2024年四川高三一模考试英语试题和解析(2024年四川高三八省联考)(4)

24.推理判断题。根据第二段“The outbreak of World War II resulted in a national shortage of chemists and scientists. In spite of the fact that she was still a student and a woman, she was offered a job as a chemical analyst due to her talents, producing explosives(爆炸物)for the wartime effort. She put her degree on hold and moved to Ohio, taking on the dangerous job of analyzing unstable chemicals to produce weapons.(第二次世界大战的爆发导致全国化学家和科学家短缺。尽管她仍然是一名学生而且是一名女性，但由于她的才能，她获得了一份化学分析师工作，为战时生产炸药。她暂时搁置了学位，搬到了俄亥俄州，从事分析不稳定化学物质以生产武器的危险工作。”以及第四段的第一、二句“Her experience with propellants meant that when NAA was tasked to find a fuel capable of lifting the redesigned Redstone missiles into space, Mogan was appointed technical lead on the project. National pride was on the line, so Morgan set about investigating fuels. (她在推进剂方面的经验意味着，当NAA的任务是找到一种能够将重新设计的Redstone导弹送入太空的燃料时，莫根被任命为该项目的技术负责人。民族自豪感岌岌可危，于是摩根着手研究燃料。)”可知Mary工作重心是随着国内需求的变化而转移。故选C。

25. 词义猜测题。根据第三段“After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics, moving to California to work for NAA(North American Aviation). The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants(推进剂)and designing speciality fuels to work with different engines. (战争结束后，对炸药的需求下降了，所以她转到aeronautics领域，到加利福尼亚为北美航空公司工作。作为900名工程师中唯一的女性，她很快被提升到一个涉及计算火箭推进剂性能和设计用于不同引擎的特殊燃料的职位。)”以及最后一段第一句“Hydyne tested well with the Redstone missiles and subsequently other aircraft(飞行器), such as Jupiter-C rockets, proving to be a quick solution to getting to space without a total rocket redesign. (Hydyne在Redstone导弹和随后的其他飞行器上测试良好，如Jupiter-C 火箭，证明是一个快速进入太空的解决方案，而无需全面重新设计火箭。)”可知Mary Sherman Morgan进入的是航空航天领域，所以D选项“Designing and building aircraft(设计和制造航天器)”符合词义。故选D。

26.细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants(推进剂)and designing speciality fuels to work with different engines. (作为900名工程师中唯一的女性，她很快被提升到一个涉及计算火箭推进剂性能和设计用于不同引擎的特殊燃料的职位。)”和第四段第一句“Her experience with propellants meant that when NAA was tasked to find a fuel capable of lifting the redesigned Redstone missiles into space, Mogan was appointed technical lead on the project.(她在推进剂方面的经验意味着，当NAA的任务是找到一种能够将重新设计的Redstone导弹送入太空的燃料时，莫根被任命为该项目的技术负责人。)”可知是在燃料方面的专业知识让Mary成为NAA项目的技术负责人。故选C。

27.推理判断题。根据第二段的最后一句“She put her degree on hold and moved to Ohio, taking on the dangerous job of analyzing unstable chemicals to produce weapons.(她暂时搁置了学位，搬到了俄亥俄州，从事分析不稳定化学物质以生产武器的危险工作。)”和第四段的最后一句“After countless trails, she finally designed her own mixture, which was named Hydyne.(经过无数次的尝试，她终于设计了自己的混合物，并命名为Hydyne。)”可知Mary勇敢且具有创造性。故选B。

28--31. BCAB

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。因为与饮食相关的人类咬合变化导致了目前世界上一半的语言都有新的语音，文章阐述了这一趋势产生的方式和原因。

28.细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“A ground-breaking, five-year study shows that diet-related changes in human bite led to new speech sounds that are now found in half the world’s languages. (一项为期五年的突破性研究表明，人类与饮食相关的咬痕变化导致了新的语音，如今在世界上一半的语言中都发现了这种语音)”，最后一段“This research overturns the popular view that all human speech sounds were present when human beings evolved around 300,000 years ago. (这项研究推翻了一种流行的观点，即人类在大约30万年前进化时，所有的语音都存在)”可知，本文中提到的研究是关于人类语音的变化。故选B项。

29.推理判断题。根据第三段“They discovered that the upper and lower front teeth of ancient human adults were aligned (对齐), making it hard to produce labiodentals, which are formed by touching the lower lip to the upper teeth. Later, our jaws changed to an overbite structure (结构), making it easier to produce such sounds. (他们发现，古人类的上门牙和下门牙是对齐的，因此很难产生唇齿音，唇齿音是通过下唇接触上牙齿而形成的。后来，我们的下颚变成了覆盖咬合结构，更容易发出这样的声音。)”可知，因为古代成年人因为上下门牙是对齐的，他们的下颚结构跟现在的我们不一样，这就导致他们发不出这个唇齿音，也就是说他们的下颚结构使他们很难发出唇齿音。故选C项。
