D1
1. C。根据第四段中“The city issued a notice on Oct 29 saying that dog owners are banned from walking their pets in urban areas from 7 am to 10 pm.”可知,通知禁止养狗人士在早7点到晚10点间在市区遛狗,故选C。
2. D。根据文中“Everybody's circumstances are different, but the rule is too inflexible," a Wenshan pet owner surnamed Zhang told The Beijing News.”可知,张女士认为这个规定太死板,没有考虑到每个人的具体情况,故选D。
3. D。根据最后一段中“The Independent in London said dog owners in Germany’s capital of Berlin must get a license to walk their pets without a leash. To get the license, dogs need to pass basic training and prove that they are manageable.”可知,在德国首都柏林,养狗人士要想不拴绳遛狗,必须有许可证。为了获得此证,狗狗需要通过基本训练,并证明它们可以受主人控制,故选D。C项是容易错选,并不是主人需要通过考试。
D2
1. B。纵观全文作者先讲了成为记者的种种原因,之后提到了自己成为全职记者的后的种种体验和事件,重点介绍了自己的记者生活,所以选B。
2. B。文中提到“I have lost count of the numbers of emails I have had ignored. 也就是说I have had lots of emails ignored.”自己的邮件无数次被忽略。以及“I have spent hours at meetings listening as hard as I could for a story – only to go home empty-handed.”也提到作者的文章被删改的惨痛经历。可见作者作为记者所遇到的主要挫折就是努力工作却收效甚微。
3. D。文章结尾提到“For me, there is no better career than making a difference – and telling the world about it.”之前也讲述了作者写文章报道养老院管理不善促使管理者改进的事情,可见作者觉得作为记者能够为社会做贡献是让她喜爱这个职业。
4. D。原文提到“Strangely, though, that challenge made me want to keep going. If you do succeed, the rewards of journalism are truly great.”可见作者并不在意职业生涯中遇到的种种挑战和挫折,但这也并不意味着作者喜欢危险刺激的工作。
D3
1. D。根据第三段中“In the study, volunteers were given varying sets of six, 12, or 24 landscape pictures. They were asked to choose one to be printed on a coffee mug. While they chose, a machine recorded their brain activities.”可知,这项研究主要目的是看我们在做选择时大脑的活动,故选D。
2. C。根据第四段中“The study suggests that our brain needs to weigh both reward and workload to make a proper decision.”以及下文提到“That’s because 12 is a good number, not “too small” or “too large” in the choice pool.”可知,研究表明,我们在面对诸多选择做出一个适合的决定时,需要权衡付出和所得之间的关系。相对于6对和24对,12对是相对较好的选择,故选C。
3. C。联系上下文可知,distressing此处表达选择太多时,人们会觉得“费力的、烦恼的”之意,故选C。
4. A。根据倒数第二段中“According to the UK journal Medical News Today, it’s partly because people tend to feel freer and more able to control their lives when there are more options.”可知,虽然选择多了也会令人感到烦恼,但我们还是喜欢有很多选择,因为当有更多的选择时,我们会感觉更自由,更能控制自己的生活,故选A。
Day 4
1. B。根据文章前五段可知,手术之前,McDaniels非常紧张,在洗手间哭了起来。因此答案为B。其他三项均不是McDaniels手术前的心情。
2. A。根据文章第五段,McDaniels期盼这一天已经很久了,而当它真正来临时,她又非常紧张。而这一天指的就是McDaniels接受手术的一天,因此可推测此处“it”指McDaniels接受手术这件事,因此答案为A。其他三项均不符合文意。
3. D。根据文章第六至九段,在McDaniels的照片被发布到社交网站后,许多人的评论恶毒,但同时也有几位牙医愿意帮助她,其中Maryann Udy愿意免费为她做手术,因此可知答案为D。A项与文章意思相反;B、C两项文章未提及。
4. A。文章最后四段写到,手术后McDaniels看着自己以前的相片感叹以前也很好,但是现在的自己更好看,因此可知答案为A,McDaniels对自己更加自信。B项文章是说她以前也喜欢自拍,并非手术后迫不及待自拍;C项与文章意思相反;D项文章未提及。
