水、燃料和其他资源。这使得食物浪费成为一个环境问

DC Central Kitchen in Washington,D.C.,which recovers
food and turns it into healthy meals.Last year it recovered

品性别化的好处和环处,引发人们对此现象的思考。
l,A[理解具体信息根据题千中的“making new technolo-
gies genderless'”可将答案定位在第一段。“People are ster-
eotyping(形成刻板印象)their gendered objects in very tra
ditional ways”讲人们正在以非常传统的方式对他们的有
性别特征的物品形成刻板印象,“Removing gender from
the picture altogether seems like a simple way to fix this"
将性别从人们的印象中完全清除似乎是解决这个问题的
一种简单方法,“making new technologies genderless'”是
“Removing gender from the picture altogether”的一种方
法,故让新技术去性别化是为了减少人们的刻板印象,A
项正确。B项“为了满足公众需求”;C项“为了降低生产
成本”;D项“为了鼓励竞争”。]

与者可能被要求响应一项调查,故选B。]
3.D[推断根据题千中的“is it difficult to create gender
less objects”可将答案定位在第四段。第四段首句说Mar
ti的研究发现创造一个去性别化的物体是困难的,接着举
例进行具体阐述,如果一个物体的名字听起来没有性别,
参与者仍然会给它分配性别。由此可推知,性别观念在人
们心中根深蒂固,故选D。A项“它们不能大批量生产”;B
项“给它们命名是一项具有挑战性的任务”;C项“人们认为
它们不可靠”。]
4.B[理解段落主旨要义第三、四段讲产品性别化可能强
化关于权力和身份的过时或有害的观念,且创造一个去性
别化的物体是困难的。最后一段首句however进行转折,

改变刻板印象的机会”,然后讲拟人化的产品可以被创造
出来,以承担与刻板印象不一致的角色,如一个帮助护理
的男性机器人或一个帮助计算的女性机器人。由此可知,
最后一段讲产品性别化在一定程度上可以帮助改变人们
的刻板印象,即产品性别化的好处,故选B。A项“去性别
化产品的特征”;C项“拟人化的意思”;D项“对男人和女人
的刻板印象”。]
Passage 2
语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与社会一自然科学研究
一微塑料污染及应对方法
文章大意:本文指出了微塑料污染的普遍性,并介绍了中国
研究人员的新发现:煮沸并过滤自来水可去除水中的微塑料
(效果取决于水的硬度)。
1.C[推断读题题目问“第一段中,作者是如何呈现问
题的?”A项“通过引用专家观,点”;B项“通过解释一个概
念”;C项“通过举例子”;D项“通过提供统计数据”。
解题第一段中作者通过列举微塑料在深海、喜马拉雅山
脉、火山岩石、海鸟胃里和南极洲下的雪中的存在,来呈现
微塑料污染问题。因此,作者是通过举例子的方式来呈现
问题的。故选C。]
2.A[理解具体信息读题题目问“什么决定了聚集水中
微塑料的效果?”。A项“水的硬度”;B项“冷却时间长短”:
C项“过滤频率”;D项“水中塑料类型”。
解题根据第三段第一句“Crucially,this process relies on
the water containing enough calcium carbonate(碳酸钙)to
trap the plastics"(至关重要的是,这一过程依赖于水中含
有足够的碳酸钙来聚集塑料微粒)可知,水的硬度决定了
聚集水中微塑料的效果。下文补充说将含有300毫克碳
酸钙的硬质水(hard water)煮沸可使微塑料含量降低近
90%,但将碳酸钙含量低于60毫克的样本煮沸仅使微塑
料含量降低了25%。因此,水的硬度是影响聚集微塑料
效果的关键因素。]
3.B[推断读题题目问“通过在第四段中提及瓶装水作
者想要说明什么?”。A项“塑料回收的重要性”;B项“微塑
料问题的严重性”:C项“滥用纯净水的危害”:D项“污水处
理的难度”。
解题根据第四段“Stil,the findings show a potential path
forward..a task that's becoming increasingly difficult...
contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than origi-
nally thought'”可知,减少微塑料接触这项任务正变得愈发
