elivered”。故选D项。17.选项B意思为:你所需要的就是一个WiFi连接。空前一句提到“社交媒体工具让我们了解朋友在做什么,并维持友谊。”其中“Socialmediatools”与选项B中“WiFiconnection”是相关
的。故选B项。18.选项A意思为:那得看情况而定。空前一句问道“你在网上„加‟某人为好友时,这是否意味着他们真的是你的朋友呢?”;空后一句“如果人们总是在网上交换真实的个人信息,那么是的”,是紧接着回答上文的问题。选项A是呈上启下。故选A项。19.选项E意思为:记住这句话:在互联网时代,没有人知道

.根据后一句“Foranother,itproveshowmoderntechnologychangesthewaystudentsareeducatedandencouragesfurtherresearchanddevelopme

引入虚拟社区。F项“一方面,令人印象深刻的做法为其他国家树立了良好的榜样”承上启下,F项中的“Foronething”与下文的“Foranother”相呼应,符合语境。故选F项。18.根据后一句“TheonlineeducationplatformMOOC,w
hereawidevarietyofcoursesisavailable,hasattractedtheworld'stopuniversitiestouploadandshareresourceswithstudentsaroundtheworld.”可知,在线教育平台MOOC提供了
各种各样的课程,吸引了世界顶尖大学与世界各地的学生上传和共享资源。D项“此外,网络教育对大学教育来说是相当可以接受的”承上启下,D项中的“collegeeducation”与下文的“attractedtheworld'stopuniversities”相呼应,符合语境。故选D项
。19.根据后一句“Forexample,ruralstudentswithnoaccesstotheInternetandtelevisionmightbeleftbehindinthisnewmode.”可知,例如,在这种新模式下,无法上网和看电视的农村学生可能会落在后面。A项“然而,在线教学

gfailures.G.Knowinghowtofinish,inotherwords,wasmoreimportantthanbeingclosetofinishing.【答案】16.E17.D18.A19.G20.C【解析】这是一篇说明文。人们常说“失败是成功之母”。
这句话虽然有一定道理,但并没有告诉我们如何化输为胜。文章主要介绍了日本教育心理学教授Manalo的一项研究表明学生越早失败,他们就能越早前进。告诉我们要教会学生不要害怕失败,这会让目标更容易实现。16.根据上文Peopleoftensaythat“failureisthemotherofsu
ccess”.可知人们常说“失败是成功之母”。以及第二段中Theissue‟s15studiesprovideteachersandeducationalresearcherswithaguideforach
ievingsuccess.可知本期的15项研究为教师和教育研究者提供了成功的指南。由此可知,本句承接上文对“失败是成功之母”这句话进行评价,认为虽然说得有道理,但是也指出这句话并没有告诉我们如何将失败变成胜利,与后文一项研究提供了
成功指南相呼应。故E选项“这句话虽然有一些道理,但并没有告诉我们如何将失败变成胜利”符合上下文语境,故选E。17.根据后文Anotherconfirmedthatadviceonfailuresismostconstructivewhenthereceiverispreparedtoexpe
rienceunpleasantfeelings.可知另一项研究证实,当接受失败的人准备经历不愉快的感觉时,关于失败的建议最有建设性。由此可知,本句是在说明一项研究结果,且后文Another与D选项中
One相对应,one…another…表示“一个……另一个……”。故D选项“一项研究表明,学生越早失败,他们就能越早进步”符合上下文语境,故选D。18.根据本段第一句Manaloandhisco-authorsalsof
ocusedonovercomingoneeverydayformoffailure:notcompletingatask.可知Manalo和他的合著者们还专注于克服一种常见的失败:没有完成任务。由此可知,这项研究需要在学生
们完成写作任务之前就停止。故A选项“然而,所有这些都在完成前停止了”符合上下文语境,故选A。19.根据上文Afterwardtheresearchersfoundthatthoseintheinstructedgroupweremorewillingtocompletetheirarti
cles,comparedwiththosewholackedguidance—evenifthelatterwereclosertobeingdone.可知之后,研究人员发现,与缺乏指导的小组相比,接受指导的小组更愿意完成他们的文
章——即使后者更接近完成。由此可知,本句承接上文说明,这项研究结果证明,知道如何完成比接近完成更重要。故G选项“换句话说,知道如何完成比接近完成更重要”符合上下文语境,故选G。20.根据后文StephanieCo
uch,thedirectoroftheLemelson-MITProgram,holdstheopinion.Couch,whoseworkwasalsofeaturedinthespecialissue,saysthatwesh
ouldtellthemtothinkoffailureaspartofaprocesstowardsuccess.可知Lemelson-MIT项目主任StephanieCouch持有这种观点。Couch的作品也出现在本期特刊中。他说,我们应该告诉他们
,失败是走向成功的过程中的一部分。由此可知,失败是走向成功的过程中的一部分,因此要教会学生不要害怕失败,反而会让目标更容易实现。故C选项“教学生不要害怕失败会让目标更容易实现”符合上下文语境,故选C。(2020届江西省赣州市高三二模)Asmoreworkcan

