150、rowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!(另一些人认为喝热牛奶会让你drowsy。还有一个古老的说法是，数羊会让你睡着)”可知，此处在讲述有助于睡眠的方法。由此推知，喝牛奶有助于睡眠，会让你昏昏欲睡，划线词drowsy与a little sleepy“有点困意”意思一致。故选D。3推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Sleep is necessary for good health.(睡眠对身体健康是必要的)”可推知，睡眠不足可能会让你身体不好。故选B。4细节理解题。根据倒数第二段

151、中的“Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs,your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM.(研究睡眠的科学家指出，当你做梦时，你的眼球开始更快地移动(尽管你的眼皮是闭着的)。这个睡眠阶段被称为快速眼动)”可知，快速眼动阶段是在做梦，并且眼球会转动。故选D。5B 6B 7C 8A【导语】本文是篇新闻报道。文章报道美国食物过敏发病情况和相关病理理

152、论，同时给出专业的建议。5推理判断题。根据第二段中“When the body labels a food as harmful, the immune system treats that food like a threat. It sends chemical-signaling proteins, called cytokines, to fight the invader. These cytokines help regulate the bodys immune response and the accompanying inflammation (发炎).(当身体将某种食物标记

153、为有害食物时，免疫系统就会将其视为威胁。它会发送一种叫做细胞因子的化学信号蛋白来对抗入侵者。这些细胞因子有助于调节身体的免疫反应和伴随的炎症。)”和第三段中“Someone can have a very mild reaction and just start to feel itchy, like they just had a bug bite. But its just this itchiness that came out of nowhere,” says Dr. Waheeda Samady, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at North

154、western University Feinberg School of Medicine.(“有些人可能会有非常轻微的反应，只是开始感到发痒，就像他们刚刚被虫子咬了一样。但是这种瘙痒是不知道从哪里来的，”西北大学范伯格医学院儿科学副教授Waheeda Samady博士说。)”可知，当发免疫系统发现有害食物时，就会发送细胞因子来对抗入侵者，从而引发过敏反应。所以食物过敏从本质上来说，就是你的身体保护你免受入侵的过程。故选B项。6词句猜测题。结合常识和划线词下文“and the immune system in turn tags food proteins as an invader som

155、ething to be fought.(免疫系统反过来将食物蛋白质标记为入侵者需要对抗的东西。)”可推知，免疫系统将正常的食物蛋白质标记需要对抗的入侵者，是因为这些食物蛋白不是通过正常的渠道进行体内。所以“food particles (颗粒) first get into the body through a disrupted skin barrier (食物颗粒首先通过disrupted皮肤屏障进入人体)”中“a disrupted skin”是指被破坏的皮肤。通过“被破坏的皮肤”进入体内的食物蛋白质就会被免疫系统标记需要对抗的入侵者。划线词disrupted与broken同义。故选B

156、项。7推理判断题。第四段中“One emerging theory as to why some people get food allergies is that food particles (颗粒) first get into the body through a disrupted skin barrier, and the immune system in turn tags food proteins as an invader something to be fought.(一种关于为什么有些人会对食物过敏的新理论是，食物颗粒首先通过被破坏的皮肤屏障进入人体，免疫系统反过来将食

157、物蛋白质标记为入侵者需要对抗的东西。)”提出 “被破坏的皮肤屏障与食物过敏”相关这一新理论。第五段中“Kids with eczema (湿疹). These children are at a much higher risk of developing a food allergy compared to other kids. (患有湿疹的孩子。与其他孩子相比，这些孩子患食物过敏的风险要高得多。)”通过列举“患有湿疹的孩子患食物过敏的风险要高得多”来证明上述理论。故选C项。8推理判断题。通读全文，文章报道了美国食物过敏发病情况和相关病理理论。结合最后一段专家的建议“If you thin

159、lergic.(如果你认为你有食物过敏，Waheeda建议咨询医疗保健提供者，如果你有机会的话。医生可以进行过敏测试，或者在某些情况下，仅根据症状进行诊断。获得专业的建议可以让你免于避免那些你实际上可能不会过敏的食物。)”可推知，本文是针对读者的科普文本，以帮助普通民众认识和应对食物过敏，所以很可能出自报纸中与健康相关的版块。故选A项。9A 10A 11C 12D【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了坦桑尼亚作家Abdulrazak Gurnah荣获2021年诺贝尔文学奖，并介绍了作家的生活经历、创作主题和作品。9推理判断题。根据第二段中Gurnah所说的话“Its just great it

(这真是太棒了这是一个巨大的奖项，有这么多优秀的作家我仍在接受这个信息中我真的必须等到我听到宣布后才相信它。)”可知，Gurnah获得2021年诺贝尔文学奖时没有一下子就接受这个信息，他感觉自己能在众多优秀作家中脱颖而出是难以置信的。由此可知，他的感受是惊讶。故选A项。10细节

161、理解题。根据第三段中“The Royal Academy has noted that the theme of the refugees suffering runs throughout Gurnahs work. (瑞典皇家学院指出，难民苦难的主题贯穿于Gurnah的作品之中。)”可知，Gurnah的作品主题是难民的苦难生活。故选A项。11细节理解题。根据最后一段中“His latest novel is Afterlives which was published in 2020 and it takes up where Paradise ends. (他的最新小说是来生，于2020

162、年出版，讲述了天堂结束后的故事。)”可知，小说来生接续了天堂的故事，与之紧密相连。故选C项。12主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其结合第一段中“The Swedish Academy announced on Thursday, 7 October that the Nobel Prize in Literature 2021 is awarded to Abdulrazak Gurnah. (10月7日星期四，瑞典学院宣布，2021年诺贝尔文学奖授予Abdulrazak Gurnah。)”可知，文章就坦桑尼亚作家Abdulrazak Gurnah荣获2021年诺贝尔文学奖这一事件展开报道，并借此介绍

163、了作家的生活经历、创作主题和作品。因此，文章主要内容是Gurnah获得诺贝尔文学奖这一事件。故选D项。13A 14A 15C 16D【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国政府启用能源计划。13词义猜测题。根据第一段“Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that is released from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas).

(政府希望使英国的能源更清洁，更便宜，并为英国生产自己的能源，而

165、不是依赖其他国家。)”可推断政府希望在能源生产方面更加独立。故选A。15推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, says the plans will lead to clean and secure energy made in Britain. Some people have said that these plans dont go far enough and wont help people who are struggling with high energy bills at the moment. (英国首相鲍里

166、斯约翰逊(Boris Johnson)表示，这些计划将导致英国制造清洁、安全的能源。一些人说，这些计划还远远不够，无法帮助那些目前正与高昂的能源账单作斗争的人们。)”可推断一些人对能源计划不赏识，故选C。16主旨大意题。通断全文，尤其第一段“The UK Government has announced plans to build eight nuclear power reactors as part of its new energy strategy. (英国政府宣布计划建造8座核反应堆，作为其新能源战略的一部分。)”可知文章主要讲述了英国政府启用能源计划，D项“英国政府启动能源计划”

180、 the health experts at WebMD.(“辛辣食物也会破坏睡眠，因为它们会导致胃灼热。躺着会加重胃灼热，而胃灼热带来的不适会妨碍睡眠，”WebMD的健康专家说)”可知，最后三段内容讲述了过多辛辣食物的危害。故选B项。30主旨大意题。根据第二段“Eating spicy food six or seven days a week even just once a day lowered death rates by 14 percent, according to a large 2015 study by Harvard and China National Center
