Four score and seven years ago our
34、 fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battl
35、e field of that war. We have come to dedicate a pgr tion of the field, as a final resting place for those who gave their lives that that nation might live. It is alto gether fitting and proper that we should do this.But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate-we can not consecrate -we can not hallow
36、 -this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the

40、掌握文章中某些细节”的能力。解题思路这道题的答案要先从整个段落以上下文中找到相关线索:法老建造金字塔的目的是什么呢?后面谈到了死后新生,让别人都记住他。因此它有可能用作坟墓,经过这种推测后再从原文中找到用来证实的信息。关键词语pyramids(金字塔),as(作为)详细解答在听力原文中有这么一个问句“Why did the Pharaohs do it?”(法老为什么要建金字塔?)后面提到“the Pharaoh expected to live in his tomb after death”,虽然这里没有明确地说明金字塔就是坟墓,但是也可以证实法老建造金字塔就是为了把它做为死后生活的地方。
41、填空项 1:_ (正确答案:death)解析:试题分析这题考查学生“根据已知事实进行推测”的能力。解题思路前面已经提到金字塔是用来做坟墓的,因此法老可能希望金字塔帮助他们获得新生,而获得新生和坟墓两个词说明这一切只可能发生在死后。关键词语find life(获得新生)。详细解答这个答案即使通过猜测也能得出正确答案,而且听力材料中也明确提到“The kings thought the pyramids would help them find life after death”因此必然选择 death。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:across)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“根据下上文做出判断”的能
42、力。解题思路这道题相对而言比较简单,因为句子的主要结构已经存在,而且从结构上可以推断此处需要介词,因此在听的过程中要注意记录介词。关键词语journeys(旅程),sky(天空)详细解答原文中提到法老建造金字塔的原因与宗教有关,他们自称为太阳神的儿子,因此希望死后能利用金字塔穿越天空到天国去,因此用 across比较合适,而且原文中的原话也提供了 cross the sky这个信息。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:Nile)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“利用一般常识和听力材料中细节”的能力。解题思路金字塔是我们所熟悉的埃及古建筑物,它是沿河而建,究竟是沿哪条河兴建的?我们的常识告诉我们埃及有条尼罗河
43、(Nile River),而究竟是不是还需要从原文的信息中得到证实。关键词语the Nile详细解答在原文中提到“The pyramids were built on high ground,above the highest point that the Nile flood water ever reached!”(金字塔建在尼罗河洪水所能达到的最高点的高地上),从中可以推断金字塔的确是建在尼罗河边的。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:largest)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“根据文章中某些细节进行推断”的能力。解题思路这个空的答案要从听力材料原文中介绍金字塔的信息中寻找线索,特别要注意听 t
44、he pyramid of Khufu有什么特点。关键词语pyramid of Khufu详细解答听力材料中提到“The biggest of them was the Great Pyramid”;the pyramid of Khufu,只要听到 Khufu 就能得出正确答案 the biggest。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:stones)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“对原文细节的掌握”能力。解题思路这个空前面是个数字还有一个形容词 huge(巨大的)。而从整段内容判断是关于金字塔的建造。因此可以推测是关于金字塔建筑材料的,因此有必要在注意听数字的同时,注意金字塔的建造过程的细节。关键词语
45、 is made of(以构成)详细解答听力材料中提到“It was made of about 2, 300,000 blocks of stone,all exactly the same shape”说明建造金字塔的材料是石头,这也是一般常识可以推断出来的。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:september)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“掌握文章中某些细节”的能力。解题思路从前面的介词和洪水泛滥两点来看,此题是关于建造金字塔的时间的,因此要注意听取工人们建造金字塔时的时间和其它相关信息,尤其要注意记录时间,在听写这部分试题中,时间、数字都是极其重要的信息。关键词语flood(洪水)详细解答前面
46、提过金字塔是建于尼罗河边的,则尼罗河每年都会有一次洪水泛滥,给两岸带来肥沃的泥土,而文中也讲得很清楚“the Nile flood began in September”因此可以判断洪水于 9月份泛滥。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:pictures)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“掌握文章中某些细节”的能力。解题思路在听力材料中提到两个问题是关于古代埃及人如何建造金字塔的。而了解这些来源对于了解整个金字塔的秘密和回答这个问题是非常重要的。关键词语Egyptian tombs(埃及坟墓)详细解答听力材料原文中提到我们了解工人们是如何建造金字塔的是来自埃及坟墓里的古画和古埃及人做记录的古老文字。填空项 1:_ (正确答案:sledges)解析:试题分析此题考查学生“掌握某些列举的事实”的能力。解题思路从本句中列举的 levers和 rollers等可判断这个空也有可能是关于工具的,而且从上下文看这段也确实是关于建造金字塔的。关键词语levers,rollers详细解答听力材料中提到古代埃及是在 5000年前建造金字塔的,而那时候古埃及人没有我们现在抬重物所用的机器,他们使用的是 levers,rollers 和
