1、大学英语六级改革适用(阅读)模拟试卷 41及答案与解析 Section C 0 It is possible for students to obtain advanced degrees in English while knowing little or nothing about traditional scholarly methods. The consequences of this neglect of traditional scholarship are particularly unfortunate for the study of women writers. If t
2、he canon the list of authors whose works are most widely taught is ever to include more women, scholars must be well trained in historical scholarship and textual editing. Scholars who do not know how to read early manuscripts, locate rare books, establish a sequence of editions, and so on are beref
3、t of crucial tools for revising the canon. To address such concerns, an experimental version of the traditional scholarly methods course was designed to raise students consciousness about the usefulness of traditional learning for any modern critic or theorist. To minimize the artificial aspects of
4、the conventional course, the usual procedure of assigning a large number of small problems drawn from the entire range of historical periods was abandoned, though this procedure has the obvious advantage of at least superficially familiarizing students with a wide range of reference sources. Instead
5、 students were engaged in a collective effort to do original work on a neglected eighteenth-century writer, Elizabeth Griffith, to give them an authentic experience of literary scholarship and to inspire them to take responsibility for the quality of their own work. Griffith s work presented a numbe
6、r of advantages for this particular pedagogical purpose. First, the body of extant scholarship on Griffith was so tiny that it could all be read in a day; thus students spent little time and effort mastering the literature and had a clear field for their own discoveries. Griffith s play The platonic
7、 Wife exists in three versions, enough to provide illustrations of editorial issues but not too many for beginning students to manage. In addition, because Griffith was successful in the eighteenth century, as her continued productivity and favourable reviews demonstrate her exclusion from the canon
8、 and virtual disappearance from literary history also helped raise issues concerning the current canon. The range of Griffith s work meant that each student could become the world s leading authority on a particular Griffith text. For example, a student studying Griffith s Wife in the Right obtained
9、 a first edition of the play and studied it for some weeks. This student was suitably shocked and outraged to find its title transformed into A wife in the Night in Watts Bibliotheca Britannica. Such experiences, inevitable and common in working on a writer to whom so little attention has been paid,
10、 serve to vaccinate the student I hope for a lifetime against credulous use of reference sources. 1 Which one of the following is not required for those scholars who are eager to revise the canon? ( A) Be familiar with early books. ( B) Search books that are not regular published. ( C) Read numerous
11、 historical books. ( D) Know how to do textual editing. 2 What is the purpose of opening a new course for students in paragraph 2? ( A) To satisfy the needs of scholars ( B) To make schools more diversified ( C) To enlarge more students having more choices ( D) To enable students to be aware of the
12、function of traditional learning 3 The word “exclusion“(Line 8, Para.3)is closest in meaning to_. ( A) illustration ( B) qualification ( C) assimilation ( D) elimination 4 Which of the following best describes the function of paragraph 3 in relation to the text as a whole? ( A) It summarizes the adv
13、antages that students can derive from the experimental scholarly methods course. ( B) It provides additional reasons why students should choose the course. ( C) It provides an illustration students can derive from the experimental scholarly methods course. ( D) It contrasts the experience of a stude
14、nt in the experimental scholarly methods course with that in the traditional course. 5 It can be inferred that the author of the text considers traditional scholarly methods courses to be_. ( A) too wide-ranging to approximate genuine scholarly activity ( B) too narrow for understanding the writers
15、perspective ( C) unconcerned about the accuracy of background ( D) irrelevant to the work of most students 5 Theyre still kids, and although theres a lot that the experts dont yet know about them, one thing they do agree on is that what kids use and expect from their world has changed rapidly. And i
16、ts all because of technology. To the psychologists, sociologists, and generational and media experts who study them, their digital gear sets this new group apart, even from their tech-savvy(懂技术的 ) Millennial elders. They want to be constantly connected and available in a way even their older sibling
17、s dont quite get. These differences may appear slightly, but they signal an all-encompassing sensibility that some say marks the dawning of a new generation. The contrast between Millennials and this younger group was so evident to psychologist Larry Rosen of California State University that he has
18、declared the birth of a new generation in a new book, Rewired: Understanding the inGeneration and the Way They Learn, out next month. Rosen says the tech-dominated life experience of those born since the early 1990s is so different from the Millennials he wrote about in his 2007 book, Me, MySpace an
19、d I: Parenting the Net Generation, that they warrant the distinction of a new generation, which he has dubbed the “iGeneration“. “The technology is the easiest way to see it, but its also a mind-set, and the mind-set goes with the little i, which I m talking to stand for individualized,“ Rosen says.
20、 “Everything is defined and individualized to me. My music choices are defined to me. What I watch on TV any instant is defined to me.“ He says the iGeneration includes todays teens and middle-schoolers, but its too soon to tell about elementary-school ages and younger. Rosen says the iGeneration be
21、lieves anything is possible. “If they can think of it, somebody probably has or will invent it,“ he says. “They expect innovation.“ They have high expectations that whatever they want or can use “will be able to be tailored to their own needs and wishes and desires.“ Rosen says portability is key. T
22、hey are inseparable from their wireless devices, which allow them to text as well as talk, so they can be constantly connected even in class, where cell phones are supposedly banned. Many researchers are trying to determine whether technology somehow causes the brains of young people to be wired dif
23、ferently. “They should be distracted and should perform more poorly than they do,“ Rosen says. “But findings show teens survive distractions much better than we would predict by their age and their brain development.“ Because these kids are more immersed and at younger ages, Rosen says, the educatio
24、nal system has to change significantly. “The growth curve on the use of technology with children is exponential(指数的 ), and we run the risk of being out of step with this generation as far as how they learn and how they think,“ Rosen says. “We have to give them options because they want their world i
