When planning her utfit fr an upcming awards ceremny, Lily Murphy was cncerned abut tw things—hw much she spent n clthes and the impact n the envirnment. The slutin was t rent a dress frm smene.
Using an app called HURR, Murphy rented a dress t attend her event. As a yunger generatin f cnsumers takes a mre sustainable apprach t what it wears and als demands t have fresh lks fr its scial media psts, netwrks that link buyers and sellers have emerged.
By Rtatin, a Lndn-based cmpany, was started in 2019 by Eshita Kabra, wh was cncerned abut the high levels f textile waste she saw. Users can brrw r lend designer dresses and bags, with the ptin f the item either psted r cllected.
HURR, which Murphy used, perates in a similar way. Pieces have t be less than tw years ld and in “excellent cnditin”. The rental fee is based n the price f the piece, and the fees are 15 percent fr bth sides. There is als a service fee f £5.15, a dry-cleaning charge f £10, shipping f £10 and a damage prtectin fee f £5, which is ptinal.
If smething is damaged, the wner can bill the brrwer thrugh By Rtatin. “If they refuse t pay, the brrwer’s details can be handed ver t the lender fr them t pursue the matter in the small claims curt, althugh this has nt happened yet,” Kabra says. HURR funder Victria Prew says brrwers are asked t pay the market value if an item is damaged beynd repair.
What yu wn’t find n the new generatin f lending apps are high-street brands where shppers can buy pieces fr the same amunt they wuld pay t rent a high-end piece.
4. What d we knw abut By Rtatin?
A. Its items are less than tw years ld.
B. Brrwers can’t find high-street brands there.
C. The wner f clthes ften bills the brrwer.
D Its items can nly be cllected by the brrwer.
5. If yu rent a dress priced at £100 n HURR and have it psted t yu, hw much wuld yu pay at least?
A. £40.15.B. £45.15.C. £50.15.D. £60.15.
6. Peple chse t rent clthes fr the fllwing reasns EXCEPT ______.
A. spending less n clthesB. reducing their envirnmental impact

There’s s much carbn dixide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and prtecting frests wn’t slve the prblem. When plants and trees die, the carbn they’ve stred gets released again. Mrever, the CO2 in the atmsphere is much mre dilute than in, fr example, waste gas frm a pwer statin r a steel plant. Capturing CO2 frm the air is the mst expensive applicatin f carbn capture.
Direct Air Capture (DAC) is ne type f technlgical carbn remval, which btains CO2 directly frm the atmsphere, at any lcatin, unlike carbn capture which is generally carried ut at the pint f emissins. The CO2 can be permanently stred in deep gelgical frmatins r used fr a variety f applicatins.
Graphyte is a US cmpany wrking n DAC. The cmpany claims its carbn capture methd is cheap, mainly because it lets plants d the wrk. The cmpany cllects unwanted wd prducts frm farmers and furniture cmpanies. It dries this “bimass” cmpletely s that it can’t break dwn. Graphyte then smashes (打碎) the dried plants int small bricks which it seals in a special wrapper and buries deep undergrund.
Graphyte says its prcess desn’t use much energy and can wrk anywhere. The plant and tree material the prcess uses wuld release carbn if it wasn’t treated. And the cst is less than $100 t capture a tn f CO2. The cmpany is building a factry, but it’s nt running yet.
Nt everyne is excited abut carbn remval. Sme peple wrry that it will take t lng fr DAC technlgy t becme pwerful enugh t make a difference. Others wrry that fcusing n remving carbn culd take attentin away frm mre imprtant climate actins, like switching frm fssil fuels t renewable energy. But experts say the decisin isn’t t d ne r the ther. The wrld needs t end fssil fuel use and pull carbn ut f the air.
8. What des the authr mainly intend t tell us in the first paragraph?
A. Trees can purify the air in the sky.
B. Plants release mre carbn dixide.
C. Remving carbn frm the air is challenging.
D. CO2 emissin reductin is urgently needed.
9. What des the underlined wrd “dilute” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Beneficial.B. Thin.C. Harmful.D. Cncentrated.
