说明文阅读理解的特征
一般说来,英语说明文与其他文体一样,文章所涉及的内容不外乎以下几个方面,即who → what → when → where → how → why。
1. who:问的是这篇文章的主体是谁?(即所要说明和描述的人或事物)
2. what:问的是主体做了什么事情?(即主体表现出的特性、功能和用途)
3. when和where:是在何时何地发生的?(即何时何地所表现出的特性、功能和用途)
4. how:通过什么方式表现出来的?
5. why:这种特性功能用途的原因是什么?

说明文答题技巧
分析2023年各地区说明文类阅读理解,大都考查细节理解题、推理判断题、词义猜测题以及主旨大意题
细节理解题
命题规律:
细节理解题一般根据短文提供的信息和事实进行提问,命题人往往通过对文章细节加以改写来考查考生准确理解细节的能力。细节理解题在高考阅读理解中占有相当大的比例,几乎占据了阅读理解总题量的“半壁江山”。这类题考点可以源自段内的单句信息理解,也可以来自段落内综合信息的理解。考查内容涉及时间、地点、人物、事件、原因、结果、方式以及在议论文中可以涉及例证的细节和定义类的细节。
命题方式 :
1. 特殊疑问句形式。以when,where,what,which,who,how much/many等疑问词开头引出问题。
2. 填空题形式。通常涉及与主题有关的事实或细节。
题型和考查角度:
1. 高频考点:直接信息题;间接信息题。
2. 中频考点:数字计算题;
3. 低频考点:细节排序题;正误判断题。
解题原则 :注意句子的逻辑关系,依附原文,杜绝主观臆断。
解题技巧 :
第一步:审读题干,提取关键信息;
第二步:速读定位原文信息句,将试题信息与原文信息进行语义转换;
第三步:逐一核对选项,仔细辨别,得出答案。
解题原则:对原文中能直接排除的进行筛选,不能直接找到的多处相关信息进行整合转换。
推理判断题
推理判断题是中考阅读理解试题中的重要题型之一, 包括推理和判断两个方面,是考生失分率较高的题型。考查考生透过文章表面文字信息推测文章隐含意思,进行逻辑推理,对文章的细节、作者的态度、意图作出正确推理判断的能力。分析今年高考题可知,推断题呈不断上升的趋势,且由过去简单的对号入座直接答题转向通过语句的同义或反义词及长难句来考查考生对语言的理解能力,难度比之前有所增加。
题型和考查角度:
1. 高频考点:隐含意义、写作意图、观点态度。
2. 低频考点:文章出处、文章结构、目标读者。
错误原因:
1. 主观臆断
2. 缺乏逻辑
3. 过度推理
4. 缺乏常识
隐含推断类题型
锁定关键词:
根据题干关键词infer(推断),suggest(表明,暗示),conclude(得出结论), indicate(暗示,象征), imply(暗示), assume(假定,设想)迅速确定题型
解题指导:
浏览选项,首先排除对原文信息简单重复的错误选项
抓住特定信息进行逆向或正向推理:在原文中确定推理依据的位置或范围后,要善于抓住关键信息去分析判断;
整合全文/段信息进行推断:有时需要在弄懂全文或全段的基础上,整合与题目相关的有效信息去进行综合推断,才能确定最佳选项。无论哪种推断形式必须立足原文,避免主观臆断。
观点态度类题型
锁定关键词:
根据题干中表达情感的形容词、副词、动词或介词短语等,如attitude(态度),outstanding( 优秀的,突出的),disagree(不同意),hopefully(有希望的),against(反对), in favor of(赞成), 迅速确定题型。
解题指导:
认真审题,明确“谁对谁”的态度,明确答题方向
关注段落首尾句,推断文章和段落主题,确定观点
注意作者或文中人物的措辞
分析修饰语和字里行间所隐含的意思,切忌用自己观点代替作者或文中人物的观点;
牢记观点态度的常见词语
写作意图类题型
锁定关键词:
根据题干关键词purpose(目的),intend to(打算),want to tell us ...(想要告诉我们),write this passage to(写这篇文章为了)迅速确定题型。
解题指导:
根据文章或段落主旨推断作者写作意图;
根据文体推断写作意图
说明文:其写作意图依赖于对文章主题句的把握,应找准主题句(to introduce, to explain, to inform, to make comparisons ...)
词义猜测题
命题规律:
词义猜测题是高考阅读理解试题中的必考题型, 可以是对一个单词意义的推断,也可以是对一个短语或句子的推断,既可以考查生词的意义,也可以考查熟词的新意,可以考查替代词的内容。在阅读理解题中,所考查的词或短语大多超出考纲的范围,需要根据语境进行推测其含义。
平时的训练中应当注意生词和短语的积累,还要掌握构词法,和一定的解题技巧。
题型和考查角度:
1. 猜测生词或熟词生义。
2. 猜测短语的意义。
3. 猜测代替词所替代的内容。
4. 猜测句意。
命题方式:
The phrase “...” in the sentence could be replaced by “ ”.
