A(2019•新课标全国卷I,D)
During the rosy years of elementary school(小学), I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. They rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes, breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself.
Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers. The likables’ plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and work. Then there’s the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior.
Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are “most likely to engage(从事)in dangerous and risky behavior.”
In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the most liked and the highest in status based on student surveys(调查研究). “We found that the least well-liked teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us."
Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date-sharing, kindness, openness — carry over to later years and make you better able to relate and connect with others.
In analyzing his and other research,Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion: Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. "Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage, ” he said.

B(2019•新课标全国卷II,D)
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案). “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
"There are no tests," Gordon says. "There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than 'Are you working towards your goal?' Basically, it’s 'I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.' Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and... it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product."
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach." And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
B. Space: The Final Homework Frontier

C(2019•新课标全国卷III,B)
For Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.
"It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源)of inspiration for designers," says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚)shows.
Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学)on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.
"China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion — they are central to its movement. "Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China — some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galiano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hill.
For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. "China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China —its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."
27.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Young Models Selling Dreams to the World
B.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New York
C.Differences Between Eastern and Western Aesthetics
D.Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion Trends
【答案】D

D(2019•北京高考,C)
The problem of robocalls has gotten so bad that many people now refuse to pick up calls from numbers they don't know. By next year,half of the calls we receive will be scams(欺诈).We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools,apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately,it's too little,too late. By the time these “solutions"(解决方案)become widely available,scammers will have moved onto cleverer means. In the near future,it's not just going to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt. Soon you will also question whether the voice you're hearing is actually real.
That's because there are a number of powerful voice manipulation ( 处理 ) and automation technologies that are about to become widely available for anyone to use .At this year's I/O Conference ,a company showed a new voice technology able to produce such a convincing human –sounding voice that it was able to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection.
These developments are likely to make our current problems with robocalls much worse. The reason that robocalls are a headache has less to do with amount than precision A decade of data breaches(数据侵入)of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mother 's name ,and far more. Armed with this knowledge. they're able to carry out individually targeted campaigns to cheat people. This means. for example,that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number and talk to you using a voice that sounds exactly like your bank teller 's,ricking you into "confirming " your address,mother's name,and card number. Scammers follow money,so companies will be the worst hit. A lot of business is still done over the phone,and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships. Voice manipulation technologies may weaken that gradually.
We need to deal with the insecure nature of our telecom networks. Phone carriers and consumers need to work together to find ways of determining and communicating what is real. That might mean either developing a uniform way to mark videos and images, showing when and who they were made by. or abandoning phone calls altogether and moving towards data-based communications—using apps like Face Time or WhatsApp, which can be tied to your identity.
Credibility is hard to earn but easy to lose, and the problem is only going to harder from here on out.
41. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Where the Problem of Robocalls Is Rooted
B. Who Is to Blame for the Problem of Roboealls
C. Why Robocalls Are About to Get More Dangerous
D. How Robocalls Are Affecting the World of Technology
【答案】C.

E(2019•浙江高考题,C)
California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor(因素).
The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.
Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick Mclntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources(资源).
But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, Mclntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.
The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt(融雪).
Since the 1930s, Mclntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.
30. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.California's Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone?
B.Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon
C.Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests?
D.Patrick Mclntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California

A (2020届四川省德阳市高三二诊,D)
Hearing loss is unavoidable, but listening to loud music when you’ re younger can make it worse. To reduce your risk of hearing loss via loud music, learn why and how it can cause hearing loss, and just how loud is too loud.
Hearing loss occurs in four ways: conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, mixed hearing loss and auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder. Noise-induced(噪音诱发的)hearing loss is a type of sensorineural hearing loss.
Sensorineural hearing loss occurs when your inner ear becomes damaged. In the case of noise induced hearing loss, most of the damage affects the cells of tiny sensory hairs in your inner ear.
When those cells get damaged or die, the electrical signal that your auditory nerve sends to your brain changes.
Noise-induced hearing loss can be acute or severe, and it can be temporary or permanent. You might be familiar with acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss, even if you didn’t realize what was happening at the time.
Acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss can occur from attending a loud concert or sporting event, going to a gun range without earmuffs or being near an explosion. It can make noises sound “stuffy” or far away, especially when talking on the phone or in a crowded room. Repeated exposure to those loud situations can eventually lead to permanent hearing loss.
Noise levels from earbuds and headphones can get as loud as 139 decibels, according to the journal Noise &Health, far greater than the recommended range of everyday sound exposure, which is 60 to 85 decibels. And the average level of noise from headphones, with the volume turned all the way up, is 94 to 110 decibels. For context, 60 decibels is about the volume of an average conversation, and 130 decibels is about the noise level of a rock concert. 85 decibels is considered the maxi- mum volume at which you can listen to sound for eight hours without damaging your hearing. So if you were to listen to music from your headphones for eight hours a day, listening at a volume louder than 85 decibels can cause permanent damage to your ears.
Unfortunately, the relationship between decibels and time isn’t linear. For every three decibels, safe exposure time gets cut in half, according to the CDC. At 88 decibels, you can only safely listen for four hours; at 91 decibels, just two hours.
32. What does the underlined word ”it” in Paragraph One refer to?
A. Hearing loss. B. Listening to loud music. C. Risk. D. Loud music.
33. In which of the following situations is acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss more likely to occur?
A. Attending a rock concert. B. Participating in a heated debate.
C. Going to a gun range with earmuffs. D. Watching an explosion at a distance.
34. In terms of safe exposure, how long can you listen at 97 decibels?
A. A quarter. B. Half an hour. C. One hour. D. One and a half hours.
35. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A. Loud Music Damages Hearing B. How to Prevent Hearing Loss
C. How Loud Is Too Loud D. Music and Hearing
【答案】 DABA
【语篇导读】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了听力损失是不可避免的,但年轻时听吵闹的音乐会使情况更糟。要想通过听吵闹音乐来降低听力损失的风险,你需要了解音乐为什么会导致听力损失,以及它是如何造成听力损失的。
【解析】
32.本题为词义猜测题。根据前一句“listening to loud music when you’re younger can make it worse(年轻时听吵闹的音乐会使情况变得更糟)”中的listening to loud music为主语,因此本句应是对其进行进一步的描述,“it”作为不定代词,可指代前文提及的动作或事物,结合本句“To reduce your risk of hearing loss via loud music, learn why and how it can cause hearing loss, and just how loud is too loud.”因此可推知本句中it应指前一句“listening to loud music when you’ re younger can make it worse(年轻时听吵闹的音乐会使情况变得更糟)”中的 loud music。故选D项。
33. 本题为细节理解题。根据文章第六段内容“Acute temporary noise-induced hearing loss can occur from attending a loud concert or sporting event, going to a gun range without earmuffs or being near an explosion.( 急性暂时性噪音性听力损失可以发生在参加吵闹的音乐会或体育赛事、去没有耳罩的射击场或在爆炸附近。)”可知参加吵闹的音乐会出现该情况,选项A “Attending a rock concert.(参加摇滚音乐会。)”为吵闹音乐会。故选A项。
34. 本题为细节理解题。根据文章末尾内容“For every three decibels, safe exposure time gets cut in half, according to the CDC. At 88 decibels, you can only safely listen for four hours; at 91 decibels, just two hours.( 根据美国疾病控制与预防中心的数据,每三分贝,安全暴露时间就会减少一半。在88分贝时,你只能安全地听4个小时;在91分贝时,你只能听两个小时。)”可知,每增加三分贝,安全暴露时间就会减少一半,结合后文提及91分贝时,能听两个小时,因此94分贝时,应减少一半时间,即一个小时;97分贝时,再减少一半时间,即能听半个小时。故选B项。
35. 本题为标题选择题。文章首段提出了本文的论述中心“To reduce your risk of hearing loss via loud music, learn why and how it can cause hearing loss, and just how loud is too loud.( 要想通过大声听音乐来降低听力损失的风险,你需要了解音乐为什么会导致听力损失,以及它是如何造成听力损失的。)”可知,本文主要围绕“吵闹音乐与听力损失”之间进行了阐述,选项A. Loud Music Damages Hearing(吵闹的音乐损害听力) 符合本文主题,可为最佳标题。故选A项。
B (湖南省长郡中学高三第三次适应性考试,D)
Facial recognition technology is already widely used by governments and some advertising companies. The technology uses machine learning tools to search for faces in an attempt to identify people.
