答案与解析

1.D细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Ridleycallshimselfarationaloptimist—rational,becausehe'scarefullyweighedtheevidence;optimistic,becausethatevidenceshowshumanprogress...”Ridley自称是一个理性的乐观主义者,所谓理性是因为他仔细权衡证据;所谓乐观是因为这些证据表明人类进步是不可避免的,而且也是十分美好的。这就是他在近期的一本书当中以全新的视角向人们证明的主题。故此处D项正确。

2.A推理判断题。根据第一个小标题题目“Shoppingfuelsinvention”以及其内容最后一句“Themorewespecializeandexchange,thebetteroffwe'llbe.”可知,购物刺激发明创造,刺激消费,促进生产,这种情况越多,我们将会越富有。故此处A项正确。

3.D细节理解题。从第二个标题内容可知,我们生活远比以前富裕,健康,长寿,人也长得高了,也比以前聪明了,其中一个原因是我们人类的四种基本需求——衣,食,住,行比以前便宜了很多。因此以油灯和蜡烛为例进一步阐述,故此处D项正确。

4.B推理判断题。由文章最后一句可知,如果气候变化证明是轻微的,然而降低二氧化碳会引起麻烦,那么很可能会发现我们用止血带缠绕脖子以此止住鼻血。此处暗指对气候变化的过度反应存在危险。故B项正确。
