1题详解】

细节理解题。根据If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal中的The book is a snappy read but lingers: it left me wondering why we don’t respect signals of intelligence from other species-and more deeply consider how our own intelligence works against us. (这本书读起来很快,但是却让我感到困惑: 为什么我们不尊重来自其他物种的智慧信号——并且更深入地思考我们自己的智慧是如何与我们作对的。)可知,《如果尼采是独角鲸 》这一本书谈到了物种智力的主题。故选C

2题详解】

细节理解题。根据四本书的介绍可知,这四本书都是2022年出版的,所以是在同一年出版。故选B

3题详解】

细节理解题。根据四本书的介绍可知,最便宜的两本书是Doctors and DistillersThe Milky Way。所以想买两本书的汤姆至少该付18+26=44美元。故选A
