【答案】E；A；D；B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了一些人喜欢以冒险为乐趣。

（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空前“Andourpleasureisgreaterbecauseweliveacomfortableandincreasinglyrisk-freelife,wherethegreatesttestofenduranceisgettingtoworkthroughtherushhour.”我们过着一种舒适的、越来越没有风险的生活，和后面的转折可知，我们大多数人都希望保持这种舒适的状态。

故选E。

（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空前“Yearslater,expertsdiscoveredthatLynnehasatotallyevenlayerofbodyfat,likeaseal.”可知，琳·考克斯就像海豹一样脂肪层完全均匀，似乎天生就适合做她所做的事情。

故选A。

（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空后“SirFienneshassaid,"IfIamgettingsick,Ifindaverypowerfulwayofconqueringitistoknowthatmyfatherwouldhavedefinitelydoneit."费因斯爵士曾说过：

“如果我生病了，我发现一种非常强大的战胜它的方法就是知道我父亲肯定会这么做。

”，从而可以推断出，很多冒险家都是为了不辜负父母的期望。

故选D。

（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空后“Thereisprobablynosuchthingasa‘normal’adventurer.”可能没有所谓的“正常”冒险家，可知，冒险家显然不同于我们其他人。

故选B。

【点评】本题要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

2．根据短文内容，在相应的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。

（1）HowdoesIndia'sIDsystemchecktheidentitiesoftheresidents?

（不多于7个单词）

（2）WhatisthefunctionofAadhaarasavaluablegovernmentplatform?

（不多于8个单词）

（3）AsforIndia'sIDsystem,whataremanypeopleconcernedabout?

（不多于1个单词）

（4）Whatisthepassagemainlyabout?

（不多于6个单词）

【答案】

（1）Byusingfingerprintsandotherbiologicalcharacteristics.

（2）Deliveringsocialwelfareprogramsandothergovernmentservices.

（3）Privacy.

（4）Makingtheworld'sinvisiblepeoplevisible.

【解析】【分析】本题是一篇说明文，世界上有10亿人没有官方身份证明，NandanNilekani一直致力于通过让世界上的"隐形人"获得官方身份证明，从而让他们变得"可见"。

（1）考查细节理解。

根据第三段中的“…leadthelaunchofIndia'snationalbiometricIDsystem,whichusesfingerprintsandotherbiologicalcharacteristicstochecktheidentities…”可知印度的身份识别系统通过指纹和其他生物特征来检查居民的身份。

因此答案为Byusingfingerprintsandotherbiologicalcharacteristics.

（2）考查细节理解。

根据第三段中的'hisIDsystem,knownasAadhaar（Hindifor"foundation"）,istheworld'slargestbiometricidentificationsystemandhasbecomeavaluablegovernmentplatformfordeliveringsocialwelfareprogramsandothergovernmentservices.’可知Aadhaar作为一个有价值的政府平台，其功能是提供社会福利项目和其他政府服务。

因此答案为Deliveringsocialwelfareprogramsandothergovernmentservices.

（3）考查细节理解。

根据第五段中的“Thereweremanyprivacyconcerns,includingcriticismthattheAadhaarsystemwasamassmonitoringtoolandthatpersonaldatawouldbemisused.”可知有很多隐私问题，包括批评Aadhaar系统是一个大规模的监控工具，个人数据会被滥用。

所以许多人们关注的问题是隐私。

故填Privacy.

（4）考查主旨大意。

通读全文和第二段中的“NandanNilekanihasbeenworkingtomaketheworld'sinvisiblepeoplevisiblebygivingthemaccesstoofficialidentification.以及最后一段中的“theworldismovingclosertothedaywheneveryonewillhaveaccesstoanofficialID.”可知本文主要讲述的是世界上有10亿人没有官方身份证明，NandanNilekani一直致力于通过让世界上的"隐形人"获得官方身份证明，从而让他们变得"可见"。

故可知Makingtheworld'sinvisiblepeoplevisible可以概括问文章主要内容，故答案为Makingtheworld'sinvisiblepeoplevisible.

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和主旨大意两个题型的考查，是一篇科研类阅读，要求考生准确掌握所给材料，结合相关的词汇知识和词汇知识，写出正确的答案。