10. What can we knw abut Graphyte’s DAC prject?
A. Its cst is relatively lw.
B. It is in gd peratin nw.
C. Its wrking cnditin is demanding.
D. It turns carbn int building materials.
11. What is the experts’ pinin abut DAC technlgy?
A. It will make a difference sn.
B. It can replace renewable energy in time.
C. It will result in mre envirnmental cncerns.
D. It can wrk tgether with ther climate measures.

Why are sme peple mre mtivated t handle difficult things? And is there a way t make ding difficult things easy? T answer this questin, we need t lk at this: dpamine (多巴胺). Dpamine is ften cnsidered a pleasure mlecule. But that’s nt quite what it des. Dpamine is what makes us desire things. And it’s that desire that gives us the mtivatin t get up and d stuff.
In fact, yur brain develps pririties in large part based n hw much dpamine it’s expecting t get. If an activity releases t little dpamine, yu wn’t have much mtivatin t d it. But if an activity releases a lt f dpamine, yu’ll be mtivated t repeat it, ver and ver. S which behavir releases dpamine? Any activity where yu anticipate there’s a ptential reward releases it.
And in tday’s digital sciety, we are flding ur brains with unnaturally high amunts f dpamine n a daily basis, even if we dn’t knw it. Sme examples f high dpamine behavir include: scrlling thrugh scial media websites, playing vide games, etc.
And yu might think, “Oh s what? It’s nt like it’s harming me in any way.” But yu’d be wrng. Our bdies have a bilgical system called hmestasis (体内动态平衡). Whenever an imbalance ccurs, ur bdy adapts t it. Essentially, yur brain gets used t having high levels f dpamine and thse levels becme yur new nrmal. Thus yu develp a dpamine tlerance. This can be a huge prblem because the things that dn’t give yu as much dpamine dn’t interest yu any lnger. That’s why peple tend t prefer playing vide games r brwsing the Internet, cmpared t studying r wrking n their business.
But it is pssible t make ding difficult things feel easier. Separate yurself frm the unnaturally high amunts f dpamine, r at least expse yurself t it far less frequently. Only then will nrmal, everyday, lw dpamine activities becme exciting again and yu’ll be able t d them fr lnger. That’s why yu might want t limit yur phne and cmputer usage, alng with ther high dpamine-releasing behavir.
We are all dpamine addicts t a certain extent. And that’s a gd thing because dpamine mtivates us t achieve ur gals and imprve urselves. But it’s up t yu t decide where yu’re ging t get yur dpamine. Are yu ging t get it frm things that dn’t benefit yu? Or are yu ging t get it frm wrking n yur lng-term gals? The chice is yurs.
12. When is dpamine released?
A When we have the mtivatin t d stuff.B. When ptential rewards can be btained.
C When we take pleasure in the behavir.D. When difficult things cme int being.
13. What can we learn frm the text?
A. Dpamine des great harm t ur bdy.B. It’s hard fr ur bdy t keep the balance.
C. Dpamine tlerance keeps us away frm games.D. Vide games prduce mre dpamine than study.
14. What is the purpse f paragraph 5?
A T ffer slutins t dpamine tlerance.B. T intrduce the effects f dpamine.
C. T explain why dpamine is harmful.D. T stress the imprtance f dpamine.
15. What is the authr’s attitude tward dpamine?
A. Dubtful.B. Supprtive.C. Objective.D. Disapprving.

Linking a wrd t brain areas respnsible fr mvement strengthens the memry f its meaning. ____16____. They used magnetic pulses (磁脉冲) t deliberately disrupt these areas in language learners. “Our results prvide neurscientific evidence fr why learning techniques that invlve the bdy’s mtr system shuld be used mre ften,” neurscientist Brian Mathias said in a news release.
As Mathias and his clleagues describe in the Jurnal f Neurscience, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a ttal f 90 invented artificial wrds ver fur days. While the test subjects first heard the new vcabulary, they were at the same time shwn a vide f a persn making a gesture that matched the meaning f the wrd. ____17____.
