Some baboons were given the chance to watch another baboon who alread

2、y knew how to solve the task, while others had to learn for themselves. To work out how brave or anxious the baboons were, Dr. Carter presented them either with a novel food or a threat in the form of a model of a poisonous snake.She found that personality had a major impact on learning. The braver

3、baboons learnt, but the shy ones did not learn the task although they watched the baboon perform the task of finding the novel food just as long as the brave ones did. In effect, despite being made aware of what to do, they were still too shy to do what the experienced baboon did.The same held true

4、for anxious baboons compared with calm ones. The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not, even though they spent more time watching.This mismatch between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a key role in social

5、learning in animals, something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things. The findings are significant because they suggest that animals may perform poorly in cognitive (认知的) tasks not because they arent clever enough to solve them, but because they are too shy or

6、 nervous to use the social information. The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning. If some individuals are unable to get information from others because they dont associate with the knowledgeable individuals, or they are too shy to use th

7、e information once they have it, information may not travel between all group members, preventing the formation of a culture based on social learning. 259. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. The design of Dr. Carters research.B. The results of Dr. Carters research.C. The purpose of Dr. Car

8、ters research.D. The significance of Dr. Carters research.60. According to the research, which baboons are more likely to complete a new learning task?A. Those that have more experience.B. Those that can avoid potential risks.C. Those that like to work independently.D. Those that feel anxious about

Some baboons observe others but dont follow them.D. Some baboons perform new tasks but dont concentrate.62. Dr.

10、Carters findings indicate that our culture might be formed through _.A. storing information B. learning from each other C. understanding different people D. travelling between social groups 【考点】考察科普知识类阅读【文章大意】本文通过叙述 Dr. Alecia Carter在狒狒身上进行的一项研究显示动物的性格在社会化的学习中起着很重要的作用。同样人类也与此相似，我们的文化的形成正是通过交换信息等社会学习

11、活动。59. 【答案】A 【试题解析】段落大意题。根据第一段 2,3,4行 Dr. Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology, Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food hidden in a box. Some baboons were given the chance to 3watch another baboon who already knew how to solve the task, while

12、others had to learn for themselves.可知本段主要描述他进行的这项研究的设计方案，也就是他在这项研究里是如何做的。故 A正确。60. 【答案】D 【试题解析】细节题。根据第三段第 2句 The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not, even though they spent more time watching.可知那些很焦虑的急切想学习的狒狒学得更快，更好。而那些害羞的狒狒却没有能够做到。故 D正确。61. 【

13、答案】C 【试题解析】推理题。根据第三段 The same held true for anxious baboons compared with calm ones. The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not, even though they spent more time watching.可知一些狒狒虽然观察了很长时间，但是并没有采取行动。这一错位说明性格在动物的社会行为中起着很重要的作用。第四段里的 mismatch就是指第三段最后一

14、句 while those who were relaxed did not, even though they spent more time watching.的内容。故 C正确。62. 【答案】B 【试题解析】推理题。根据文章最后一段第一句 The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning可知人们是通过社会学习来理解我们文化的组成的。也就是说人们需要相互交换信息，相互学习。故 B正确。【长难句解析】1.Working with a

15、group of baboons (狒狒) in the Namibian desert, Dr. Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology, Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food hidden in a box.【翻译】和一群狒狒在纳米比亚的沙漠里工作的来自剑桥大学的动物学博士 Alecia Carter给狒狒们设定了一个涉及到新奇食品和很熟悉的放在盒子里的食品的学习任务。【分析】本句中的现在分词短语 Wo

16、rking with a group of baboons (狒狒) in the Namibian desert在句中做为状语，因为动词 work与句子主语 Dr. Alecia Carter构成主动关系。同时现在分词短语 involving a novel food and a familiar food hidden in a 4box作为定语修饰前面的名词 learning tasks。2. This mismatch between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a ke

17、y role in social learning in animals, something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things.【翻译】这种收集信息和使用信息的错位说明性格在动物的社会性学习方面起着关键的作用，这是在关于动物如何学习的之前的研究中被忽略的问题。【分析】本句中的动词 show后面含有一个 that引导的宾语从句 that personality plays a key role in social learning in animals, something

18、 that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things。这个宾语从句中 something就指 personality plays a key role in social learning in animals这一点。Something后面是一个定语从句 that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things。修饰先行词 something。五、The behaviour of a build

