飛機(jī)在有威脅的風(fēng)暴中心中播撒一種化學(xué)物質(zhì)，使小冰晶在變成危險(xiǎn)的冰雹之前像雨一樣落下。該句的主干為airplanesseedthreateningstormcells.withachemical作方式狀語，tomakesmallicecrystalsfallasrain目的狀語，beforetheycangrow...時(shí)間狀語。Giventhedegreeofdoubt,Mr.Stienwandsuggests,“itwouldbewisetostopcloudseeding.鑒于質(zhì)疑程度，Mr.Stienwand認(rèn)為停止人工降雨是明智的。Given為介詞，表示考慮到，鑒于D篇【答案】12.D13.C

14.B

15.D【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。在信息化時(shí)代我們作為成年人每天都在面對(duì)棉花糖測(cè)試，信息轟炸讓我們攝入了太多精神“垃圾食品”，文章對(duì)此進(jìn)行了介紹。【12題詳解】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第四句“Eachchildwastoldiftheywaitedfor15minutesbeforeeatingthetreat,theywouldbegivenasecondtreat.(每個(gè)孩子都被告知，如果他們?cè)诔灾暗却?5分鐘，他們將得到第二次獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。)”可知，在米歇爾的測(cè)試中，孩子們需要在吃之前等待15分鐘才能得到第二次獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。故選D?！?3題詳解】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句“Butaswe’vereshapedtheworldaroundus,dramaticallyreducingthecostandeffortinvolvedinobtainingcalories,westillhavethesamebrainswehadthousandsofyearsago,andthismismatchisattheheartofwhysomanyofusstruggletoresisttemptingfoodsthatweknowweshouldn’teat.(但是，當(dāng)我們重塑了我們周圍的世界，大大減少了獲取卡路里的成本和努力時(shí)，我們的大腦仍然和幾千年前一樣，這種不匹配是我們這么多人努力抵抗我們知道不應(yīng)該吃的誘人食物的核心原因。)”可知，根據(jù)第三段可知，豐富的食物供應(yīng)和我們不曾改變的大腦之間存在不匹配。故選C。【14題詳解】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句“Therefore,justasweneedtobemorethoughtfulaboutourcaloricconsumption,wealsoneedtobemorethoughtfulaboutourinformationconsumption,resistingthetemptationofthemental“junkfood”inordertomanageourtimemosteffectively.(因此，就像我們需要更仔細(xì)地考慮我們的熱量消耗一樣，我們也需要更仔細(xì)地考慮我們的信息消耗，抵制精神“垃圾食品”的誘惑，以便最有效地管理我們的時(shí)間。)”可知，作者建議讀者做有選擇性的信息消費(fèi)者。故選B?！?5題詳解】主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段“Asadultswefaceaversionofthemarshmallowtesteveryday.We’renottempted(誘惑)bysugarytreats,butbyourcomputers,phones,andtablets—allthedevicesthatconnectustotheglobaldeliverysystemforvarioustypesofinformationthatdotouswhatmarshmallowsdotopreschoolers.(作為成年人，我們每天都要面對(duì)棉花糖測(cè)試。誘惑我們的不是甜食，而是我們的電腦、手機(jī)和平板電腦——所有這些將我們與全球信息傳遞系統(tǒng)連接起來的設(shè)備，它們對(duì)我們的作用就像棉花糖對(duì)學(xué)齡前兒童的作用一樣。)”可知，文章主要是講在信息化時(shí)代我們作
