Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2020·昆明摸底调研)
A study of 500,000 songs released(发行) in the UK between 1985 and 2015 showed that pop music had decreased in happiness and increased in sadness.
In a report published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, researchers at the University of California examined hundreds of thousands of songs and classified them by their mood. “‘Happiness’ is going down, ‘sadness’ is going up, and at the same time, the songs are becoming more ‘danceable’ and more ‘partylike’,” coauthor Natalia L.Komarova told The Associated Press.
The study found songs in 2014 like Stay with Me by Sam Smith, Whispers by Passenger and Unmissable by Gorgon City have a “low happiness” trend. However, tracks from 1984 like Glory Days by Bruce Springsteen, Would I Lie to You? by Eurythmics and Freedom by Wham! had a “high happiness” trend. “The public seems to prefer happier songs, even though more and more unhappy songs are being released each year,” the researchers wrote.
Apart from the emotional trends, researchers discovered that dances and pop were the most successful styles of music and that there was a “clear downward” trend, with the popularity of rock beginning in the early 2000s. “So it looks like, while the overall mood is becoming less happy, people seem to want to forget it all and dance,” Komarova wrote in an email.
It was also found that the “maleness” of songs—the frequency of male singers in popular music—had decreased during the last 30 years. “Successful songs are characterised by a larger percentage of female artists compared to all songs,” they wrote.
This discovery appears at a time when the conversation around sex equality in the music industry is at its height, with more male artists and songwriters.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了流行音乐表达的情绪的变化趋势。
1.The researchers examined lots of songs to ________.
A.find songs for dances and parties
B.choose songs for a journal
C.release more songs
D.know better about songs
D 解析:推理判断题。本文第二段介绍了加州大学的研究者们调查了成千上万的歌曲并把它们按情绪分类,紧接着得出歌曲分类的结果,可见他们调查歌曲的目的是想对歌曲有更多的了解,故选D。A、C两项曲解文意;B项无中生有。
2.Whose music style tends to bring you more happiness?
A.Natalia L.Komarova’s.
B.Sam Smith’s.
C.Gorgon City’s.
D.Bruce Springsteen’s.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, tracks from 1984 like Glory Days by Bruce Springsteen...had a ‘high happiness’ trend.”可知D项正确。Natalia L.Komarova为报道的合著者,而非歌手;Sam Smith、Gorgon City所演唱的歌曲有让人开心感降低的趋势,故排除。
3.What do we know about songs over the past three decades?
A.Rock became popular in the early 2000s.
B.Fewer unhappy songs came to light every year.
C.Male singers were better at performing pop music.
D.Female artists were less skilled in writing songs.
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“with the popularity of rock beginning in the early 2000s”可知,摇滚乐在21世纪初开始流行,故A项正确。其余三个选项的内容均与文意不符。
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Pop Music Is Getting Sadder
B.Music Calls for Sex Equality
C.Pop Music Has a Long History
D.Music Industry Is Going Down
A 解析:标题归纳题。根据本文首段总述及后续段落的描述可知,全文重点介绍了流行音乐正变得越来越伤感,故选A项。B项仅是本文中提到的一个细节;C项不是本文的重点;D项扩大外延,属过度概括,故排除。
B
(2020·成都高三摸底)As evolution tends to remove waste, how come we evolved such large, energyconsuming brains? The dominant hypothesis(假设) suggests that tough social interactions are the driving force. But our new study done in an unusual way shows that human brain expansion is likely driven by ecology(生态).
Scientists have tested the ecological and social hypotheses before. The common approach is to look at many species and investigate whether large brains are associated with specific problems. For example, do primates or other animals with large brains have a diet that is challenging to find but nutritionally rewarding? This would indicate an ecological origin. Or do they live in large groups where they face lots of social problems?
While many studies have found such associations, there is a problem. It cannot tell whether large brains evolved to solve the difficult problems or whether they evolved for other reasons and then enabled their bearers to deal with the hard problems.
