C、NotGiven

【正確答案】B

【答案解析】答案選Bo原文說(shuō)的是兒童之所以能夠完全掌握母語(yǔ)部分原因在于

兒童自身，部分原因在于孩子周圍人們的行為。問(wèn)題句說(shuō)〃兒童母語(yǔ)學(xué)得好的原

B、ItwasthefirsttimethatTomhaddatedagirl.

C、Tomwasblind.

D、Tomwashandsomeandpopularwiththegirls.

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】答案選A。細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。從Thetwoweresatisfiedwitheachother

可知，相親過(guò)后，兩人對(duì)對(duì)方都很滿意，所以A選項(xiàng)正確，湯姆第一次見(jiàn)對(duì)方就

留下了很好的印象。B項(xiàng)所表述內(nèi)容在文中找不到根據(jù)，不能判斷這是湯姆第幾

次約會(huì)。根據(jù)文章描述，湯姆只是near-sighted,遠(yuǎn)不到盲了的地步。文章僅講

述了湯姆和某一個(gè)女孩相親的精力，對(duì)他的個(gè)人魅力以及是否受女孩歡迎并未提

及。

人們逐漸意識(shí)到了操縱機(jī)器人不是件容易的事情，所以使用率就下降了。所以應(yīng)

該選C。

A、KillingPowerofAncientVolcanicEruptions

B、AccountingfortheKillingPowerofOlderEruptions

C、CalculationoftheKillingPowerofOlderEruptions

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】本段第一句話是說(shuō)：Wignallcalculatedthe"killingefficiency"forthese

volcanoes...；Wignall計(jì)算了這些火山的"滅絕效率”……；其中killingefficiency與

IdllingPower意思差不多，屬于同義詞轉(zhuǎn)換，因此選擇B或C,但是accountfor意

思是：（在數(shù)量方面）占；說(shuō)明（原因等）不符合句意，因此不選擇B。
