[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。城市化的发展让人们

座大型城市公园的游客进行调查,发现与野生自然的互动
可以创造出一种可用的语言,可帮助人们认识和参与最令
人满意和有意义的活动。该研究呼吁保护城市中的野生
自然。
32.B细节理解题。根据第一段内容“As cities balloon
with growth,access to nature for people living in urban
areas is becoming harder to find.If you're lucky,there
might be a pocket park near where you live,but it's un-
usual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.
着城市的飞速发展,生活在城市地区的人们越来越难
以接近大自然。如果你幸运的话,你住的地方附近可
能会有一个袖珍公园,但在城市里找到相对天然的地
方是罕见的。”可知,文章开头作者讲述了一种现象,在
城市里,人们很难找到野生的自然。
33.D推理判断题。根据第三段的“They surveyed several
hundred park-goers,asking them to submit a written
summary online of a meaningful interaction they had
with nature in the park.The researchers then examined
these submissions,coding (experiences into dif-
ferent categories.他们调查了数百名公园游客,要求他

公园游客提交的在公园里与大自然互动的活动把游客

pattern of categories the researchers call a nature lan-
guage'began to emerge.After the coding of all submis-
sions,half a dozen categories were noted most often as
important to visitors.在这320份提交的作品中,一种
被研究人员称为‘自然语言’的分类模式开始出现。在
对所有提交的内容进行编码后,有六个类别被认为对
游客最重要。”可知,研究人员对参与者提交的内容进行
了分类,以便在游客的总结中找到模式并确定对游客最重
要的自然体验。通过这样做,他们能够创造一种“自然语
言,”帮助人们认识并参与对他们来说最满意和最有意义
的活动。选项D准确地反映了这一目的。
34.C推理判断题。根据第五段内容“Naming each nature
experience creates a usable language,which helps peo-
ple recognize and take part in the activities that are most
satisfying and meaningful to them.For example,the
experience of walking along the edge of water might be
satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in

joy a more domestic form of this interaction by walking
along a fountain on their lunch break.命名每一种自然

沿着水边散步的经历可能会让一个年轻的专业人士在

可用的语言,有助于人们识别并参与到对自己来说最
满意和最有意义的活动,接下来以一个年轻的专业人
士参与自然的方式举例说明,去公园时沿着水边散步
让他感到满意,回到市中心工作时他可以通过沿着喷

可以知道一样的自然体验可以以不同的形式呈现。
35.B推理判断题。根据最后一段“We're trying to generate
a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions
back into our daily lives.And for that to happen,we also
need to protect nature so that we can interact with it,'said
Peter Kahn,a senior author of the study.‘我们正试图创

Passage 9
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种
会识别形状的凤头鹦鹉。
24.B细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Though not known
to use tools in the wild,the birds have proved skilful at
tool use while kept in the cage.(虽然人们不知道这些
鸟在野外会使用工具,但事实证明,它们在关在笼子里
时就能熟练地使用工具。)”以及“the birds were given
five differently shaped 'key'to choose from.Inserting
the correct 'key’would let out the nut.(研究人员给了
这些鸟5把形状各异的‘钥匙’供它们选择。插入正确
的‘钥匙’会让坚果出来。)”可知,在实验中,凤风头鹦鹉
是通过使用工具从盒子里取出坚果的。
25.C细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In humans,babies
can put a round shape in a round hole from around one
year of age(在人类身上,婴儿从一岁左右就可以把
个圆形的物品放进一个圆形的洞里)”结合选项,可知
一岁儿童最有可能完成“将一个球放进一个圆形的洞
里”的任务。
26.D推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“The next step,
according to the researchers,is to try and work out
whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues,or
also use a sense of touch in making their shape selec-
tions.(根据研究人员的说法,下一步是尝试弄清楚凤
头鹦鹉是完全依靠视觉线索,还是也使用触觉来选择
它们的形状。)”可推知,后续测试的目的是了解凤头鹦
鹉在测试中是否使用触觉。
27.D主旨大意题。通读全文,再结合文章第一段
"Goffin's cockatoos,a kind of small parrot native to
Australasia,have been shown to have similar shape-
recognition abilities to a human two-year-old.(科芬的
凤头鹦鹉是一种原产于大洋洲的小鹦鹉,它的形状识
别能力与两岁的人类相似。)”可推知,本文主要介绍了
会识别形状的凤头鹦鹉。D项“Cockatoos:Skilful

