When Brody, a 4-year-old Connecticut boy, was asked what wish he wanted to come true, his only dream was that he could be able to play outside.
Brody was born premature (早产) at 27 weeks, which caused him to overheat and burn easily. That means he can't spend any time outside and he'll get burn blisters (水疱) on his face even when he is driven to the hospital. Besides, there are a lot of things he can't do. He has trouble walking and only began talking one year ago. Brody can't eat or drink and has to wear a backpack 24/7 that contains a pump that feeds him. “I can't even count the number of surgeries he's had since he was born,” Brody's mother said. “He's spent probably half his life at the hospital.”
When Make-A-Wish Connecticut, an organization that creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, heard about Brody's request to play outside, they immediately jumped into action. “It's the most simple, most sweet wish, just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.” said Debbie Artinian, the manager of Make-A-Wish Connecticut.
Artinian and her team determined that a temperature-controlled tent outside Brody's home where he could play and not be in the sun would be the best option. But they had to find a tent that could stand weather conditions like wind and snow and had the right material to block all UV rays. Luckily, Artinian found a company based in the United Kingdom that could design and make the tent. Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody loves the beach, even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack. So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids’ pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like he's out at the beach.
Brody got his first look at the tent earlier this summer. “When he walked out of the door and I saw his face, it was just everything,” said Artinian. “Now when Brody says ‘Can I go out and play ’, his mom can say, “Yes.” “Brody is now enjoying spending nearly all his time "outside” in the tent.
It's hard to make life completely normal for Brody, but Artinian and her team tried to make it as normal as they could.
24. What can we learn about Brody
A. He can't be exposed to sunlight. B. He can't stand on his feet.
C. He can't be given surgeries any more. D. He can't communicate with others.
25. Make-A-Wish Connecticut thought Brody's dream was __________
A. inspiring and heart-warming B. simple but incredible
C. difficult and unachievable D. challenging but worthwhile
26. Why does the author mention the beach in Paragraph 4
A. To show that Brody is a boy who loves nature.
B. To prove that the design company was responsible.
C. To suggest that Artinian and her team were considerate.
D. To emphasize that the skill in building the tent was the latest.
27. What does the story mainly tell us
A. One good turn deserves another. B. A helping hand makes a difference.
C. All things are difficult before they are easy. D. Tough life experience may result in success.
C
The digital revolution has arrived. As automation becomes ever more common, even those professions once thought to be insulated from technological disruption（扰乱）face an uncertain future. Given that state of uncertainty, Northeastern University President Joseph Aoun argues that college graduates can no longer be confident that the job they hold will be financially sustainable for the long term. Automation, long a threat to low-skilled jobs, is now cost-effective in all repetitive work, including high-skilled jobs in health care, law, and research. Thus, for many the prospect of being replaced by a robot is more pressing.
To address this, it falls to higher education to prepare graduates for changes that are sweeping through the world of work. But how can institutions prepare the next generation, when it's not clear what professions will exist to employ them
Aoun argues that universities must reinvent themselves to address this age of disruption and to provide their students with the educational foundation that ensures their employability in the coming decades. To do so, he calls for higher education to focus on those features that separate humans from machines. He named this new framework "Humanics".
Aoun details a two-tiered（两层的）structure for Humanics and explains how these tiers work together to develop creativity in students. The first tier consists of 21st-century literacies that he argues must be central to any forward-thinking educational program. In addition to reading, writing, and arithmetic, Aoun argues that all students must be competent in data interpretation and analysis, technical functions like engineering, and human-centric studies such as design thinking and communication.
This first tier of literacies forms the basis for Aoun's second tier of cognitive（认知的） capacities. Systems thinking, critical thinking, and cultural awareness constitute the mind-sets that Aoun argues are critical to distinguishing human employees from machines. A student with these mind-sets can solve problems creatively while making logical judgments.
Having defined what a robot-proof education must involve, Aoun looks into how that education should be offered and what colleges and universities must do to meet the needs of a modern student body. He calls for higher education to fully accept experiential, lifelong learning. He argues that it is only through rich experiences that students can apply their 21st-century literacies to complex problems, which will eventually shape their mind-sets. This type of learning must be lifelong because the rapid rate of change that accompanies automation will require that students consistently refresh their skill sets
Aoun acknowledges that education will never be a cure-all for society's ills. A more practical approach might be to see Humanics not as a new medicine but rather as a supplement to our current educational system.
