B.Strengthened.C.Overturned.D.Overemphasized.解析C詞義揣測題。分析語境可知，畫線詞后面的賓語thisidea指的是上文中的"古畫似乎不行能在高溫環(huán)境中被保存下來，所以這項(xiàng)藝術(shù)不會很古老"。由下文中的"theyfoundahandstencilwasatleast39，900yearsold"可知，探討人員利用技術(shù)手段推翻了之前人們認(rèn)為洞窟里的藝術(shù)不行能很古老的說法，故C項(xiàng)與畫線詞在意義上最為接近。4.Whatdoesthelastparagraphmainlytalkabout？A.Theamazingdiscoveries.B.Theresearchers’expectations.C.Thebenefitsofthetechnique.D.Thedescriptionofthecaveart.解析A段落大意題。由最終一段中的"ThisopenedafloodgatetonewdiscoveriesinIndonesia"和AdamBrumm的話"Whenwefoundthatimage...wewerealmostjumpingwithjoy"可以看出，本段主要講了探討人員在印度尼西亞的驚人發(fā)覺，故A項(xiàng)正確。二、七選五[2024山東聯(lián)考]ItseemsabitstrangetoimaginetheancientGreekscelebratingtheirbirthdayswithlayeredcakestoppedwithlightedcandles.1Thefirstbirthdaycakeswerenothingofwhattheyaretodayandweren’tevencalledbirthdaycakes.2Atthattimeonlytheycouldaffordtocelebratewithsomethingsweet.Thatishowcakesbecameassociatedwithspecialoccasions.TheancientEgyptiansarecreditedwith"inventing"thebirthdaycelebration.AndtheancientGreeksborrowedthetraditionbutrightfullyrealizedthatadessertwouldmakethecelebrationmoremeaningful.Sotheybakedmoon-shapedcakestoofferuptothemoon.3Itwasn’tjusttheancientGreekswhocelebratedwithsweetcakes.4Andit’sbelievedthattheoriginalbirthdaycakecamefromthem.Ratherthanjustcelebratingbirthdays，though，ancientRomewasknownforcelebratingallthingswithacake
