A

In a new field named“necrobotics”,researchers converted the bodies of wolf spiders（蜘蛛）into grippers（抓取器）that can operate objects.The idea was born from a simple question,explains Faye Yap,a mechanical engineer at Rice University in Houston.Why do spiders roll up when they die?

The answer: Spiders are machines operated by liquid moving under pressure.They control how much their legs extend by forcing blood into them.A dead spider no longer has that blood pressure,so its legs roll up.“We were just thinking that was so cool,”Yap says.“We wanted to take full advantage of it.”

Her team first tried putting dead wolf spiders in a double boiler,hoping that the wet heat would make the spiders expand and push their legs outward.That didn’t work.But when the researchers injected（注射）liquid straight into a spider body,they found that they could control its grip well enough to pull wires from a circuit board and pick up other dead spiders.Only after hundreds of uses did the necrobots start to become dewatered and show signs of wear.

See how this“necrobot”gripper,made from a dead wolf spider,picks up another dead spider.The attached injector pushes the liquid in and out of the spider it’s glued to,making the body’s legs open and shut.

In the future,the researchers will coat spiders with a sealant to hold off that decline.But the next big step is to control the spiders’ legs individually,Yap says,and in the process,figure out more about how spiders work.Then her team could translate their understanding into better designs for other robots.

“That would be very,very interesting,”says Rashid Bashir,a bioengineer at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.A spider body itself would probably have problems as a robot,he says,because it won’t perform consistently like“hard robots”and its body will break down over time.But spiders can definitely offer lessons to engineers.“There’s a lot to be learned from biology and nature,”Bashir says.

1.What can we know about the necrobots?

A.They are damageable.

B.They can live a long life.

C.They are made of live spiders.

D.They work by injecting blood.

【解析】

1.A 推理判斷題。

【全能解析】根據(jù)第三段最后一句“Only after hundreds of uses did the necrobots start to become dewatered and show signs of wear.”可知，僅在使用上百次之后，necrobots 就開始脫水并有磨損跡象。由此可推知，necrobots 是易壞的。故選A。

【干擾項(xiàng)分析】本題中選項(xiàng)D 為強(qiáng)干擾項(xiàng)。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，蜘蛛在活著的時(shí)候是通過控制進(jìn)入腿部的血量來控制腿的伸展程度?？忌苋菀滓虼酥饔^臆斷而誤選D。但本文題干問的是對(duì)necrobots 的了解，而并非對(duì)蜘蛛的了解。故可排除D。

B

During her childhood summer holidays,McIntosh,her mother and little brother would make the short trip from Glasgow to Loch Lomond to rent a boat,pack it with camping supplies and head for the islands.The trips became a tradition.

However,her mother became unwell.Any thought of summer camping trips faded away,as McIntosh,aged 13,became one of the young carers across Britain with round-the-clock responsibility for her parent’s welfare.The young girl’s world became about helping her mother.At 18,she found herself anxious and unsure of what to do next.It was at that point that she was encouraged to apply for a 19’day residential course with Outward Bound,which prides itself on uprooting youngsters from their home comforts,giving funded places to those like McIntosh from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Four years on and McIntosh credits the course with making her who she is today.It was so transformative that she is training to become an outdoor instructor herself.“I learnt more about myself in those 19 days than I had in my entire life.”

“When you’re in the middle of nowhere,you feel quite vulnerable.You learn to bond and trust quite quickly,”she recalls.Then came the moment described as one of the best of her life.The group had been asked to climb Ben Nevis but when they were close to the summit,they realized they had not left enough time and had to turn back.The next day they returned and completed it.

“Climbing Ben Nevis twice in two days,that’s not something I ever would have thought I was capable of doing at the start of the course,”she said,still beaming about it years later.

To become an instructor,McIntosh is gaining qualifications in climbing,skiing,and mountain leadership,as well as studying for a diploma in counseling.She wants to take her mother,who is losing her eyesight,camping again.“I hope that before that happens I will be able to take her out and show her the things that I get to see,”she said.

1.What did McIntosh and her family do during her childhood summer holiday?

A.Rowed a boat on Loch Lomond.

B.Made a short trip to Glasgow.

C.Rent a boat and camping supplies.

D.Went camping on the islands.

2.Which of the following best describes McIntosh?

A.Unlucky and qualified.

B.Responsible and kind.

C.Caring and persistent.

D.Pitiful and easy’going.

