D.Aneducationalreview.【答案】8.B9.A10.D11.C【解析】【分析】這是一篇說明文。文章介紹了一項有關素食的科學預測結果并討論了畜牧業(yè)對環(huán)境的影響，以及解決方案。【8題詳解】推理判斷題。根據劃線部分前文“IntheUS,forexample,anaveragefamilyoffouremitsmoregreenhousegasesbecauseofthemealtheyeatthanfromdrivingtwocars”（例如，在美國，一個四口之家平均每餐所排放的溫室氣體比開兩輛車排放的還要多，）可知，飯餐所排放的溫室氣體比汽車還要嚴重，從而推斷出劃線部分“butitiscars,notsteaks,thatregularlycomeupindiscussionsaboutglobalwarming.”（但在有關全球變暖的討論中經常出現(xiàn)的是汽車，而不是牛排。）是指我們的飲食選擇對氣候變化的影響常常被低估。故選B項?！?題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第四段中“First,itisnecessarytokeeplivestockforenvironmentalpurposes.”（首先，為了保護環(huán)境，有必要飼養(yǎng)牲畜。）可知，飼養(yǎng)牲畜是為了保護環(huán)境，再根據PeterAlexander所說“Ifwetookallthesheepaway,theenvironmentwouldlookdifferentandtherewouldbeapotentialnegativeimpactonbiodiversity.”（如果我們把所有的羊都拿走，環(huán)境看起來就會不同，對生物多樣性也會有潛在的負面影響。）可知，PeterAlexander提到羊，是為了說明牲畜對環(huán)境的重要影響。故選A項?！?0題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第三段中“Food,especiallylivestock,alsotakesupalotofroom.68%ofagriculturallandintheworldisusedforlivestock.”（食物，尤其是牲畜，也占據了很大的空間。世界上68%的農業(yè)用地被用于飼養(yǎng)牲畜。）可知，牲畜飼養(yǎng)占用很大空間，造成對環(huán)境的不利方面，再根據第四段中“First,itisnecessarytokeeplivestockforenvironmentalpurposes.”（首先，為了保護環(huán)境，有必要飼養(yǎng)牲畜。）可知，飼養(yǎng)牲畜又有利于保護環(huán)境，從而推知，作者對于牲畜的態(tài)度是：事物都有兩面性，一切都是一把雙刃劍。故選D項?！?1題詳解】推理判斷題。通讀全文，根據第一段中“MarcoSpringmannandhiscolleagues,attheOxfordMartinSchool'sFutureofFoodProgramme,builtcomputermodelsthatpredictedwhatwouldhappenifeveryonebecamevegetarianby2050.”（在牛津大學馬丁學院食品未來項目工作的MarcoSpringmann和他的同事們建立了計算機模型，預測如果到2050年所有人都成為素食主義者，將會發(fā)生什么。結果表明，如果全世界都成為素食主義者，溫室氣體排放將減少70%左右。）可知，文章介紹了大學科學工作者利用科學的計算機模型對未來假設的預測結果，從而推測出，該文來自于科學雜志。故選C項。DIt'scommonknowledgethatthewomaninLeonardodaVinci'smostfamouspaintingseemstolookbackatobservers,followingthemwithhereyesnomatterwheretheystandintheroom.Butthiscommonknowledgeturnsoutwrong.Anewstudyfindsthatthewomaninthepaintingisactuallylookingoutatananglethat's15.4degreesofftotheobserver'sright—welloutsideoftherangethatpeoplenormallybelievewhentheythinksomeoneislookingrightatthem.Inotherwords,saidthestudyauthor,Horstmann,''She'snotlookingatyou.''Thisissomewhatironic,becausetheentirephenomenonofaperson'sgaze(凝視)inaphotographorpaintingseemingtofollowthevieweriscalledthe''MonaLisaeffect''.Thateffectisabsolutelyreal,Horstmannsaid.Ifapersonisillustratedorphotographedlookingstraightahead,evenpeopleviewingtheportraitfromananglewillfeeltheyarebeinglookedat.Aslongastheangleoftheperson’sgazeisnomorethanabout5degreesofftoeitherside,theMonaLisaeffectoccurs.Horstmannandhisco-authorwerestudyingthiseffectforitsapplicationinthecreationofartificial-intelligenceavatars(虛擬頭像)whenHorstmanntookalonglookatthe''MonaLisa''andrealizedshewasn'tlookingathim.Tomakesureitwasn'tjusthim,theresearchersasked24peopletoviewimagesofthe''MonaLisa''onacomputerscreen.Sowhydopeoplerepeatthebeliefthathereyesseemtofollowtheviewer?Horstmannisn'tsure.It'spossible,hesaid,thatpeoplehavethedesiretobelookedat,sotheythinkthewomanislookingstraightatthem.Ormaybethepeoplewhofirstcoinedtheterm''MonaLisaeffect''justthoughtitwasacoolname.12.Whatisgenerallybelievedaboutthewomaninthepainting''MonaLisa''?A.Sheattractstheviewerstolookback.B.Sheseemsmysteriousbecauseofhereyes.C.Shefixeshereyesonthebackoftheviewers.D.Shelooksattheviewerswherevertheystand.13.WhatgazerangeinapaintingwillcausetheMonaLisaeffect?A.
