生存優(yōu)勢。24．A[細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“Theyalsofound...becausethespotsaremorelikethedappled(斑駁的)sunlightinthebusheswherebabygiraffesliketohidefromhungrylionsandhyenas(wildanimalslikedogs)．”可知，身上斑紋較大的小長頸鹿更容易存活，這是因為這些大的斑紋與太陽照進灌木叢落下的斑駁影子相似，而小長頸鹿喜歡藏在灌木叢中，這樣做能讓它們?nèi)谌氕h(huán)境以躲避敵人。故選A項。]25．B[詞義猜測題。畫線詞上文提到保護個體生存的生理特征符合達爾文的自然選擇法則，下文提到如果母親的保護色是有效的，其幼崽就可能經(jīng)遺傳繼承這些斑紋，變得更安全，結(jié)合信息可知，有助于生存的斑紋會被遺傳，體現(xiàn)了進化論。故選B項。]26．B[標題歸納題。根據(jù)第一段第一句以及最后一段最后一句可知，文中主要講長頸鹿幼崽可以遺傳母親身上的斑紋，如果這種斑紋是有效的保護色，那么長頸鹿幼崽便有了生存優(yōu)勢，不易被捕食者發(fā)現(xiàn)。故B項作本文標題最佳。]語篇解讀這是一篇議論文。作者認為現(xiàn)在的頒獎典禮過于泛濫，而大多數(shù)獎項由組織機構(gòu)或公司贊助，受益的表面上看也有獲獎人，實際上更多的是贊助商。作者同時對頒獎讓獲獎?wù)叩某删偷玫秸J可這一行為持懷疑態(tài)度。27．C[推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知，作者不贊同泛濫成災(zāi)的頒獎典禮，像莎士比亞、達·芬奇或者亞當·斯密等偉人并沒有得過什么獎，但仍然偉大。所以作者提及這些名人是為提出中心思想鋪路。故選C。]28．A[細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句中的“...inthepast，scientistsandartistscouldwin‘patronage’fromrichpeople—akingoralordwouldgivetheartistorscientistmoneytohavethempainttheirpalacesorhelpthemdevelopnewwaysofmakingmoney.”可知，在過去，科學(xué)家和藝術(shù)家通過王公貴族雇請他們想生財之道或作畫贏得富人的“贊助”。故選A。]29．D[細節(jié)理解題。從倒數(shù)第二段第一、二句“Mostawardsceremoniesarenowsponsoredbybigorganizationsorcompanies.Thismeansthatitisnotonlythepersonwhowinstheawardwhobenefitsbutalsothesponsors.”可知，獲利更多的是贊助商們。故選D。]30．C[作者態(tài)度題。由最后一段的內(nèi)容可知，表面上是雙贏，但實際上贏家是市場。最后一個問句表明作者對頒獎讓獲獎?wù)叩某删偷玫秸J可持懷疑態(tài)度。故選C。]語篇解讀這是一篇說明文。健忘是衰老的正常表現(xiàn)。隨著年齡的增長，身體的各個部位都會發(fā)生變化，包括大腦。一些記憶問題與健康問題有關(guān)，而這些健康問題是可以治療的。文章介紹了應(yīng)對這些生活變化的方法。31．F32.E33.G34.D35.C語篇解讀本文是一篇夾敘夾議文。文章講述了作者禮貌待人的故事以及作者從中學(xué)到的道理。36．D[important重要的；available可獲得的；delightful令人愉快的；optional隨意的，可選擇的?？崭袂爸v如果“我”對姐姐不禮貌地話，她們就會收拾“我”。因此在“我”小時候的家里，禮貌并不是可有可無的。故選D。]37．A[makethemostof充分利用；getreadyfor為……做準備；givewayto屈服，讓步，讓……先行；putforward提出。根據(jù)空格后一句姐姐讓“我”開門，幫她們?nèi)胱芍齻兂浞掷妹恳粋€機會來培養(yǎng)“我”。故選A。]38．D[根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“haveafewgentlemenaroundhere”和倒數(shù)第二段中的“REALLYagentleman”可知，姐姐的目的是把“我”培養(yǎng)成一個有禮貌的紳士。故選D。]39．B[根據(jù)語境可知，此處指讓“我”幫她們在吃飯時入座。故選B。]40．C[根據(jù)下文可知，此處指“我”為她扶著門讓門開著。hold意為“抓住”，holdthedooropen意為“將門撐開著”。故選C。]41．C[“我”好心幫一位女士開門，而她卻怒視著“我”并大聲質(zhì)問“我”，這個反應(yīng)是出乎“我”意料的。故選C。]42．A[s
