gm]B

解+析|推理判斷題。根據第三段內容可知，她給學生講環(huán)境研究的情感壓力，她讓她的24個學生

面對沒有簡單的解決方法這一事實。由此可知,Alkinson的課程目的是讓學生們更加關注環(huán)境

問題，故選B項。

26.Whichofthefollowingwordsbestexplainsuintractable^^underlinedinParagraph3?

A.Simple.B.Difficult.

C.c-o/mmon.D.Interesting.

51]B

解;而詞義猜測題。根據上文可知,Atkinson用美洲土著部落、科學家以及積極分子們的經歷讓

她的24個學生面對沒有簡單的解決方法這個事實，結合該句句意可知，這是一個如此困難的問

題以至于學生們將用他們的余生來解決它，故選B項。

ttSixmonthsintothework...discusshisconcemsaboutachangingclimate.,,"5r知,Dillon在環(huán)保組織做了

六個月志愿者之后，他認為在Atkinson的課堂上他可以討論他對氣候變化的擔憂。由此可推

【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。本文介紹了生活在歐洲的山鳥的生存狀況。這些山鳥

對氣候變化非常敏感，而日趨嚴重的溫室效應破壞了它們原本的棲息地,而它們卻又無法在更
