ride-sharefromanairportintoManhattan.(通过空运地面运
输的概念并不新鲜。直升机出租车服务已经在纽约等城市
存在,在那里,航班有时可以与从机场到曼哈顿的拼车费用
相当或便宜。)”可以推测,bypassing应该表示“绕过,避免”
的意思。故选A项。
2.B 词 句 猜 测 题。根 据 画 线 词 所 在 句“Sperm whaleshave
complex social groups....For two decades,scientists

解码一些声音后,他们转向人工智能来加快翻译速度。……
从声音子集中()单个鲸鱼。接下来,他们雄心勃勃的目标是
训练一台计算机说鲸鱼语。)”可知,该团队利用AI来将个体
抹香鲸(的声音)与一个子集的声音分辨开来,由此可知,discern
意为“识别”,与B项“Recognize”意思接近。故选B项。
3.A 词义猜测题。根据第二段“Ireceivedafloodofemails
andmessages.(我收到了大量的电子邮件和信息。)”可知,作
者下飞机后收到了大量的电子邮件和信息,由此可推测出,
这篇文章被指出错误所带来的后果非常迅速而强烈。falout
意为“后果”与 A项:Consequence(结果,后果)意思最接近。
故选A。
4.D 词 句 猜 测 题。根 据 画 线 词 所 在 句 “Expertsinthe

了数字阅读的demerits:‘最近各种各样的研究表明,批判性
阅读、有意识阅读、慢读、非战略性阅读和长篇阅读的数量正
在下 降。’)”中“adeclineofcriticalandconsciousreading,
slowreading,non-strategicreadingandlong-formreading”可
知,这些都是数字阅读盛行带来的问题和弊端,所以划线词
demerits与drawbacks同义,意为“缺点,弊端 ”。故选D项。
考点2
1.D 词义猜测题。根据“Ifyouwanttoloseweight,thekeyis
todevelopacaloricdeficitinwhichyouburncaloriesmore
thanwhatyoureconsuming.(如果你想减肥,关键是要养成
热量不足的习惯,在这种情况下,你燃烧的卡路里要多于你
摄入的卡路里)”以及划线处前“Buteatinghighcaloriefatty
foodregularlycanmakethisa(但是经常吃高热量、高脂肪的
食物会使这种情况发生)”but表示转折,可知,经常吃高热量
高脂 肪 的 食 物 会 让 减 肥 变 得 很 困 难。画 线 处 和 D 项:
Chalenge(挑战)含义相近。故选D。

thatandexpressingastorythatleavesthatplacebetter’Anna
says.(安娜说:‘我希望他们能记住在这样的地方自己度过难

behaveddifferentlyandlefthome.(我很喜欢,但有一次,我
表现得不一样,离开了家)”,以及画线词的下文“myfamily
traditionthatsummer(那年夏天我的家庭传统)”可推知,此
处指上文提到的作者在那年夏天没有遵循以往的家庭传统,
而是独自一人去旅行,revoltagainst意思应该是“反抗,不遵
循”,与disobey意思相近。故选D项。
4.D 词句猜测题。根据画线词“wasexercise”以及后文“The
ideathathealthandexercisewerelinked‘wasnttheaccepted

是我们今天所知道的公认事实’。一些人甚至认为‘过多的
体育活动对你的健康有害’。从事体育锻炼的矿工和农民也
会患上各种疾病,英年早逝)”可知,当时认为锻炼会对健康

thelaunchofitsrobotaxi.(加利福尼亚州正在加快推出其自

companies,WaymoandCruise,lettingthemchargeforrides
anywhereinthecity24/7.(上周,加州官员投票决定取消对
Waymo和Cruise这两家领先的自动驾驶汽车公司的大部分
限制,允许他们在城市的任何地方全天候收费。)”可知,加利

法,可以识别更大群体中的单个细胞对药物的不同反应。细
胞群对于药物的平均反应通常不能反映某些肿瘤细胞如何
生存或产生耐药性的全部复杂性)”可知,“CelOTaddresses
this”指的是CelOT能解决前人解决不了的问题,即上文的
“找出组 成 群 体 的 每 个 细 胞 对 药 物 的 不 同 反 应”,也 就 是
“variousresponsesofacelpopulationtodrugs”。故选A。

unguardedroadsaredangerous.(大象知道无人看守的道路

卫道路是优先偷猎的地点。故划线词指的是“无守卫的道
路”。故选B。

是“那正是(我们引入 AI的)部分目的”。在行文中,that一

“researchedonthesciencebehindhowhorrormoviesarein
manywaysidealasaspecificvehicleformeetingthisneedto

车站英勇救助跌落在铁轨上的受害者,以及画线词 的 上 文

媒体透露他之后)”可推知,观众在知道是 AnthonyPerry做

推知,画线句意思应该是Perry成了芝加哥受欢迎和尊敬的
人。故选D项。
2.B 词句猜测题。根据画线句的句意“Buttheresmoretothe
finishedproductsthanthe moneytheybringtosomeone

haveotherwiseoverlookedorstereotyped(刻板印象).(他发
现,买家倾向于与画中人物的故事联系起来,找到他们可能
忽略或刻板印象中的人物的相似之处并和他们建立友谊)”
得知,画的价值不仅在于会给穷困潦倒的画的主人公带来一
些财富,购买画的人往往会与画中的人物故事产生共鸣,甚
至与其成为朋友。这些画改变了买画人对待无家可归人们
的态度,肖像画或许会给买画人带来除了画以外更 多 的 东
西。故选B。
3.B 句意猜测题。根据第二段“Myclassmateswouldbecrazy
aboutthelatest HarryPotterbook,while mycopysat
colectingdustonashelf.Instead,Iwouldchoosetoread
throughthereferencebooksrelatedto mydisciplinesfor
bettergrades.(我的同学们会为最新的《哈利波特》而疯狂,
而我的那本却在书架上积满了灰尘。相反,我会选择阅读与
我的学科相关的参考书,以获得更好的成绩)”可知,作者儿
时对阅读小说不感兴趣,故划线句意思是“作者从小就对小
说缺乏热情”。故选B。

投资达到82.3亿美元,同比增长160%,创历史新高,成为印
尼第二大外国投资来源。美国投资银行高盛也在一份报告

中国企业对印尼的投资已经成为第二大外国投资来源。而
且印尼即将成为世界第四大经济体,所以中国企业正争先恐
后地将产品、管理团队和营销策略更好地本地化,以及吸引
当地的消费者。所以划线的句子可用“提高其市场份额并吸
