【题型应对策略】
一、选材特点、文体特征和命题特点
新闻报道的第一句往往为全文的中心句(tpicsentence)，因此在这个句子中主要讲清what(事件)，when(时间)，where(地点)和wh(人物)，而在下文则要补充事件的过程和细节，往往包括why(目的或原因)和hw(具体过程)等。新闻报道的一些常用语包括Itisreprtedthat...，Asisreprted...，Accrdingtthereprt...，Itisestimatedthat...等。新闻报道亦为记叙文，时态一般要用过去时；主句、从句结构清晰，语言客观平实，往往没有过分花哨的词汇和过于复杂的句型。主要具有以下特点：
二、新闻报道应对策略
新闻报道主要是提供事实信息，一般是简单叙述事件发生的五要素，事件经过和各方反应，很少去探究事件背后深层次的原因。新闻报道的体裁主要有消息、通讯，通常采用记叙的方式来讲清事实(即时间、地点、人物、事件、原因)，强调用事实说话，注重准确客观。因此，做题时要关注新闻报道的结构和细节。具体答题策略如下：

1.（2022全国甲卷B篇）
Gffin’s cckats, a kind f small parrt native t Australasia, have been shwn t have similar shape-recgnitin abilities t a human tw-year-ld. Thugh nt knwn t use tls in the wild, the birds have prved skilful at tl use while kept in the cage. In a recent experiment, cckats were presented with a bx with a nut inside it. The clear frnt f the bx had a “keyhle” in a gemetric shape, and the birds were given five differently shaped “keys” t chse frm. Inserting the crrect “key” wuld let ut the nut.
In humans, babies can put a rund shape in a rund hle frm arund ne year f age, but it will be anther year befre they are able t d the same with less symmetrical (对称的) shapes. This ability t recgnize that a shape will need t be turned in a specific directin befre it will fit is called an “allcentric frame f reference”. In the experiment, Gffin’s cckats were able t select the right tl fr the jb, in mst cases, by visual recgnitin alne. Where trial-and-errr was used, the cckats did better than mnkeys in similar tests. This indicates that Gffin’s cckats d indeed pssess an allcentric frame f reference when mving bjects in space, similar t tw-year-ld babies.
The next step, accrding t the researchers, is t try and wrk ut whether the cckats rely entirely n visual clues (线索), r als use a sense f tuch in making their shape selectins.
