    Section B
    Directions: Read the following two passage. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
    (A)
    An argument will break down if one of the premises is not true or if the conclusion does not logically follow from them. For example, consider this argument:
    The deer population in our state should be preserved. During the hunting season hundreds of deer are killed. Therefore, the hunting season should be discontinued.
    To challenge this argument, the state’s wildlife commission might agree with both the major and minor premises but question whether the conclusion follows logically from them. True, the deer population should be preserved; true, deer are killed during the hunting season. However, in a state where deer have no natural enemies, herds become too large for the natural forest vegetation to support them. The overpopulated herds eat the leaves of the young trees, killing the trees, before dying of starvation themselves. The commission might conclude, therefore, that a limited hunting season helps preserve a healthier and more stable population of deer.
    People who already agree with you need no persuasion, although a well-argued case for their own point of view is always welcome. But indifferent and doubting people will tend to resist your argument because they have minds of their own. To convince them, you will need to refute(驳斥)opposing arguments.
    To give up a position that seems reasonable, the arguer has to see that there is an even more reasonable one. In addition to presenting your own case, review the chief arguments of the other side and explain what you think is wrong with them.
    It is the best way to deal with the other side. Often it is useful to summarize the opposing position. Sometimes a better plan is to anticipate objections as you develop your detailed reasons for your argument. Wherever you decide to deal with opposing arguments, do your best to refute them.
    As you refute opposition arguments, try to establish common ground with readers who at first do not agree with your views. If you can show that you share their values, they may be able to switch to your position without giving up what they feel is important. For example, to persuade people emotionally opposed to shooting helpless deer, a state wildlife commission would have to show that it too cares about preserving deer and does not want them to die needlessly. Having established these values in common, the commission might be able to persuade people that a carefully controlled hunting season is good for the deer population because it prevents starvation caused by over-population. However, if those opposed to hunting want to persuade the commission to ban the hunting season, they would need to show that the commission could achieve its goals by some other means, such as expanding the deer preserve or allowing the deer and the food supply to come into a natural balance.
    46. What does the underlined word premises mean in the first paragraph?
    A. establishments B. commercials
    C. assumptions D. prejudices
    47. By killing some deer, we ________.
    A. have the hunting season B. make the hunters happy
    C. protect the rest of the herds D. create their natural enemies
    48. It is suggested that you ________ before refuting the opposing argument.
    A. present your case first B. summarize the position of the other side
    C. review your own views D. pretend to be indifferent
    49. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
    A. One may give up a position when he sees a more reasonable one.
    B. You’d better anticipate the possible objections before you give your reasons
    C. Deer should be preserved but overpopulation will do harm to them.
    D. Those opposed to hunting don’t have good reasons
    【答案】46. C 47. C 48. B 49. D
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以狩猎季禁止捕猎的论断为例说明了,在反驳对方的论点之前,要先总结一下对方的立场,由此说服别人,认同自己的观点。
    【46题详解】
    词义猜测题。根据划线词后的句子“if the conclusion does not logically follow from them(结论不能从它们逻辑上得出)”可知,此处的them指代前文的划线词premises,此处的表示结论的出处,即结论出自于假设,故划线词与C选项assumptions为同义词,意为“假设”。故选C。
    【47题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第二段中“However, in a state where deer have no natural enemies, herds become too large for the natural forest vegetation to support them. The overpopulated herds eat the leaves of the young trees, killing the trees, before dying of starvation themselves. ( 然而,在一个鹿没有天敌的州,鹿群变得太大,自然森林植被无法养活它们。数量过剩的鹿群吃了小树的叶子,树的数量减少,然后自己饿死了。)”可知,通过猎杀鹿群可以保护其他物种。故选C。
    【48题详解】
    细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Often it is useful to summarize the opposing position. Sometimes a better plan is to anticipate objections as you develop your detailed reasons for your argument. Wherever you decide to deal with opposing arguments, do your best to refute them.(总结对方的立场通常是有用的。有时一个更好的计划是在你为你的论点提出详细理由的时候预见到反对意见。无论你决定在什么地方对付相反的论点,尽你最大的努力去反驳它们。)”可知,在反驳对方的论点之前,建议你先总结一下对方的立场。故选B。
    【49题详解】
    细节理解题。根据最后一段中“However, if those opposed to hunting want to persuade the commission to ban the hunting season, they would need to show that the commission could achieve its goals by some other means, such as expanding the deer preserve or allowing the deer and the food supply to come into a natural balance.(然而,如果那些反对狩猎的人想要说服委员会禁止狩猎季节,他们就需要证明委员会可以通过其他手段实现其目标,比如扩大鹿保护区或允许鹿和食物供应达到自然平衡。)”可知,那些反对狩猎的人会通过其他手段比如扩大鹿保护区或允许鹿和食物供应达到自然平衡来实现其目标即可推断那些反对狩猎的人有充分的理由去实现自己的目标说服委员会。D选项与文意相反,为错误选项。故选D。
    (B)

    (C)
    The United Nations Food Systems Summit(峰会)held last September was overshadowed by a powerful counter-moblilization effort led by farmers and scientists and small-scale food producers across the world.