In a recent study scientists announced they had developed machine learning tools to track the faces of individual wild chimpanzees (黑猩猩).Dan Schofield said that the system was developed to improve the quality of information collected about chimpanzees in the wild over a long period of time.
"For species like chimpanzees, which have complex social lives and live for many years, getting snapshots of their behavior from short-term field research can only tell us so much," Schofield said.
The researchers wanted to get a more complete understanding of the lives of the chimpanzees by studying them over several generations. But doing this would have required searching through hundreds of hours of video recordings of chimpanzees in the wild.
The researchers recorded the activities of a group of chimpanzees that lived in the West African nation of Guinea. A facial recognition computer model was trained using more than 10 million images of the animals. The model was then used to search, recognize and track individual chimpanzees. The system was able to identify individual chimpanzees correctly about 92 percent of the time. It successfully identified the animals' sex 96 percent of the time.
The study included an experiment with humans to see how they could perform against the machine learning system in making identifications. The human persons were able to correctlyidentify individual chimpanzees about 42 percent of the time. The machine learning tool was much faster at completing the experiment. Human experts took about 55 minutes, while the computer took only seconds.
The researchers say they are permitting other scientists to use the system for similar projects. They hope the method will be used with other species to record animal behavior and monitor different animal populations in the environment.
12. What can we infer from Schofield's words?
A. Researching chimpanzees needs more information.
B. Chimpanzees can live as long as humans.
C. Chimpanzees like to get snapshots too.
D. Short-term field research provides more information.
13. What does the underlined word "this" refer to?
A. Recording the chimpanzees in the wild.
B. Studying chimpanzees over several years.
C. Understanding the lives of the chimpanzees completely.
D. Getting snapshots of chimpanzees' behavior.
14. What did the experiment with humans prove in the study?
A. Humans make more accurate identifications.
B. The machine learning system is more effective.
C. Humans can't identify the animals' sex correctly.
D. Machine learning tools take a little more time in identification.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Facial recognition for animals is becoming popular
B. Facial recognition is helping animals live in the wild
C. Facial recognition plays a role in raising animals
D. Facial recognition is used to identify and follow animals
【答案】ACBD

C (江西省赣州市高三摸底考试,B)
Since it never occurred to anybody at the school to provide the services of an interpreter, I had to sit in the front row so that I could read the teacher’s lips. Classroom discussions were virtually impossible to follow because I couldn’t hear what was being said around the room. In a vain effort to keep up with them, I was always asking whoever happened to be sitting next to me what was being said. Eventually, I got tired of watching everyone shrug their shoulders indifferently and rolling their eyes. I began to pretend that I knew what was going on. Fitting in was so important to me that every time the kids laughed, I laughed along even though I felt muddle-headed most of the time.
Luckily then fate threw me light.
On one sunny afternoon, my teacher, Mrs. Jordan, asked the class a question. I read her lips from my front-row seat and immediately raised my hand. I couldn’t believe it — despite my fears, I felt incredibly confident because — for once — I was sure I had the right answer. But, when she called on me, I was suddenly afraid. Here was an opportunity to impress the powerful teacher and show her I was worthy of her love. I didn’t want to blow it. I took a deep breath and nervously answered her question.
Her explosive response shocked all of us. She enthusiastically stepped her right foot on the floor, pointing directly at me. With sparkling eyes and a wide smile she cried, “THAT’S RIGHT, STEPHEN!”