Five mnths later, they were asked t translate the vcabulary they had learned int German in a multiple-chice test. ____18____. The device sent weak magnetic pulses t their primary mtr crtex (皮层) — the brain area that cntrls vluntary arm mvements. When these interfering signals were active, the subjects fund it harder t recall the wrds accmpanied by gestures.
When the device sent n interfering signals, they fund it easier t remember the wrds. The researchers cncluded that the mtr crtex cntributed t the translatin f the vcabulary learned with gestures. ____19____.
The effect did nt ccur when the test subjects were nly presented with matching pictures instead f gestures when learning vcabulary. In cntrast, children — unlike adults — seem t benefit frm pictures as much as gestures in the lng run. ____20____. But it is nt nly the mtr cmpnent itself that prmtes learning.
A. They will receive interfering signals cnstantly
B. This is the cnclusin a research team reached
C. It can be helpful fr us t study adults’ memry
D. This applied t cncrete wrds as well as abstract nes
E. At the same time, they had a device attached t their heads
F. When the wrd was repeated, the subjects perfrmed the gesture themselves
G. The study indicates the adult brain uses mtr areas t remember freign-language wrds

When planning her utfit fr an upcming awards ceremny, Lily Murphy was cncerned abut tw things—hw much she spent n clthes and the impact n the envirnment. The slutin was t rent a dress frm smene.
Using an app called HURR, Murphy rented a dress t attend her event. As a yunger generatin f cnsumers takes a mre sustainable apprach t what it wears and als demands t have fresh lks fr its scial media psts, netwrks that link buyers and sellers have emerged.
By Rtatin, a Lndn-based cmpany, was started in 2019 by Eshita Kabra, wh was cncerned abut the high levels f textile waste she saw. Users can brrw r lend designer dresses and bags, with the ptin f the item either psted r cllected.
HURR, which Murphy used, perates in a similar way. Pieces have t be less than tw years ld and in “excellent cnditin”. The rental fee is based n the price f the piece, and the fees are 15 percent fr bth sides. There is als a service fee f £5.15, a dry-cleaning charge f £10, shipping f £10 and a damage prtectin fee f £5, which is ptinal.
If smething is damaged, the wner can bill the brrwer thrugh By Rtatin. “If they refuse t pay, the brrwer’s details can be handed ver t the lender fr them t pursue the matter in the small claims curt, althugh this has nt happened yet,” Kabra says. HURR funder Victria Prew says brrwers are asked t pay the market value if an item is damaged beynd repair.
What yu wn’t find n the new generatin f lending apps are high-street brands where shppers can buy pieces fr the same amunt they wuld pay t rent a high-end piece.