19、ings users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use, according to new research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC). The UK promises to reduce its carbon emissions (排放）by 80 percent by 2050, part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by 2016

20、. But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own though extremely important- is not enough to achieve such reductions: the behaviour of the people using the building has to change too.The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignore

21、d by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency (效率)，which instead focus on architectural and technological developments.Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior researcher， consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most ca

22、reful design. In other words，old habits die hard, even in the best-designed eco-home.Another part of the problem is information. Households and bill-payers dont have the knowledge they need to change their energy-use habits. Without 5specific information，its hard to estimate the costs and benefits o

23、f making different choices. Feedback (反馈） facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors，could help bridge this information gap by helping people see how changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; some studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings

24、 using smart meters.Social science research has added a further dimension (方面） ，suggesting that individualsbehaviour in the home can be personal and cannot be predicted 一 whether people throw open their windows rather than turn down the thermostat (恒温器) , for example. Janda argues that education is

25、the key. She calls for a focused programme to teach people about buildings and their own behaviour in them.66. As to energy use, the new research from UKERC stresses the importance of_.A. zero-carbon homes B. the behaviour of building usersC. sustainable building design D. the reduction of carbon em

26、issions67. The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to”_.”A. the ways B. their homesC. developments D. existing efforts68. What are Katy Jandas words mainly about?A. The importance of changing building users, habits.B. The necessity of making a careful building design.C. The variety of cons

27、umption patterns of building users.D. The role of technology in improving energy efficiency. 69. The information gap in energy use _. A. can be bridged by feedback facilitiesB. affects the study on energy monitorsC. brings about problems for smart metersD. will be caused by building users old habits

28、70. What does the dimension added by social science research suggest?6A. The social science research is to be furthered.B. The education programme is under discussion.C. The behaviour of building users is unpredictable.D. The behaviour preference of building users is similar.【考点】考察科普知识类短文【文章大意】UKERC

29、 的研究发现居民的行为和房屋的设计在节能方面同样的重要。文章号召我们要注意自己的行为切实注意环保节能。66. 【答案】B 【试题解析】细节题。根据文章 1,2行 The behaviour of a buildings users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use, according to new research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC).居民的行为和房屋的设计在节能方面同样的重要。这是 UKERC的研究的结果。所以如果我们

30、要想达到节能的目的，我们必须要注意使用者的行为。故 B正确。67. 【答案】D 【试题解析】推理题。根据本段 The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency (效率)，which instead focus on architectural and technological developments.可知：这个研究说明人们现在提高能源使用效率的努力

31、忽视了使用者的行为，却把太多的注意力集中到了房屋的设计和技术的发展方面。故本句中的which是指 existing efforts。故 D正确。68. 【答案】A 【试题解析】推理题。根据文章第三段Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,和consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design. In other words，old habits die hard, even in the best-desig

32、ned eco-home.可知技术是可以给我们带来帮助，但是它不能解决所有的问题。房屋使用者的使用行为可以让最细心的设计都失去效果。本句说明 Katy Janda认为房屋使用者的习惯很重要。故 A正确。69. 【答案】A 【试题解析】细节题。根据第四段 3,4行 Feedback (反馈） facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors，could help bridge this information gap by helping 7people see how changing their behaviour directly affe

33、cts their energy use可知Feedback facilities可以 bridge the information gap。故 A正确。70. 【答案】C 【试题解析】细节题。根据最后一段 1,2行 Social science research has added a further dimension (方面） ，suggesting that individualsbehaviour in the home can be personal and cannot be predicted可知很多家庭的个人行为是很难预测的。故C正确。【长难句解析】1.The behavio

34、ur of a buildings users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use【翻译】当涉及到使用能源的时候，房屋使用者的行为和房屋的设计至少是同样地重要。【分析】本句中含有一个倍数表达法 as important as；本题是一个原级的比较。倍数表达法是高中英语教学的重点，当我们要表达甲是乙的几倍时，通常用句型来表示：1. “A+倍数+形容词或副词的比较+than+B” ，表示“A 比 B大（长、高、宽等）多少倍” 。如：This rope is twice longer than

35、that one. 2.“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B” ，表示“A 正好是 B的多少倍” 。如：Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亚洲的面积是欧洲的四倍。3“A+the size/height/length/width， etc+of+B”，表示“A 正好是B的多少倍” 。如：This street is four times the length of that one.4.“times+what+从句” 。如 The production is now three times what it was ten years ago.8