The word “...” in the paragraph refer to “ ”.
What is the meaning of the underlined word in the ... paragraph
Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the phrase “...”
The word “...” most nearly means “ ”.
The underlined sentence in the ... paragraph implies that .
解题技巧 :
1. 定位文中画线处上下文。
2. 理解上下文,查找提示点,根据背景、上下文等线索推测生词词义。
选项特征 :
正确选项特征
将选项代入原文,上下文逻辑通顺。
含义和其字面意思一般没有关系。
干扰项特征
与划线部分词形相似
考查熟词生义时,含有常规词义的往往不正确 3. 选项中含有过多原句中已有的词和短语的选项一般为错误选项。
根据定义推测词义:
有时作者会通过给词汇下定义来帮助读者理解该词的基本含义,如线索词that is, or, namely, in other words, that is to say, to be more exact, to put it another way, which is等。
根据举例推测词义:
有时,划线部分后会根由一些具体的例子,这些例子可以帮助考试理解该词的词义。线索词such as, such ... as, for example, for instance, like , including, especially等。
根据对比关系或转折关系推测词义:
表达对比或转折关系的词需注意but, yet, however, while, unlike, instead, similarly, on the contrary, in contrast to等。
根据同义词或并列结构推测词义:
在同一句、同一段或同一篇文章中,作者为了避免语言的单调和重复,会使用意思相同或相近的词,此时,只要知道其中一个词的意思,就能猜出另一个词的意思。
根据构词法推测词义:
英语中的很多词汇,尤其是不断出现的新词大多是通过构词法生成的,因此,掌握主要的构词法有助于猜测词义。
根据因果关系推测词义:
因果关系时一种常见的提供生词词义信息的逻辑关系。根据线索词as, since, because, for , so, thus, consequently, therefore, hence, due to, result in, result from, as a result, for this reason, accordingly, so ... that, such ... that等可知上下句存在因果,从而依据某一句的含义,来确定另一句的含义。
主旨大意题
命题规律:
主旨大意题即考查细节理解能力, 又考查深层次的推理、概括能力, 难度较大。不仅考查考生略读文章、领会大意的能力,也对考生的归纳、概括能力提出了较高的要求。文章中没有明显的解题依据,需要考生从文章中提炼、抽取一些关键词、主干句进行加工概括,才能归纳出文章的主旨。
题型和考查角度:
1. 主题类:文章大意题和段落大意题(概括文章或段落的主旨大意)
2. 标题类:标题判断题(选择最佳标题)。
要做好主旨大意题,我们首先必须了解其正确选项和干扰选项的特征。
选项特征:
正确选项特征
涵盖性强,覆盖全文或全段。
确定的范围恰当,既不太大,也不太小。
精确性强,不会改变语言表意的程度及色彩
语言精练,若是标题类,则应当醒目且语言具有概括性和针对性。
干扰项特征
过于笼统 范围太大,超出文章内容。
以偏概全 只是文章的某一部分或者某一个细节,或是某一个段落的要点或者部分。
主观臆断 与文章内容无关,只是涉及个别单词或按现实生活生搬硬套。
命题方式:
What is the text mainly about
What is the best title for the text
What can be a suitable title for the text
What’s the first/second/third ... paragraph mainly about
What’s the main idea discussed in the first/second/... paragraph
解题技巧:
说明文:明文的主题句一般在文首, 但有的在文尾, 也有的首尾呼应。
段落大意题
通过结构或暗示概括段落大意
根据逻辑结构概括段落大意:要准确概括段落大意,务必知道该段落的逻辑结构。如该段为总分顺序组织,则主题句在段首;如该段为分总顺序组织,则主题句在段尾;如该段为分总分顺序组织,则主题句在段中;如该段对比各事物,则其异同点即为该段大意。一个主题句常常是一个段落的开头,其后是论证性细节。在说明文、论述文或新闻报道中多采用这种形式
通过暗示揣摩段落大意:有时,作者不直接写出主题句,而是通过情感态度等方法暗示性地体现主题,此时要根据文中所叙述的事实和线索综合判断去揣摩并概括出段落大意。