24. Hw did the cckats get the nut frm the bx in the experiment?
A. By fllwing instructins.B. By using a tl.
C. By turning the bx arund.D. By remving the lid.
25. Which task can human ne-year-lds mst likely cmplete accrding t the text?
A. Using a key t unlck a dr.B. Telling parrts frm ther birds.
C. Putting a ball int a rund hle.D. Gruping tys f different shapes.
26. What des the fllw-up test aim t find ut abut the cckats?
A. Hw far they are able t see.B. Hw they track mving bjects.
C. Whether they are smarter than mnkeys.D. Whether they use a sense f tuch in the test.
27. Which can be a suitable title fr the text?

【导读】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了电影“猩球崛起”上个月首次与公众见面。动物爱好者聚集在好莱坞前，感谢电影制作者，在电影拍摄时，没有使用真的类人猿。现在的动物拍摄使用的是数字化人猿的创造技术，而一些电影的拍摄却存在着虐地动物的现象，这让一个非盈利的组织密切关注此事。但有些拍摄也是不能够被监测到的。
24. D。细节理解题。根据第一段“Instead, ne activist ,dressed in a full -bdy mnkey suit ,had arrived with a sign praising the filmmakers:“Thanks fr nt using real apes”可知，相反，一名身穿全套猴服的活动人士来到现场，手里拿着一块牌子，称赞电影制作人:“感谢你们不用真正的猿猴。所以动物保护者聚集在好莱坞大道是为了向电影制作者表示感谢。
25. B。主旨大意题。根据第二段“The creative team behind "Apes" used mtin-capture (动作捕捉) technlgy t create digitalized animals, spending tens f millins f dllars n technlgy that I recrds an actr’s perfrmance and later prcesses it with cmputer graphics t create a final image (图像). ”可知，“人猿”背后的创作团队利用动作捕捉技术创造数字化的动物，在记录演员表演的技术上，花费数千万美元，然后用电脑图形处理，以产生最终的影像。由此可知，第二段主要是关于数字化人猿的创造。
26. D。词句猜测题。根据第三段划线前的句子“One nnprfit rganizatin, which mnitrs the treatment r animals in filmed entertainment”以及下文Already, a number f films, including "Water fr Elephants," "The Hangver Part Ⅱ" and "Zkeeper," have drawn the anger f activists wh say the creatures acting in them haven’t been treated prperly.由此可知，其中一家监控动物待遇的非营利组织，今年正密切关注着2000多部影片。由此判断出，划线词的意思是“密切关注”。
27. A。推理判断题。根据最后一段In sme cases, it’s nt s much the treatment f the animals n set in the studi that has activists wrried; it’s the ff-set training and living cnditins that are raising cncerns. And there are questins abut the films made utside the States, which smetimes are nt mnitred as clsely as prductins filmed in the Sates.”可知，在某些情况下，让活动人士担心的并不是工作室里动物的待遇;令人担忧的是训练和生活条件。由此判断出动物演员可能受到虐待。

Five years after the invasin, the American Graves Registratin Service (AGRS) disinterred (掘出) the remains n Saipan in an effrt t recver missing American marines (海军陆战队员). But Billy was nt identified and he was cnsidered as nn-recverable.
In January 2020, remains marked as “Unknwn X-6” were disinterred frm the cemetery and taken t a lab in Hawaii. The remains, they thught, had a gd chance f being identified nw with advances in technlgy. That’s when Waggener gt a call frm the Marines.
“They gt my name and asked if I’d be willing t d a DNA test,” Waggener said. With his DNA, and that f a cusin, the lab psitively identified the unknwn remains as belnging t Billy. “They asked if we’d accept the remains and f curse we said yes,” Waggener said. “It means the wrld t bring him hme and bury him next t his family.”
Bringing Billy hme was the first gal. The secnd was burying him clse t family in a plt f land, almst all f which has been sld ut fr decades. The secnd gal might be ut f reach.
And yet, it’s as if ne f thse unsld plts has been waiting fr Billy fr 78 years. Next t a large shade tree in the cemetery, Billy’s mther, Harriett, and father, William, rest. In frnt f them are Charltte, their eldest daughter, and Mary Jane, their yungest. T Charltte’s right will be Billy, reunited with his family nce again.

The best advertisement fr public transprtatin is seeing a bus whsh past lines f cars stuck in traffic. When transit is cnvenient, cmfrtable, affrdable and faster than driving, the service practically sells itself. That’s why a recent bus-lane bm in Ls Angeles is s welcme.
Since 2019, Metr and the city’s Department f Transprtatin have rlled ut nine new segments (路段) fr a ttal f 40 miles f bus lanes n sme f the mst crwded streets with high bus ridership, such as La Brea Avenue, Venice Bulevard and Alvarad Street. The gal is t have 100 miles in place befre the 2028 Olympics.
The result has been faster, mre reliable service fr passengers—and fr drivers stuck in traffic, maybe even a little bus envy. Better bus service is essential t get peple t jbs, schls and pprtunities, and t entice drivers ut f cars t help reduce planet warming emissins.