In an automated world, to prepare for the economic disruption such automation may cause, higher education must create a generation of graduates that is liberated to think creatively while continuing to function in more traditional capacities. Perhaps that will ensure workers and the universities that educate them are indeed robot proof.
28. What does the underlined word "insulated" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Generated B. Sheltered C. Prohibited. D. Separated.
29. What can we learn about automation from the first two paragraphs
A. It has posed a threat to employment.
B. It has made high-skilled jobs demanding.
C. It helps to fuel the process of digitalization.
D. It promotes the development of new professions.
30. According to Joseph Aoun, institutions should________.
A. set the trend for automation
B. provide a robot-proof education
C. redefine the framework of Humanics
D. value cognitive capacities over literacies
31. What does the passage mainly discuss
A. Where is automation leading us
B. What does Humanics mean to universities
C. Why is it critical to acquire higher education
D. How can we get ready for an uncertain future
D
Elephants eat plants. That's common knowledge to biologists and animal-loving, schoolchildren alike. Yet figuring out exactly what kind of plants they eat is more complicated.
A new study from a global team that included Brown University conservation biologists used innovative methods to efficiently and precisely analyze the dietary habits of elephants in Kenya. Their findings on the habits of individual elephants help answer important questions about group food searching behaviors, and aid biologists in understanding the conservation approaches that best keep elephants not only sated(饱的) but satisfied.
“When I talk to non-ecologists, they are surprised to learn that we have never really had a clear picture of what all of these large animals actually eat in nature,”Kartzinel, an expert botanist who has conducted field research in Kenya, said. “The reason is that these animals are difficult and dangerous to observe from up-close, they move long distances, they feed at night and in thick bush and a lot of the plants they feed on are quite small.”
Then the team compared the diets of individual elephants through time. In their analysis, they showed that dietary differences among individuals were often far greater than what had been previously assumed, even among family members that ate together on a given day.
This study helps address a classic paradox(悖论) in wildlife ecology. Kartzinel said: “How do social bonds hold family groups together in a world of limited resources ” In other words, given that elephants all seemingly eat the same plants, it's not obvious why competition for food doesn't push them apart and force them to search for food independently.
“The simple answer is that elephants vary their diets based not only on what's available but also their preferences and physiological needs,” said Kartzinel. These findings help inform theories of why a group of elephants may search for food together: The individual elephants don't always eat exactly the same plants at the same time, so there will usually be enough plants to go around.
These findings may offer valuable insights for conservation biologists. To protect elephants and create environments in which they can successfully grow their populations, they need a variety of plants to eat.
32. What did the new study focus on
A. The results of conservation approaches. B. The eating habits of elephants.
C. Ways to protect elephants from starving. D. Elephants’ social behavior and needs.
33. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Elephants are hard to monitor. B. Elephants only live in thick bush.
C. Elephants are kind and friendly animals. D. Elephants seldom eat with humans around.
34. What message can conservation biologists get from the study
A. It is necessary for elephants to live together.
B. It is possible to observe elephants up-close.
C. It is social bonds that hold elephants together.
D. It is important to protect the variety of plants.
35. Which word can be used to describe the study
A. Inaccurate. B. Shocking. C. Beneficial. D. Subjective.

“Father of hybrid rice” Yuan Longping passed away at 13: 07 pm in Changsha of Hunan province, __36_.
___37__. The globally renown agronomist（农学家） known for developing the first hybrid rice strains, was born on the ninth day of the seventh month in 1930, according to the lunar calendar.
__38__--feeding nearly one-fifth of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's total land. In 1949, Yuan applied for Southwest Agricultural College and began his special connection with rice--a staple food of the Chinese people that would become the focus of his lifelong research career.
A discovery of a peculiar wild rice species by Yuan in the southern island of Hainan in 1970 became the prelude（序曲） of China’s decades of hybrid rice research. Three years later, he cultivated the world’s first high- yielding hybrid rice train with three lines, namely, the male sterile, maintainer and restorer.