People are trying to build “green buildings” that are friendly to the environment. They might not seem any different from common buildings. But let’s take a closer look.
Stay cool and warm. It takes a lot of energy to light rooms. It also takes energy to heat and cool buildings. So green buildings are designed to do all these things with much less energy. An energy-smart building starts with thick walls. Special insulation (隔热材料) inside keeps heat inside in winter and keeps heat outside in summer. This saves energy for heating and cooling. Some green buildings don’t need any radiators (散热器) or air conditioning at all!
Save the trees. What a building is made from can also help the planet. To save forests, some green buildings have bamboo floors instead of wood. Bamboo looks like wood, but it’s actually a grass. It grows back 20 times faster than a tree. Another way to build green is to use recycled materials. That saves the cost and reduces pollution of producing something new.
Make better home. City planners like green buildings because they save money and they are healthier for the people who work and live inside. But you don’t need to build a whole new building. Simple changes like shading windows and planting trees can make any home greener—and a better Earth home for us all.
As more people become concerned (担忧的) about climate change, more buildings are going green. Experts are finding new ways to build green buildings. We also need to change our mind. Let’s take action now!
1.How does an energy-smart building save energy for heating and cooling
A.It uses air conditioners. B.It uses smart radiators.
C.It has special thick walls. D.It has fewer room lights.
2.Bamboo is used instead of wood in green buildings because ________
A.it is a recycled material B.it grows back much faster

A.build a whole new green building B.pay attention to climate change
C.make small changes to our home D.use only gas to cook our meals
4.How is the text organized

They’ve been extinct (灭绝) for more than 65 million years. They left no pictures but libraries were filled with books about them. Yet, they live on in the imaginations of people. Mention the word “dinosaur” to anyone and you’re sure to have something to talk about.
We have known about these strange living things for more than 200 years. Their fossil (化石) record was first discovered in 1818. The word “dinosaur” was created in 1842 by a scientist who put two Greek words together.
What we know about dinosaurs comes only through the fossil record they left behind. We can get an idea of how they looked by building their skeletons (骨架) with fossilized bones and teeth. They must have been amazing as they towered high above the other living things of their time. We do know that they lived on land and walked. Some walked on two legs. Others preferred four legs. Some were fast and others were quite slow.
We have a pretty good picture of their size and structure, but not much else is known for certain. For example, what color were they Nobody knows. Did they cry like lions, or were their voices sweet and musical like birds Again, how can we know The fossil record does not speak.
Keep in mind that what we don’t know about dinosaurs is far greater than what we do know about them. As with a lot of researches about that era, scientists often have to read between the lines.