4. What d we knw abut By Rtatin?
A. Its items are less than tw years ld.
B. Brrwers can’t find high-street brands there.
C. The wner f clthes ften bills the brrwer.

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是随着年轻一代消费者对穿着采取更可持续的方式，并希望在社交媒体上展示新颖造型，连接买家和卖家的服装租赁网络平台应运而生。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“What yu wn’t find n the new generatin f lending apps are high-street brands where shppers can buy pieces fr the same amunt they wuld pay t rent a high-end piece.(在新一代租赁应用程序上，你找不到那些与租用高端服装价格相当的高街品牌。)”可知，在By Rtatin上，你无法找到高街品牌。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The rental fee is based n the price f the piece, and the fees are 15 percent fr bth sides. There is als a service fee f £5.15, a dry-cleaning charge f £10, shipping f £10 and a damage prtectin fee f £5, which is ptinal.(租赁费根据物品价格而定，买卖双方均需支付15%的费用。此外，还需支付5.15英镑的服务费、10英镑的干洗费、10英镑的运费，以及5英镑的损坏保护费（此项为可选）。)”可知，租赁双方都要向HURR支付费用，各给所租衣服费用的15%，即15英镑，再加上服务费5.15英镑，干洗费10英镑，邮费10英镑，共计40.15英镑。题目问的是至少花多少钱，因为损坏保护费是可选的，所以没有计算在内。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Lily Murphy was cncerned abut tw things—hw much she spent n clthes and the impact n the envirnment.(Lily Murphy担心两件事——她在衣服上花了多少钱，以及对环境的影响。)”和第二段中的“As a yunger generatin f cnsumers takes a mre sustainable apprach t what it wears and als demands t have fresh lks fr its scial media psts, netwrks that link buyers and sellers have emerged.(随着年轻一代消费者在穿着上采取更为可持续的方式，同时又要为社交媒体帖子打造新颖造型，连接买家和卖家的网络平台应运而生。)”可知，A、B、D三项正确，排除。根据最后一段中的“What yu wn’t find n the new generatin f lending apps are high-street brands where shppers can buy pieces fr the same amunt they wuld pay t rent a high-end piece.(在新一代租赁应用程序上，你找不到那些与租用高端服装价格相当的高街品牌。)”可知，C项错误。故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段“By Rtatin, a Lndn-based cmpany, was started in 2019 by Eshita Kabra, wh was cncerned abut the high levels f textile waste she saw. Users can brrw r lend designer dresses and bags, with the ptin f the item either psted r cllected.(2019年，Eshita Kabra创立了总部位于伦敦的By Rtatin公司，当时她对自己目睹的大量纺织废料深感忧虑。用户可以借出或借入设计师品牌的礼服和包包，既可以选择邮寄，也可以选择上门取货。)”可知，本文主要讲的是随着年轻一代消费者对穿着采取更可持续的方式，并希望在社交媒体上展示新颖造型，连接买家和卖家的服装租赁网络平台应运而生，因此最好的题目是C选项“Clthes-rental apps are taking ff(服装租赁应用正在兴起)”。故选C。

There’s s much carbn dixide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and prtecting frests wn’t slve the prblem. When plants and trees die, the carbn they’ve stred gets released again. Mrever, the CO2 in the atmsphere is much mre dilute than in, fr example, waste gas frm a pwer statin r a steel plant. Capturing CO2 frm the air is the mst expensive applicatin f carbn capture.
Direct Air Capture (DAC) is ne type f technlgical carbn remval, which btains CO2 directly frm the atmsphere, at any lcatin, unlike carbn capture which is generally carried ut at the pint f emissins. The CO2 can be permanently stred in deep gelgical frmatins r used fr a variety f applicatins.
Graphyte is a US cmpany wrking n DAC. The cmpany claims its carbn capture methd is cheap, mainly because it lets plants d the wrk. The cmpany cllects unwanted wd prducts frm farmers and furniture cmpanies. It dries this “bimass” cmpletely s that it can’t break dwn. Graphyte then smashes (打碎) the dried plants int small bricks which it seals in a special wrapper and buries deep undergrund.
Graphyte says its prcess desn’t use much energy and can wrk anywhere. The plant and tree material the prcess uses wuld release carbn if it wasn’t treated. And the cst is less than $100 t capture a tn f CO2. The cmpany is building a factry, but it’s nt running yet.
Nt everyne is excited abut carbn remval. Sme peple wrry that it will take t lng fr DAC technlgy t becme pwerful enugh t make a difference. Others wrry that fcusing n remving carbn culd take attentin away frm mre imprtant climate actins, like switching frm fssil fuels t renewable energy. But experts say the decisin isn’t t d ne r the ther. The wrld needs t end fssil fuel use and pull carbn ut f the air.
8. What des the authr mainly intend t tell us in the first paragraph?
A. Trees can purify the air in the sky.
B. Plants release mre carbn dixide.
C. Remving carbn frm the air is challenging.
D. CO2 emissin reductin is urgently needed.
9. What des the underlined wrd “dilute” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Beneficial.B. Thin.C. Harmful.D. Cncentrated.
