9、么?解此题要结合上下文语境,上文是说他在冰冷的水里游泳身体只能忍受大约20分钟,下文中提到他在游泳时体温在慢慢下降,肌肉控制力也在下降,可推测出此处的it指的是hisbody,故选A项。3.A细节理解题。本题题干意为:关于在冰冷的水中游泳Pugh给出了什么建议?根据第四段的“DoctorsandPughcautionthatonemustreceivemonthsoftrainingtoswiminsuchcoldwaters.”可知,一个人要想在冰冷的水里游泳必须得训练几个月才可以,即做足准备工作,故选A项。4.A主旨大意题。本题题干意为:文章的合适的题目是什么?文章主要讲述的是Pugh 为

27、tfear.(然而,如果不或多或少地克服一些困难,自信心永远不会被真正地建立自信心在很大程度上来源于克服恐怖的事和抛开过去的恐惧的经历。)”可知,自信主要来源于战胜恐惧的经历,故答案为A项(战胜恐惧)。B:强大的技能;C:巨大的决心;D:做明智的选择。2.D猜测词义题。本题题干意为:第二段中的画线词“conspicuous”最适合被“”替换。根据第二段(当我们忘记,即使是瞬时忘记我们所做的事的目的时,自我怀疑会越来越严重。当我们的目的明确时,自我怀疑仍会存在,但是它会保持在属于它的位置。)可推知画线词“conspicuous”的意思是“明显的,明确的”,故答案为D项。A:任意的;B:模棱两可的

28、,模糊不清的;C:紧急的。3.B推理判断题。本题题干意为:第三段主要是以什么方式展开的?根据文章第三段内容尤其是关键词“Similarly”可推知,本段主要采用了比较的写作手法,因此答案为B项。A:通过举例;C:通过分类;D:通过分析因果。4.C主旨大意题。本题题干意为:文章的最佳题目是什么?通读全文尤其是最后三段可推知,本文主要介绍自我怀疑有哪些好处,因此本文的最佳标题是C项。高级语块self-doubt自我怀疑accomplishonesgoal实现某人的目标长难句Whenyoureceiveavaccine,youareinjectedwithaweakstrainofavirus,to

64、hure答案语篇解读本文为新闻报道,报道了中国在生命科学领域所取得的突破成功克隆了两只猕猴。1.D细节理解题。本题题干意为:对于两只克隆猕猴的描述哪个是正确的?根据第一段最后一句(这项技术和1996年用于克隆羊多莉的技术类似)可知答案为D项。根据第二段第一句(1999年出生的猴子Tetra是世界上第一只克隆猴)可排除A项(它们是世界上最先被克隆出来的猴子);第一段第一句中“usingnon-reproductivecells”与B项中的“usingreproductivecells”相悖,故排除B项;C项(它们会被喂养以满足实验需要)在文中未提及,故排除。2.A猜测词义题。本题题干意为:第四段

65、中的画线词在意思上与最接近。第三段提到:为了研发药物和进行其他实验测试,科学家们不得不在世界各地购买猴子,这样不仅成本高,对环境不利,并且由于买来的这些猴子基因不同,还会使得测试结果也不精确。第四段介绍说:通过体细胞克隆猴子可以解决这个问题,即在短期内大规模培养出相同基因的猴子,由此可知identical的意思是“相同的”,故答案为A项。3.B细节理解题。本题题干意为:从文中可以得知什么?根据最后一段第一句Monkeysandhumansarebothprimates,sotheyaremuchcloselyrelatedandtestingonmonkeysissupposedtobease

66、ffectiveastestingonhumans.(猴子与人都属于灵长类动物,所以他们关系非常密切,对猴子有效的测试应该同样适用于人类)可知答案为B项。文中并未提到孙强从事克隆猴工作,故排除A项;根据倒数第二段中However,drugsthatworkonmicemightnotworkorevenhaveseveresideeffectsonhumansbecausethetwospeciesaresodifferent.(然而,对于老鼠有效的药物未必对人类有效,甚至可能对人类有严重的副作用,因为两个物种差异巨大)”可排除C项;根据第二段内容可知通过胚胎分裂克隆的动物无法进行基因改造来满

67、足实验需求,由此可知,并非所有的克隆猴都能削减实验费用,故排除D项。4.A推理判断题。本题题干意为:上面这篇文章最可能在被读到。本文报道的是在克隆方面所取得的科研成果,应该出自科学杂志,故答案为A项。高级语块nucleartransferring细胞核移植modifyv.(略微地)修改,更改长难句Tetra,amonkeybornin1999,istheworldsfirst-everclonedmonkey,butitwasdoneusingasimplermethodcalledembryosplitting(胚胎分裂),andcouldnotbegeneticallymodifiedto

68、suitexperimentalneeds.1999年出生的猴子Tetra是世界上第一只克隆猴,但这是通过一种相对简单的被称为胚胎分裂的方式实现的,这种方式无法进行基因改造来满足实验需求。本句中并列连词but连接两个分句;在第二个分句中谓语部分wasdone.与couldnotbegeneticallymodified并列,由and连接。Passage8Afewweeksago,IcalledanUbertotakemetotheBostonairportforaflighthomefortheholidays.AsIslidintothebackseatofthecar,thewarmint