【导语】本文是篇新闻报道。它介绍了洛杉矶公交车专用道的最新扩建情况，强调了改善公交服务对乘客和驾驶员都带来的好处。
53. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Since 2019, Metr and the city’s Department f Transprtatin have rlled ut nine new segments (路段) fr a ttal f 40 miles f bus lanes n sme f the mst crwded streets with high bus ridership, such as La Brea Avenue, Venice Bulevard and Alvarad Street.(自2019年以来，地铁和城市交通部在拉布雷亚大道(La Brea Avenue)、威尼斯大道(Venice Bulevard)和阿尔瓦拉多街(Alvarad Street)等一些最拥挤、公交客流量最高的街道上推出了9个新路段，共计40英里的公交车道)”可知，地铁和城市交通部在交通高峰时段安排公共汽车专用车道。故选C项。
54. 词句猜测题。根据前文“The result has been faster, mre reliable service fr passengers—and fr drivers stuck in traffic, maybe even a little bus envy.(其结果是为乘客提供了更快、更可靠的服务，同时也为那些被堵在路上的司机带来了些许嫉妒)”以及“help reduce planet warming emissins.”（有助于减少全球变暖排放。）可知，引起那些被堵在路上的司机的嫉妒，从而吸引他们放弃开车，推知entice意为“诱使”之意，和A项意思相近。故选A项。
55. 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Great transfrmatin has taken place since. Transit advcates have pressed Metr and elected fficials t stp treating bus riders as an afterthught. Frmer Cuncilmember Mike Bnin, wh als sat n Metr’s gverning bard, pushed fr the creatin f the Bus Speed and Reliability Wrking Grup. With a clear gal—t speed up the buses—and a mandate (授权) frm plitical leaders, staff at the tw agencies were able t cut thrugh bureaucratic barriers that ften stymie (阻碍) public wrks prjects.(从那以后发生了巨大的变化。公交倡导者向地铁和民选官员施压，要求他们不要再把公交乘客当作事后才想到的人。前市议员迈克·博宁也是地铁管理委员会的成员，他推动成立了公交速度和可靠性工作组。有了一个明确的目标——加快公共汽车的速度——和来自政治领导人的授权，这两个机构的工作人员能够突破经常阻碍公共工程项目的官僚主义障碍)”可知，是政治导致了这个转变。故选A项。
56. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Bus Rapid Transit, r busways, with dedicated lanes and special stps, have faced resistance frm sme residents and business wners, wh wrry abut lsing car lanes r parking. The cmprmise is that mst bus riders get the benefit f bus lanes nly during rush hurs, frm 7 t 10 a. m. and 4 t 7 p. m. These rush-hur lanes will demnstrate the benefits f giving peple fast, cnvenient bus service, s L. A. ‘s plitical leaders will whleheartedly supprt mre dedicated busways and even 24-hur bus lanes.(拥有专用车道和特殊停靠站的快速公交遭到了一些居民和企业主的抵制，他们担心会失去车道或停车位。折衷方案是，大多数公交乘客只有在早上7点到10点和下午4点到7点的高峰时段才能享受到公交专用道的好处。这些高峰时段的专用道将展示为人们提供快速、方便的公交服务的好处，因此洛杉矶的政治领导人将全心全意地支持更多专用公交专用道，甚至24小时公交专用道)”可知，本段讲述了洛杉矶的政治领导人将全心全意地支持更多专用公交专用道，甚至24小时公交专用道，所以是暗示了公共交通可能会得到更多支持。故选D项。

When Jasn Allen submitted his “Th éâtre D’péra Spatial” int the Clrad StateFair’s fine arts cmpetitin, the print was an immediate hit, defeating 20 ther artists in the “digitally manipulated phtgraphy” categry t win the first-place blue ribbn and a $ 300 prize.
Allen’s piece ffers a clear example f hw rapidly AI-generated art has advanced. Trained n billins f internet images, the systems have decisively pushed the bundaries f what cmputers can create.
But it has als sparked a massive debate ver the meaning f art, with Allen facing accusatins that he had been deceiving with smething he asked a machine t create.
Text-t-image tls like DALL-E 2 and Midjurney have quickly increased in sphisticatin and have becme ne f the httest tpics in AI. They can generate nt just fake peple, bjects and lcatins but mimic entire visual styles.
But AI-generated art has been criticized as autmated plagiarism (剽窃), because it relies n millins f ingested art pieces that are then parrted (机械地重复) tgether. It has als fueled deeper fears: blurring the bundaries f reality r interfering with human art.