    Opposition to the summit had been mounting since July, when hundreds of grassroots organizations challenged the organizers for framing the problem of food systems in narrow, technocratic ways and offering “false solutions” such as biotechnological interventions(干预)instead of promoting more sustainable, just and people-first ways of farming. Also in July the Philippines approved commercial cultivation of Bt eggplant, a genetically modified (GM) food that produces a protein that kills eggplant fruit and “Golden Rice” changed to produce beta-carotene, the forerunner of vitamin A. The Philippines thus became the first country in South and Southeast Asia of approve GM rice.
    Advocates of GM crops praised the Philippines’ move as a victory of science. Since the U. N.’s food summit was announced two years ago, different groups have steadily reduced applications of science to global problems to a limited set of investor-oriented innovations. Within this orbit, agricultural biotechnology and digitalization are boasted as vital to achieving the U. N.’s sustainable development goals. As governments now debate the way forward from the summit, it is critical to recognize that a narrow focus on technology to address the complex structural problems of farming and food has an astonishingly poor track record.
    At its base, GM crops are rooted in a colonial-capitalist model of agriculture based on theft of local land and on exploiting farmers’ and food workers’ labor, native knowledge and the web of lift itself. Today this agricultural model is responsible not only for increasing farm debt, depleted soils, and threats to native seeds and biodiversity but also the destruction of farmers’ knowledge and skills. For the world to achieve sustainability, this colonial model of agriculture must be dismissed, and promising agroecological approaches based on working with biodiversity and farmers’ knowledge and skills should be brought to center stage.
    Most GM crops are engineered with resistance to herbicides(除草剂)and insects, which has not only contributed to the emergence of “super-weeds” and increasing pesticide use but has driven the global growth of seed and chemical industries. These kinds of crops have principally benefited large-scale farmers, grain traders and multinational corporations involved in selling seeds and pesticides.
    Multinational agribusinesses have understood Golden Rice and Bt eggplant as pro-poor technologies to win over smallholder farmers and consumers in the Global South. The International Rice Research Institute has led Golden Rice’s development with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and in partnership with Syngenta (which owns rights to the rice) to address vitamin A deficiency (VAD) among the poor, especially children and pregnant women.
    53. The recent Food Systems Summit was greeted with distrust because the organizers ________.
    A. didn’t take the interests of people concerned into account
    B. didn’t attach importance to the blossoming of agriculture
    C. failed to come up with the effective initiatives with joint efforts
    D. employed the inappropriate approaches to farming
    54. What is the purpose of mentioning the Philippines’ case?
    A. To prove the victory for the supporters of GM food.
    B. To illustrate the Philippines’ opposition to the summit.
    C. To argue it is a waste of money in the GM food.
    D. To introduce how many nutrients GM food may contain.
    55. ________ is advocated for the development of agriculture in the long run.
