usethetraditionalwaytocontact.（他們的年齡變了，外表變了：但有一件事沒(méi)有改變——他們?nèi)匀皇褂脗鹘y(tǒng)的聯(lián)系方式。）可知，80多年來(lái)，他們一直堅(jiān)持彼此寫(xiě)信聯(lián)系。故選B項(xiàng)。5．主旨大意題。根據(jù)第三段““Ihonestlystruggletoremembersomething,butIwastalkingtoCelestarecentlyandIthinkitwassomethingtodowithanAmericanschool'sscheme,Geoffsaid.”TheymatchedusupwithAmericansforapenpalrelationship,andsomehowIendedupwiththisletterfromanAmericangirl,andwe'vejustkeptcorresponding（通信）eversince.””（杰夫說(shuō)：“老實(shí)說(shuō)，我很難記起一些事情，但我最近和塞萊斯塔聊了聊，我想這可能與一家美國(guó)學(xué)校的計(jì)劃有關(guān)?！彼麄兘o我們介紹了一些美國(guó)人成為筆友，不知怎么的，我收到了一封來(lái)自一個(gè)美國(guó)女孩的信，從那以后我們就一直保持通信。”）可知，GeoffBanks講述了他們之間是如何開(kāi)始保持聯(lián)系的。故選A項(xiàng)。6．推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Deepdown,IrefusetouseZoom.”（內(nèi)心深處，我拒絕使用Zoom）可知，Geoff不喜歡使用Zoom。故選D項(xiàng)。7．推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“Lookingback,GeoffBanksofDevon,EnglandcanhardlyevenrememberhowhefirststartedwritingtohisAmericanfriend,CelestaByrne.”（回想起來(lái)，英格蘭德文郡的杰夫·班克斯甚至不記得他是如何開(kāi)始給他的美國(guó)朋友塞萊斯塔·伯恩寫(xiě)信的。）以及下文的具體敘述可知，文章主要講述了兩位百歲老人彼此寫(xiě)信保持終生友誼的故事。故選C項(xiàng)。8．A9．B10．D11．C【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了美國(guó)政府同意實(shí)驗(yàn)室人造肉的運(yùn)營(yíng)及其當(dāng)前存在的問(wèn)題。8．主旨大意題。根據(jù)第三段“Productionofmeatgrowninalaboratorybeginsbytakingcellsfromfertilizedeggs.Thecellsarecombinedwithnutrientsthatsupporttheirgrowthinsteeltanks.UpsideFoods’slab-grownmeatiscreatedinlargesheets,whicharethenformedintofinalproducts.GoodMeattransformscellsintoseveralchickenproducts.(在實(shí)驗(yàn)室里培育肉類(lèi)的第一步是從受精卵中提取細(xì)胞。這些細(xì)胞與支持它們?cè)阡摴拗猩L(zhǎng)的營(yíng)養(yǎng)物質(zhì)結(jié)合在一起。UpsideFoods的實(shí)驗(yàn)室培育肉是大塊的，然后制成最終產(chǎn)品。GoodMeat將細(xì)胞轉(zhuǎn)化為幾種雞肉產(chǎn)品)”可知，本段主要講述了實(shí)驗(yàn)室人造肉的制作程序。故選A項(xiàng)。9．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段中“Officialsexpectthepriceoflab-grownmeattobeabout$44perkilogram.Atsuchaprice,onlyrichpeoplewillbeabletopurchaselab-grownmeat.Therefore,itwillnotbeavailableingrocerystoresanytimesoon.(官員們預(yù)計(jì)，實(shí)驗(yàn)室培育肉的價(jià)格約為每公斤44美元。在這樣的價(jià)格下，只有富人才能購(gòu)買(mǎi)實(shí)驗(yàn)室培育的肉。因此，它不會(huì)很快在雜貨店里買(mǎi)到)”可知，實(shí)驗(yàn)室人造肉太貴是其在許多超市不受歡迎的原因。故選B項(xiàng)。10．詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)后文“andeasetheeffectsthatfeedinganimalsandanimalwastehaveontheenvironment.(并減輕飼養(yǎng)動(dòng)物和動(dòng)物糞便對(duì)環(huán)境的影響)”中的andease可知，劃線單詞和ease并列，意思相近，應(yīng)是“減少”之意。故選D項(xiàng)。11．細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段“ButMartinsaidthatiftoolittleisproduced,andonlyasmallnumberofpeopleeatit,itwillhavelittleeffectontheenvironment.(但Martin說(shuō)，如果產(chǎn)量太少，只有少數(shù)人食用，對(duì)環(huán)境的影響就很小)”可知，RicardoSanMartin認(rèn)為實(shí)驗(yàn)室人造肉產(chǎn)量太低對(duì)于消費(fèi)和環(huán)境都沒(méi)有實(shí)質(zhì)性的好處，所以擔(dān)心它的產(chǎn)出。