39 Hybrid rice recorded an annual yield about 20 percent higher than that of conventional rice strains--meaning it could feed an extra 70 million people a year.
40 In September 2017, a strain of low- cadmium indica（籼稻；籼型） rice developed by Yuan’s team and the Hunan provincial academy of agricultural sciences was able to reduce the average amount of cadmium（镉） in rice by more than 90 percent in areas suffering from heavy metal pollution.
A. Yuan was undergoing treatment at a hospital, Yuan’s son Yuan Ding’an,and Yuan’s secretary Yang Yaosong confirmed.
B. it is said byYuan’s son Yuan Ding’an.
C. He has helped China work a great wonder.
D. Now the focus of Yuan’s hybrid rice project has changed from increasing output to green and sustainable development.
E. Yuan’s hybrid rice project aimed to create the best of it.
F. Hybrid rice has since been grown across the Country and farmers reaped incredible output after switching to Yuan's hybrid varieties.
G. Xinhua reported on Saturday.

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了不能晒太阳的Brody，在Make-A-Wish Connecticut
组织的帮助下，实现了到室外去玩的梦想。
24.推理判断题。由第二段的一、二两句话可知，Brody是27周就产下的早产儿，因此他很容易过热，也很容易灼伤。那意味着他任何时候都不能在室外，而且，甚至当他被开车送往医院时，他都会脸上起水泡。由此可见，由于早产，这个小孩不能被暴露于阳光之下。故选A项。
25.推理判断题。由第三段的“It's the most simple, most sweet wish, just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.”可知，Make-A-Wish Connecticut认为他的到室外玩这一梦想很简单，也很甜美的，然而（对于Brody）而言又是最难实现的。结合本段第一句话，我们知道这个组织主要是帮助生病严重的孩子实现梦想，所以他们会认为帮助实现这个孩子的梦想是值得的，但是有时富有挑战的，不是那么容易的，故选D项。
26.推理判断题。由第四段“Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody loves the beach, even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack. So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids’ pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like he's out at the beach.”可知，他们得知Brody喜欢沙滩，虽然他去不了，但他们还是贴心地为Brody营造了沙滩场景，让他身临其境。由此可以判断Artinian以及她的团队成员真的很善解人意。故选C项。
27.主旨大意题。结合全文，尤其是最后一段，可知，虽然很难让Brody的生活完全正常，但是Artinian 和她的团队尽他们所能，让Brody的生活正常。由此我们可以判断，在他们的帮助下，Brody的生活有了很大的变化。故选B项。
28. B 29. A 30. B 31. D
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述在数字化革命到来后自动化已经威胁人们的职业，Joseph Aoun就这现象提出未来人工智能时代的教育。
28.词义猜测题。由文章第一段“The digital revolution has arrived. As automation becomes ever more common, even those professions once thought to be insulated from technological disruption face an uncertain future.”（数字化革命已经到来。随着自动化变得越来越常见，甚至那些曾经被认为将免于科技干扰的职业也将面临一个不确定的将来。）由本句中once thought和后面face an uncertain future推断前后句意应该发生转折，前面应该表示看好这些职业，原本认为这些职业不受科技影响。而A.Generated生产； B.Sheltered庇护；C. Prohibited禁止； D.Separated分离。故选B项。
29.细节理解题。由第一段中“Automation, long a threat to low-skilled jobs, is now cost-effective in all repetitive work, including high-skilled jobs in health care, law, and research. Thus, for many the prospect of being replaced by a robot is more pressing.”（自动化一直以来就是对低技术工种的威胁，现在也在具有重复性的工种中也显得更划算，其中包括在医疗，法律和研究这是高技能的工作。因此，对于很多工种，被替代的可能性不容忽视。）可知，自动化已经威胁到人们的工作了。故选A项。
30.细节理解题。由文中“Having defined what a robot-proof education must involve, Aoun looks into how that education should be offered and what colleges and universities must do to meet the needs of a modern student body. ”（在定义未来人工智能时代的教育后，Aoun正在研究教育应该怎样提供以及学院和大学应该做什么来满足当代学生的需求。）以及文章最后一段“Perhaps that will ensure workers and the universities that educate them are indeed robot proof.”（可能那将确保工人，而且提供他们教育的大学是真正的未来人工智能时代的教育），可知，Aoun希望学院能提供robot-proof education。故选B项。
31.主旨大意题。由文章第二段“ how can institutions prepare the next generation, when it's not clear what professions will exist to employ them ”（当还不清楚什么职业将会存在来雇佣他们，学院们怎么让下一代做好准备？）以后后文Aoun提出的robot-proof education可知，文章主要就我们应该怎么为未来的工作做好准备提出了观点。故选D项。
32-35 BADC
32. B 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A new study from a global team that included Brown University conservation biologists used innovative methods to efficiently and precisely analyze the dietary habits of elephants in Kenya.”可知,
研究使用创新的方法去分析大象的饮食习惯。