10. What can we knw abut Graphyte’s DAC prject?
A. Its cst is relatively lw.
B. It is in gd peratin nw.
C. Its wrking cnditin is demanding.
D. It turns carbn int building materials.
11. What is the experts’ pinin abut DAC technlgy?
A. It will make a difference sn.
B. It can replace renewable energy in time.
C. It will result in mre envirnmental cncerns.
D. It can wrk tgether with ther climate measures.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了直接空气捕获（DAC）这一技术性碳移除方式。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“There’s s much carbn dixide (CO2) in the air that just planting trees and prtecting frests wn’t slve the prblem. When plants and trees die, the carbn they’ve stred gets released again. Mrever, the CO2 in the atmsphere is much mre dilute than in, fr example, waste gas frm a pwer statin r a steel plant. Capturing CO2 frm the air is the mst expensive applicatin f carbn capture.(空气中二氧化碳（CO₂）含量过高，仅仅靠植树造林和保护森林并不能解决这一问题。当植物和树木死亡时，它们储存的碳会再次释放出来。此外，大气中的二氧化碳浓度比例如发电站或钢铁厂排放的废气中的二氧化碳浓度要低得多。从空气中捕获二氧化碳是碳捕获技术中成本最高的应用方式。)”可知，本段中作者旨在告诉我们除掉空气中的碳是具有挑战性的，故选C。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段的“the CO2 in the atmsphere(大气中的二氧化碳)”和“waste gas frm a pwer statin r a steel plant(来自发电厂或钢铁厂的废气)”及常识可知，空气中的二氧化碳要比来自发电站或者钢铁厂的废气中的二氧化碳更稀薄，dilute的意思是“稀薄的”，和Thin意思相近。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“The cmpany claims its carbn capture methd is cheap, mainly because it lets plants d the wrk.(该公司声称其碳捕获方法很便宜，主要是因为它让植物来做这项工作。)”可知，这个公司声称它的碳捕捉方法比较便宜。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的“But experts say the decisin isn’t t d ne r the ther. The wrld needs t end fssil fuel use and pull carbn ut f the air.(但专家表示，这个决定并不是选择其中之一。世界需要停止使用化石燃料，减少空气中的碳。)”可知，专家认为DAC技术可以与其他气候措施协同工作。故选D。
D
Why are sme peple mre mtivated t handle difficult things? And is there a way t make ding difficult things easy? T answer this questin, we need t lk at this: dpamine (多巴胺). Dpamine is ften cnsidered a pleasure mlecule. But that’s nt quite what it des. Dpamine is what makes us desire things. And it’s that desire that gives us the mtivatin t get up and d stuff.
In fact, yur brain develps pririties in large part based n hw much dpamine it’s expecting t get. If an activity releases t little dpamine, yu wn’t have much mtivatin t d it. But if an activity releases a lt f dpamine, yu’ll be mtivated t repeat it, ver and ver. S which behavir releases dpamine? Any activity where yu anticipate there’s a ptential reward releases it.
And in tday’s digital sciety, we are flding ur brains with unnaturally high amunts f dpamine n a daily basis, even if we dn’t knw it. Sme examples f high dpamine behavir include: scrlling thrugh scial media websites, playing vide games, etc.
And yu might think, “Oh s what? It’s nt like it’s harming me in any way.” But yu’d be wrng. Our bdies have a bilgical system called hmestasis (体内动态平衡). Whenever an imbalance ccurs, ur bdy adapts t it. Essentially, yur brain gets used t having high levels f dpamine and thse levels becme yur new nrmal. Thus yu develp a dpamine tlerance. This can be a huge prblem because the things that dn’t give yu as much dpamine dn’t interest yu any lnger. That’s why peple tend t prefer playing vide games r brwsing the Internet, cmpared t studying r wrking n their business.
But it is pssible t make ding difficult things feel easier. Separate yurself frm the unnaturally high amunts f dpamine, r at least expse yurself t it far less frequently. Only then will nrmal, everyday, lw dpamine activities becme exciting again and yu’ll be able t d them fr lnger. That’s why yu might want t limit yur phne and cmputer usage, alng with ther high dpamine-releasing behavir.
