一、通过上下文语境猜测词义
Passage 1

In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代码) that powers Al but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades' professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.

In this "book of books", artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations.

Passage 1
1.D 根据上文“When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more successful when it's on paper than onscreen. A large amount of research confirms this finding. ”可知，在阅读几百字的文本时，纸质阅读比屏幕阅读的学习效果更好。根据画线词所在句"when experimenters move from posing simple tasks-like identifying the main idea in a reading passage to ones that require mental abstraction such as drawing inferences from a text”可知，当实验人员把任务从易（比如找到阅读文章的主旨）到难（需要抽象思维，比如从文本中推断出结论）推进时，纸质阅读的优势尤为明显，也就是变得容易被人注意到（become easy to notice）。
故选D。
Passage 2
2.B 分析句子结构可知，后面的定语从句“when they would normally reproduce”修饰 the optimum times。由此可知，“the optimum times”指的是“珊瑚正常的繁殖时间”，所以画线词与 appropriate（合适的，恰当的）意思相近。故选 B。
Passage 3
3.D 根据画线词的上文“The challenges were psychological，
physical, and sometimes life-threatening... who invited
him into his home for coffee and apple pie. ” 可知，Fuhrmann 在航行中遇到了很多挑战，也有幸遇到善良的陌生人。由此可知，these switchbacks 指的是上文叙述的这些挑战，switchbacks 应该意为“曲折”，与 challenges力同义关系。故选D。
Passage 4
4.C 根据画线短语的下文“but,thankfully,Campbell has...accessible and informative”可知，画线短语所在句子前后语义为转折关系。由此可推知，Campbell写的这本书是通俗易懂的，如果别人写这本书的话可能就不是这样了，因此画线短语表示“如果是由能力较差的人写”。
故选C。
Passage 5
5.A 根据画线词的下文“After all, I was only a senior girl in high school coaching a seventh grade basketball team. 可知，作者当时只是一个高中高年级的女生，执教一支七年级篮球队，起初应是有点担心。因此 apprehensive 意为“担心的”。故选A。
Passage 6
6.B 画线词的上文“The convenience and width of an AI
Chat bot can't compete with the pleasures of chatting with someone whose personality I have learned over the course
of years. ”描述了使用人工智能聊天机器人练习语言的特点，从而推知画线词 It指代的是“使用 Lang AI 练习语言”。故选B。
Passage 7
7.A relate to 为人熟知的意思力“与....有关”，但根据 "These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago,but they record moments”中的 but表达的语境可知，这些场景可能是数百年前绘制的，但它们记录了我们都能理解的时刻，故画线短语“relate to”意思为“理解，认识到”，与 understand 意思相近。故选A。
Passage 8
8.C 结合文章可知，此处讲的是德约科维奇大满贯获得的单打冠军的次数与澳大利亚人玛格丽特 考特保持的纪录数相同。由此可知，画线单词的意思应与“等同于”意思相近。equal加上动词后缀-ize，成动词 equalize。C项符合题意。故选C。
