of both acquaintanceship and shared wonder.

29、No sooner had I arrived under the tree than neighbors opened their windows and stepped onto their porches.

30、e asked anxiously. (我刚到树下，邻居们就打开窗户，走出门廊。这些人我几乎不认识，但就好像我不请自来地进入了他们的私人花园。我的活动房屋邻居是第一个开口的。“你不会把它砍倒吧?”她焦急地问。)”可知，邻居们打开窗户并走出来，是因为他们想知道这棵树会发生什么事。故选A。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“It was as if the old apple tree was gathering us under its branches for the purpose of both acquaintanceship and shared wonder. (就好像那棵老苹果树把

31、我们聚集在它的树枝下，目的是为了认识我们，分享我们的惊奇。)”可推断，那棵苹果树成为邻居们之间是一种纽带。故选C。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“He remarked how this recent winter had been especially long and complained of not having seen or spoken at length to anyone in our neighborhood.

And its a common debate between couples the perfect temperature to keep both parties warm but not hot. Research does consistently show women prefer a higher indoor temperature t

33、o men. But is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women “feel the cold” more than men?At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat. Women also have more fat between the skin and the muscles, so the skin feels colder, as its slightly further away

34、from blood vessels. Women also tend to have a lower metabolic(代谢)rate than men, which reduces heat production during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops. The hormones oestrogen and progesterone(雌激素和孕激素), found in large quantities in women, contribute to the

35、core body and skin temperatures. Oestrogen dilates(扩张)blood vessels at the extremities. This means more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progesterone can cause the vessels in the skin to narrow, meaning less blood will flow to some areas to keep the inner organs warmer, leaving women fee

36、ling cooler. So how do we agree on the ideal temperature? The “Scandinavian sleep method”, where couples sleep with separate blankets, is one way to overcome the differences in temperature preferences. In the workplace, personal comfort systems are heat systems that can be locally positioned in indi

37、vidual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. Examples include small desk fans, heated chairs and blankets, or foot-warmers. These systems provide individualised comfort to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space, and have been found to produce high

38、er comfort satisfaction in the workplace. They may also be an energy-efficient method to balance warmth and health in office environments.8. Why does a couple often have an argument on temperature control?A. Because the wife prefers to work indoors than outdoors.B. Because the wife would like to sta

39、y in a cooler place.C. Because they have different preference for temperature.D. Because they have no air-conditioner to heat their office.9. What may happen to men and women of the same weight?A. Men may be much stronger than women.B. Men may have more fat than women.C. Women may feel colder than m

40、en.D. Women may produce more heat than men.10. How does the fourth paragraph develop?A. By giving examples.B. By listing reasons.C. By solving problems.D. By making comparisons.11.

41、oving into a warm office.C. Applying a new heating system.D. Asking for an extra individual room.【答案】8. C 9. C 10. B 11. A【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要分析女性比男性更“感觉寒冷”的原因。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“And its a common debate between couples the perfect temperature to keep both parties warm but not hot. Research does consi

42、stently show women prefer a higher indoor temperature to men. (这是夫妻之间常见的争论保持双方温暖但不太热的最佳温度。研究一致表明，女性比男性更喜欢更高的室内温度。)”可知，夫妻之间关于温控的争论主要是因为他们对温度有不同的偏好。故选C项。【9题详解】推理判断题。由文章第二段“At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat. Women also have more fat between the skin and the

43、muscles, so the skin feels colder, as its slightly further away from blood vessels.(在同等体重的情况下，女性产生热量的肌肉往往较少。女性的皮肤和肌肉之间也有更多的脂肪，所以皮肤感觉更冷，因为它离血管稍远。)”可知，相同体重，女人可能会觉得比男人更冷。故选C项。【10题详解】推理判断题。由文章第四段“The hormones oestrogen and progesterone(雌激素和孕激素), found in large quantities in women, contribute to the core

44、 body and skin temperatures. Oestrogen dilates(扩张)blood vessels at the extremities. This means more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progesterone can cause the vessels in the skin to narrow, meaning less blood will flow to some areas to keep the inner organs warmer, leaving women feeling

45、 cooler.(女性体内大量存在的雌激素和黄体酮对身体核心和皮肤温度有影响。雌激素使四肢的血管扩张。这意味着更多的热量可能会流失到周围的空气中。黄体酮会导致皮肤血管变窄，这意味着流向某些区域的血液会减少，从而使内脏保持温暖，让女性感觉更凉爽。)”可知，这段主要分析女性感觉更凉爽的原因。故选B项。【11题详解】细节理解题。由最后一段“In the workplace, personal comfort systems are heat systems that can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as deskt

46、ops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. Examples include small desk fans, heated chairs and blankets, or foot-warmers. These systems provide individualised comfort to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space, and have been found to produce higher comfort satisfaction in the wor

However, a bird in the room will be able to

48、pick up on the magnetic field(磁场)of the earth and will know which direction to fly if it is time to migrate(迁徙). A snake will detect the presence of humans in the room by sensing their radiation. Each of these creatures could all be sharing exactly the same physical space and have a totally different experience of that space. Each animal has access to its own sensory environment called an “umwelt”. “Umwelt” was popularized by a German biologist named J