Allen said his art piece shws peple need t “get past their denial and fear” f a technlgy that culd give rise t new inventins and reshape ur wrld. “The AI,” he said, “is a tl, just like the paintbrush is a tl. Withut the persn, there is n creative frce.”
Jessica Hair, a 25-year-ld receptinist at a dctr’s ffice wh wn third place in the cmpetitin, said she did nt feel as if Allen had acted unfairly and had n hard feelings abut his win.
Hair said her “Judge, Jury, Executiner”, which depicts a tuxeded skeletn n a glden thrne surrunded by skulls, tk 15 hurs t create with a stylus (触屏笔) n an iPad Pr. But Allen’s piece tk time, effrt and subjective judgment, t, and “hw d we qualify what is and isn’t art?” she said.
69. Which f the fllwing statements can be inferred frm the text?
A. It is the first time in histry that an AI-generated wrk has wn an arts cmpetitin.
B. Advances made in cmputer art are nt as rapid as the public believes them t be.
C. Cmputer-prduced wrks have mre success in sme art frms than in thers.
D. Peple’s acceptance f cmputer-prduced art pieces can vary cnsiderably.
70. Accrding t the text, why is AI-generated art facing severe criticism?
A. Because it will ultimately vertake human art in the future.
B. Because it will lead t a sharp decrease in human creativity.
C. Because it purely uses existing art pieces as its subject matter.
D. Because the technical standard f its utput is extremely lw.
71. What was Allen’s reactin t peple’s criticism?
A. He fught back like a sldier.
B. He kept silent like a victim.
C. He persuaded like a prmter.
D. He lst heart like a failure.
72. What is Jessica Hair’s attitude twards Allen’s award-winning piece?

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。Jasn Allen将他人工智能生成的作品提交到科罗拉多州立博览会的美术比赛时，在“数字处理摄影”类别中击败了其他20位艺术家，赢得了第一名的蓝带和300美元的奖金。但这也引发了一场关于艺术意义的大规模辩论。
69. 推理判断题。根据第三段“But it has als sparked a massive debate ver the meaning f art, with Allen facing accusatins that he had been deceiving with smething he asked a machine t create. (但这也引发了一场关于艺术意义的大规模辩论，Allen面临着指控，称他让机器创作的东西是在欺骗)”可知，AI生成的艺术作品引起了人们对艺术的意义的激烈辩论，所以人们对AI生成的艺术作品的接受程度不一。故选D。
70. 细节理解题。根据第五段“But AI-generated art has been criticized as autmated plagiarism (剽窃), because it relies n millins f ingested art pieces that are then parrted (机械地重复) tgether. (但人工智能生成的艺术一直被批评为自动抄袭，因为它依赖于数百万件被吸收的艺术作品，然后被鹦鹉学舌地放在一起)”可知，人们指责AI生成的作品不过是把大量的现成作品机械地重复组合在一起，文中的“millins f ingested art pieces that are then parrted(机械地重复) tgether”对应C选项“Because it purely uses existing art pieces as its subject matter. (因为它纯粹使用现有的艺术作品作为主题)”中的“uses existing art pieces as its subject matter”。故选C。
71. 细节理解题。根据第六段中Allen所说的话“Allen said his art piece shws peple need t “get past their denial and fear” f a technlgy that culd give rise t new inventins and reshape ur wrld. (Allen说他的艺术作品表明人们需要“克服对技术的否认和恐惧”，因为这项技术可能会产生新的发明，重塑我们的世界)”可知，他试图以一个AI倡导者的身份，来说服人们接受AI，所以C符合题意。易错选项为A选项“He fught back like a sldier. (他像战士一样进行反击)”，可文中并没有提到Allen的凶猛回击，只是在用语言来劝说。故选C。
72. 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Jessica Hair, a 25-year-ld receptinist at a dctr’s ffice wh wn third place in the cmpetitin, said she did nt feel as if Allen had acted unfairly and had n hard feelings abut his win. (25岁的Jessica Hair是一家医生办公室的接待员，她在比赛中获得了第三名。她并不觉得艾伦有不公平的行为，也没有对他的获奖感到难过)”可知，Jessica并不觉得 Allen的行为有问题。再结合最后一段Allen说的话“But Allen’s piece tk time, effrt and subjective judgment, t, and “hw d we qualify what is and isn’t art?” (但Allen的作品也需要时间、精力和主观判断，“我们如何界定什么是艺术，什么不是艺术?”)”可知，Jessica认为即便是用AI创作，也是要付出时间，精力和主观判断的，所以这本质上也是一种创作，可以推断出她持支持的态度。故选A。

Only a “clud” away is hw residents at the Dzilam reserve in Mexic think f the distance between Latin America and China, despite their gegraphical remteness.
