25. Ryan most probably agrees that ______.
D) curiosity activates creative minds
本题问Ryan最可能同意什么观点。
A) ideas are born of a relaxing mind 观点来源于放松的大脑。
B) innovativeness could be taught 创新能够被传授。
C) decisiveness derives from fantastic ideas 果断来自于奇特的想法。
D)curiosity activates creative minds好奇心能够激活创新的头脑。
根据人名Ryan我们可以定位到最后一段,但很难从中找出与四个选项匹配的观点,不过我们注意到Ryan与Markova是business partner的关系,这两人之间的观点是一致的,由“The first thing needed for innovation is a fascination with wonder,” says Dawna Markova.我们知道Markova认为创新最需要的就是对未知事情的着迷,因此选择D)curiosity activates creative minds。
而A) ideas are born of a relaxing mind 利用文中出现的relaxing加以编制选项。B) innovativeness could be taught 虽然文中最后一段Knowing what you’re good at and doing even more of it creates excellence.”This is where developing new habits comes in. 但只是说doing even more of it creates excellence.并没有交代是本人自觉得多做,还是被“taught”的多做。C) decisiveness derives from fantastic ideas文中没有关于果断的信息。
26. In paragraph 1 and 2, the text shows PTK's ____.
A) easy availability
本题问文章的第一二两段显示了PTK的什么。[b]All he needs to do[/b] is shell out $30 for a paternity testing kit at his local drugstore—and another $120 to get the results.医学全在线www.med126.com
[b]More than 60,000[/b] people have purchased the paternity testing kits since they first became available [b]without prescriptions[/b] last year, according to Doug Fogg, chief operating officer of Identigene, which makes the [b]over-the-counter[/b] kits. [b]More than two dozen companies[/b] sell DNA tests [b]directly[/b] to the public, ranging in price from a few hundred dollars to more than $2,500. 由这些粗体All he needs to do,More than 60,000,without prescriptions(无须处方),over-the-counter(通过柜台),sell DNA tests directly to the public我们就很容易得出A) easy availability易得性(很容易得到)。
30. An appropriate title for the text is most likely to be ______.
B) DNA tests and its problems C) DNA testing outside the lab
本题问文章最有可能的标题是什么,文中对DNA testing outside the lab虽有涉及,但是but some observers are skeptical, critics also argue 这两段是大头,重点信息,说明了存在的问题,所以C不完整,此外系谱学家(genealogists)的研究也需要实验室的,文中只是交代了进行DNA测试可能出现的问题,是在实验室内外都有可能出现的问题。
