【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The remval f the neurma caused my temprary balance issues and permanent hearing lss in ne ear.(神经瘤的切除导致了我暂时的平衡问题和一只耳朵的永久性听力损失。)”和第二段中“Unexpectedly, the neurma came back years later.(没想到几年后神经瘤又复发了。)”可知，作者单侧耳聋后，他的听神经瘤又长出来了。故选B。
【5题详解】

C
When we ignre small tasks deliberately, they balln frm tiny checklist items int big annyances. It culd be a quick email r sme bring paperwrk-smething that will nly take a few minutes and yet, smehw, fr sme reasns, yu keep n putting it ff.
This is prcrastinatin (拖延症). Peple wh prcrastinate tend t delay tasks n purpse until the last minute, r past due date, althugh they’re fully aware f the negative results. Typically, prcrastinatin is caused by the lack f the ability t rganize and plan hw t divide time between different activities, but emtins can als be a factr, says Fuschia Siris, a prfessr at the University f Sheffield.
It’s easy t understand why we prcrastinate n big tasks. They can be physically r mentally demanding and require lts f time and energy. Hwever, small tasks can lead t a particularly annying frm f prcrastinatin. This culd be smething as simple as making a phne call t a stranger. Yu are s unwilling and afraid that yu might mess it up. This makes wrry sit in yur mind, reduces yur ability t slve the prblem and then leads t prcrastinatin. “We dn’t prcrastinate n tiny tasks because they slip ur mind; rather, we make a cnscius chice t put ff smething that might aruse dubt, fear r feelings f incmpetence, says Siris.
Anther reasn is that small tasks ften dn’t have hard deadlines. S, it’s easier t have an avidance reactin because, unlike the big tasks, there’s nthing t push us.
S, hw t get small things dne? Siris suggests we shuld mve ur attentin frm emtins t actins. “Smetimes, things are clured by ur emtins, ” he explains. Once yu actually begin a task, yu might find it less stressful than yu thught when yu were prcrastinating. And since a tiny task wn’t take lng, rather than scheduling it, just get cracking. Dn’t let tiny things becme big mnsters.
8. What can we knw abut peple wh prcrastinate?
A. They manage t finish n time.
B. They underestimate the cnsequences.
C. They might put ff wrk unintentinally.
D. They might have time management prblems.
9 Why des the authr mentin “making a phne call” in paragraph 3?
A. T make a cmparisn with big tasks.
B. T shw small things can be physically demanding.
C. T prvide an example f vercming prcrastinatin.
D. T prve prcrastinatin can result frm negative feelings.
10. What d the underlined wrds “get crackin” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Make a plan.B. Set a deadline.
C. Take immediate actin.D. Adpt a psitive attitude.
11. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Why D We Put ff Small Things?
B. Why D Small Things Make Us Wrried?
C. Hw Des Prcrastinatin Affect Yur Life?
D. Hw D Negative Feelings Becme Prcrastinatin?
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了我们拖延小事情的原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Peple wh prcrastinate tend t delay tasks n purpse until the last minute, r past due date, althugh they’re fully aware f the negative results. Typically, prcrastinatin is caused by the lack f the ability t rganize and plan hw t divide time between different activities, but emtins can als be a factr, says Fuschia Siris, a prfessr at the University f Sheffield.(拖延的人倾向于故意将任务推迟到最后一刻或过期日期，尽管他们完全意识到负面结果。谢菲尔德大学教授Fuschia Siris表示，通常情况下，拖延症是由于缺乏组织和计划如何在不同活动之间分配时间的能力造成的，但情绪也可能是一个因素。)”可知，拖延的人故意将任务推迟到最后一刻或过期日期，他们缺乏组织和计划如何在不同活动之间分配时间的能力，由此可知，拖延的人可能存在时间管理问题。故选D。
9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Hwever, small tasks can lead t a particularly annying frm f prcrastinatin. This culd be smething as simple as making a phne call t a stranger. Yu are s unwilling and afraid that yu might mess it up. This makes wrry sit in yur mind, reduces yur ability t slve the prblem and then leads t prcrastinatin. (然而，小任务会导致一种特别恼人的拖延症。这可能就像给陌生人打电话一样简单。你是如此不愿意，也害怕你会把事情搞砸。这会让你心中充满忧虑，降低你解决问题的能力，进而导致拖延。)”可知，像给陌生人打电话这种小事，会让你心中充满忧虑，这是你的消极情绪，这进而降低你解决问题的能力，导致拖延。由此可推知，作者在第三段提到“打电话”这种小事是为了证明拖延可能是由消极情绪引起的。故选D。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线短语上文“S, hw t get small things dne? Siris suggests we shuld mve ur attentin frm emtins t actins.(那么，如何把小事做好呢？Siris建议我们应该将注意力从情绪转移到行动上)”和划线短语所在句子“And since a tiny task wn’t take lng, rather than scheduling it, just get cracking(由于一个小任务不会花很长时间，所以与其安排它，不如get cracking)”可知，做好小事需要将注意力转移到行动上，由此可推知，小任务不会花很长时间，所以我们要立即采取行动解决它，划线短语意为“立即采取行动。”与C项“Take immediate actin.(立即采取行动)”意思一样，故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，第一段介绍了拖延小事的这种具体行为；第二段解释了拖延的人的做法以及拖延的原因——缺乏组织和计划如何在不同活动之间分配时间的能力是一个原因，情绪也可能是一个因素。第三段和第四段解释了推迟小事的原因；第五段介绍了我们该如何把小事做好，避免拖延。由此可知，文章主要介绍了我们为什么推迟小事的原因，A项“为什么我们要推迟小事？”适合作文章标题，故选A。
D
Last mnth, a part f the Negr River in the Amazn rainfrest reduced t a depth f just 12.7 metres, its lwest level in 120 years, due t the lack f rainfall. In Lake Tefé, abut 500 kilmetres away, mre than 150 river dlphins were fund dead, nt because f the lw water levels, but prbably because the lake had reached temperatures clse t 40 C.