33. A 细节理解题。根据第三段末句“The reason is that these animals are difficult and dangerous to observe from up close, they move long distances, they feed at night and in thick bush and a lot of the plants they feed on are quite small.”可知，监测大象的行为生活等是存在困难的。
34. D 推理判断题。根据文章最后的两段内容可知，同一象群中的大象吃不同的植物，而且大象在不同的时期也吃不同的食物，因此保护生物学家从中得到的一个信息就是“保护植物的多样性是重要的”。
35. C 推理判断题。根据第二段及最后一段内容可知，这项研究结果是有价值的，能够帮助生态学家更好地对大象进行保护。

When Brody, a 4-year-old Connecticut boy, was asked what wish he wanted to come true, his only dream was that he could be able to play outside.
Brody was born premature (早产) at 27 weeks, which caused him to overheat and burn easily. That means he can't spend any time outside and he'll get burn blisters (水疱) on his face even when he is driven to the hospital. Besides, there are a lot of things he can't do. He has trouble walking and only began talking one year ago. Brody can't eat or drink and has to wear a backpack 24/7 that contains a pump that feeds him. “I can't even count the number of surgeries he's had since he was born,” Brody's mother said. “He's spent probably half his life at the hospital.”
When Make-A-Wish Connecticut, an organization that creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, heard about Brody's request to play outside, they immediately jumped into action. “It's the most simple, most sweet wish, just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.” said Debbie Artinian, the manager of Make-A-Wish Connecticut.
Artinian and her team determined that a temperature-controlled tent outside Brody's home where he could play and not be in the sun would be the best option. But they had to find a tent that could stand weather conditions like wind and snow and had the right material to block all UV rays. Luckily, Artinian found a company based in the United Kingdom that could design and make the tent. Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody loves the beach, even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack. So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids’ pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like he's out at the beach.
Brody got his first look at the tent earlier this summer. “When he walked out of the door and I saw his face, it was just everything,” said Artinian. “Now when Brody says ‘Can I go out and play ’, his mom can say, “Yes.” “Brody is now enjoying spending nearly all his time "outside” in the tent.
It's hard to make life completely normal for Brody, but Artinian and her team tried to make it as normal as they could.
24. What can we learn about Brody
A. He can't be exposed to sunlight. B. He can't stand on his feet.
C. He can't be given surgeries any more. D. He can't communicate with others.
25. Make-A-Wish Connecticut thought Brody's dream was __________
A. inspiring and heart-warming B. simple but incredible
C. difficult and unachievable D. challenging but worthwhile
26. Why does the author mention the beach in Paragraph 4
A. To show that Brody is a boy who loves nature.
B. To prove that the design company was responsible.
C. To suggest that Artinian and her team were considerate.
D. To emphasize that the skill in building the tent was the latest.
27. What does the story mainly tell us
A. One good turn deserves another. B. A helping hand makes a difference.
C. All things are difficult before they are easy. D. Tough life experience may result in success.
C
The digital revolution has arrived. As automation becomes ever more common, even those professions once thought to be insulated from technological disruption（扰乱）face an uncertain future. Given that state of uncertainty, Northeastern University President Joseph Aoun argues that college graduates can no longer be confident that the job they hold will be financially sustainable for the long term. Automation, long a threat to low-skilled jobs, is now cost-effective in all repetitive work, including high-skilled jobs in health care, law, and research. Thus, for many the prospect of being replaced by a robot is more pressing.