The “clud” isn’t the ne hanging up in the sky. What the residents refer t is in fact clud technlgy, which has been applied t wildlife cnservatin in this Mexican reserve.
In recent years, with clud technlgy, technicians and eclgists frm China and its trans-Pacific partners have been able t wrk hand in hand under the Belt and Rad Initiative t prtect endangered species and their habitats in Mexic.
Hme t many endangered species in Mexic, the Dzilam reserve, knwn fr its bidiversity-rich habitats, has started t witness ecsystem degradatin (衰退) ver the years due t human activities and climate change. In 2002, the jaguar, the nly big cat left in the reserve, was listed as “Near Threatened” n the IUCN Red List.
Lcal cmmunities and envirnmentalists have tried t track the habitat f jaguars, but have fund it rather difficult: These animals are ften hidden in vast frests, rarely leaving bvius traces, making it hard t bserve them under natural cnditins.
T better prtect wild animals and bidiversity, the Tech4Nature Mexic prject was launched in the Dzilam reserve. The prject cllects vide data frm cameras recrding 24 hurs a day in the Dzilam reserve t mnitr the bidiversity f the area and uses acustic (声学的) technlgy t understand the existence f species and the health f ecsystems. The research team wuld use Huawei’s Al mdel t identify the areas where the big cat appeared by identifying sunds, studying their living habits and develping management plans t prtect the species. In additin, when a threat is detected, the system immediately sends a real-time alarm with the lcatin t lcal frest guards thrugh an app fr rapid interventin.

Paper straws, which are being pushed acrss the U.S. as an ec-friendly alternative t plastic versins, may cntain “frever chemicals” that are harmful t bth humans and the envirnment and were bserved mre ften than in a sample f plastic straws, a new Eurpean study has fund.
Belgian researchers tested 39 straw brands frm restaurants and retailers fr synthetic (人工合成的) chemicals knwn as ply and perfluralkyl substances (PFAS). The study fund that the majrity f straws cntained thse chemicals, but they were mst cmmn in thse made frm paper and bamb. The chemicals are referred t as “frever chemicals” as they can remain fr thusands f years in the envirnment. The chemicals have been assciated with health issues like liver damage r kidney cancer and can harm the envirnment as well.
Of the brands tested, 90% f the paper straws cntained PFAS, cmpared t 80% f bamb straws, 75% f plastic straws and 40% f glass straws. Nne f the steel straws cntained the chemicals. The study was published in the peer-reviewed jurnal Fd Additives and Cntaminants. Researchers stressed that PFAS cncentratin was lw and psed a limited risk t health, given that peple use such straws nly ccasinally. But they can remain in the bdy fr years, and cncentratins can build up, they said in a release.
“Straws made frm plant-based materials, such as paper and bamb, are ften advertised as being mre sustainable and ec-friendly than thse made frm plastic,” researcher Dr. Thim Grffen, an envirnmental scientist at the University f Antwerp, said in a statement. “Hwever, the presence f PFAS in these straws means that’s nt necessarily true.”
It wasn’t clear whether the chemicals were added by manufacturers r ccurred due t cntaminatin (污染) frm sil and water during manufacturing. The study did nt lk int whether the straws culd cntaminate liquids.