For the first time in my young life, I felt like an instant star. My heart burst with pride. My confidence soared. It was amazing what a great effect the simple three-word phrase delivered with incredible enthusiasm had on my young life. THAT’S RIGHT, STEPHEN! It got me to think that I would make a place for myself in this world no matter how many obstacles I had to overcome. From that day, my grades and speech improved dramatically and my peers suddenly looked at me with new respect.
4. What does the underlined word “muddle-headed” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Absent-minded. B. Relaxed.
C. Confused. D. Delighted.
5. Why was the author in fear of answering Mrs. Jordan’s question?
A. He lacked confidence and bravery.
B. He wasn’t sure of the right answer.
C. He would be laughed at by his classmates.
D. He was afraid that he would disappoint her.
6. What can be inferred about Mrs. Jordan?
A. She was born with creativity. B. She changed the author’s life.
C. She was strict with her students. D. She was a woman of hot temper.
7. What could be the best title for the text?
A. Three Simple Words B. A Wonderful Teacher
C. My Inspiring Stories D. Disabled But Strong-willed
【答案】CDBA
【语篇导读】 这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己曾因听不见而自卑,后来在回答对Mrs. Jordan的提问后,感到自豪,生活得到改变的故事。
【解析】
4. 本题为词句猜测题。根据第一段“I began to pretend that I knew what was going on.”可知,我开始加装我知道发生了什么。由此可以看出,作者对发生的事情是感到迷惑的,所以通过上下文语境可以判断出,换线词的意思是“感到迷惑的”,的意思。故选C。
5. 本题为推理判断题。根据第四段“Here was an opportunity to impress the powerful teacher and show her I was worthy of her love. I didn’t want to blow it. ”可知,这是个机会,可以让我给这个强大的老师留下印象,告诉她我值得她爱。我不想搞砸。由此判断出所以作者害怕回答Mrs. Jordan的提问时怕答错让她失望。故选D。
6. 本题为推理判断题。由最后一段“From that day, my grades and speech improved dramatically and my peers suddenly looked at me with new respect. ”可知,从那天起,我的成绩和语言能力都有了显著的提高,同学们也突然对我刮目相看。由此可以推断出,Mrs. Jordan改变了作者的生活。故选B。
7. 本题为标题选择题。通读全文尤其是由最后一段“It was amazing what a great effect the simple three-word phrase delivered with incredible enthusiasm had on my young life.”可知,让人吃惊的是,以难以置信的热情传递的简单的三个字,对我的青年时光有如此大的影响。可以推测,这是发生在作者身上的改变,与三个简单的字有关的故事,所以文章的标题可以用“三个简单的字”。故选A。
D (西省重点中学盟校高三下学期第联考,D)
If you are reading this, you were probably born in the 2000s. The oh-ohs. The 21st century. That would make you young, creative, connected, global, and no doubt smart. Maybe good-looking, too. Right? But what do other people think about your generation?
Some adults worry that you’re more interested in the screen in front of you than the world around you. They think of you as the “face-down generation” because you use your phone so much and they wonder how you will deal with school, friends, and family. Are today’s teenagers too busy texting and taking selfies to become successful in real life—or “IRL”, as you would say?
Other adults worry that today’s youth are spoilt and don’t want to face the challenges of adult life. Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by “helicopter parents", who were always there to guide and help their children with a busy schedule filled with homework and after-class activities such as dancing, drawing, or sports. With parents who do everything for them, today’s youth seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s.
With these taken into account, does the face down generation need a warning? Well, probably not. The fact is that many of today’s teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations. They seem to be enthusiastic and willing to be become leaders. More young people than ever volunteer to help their communities. There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai, the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls’ rights to go to school.
So if you’re one of the oh-ohs, there are reasons to be hopeful about the future. Things are looking up for the face-down generation. Chances are that you will do GR8 (great) and LOL (laugh out loud).
12. Which of the following words can not be used to describe the oh-ohs?
A. Creative. B. Caring.
C. Ignorant. D. Intelligent.
13. What does the underlined phrase “helicopter parents” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. parents who are rich and travel by helicopter.
B. parents who always watch over their children.
C. parents who have a very busy schedule.
D. parents who only turn up when necessary.
14. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The writer is a member of the face-down generation.