stryingtoworkfromhomewithschool-agekids.【答案】16.D17.A18.F19.G20.C【解析】本文是一篇说明文。在家工作可能会遇到许多分心的事物,作者就如何避免分心给出了一些建议。16.根
据前文“Onthesurface,workingfromhomesoundslikeadreamcometrue.”可知从表面上看,在家工作就像美梦成真。根据后文“Afterall,therearecountlessdistractions(分心的事物)athome.”可
知在家里会有无数让你分心的事物。这里前后文在内容上形成了对比,前文说在家里工作看起来挺好,后文说家里有分心的事物,说明实际上在家里工作没有表面上好。承上启下,D项(但是现实要复杂得多)切题。故选D项。17.本空要选
一个小标题来概括第二段的内容。根据第二段中的“Whenyouworkfromhome,dressinginyournormalworkuniformreinforcestheideathatyouareactuallyworking.”可知当你在家工作的时候,穿着工作服
会强化你确实是在工作的想法。也就是说作者提出的建议是穿工作服。A项(起来,穿好衣服)切题,故选A项。18.根据小标题KeepaConsistentSchedule可知这一段作者建议保持一个一致的时间表。根据本段第一句话“Ma
nyofusaremoreproductivewhenweareworkingwithinacertainframework.”可知我们中的许多人当一个特定的框架内工作时会更多产。这里正好解释了为什么作者会提出这种建议,连接上文,F项
(这就是为什么制定和遵守一个时间表是如此重要。)切题。故选F项。19.根据后文“Insteadofworkingastraightdaytimescheduleof9to5,dividetheworkdayinto
twosections,from9a.m.to2p.m.,...hoursintheevening.”可知作者建议不要一直朝九晚五地工作,把工作日分成两部分,从早上9点到下午2点,然后从晚上7点到10点。有了这个时间表,你可以在孩子放学回家后陪他们几个小时,一起做晚饭,一起吃饭,然后
在晚上回到办公室再花几个小时(工作)。G项(对于那些想在家照顾学龄儿童的人来说,这是一个很好的建议。)与小标题(灵活安排家庭时间)一致且与后文相呼应,故选G项。20.根据小标题HaveaBackupPlan可知作者建议要有一个后备计
划。根据前文“Thereareanynumberofmini-crisesthatcaneruptathome:lossofpowerorInternetservice,unscheduledplaydatesoraneighborcuttingdownatreeafewfeetfrom
yourofficewindow.”可知家里可能会爆发许多小危机:停电或断网,计划外的娱乐活动,或者邻居砍倒了离你办公室窗户几英尺远的一棵树。根据后文“ItshouldbesomeplaceclosetoyourhomewithareliableInternetconnecti
onwhereyoucanworkinpeace.”可知它应该离你家很近,有可靠的网络连接,这样你可以安心工作。综合以上可知作者建议有一个备用的地方来应对这些危机,C项(你需要一个备用工作区)放在这里符合语境,后文的it就是指代C项中的“analternativework
space.”。故选C项。(2020届江西省南昌市高三二模)Let'sfaceit:Thelasthourofanyone'sworkdayisnotalwaysfruitful.Asthehoursofpea