“The presence f PFAS in paper and bamb straws shws that they are nt necessarily bidegradable,” Grffen said. “We did nt detect any PFAS in stainless steel straws, s I wuld advise cnsumers t use this type f straw — r just avid using straws at all.”
The study cmes as Eurpean cuntries, and sme parts f the U.S., have pushed t shift away frm plastic straws t alternatives in effrts t be mre envirnmentally friendly. States including Califrnia and New Yrk have enfrced bans n single-use plastic straws in restaurants.

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了一项对于纸吸管的研究。纸吸管或植物做成的吸管成为塑料吸管的代替品，但研究表明，这种吸管里含有聚和全氟烷基物质（PFAS），对人体和环境都有危害，让人不禁对其所谓的环保属性产生质疑。
85. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“Researchers stressed that PFAS cncentratin was lw and psed a limited risk t health, given that peple use such straws nly ccasinally. But they can remain in the bdy fr years, and cncentratins can build up, they said in a release.(研究人员强调，PFAS浓度很低，对健康构成的风险有限，考虑到人们只是偶尔使用这种吸管。但他们在一份新闻稿中说，它们可以在体内停留数年，浓度会上升)”可知，PFAS的浓度较低时，对人们健康造成的风险有限，但是它们可以长期停留在体内，继而浓度也会上升，对人们健康造成的风险也会随之增大。由此推知，尽管PFAS浓度很低，但积累会带来潜在的风险。故选B项。
86. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“Straws made frm plant-based materials, such as paper and bamb, are ften advertised as being mre sustainable and ec-friendly than thse made frm plastic(由植物材料制成的吸管，如纸和竹子，通常被宣传为比塑料制成的吸管更可持续、更环保)”以及“Hwever, the presence f PFAS in these straws means that’s nt necessarily true.(然而，这些吸管中PFAS的存在意味着这并不一定是真的)”可知，当了解到植物做成的吸管中含有PFAS时，Grffen对其环保性产生了怀疑。由此推知，他对植物做成的吸管持怀疑态度。故选A项。
87. 细节理解题。根据文章末尾段内容“The study cmes as Eurpean cuntries, and sme parts f the U.S., have pushed t shift away frm plastic straws t alternatives in effrts t be mre envirnmentally friendly.(这项研究发表之际，欧洲国家和美国部分地区正在努力从塑料吸管转向替代品，以更加环保)”可知，用替代品代替塑料吸管是为了更加环保。故选A项。
88. 主旨大意题。通读文章内容可知，文章的首段内容“Paper straws, which are being pushed acrss the U.S. as an ec-friendly alternative t plastic versins, may cntain “frever chemicals” that are harmful t bth humans and the envirnment and were bserved mre ften than in a sample f plastic straws, a new Eurpean study has fund.(欧洲的一项新研究发现，作为塑料吸管的环保替代品，纸吸管可能含有对人类和环境有害的“永久化学物质”，而且比塑料吸管样本中更常见)”提出了文章的主旨要义，即文章主要讲述了一项对于纸吸管的研究，文章围绕纸吸管中可能含有对人类和环境有害的“永久化学物质”PFAS进行了解释和讨论，指出纸吸管作为塑料吸管的代替品，却有可能带来更大危害。由此可知，选项B“Paper Straws — a Relatively Greater Threat(纸吸管——一个相对更大的威胁)”贴合主旨，可作最佳标题。故选B项。

The Wrld Msquit Prgram has annunced that it will release mdified msquites in many f Brazil’s urban areas ver the next 10 years. The aim is t prtect up t 70 millin peple frm diseases such as dengue, an infectius disease mainly spread by msquites.
Brazil has ne f the highest rates f dengue infectin in the wrld, accrding t the Nature website. “Mre than 1,000 peple died f dengue in 2022 because f the spread f msquites. It’s ging everywhere,” Lucian Mreira, a scientist in Ri de Janeir, Brazil, tld CBC News.