To address this, it falls to higher education to prepare graduates for changes that are sweeping through the world of work. But how can institutions prepare the next generation, when it's not clear what professions will exist to employ them
Aoun argues that universities must reinvent themselves to address this age of disruption and to provide their students with the educational foundation that ensures their employability in the coming decades. To do so, he calls for higher education to focus on those features that separate humans from machines. He named this new framework "Humanics".
Aoun details a two-tiered（两层的）structure for Humanics and explains how these tiers work together to develop creativity in students. The first tier consists of 21st-century literacies that he argues must be central to any forward-thinking educational program. In addition to reading, writing, and arithmetic, Aoun argues that all students must be competent in data interpretation and analysis, technical functions like engineering, and human-centric studies such as design thinking and communication.
This first tier of literacies forms the basis for Aoun's second tier of cognitive（认知的） capacities. Systems thinking, critical thinking, and cultural awareness constitute the mind-sets that Aoun argues are critical to distinguishing human employees from machines. A student with these mind-sets can solve problems creatively while making logical judgments.
Having defined what a robot-proof education must involve, Aoun looks into how that education should be offered and what colleges and universities must do to meet the needs of a modern student body. He calls for higher education to fully accept experiential, lifelong learning. He argues that it is only through rich experiences that students can apply their 21st-century literacies to complex problems, which will eventually shape their mind-sets. This type of learning must be lifelong because the rapid rate of change that accompanies automation will require that students consistently refresh their skill sets
Aoun acknowledges that education will never be a cure-all for society's ills. A more practical approach might be to see Humanics not as a new medicine but rather as a supplement to our current educational system.
In an automated world, to prepare for the economic disruption such automation may cause, higher education must create a generation of graduates that is liberated to think creatively while continuing to function in more traditional capacities. Perhaps that will ensure workers and the universities that educate them are indeed robot proof.
28. What does the underlined word "insulated" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Generated B. Sheltered C. Prohibited. D. Separated.
29. What can we learn about automation from the first two paragraphs
A. It has posed a threat to employment.
B. It has made high-skilled jobs demanding.
C. It helps to fuel the process of digitalization.
D. It promotes the development of new professions.
30. According to Joseph Aoun, institutions should________.
A. set the trend for automation
B. provide a robot-proof education
C. redefine the framework of Humanics
D. value cognitive capacities over literacies
31. What does the passage mainly discuss
A. Where is automation leading us
B. What does Humanics mean to universities
C. Why is it critical to acquire higher education
D. How can we get ready for an uncertain future
D
Elephants eat plants. That's common knowledge to biologists and animal-loving, schoolchildren alike. Yet figuring out exactly what kind of plants they eat is more complicated.
A new study from a global team that included Brown University conservation biologists used innovative methods to efficiently and precisely analyze the dietary habits of elephants in Kenya. Their findings on the habits of individual elephants help answer important questions about group food searching behaviors, and aid biologists in understanding the conservation approaches that best keep elephants not only sated(饱的) but satisfied.
“When I talk to non-ecologists, they are surprised to learn that we have never really had a clear picture of what all of these large animals actually eat in nature,”Kartzinel, an expert botanist who has conducted field research in Kenya, said. “The reason is that these animals are difficult and dangerous to observe from up-close, they move long distances, they feed at night and in thick bush and a lot of the plants they feed on are quite small.”
Then the team compared the diets of individual elephants through time. In their analysis, they showed that dietary differences among individuals were often far greater than what had been previously assumed, even among family members that ate together on a given day.
This study helps address a classic paradox(悖论) in wildlife ecology. Kartzinel said: “How do social bonds hold family groups together in a world of limited resources ” In other words, given that elephants all seemingly eat the same plants, it's not obvious why competition for food doesn't push them apart and force them to search for food independently.
“The simple answer is that elephants vary their diets based not only on what's available but also their preferences and physiological needs,” said Kartzinel. These findings help inform theories of why a group of elephants may search for food together: The individual elephants don't always eat exactly the same plants at the same time, so there will usually be enough plants to go around.