Have you ever wondered what animals are talking about With the development of AI, we may be able to understand their languages!
In Professor Karen Bakker’s new book, The Sounds of Life: How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants, she talks about how AI is helping us to make an animal version(版本).
All around the animal kingdom(王国), there are sounds that we can hardly pick up and decipher(破译). For example, elephants talk with each other using infrasound(次声波)far below our human hearing range. Coral(珊瑚)in the ocean also sends sound waves to attract baby coral to safer areas to grow. This is surprising as coral doesn’t have any ears! Scientists have placed listening equipment into these environments to pick up the sounds humans cannot hear.
After the sounds are recorded, AI can study their meaning. For example, Israeli researchers used AI to translate bats’ 15,000 calls. They found that more than 60 percent were arguments about four things: food, sleep positions(姿势), invasion(侵犯), and unwanted advances(求爱).
This technology can not only understand the animals but communicate back to them. For example, bees use dances to communicate. A research team in Germany, therefore, put the bee language AI system into a robot bee. They asked the robot to create a dance routine(路线)to tell the bees where the nectar(花蜜)was, Vox reported.
15.What does Karen Bakker’s new book mainly talk about
A.Why humans should protect animals.
B.How AI helps humans to understand animals.
C.When humans can get closer to animals.
16.How did elephants talk with each other
A.By using infrasound. B.By sending sound waves. C.By waving their big ears.
17.What does the underlined word “equipment” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese
A.耳机 B.设备 C.障碍
18.What can we infer(推断)from Paragraph 4
A.Scientists have got to know how bats argue with each other.
B.Israeli researchers are the first to use AI to translate animals’ languages.
C.Scientists have been able to translate some animals’ languages with AI technology.
19.How did scientists tell bees where the nectar was
A.They trained other bees to lead them there.
B.They asked a robot bee to teach them a new language.
C.They made a robot bee to tell the bees about the route by dancing.

Feeling sweaty (流汗的) from a summer heat wave Don’t worry. Not all your sweat has to go to waste. Researchers from University of California have developed a new device (装置) that produces energy from the sweat on your fingertips.
The device is called a biofuel cell (生物燃料细胞). From the outside, it looks like a simple piece of film connected to electrodes (电极). So how does the device work When you stick the biofuel cell to your finger, it takes in sweat. The enzymes (酶) on the electrodes then help to produce electricity.
Besides using the sweat, the device also produces small amounts of energy when it is pressed, so daily activities like typing, texting, or playing the piano are all good ways to produce electricity.
Some people may think it queer to choose fingertips as the source of sweat, but in fact, they are the sweatiest part of the body. Each finger produces between 100 and 1,000 times more sweat than most other areas.
The device is the most effective on-body energy producer. Before it is invented, most power producing wearable devices require wearers to perform exercise or depend on other sources, such as sunlight or large changes in temperature. But the new device uses a system to produce electricity from sweat in your fingertips, even if you are sleeping or sitting completely quietly. One of the researchers Lu Yin said, “Unlike other sweat-powered wearables, this one requires no exercise, no physical input from the wearer in order to be useful. This work is a step forward to making wearables more practical and convenient.
It’s also quite comfortable to wear the device. The size of the device is about 1 cm2. “You can comfortably wear it for a long period of time,” said Yin.
However, at the moment, the device can only store up a little bit power. And it would take about three weeks of constant (不断的) wear to power a smart phone, but the researchers hope to increase its power in the future.
根据短文内容,选择正确答案。
20.The biofuel cell can ________.
A.protect fingertips B.cause a heat wave C.make use of sweat D.develop new devices
21.What does the underlined word “queer” mean in Paragraph 3
A.Strange. B.Unsafe. C.Dirty. D.Traditional.
22.Wearing the biofuel cell, who can make the biofuel cell work
① Edward has a good sleep in his bed.
② Vetty sends a text message to her mom.
③ Nick plays basketball with his classmates.
④ Lily dried the sweat on her hands with a fan.
A.②③④ B.①③④ C.①②④ D.①②③
23.What is the advantage of the biofuel cell
A.It can influence the temperature greatly.
B.It can power a smart phone in a day.
C.It makes you comfortable when you are in pain.
D.It works for nearly 24 hours a day when you wear it.
24.What’s the best title for the passage

Whenever we hear the name Leonardo da Vinci, most of us probably think of his famous paintings the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. But do you know that he also did well in many other areas outside of art
Leonardo da Vinci was considered to be one of the most talented and the cleverest people of all time. He left behind many notebooks full of creative ideas and inventions. They were also full of different subjects that he was studying. He spelt words backwards(朝反方向)and revered(使……反转)each letter. So his notes could only be read through the use of a mirror. This “mirror writing” might have helped protect his ideas from getting stolen by others.
In his notebooks, there were designs for flying machines. It wasn’t until about 400 years later that people learned how to use machines to fly. Leonardo da Vinci drew pictures and designs of war machines, musical instruments and many other things as well.