。16.根据后文“Howpositivelyyouendyourprofessionaldaycanpromotesuccessbothinsideandoutsideoftheoffice,”saysRandiLevin,atransitionallifestrategist.Let'sseeh
owsuccessfulpeopleendtheirworkdaywithabang.可知过渡人生策略师RandiLevin说:“以积极的态度结束一天的工作,可以促进你在办公室内外的成功。”让我们来看看成功人士是如何用“砰”的一声结束一天的工作的。由
此可知,本句与上文发生转折,强调有目的地结束一天工作,故F选项“但是有目的地结束一天的工作是有意义的”符合上下文语境,故选F。17.根据后文Similarly,Levinrecommendswritingdown
theday'swinsratherthansetbacksorto-dos,aswellasreviewingyourlistofsuccessesonceamonth.可知类似地,Levin建议你写下当天的成就,而不是挫折或待办事
项,并且每个月回顾一次你的成功清单。由此可知,成功人士会回顾自己的一天,并思考是什么导致了成功,这对其他人来说有借鉴意义。故G选项“他们通常会选择一个案例,并考虑是什么导致了成功”符合上下文语境,故选G。
18.根据后文Instead,theyendtheirdaybythinkingcarefullyabouttheproblemstheymet,brainstormingpossiblesolutions,andthenleavingitfortom
orrow.Theywillsettlethoseproblemsafteragoodnight'ssleep.可知相反,他们在一天结束的时候会仔细思考他们遇到的问题,集思广益可能的解决方案,然后把它留到明天。他们会在好好睡一觉后解决这些问题。由
此可知,本句与下文的内容相反,指的是成功的人从不把一天的失败带回家,而是在一天结束的时候会仔细思考他们遇到的问题,想出解决方案,然后第二天再去解决。故D选项“他们从不把一天的失败带回家”符合上下文语境,故选D。19.根据后文Rat
herthandetailingthetasksthatneedtogetdone,thiskindoflistencouragespeopletofocusonfindingsolutionsfor
theirprojects.可知这类清单鼓励人们专注于为自己的项目寻找解决方案,而不是详细列出需要完成的任务。由此可知,本句是在说明成功人会列出行动列表,后文中thiskindoflist可对应到E选项中a
nactionlist。故E选项“这些人做的另一项工作是创建一个行动列表”符合上下文语境,故选E。20.根据后文Itwillprovideyouwithnotonlyaconcreteandpositivewaytobegintomorrow,butals
oitwillallowyoutoseemuchmorepossibilities.可知它不仅会为你明天的开始提供一个具体而积极的方式,而且还会让你看到更多的可能性。由此可知,此处是在说明这个行动清单的重要性——清单是对自己的承诺。故A选项“这个清单是对你自己的承诺”符合上下文语境,故选

16.D17.A18.B19.G20.E【解析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了如何更好地管理时间的几点建议。16.空前说时间管理是计划和控制在具体活动上花多少时间的过程,你完成的事情的数量和质量取决于你如何有效地管理你的时间,下文又介
绍了管理时间的几点建议,此处需要一个承上启下的过渡句,既要对应上文提到的时间管理话题,又要引出下文介绍的几点建议,故D项(以下是一些如何更好地管理时间的建议)符合语境。故选D。17.空后说不要仅仅依靠你的记忆,这说明你要把你的计划写下来,故A项(把它们写下来)符合语境。故选A。18.此
处为本段小标题,根据本段内容,特别是根据“Considershuttingthemoffcompletelyasyouworkonataskthatrequiresyourfullattention.”可知,当你做一个需要你全神贯注的任务时,把社交媒体完全关掉
,因此本段主要讲的是要专注于所做的事情,不要分心,故B项(专注于你所做的事情)符合语境。故选B。19.空后说他们努力做好少数几个真正重要的领域,并有勇气对其他的一切说“不”,这说明此处应该会提到一种成功人士敢于说“不”的情况,空后一句中
的“They”指代的就是G项中的“businessleaders”,故G项(许多商界领袖把他们的成功归结为简单地说“不”)符合语境。故选G。20.空前说休息对你的大脑有好处,如果你休息一下,你会表现得更好,此处总结上文,讲的是让大脑保持清醒的好处,故E项(处理难题的方法来自于清醒的头
脑)符合语境。故选E。(2020届山西省太原市高三二模)WhyDoYouMishearPopularSongLyrics(歌词)?WhenLilNasX's"OldTownRoad"toppedthechar