【解析】

1.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。

【全能解析】根據(jù)第一段第一句“During her childhood summer holidays，...to rent a boat,pack it with camping supplies and head for the islands.”可知，在 MeIntosh 童年的暑假期間，她和她的母親、弟弟將從格斯哥到羅蒙湖進(jìn)行短途旅行，租一觸船，裝上露營(yíng)用品，然后前往群島。由此可知，在童年的假期間MeIntosh 和她的家人在群島露營(yíng)。故選 D。

【關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)撥】對(duì)于涉及時(shí)空變化和事件過程信息較多的題目，解題關(guān)鍵是梳理和弄清信息點(diǎn)之間的邏輯關(guān)聯(lián)。

【干擾項(xiàng)分析】本題中C 項(xiàng)為 強(qiáng)干擾項(xiàng)。C 項(xiàng)雜糅了原文信息點(diǎn)，將租船和在船上裝上露營(yíng)用品兩個(gè)信息點(diǎn)混為一談，表達(dá)為租船、租露營(yíng)用品。故排除 C 項(xiàng)。

2.C 推理判斷題。

【全能解析】通讀全文尤其是最后一段第一、二句“To become an instructor,MeIntosh is gaining qualifications in climbing,skiing,and mountain leadership...who is losing her eyesight，camping again.”可知，為了成為一名戶外教練，MeIntosh 正在獲得攀巖滑雪和登山領(lǐng)導(dǎo)方面的資質(zhì)，同時(shí)還在攻讀咨詢專業(yè)的文憑，她想帶視力逐漸衰退的母親再去露營(yíng)。由此可推知，她是一個(gè)體貼且堅(jiān)持不懈的人。故選 C。

【關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)撥】對(duì)人物的評(píng)價(jià)要從多方面來看，從文章句子直接的表述來看，MeIntosh 是細(xì)心且體貼的；從文章的中心思想并結(jié)合具體事例可分析出MeIntosh在照顧母親的同時(shí)兼顧學(xué)習(xí)，說明她是有毅力且堅(jiān)持不懈的人。

【干擾項(xiàng)分析】本題中B 項(xiàng)為強(qiáng)干擾項(xiàng)。從MIntosh 多年悉心照顧母親來看,她確實(shí)是負(fù)責(zé)的且善良的。但是，這只是她的一個(gè)方面。在照顧母親之余，她還堅(jiān)持學(xué)習(xí)，完善自己，在登山遇到困難時(shí)不屈服等都說明了她是有毅力的人。她還希望以后能夠把母親帶到戶外去，像小時(shí)候母親帶她去野營(yíng)一樣，我們更覺得她不僅是善良，而且是發(fā)自內(nèi)心地去關(guān)心自己的母親。故C 項(xiàng)為最佳答案，可以排除 B 項(xiàng)。

C

According to National Renewable Energy Laboratory experts,air cooling is already responsible for 3.94% of yearly carbon emissions（排放）worldwide,which will only worsen as higher global temperatures continue to drive the growing need for air conditioning.Meanwhile,increased energy bills and a lack of gas supply are other significant concerns.The climate change and energy issues call for serious efforts to carry out more effective projects to answer these challenges.

Heat pumps（泵）seem to be visible,and they are gaining attention—particularly in the US and UK.They function by transferring heat from the outside air to water while generating cold air,thereby keeping homes cool.According to a recent study,using heat pumps can help homeowners reduce greenhouse gas emissions,save money on energy,and improve their health.The findings,published in Environmental Research Letters,indicate that heat pumps will lower emissions for two-thirds of families while benefiting one-third of US homeowners financially.

Dalrada Corporation was established by Brian Bonar in 1982 with a vision to transform meaningful ideas into solutions to serve humanity.Since then,the organization has expanded its operations to serve plentiful business sectors.The company helps industrial,commercial,and consumer industries in various sections,such as science,health care,engineering and technology.Dalrada’s high-temperature CO2-based heat pump offers clean heating and cooling without requiring burning fossil（化石）fuels.The technology is promising,and the US government had selected Dalrada’s heat pump as a green building pioneer to inspire more energy transformation new technologies.

According to multiple studies focusing on the hotel industry,the most expensive bill is for electricity,followed by water and gas.Dalrada’s LikidoTM heat pump is the company’s flagship product.A lowcarbon,heating and cooling pump design provides an extraordinary solution for reducing dependence on fossil fuels.Eventually,this creative technology has the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption and costs for hotels around the world.

1.What can we learn about air cooling?

A.It takes up about 1/25 of the world’s carbon emissions every year.

B.It drives the global temperature to go higher dramatically.

C.It is the biggest consumption of many households.

D.It is urgent to cut off the use of the air cooling system.

2.Why is the US government’s selection mentioned in the third paragraph?

A.To prove Dalrada’s heat pump technology has a bright future.

B.To show Dalrada Corporation has meaningful ideas.

C.To advertise the company’s various high-tech products.

D.To suggest the company has good relations with the government.