Scientists believe the Earth is 4.6 billion years old. However, the mountains, valleys (山谷), hills, rivers, deserts and forests we see today are much younger than that. For example, Mount Qomolangma is about 60 million years old and the Amazon rainforest is only 10 million years old. The youngest sea in the world is the Baltic Sea, at about 15000 years old.
The Earth is always changing because of volcanoes (火山), earthquakes and of course, wind and rain. Some of these changes are very slow and others are quick. Water and ice can make very great changes to the planet. For example, glaciers rivers of ice can cut through mountains and make lakes and deep valleys. Many volcanoes are under the oceans and sometimes they become new islands. This is happening in the South Pacific, near Tonga.
It’s normal for our planet to change, but at the moment, scientists think it’s changing faster than usual. Some deserts are growing and many forests are getting smaller. The weather is getting wetter in some places and drier in others, and there are more big storms. According to the research, the sea level will continue to rise in the next hundred years. As a result, many cities will possibly be covered by water and much of the most productive farming areas will be lost. Some island countries are likely to disappear on the map of the world.
These changes will bring great harm to the planet. However, they can be beneficial to some people. For example, as the Arctic is getting warmer, some people in Greenland now own businesses and sell vegetables they grow on their land. That wasn’t possible in the far north 50 years ago. Farmers in Greenland like the warm weather and hope it will continue.
1.How does the writer describe the changes of the Earth in Paragraph 2
A.By using sayings. B.By giving examples.
C.By telling stories. D.By listing numbers.
2.From Paragraph 3, we can mainly learn about ________.
A.the age of the Earth B.problems for the planet
C.the life of the farmers D.influences on the mountains
3.The underlined word “beneficial” in Paragraph 4 is the closest in meaning to “________”.
A.harmful B.normal C.helpful D.uncomfortable

Chinese researchers reached the top of Qomolangma on May 4, 2022. They set up the world’s highest automatic (自动的) weather station at an altitude (海拔) of 8,830 meters. This helps them to study the influences of climate change on the environment.
It is the highest automatic weather station in the world now. It has taken the place of the station sitting at an altitude of 8,430 meters on the south side of the mountain, which is the second highest now. This allows Chinese scientists to directly collect data (数据) for the first time from the top of the world’s highest mountain.
Collecting and studying data from Qomolangma is not easy. But the data will give valuable information about the condition of local glaciers (冰川) and mountain snow. It will also help scientists study and understand the global monsoon (季风) system, so experts can make proper decisions about climate change.
Yao Tandong, a famous expert, said Chinese scientists had set up eight weather stations from 5,200 to 8,830 meters above sea level. Half of the stations were set up at an altitude higher than 7,000 meters. “Along with strong government support and hard work by scientists, China has become a global front-runner in fields such as climate change.” Yao said.
14.What is the altitude of the highest automatic weather station
A.5,200 meters. B.7,000 meters.
C.8,430 meters. D.8,830 meters.
15.What does the underlined word “It” refer to (指代) in Paragraph 3

A team of Chinese scientists and climbers reached the top of Qomolangma at about 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 23. It’s the second time since last year for the science expedition (考察) team to reach the top.
The team was made up of 13 Chinese scientists and climbers. They set off at a height of 8,300 metres for the top at about 3 a.m. After more than 8 hours of hard climbing, they arrived at the 8,830-metre weather station.
After fixing steel ropes, changing batteries and putting in wind speed and direction sensors (传感器), they finished improving the world’s highest automated (自动化的) weather station, which was setup by Chinese scientists last year. Besides, they collected ice-snow samples on the top for further research.
The weather station records temperatures, wind speeds and other key data for studying climate change. Climate scientists have found that global warming has had a large influence on the glacier number on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (青藏高原).
Over the last fifty years, the temperature on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has risen about 0.5℃ every ten years. Studying the ecosystem (生态系统) of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will help scientists have a better understanding of the influence of climate change, and help scientists and the government make proper decisions.
Since the mid-20th century, China has sent different research expedition teams to Qomolangma. But because of limited resources and technologies, many key scientific questions are still unanswered, such as whether global warming can melt the ice at the top of Qomolangma, and how ecosystem can change as height increases to extremity.
19.How many times has the Chinese science expedition team reached the top since last year
A.Once. B.Twice. C.Three times. D.Four times.
20.Which paragraph best describes the picture below

