考查细节理解。根据文章第一段第二句“Thestudy，publishedinthejournalBiologyLetters，isthefirsttoshowthatmoodandpersonalityinteractinananimal,influencingjudgment”可知，选项D的概括符合题意。所以选项D正确。2．B 考查词义猜测。根据画线词后的“morespaceandplentyofsoft,deepstraw”可知，另一个环境很舒适。所以选项B正确。3．D 考查细节理解。根据第五段第一句“Theresearchersnextplacedanunfamiliarbowlindifferentlocations,toseehowthepigswouldreact”以及该段后两句的对比描述可知，D选项与第五段内容一致。所以选项D正确。4．C 考查推理判断。根据最后一段尤其是最后一句可推知，要想获得高质量和口感好的猪肉，人们应当满足猪的多种需要。所以选项C正确。二、单句语法填空1．(2022·北京高考)Thelittleproblems________wemeetinourdailylivesmaybeinspirationsforgreatinventions.答案：that 分析句子结构可知，空格处引导定语从句，先行词是thelittleproblems，且从句中缺少宾语，故用that。9\n2．(2022·天津高考)Myeldestson,________worktakeshimallovertheworld,isinNewYorkatthemoment.答案：whose 分析句子结构可知，此处缺少非限制性定语从句的引导词，且与其后名词存在所属关系，故应用whose。3．MrReed________(select)torepresentusinthemeetinghasbeensenttohaveatalkwiththem.答案：selected 由句子结构可知，此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语。select与其所修饰的MrReed之间为逻辑上的被动关系，因此填selected。4．Itwasclearly________(evidence)thatthecompanywasingreatdifficulties.答案：evident Itis/wasevidentthat...是常用句型，意为“很明显……”。5．Perhapsthemostdifficultchallengeishow________(survive)withoutfriendsinlife.答案：tosurvive “疑问词＋动词不定式”在本句中作表语，howtosurvive“怎么生存”。6．Idon'treallyfancy________(do)businesswithhim.答案：doing fancydoing...“想要做……”。7．Hewasseverelycriticizedand________(remove)fromhispost.答案：removed removesb.fromhispost“开除某人”，此处是被动语态，因此填removed。8．ItissaidthattheearlyEuropeanplayingcards________(design)forentertainmentandeducation.答案：weredesigned bedesignedfor“为……而设计”。9．We________(face)thedifficultytogether,butwhydidn'tyoutellme?答案：couldhavefaced 由后一分句可知，前一分句谓语应用couldhavedone结构，表示“过去我们本来可以共同面对困难”。10．Alltheworkers________(belong)tothefactorymustobeytherule.答案：belonging 由句子结构可知，此处应填belong的非谓语动词形式，workers与belongto之间为逻辑上的主谓关系。故用现在分词belongingto作后置定语。belongto无被动语态。三、完形填空“Guys,getoutofthemud!HowmanytimesdoIhavetotellyou?”I 1 thewordsangrily.Ifeltmyselfrecreatingthe 2