We are all dpamine addicts t a certain extent. And that’s a gd thing because dpamine mtivates us t achieve ur gals and imprve urselves. But it’s up t yu t decide where yu’re ging t get yur dpamine. Are yu ging t get it frm things that dn’t benefit yu? Or are yu ging t get it frm wrking n yur lng-term gals? The chice is yurs.
12. When is dpamine released?
A. When we have the mtivatin t d stuff.B. When ptential rewards can be btained.
C. When we take pleasure in the behavir.D. When difficult things cme int being.
13 What can we learn frm the text?
A. Dpamine des great harm t ur bdy.B. It’s hard fr ur bdy t keep the balance.
C. Dpamine tlerance keeps us away frm games.D. Vide games prduce mre dpamine than study.
14. What is the purpse f paragraph 5?
A. T ffer slutins t dpamine tlerance.B. T intrduce the effects f dpamine.
C. T explain why dpamine is harmful.D. T stress the imprtance f dpamine.
15. What is the authr’s attitude tward dpamine?
A. Dubtful.B. Supprtive.C. Objective.D. Disapprving.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了多巴胺对人们动机和行为的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“S which behavir releases dpamine? Any activity where yu anticipate there’s a ptential reward releases it.(那么哪种行为会释放多巴胺呢？任何你预期有潜在奖励的活动都会释放它)”可知，大脑释放多巴胺的前提是你预期你所参与的活动会有潜在的回报。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“This can be a huge prblem because the things that dn’t give yu as much dpamine dn’t interest yu any lnger. That’s why peple tend t prefer playing vide games r brwsing the Internet, cmpared t studying r wrking n their business.(这可能是一个大问题，因为不能给你那么多多巴胺的事情不再让你感兴趣。这就是为什么人们更喜欢玩电子游戏或浏览互联网，而不是学习或从事自己的业务)”可知，那些不能给你许多多巴胺的东西不会让你再感兴趣，而与学习和工作相比较，人们更愿意玩游戏，说明玩游戏会产生更多的多巴胺。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Separate yurself frm the unnaturally high amunts f dpamine, r at least expse yurself t it far less frequently. Only then will nrmal, everyday, lw dpamine activities becme exciting again and yu’ll be able t d them fr lnger. That’s why yu might want t limit yur phne and cmputer usage, alng with ther high dpamine-releasing behavir.(让自己远离不自然的大量多巴胺，或者至少让自己少接触多巴胺。只有这样，正常的、日常的、低多巴胺的活动才会再次变得令人兴奋，你才能做得更长。这就是为什么你可能想要限制手机和电脑的使用，以及其他高多巴胺释放行为)”可知，本段的目的是提出解决多巴胺耐受问题的方法。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Dpamine is ften cnsidered a pleasure mlecule. But that’s nt quite what it des. Dpamine is what makes us desire things. And it’s that desire that gives us the mtivatin t get up and d stuff.(多巴胺通常被认为是一种快乐分子。但这并不完全是它的作用。多巴胺让我们产生欲望。正是这种渴望给了我们起床做事的动力)”，第四段“Essentially, yur brain gets used t having high levels f dpamine and thse levels becme yur new nrmal. Thus yu develp a dpamine tlerance. This can be a huge prblem because the things that dn’t give yu as much dpamine dn’t interest yu any lnger.(从本质上讲，你的大脑习惯了高水平的多巴胺，这些水平成为你的新常态。因此，你会产生多巴胺耐受性。这可能是一个大问题，因为不能给你那么多多巴胺的事情不再让你感兴趣)”和最后一段“We are all dpamine addicts t a certain extent. And that’s a gd thing because dpamine mtivates us t achieve ur gals and imprve urselves.(在某种程度上，我们都是多巴胺成瘾者。这是一件好事，因为多巴胺会激励我们实现目标，提高自我)”可知，作者介绍了多巴胺可以给我们带来的好处，多巴胺耐受的问题，而且在最后一段作者也表示多巴胺是个好东西，所以作者对于多巴胺的态度是客观的。故选C。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Linking a wrd t brain areas respnsible fr mvement strengthens the memry f its meaning. ____16____. They used magnetic pulses (磁脉冲) t deliberately disrupt these areas in language learners. “Our results prvide neurscientific evidence fr why learning techniques that invlve the bdy’s mtr system shuld be used mre ften” neurscientist Brian Mathias said in a news release.
