It's funny, isn't it? Babies can't do anything but eat, cry,
and stop us from sleeping at night. But we think they're very
cute, and we want to do everything for them!
OK, so babies look cute with their fat legs and arms and
their big round eyes. But it's not only how they look that makes
them cute. It's also the things they do.
When babies learn to speak and walk, we find them cute.
This is partly because they make mistakes. They say the wrong
word or say a word in a funny way. Think of a little baby
learning to walk—lots and lots of mistakes!
But mistakes aren't always cute. Think about it. You ask a
friend to dinner. He gets food on his face and orange juice on
your kitchen table. You're not happy. But a baby does the same
thing, and you think it's cute.
Babies' mistakes are cute because they are young and
helpless. We humans know our babies can't survive without our
help.
Like all living things, babies grow up—they get bigger! Do
they stop being cute? Maybe a little. But kids, adults(成年人),
and older adults can still be cute.
Small children often play at being adults—they dress up in
adults' clothes or put on makeup or do adult things, like "being a
doctor" or "teaching school".
Parents can be cute too. When we see the love between a
parent and child, our minds tell us that's cute!
And then there are cute old people. What makes them cute?
Often, it's their behaviour. Older people sometimes do funny
things. They are like young people. They show that they're in
love, they start new sports, or they like to use modern things
like computers or smartphones.
Older people are also cute because they are a little like
babies. They can be innocent, and they often need more help
than younger people. Again, something in our mind tells us to
protect them.
24. Why do people think babies are cute?
A. Because they can speak clearly and walk fast.
B. Because they have lovely looks and helpless behaviours.
C. Because they can survive without any help.
D. Because they often get food on their faces and arms.
25. What example does the writer give to show that older people
can be cute?
A. Older people always stay at home and watch TV.
B. Older people do funny things like showing love or starting
new sports.
C. Older people often help young people with their problems.
D. Older people usually read a lot of books in their free time.
26. What does the underlined word "innocent" in the last paragraph
probably mean?
A. Behaving like an adult. B. Having qualities of a child.
C. Being very tall and strong. D. Never making mistakes.
27. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Babies are the cutest living things in the world.
B. People should take care of babies and children.
C. People of all ages can be cute in their own ways.
D. Adults should learn from babies and older people.

答案
三、阅读理解B
【文章大意】本文是说明文,阐述了婴儿、小孩、父母和老年人可爱的原因,说明各个年龄段的人都有自己可爱的一面。
24. B 细节理解题。根据"OK,so babies look cute ... But it's not only how they look that makes them cute.It's also the things they do."和"Babies' mistakes are cute because they are young and helpless."可知,人们认为婴儿可爱是因为他们有可爱的外表和无助的行为。故选B。
25. B 细节理解题。根据"And then there are cute old people.What makes them cute ... Older people sometimes do funny things ... They show that they're in love,they start new sports ..."可知,作者通过举例说明老年人会做些滑稽的事情,比如表达爱意或开始新的体育运动来展示老年人是可爱的。故选B。
26. B 词义猜测题。根据"Older people are also cute because they are a little like babies.They can be innocent,and they often need more help than younger people."可知,说老年人像婴儿,所以"innocent"应是有孩子般的特质。故选B。
27. C 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章分别阐述了婴儿、小孩、父母和老年人可爱的原因,说明各个年龄段的人都有自己可爱的一面。故选C。

解析
【分析】
这是一篇介绍不同年龄段人群可爱特质的说明文，解题时可按照不同题型的对应思路逐一突破：1. 细节理解题先圈出题干关键词，带着关键词回原文定位对应段落，将选项和原文内容逐一比对，直接排除和原文表述矛盾的干扰项；2. 词义猜测题要结合单词前后的上下文语境，通过前文给出的类比线索推导词义；3. 主旨大意题需要通读全文，梳理各段落核心内容，选择能覆盖全文所有分论点的选项，排除只对应局部段落的片面选项。比如第24题问婴儿可爱的原因，直接定位原文描述婴儿的段落，找到“不仅外表可爱，行为也可爱”“年幼无助”的表述，就能快速匹配正确选项。
【解析】
24. 细节理解题：根据原文第二段“OK, so babies look cute with their fat legs and arms and their big round eyes. But it's not only how they look that makes them cute. It's also the things they do.”以及第五段“Babies' mistakes are cute because they are young and helpless.”可知，人们觉得婴儿可爱是因为他们有可爱的外表和无助的行为。A选项“能清晰说话、走得很快”和原文“婴儿正在学习说话走路”表述矛盾；C选项“不需要任何帮助就能存活”和原文“没有人类帮助婴儿无法存活”表述矛盾；D选项“经常把食物弄到脸上胳膊上”只是婴儿可爱的具体表现例子，不是核心原因，均排除，选B。
25. 细节理解题：根据原文倒数第三段“Older people sometimes do funny things. They are like young people. They show that they're in love, they start new sports, or they like to use modern things like computers or smartphones.”可知，作者举了老年人做趣事比如表达爱意、开展新运动的例子说明老年人也可爱，A、C、D选项的内容原文均未提及，排除后选B。
26. 词义猜测题：根据划线词前的“Older people are also cute because they are a little like babies.”，后文提到老年人比年轻人需要更多帮助，说明innocent是和婴儿相似的特质，也就是拥有孩童般的特质。A“行为像成年人”、C“又高又壮”、D“从不犯错”均不符合语境，排除后选B。
27. 主旨大意题：通读全文，文章依次介绍了婴儿、孩童、父母、老人不同年龄段的人各自可爱的原因，核心是说明所有年龄段的人都有自己可爱的一面。A“婴儿是世界上最可爱的生物”只对应局部内容，表述片面；B“人们应该照顾婴儿和小孩”不是文章核心论述内容；D“成年人应该向婴儿和老人学习”原文没有相关表述，均排除，选C。
