A.Onlymonkeysandhumanscanhavethesenseoffairnessintheworld.
B.Womenwillshowmoredissatisfactionthanmenwhenunfairlytreated.
C.Inthewild,monkeysareneverunhappytosharetheirfoodwitheachother.
D.Monkeyscanexchangecucumbersforgrapes,forgrapesaremoreattractive.
答案解析：
答案为B。
本题为推断题，考生需通读全文进行推断。
本文讲述了当受到不公平待遇的时候，每个人都会生气，包括动物。
但是雌性的动物比雄性的动物更加在意不公平的待遇，研究中用猴子作为实验来证明这一点。
文章中第二段“Aboveall,likefemalehumanbeings,theytendtopaymuchcloserattentiontothevalueof“goodsandservices”thanmales.”与第三段“SuchcharacteristicsmakethemperfectsubjectsforDoctorBrosnan’sstudy.”都有此表达，故答案为B“当受到不公平待遇的时候，女性比男性更加不满”。
从最后一段“Refusingasmallerrewardcompletelymakesthesefeelingscleartootheranimalsofthegroup.However,whethersuchasenseoffairnessdevelopedindependentlyinmonkeysandhumans,orwhetheritcomesfromthecommonrootsthattheyhad35millionyearsago,is,asyet,anunansweredquestion.”中可知，independently（独立）对应A选项中的only，whether…or…anunansweredquestion（是否…或者…未知的问题）的表达方式与A选项的意思“只有猴子与人类才具有公平意识”不同，故A选项是错误的。
从第三段“Normally,themonkeyswerehappyenoughtoexchangepiecesofrockforpiecesofcucumber.However,whentwomonkeyswereplacedinseparateandconnectedrooms,sothateachothercouldobservewhattheotherisgettinginreturnforitsrock,theybecamequitedifferent.”可知，猴子乐意用石块交换黄瓜，但是当看到另外一只猴子因为石块得到的回报，态度就不一样了。
因此C选项“猴子从不会不高兴彼此分享食物”与该句意思不符。
从第四段首句“Intheworldofmonkeys，grapesareexcellentgoods（andmuchpreferabletocucumbers）.”中注意“excellent（极好的）”与“preferable（更好的）”两词，与D选项“forgrapesaremoreattractive（更具有吸引力的）”意思不一致。
综上分析，A,C,D都不符合文章意思。
2.Theunderlinedstatement“itisalltoomonkey”meansthat________.
A.monkeysarealsoangrywithlazyfellows
B.feelingbitteratunfairnessisalsomonkey’snature
C.monkeys,likehumans,tendtobeenviousofeachother
D.noanimalsotherthanmonkeyscandevelopsuchfeelings
答案解析：
答案为B。
本题为句意推断题。
结合文章第一段中“alltoohuman”前面的内容是说当得知别人懒惰却加薪更多的时候，人人都会生气，这是人的本能。
接下来提到的“itisalltoomonkey”也是表达“猴子受到不公平待遇的时候感到痛苦也是猴子的本能。
”的意思。
故答案为B。
A选项“猴子对懒惰的同伴也会生气”,C选项“猴子像人类一样会彼此嫉妒”,D选项“除了猴子没有其他的动物会有那种感觉”都与文章意思不符。
3.Femalemonkeysofthiskindarechosenfortheresearchmostprobablybecausetheyare___.
A.morelikelytoweighwhattheyget
B.attentivetoresearchers’instructions
C.niceinbothappearanceandbehaviors
D.morereadytohelpothersthantheirmalecompanions
答案解析：
答案为A。
本题为细节推理题。
从文章中第二段“Aboveall,likefemalehumanbeings,theytendtopaymuchcloserattentiontothevalueof“goodsandservices”thanmales.”与第三段“SuchcharacteristicsmakethemperfectsubjectsforDoctorBrosnan’sstudy.”可知，雌性的猴子作为实验是因为她们比雄性的猴子更加关注“物品与服务”的价值。
A选项“她们更有可能掂量（weigh）她们得到的”,与上述分析意思一致，故答案为A。
B和D在文章中都未提到；C并不是根本的原因。
4.WhichofthefollowingconclusionsisTRUEaccordingtothepassage?
A.Humanbeings'feelingsofangeraredevelopedfromthemonkeys.
B.Intheresearch,malemonkeysarelesslikelytoexchangefoodwithothers.
C.Co-operationbetweenmonkeysstaysfirmbeforetherealizationofbeingcheated.
D.Onlymonkeysandhumanshavethesenseoffairnesswhichdatesbackto35millionyearsago.
答案解析：
答案为C。
本题为细节理解题。
从文章最后一段“Suchco-operationislikelytobefirmonlywheneachanimalfeelsitisnotbeingcheated.”可知，只有当每个动物感觉没有被欺骗的时候合作的态度才是坚定的”,C选项的意思“意识到被欺骗之前猴子之间的合作非常坚定”与上述分析一致。
解答此题注意同义句的转换表达。
A,B,D与文章意思不符合。
5.WhatcanweinferaboutthemonkeysinSarah’sstudy?
A.Themonkeyscanbetrainedtodevelopsocialsenses.
B.Theyusuallyshowtheirfeelingsopenlyashumansdo.
C.Themonkeysmayshowtheirsatisfactionwithequaltreatment.
D.Co-operationamongthemonkeysremainseffectiveinthewild.
答案解析：
答案为C。
本题为推断题。
文章中说，猴子受到不公平待遇的时候会生气，这句话的意思就是C选项的表达“猴子受到公平待遇的时候会满意”，故答案为C。
解答此题仍然要注意推理题设置的技巧：
用不同的表达方式来表达同样的意思。
从文章最后一段“Theresearchessuggestthatthesemonkeys,likehumans,areguidedbysocialsenses.Inthewild,theyareco-operativeandgroup-living.”可知，猴子自身就有社会意识，而不是通过训练获得，故A错误。
B，D在文章中未提及。
