【答案】

(3)D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者去达拉斯寻找实习机会,并从中学到了很多。
(1)考查细节理解。
根据第二段中的"IoverheardthatStubHub,abigcompanyfromagreatcity,SanFrancisco,wasthrowingapartynextdoortomyhotel.Ithoughtiflcouldgetaninternship,"可知,作者无意中听到来自旧金山的一家大公司在自己所住酒店的隔壁开派对,她在想自己能否在那家公司得到一个实习的机会,因此,2011年作者去达拉斯是为了寻找一个实习机会,故选D。
(2)考查细节理解。
根据最后一段中的"ByleavingTexas,Ilearnedthatitissomuchmorerewardingtotrytheunfamiliarthantostayinthecomfortable."可知,作者认识到尝试不熟悉的东西比呆在舒适区更有意义,也就是说作者从这个经历中学到的最大的教训是跳出舒适区是有意义的,故选B。
(3)考查推理判断。
根据第三段中的"Iwasn'tinvitedtotheStubHubparty.ButyouknowI'mthetypeofpersonwhogoesforsomethingshewants."可知,作者没有被邀请参加派对,但她是那种追求她想要的东西的人,由此可见作者很坚定,再根据"Icrashedthepartyandfoundmywaytothepresident.Ikindlyintroducedmyselfandthenaskediftheyhadalegalinternshipprogram."可知,作者闯进派对,直接找到董事长进行自我介绍并问是否有实习项目,由此可见作者很大胆,综合以上两方面可知作者是坚定和大胆的,故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,考生需要准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了生物学家 CarlJones通过人工繁殖的方式是濒临灭绝的鸟类的数量逐渐增加,并且因此获得了2016年的印第安的波利斯奖。
(1)考查词义猜测。
第二段中的“forhis40yearsofworkinMauritius,wherehesavedanendangeredkestrelfrombecomingthenextGreatAuk.”是对前面句子的补充说明,再由“wonthe2016IndianapolisPrize”可推知,这里的accolade与获奖有关,故选C。
(2)考查推理判断。
根据第二段中的“wherehesavedanendangeredkestrelfrombecomingthenextGreatAuk”可知,他保护了濒临灭绝的红隼,使他免于遭受GreatAuk的情况,因此可知GreatAuk是一种已经灭绝的鸟类,选B。
(3)考查推理判断。
根据第四段中的“Adecadelater,thenumberofMauritiuskestrelshadsoaredtoover300andtodaytherearearound400inthewild. ”可知红隼的数量已经开始增加了,所以推断出人工繁殖的方法很有效,故选A。
(4)考查细节理解。
根据第一段“Abiologistoncecriticizedforstealingeggsfromthenestsoftherarestbirdintheworldhasbeenawardedthe"NobelPrize"ofconservationafterhismethodssavedninespeciesfromextinction.”;以及倒数第二段中的“Inthe1970stherewasfierceoppositiontothecaptivebreedingtechniques,withcriticsarguingthattheyweretooriskyandtooktheemphasisoffbreedinginthewild.”可知Jones教授从稀有鸟类的巢穴中取出鸟蛋的行为被一些人批评,故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,同时根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,从而选出正确答案。