Anther way t prevent msquites frm spreading diseases is by prducing genetically mdified msquites (GM). In 2022, the US Envirnmental Prtectin Agency cleared the release f 2.4 billin GM msquites in Califrnia and Flrida.
Accrding t the agency, GM msquites carry tw types f genes: a self-limiting gene that prevents female ffspring (后代) frm surviving t adulthd; and a marker gene that allws researchers t identify GM nes in the wild. After being released, GM msquites lay eggs, s the genes are passed n t ffspring. In this way, the number f female msquites is reduced, therefre reducing the chance f spreading disease.
117. What is the final purpse f building the “msquit factry”?
A. T prevent the spread f msquit-brne diseases.
B. T prduce massive msquites fr scientific research.
C. T study the behavir f msquites in different envirnments.
D. T replace the natural msquit ppulatin with a mdified ne.
118. What is the functin f Paragraph 5 in the text?
A. It states challenges facing the prgram.B. It prvides the backgrund t the prgram.
C. It shws the expected effect f the prgram.D. It indicates an pinin n the annuncement.
119. Hw des the self-limiting gene in genetically mdified msquites wrk?
A. By limiting their ability t lay eggs.B. By making them immune t disease.
C. By reducing their ffspring’s lifespans.D. By allwing them t be easily identified.
120. What can be the best title fr the text?
A. Releasing GM MsquitesB. Reducing Dengue in Brazil
C. Experimenting n Mdified InsectsD. Mdifying Infectius Msquites
【答案】
117. A 118. B 119. C 120. D
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一项关于通过改良蚊子基因来防止蚊子传播疾病的研究。
117. 细节理解题。根据第四段“The Wrld Msquit Prgram has annunced that it will release mdified msquites in many f Brazil’s urban areas ver the next 10 years. The aim is t prtect up t 70 millin peple frm diseases such as dengue, an infectius disease mainly spread by msquites. (世界蚊子项目宣布，未来10年将在巴西许多城市地区释放转基因蚊子。其目的是保护多达7000万人免受登革热等疾病的侵害。登革热是一种主要由蚊子传播的传染病。)”和第六段中“Anther way t prevent msquites frm spreading diseases is by prducing genetically mdified msquites (GM).(另一种防止蚊子传播疾病的方法是培育转基因蚊子。)”可知，建造“蚊子工厂”的最终目的是防止蚊媒疾病的传播。故选A项。
118. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The Wrld Msquit Prgram has annunced that it will release mdified msquites in many f Brazil’s urban areas ver the next 10 years. (世界蚊子项目宣布，未来10年将在巴西许多城市地区释放转基因蚊子。)”和第五段“Brazil has ne f the highest rates f dengue infectin in the wrld, accrding t the Nature website. “Mre than 1,000 peple died f dengue in 2022 because f the spread f msquites. It’s ging everywhere,” Lucian Mreira, a scientist in Ri de Janeir, Brazil, tld CBC News. (据《自然》期刊网站报道，巴西是世界上登革热感染率最高的国家之一。“由于蚊子的传播，2022年有1000多人死于登革热。它无处不在，”巴西里约热内卢的科学家卢西亚诺·莫雷拉告诉CBC新闻。)”可推知，第五段用数据介绍了登革热在巴西造成的危害，从而为第四段中“释放转基因蚊子”项目提供了背景知识。故选B项。
119. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Accrding t the agency, GM msquites carry tw types f genes: a self-limiting gene that prevents female ffspring (后代) frm surviving t adulthd (据该机构称，转基因蚊子携带两种类型的基因：一种是自我限制的基因，可以阻止雌性后代存活到成年)”可知，转基因蚊子的自我限制基因通过缩短后代的寿命来发挥作用。故选C项。
120. 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章报道了一项关于通过改良蚊子基因来防止蚊子传播疾病的研究，所以“Mdifying Infectius Msquites (改良传染性蚊子)”是文章最佳标题。故选D项。