To find out the causes of brain expansion, we recreated the scenarios(可能出现的情况) of the two hypotheses using a mathematical model. We found that a combination of ecological and social challenges do produce the brain size we see in humans. But it was ecological challenges that expanded brains. In contrast to the dominant view and our own expectation, we found that social challenges contributed by decreasing brain size. But you need both factors to get the brain size we see today—if there were no social challenges our brains would have been even larger but likely poorly suited to social life. Bigger isn’t necessarily better.
But many animals face hard ecological problems. Why don’t they all have large brains? We found that ecological problems only lead to humansized brains when individuals can keep learning hard skills as they grow. So our results and those of others’ suggest that hard ecology and the accumulation of cultural knowledge could act together to produce a humansized brain.
Will the human brain expand further? The complexity of the systems involved makes it impossible to say much with certainty at present.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。科学研究发现,人类大脑的大小是由生态环境和文化知识积累的共同作用决定的;大脑并非越大越好,如果大脑过大,则人类将无法适应社交活动。
5.In most people’s view, what makes human evolve large brains?
A.Social challenges.
B.Social and ecological challenges.
C.Ecological challenges.
D.Competition with other large animals.
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“The dominant hypothesis(假设)suggests that tough social interactions are the driving force.”并结合第一段内容可知,大部分人认为棘手的社交活动是人类大脑进化的动力,故A项正确。
6.What’s the problem of the common approach?
A.Its model is not reliable enough.
B.It doesn’t tell the cause and effect clearly.
C.Its hypothesis cannot be proved effectively.
D.It doesn’t find brain size is connected with problems.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“It cannot tell whether large brains evolved to solve the difficult problems or whether they evolved for other reasons and then enabled their bearers to deal with the hard problems.”可知,传统的研究方法无法解释清楚大脑进化的原因和影响,故B项正确。
7.Why don’t many animals have large brains?
A.They don’t learn from each other.
B.They don’t face hard ecological problems.
C.They don’t need to cooperate with each other.
D.They don’t keep learning tough skills as they grow.
D 解析:推理判断题。根据第五段第二、三句“Why don’t they all have large brains? We found that ecological problems only lead to humansized brains when individuals can keep learning hard skills as they grow.”可知,只有当个体在成长过程中不断学习艰难的技能时,生态环境才会影响人类特定大小的大脑。据此可推知,动物在成长过程中并没有持续学习艰难的技能,所以动物没有大的大脑,故D项正确。
8.Which of the following do the researchers find most surprising?
A.Animals don’t have large brains.
B.Social challenges decrease brain size.
C.Ecological challenges increase brain size.
D.It’s unclear whether human brains will expand further.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第四句“In contrast to the dominant view and our own expectation, we found that social challenges contributed by decreasing brain size.”可知,与主流观点及我们自己的预期相反,我们发现社会挑战导致大脑变小。据此可知,社会挑战导致大脑变小是令人惊讶的发现,故B项正确。
Ⅱ.七选五
(2020·长沙统一模拟)It is not as simple as opening the door and hitting the track in winter. There are a few things you can do to ensure you are getting the most out of your run and, importantly, not doing more harm than good.
Warm up, cool down
1.________. Your muscles need some time to warm up when it’s cold, so take it easy when you set off and do a few stretches once you’re finished.
Drink water
You might not feel hot, but that’s because sweat evaporates(蒸发) more quickly into the chilly, dry air. So be sure to drink water before, during and after coldweather workouts. 2.________. A belt bottle conveniently attaches to your waist so you don’t have to carry it and can have a drink whenever you feel like it.
3.________
Running in cotton is a bad idea. Wear thin, breathable layers of synthetic(合成的) clothing that help protect you from the wind and snow, but still let out heat and moisture. Thirty percent of your body heat escapes through your hands and forty percent through your head. Wear a hat, or beanie(无檐小便帽), and gloves so your circulatory system can distribute warm blood to the rest of your body. 4.________.
Run into the wind