    A. Exploiting farmers’ and food workers’ labor
    B. Developing crops resistant to insects
    C. Removing the colonial-capitalist model
    D. Establishing partnership to address VAD
    56. What can be inferred from the passage?
    A. The Philippines is a country with cutting-edge technologies.
    B. The application of GM food will solve the problem of environment.
    C. Governments have initiated into the complex structural farming problems.
    D. The booming pesticide industry is credited to the cultivation of GM food.
    【答案】53. D 54. A 55. C 56. D
    【解析】

    【53题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第二段的首句“Opposition to the summit had been mounting since July, when hundreds of grassroots organizations challenged the organizers for framing the problem of food systems in narrow, technocratic ways and offering “false solutions” such as biotechnological interventions(干预)instead of promoting more sustainable, just and people-first ways of farming.(自7月以来,对此次峰会的反对越来越多,当时数百个草根组织挑战组织者以狭隘、技术的官僚方式构建食品系统问题,并提供“错误的解决方案”,如生物技术干预,而不是促进更可持续、公正、以人为本的农业方式)”可知,人们对这次粮食首脑会议不信任的原因在组织者于采用了不恰当的农业方式。故选D项。
    【54题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第三段首句“Advocates of GM crops praised the Philippines’ move as a victory of science.(转基因作物的倡导者称赞菲律宾的举动是科学的胜利)”可知,提到菲律宾的案例是为了证明转基因食品的支持者的胜利。故选A项。

    Chocolate Is Beneficial in Some Cases
    Mental arithmetic became easier after volunteers had been given large amounts of compounds found in chocolate, called flavanols (黄烷醇), in a hot cocoa drink. They were also less likely to feel tired or mentally drained, the findings, presented at the British Psychological Society annual conference in Brighton show.
    Prof David Kennedy, director of the brain, performance and nutrition research centre at North-umbria University, and a co-author of the study, said that chocolate could be beneficial for mentally challenging tasks.
    ___57___ “For things that are difficult to do, mentally demanding things that maybe crop up in your work, it would help.” Prof Kennedy said. The flavanols, part of a group of chemicals called polyphenols (多酚), work by increasing the flow of blood into the brain.
    For the study 30 volunteers were asked to count backwards in groups of three from a random number between 800 and 999 generated by a computer. ___58___. However the same was not true when the group was asked to count backwards in groups of seven, which the researchers described as more complex task, requiring a slightly different part of the brain.
    The findings also show that the volunteers did not get as tired doing the calculations if they had been given the cocoa drink, despite being asked to do them over and over for an hour. The researchers gave the volunteers a total of 500 mg of flavanol. ___59___.
    Emma Wightman, one of the study’s lead researchers, said: “You can get bars of chocolate that have 100 mg of flavnoal, and we are also going to look at the effect of lower doses of flavanol on the brain.”
    Prof Kennedy added: “The amount that you are giving is more than in the diet but there is quite a lot of evidence that general amounts are protective against declining function and that kind of thing. ___60___.
    A. Volunteers’ performance definitely improved after drinking a lot of cocoa.
    B. The findings show that they could do the calculations more quickly and more accurately after they had been given the drink.
    C. The more fruit and vegetables and things that are high in polyphenols the better that is for your brain in the long run.
    D. Although the amount was too great to be found naturally in the diet, researchers said people should ensure they have lots of flavanols, also found in fruit and vegetables, on a regular basis.
    E. Both higher and lower doses of chocolate will increase brain power.
    F. The findings suggest students who overeat chocolate when revising for exams may gain a real benefit from doing so.

    【59题详解】
    根据上文“The researchers gave the volunteers a total of 500 mg of flavanol. (研究人员给志愿者总共500毫克黄烷醇。)”可知,上文告诉我们研究人员给志愿者总共500毫克黄烷醇,D项意为“尽管这一数量太多,无法在饮食中自然发现,但研究人员表示,人们应该确保自己定期摄入大量的黄烷醇,这些黄烷醇也存在于水果和蔬菜中。”选项能够承接上文,虽然500毫克黄烷醇数量太多,但研究人员表示,黄烷醇也存在于水果和蔬菜中,人们应该确保自己定期摄入大量的黄烷醇。故选D。
    【60题详解】
    根据上文“Prof Kennedy added: “The amount that you are giving is more than in the diet but there is quite a lot of evidence that general amounts are protective against declining function and that kind of thing.” (肯尼迪教授补充道:“你所给的量比饮食中的量要多,但有很多证据表明,一般的量可以防止功能下降之类的事情。”)”可知,上文告诉我们一般量的黄烷醇就可以防止功能下降之类的事情,C项意为“水果、蔬菜和富含多酚类物质的食物越多,从长远来看,对大脑的好处就越大。”选项能够承接上文,黄烷醇是多酚的一部分,一般量的黄烷醇就会对大脑产生好处,吃水果、蔬菜和富含多酚类物质的食物越多,对大脑的好处就越大。故选C。

    考查连词。句意:我们还需要升级我们的地面支持系统,它是为在近地轨道而不是在月球表面运行而设计的,他解释到。分析句子结构可知,此处为连词引导的限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词ground support system指的是物。故填which/that。
    【67题详解】
    考查固定短语。句意同上。分析句子结构可知,空前与空后的内容为并列关系,结合句意,rather than意为“而不是”符合句意。故填rather than。
    【68题详解】
    考查介词。句意:设计人员说,这枚尚未命名的新型火箭有近90米长,发射重量约为2000公吨,能够将25吨重的航天器送入地球-月球轨道,并补充说,这种新型号将为载人登月服务。分析句子结构可知,空后为“冠词+名词单数”结构,且不是句子,所以应该填介词,结合句意可知,此处表示的是“火箭有90米长”,with意为“具有”的意思,且位于句首,首字母大写。故填With。
    【69题详解】
    考查非谓语动词。句意同上。have/has/be yet to do是固定搭配,意为“还未做某事”,又“火箭”和name之间是被动关系,故用不定式的被动式。故填to be named。
    【70题详解】
    考查非谓语动词。句意同8小题。分析句子结构可知。此处为非谓语动词短语作状语,与句子主语designers 之间为主动关系,且动词与谓语动词同时发生。故填adding。
    V. Translation
    Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.