意,最适合作为本文标题。

胶皮枫香树会释放出一种叫作异戊二烯的化学物质,
它与空气中的氯氧化物反应会产生近地面臭氧,是许
多呼吸问题的重要诱因,即这些树木会间接危害人体
健康。故选C项。
29.C推理判断题。本题问科曼基于研究可能提出的建
议。根据文章第二段内容可知,现有的主要树种(橡树
和胶皮枫香树)会间接危害人体健康;第三段中的“f
the city maintains past species patterns in new plant-
ings...ozone levels as much as30%”表明,研究发现,
若在新栽植的树中维持过去的树种模式,异戊二烯和
夏季臭氧水平都将大幅增加;同时根据第四段的科曼
的话可知,科曼赞同多植树,但认为应当谨慎对待植树
活动。由此可推知,科曼可能会建议改变新栽植的树
种。故选C项。
30.B词义猜测题。本题问第五段中的画线短语“oblivi-
ous to”的含义。根据第五段第二句“A study carried
out by some of its researchers several years ago conclu-
ded that city trees did release isoprene.”可知,公园部门
3
最新真题分类特训·英语
的一些研究者们在几年前开展的一项研究中得出了城
市树木确实会释放异戊二烯的结论,即公园部门并非
没有意识到这一问题。因此oblivious to意为“未意识
到;未察觉到”,与B项Unaware of含义一致。故选
B项。
31.A推理判断题。本题问欧阳可能提倡的做法。根据
文章第五段最后一句欧阳说的话“We could plant any
trees we want to,if we just rethink our car-centric lifes-
tyle”可推知,她主张重新思考以汽车为中心的生活方
式,即减少日常生活中汽车的使用。故选A项。

3.灾害防范
[语篇解读]这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了1991年
9月7日,加拿大历史上损失最大的冰雹袭击了卡尔加里
的南郊。因此,自1996年以来,一组保险公司每年在艾伯
塔省冰雹抑制项目上花费约200万美元。飞机在威胁人们
安全的风暴中心中播撒一种化学物质,使小冰晶在变成危
险的冰雹之前像雨一样落下。但是,在艾伯塔省中东部的
农民们担心,“冰雹计划”飞行的下风处,宝贵的水分正被
人工降雨从他们千渴的土地上偷走。
28.B细节理解题。根据第一段中“As a result,since
1996 a group of insurance companies have spent about
$2 million per year on the Alberta Hail Suppression
Project.Airplanes seed threatening storm cells with a
chemical to make small ice crystals fall as rain before
they can grow into dangerous hailstones..(因此,自l996
年以来,一组保险公司每年在艾伯塔省冰雹抑制项目
上花费约200万美元。飞机在威胁人们安全的风暴中
心中播撒一种化学物质,使小冰晶在变成危险的冰雹
之前像雨一样落下。)”可知,这个项目的目标是防止冰
雹的形成。

tral Alberta-downwind of the hail project flights-
wor-
ry that precious moisture()is being stolen from
their thirsty land by the cloud seeding..(但是,在艾伯塔
省中东部的农民们担心,‘冰雹计划’飞行的下风处,宝
贵的水分正被人工降雨从他们千渴的土地上偷走。)”

30.C推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“One doubter about
the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell,a research
scientist who just retired from the University of Okla-
homa.'In 1999,I personally saw significant tornadoes
(龙卷风)form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas,
Dr.Doswell says.Does cloud seeding create killer
storms or reduce moisture downwind?No one really
knows,of course,but the seeding goes on.'(查克·多
斯韦尔是一位刚刚从俄克拉何马大学退休的研究科学
家,他对人工降雨的安全性持怀疑态度。‘1999年,我
在堪萨斯州亲眼目睹了由于在风暴中心播撒而形成的
重大龙卷风,’多斯韦尔博士说。‘人工降雨会制造致
命风暴还是减少顺风处的水分?当然,没有人真正知
道,但是播撒还在继续。’)”可推知,多斯韦尔博士提到
他在1999年看到的龙卷风是为了提示人工降雨可能带
来的危险。
3l.D推理判断题。根据最后一段“Given the degree of
doubt,Mr.Stienwand suggests,'it would be wise to
stop cloud seeding.'In practice,doubt has had the op-
posite effect.Due to the lack of scientific proof concern-
ing their impacts,no one has succeeded in winning a
lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies.Hence,private
climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.
(考虑到质疑的程度,斯廷旺德建议,‘停止人工降雨是
明智的。’在实践中,怀疑产生了相反的效果。由于缺
乏有关其影响的科学证据,没有人成功地赢得了对人
工降雨公司的诉讼。因此,私人气候工程可以在相对
合法的安全条件下进行。)”可推知,从最后一段我们能
推断出人工降雨公司将继续存在。