As Mathias and his clleagues describe in the Jurnal f Neurscience, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a ttal f 90 invented artificial wrds ver fur days. While the test subjects first heard the new vcabulary, they were at the same time shwn a vide f a persn making a gesture that matched the meaning f the wrd. ____17____.
Five mnths later, they were asked t translate the vcabulary they had learned int German in a multiple-chice test. ____18____. The device sent weak magnetic pulses t their primary mtr crtex (皮层) — the brain area that cntrls vluntary arm mvements. When these interfering signals were active, the subjects fund it harder t recall the wrds accmpanied by gestures.
When the device sent n interfering signals, they fund it easier t remember the wrds. The researchers cncluded that the mtr crtex cntributed t the translatin f the vcabulary learned with gestures. ____19____.
The effect did nt ccur when the test subjects were nly presented with matching pictures instead f gestures when learning vcabulary. In cntrast, children — unlike adults — seem t benefit frm pictures as much as gestures in the lng run. ____20____. But it is nt nly the mtr cmpnent itself that prmtes learning.
A. They will receive interfering signals cnstantly
B. This is the cnclusin a research team reached
C. It can be helpful fr us t study adults’ memry
D. This applied t cncrete wrds as well as abstract nes
E. At the same time, they had a device attached t their heads
F. When the wrd was repeated, the subjects perfrmed the gesture themselves
G. The study indicates the adult brain uses mtr areas t remember freign-language wrds
【答案】16. B 17. F 18. E 19. D 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究，表明通过肢体动作学习外语词汇时，运动皮层有助于记忆，儿童则能从图片和动作中获得相似的学习效果。
【16题详解】
根据上文的“Linking a wrd t brain areas respnsible fr mvement strengthens the memry f its meaning.(将单词与负责运动的大脑区域联系起来可以加强对其意义的记忆)”可知，此处介绍了记忆单词的方法，结合下文的“They used magnetic pulses (磁脉冲) t deliberately disrupt these areas in language learners.(他们使用磁脉冲故意干扰语言学习者的大脑这些区域。)”可知，此空应涉及到与they指代的表示复数意义的内容，B选项“This is the cnclusin a research team reached(这是一个研究团队得出的结论)”中的this指代的是上文提到的记忆单词的方法，且其中的“a research team”与下文中的主语They相呼应。故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据上文的“While the test subjects first heard the new vcabulary, they were at the same time shwn a vide f a persn making a gesture that matched the meaning f the wrd.(当测试对象首次听到新词汇时，同时会观看一段视频，视频中一个人做出与该词意义相符的手势。)”可知，受试者在听到新词汇的同时观看与词义匹配的手势视频，结合空格所处的位置可知，此空应是对上文内容的总结或者是对空前内容进一步解释，F选项“When the wrd was repeated, the subjects perfrmed the gesture themselves(当单词重复时，受试者自己做出相应的手势。)”承接上文，进一步说明实验细节，符合语境。故选F项。
【18题详解】
根据上文的“Five mnths later, they were asked t translate the vcabulary they had learned int German in a multiple-chice test.(五个月后，他们被要求在多项选择测试中将所学的词汇翻译成德语。)”可知，受试对象被要求将所学的词汇翻译成德语，结合下文的“The device sent weak magnetic pulses t their primary mtr crtex (皮层) — the brain area that cntrls vluntary arm mvements.(该设备向他们的初级运动皮层（控制自主手臂运动的大脑区域）发送微弱的磁脉冲。)”可知，此处提到设备发送弱磁脉冲干扰主运动皮层，由此可推断，在此次测试中使用了某种设备，所以空格中应涉及到该设备，E选项“At the same time, they had a device attached t their heads(同时，他们头上佩戴了一个装置)”承接了上文，且其中的a device对应空格下一句中的the device。故选E项。