错,本文解释了这一现象出现的原因。16.根据上文“Butasignificantsubgroupcaughtthisinstead“I‟mgonnatakemyhorsetothehotelroom.”可知但有相当一
部分人把这句歌词听成了:“I‟mgonnatakemyhorsetothehotelroom.(我要把我的马带到酒店房间。)”根据后文“We'vebeenmisunderstandingsonglyricsfordecades,”可知我们听错歌词
(这种现象)已经有几十年了。结合前后文可知,听错歌词这件事不是第一次发生了,承上启下,A项(这不是第一次)切题。故选A项。17.根据本空后的“Whennoise...soundsinsongsareoftenmuddyandunclear.I
nthiscase,ourbrainsstruggletofindwhatmakessense.”可知当噪声冲击耳膜时,细小的毛发将其转换为电信号,该信号通过听觉神经传播到颞叶。如果声音清晰且术语熟悉,那么我们就“听到”对某人所说的话的最准确的翻译。但是音乐可以盖过歌词,
歌手可以用额外的能力发音。歌曲的声音往往浑浊不清。在这种情况下,我们的大脑会努力寻找有意义的东西。由此可知,本段主要是在解释人们听歌时的大脑活动,解释为什么会听错歌词。G项(那么,为什么吉米·亨德里克斯的歌词“亲吻天空”经常变
成“亲吻这个家伙”呢?)放在段首正好引出下文的解释,故选G项。18.由前文“Whennoisehitsoureardrums,tinyhairsconvertitintoanelectricsignal,whichtravelsthroughtheauditorynervetothetempor
allobe”可知当噪声冲击耳膜时,细小的毛发将其转换为电信号,该信号通过听觉神经传播到颞叶。D项(在那里,它将神经刺激转化为有意义的词语。)与前文呼应,都是在解释听到歌曲后,大脑的活动过程,D项的there指的就是前文中的“thetemporallobe”,D项的nerve为前文“n
erve”的复现。故选D项。19.根据前文“Forexample,ifthemindcan'tfirstlycomprehendtakingahorsetoanoldtownroad,itoffersupanalternativetoquicklysolvetheproblem.”可知如果大脑首先
不能理解带一匹马到一条老城路上(这种歌词),它会提供一个快速解决问题的替代方案。F项(甚至在我们学习了正确的歌词之后,这种误解还会继续下去。)与前文呼应,F项的thattranslation指的就是前文的analternative。故选F项。20.根据前文“Infact,accordingt
oEthofer,previousknowledgeofthemondegreenwillmakeyoumorelikelytohearit.”可知实际上,根据Ethofer所说,如果你之前对你听错的词有所了解,你会更有可能把(歌词)听成这个错的词。而E项(那是因为你的
大脑已经为那个版本做好了准备。)正好解释了为什么会出现这种现象,E项中的thatversion指的就是前文中所说的“听错的词”。故选E项。(2020届山西省运城市高三调研)Letterslastforever!Whenwasthelasttimeyouactual

