【解析】6.【試題答案】D

【試題解析】主旨大意題。根據(jù)題干可以定位到原文Theeconomiclosswillbeincalculable,fortheprimaryrainforestsarerichsourcesoftimber(mahogany,teak)andsuchby-productsasresins,gums,cellulose,camphorandrattans.(經(jīng)濟(jì)損失將是不可估量的,因?yàn)樵加炅质悄静摹一ㄐ哪?、柚木和樹脂、樹膠、纖維素、樟腦和藤等副產(chǎn)品的豐富來源),后文也有提到雨林的其他作用。可知選擇D選項(xiàng)“雨林的重要性”。A選項(xiàng)“進(jìn)化的場景”,B選項(xiàng)“今天的原始森林”,C選項(xiàng)“雨林的產(chǎn)物”,均過于片面,所以A,B,C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,因此,D選項(xiàng)符合題意。

7.【試題答案】A

【試題解析】判斷推理題。根據(jù)題干可以定位到原文第一段的第三句Afewauthoritiesholdthat,exceptforgovernmentreserves,theearth’sgreatrainforestsmayvanishwithinageneration.(一些權(quán)威人士認(rèn)為,除了政府的保護(hù)區(qū),大片熱帶雨林可能會在一代人的時(shí)間內(nèi)消失),A選項(xiàng)“消失的速度”,B選項(xiàng)“具體地理位置”,C選項(xiàng)“需要保護(hù)樹葉”,D選項(xiàng)“潛在的商業(yè)發(fā)展”。因此,A選項(xiàng)符合題意。

8.【試題答案】A

【試題解析】事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干定位到原文倒數(shù)第二段的最后一句Noone,indeed,cancomputetheirresources,forofthethousandsofspeciesthatcomposetheforestcover,thereareonlyafewwhosephysicalandchemicalpropertieshavebeenstudiedwithaviewtocommercialuse.(沒有人能夠計(jì)算它們的資源,因?yàn)樵跇?gòu)成森林覆蓋的數(shù)千種物種中,只有少數(shù)幾個(gè)物種的物理和化學(xué)性質(zhì)經(jīng)過了研究,以便用于商業(yè)用途)可知選擇A選項(xiàng)“不可計(jì)算的,不可估量的”,B選項(xiàng)“有些限制”,C選項(xiàng)“非商業(yè)的”,D選項(xiàng)“只有科學(xué)家才會感興趣”。因此,A選項(xiàng)符合題意。

9.【試題答案】C

【試題解析】判斷推理題。根據(jù)題干定位到原文的第一段的第二句話JustasthevirginforestsofEuropeandNorthAmericawerelaidlowbyman’simprovidence,sothoseofthetropicsarenowvanishing—onlytheirdestructionmaybeencompassedindecadesinsteadofcenturies.(就像歐洲和北美的原始森林因?yàn)槿祟惖膿]霍而被摧毀一樣,熱帶地區(qū)的原始森林也正在消失——只是它們的毀滅可能會持續(xù)幾十年,而不是幾個(gè)世紀(jì))可知選擇C選項(xiàng)“人們變得更浪費(fèi)了”,A選項(xiàng)“人們一直不走運(yùn)”,B選項(xiàng)“沒有一片原始森林被重新種植”,均沒有提及,所以A,B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,D選項(xiàng)“熱帶雨林已經(jīng)消失了”,原文說的是正在消失,與原文不符,所以D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,因此,C選項(xiàng)符合題意。

10.【試題答案】A

【試題解析】事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干定位到原文最后一段的第一句話Mostimportantofall,theprimevalrainforestisareservoirofspecimens,adynamiccenterofevolutionwhencetherestoftheworld’splantlifehasbeencontinuallyenrichedwithnewforms.(最重要的是,原始雨林是標(biāo)本的蓄水池,是一個(gè)動態(tài)的進(jìn)化中心,世界上其他植物的生命以新的形式不斷豐富起來)可知選擇A選項(xiàng)“是植物進(jìn)化的領(lǐng)域”,B選項(xiàng)“還沒有準(zhǔn)備好迎接人類無情的斧頭”,C選項(xiàng)是“政府的主要收入來源”,原文沒有提及,所以A,B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,D選項(xiàng)“在商業(yè)化使用之前還需要進(jìn)一步的開發(fā)”,是原因之一,但不是主要原因,所以D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,因此,A選項(xiàng)符合題意。