【19题详解】
根据上文的“The researchers cncluded that the mtr crtex cntributed t the translatin f the vcabulary learned with gestures.(研究人员得出结论，运动皮层有助于翻译通过手势学习的词汇。)”可知，运动皮层有助于翻译通过手势学习到的词汇，结合此空处于段尾，应是对上文进一步解释，D选项“This applied t cncrete wrds as well as abstract nes(这可能适用于具体的词，也适用于抽象的词)”中的this指代的内容为上文研究者得出的结论，补充说明实验结果的适用范围，符合语境。故选D项。
【20题详解】
根据上文的“The effect did nt ccur when the test subjects were nly presented with matching pictures instead f gestures when learning vcabulary. In cntrast, children — unlike adults — seem t benefit frm pictures as much as gestures in the lng run. (当测试对象在学习词汇时仅看到匹配的图片而非手势时，这种效果并未出现。相比之下，儿童与成人不同，长期来看，他们似乎能从图片中获得与手势相同的学习效果。)”可知，此处提到儿童与成人的不同学习机制，结合下文的“But it is nt nly the mtr cmpnent itself that prmtes learning.(但促进学习的不仅仅是运动组件本身。)”可知，此空应是承接上文，且与空后的内容为转折关系，G选项“The study indicates the adult brain uses mtr areas t remember freign-language wrds(研究表明，成人脑利用运动区域记忆外语单词)”介绍的内容与成年人记忆单词有关，与本段讲述的内容吻合，且与空后的内容为转折关系，符合语境。故选G项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是河西走廊的地理位置、历史背景、文化交汇及其在丝绸之路中的重要作用。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：河西走廊位于中国西北部，从北部的内蒙古自治区延伸到南部的青海省。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语，lcate与The Hexi Crridr之间为被动关系，所以此处使用形容词化的过去分词形式作定语。故填lcated。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：它是一条狭长的土地，夹在祁连山和北山之间。strip 意为“条，带”为可数名单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用冠词，结合句意，此处表示“一条狭长的土地”表示泛指意义，且narrw的首个音素为辅音，需用不定冠词a。故填a。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意：然而，由于地下水的存在，一些绿洲地区仍然适合农业和人类居住。此处为名词宾语，exist的名词为existence意为“存在”为不可数名词。故填existence。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：追溯到古代，这一地区是多个民族和文化的交汇点。此处为非谓语动词作状语，“date back t”为固定短语，意为“追溯到”与逻辑主语this regin之间为主动关系，所以此处需用现在分词形式作状语。位于句首，故填Dating。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：作为连接不同地区的门户，河西走廊是不同文化和背景的文明汇聚的地方。此处为关系词引导的定语从句，从句中不缺主语和宾语，所以使用关系副词，先行词gateway指地点，所以此处使用关系副词where。故填where。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：作为丝绸之路的重要组成部分，河西走廊在东西方文化交流和贸易中起着至关重要的作用。此处介词与空后的名词短语构成介宾短语作状语，结合句意，此处表示“作为”应为as，位于句首，首字母大写。故填As。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意：中原的商品以及汉族高度发展的造纸、印刷和火药文化通过河西走廊出口到西部地区。此处为副词作状语修饰动词develped， high的副词形式为highly意为“高度地”符合句意。故填highly。
【43题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意：中原的商品以及汉族高度发展的造纸、印刷和火药文化通过河西走廊出口到西部地区。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语in ancient times可知，此处使用一般过去时，且主语gds与exprt之间为被动关系，所以此处使用一般过去时的被动语态，且主语为名词复数。故填were exprted。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：河西走廊不仅是贸易的枢纽，也是信仰的融合之地。此处为“nt als...”结构，意为“不仅……而且……”符合句意，所以此处使用连词but。故填but。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：河西走廊的兴衰就像这个古老国家的缩影，在这里，传说与科技、过去与未来以奇妙的方式交织在一起。此处为“介词+which/whm”引导的非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少介词的宾语，先行词this ld cuntry指事物，所以此处使用关系代词which。故填which。