People are trying to build “green buildings” that are friendly to the environment. They might not seem any different from common buildings. But let’s take a closer look.
Stay cool and warm. It takes a lot of energy to light rooms. It also takes energy to heat and cool buildings. So green buildings are designed to do all these things with much less energy. An energy-smart building starts with thick walls. Special insulation (隔热材料) inside keeps heat inside in winter and keeps heat outside in summer. This saves energy for heating and cooling. Some green buildings don’t need any radiators (散热器) or air conditioning at all!
Save the trees. What a building is made from can also help the planet. To save forests, some green buildings have bamboo floors instead of wood. Bamboo looks like wood, but it’s actually a grass. It grows back 20 times faster than a tree. Another way to build green is to use recycled materials. That saves the cost and reduces pollution of producing something new.
Make better home. City planners like green buildings because they save money and they are healthier for the people who work and live inside. But you don’t need to build a whole new building. Simple changes like shading windows and planting trees can make any home greener—and a better Earth home for us all.
As more people become concerned (担忧的) about climate change, more buildings are going green. Experts are finding new ways to build green buildings. We also need to change our mind. Let’s take action now!
1.How does an energy-smart building save energy for heating and cooling
A.It uses air conditioners. B.It uses smart radiators.
C.It has special thick walls. D.It has fewer room lights.
2.Bamboo is used instead of wood in green buildings because ________
A.it is a recycled material B.it grows back much faster
C.it can keep the room warm D.it can save a lot of money
3.In Paragraph 4, the writer advises us to ________
A.build a whole new green building B.pay attention to climate change
C.make small changes to our home D.use only gas to cook our meals
4.How is the text organized

Have you ever wondered what animals are talking about With the development of AI, we may be able to understand their languages!
In Professor Karen Bakker’s new book, The Sounds of Life: How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants, she talks about how AI is helping us to make an animal version(版本).
All around the animal kingdom(王国), there are sounds that we can hardly pick up and decipher(破译). For example, elephants talk with each other using infrasound(次声波)far below our human hearing range. Coral(珊瑚)in the ocean also sends sound waves to attract baby coral to safer areas to grow. This is surprising as coral doesn’t have any ears! Scientists have placed listening equipment into these environments to pick up the sounds humans cannot hear.
After the sounds are recorded, AI can study their meaning. For example, Israeli researchers used AI to translate bats’ 15,000 calls. They found that more than 60 percent were arguments about four things: food, sleep positions(姿势), invasion(侵犯), and unwanted advances(求爱).
This technology can not only understand the animals but communicate back to them. For example, bees use dances to communicate. A research team in Germany, therefore, put the bee language AI system into a robot bee. They asked the robot to create a dance routine(路线)to tell the bees where the nectar(花蜜)was, Vox reported.
15.What does Karen Bakker’s new book mainly talk about
A.Why humans should protect animals.
B.How AI helps humans to understand animals.
C.When humans can get closer to animals.
16.How did elephants talk with each other
A.By using infrasound. B.By sending sound waves. C.By waving their big ears.
17.What does the underlined word “equipment” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese
A.耳机 B.设备 C.障碍
18.What can we infer(推断)from Paragraph 4
A.Scientists have got to know how bats argue with each other.
B.Israeli researchers are the first to use AI to translate animals’ languages.
C.Scientists have been able to translate some animals’ languages with AI technology.
19.How did scientists tell bees where the nectar was
A.They trained other bees to lead them there.
B.They asked a robot bee to teach them a new language.
C.They made a robot bee to tell the bees about the route by dancing.

