27、问的是，作者喜欢樱桃什么。根据第二段中 As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who cares?(至于樱桃，因为它们很好吃谁在乎呢?)可知，作者在乎的是它的美味。故选 C。 【5 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的 If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown.可知， 往香蕉上滴新鲜的柠檬汁是为了防止香蕉变成褐色， 故新鲜的柠檬汁是被用来保持香蕉的颜色 的。故选 B。 【6 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一
28、段中 they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below 可知，孩子们喜欢把一些水果和冷冻的香蕉放入到这台机器的上部， 然后看到冰激凌从下面出来。故可以推出 a juicer就是一台机器。故选 D。 【7 题详解】 文章出处题。文章首先指出七月是水果盛产的季节，并指出各种水果富含的营养，最后一段指出我们可以 用 a juicer为孩子们做一些甜点和冰激凌，故最可能是从健康杂志上摘取的文章。A项意为：生物教科书； B
29、项意为：一本健康杂志；C 项意为：一篇研究论文；D项意为：一本旅游手册。故选 B。 点睛：做词义猜测题时我们要注意观察，划线单词的构成结构。如本题背划线的单词是 juicer，我们都知道 “er”是单词的后缀。它既可以表示人，又可以表示物。如：cleaner 既可以表示清洁工，又可以表示清洁工 具。根据下文中的意思，可以判断出本题中的 a juicer是表示物。 C Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monda
30、y. While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many childrens lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.

31、r read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.” The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 28, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each sessi
32、on has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.

38、减少。文中从阅读的乐趣，阅读的时间，阅读方式和父母对孩子阅读的影响等角度展示了该报告的 内容。 【8 题详解】 推理判断题。题干问的是这篇报道可能是关于什么内容。根据整篇文章，我们可以看出这篇报道讲述了孩 子们阅读的乐趣，孩子们阅读的时间，孩子们阅读方式和父母对孩子阅读的影响。A 项意为：孩子们的阅 读习惯；B 项意为：孩子们所读书籍的质量；C 项意为：孩子们的课后活动；D项意为：父母与孩子的关系。 故选 A。 【9 题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第三段中的 the proportion (比例) who say they hardly ever read for fun has gone fr
39、om 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.可知，很少为 乐趣而阅读的人的比例已经分别从 1984年的 13岁的 8%和 17岁的 9%上升到现在的 22%和 27%。 也就是说， 为乐趣而读书的人越来越少了。故选 B。 【10 题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段最后一句 many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns a
40、bout increased screen time 可知，许多家长仍然限制电子阅读，主要是由于担心看一些电子屏幕的时间越来越多， 也即是担心会伤害孩子们的健康。故选 C。 【11 题详解】 细节理解题。 根据倒数第二段 The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading.可知，有明显的证据表明，父母为孩子们 做榜样并为孩子们作重要指导能
41、培养孩子的阅读习惯。也即是说，父母可以通过给孩子们作榜样来鼓励孩 子们阅读的。故选 A。 【点睛】作此类型的题时，一定要读懂第一段。第一段读懂了，整篇文章大意也就迎刃而解了。明白了大 意，第 28题我们也不难看出答案，本文讲的肯定不是质量，不是活动也不是关系。而是习惯，即孩子们的 阅读习惯。 D According to a new study， teens focus on rewards and have a hard time learning to avoid punishment or consider the consequences of alternative actions.
42、 University College London researchers compared how teens and adults learn to make choices based on the available information. They tracked the way in which 18 volunteers aged 12-17 and 20 volunteers aged 18-32 completed tasks in which they had to choose between abstract symbols. Each symbol was con
43、sistently associated with a fixed chance of a reward, punishment, or no outcome. As the trial progressed ， participants learned which symbols were likely to lead to each outcome and adjusted their choices accordingly. Teens and adults were equally good at learning to choose symbols associated with r
44、eward， but teens were less good at avoiding symbols associated with punishment. Adults also performed significantly better when they were told what would have happened if they had chosen the other symbol after each choice， while teens did not appear to take this information into account. “From this
45、experimental lab study we can draw conclusions about learning during the teen years. We find that teens and adults learn in different ways， something that might be relevant to education,“ said lead author Dr. Stefano Palminteri. “ Unlike adults, teens are not so good at learning to adjust their choi
46、ces to avoid punishment. This suggests that incentive systems based on reward rather than punishment may be more effective for this age group. Additionally, we found that teens did not learn from being shown what would have happened if they made alternative choices.“ To interpret the results, the re
47、searchers developed computational models of learning and ran simulations (模 拟)applying them to the results of the study. The first was a simple model, one that learned from rewards, and the second model added to this by also learning from the option that was not chosen. The third model was the most
48、complete and took the full context into account, with equal weight given to punishment avoidance and reward seeking. For example, obtaining no outcome rather than losing a point is weighted equally to gaining a point rather than having no outcome. Comparing the experimental data to the models, the t
49、eam found that teens“ behavior followed the simple reward-based model while adults“ behavior matched the complete, contextual model. “Our study suggests that teens are more receptive to rewards than they are to punishments of equal value, ” said senior author Dr. Sarah-Jayne Blakemore. “As a result, it may be useful for parents and teachers to frame things in more positive terms.” 12. It can be learned from the study that . A. adults made choices faster than tee