11.【試題答案】C

【試題解析】語義推測題。根據(jù)題干定位到原文首段首句Throughoutextensiveareasofthetropicsthetallandstatelyprimevalforesthasgivenwaytoerodedland,scrubandthejumbleofsecondarygrowth.(在廣袤的熱帶地區(qū),高大莊嚴(yán)的……森林已經(jīng)被侵蝕的土地、灌木叢和雜亂的次生植物所取代)根據(jù)后文的次生,可得知primeval指的是“原生的,原始的”。A選項(xiàng)“貿(mào)易的,商業(yè)的”,B選項(xiàng)“十分宜人的,很吸引人的”,C選項(xiàng)“起初的,原始的”,D選項(xiàng)“厚的,濃密的”。因此,C選項(xiàng)符合題意。

12.【試題答案】B

【試題解析】判斷推理題。題干問的是描述的情況有些緊急的原因是什么,根據(jù)題干定位到原文第一段的第三句Afewauthoritiesholdthat,exceptforgovernmentreserves,theearth’sgreatrainforestsmayvanishwithinageneration.(一些權(quán)威人士認(rèn)為,除了政府保護(hù)區(qū)以外,地球上的大片熱帶雨林可能會在一代人的時(shí)間內(nèi)消失)可知選擇B選項(xiàng)“熱帶雨林的破壞很可能在一代人之內(nèi)就會發(fā)生”,A選項(xiàng)“熱帶雨林的大部分在扼殺次生植物”,D選項(xiàng)“植物學(xué)家對雨林研究得不夠快”,原文沒有提及,所以A,D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,C選項(xiàng)“豐富高雅的木材是一種寶貴的資源”,根據(jù)原文倒數(shù)第二段的倒數(shù)第一句,可知有少數(shù)是寶貴的資源,但并不是描述情況緊急的原因,所以C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,因此,B選項(xiàng)符合題意。

13.【試題答案】B

【試題解析】作者意圖題。整篇文章講述了熱帶雨林的重要性,有著無可估量的價(jià)值,根據(jù)最后一段的最后一句Theseextensivereservesmustbedefendedfromtheacquisitivehandofman.(我們必須保護(hù)這些豐富的儲備免受人類貪婪的侵害)可知選擇B選項(xiàng)“保護(hù)熱帶雨林生物的多樣性”,A選項(xiàng)“從森林資源中賺錢”,由原文可知只有少數(shù)物種可以用于商業(yè)用途,所以A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,C選項(xiàng)“研究樹脂,樹膠,纖維素,樟腦和藤的用途”,D選項(xiàng)“治愈人貪婪的天性”,都過于淺顯,所以C,D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,因此,B選項(xiàng)符合題意。

問題1選項(xiàng)

A.precede

B.dominate

【解析】1.根據(jù)第二段的第二句"Happinessiseverywhere—onthebest-sellerlists,inthemindsofpolicymakers,andfrontandcenterforeconomists—yetitremainselusive."可知,幸福是個(gè)有爭議的話題。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"agitatingtopics"。

2.根據(jù)第二段的三四句"Thegoldenruleofeconomicshasalwaysbeenthatwell-beingisasimplefunctionofincome."經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)的黃金法則一直是:幸福是收入的簡單函數(shù)。也就是說人們將收入和幸福聯(lián)系起來。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"earnings"。

3.thatisnotthecase為固定搭配,意為"事實(shí)并非如此"。文中第二段有提到"Afteracertainincomecap,wesimplydon'tgetanyhappier."收人增加不一定會使我們幸福。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"thecase"。

4.根據(jù)第二段的"butwhetherwehavemorethanourneighbor,thatreallymatters."重要的是我們是否比鄰居擁有的更多。以及倒數(shù)第三段的最后一句"Turnsout,keepingupwiththeJonesesishard-wiredintoourbrains,thankstoourpack-creatureroots."由此可以推斷,這里的neighbor和Mr.Joneses相對應(yīng)。

