解析
D1 1-4 ACAD
1. A。本文主要讲毕加索之所以是伟大的艺术家在于他革命性的绘画风格——解析立体主义，并讲解了创此新风格的原因。因此，A选项最符合文意。
2. C。本题要求选出关于毕加索和布拉克艺术革新的事实。AB选项根据第三段In the past, an artist had made a painting like a window – they painted to make it look like there was depth.可知是错误选项。文中没有提到violin，因此D选项错误。
3. A。第六段第一句提问“But why did Picasso feel such a need to change things?”与本题问题相同，答案由后句“ Well, the world around him was changing.”可得。因为世界在变化，所以艺术也需要改变来反映和表达这些改变。
4. D。最后一段“Picasso could not have painted it without the skills he had learned during the cubist period.”意为：如果没有在解析立体主义时期学到的技术，毕加索是无法完成这幅画的。因此，提到Guernica这幅画就是为了说明，正是毕加索用解析立体主义才让这幅画成为杰作的。
D2 1-4 ABAB
1. A. 根据Well, to an Australian like myself, British English sounds more academic and educated than American English可知选A。
2. B. 根据the two main factors (因素) that affect the way people speak English are geographical (where they are in the world) and social (the way their parents, friends and other people they talk to speak)可知影响口音的主要有地理和社会两个方面的因素，而后面的but there are also lots of different accents within London, which depend on social class.可判断B正确。
3. A. 根据Australian English is strongly influenced by Irish convicts sent by the British to Australia可知选A。
4. B. 根据In the end, the choice is yours - just remember to be consistent可知B正确。
D3 1-4 CDDB
1. C。作者在开篇提到外星人侵略地球，第三段“Yet the truth is that there is a high chance that aliens would not even notice us.”话锋一转，表明这样的场景很可能不是真实的，因为宇宙之大，即使有外星人他们也很可能都不会发现我们，之后开始讲解原因是宇宙之大，并用基本物理来解释外星人不可能发现我们的原因，所以答案为Ｃ。
2. D。由第四段的“But in 1933, Swiss astronomer Fritz Zwicky spotted something entirely different … He realized there must be something else there, something that he could not directly observe, but that had a strong enough gravitational (引力的) pull to hold everything together.”可知D为正确答案。
3. D。由倒数第二段的“It bends the light that passes through it, just like light shining through a swimming pool. The effect is called “gravitational lensing (引力透镜)” and can be used to find out where clouds of dark matter are. Using this technique, scientists are creating maps of the universe’s dark matter.”可知D为正确答案。
4. B。由最后两段可知，科学家们希望将来某天他们能在暗物质地图上标出宇宙八分之一的空间，到目前为止仅仅完成一小部分这方面工作，而且这些地图上还只有目前已发现的暗物质的大致位置，仍缺乏细节，但文中Gary Prezeau并没有表示出任何悲观态度，故Ｂ为正确答案，C、D都不对。A项文中没有提及。
