【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。
主要讲述了塑料污染对海洋导致的影响。
(1)细节理解题。
根据第一段第三句:
AndJulieAndersenofthePlasticOceansFoundationsayswhatweseeisjustthetipoftheproblem.可知,塑料海洋基金会的朱莉·安德森说,我们看到的只是问题的冰山一角。
故可推测塑料对海洋的污染比我们所看到的更严重,故选D。
(2)词义猜测题。
根据Thepiecesoftheplasticgarbageinfectthefoodchain,sometimesvisibly,andmoresoatthemicroscopiclevel,wheretheplasticparticlesinteractwithotherpollutants."Thereareheavymetals,medicines,industrialwasteinthesea,whileitactslikemagnets(磁铁).可知,塑料垃圾碎片在微观层面感染食物链,有时是明显的,塑料颗粒与其他污染物相互作用.海洋中有重金属,药物,工业废物,使其像磁铁一样.it指代的是塑料颗粒。
故选B。
(3)推理判断题。
根据ButAndersensaysthereismorethatpeoplecando."Cutbackonsingle-useplastics,straws,plasticcups,plasticwaterbottles,plasticbagsandfindalternativeslikereusablematerials."Shesayshealthyoceansareessentialtooursurvival.可知,安德森说人们还可以做更多事情来预防污染,可推测出安德森对于目前解决塑料问题所做的工作不满意。
故选C。
(4)主旨大意题。
阅读全文,根据文章内容可知,本文主要讲述了塑料污染海洋灾害。
故选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测,推理判断和主旨大意四个题型的考查,是一篇说明类阅读,要求考生先从问题中抓住关键性词语(题眼),然后以此为线索,运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的:

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了自动洗碗机的历史由来。
(1)考查推理判断。
根据第一段中的“Whatshedidmindwasthatherservantsbrokethedishes.Shehostedquiteafewdinnerparties,andaftereverypartytheservantsbrokemoreofherexpensivedishes.”她所介意的是她的仆人打破了餐具。
她举办了几次宴会,每次宴会之后,仆人们都打破了她昂贵的餐具。
为了避免打破她的餐具,后来JosephineCochrane发明了自动洗碗机,故选B。
(2)考查句义猜测。
根据第三段中的“JosephineCochrane'sfriendswereimpressedwiththemachineandaskedhertobuildmore.”JosephineCochrane的朋友们对这台机器印象深刻,并要求她建造更多;以及“Soonhotelandrestaurantownerswhodidn'tlikebrokendishesalsowereinterested. ”不久,不喜欢打破餐具的酒店和餐馆老板也对这个机器感兴趣。
根据划线句子的前后两句可以推断JosephineCochrane发明自动洗碗机的消息传播的很快,也就表明了Theinventiondrewimmediateattentionofthepublic这项发明立即引起了公众的注意。
故选D。
(3)考查细节理解。
根据最后一段中的“Salesofthehomemodelfinallypickedupinthe1950swhenpeoplehadmoremoneyandwantedtohavemoretimetoenjoythemselves.”在20世纪50年代,当人们有更多的钱,希望有更多的时间来享受时,这种家用模式的销售终于恢复了。
也就是人们的生活条件提高了,自动洗碗机才流行起来,故选A。
(4)考查细节理解。
根据最后一段中的“Nowmanyhomeshaveelectricdishwashersthataren'tverydifferentfromtheoneJosephineCochraneinventedmorethan100yearsago.”现在,许多家庭都有电动洗碗机,与100多年前JosephineCochrane发明的洗碗机没有太大的不同,因此现代洗碗机和JosephineCochrane发明的洗碗机几乎一样,故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,句义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查,是一篇科技类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,并根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,从而选出正确答案。
