D1

1. B。本文作者客观分析了独住和与他人同住一套公寓的利与弊，第一段作者总起，第二段作者分析独处的优点，第三段陈述缺点，第四段阐述与人共住一套公寓的缺点，第五段阐述其优点，所以可推知只有B为正确答案。由第一段的“I moved into a house with 13 other people I didn't know when I moved to a new town in Switzerland.”可知D不对。

2. D。由第二段的“If you live alone, you always know who made that mess in the kitchen. You're responsible for your own space - both the tidy bits and the messy bits.”可推知D为正确答案。

3. C。第四段作者列举了五个例子：分别为：1）the cakes your colleague gave you as a thank-you present are mysteriously gone；2）That spaghetti you wanted to take to work the next day for lunch has also disappeared；3）whenever you want a relaxing bath, there's no hot water left …；4）Your home is certainly messier than if you were alone. Lots of people bring lots of stuff；5）someone always seems to have a birthday party when you want to get to bed early.

4. C。由最后一段的“And when you come home after a long day, knowing you haven't been shopping yet, and you find your housemates making pizza with leftover vegetables to eat while you watch a film, that's when it all seems worth it.”可推知C为正确答案。

D2

1. C。作者在文章开篇提到彼得·潘主要是为了导入本篇要讨论的话题，成年人依然喜欢玩具，所以答案为C。

2. B。由第五段“According to Frederique Tutt, an analyst at NPD, the motivation of these grown-ups is to escape the stress of today’s fast-paced world. They are driven toward more immediate pleasures brought by toys than those brought by, say, getting a promotion, which is far less easy to achieve. ”可推知B为正确答案。

3. C。由倒数第三段的“According to Canadian comic book artist Todd McFarlane, collecting toys could simply be a way for people to express their individuality”可推知C为正确答案。kidults 在文章指的是长不大的成年人，由倒数第四段的“the fact that so many adults are pursuing ‘the thrills (刺激) of youth’”可推知A项不对；从倒数第四段可知，社会科学家对kidults持担忧态度，因为他们追求年轻人的刺激好玩，这意味着长大成年不再有吸引力，所以B不对，D项不对，因为文中并没有提到他们不努力工作。

D3

1. B。本文介绍了在土卫二首次发现了之前一直没有发现的成分，那就是氢气。这是我们第一次在非地球的海洋里找到外星生命体食物来源的证据，所以答案为B。

2. C。由第二段和第四段可推知C为正确答案。

3. D。由最后一段可推知D为正确答案。

D4

1. A。由第二三段中“life is not fair”和“our efforts don't always get the results that we expect”可知作者想要表达生活并不公平，我们的努力并不总是会令我们得到期望的结果。因此A是正确答案，B不合文意。C，D前三段未提及。

2. D。由四五段可知作者并未抱怨生活对她的不公，以及对这段失败婚姻的不满，因此A是错误的。由第五段可知B是错误的，作者并未提及和第二任丈夫相识相知的过程。C不合文意。结合最后一段中“When we are faced with life's seeming unfairness, our faith needs to jump in”和“if you remain confident…”可知D是正确答案。

3. C。最后一段中作者建议人们遭遇失败的时候要“Accept that life is neither fair nor straightforward. And knowing that if you remain confident, you can drive your unfair experiences away and use them for your benefit”，由此可知a错误，b 是正确的。D文中没有提及。通过排除可知C是正确答案。

4. B。通读全文可知作者通过自己的遭遇点明生活的确是不公平的，但是我们应该保持坚定的信念和信心，从而摆脱这种不公平，从中获益。因此，作者是想告诉我们如何正确对待生活中的不公平待遇。所以B是正确答案，其他三项均不是作者的主要目的。