【解析】

1.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。

【全能解析】根據(jù)第一段第一句“According to National Renewable Energy Laboratory experts,air cooling is already responsible for 3.94% of yearly carbon emissions worldwide ...”可知，據(jù)美國(guó)國(guó)家可再生能源實(shí)驗(yàn)室的專家稱，空氣冷卻已經(jīng)占據(jù)全球每年碳排放量的3.94%，即空氣冷卻產(chǎn)生的碳排放量占全球每年碳排放量的1/25。故選A。

【關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)撥】本題題干為：關(guān)于空氣冷卻，我們能了解到什么？這就要求考生將閱讀重點(diǎn)放在文章的第一段上，文章開篇第一句提到，空氣冷卻產(chǎn)生的碳排放量約占全球每年碳排放量的3.94%，而A 選項(xiàng)中的1/25=4%，兩個(gè)數(shù)字基本相當(dāng)。

【干擾項(xiàng)分析】本題中的C 選項(xiàng)為強(qiáng)干擾項(xiàng)。C 項(xiàng)為“C.它是許多家庭最大的消費(fèi)”，文章中沒有正式提到，但是受到日常生活中的影響，考生容易把自身帶入，自認(rèn)為“根據(jù)常識(shí)”，從而得出該錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)。

2.A 推理判斷題。

【全能解析】根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容尤其是最后一句“The technology is promising,and the US government had selected Dalrada’s heat pump as a green building pioneer to inspire more energy transformation new technologies.”可知，這項(xiàng)技術(shù)很有前景，美國(guó)政府已經(jīng)選擇Dalrada 的熱泵作為綠色建筑的先驅(qū)，以激勵(lì)更多的能源轉(zhuǎn)換新技術(shù)。由此可推知，第三段提到美國(guó)政府的選擇是為了證明Dalrada 的熱泵技術(shù)前景廣闊。故選A。

【干擾項(xiàng)分析】D 選項(xiàng)“暗示公司與政府有良好的關(guān)系”為強(qiáng)干擾項(xiàng)，第三段最后一句提到“這項(xiàng)技術(shù)很有前景，美國(guó)政府已經(jīng)選擇Dalrada 的熱泵作為綠色建筑的先驅(qū)，以激勵(lì)更多的能源轉(zhuǎn)換新技術(shù)”，考生會(huì)認(rèn)為這一句暗示了政府和該公司有良好的關(guān)系，但是文章的主旨是介紹這種綠色環(huán)保技術(shù)，故可將D 排除。

【解析】

1.various 2.reflects

3.estimated 考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。

【全能解析】動(dòng)詞estimate 與被修飾的market scale 之間是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，所以應(yīng)用過去分詞作定語(yǔ)，故填estimated。

【?？家族e(cuò)點(diǎn)】非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是語(yǔ)法填空題的?？贾R(shí)點(diǎn)。此類題的解題誤區(qū)有：

（1）誤以為過去分詞作定語(yǔ)時(shí)一定表被動(dòng)。原則上，過去分詞作定語(yǔ)時(shí)表示被動(dòng)意義。但也有少數(shù)過去分詞作定語(yǔ)時(shí)不表示被動(dòng)意義，而只表示完成意義。（2）想當(dāng)然地認(rèn)單個(gè)過去分詞作定語(yǔ)一定前置。單個(gè)的過去分詞作定語(yǔ)時(shí)，既可前置，也可后置，其區(qū)別是：如果前置，則表明這個(gè)過去分詞具有形容詞的特征（有的已經(jīng)轉(zhuǎn)化為形容詞）；如果后置，則表明這個(gè)過去分詞仍為動(dòng)詞（其動(dòng)作意味很強(qiáng)，通常可轉(zhuǎn)化為定語(yǔ)從句）。

【關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)撥】熟詞生義可以根據(jù)已學(xué)詞匯知識(shí)聯(lián)系新的語(yǔ)境。學(xué)生對(duì)commit 的了解更多是“犯罪”，這里需要根據(jù)語(yǔ)境理解commit to的意思。commit to 在此處應(yīng)為“致力于……”的意思。

5.moves

6.took

7.required?？疾榉侵^語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。

【全能解析】分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，本句已經(jīng)有謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞has got，此處為非謂語(yǔ)。被修飾詞skills與動(dòng)詞require 之間是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，所以此處應(yīng)用過去分詞作后置定語(yǔ)。故填required。

【關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)撥】解決本題的關(guān)鍵在于認(rèn)清句子的謂語(yǔ)與非謂語(yǔ)。因此分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)是根本。

【?？家族e(cuò)點(diǎn)】本題易錯(cuò)點(diǎn)在于辨別非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。解決此類問題需要分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)，確定謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，分析主語(yǔ)與謂語(yǔ)的關(guān)系，從而判斷提示詞是謂語(yǔ)還是非謂語(yǔ)。再根據(jù)非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的基本用法確定具體的形式。