These findings may offer valuable insights for conservation biologists. To protect elephants and create environments in which they can successfully grow their populations, they need a variety of plants to eat.
32. What did the new study focus on
A. The results of conservation approaches. B. The eating habits of elephants.
C. Ways to protect elephants from starving. D. Elephants’ social behavior and needs.
33. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Elephants are hard to monitor. B. Elephants only live in thick bush.
C. Elephants are kind and friendly animals. D. Elephants seldom eat with humans around.
34. What message can conservation biologists get from the study
A. It is necessary for elephants to live together.
B. It is possible to observe elephants up-close.
C. It is social bonds that hold elephants together.
D. It is important to protect the variety of plants.
35. Which word can be used to describe the study
A. Inaccurate. B. Shocking. C. Beneficial. D. Subjective.

“Father of hybrid rice” Yuan Longping passed away at 13: 07 pm in Changsha of Hunan province, __36_.
___37__. The globally renown agronomist（农学家） known for developing the first hybrid rice strains, was born on the ninth day of the seventh month in 1930, according to the lunar calendar.
__38__--feeding nearly one-fifth of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's total land. In 1949, Yuan applied for Southwest Agricultural College and began his special connection with rice--a staple food of the Chinese people that would become the focus of his lifelong research career.
A discovery of a peculiar wild rice species by Yuan in the southern island of Hainan in 1970 became the prelude（序曲） of China’s decades of hybrid rice research. Three years later, he cultivated the world’s first high- yielding hybrid rice train with three lines, namely, the male sterile, maintainer and restorer.
39 Hybrid rice recorded an annual yield about 20 percent higher than that of conventional rice strains--meaning it could feed an extra 70 million people a year.
40 In September 2017, a strain of low- cadmium indica（籼稻；籼型） rice developed by Yuan’s team and the Hunan provincial academy of agricultural sciences was able to reduce the average amount of cadmium（镉） in rice by more than 90 percent in areas suffering from heavy metal pollution.
A. Yuan was undergoing treatment at a hospital, Yuan’s son Yuan Ding’an,and Yuan’s secretary Yang Yaosong confirmed.
B. it is said byYuan’s son Yuan Ding’an.
C. He has helped China work a great wonder.
D. Now the focus of Yuan’s hybrid rice project has changed from increasing output to green and sustainable development.
E. Yuan’s hybrid rice project aimed to create the best of it.
F. Hybrid rice has since been grown across the Country and farmers reaped incredible output after switching to Yuan's hybrid varieties.
G. Xinhua reported on Saturday.

21．C 22．A 23．B
【导语】这是一篇应用文。Mirthy是最受欢迎的在线活动网站之一，已经受到45000多人的喜爱和信任。文章对这个网站进行了推广和宣传。
21．细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“For example, according to our event calendar, this week you can attend gardening classes and singing lessons. (例如，根据我们的活动日历，本周你可以参加园艺课和歌唱课。)”可知，本周人们可以在Mirthy学习歌曲。故选C。
22．细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Sign up via the online registration form at Mirthy.com. (通过Mirthy.com的在线注册表注册。)”可知，人们可以在线报名参加Mirthy的活动，所以选项A正确。故选A。