B. The writer is optimistic about the future of the oh-ohs.
C. The oh-ohs are more good-looking than their parents.
D. The oh-ohs care about nothing other than their phones.
15. What can be a best title for the passage?
A. The “helicopter parents” B. The over-worried parents
C. The spoiled generation D. The face-down generation

E(四川省成都市石室天府中学高三第四次阶段性质量检测,D)
Researchers discovered a hidden continent on Earth, but it's not Atlantis. They found it while reconstructing the evolution of Mediterranean region's complex geology, which rises with mountain ranges and dips with seas from Spain to Iran.
The continent is called Greater Adria. It's the size of Greenland and it broke off from North Africa, only to be buried under Southern Europe about 140 million years ago. And chances are you've been there without even knowing it. “Forget Atlantis,” said Douwe, study author and professor at Utrecht University. “Without realizing it, vast numbers of tourists spend their holiday each year on the lost continent of Greater Adria.” This area is called Adria by geologists, so the researchers for this study refer to the previously undiscovered continent as Greater Adria.
Most of Greater Adria was underwater, covered by shallow seas, coral reefs and sediments (沉淀物). The sediments formed rocks and those rocks became mountain ranges in these areas: the Alps, the Apennines, the Balkans, Greece and Turkey. The researchers found that Greater Adria started to become its own continent about 240 million years ago.
This isn't the first time a lost continent has been found. In January 2017, researchers announced the discovery of a lost continent left over from the supercontinent Gondwana, which began breaking apart 200 million years ago. The leftover piece, which was covered in lava (岩 浆), is now under Mauritius, an island in the Indian Ocean. And in September 2017, a different research team found the lost continent of Zealandia through ocean drilling in the South Pacific. It’s two-thirds of a mile beneath the sea.
Greater Adria isn’t the first lost continent to be found. But if research in past years shows anything, it likely won’t be the last discovery.
12. How did the researchers find Greater Adria?
A. They found it accidentally.
B. They got inspired by the tales of Atlantis.
C. They discovered it after years of seaching.
D. They followed the steps of exploring mountain ranges.
13. What do we know about Greater Adria?
A. It is hidden under the sea level.
B. It is much smaller than Greenland.
C. It has existed for about 240 million years.
D. It has been known to many tourists before.
14. Why are the discoveries mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A. To describe how the researchers explored continents.
B. To show some other lost continents have been found.
C. To prove they are closely related to Greater Adria.
D. To explain the reason why Greater Adria got buried.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Atlantis Discovered Finally
B. Undersea World Explored
C. A Hidden Mountain Undiscovered
D. A Lost Continent Found Under Europe
【答案】ACBD
【语篇导读】 这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是“一个被发现的丢失的大陆”。
【解析】
12. 本题为推理判断题。根据第一段中They found it while reconstructing the evolution of Mediterranean region's complex geology, which rises with mountain ranges and dips with seas from Spain to Iran.“他们是在重建地中海地区复杂地质结构的过程中发现这一现象的。从西班牙到伊朗,地中海地区的地质结构随山脉的起伏而变化,随海洋的起伏而变化。”可知,研究者是偶然发现Greater Adria的。故选A。
13. 本题为细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句The researchers found that Greater Adria started to become its own continent about 240 million years ago.“研究人员发现,大亚得里亚海在大约2.4亿年前开始形成自己的大陆。”可知,Greater Adria已经存在了大约2.4亿年。故选C。
14. 本题为推理判断题。根据第四段第一句This isn't the first time a lost continent has been found.“这不是第一次发现丢失的大陆。”由此推知,在第4段提到这些发现是为了显示其他丢失的大陆已经被发现。故选B。
15. 本题为标题选择题。根据最后一段Greater Adria isn't the first lost continent to be found. But if research in past years shows anything, it likely won't be the last discovery.“Greater Adria并不是第一个被发现的丢失的大陆。但如果过去几年的研究有任何发现的话,这可能不会是最后的发现。”文章讲述的是“一个被发现的丢失的大陆”。故选D。