案】16.E17.G18.F19.D20.B【解析】本文是议论文。作者分析了现在邮寄信件减少的原因和手写信件的好处。16.空前一段中提到“人们现在邮寄的信件变少了。”;选项E意思为:人们现在写信少了可能有许
多原因。选项E是顺承上一段的话题,是承上启下。故选E项。17.选项G意思为:但是,我认为用电子邮件或电话取代手写的信件是一个不好的选择。选项G中however表示语义转折;空前一句提到“使用更新的交流方式当然比写信更容易。”;选项G中提到
“这不是一个好的选择”,前后两个句子之间是语义转折。故选G项。18.选项F意思为:我认为电话的缺点是我们不能保存和打印它们。空后一句提到“一遍又一遍地阅读信件”的好处;按照常理,只有保存下来的信件才能“一遍又一遍地阅读”;however表示转折
关系,因此所填句子应该是说明“更新的交流方式”的不足之处。故选F项。19.选项D意思为:例如,在写一封信的时候需要很多的思考。空后下文提到“一旦组织好想法,需要把词语写在纸上。努力把想法写在纸上又常常加深我们的思考。”,这是说明写信的过程是一个思考的过程。与选项D话题相符。故选D项。
20.此题线索是词汇复现。选项B意思为:这样做,我们创建的不仅仅是一条信息。选项B中“wecreate…”和空后一句中的“Wecreate…”是并列句式。故选B项。(2020届四川省成都七中高三三诊)LeonardodaVinciandNatureInthemodernworld,artands

,artandsciencearetwoveryseparateactivities,butinLeonardo‟stimetheywerecloselyconnected.Sciencemeantmathematicsa
ndmedicalstudies.可知,在现代世界,艺术和科学是两个非常独立的活动,但在达芬奇的时代,它们是紧密联系在一起的。科学意味着数学和医学研究。由此可知,此处应是提出疑问——科学与艺术有什么联系。故B选项“这些与艺术有什么联系呢?”符合上下文语境。故选B。17.根据上文H
ecouldalsousemathematicstoplacethingsinrelationshiptoeachotherinadrawingorpaintingsothescenelookedcorrect.可知,他还可以用数学来把事物之间的关系画
在一幅画或油画中,使场景看起来是正确的。由此可知,本句应当承接上文说明他的哪一副作品体现了这种用数学来联系事物之间的关系。故F选项“你会在《最后的晚餐》这幅画中看到这种定位的一个很好的例子”符合上下文语境。故选F。18.根据后文Morethant
his,though,Leonardobelievedthatnumberswereapartofallthingsintheworld,includingmusic,andhesaidthat“withoutthemnothingc
anbedone.”可知,不仅如此,Leonardo相信数字是世界上一切事物的一部分,包括音乐。他说:“没有数字,什么也做不成。”由此可知,Leonardo喜欢音乐,他相信数字是世界上一切事物的一部分,包括音乐。故G选项“Leonardo本人是一个
非常好的音乐家,喜欢演奏乐器和唱歌”符合上下文语境。故选G。19.根据上文Actualexperiencewasmoreimportanttohimthanopinion,andheworkedfromfactstoideas.可知,对他来说,实际经验比意见更重要,他从现实到思想进行工作。由此可知
,本句承接上文继续说明Leonardo的思想。上文中ideas可知对应到C选项中Leonardo‟sideas。故C选项“Leonardo的思想远远超前于他的时代”符合上下文语境。故选C。20.根据后文Hisquicklittlesketches,o
ftendonewhilewanderingoutside,helpedhimtocatchamovementorashape.可知,他经常在外面闲逛的时候画一些速写,帮助他捕捉一个动作或一个形状。由此可知,本段是在说明Leonardo日常喜
欢绘画的情况。故A选项“Leonardo总是在画画”符合上下文语境。故选A。(2020届四川省泸州市高三第三次教学质量诊断)WhentoChangeYourMindsetAllowingnegativethoughtsandpr