23．推理判断题。根据标题“Explore your world — Mirthy (探索你的世界——Mirthy)”和第一段第一句“Mirthy is one of the most popular websites for online events and already loved and trusted by more than 45,000 people. (Mirthy是最受欢迎的在线活动网站之一，已经受到45000多人的喜爱和信任。)”可知，这篇文章的目的是推荐一个网站。故选B。

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了不能晒太阳的Brody，在Make-A-Wish Connecticut
组织的帮助下，实现了到室外去玩的梦想。
24.推理判断题。由第二段的一、二两句话可知，Brody是27周就产下的早产儿，因此他很容易过热，也很容易灼伤。那意味着他任何时候都不能在室外，而且，甚至当他被开车送往医院时，他都会脸上起水泡。由此可见，由于早产，这个小孩不能被暴露于阳光之下。故选A项。
25.推理判断题。由第三段的“It's the most simple, most sweet wish, just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.”可知，Make-A-Wish Connecticut认为他的到室外玩这一梦想很简单，也很甜美的，然而（对于Brody）而言又是最难实现的。结合本段第一句话，我们知道这个组织主要是帮助生病严重的孩子实现梦想，所以他们会认为帮助实现这个孩子的梦想是值得的，但是有时富有挑战的，不是那么容易的，故选D项。
26.推理判断题。由第四段“Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody loves the beach, even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack. So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids’ pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like he's out at the beach.”可知，他们得知Brody喜欢沙滩，虽然他去不了，但他们还是贴心地为Brody营造了沙滩场景，让他身临其境。由此可以判断Artinian以及她的团队成员真的很善解人意。故选C项。
27.主旨大意题。结合全文，尤其是最后一段，可知，虽然很难让Brody的生活完全正常，但是Artinian 和她的团队尽他们所能，让Brody的生活正常。由此我们可以判断，在他们的帮助下，Brody的生活有了很大的变化。故选B项。
28. B 29. A 30. B 31. D
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述在数字化革命到来后自动化已经威胁人们的职业，Joseph Aoun就这现象提出未来人工智能时代的教育。
28.词义猜测题。由文章第一段“The digital revolution has arrived. As automation becomes ever more common, even those professions once thought to be insulated from technological disruption face an uncertain future.”（数字化革命已经到来。随着自动化变得越来越常见，甚至那些曾经被认为将免于科技干扰的职业也将面临一个不确定的将来。）由本句中once thought和后面face an uncertain future推断前后句意应该发生转折，前面应该表示看好这些职业，原本认为这些职业不受科技影响。而A.Generated生产； B.Sheltered庇护；C. Prohibited禁止； D.Separated分离。故选B项。
29.细节理解题。由第一段中“Automation, long a threat to low-skilled jobs, is now cost-effective in all repetitive work, including high-skilled jobs in health care, law, and research. Thus, for many the prospect of being replaced by a robot is more pressing.”（自动化一直以来就是对低技术工种的威胁，现在也在具有重复性的工种中也显得更划算，其中包括在医疗，法律和研究这是高技能的工作。因此，对于很多工种，被替代的可能性不容忽视。）可知，自动化已经威胁到人们的工作了。故选A项。
30.细节理解题。由文中“Having defined what a robot-proof education must involve, Aoun looks into how that education should be offered and what colleges and universities must do to meet the needs of a modern student body. ”（在定义未来人工智能时代的教育后，Aoun正在研究教育应该怎样提供以及学院和大学应该做什么来满足当代学生的需求。）以及文章最后一段“Perhaps that will ensure workers and the universities that educate them are indeed robot proof.”（可能那将确保工人，而且提供他们教育的大学是真正的未来人工智能时代的教育），可知，Aoun希望学院能提供robot-proof education。故选B项。
31.主旨大意题。由文章第二段“ how can institutions prepare the next generation, when it's not clear what professions will exist to employ them ”（当还不清楚什么职业将会存在来雇佣他们，学院们怎么让下一代做好准备？）以后后文Aoun提出的robot-proof education可知，文章主要就我们应该怎么为未来的工作做好准备提出了观点。故选D项。
32-35 BADC
32. B 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A new study from a global team that included Brown University conservation biologists used innovative methods to efficiently and precisely analyze the dietary habits of elephants in Kenya.”可知,
研究使用创新的方法去分析大象的饮食习惯。
33. A 细节理解题。根据第三段末句“The reason is that these animals are difficult and dangerous to observe from up close, they move long distances, they feed at night and in thick bush and a lot of the plants they feed on are quite small.”可知，监测大象的行为生活等是存在困难的。
34. D 推理判断题。根据文章最后的两段内容可知，同一象群中的大象吃不同的植物，而且大象在不同的时期也吃不同的食物，因此保护生物学家从中得到的一个信息就是“保护植物的多样性是重要的”。
35. C 推理判断题。根据第二段及最后一段内容可知，这项研究结果是有价值的，能够帮助生态学家更好地对大象进行保护。
