41、，故选 A。 2.细节理解题。 文章的第三段 Rhinos 部分 “The Rhino horn is a highly prized item for Asian medicine.”和最后一段提到“The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing, with only 20 to 30 still alive.

43、容可知文章主要是讲述这些野生动物灭绝或处于危险中的原因。故选 C。 B 【答案】5-8 DCBC 【解析】本文为记叙文。本文主要说明了作者喜爱音乐的原因，并介绍了音乐在人们交流 和抒发情感方面的作用。 5.推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，作者非常喜欢音乐，认为没有它简直活不下去， 另一个原因是通过音乐可以和其他人交流， 在音乐的帮助下分享我们所拥有的。 接着下文对 此进行了较详细的说明。由此可推断出本文主要介绍了作者喜欢音乐的原因。故选 D。 6.词义猜测题。 根据画线词前文 “the use of music as a communication tool has been kept by
44、human beings for thousands of years.” 可知， 音乐作为一种交流工具已经被人类使用了数千年。 再根据划线的词语所在的句子可知，此处是说，这（音乐）可以追溯到人类最初的时代，也 可以追溯到世界的开端。由此可得知，下文是对音乐的发展过程的介绍。从而可判断出划线 词 this 指的是音乐。所以 C 正确。 7.推理判断题。 作者在举例前的一句 “I told him that this can date back to the original time, and to the very beginning of the world.

47、 D 选项（当人们听着快乐的音乐，而 不是静静地坐着）符合上下文语境，故选 D。 2.空格后文：手术后，它有助于减轻疼痛。一项对 73 项研究的分析证实，在手术前、 手术中或手术后听音乐可以降低焦虑和疼痛水平，从而减少止痛药的使用。由此可知，本句 是在说明手术前听音乐可以缓解焦虑。故 G 选项（手术前听音乐已被证明可以缓解焦虑。 ） 符合上下文语境，故选 G。 3.空格后文：研究发现，当你跑步、骑自行车或走路时，听音乐能让你走得更远。音乐 可以缓解你的不适，激励你坚持下去。由此可知，运动时听音乐更能让人坚持下去，走得更 远，打消放弃的念头。故 F 选项（音乐能让你打消放弃锻炼的念头）符合上下文
48、语境，故 选 F。 4.空格上文： 音乐有助于睡眠。 睡前听音乐可以帮助你更快入睡， 减少夜间醒来的次数。 由此可知，音乐有助于睡眠质量的提高，那么结果就是人们早上醒来会感到更放松。故 A 选项（在这种情况下，你会在早上感到更放松）符合上下文语境，故选 A。 5.空格上文： 科学家们已经反复证明， 当有音乐响起时， 人们会觉得等待的时间变短了。 商家利用这一点，在商场播放音乐，从而让你待得更久，花得更多。再根据空格后半句“后 文 grocery sales increase by 38 percent.”可知，在酒吧和餐厅播放的音乐如果是舒缓的，那么 人们会停留更久，消费得更多，从而导致杂货店的销售额会增加 38%。故 B 选项符合上下 文语境。