一篇说明文。文章从改变心态这一主题出发,列举了一些需要及时改变心态的情况和场景,并相应地给出了建议。16.本段缺少主题句,总结文段内容,给出的建议是不要过分关注消极想法,因为主题句表示的都是需要改变心态的时机和情况,C选项“你看到的消极因素多于积极因素”符合主题句要求,且与文段内容符合。故选C项
。17.本段的主题是“当你在抱怨时”。空白前句指出担心那些问题并不能解决问题,紧跟着A选项“它只会让你感到沮丧”语意连贯,承接自然。故选A项。18.本段的主题是“当你对生活充满抱怨”。空白处位于主题句之后,下文提问让读者对自己抱怨的内容进行分析,那就首先需要关注和观察,D选项“注意你
对自己和别人说的话”符合这一逻辑,适合置于这里。故选D项。19.本段的主题是“你想过上没有痛苦的生活”。文段表示痛苦和挫折是人生常态,想要成长就必须经历这些,B选项置于其后,表示“早晚它会让你变得更加坚强”,符合文意且与普罗大众的认知一致。故选B项。20.本段主题是“你为了自己的问题而怪罪
他人”。空白前句表示如果对别人感到恐惧和生气,为自己的问题苛责别人,就需要改变心态了。F选项“这些消极的想法不会让别人改变”与下文“它们只会让你变得尖酸刻薄”语意连贯,也能对应到上文描述的情绪,符合文意。故选F项。(20

同时还要引出BMX(自行车越野)bikes这个事物。F选项(你看到的可能不是儿童自行车,而是BMX自行车)符合语境。故选F。17.空前提到:BMX的车架很轻,车轮也比其他自行车小。该空承接上文,应该介绍
这种设计的作用。C选项(其目的是快速好用)符合语境。故选C。18.下一句提到:这是一个令人兴奋的,快节奏的赛事有越野轨道,跳跃和转弯。一次最多有8名骑手参加比赛。那么,该句应该提到BMX比赛这个话题。B选项(小
轮车比赛是小轮车的原始形式)符合该语境。故选B。19.空后提到:这些柱子叫做小钉,它们能让骑手做更多的特技。那么空处应该提到posts这个词眼。结合选项,只有G选项(这种小轮车的骑手使用从车轮外伸出的柱子)提到posts,故选G。20.空后提
到:实际上,这项运动已经有65年的历史了。该句和空处构成转折关系,且空处要明确it的指代对象:BMX运动。结合选项,E选项(如今,BMX运动被认为是一项为冒险者准备的运动)符合语境。故选E。(2020届安徽省淮南市高三第二次模拟)HowtoCareforYourMentalHea

要的,此处解释为什么要这样做,故B项(这样你就不会不小心传染别人了)符合语境。17.空前说在隔离期间,试着做一些你喜欢的事情,比如看电视或者你最喜欢的电影,此处承接上文,讲的是除了看电视和电影,你还要做一些
别的事情,故F项(当然,你还应该花时间做一些其他活动)符合语境。18.空后说你可能会觉得不出门就没必要洗澡,然而,保持良好的卫生是很重要的,洗澡实际上能改善你的情绪,这说明搞好个人为生很重要,故A项(自我

查看新闻的时间,这样你就不会陷入一个不断等待更新信息的循环之中,空后又说这样你就看不到最新消息,因此此处还会提到一种看新闻的正确方法,故G项(此外,在使用社交媒体时,为自己设定时间限制)符合语境。(2020届安徽省江淮十校高三第三次联考)Empathy(共情),theabilitytound