故選C項(xiàng)。12．D13．B14．C15．C【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。生活中總會(huì)有一些喜歡走捷徑的人，他們很多時(shí)候可以讓我們的工作和生活更高效。12．推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“BillGatesoncesaid,“Ichoosealazypersontodoahardjob.Becausealazypersonwillfindaneasywaytodoit.”Ifthefactthatthesewordsweresaidbyoneofthemostfinanciallysuccessfulpeopleinhumanhistorydoesn'ttellyousomething,I’mnotsurewhatwill.Thereisalottobesaidfortakingtheshortcut,asitcansooftensaveyoubothtimeandeffortthatyoudidn’tactuallyneedtowaste.(比爾·蓋茨曾經(jīng)說(shuō)過(guò)：“我選擇一個(gè)懶惰的人去做一項(xiàng)艱巨的工作。因?yàn)閼卸璧娜藭?huì)找到一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的方法來(lái)做這件事?！比绻@些話出自人類(lèi)歷史上最成功的財(cái)務(wù)人士之口還不能說(shuō)明什么，我不確定還有什么能說(shuō)明什么。走捷徑有很多好處，因?yàn)樗ǔ？梢怨?jié)省你的時(shí)間和精力，你實(shí)際上不需要浪費(fèi))”可知，文章提及比爾·蓋茨的話目的在于導(dǎo)人話題。故選D項(xiàng)。13．推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“Ifthereisawayforthemtogetwheretheyneedtobewithoutwastinganyextraeffort,youcanbesuretheywillgoforit.(如果有一種方法可以讓他們到達(dá)他們需要的地方而不浪費(fèi)任何額外的努力，你可以肯定他們會(huì)去做的)”以及第三段“Wedon’talwaysneedtomakethingsunnecessarilyhardforourselves,soworkingoutaneasierwayisalwaysworthcelebrating.Afterall,takingshortcutsisn’talwaysabadthinginlife.(我們并不總是需要給自己制造不必要的困難，所以找到一個(gè)更容易的方法總是值得慶祝的。畢竟，在生活中走捷徑并不總是壞事)”可知，作者并不反對(duì)“走捷徑”，所以是建議要妥善對(duì)待“走捷徑”。故選D項(xiàng)。14．推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中“Wedon’talwaysneedtomakethingsunnecessarilyhardforourselves,soworkingoutaneasierwayisalwaysworthcelebrating.Afterall,takingshortcutsisn’talwaysabadthinginlife.Youcanbesurethatthebicyclewasinventedbysomeonewhowassickofwalking,nottomentiontheinventionofthewheelprobablycameaboutaftersomeonedecidedtheydidn’twanttocarryeverythinganymore.(我們并不總是需要給自己制造不必要的困難，所以找到一個(gè)更容易的方法總是值得慶祝的。畢竟，在生活中走捷徑并不總是壞事。你可以肯定，自行車(chē)是由一個(gè)厭倦了走路的人發(fā)明的，更不用說(shuō)輪子的發(fā)明可能是在某人決定他們不想再攜帶任何東西之后)”可知，文章提及自行車(chē)和汽車(chē)的發(fā)明是為了說(shuō)明找到一個(gè)更好的做事方法就是他們的動(dòng)機(jī)。故選C項(xiàng)。15．主旨大意題。根據(jù)最后一段“Fromfindingabetterwaytogoaboutagiventaskinworktofiguringoutaquickerrouteonthejourneyhome,itallcomesbacktotheideaofworkingsmarterbeingbetterthanworkingharder.Youdon'tneedtowaitforapathtobecarvedoutforyou.Ifyourmindhasworkedoutawaytomakethingseasierforyourselfandgetthejobdonequicklythengoaheadanddoit.(從找到一種更好的方法來(lái)完成工作任務(wù)，到找到一條更快的回家路線，這一切都?xì)w結(jié)為聰明地工作比努力地工作更好。你不需要等待別人為你開(kāi)辟一條道路。如果你已經(jīng)想出了一個(gè)讓事情變得更容易、更快完成工作的方法，那就去做吧)”可知，文章主要說(shuō)明了要更聰明、更高效地工作，所以C項(xiàng)“WorkSmarter,NotHarder(更聰明地工作，而不是更努力地工作)”是本文最好的標(biāo)題。故選C項(xiàng)。16．C17．A18．F19．E20．G【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要講述了如何種植室內(nèi)植物，尤其是要注意適度、水分，以