    71. 班长背着我给我准备了一张新年贺卡,这让我无比激动。(prepare)(汉译英)
    【答案】The monitor prepared a New Year card for me behind my back, which made me very excited.
    【解析】
    【详解】考查时态和定语从句。分析汉语结构可知,表示“给某人准备某物”应为句子的主句部分,翻译为prepare sth. for sb.,且根据句意可知,此处描述的为过去的事情,所以谓语动词使用一般过去时态;表示“背着我”,也就是“在我的背后”翻译为behind my back;分析句子可知,表示“这让我无比激动”为从句,对主句解释说明,所以使用非限制性定语从句,主语指的是事情,故用which引导,时态与主句一致,“让我兴奋”表达为make me very excited。结合其他汉语提示,故翻译为The monitor prepared a New Year card for me behind my back, which made me very excited.
    72. 不可否认的是,澳大利亚土著语言的消亡阻碍了对当地传统文化的研究。(There ...) (汉译英)
    【答案】There is no denying that the demise of Australian Aboriginal languages has hindered the study of local traditional culture.
    【解析】
    【详解】考查固定句型和现在完成时。表示“不可否认的是”用固定句型there is no denying that ;表示“澳大利亚土著语言的消亡”用the demise of Australian Aboriginal languages;表示“阻碍”用hinder,此处表示动作发生在过去对现在有影响故事用现在完成时即has hindered;同时表示“对当地传统文化的研究”用the study of local traditional culture。故翻译为There is no denying that the demise of Australian Aboriginal languages has hindered the study of local traditional culture。
    73. 令科学家们欣慰的是,他们经过数年的潜心研究后,无人驾驶技术在中国终于初具雏形。(shape n.) (汉译英)
    【答案】To the relief of scientists, after years of research, driverless technology is finally taking shape in China.
    【解析】
    【详解】考查介词短语和动词。句中表示“令科学家们欣慰的是”用to the relief of scientists;表示“经过数年的潜心研究后”用after years of research;表示“无人驾驶技术”用driverless technology;表示“初具雏形”用finally take shape。同时句子表述客观事实,故使用一般现在时。故翻译为To the relief of scientists, after years of research, driverless technology is finally taking shape in China。
    74. 虽然努力不一定成功,但在此过程中培养的解决问题的能力和永不放弃的精神是伴随人们一生的宝贵财富。(secure) (汉译英)
    【答案】Although efforts may not result in success, the ability to solve problems and the spirit of never giving up gained in the process are valuable treasure that will secure a lifetime.
    【解析】
    【详解】考查句子结构及词汇。表示“虽然……但是……”可使用although/though引导让步状语从句;从句部分“努力不一定成功”可使用名词effort做主语,情态动词may not和动词短语result in作谓语,名词success作宾语;主句主语部分“在此过程中培养的解决问题的能力和永不放弃的精神”可使用名词短语the ability to solve problems和the spirit of never giving up并列,作主语,过去分词短语gained in the process作后置定语,谓语部分表示“是伴随人们一生的宝贵财富”可使用系表结构be valuable treasure和定语从句that will secure a lifetime。故翻译为Although efforts may not result in success, the ability to solve problems and the spirit of never giving up gained in the process are valuable treasure that will secure a lifetime.