“The Amazn rainfrest in nrthern Brazil is experiencing a tugh time and it is the sum f three things,” says Luciana Gatti, a researcher at Brazil’s Natinal Institute. “The first is defrestatin, which is turning rainfrest int a drier, htter place,” she says.
“Additinally, El Nini climate pattern has begun and it makes things wrse,” adds Gatti. El Niñ is a phenmenn which ccurs every tw t seven years. During El Niñ, winds that usually blw frm east t west alng the equatr (赤道) are weakened r even turn the ther way rund. This leads t the change f rainfall in Suth America, causing dry air in the nrth, where the rainfrest lies, and damp air in the suth. As a result, cuntries in the suth are currently greeted by heavy rains, while the Amazn is experiencing the lwest rainfall levels frm July t September in 40 years.
The third factr is the unusual warming f the water in the nrthern Atlantic Ocean. The warming f these waters causes the Inter Trpical Cnvergence Zne (热带辐合带), a regin f intense clud and rain frmatin, t shift nrth. The ITCZ takes the strms with it, away frm Brazil, and causes less rainfall than usual.
Althugh it is hard t predict when the next drught might strike the Amazn, studies shw that climate change is messing with the timing f El Niñ. “The tendency is that we have strnger and mre frequent crises,” Gatti says. This culd be a disaster fr the Amazn rainfrest, already hit by defrestatin and a warming, drying climate.” The frest’s tipping pint is cming clser-and it’s cming quick.
12. What phenmenn des the authr describe at the beginning f the text?
A. The climate change and fld.
B. The extreme drught and heat.
C. The severe pllutin and extinctin.
D. The wildlife death and defrestatin.
13. Accrding t Gatti, why des El Niñ make things wrse?
A. The east wind brings ht air.
B. The west wind causes heavy rain.
C. The high temperature has decreased damp air.
D. The wind directin has affected the rainfall pattern.
14. What can be inferred abut the Inter Trpical Cnvergence Zne frm paragraph 4?
A. It prduces rainfall in Brazil.
B. It carries cluds t rainfrest.
C. Its mvement wrsens the drught.
D. Its frmatin raises the water temperature.
15. What is Gatti’s attitude t the future f the Amazn rainfrest?
A. Cncerned.B. Unclear.C. Psitive.D. Objective.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了亚马逊雨林极度干旱和炎热原因。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Last mnth, a part f the Negr River in the Amazn rainfrest reduced t a depth f just 12.7 metres, its lwest level in 120 years, due t the lack f rainfall. In Lake Tefé, abut 500 kilmetres away, mre than 150 river dlphins were fund dead, nt because f the lw water levels, but prbably because the lake had reached temperatures clse t 40 C.(上个月，由于降雨不足，亚马逊雨林内格罗河的部分水深降至仅12.7米，为120年来的最低水位。在大约500公里外的特菲湖（Lake Tefé），有超过150只河豚被发现死亡，这并不是因为水位低，而是因为湖水温度达到了接近40摄氏度)”可知，降雨不足，内格罗河的部分水深降至仅12.7米，且湖水温度达到了接近40摄氏度，结合第二段中“The first is defrestatin, which is turning rainfrest int a drier, htter place(首先是森林砍伐，这使得雨林变得更加干燥、炎热)”可推知，作者在文章的开头描述了极度干旱和炎热的天气。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中““Additinally, El Nini climate pattern has begun and it makes things wrse,” adds Gatti. El Niñ is a phenmenn which ccurs every tw t seven years. During El Niñ, winds that usually blw frm east t west alng the equatr (赤道) are weakened r even turn the ther way rund. This leads t the change f rainfall in Suth America, causing dry air in the nrth, where the rainfrest lies, and damp air in the suth.(“此外，厄尔尼诺气候模式已经开始，这让事情变得更糟，”加蒂补充道。厄尔尼诺现象每两到七年就会发生一次。厄尔尼诺现象期间，通常沿赤道自东向西吹的风会减弱，甚至逆转。这导致南美洲降雨量的变化，导致热带雨林所在的北部空气干燥，而南部空气潮湿)”可知，Gatti认为，厄尔尼诺现象会让事情变得更糟，这是因为风向影响了降雨模式。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The warming f these waters causes the Inter Trpical Cnvergence Zne (热带辐合带), a regin f intense clud and rain frmatin, t shift nrth. The ITCZ takes the strms with it, away frm Brazil, and causes less rainfall than usual.(这些水域变暖导致热带辐合带（一个云雨密集的区域）向北移动。ITCZ将风暴带离巴西，导致降雨量比平常少)”可知，热带辐合带将风暴带离巴西，导致降雨量比平常少，进而导致极度干旱和炎热。由此推知，热带辐合带的移动加剧了干旱。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““The tendency is that we have strnger and mre frequent crises,” Gatti says. This culd be a disaster fr the Amazn rainfrest, already hit by defrestatin and a warming, drying climate.” (加蒂表示：“趋势是我们面临的危机更加严重、更加频繁。对于已经受到森林砍伐和气候变暖、干燥影响的亚马逊雨林来说，这可能是一场灾难。”)”可推知，Gatti对亚马逊雨林的未来很担心。故选A。