Feeling sweaty (流汗的) from a summer heat wave Don’t worry. Not all your sweat has to go to waste. Researchers from University of California have developed a new device (装置) that produces energy from the sweat on your fingertips.
The device is called a biofuel cell (生物燃料细胞). From the outside, it looks like a simple piece of film connected to electrodes (电极). So how does the device work When you stick the biofuel cell to your finger, it takes in sweat. The enzymes (酶) on the electrodes then help to produce electricity.
Besides using the sweat, the device also produces small amounts of energy when it is pressed, so daily activities like typing, texting, or playing the piano are all good ways to produce electricity.
Some people may think it queer to choose fingertips as the source of sweat, but in fact, they are the sweatiest part of the body. Each finger produces between 100 and 1,000 times more sweat than most other areas.
The device is the most effective on-body energy producer. Before it is invented, most power producing wearable devices require wearers to perform exercise or depend on other sources, such as sunlight or large changes in temperature. But the new device uses a system to produce electricity from sweat in your fingertips, even if you are sleeping or sitting completely quietly. One of the researchers Lu Yin said, “Unlike other sweat-powered wearables, this one requires no exercise, no physical input from the wearer in order to be useful. This work is a step forward to making wearables more practical and convenient.
It’s also quite comfortable to wear the device. The size of the device is about 1 cm2. “You can comfortably wear it for a long period of time,” said Yin.
However, at the moment, the device can only store up a little bit power. And it would take about three weeks of constant (不断的) wear to power a smart phone, but the researchers hope to increase its power in the future.
根据短文内容,选择正确答案。
20.The biofuel cell can ________.
A.protect fingertips B.cause a heat wave C.make use of sweat D.develop new devices
21.What does the underlined word “queer” mean in Paragraph 3
A.Strange. B.Unsafe. C.Dirty. D.Traditional.
22.Wearing the biofuel cell, who can make the biofuel cell work
① Edward has a good sleep in his bed.
② Vetty sends a text message to her mom.
③ Nick plays basketball with his classmates.
④ Lily dried the sweat on her hands with a fan.
A.②③④ B.①③④ C.①②④ D.①②③
23.What is the advantage of the biofuel cell
A.It can influence the temperature greatly.
B.It can power a smart phone in a day.
C.It makes you comfortable when you are in pain.
D.It works for nearly 24 hours a day when you wear it.
24.What’s the best title for the passage
A.The History of the Biofuel Cell B.A Traditional Technology—the Biofuel Cell
C.A New Technology—the Biofuel Cell D.The Inventor of the Biofuel Cell
【答案】20.C 21.A 22.D 23.D 24.C
【导语】本文是说明文,介绍了新科技生物燃料电池。
20.推理判断题。根据第二段“When you stick the biofuel cell to your finger, it takes in sweat.”可知,当你把生物燃料电池粘在手指上时,它会吸收汗液;根据“Besides using the sweat, the device also produces small amounts of energy when it is pressed”可知,除了使用汗液,该设备在按压时也会产生少量能量。由此推知生物燃料电池可以利用汗水,故选C。
21.词义猜测题。根据“choose fingertips as the source of sweat”和“but in fact, they are the sweatiest part of the body.”可知,人们普遍认为指尖的汗水比较少,所以利用指尖的汗水作为来源对人们来说是很奇怪的,故选A。
22.推理判断题。根据第三段“so daily activities like typing, texting, or playing the piano are all good ways to generate electricity”可知,打字、发短信或弹钢琴等日常活动都是发电的好方法;根据“even if you are sleeping or sitting completely quietly.”可知,即使你在睡觉或坐着时完全僵硬,也能通过指尖的汗水产生电力。由此推断,人们日常睡觉(对应①)、发信息(对应②)还有运动(对应③)都会让生物燃料电池运转,故选D。
23.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“You can comfortably wear it for a long period of time”可知,当你戴着它的时候,它几乎一天24小时都在工作。故选D。
24.最佳标题题。根据本文介绍了一种新型的生物燃料电池。所以最好的标题是“一种新技术——生物燃料电池”。故选C。

Whenever we hear the name Leonardo da Vinci, most of us probably think of his famous paintings the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. But do you know that he also did well in many other areas outside of art
Leonardo da Vinci was considered to be one of the most talented and the cleverest people of all time. He left behind many notebooks full of creative ideas and inventions. They were also full of different subjects that he was studying. He spelt words backwards(朝反方向)and revered(使……反转)each letter. So his notes could only be read through the use of a mirror. This “mirror writing” might have helped protect his ideas from getting stolen by others.
In his notebooks, there were designs for flying machines. It wasn’t until about 400 years later that people learned how to use machines to fly. Leonardo da Vinci drew pictures and designs of war machines, musical instruments and many other things as well.
