4.B【解析】本文是说明文文章主要讲述句号一般用来表达结束句子,但是现在的年轻人常常在表达愤怒的时候才会使用.细节理解题根据第一段“ThefullstopwhichcomesfromGreekpunctuation(标点符号)isusuallyusedtoexpresstheendofasentencebutnowitfrightensyoungpeoplewhenusedinsocialmediacommunicationasasignofanger.(句号,来自希腊的标点符号,通常用来表达句子的结尾,但现在它在社交媒体传播中被用作愤怒的标志时会吓到年轻人户可知,年轻人发短信时使用句号最可能的原因是为了表达愤怒故选C.词句猜测题根据第二段最后一句Ifyousendatextmessagewithoutafullstopifsalreadyobviousthatyouveconcludedthemessage.(如果发信息不用句号,也很明显的表示了你已经结束了这条信息)“,因此推断划线句句意为有些人说,发短信时用句号是多余的,因为短信一发出就结束了所以划线词词义与unnecessary意思相近故选D.推理判断题根据倒数第二段最后一句UnusuallytextsendinginanexclamationpointJ6lmao!\whatbodypartevenisthatIhopeitsyourarm!^^arethoughtheartfelt.(不寻常的是,以感叹号结尾的文本“笑死我了!”“那是什么身体部分?我希望这是你的手臂!”被认为是发自内心的)”可推断,感叹号常常表达真诚故选B.主旨大意题根据第一段内容ThefullstopwhichcomesfromGreekpunctuation(标点符号),isusuallyusedtoexpresstheendofasentencebutnowitfrightensyoungpeoplewhenusedinsocialmediacommunicationasasignofanger.(句号,来自希腊的标点符号,通常用来表达句子的结尾,但现在它在社交媒体传播中被用作愤怒的标志时会吓到年轻人厂可知,本文主要介绍句号的新功能:表达愤怒因此推断B项“句号的新作用”为最佳标题故选B

8.D【解析】本文是一篇说明文传统的塑料袋对环境影响太大文章介绍了一种可以食用并迅速分解的环保袋的发明过程,这种环保袋可以帮助我们解决塑料污染的问题.细节理解题根据第二段“IndiancompanyEnviGreenhasmadeabagwithnaturalingredients(成分).Itlooksandfeelsjustlikeplasticbutcanbebrokendowneasily.Thebagsbringnoharmtotheenvironment.Bothhumansandanimalscansafelyeatthem.(E[]度公司EnviGreen用天然原料制作了一款袋子它看起来和摸起来就像塑料但很容易分解这种塑料袋对环境无害人和动物都可以安全地食用它们)可知,EnviGreen口袋可以吃,是因为它含有天然成分故选Co.计算题根据第三段中AlthoughtheEnviGreenbagisabout35percentmoreexpensivethanacommonplasticbagithasmanyadvantages.(尽管EnviGreen袋比普通塑料袋贵35%但它有很多优点)由此可知,一个普通塑料袋是¥
0.5所以环保袋的价格应该是¥
0.5+¥
0.5的35%即¥
0.675故选B.细节理解题根据第三段中“EnviGreenfounderAshwathHedgespentfouryearsdoingexperimentswithacombinationof12naturalingredients.Theyincludepotatocornvegetableoilandbanana.Hemadetheingredientsintoliquidandusedtheliquidtomakethebag.”(EnviGreen的创始人阿什沃斯・赫奇花了四年时间用12种天然成分的组合做实验它们包括土豆、玉米、植物油和香蕉他把原料变成液体,用液体做袋子)由此可知,他制造了一种特殊的液体来形成这种材料所以B项能描述AshwathHedge的试验故选B.推理判断题文章告诉我们这种环保袋是由可食用的材料制成的,而且很容易分解根据最后一段最后一句InChina3billionplasticbagsareusedeveryday.MaybetheEnviGreenbagcouldbeasolutiontotheworldproblemofplasticpollution.(在中国,每天有30亿个塑料袋被使用也许EnviGreen口袋可以解决世界塑料污染问题)可知推知,塑料污染在一些发展中国家是一个严重的问题故选D.B
10.B
11.A
12.D【解析】本文是一篇说明文主要讲述一些企业为了能够提高员工的生产率,制定一些看似有效的计划,实际上并没有从根本上解决员工的工作压力,不会起到作用.推理判断题根据第三段最后一句Sotheemployeesmayhavebeenfitterbutitispossiblethatworkplacepressuretoproducemoremeantgreaterstress.”因此,员工可能更健康了,但工作场所产生更多压力也可能意味着更大的压力和第四段第一句Allthissuggeststhatemployeewell-beingisarathermorecomplextopicthancanbetackled应对byaprogrammedevotedtoexerciseandhealthyliving.”所有这些都表明员工福祉是一个相当复杂的话题,而不是一个致力于锻炼和健康生活的项目所能解决的强生的例子表明这项计划并没有提高公司的生产力由此可推断,强生的例子表明了一项健康计划本身并不能达到预期的效果故选Bo.推理判断题根据第四段“AstudybyRandEurope...Thebiggestproductivityproblemswereassociatedwithlackofsleepfinancialconcernsandmental-healthissues-factorsthatmaywellbedirectlylinkedtowork-relatedstress.”研究机构兰德欧洲智囊团的一项研究发现,明显的坏习惯如抽烟和酗酒,其实和生产力低并无关联,而肥胖的员工休息的时间并不比其他人多最大的生产力问题和缺乏睡眠经济情况以及精神健康问题——这些和工作压力直接挂钩的因素相关由此可知,与工作相关的压力会导致生产力下降故选B.词义猜测题根据上文“Itseemsreasonableforcompaniestoexpectsomelevelofeconomiesreturnonanywellnessprogrammethattheyprovide.”公司期望他们提供的任何健康计划都能带来一定程度的经济回报,这似乎是合理的下句但是表示转折,由此推断blatant应为明目张胆的,和obvious明显的,意思相近,故选A.推理判断题根据最后一段Itseemsreasonableforcompaniestoexpectsomelevelofeconomiesreturnonanywellnessprogrammethattheyprovide....Abetterimpactonmoraleandthusproductivitymightoccurifworkersfeltthattheirmanagershadagenuineinterestintheirwelfare公司想从他们提供的健康项目中获取一定程度的经济回报,这似乎合情合理但是这种交换不应该太过明目张胆让员工们更加健康,这样你就能让他们更努力的工作这似乎很像是在野战训练场上训练你的步兵,然后把他们送去面对机关枪如果员工们感到管理者真正关心他们的福利,那么这对鼓舞士气(以及对生产力)会有更好的影响以及强生公司的例子都在说明企业的一些计划可能不会提高员工的生产率,因此推断作者写这篇文章的目的就是质疑商业管理中一些看似有效的做法故选D.F
