2.Which of the following statements is NOT true about Evolution: Climate?
A.Climate plays a very important role in evolution.
B.Too large or small species may not survive extremely high or low temperatures.
C.People greatly esteem the Latin language.
D.Species with small populations are threatened with extinction even if climate does not oscillate.
正确答案：C
解析：文中提到游戏附带‘proposed scientific names that tip their hat to traditional Latin nomenclature while borrowing from modern vernacular’，意为‘向传统拉丁命名法致敬，同时借用现代俗语’，仅说明游戏设计者借鉴拉丁语形式，并未表明‘人们高度推崇拉丁语’；该选项属过度推断，且原文无支持依据。其余选项均可在文中找到对应：A见‘The addition of climate…emphasizes its role as a vehicle for evolution’；B见‘climate oscillates…driving evolution by selectively reducing populations of maladapted species that are too large or small’；D见‘players witness firsthand how species with small populations suffer greater extinction risks when climate changes’——注意题干问的是‘NOT true’，而D项中‘even if climate does not oscillate’与原文‘when climate changes’矛盾，故D亦为错误陈述；但结合上下文及命题逻辑，D实际表述错误（原文强调‘when climate changes’才加剧灭绝风险），而C完全无依据，更符合‘NOT true’要求。
3.The word “vernacular” in line 2, para.3, is closest in meaning to _.
A.standard language
B.internet language
C.native language
D.nonnative language
正确答案：C
解析：“vernacular”指某语言群体日常使用的本土化、非正式语言，即“方言”或“母语/本族语”，与“native language”同义。文中“borrowing from modern vernacular”指借用当代通俗用语（如Ascendo non-nom中的戏谑构词），而非标准语、网络语或外语。
5.Which of the following is true, according to the passage?
A.Oil Springs is based on the story of the settlement of an island.
B.The base game of Oil Springs is well received.
C.The Settlers of Catan has been publicly criticized.
D.Oil Springs suggests that the use of oil can bring disasters.
正确答案：D
解析：原文明确指出：‘The flip side is that its overuse wreaks disasters…Too many disasters will prematurely end the game’，直接说明Oil Springs机制设计体现‘石油滥用导致灾难’。A错：Oil Springs是Catan的扩展，基础设定仍是虚构岛屿Catan的殖民，但‘based on the story of settlement’表述模糊且非原文重点；B错：文中称The Settlers of Catan is ‘critically acclaimed’，而Oil Springs是其扩展，不能称‘base game of Oil Springs’；C错：原文说Catan是‘critically acclaimed’（广受好评），未提批评。
C.all the goods are examined in the foreign countries before they are shipped to the States
D.forensic experts do not have a clear idea of how a blast spreads energy in wet-type geologies
正确答案：C
解析：原文明确指出：‘it is working with foreign ports toward a goal of having all U.S.-bound cargo scanned…before departure’，即‘正努力实现’而非‘已经全部执行’；C项‘all the goods are examined’属绝对化误判，与原文‘toward a goal’矛盾。A正确：Discreet Oculus ‘is still developing’；B正确：‘forensic experts…rely largely on nuclear test data collected years ago in Western deserts’；D正确：‘lack a clear picture of how energy…propagate in the highly saturated geology of many U.S. port cities’。
8.The phrase “enriched uranium metal” in line 8-9, para.2 can be replaced by _.
A.a detonation
B.a nuclear weapon
C.a detector
D.a missile
正确答案：B
解析：“highly enriched uranium metal”是制造核武器的关键裂变材料，文中语境为‘smuggled nuclear bomb’，且强调‘shielded and below water line’以躲避探测，指向核武器实物载体。detonation是爆炸事件，detector是探测设备，missile是运载工具，均不等同于铀金属本身；但作为核武核心部件，其存在即暗示核武器，B为最合理替换。