,you‟reprobablydoingtoomuch.【答案】16.F17.A18.D19.E20.C【解析】这是一篇议论文。文章作者针对人们对健身存在的误区,介绍了几个合理的健身建议。16.由前两句“Whenyou‟reonajourneytoimprovehealtha
ndfitness,surelyfollowingtheexerciseandnutritionadviceofahotmodelisthewaytogo,right?Wrong!”可知,当你在提升健康和健身的路上时,采用的方式是无疑地跟随热门模特的锻
炼和营养建议,对吗?错误!由此知前文表达的是盲目跟随他人健身方式是错误的。选项F表达的是“跟随其他人的方式会导致你完全脱离轨道”,是对前文表达的“盲目跟随他人健身方式是错误的”进一步解释。故选F。17.由第二段中的第三句“Couldyoubeusingyourtimebetter
?”和第四句“Doyoureallyhaveabsolutelynofreetimeatall?”可知,你能更好地使用你的时间吗?你真的一点空闲时间都没有吗?由此可见,本段涉及的核心对象为time,即时间问题。选项A表达的是“确定你的空闲时间”,和本段的核心对象time相呼应。
故选A。18.由前一句“However,itcouldbeneurological(神经的)tirednessthat‟stalkingyououtofit.”可知,但是它可能是神经疲惫正在说服你不要锻炼。选项D表达的是“它被称之为来自精神上的大脑疲惫
”。选项D中的It是对前一句中的“neurological(神经的)tiredness”的指代,表达的都是大脑疲惫。故选D。19.由前一句“Ifroutinemakesyoufeelbalanced,thenby
allaccountscreateaworkoutplan.”可知,如果常规训练让你觉得均衡的,那么从方方面面地去制定一个锻炼计划。选项E表达的是“如果你讨厌常规训练,那么自然而然地会去处理你的训练计划。
”,和前一句形成对比关系。故选E。20.前一句“Ifyou'rejuststartingout,setshort-termgoals(everyfewdays)soyoucanexperiencesuccesssoonerandmoreoften.”表达的是如果你刚好正在开始健身,每几天设置
短期目标,这样你能更快更多地经历成功。后一句“Alltoooftenpeoplequittooquicklywhenthejourneyistoolong.”表达的是当健身路太长的时候,经常短暂目标训练的人们很快就放弃了。选项C表达的是“但是准备好继续定期地设置新的
目标”,和后一句“短暂目标训练的人容易放弃”存在因果关系,和前一句“短期目标的优势”形成转折关系。故选C。(2020届河北省邯郸市高三第二次模拟)Now,accordingtoarecentBrighamYoungUniversitystudy,t

raffectsmood.【答案】12.D13.B14.B15.D【解析】这是一篇说明文,最新研究表明,日出日落之间的时间长短比各种天气以及人们接收的日照量更能影响人们的情绪。12.细节理解题。根据第一段中内容和第二段中“Thestudyfoundthatpeoplearemoreli
kelytoreportmentaltroubleduringshorterdayswithlesssunshine.”“研究发现,人们在日照较少的短时间内更容易出现精神问题。”以及第四段内容可知,这个新研究发现:日照的时间长短是影响人们心情的主要因素。故选D。13.推理判断题。根据第三段描述,普
遍观念认为,炎热天气,阴雨天气,或污染天气使人情绪低沉,感到沮丧,而新发现令人惊奇,是因为它发现:相对于其他因素而言,日照时间越短越会令人精神苦闷。故选B。14.推理判断题。这项研究表明:影响人们精神和情绪的主要是日照时间的长短。根据文中最后一
句“…thatcanpreventemotionaldistressduringperiodswhenthesuntimeisless,suchasinwintermonths.”也可判断出,夏季对人们的精神和情绪最有好处了。故选B。15.推理判断。根据倒
数第二段内容可知,许多研究都想探索天气与情绪之间的关系,这个新研究考虑了许多重要因素,使得它在以往的基础上有所改进。所以,这个新研究的目的仍然是探索天气对情绪的影响。故选D。(2020届河北省邯郸市高三第二次模拟)Chefstypicallytoss(抛)th

ature”可知,F选项与上文提到的高温属于同一话题。故选F项。17.根据D选项中的关键词“repetition”可知,D选项与上句中的“repeated”属于同一话题,顺理成章。故选D项。18.G选项中的forins
tance是对上句中“usesimilarlycomplexpatterns”的例证。故选G项。19.根据空白处前一句:Therockingandslidingmotionsshouldn‟tbedoneatthesametime.摇摆和滑动不应该同时进行。同时根据C选项中的“Iftheyare”
可推断,这个省略句的完整形式是:Iftheyaredoneatthesametime,thericewon‟tmixwellandcouldburn。如果是这样的话,米饭就不能混合在一起,会烧糊的。所以在语境上选项C符合题意。故选C项。20.此空格位于段首,一般与上段
内容有联系,同时引出下段内容。上段提到摇晃炒锅可以炒出好吃的菜。而本段主要讲述厨师的劳累。由此判断上下段之间为转折关系。由A选项中的But以及内容可知,A选项符合语境。故选A项。