5.根據(jù)第二段的最后一句"Sothenewslastweek...madetherestofuslessso."2006年頂級對沖基金經(jīng)理至少賺了2.4億美元,這可能并沒有讓他們更快樂,只是讓我們其他人不那么快樂。所以使我們不快樂的是髙收入的對沖基金經(jīng)理。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"hedge-fundmanagers"。

6.根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞"GDP"定位到第三段第二句“...,“happinessindexer,”tobeusedalongsideGDPasaguidetosociety'sprogress.”不丹、澳大利亞、中國、泰國和英國等多個(gè)國家都提出了“幸福指數(shù)”將與GDP一起作為社會進(jìn)步的指南。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"happinessindexes"。

7.根據(jù)第三段的最后一句“Nevermindthattheworld'stophappinessresearchersrecentlygatheredataconferenceinRometodebatewhetherjoyisevenmeasurable.”最近,世界頂尖的幸福研究人員在羅馬召開了一次會議,討論快樂是否可以衡量。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"measurementofhappiness"。

8.根據(jù)第五段的第二句“The18th-centuryBritishEnlightenmentthinkerJeremyBenthamarguedthatpublicpolicyshouldtrytomaximizehappiness,...”18世紀(jì)的英國啟蒙思想家JeremyBentham認(rèn)為,國家政策應(yīng)該將幸福最大化。"adaptto"指適應(yīng)于...。

9.根據(jù)第五段的第二句“...andmanyprominenteconomistsagreedbutcouldnotquiteembracetheidea.”許多著名經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家同意這一觀點(diǎn),但并不完全贊同。也就是說不能完全實(shí)施執(zhí)行。"putintoeffect"意為執(zhí)行。

10.根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞“RichardEasterlin”定位到第六段第一句“Oneoftheearlyrevelationsofhappinessresearch,fromRichardEasterlinattheUniversityofSouthernCalifornia,...”由此可知RichardEasterlin曾對幸福做過早期的研究。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"preliminaryinterpretation"。

11.根據(jù)第六段第一句“...whilethericharetypicallyhappierthanthepoor,thehappinessboostfromextracashisn'tthatgreatonceonerisesabovethepovertyline.”雖然富人通常比窮人更幸福,但獲得額外的金錢并不會像擺脫貧困線那樣更能增加幸福。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"escalate"。

12.根據(jù)第六段第一句“...thehappinessboostfromextracashisn'tthatgreatonceonerisesabovethepovertyline.”可知,空格處應(yīng)填入"povertyline"。

13.根據(jù)第六段的倒數(shù)第二句“wegetusedtobeingricherdarnquick,andtakeitforgrantedorcompareittowhatothershave,notwhatweusedtohave.”我們很快就習(xí)慣了變得更富有,并且認(rèn)為這是理所當(dāng)然的,或者把它與別人所擁有的相比,而不是與我們曾經(jīng)擁有的相比。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"acquaintwith"。

14.根據(jù)第六段的最后一句“Turnsout,keepingupwiththeJonesesishard-wiredintoourbrains,...”事實(shí)證明,與他人攀比是我們大腦的固有模式。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"innate"。

15.定位到第七段第一句“"workless,playmore"istheformulaforhappiness.”"少工作,多娛樂"是幸福的公式。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"formulaforhappiness"。

16.根據(jù)第七段最后一句“HumanbeingsdowantaEuropean-stylesafetynet,...”人類確實(shí)需要一個(gè)歐洲式的安全網(wǎng)...。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"safetyscheme"。

17.根據(jù)最后一段的第一句“perhapsourintuitionsabouthappinessshouldtriumphoverthefuzzydata,anyway.”也許我們對幸福的直覺應(yīng)該超過那些模糊的數(shù)據(jù)。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"optimize"。

18.根據(jù)最后一段的第二句“Theeconomicsofhappinesshasgivenusacoupleoffairlyhardandfastrulesaboutwell-beingbeingtrulypoorisbad,...”由此可知,貧窮是不好的,是可怕的。所以應(yīng)填"terrible"。

19.根據(jù)最后一段的第二句“...andtimewithfriendsandfamilyaregood.”與家人和朋友在一起是令人愉快的。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"joyful"。

20.根據(jù)最后一段倒數(shù)第二句“...weallwearrose-coloredglasseswhenitcomestoourpastdecision-making...”談到我們過去的決策,我們都是樂觀的。所以,空格處應(yīng)填"inthepast"。
