But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things, and you will therefore

25、 not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours. We have had some experience of it.

39、part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 【知识模块】 阅读 1 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 本文说的是：有人不分时间和场合地使用问候语 “How do you

40、 feel?”(你感觉如何 ?)简直使人无法忍受。从文章中的第一个句子我们就可以推断出本题的正确答案是 D“通常会使人感觉 不自在 ”。 【知识模块】 阅读 2 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题问在何时用 “How do you feel?”这个句子来问候似乎是比较恰当合适的。通读一下全文，我们可以从第二段第二句中找到与本题答案相关的提示信息。这句话指出，在医院探望生病的好朋友时此问候语就比较合适。由此可知本题的正确答案应为 A“生病的朋友 ”。 【知识模块】 阅读 3 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题是一道具体细节题。问文章中萧伯纳的回答表现了他的什么性格。利用查阅式阅读法，我们可以

41、在本文最后两 个句子中找到相关信息：萧伯纳的回答使问 “How do you feel?”这个问题的人自讨没趣，由此可见他的回答是很机智幽默的。因此，本题的正确答案应是 B。 【知识模块】 阅读 4 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 本题是考查句子含义类问题，目的是要求考生根据上下文理解词组“put a bug in his ear”的意义。利用查阅式阅读法找到与此相关的上下文，我们可以推断出你问候从事各种正常活动的人 “How do you feel?”可能暗示着他还存在未曾意识到的某些问题。因此选择项 A、 B和 C没有在上下文中表现出来，而 D“似乎在提醒他什么 ”，这个选项的内容刚好表现

42、了原文的信息。所以，本题的正确答案应是 D。 【知识模块】 阅读 5 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题是关于全文的最佳标题类问题，需要通读全文，在综观全文的基础之上才能总结归纳出来。文章各段都是围绕着 “How do you feel?”这个使用不当就会成为一个愚蠢的问题的问候语而展开的。所以本文最好的标题是选择项A“一个愚蠢的问题 ”。 【知识模块】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题是一道考查文章出处的问题，主要考查学生分辨文章文体的能力。在文章第一段，作者首先列举了每年在交通事故中死亡和严重受伤的驾驶员和乘客的人数，接着又论证说，汽车时速若仅为 30英

43、里，在发生车祸时对人的撞击相当于人从三层楼的窗户上摔下来的速度。而系上安全带则可以拯救生命，可以使死亡率或严重受伤率减少一半以上。在第二段中作者介绍了哪些人需要系安全带，否则就会被罚款。第三段作者指出在几种特殊情况下可以不必系安全带，除此之外，就会因为不系安全带而被送上法庭。综上所述，我们可以分析判断出，只有警察才会用 如此的语气并有这么做的权利，因此，文章应是出自一份警察的报告。所以，本题的正确答案应是 C“警局报告 ”。而其他几个选项如 A“医学杂志 ”、 B“法律文书 ”和 D“政府信息小册子 ”都不是正确答案。 【知识模块】 阅读 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题是一道具体细节

44、题，主要考查学生是否读懂了第一段的内容。文章第一段最后一句话指出，系安全带能够挽救性命，使死亡率或严重受伤率减少一半以上。由此我们可以看出，驾驶员和前排乘客系上安全带在发生交通事故时可以大幅度地减少伤亡，即选项 C是正确的。系不系上安全 带并不能减少交通事故，也不能保证汽车时速 30英里时不发生交通事故，从而拯救性命。文章只是提到驾驶员和前排乘客每年死伤人数超过 3万，并未说系上安全带每年就可以挽救 1 5万多人的生命。因此，选项 A、 B和 D都是错误的。 【知识模块】 阅读 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题是一道具体细节题。问在系安全带方面驾驶员的责任是什么。根据文章第二段内容：就

45、大多数汽车而言，驾驶员和 14岁以上的前排乘客必须系上安全带，否则将受到 50英镑以下的罚款。驾驶员并非对所有的前排乘客是否系上安全带负有责任。但是， 驾驶员有责任让坐在前排年龄在 14岁以下的乘客系上某种安全带，否则不得坐在前排。由此可以看出， A、 C、 D三个选项都与文章内容不符，不是正确答案。只有 B项所说的内容与文章内容一致，是正确答案。 【知识模块】 阅读 9 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题问下面列举的人员中哪一种人坐在前排座位时可以不系安全带。文章第三段第一句说：然而，你在有些时候并不一定要系安全带，比如在倒车的时候，或是驾驶专用车在当地发、收 (货物 )；或者你取得有关医

46、疗单位的证明，证明你不宜使用安全带。由此我们可以推断本题的正确 答案应是 A“正在倒车进入停车场的人 ”。 【知识模块】 阅读 10 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题是一道具体细节题。根据第三段第一句话，然而，你在有些时候并不一定要系安全带，比如在倒车的时候，或是驾驶专用车在当地发、收 (货物 )；或者你取得有关医疗单位的证明，证明你不宜使用安全带。由此，我们可以得出结论，一些人由于身体上的原因可以不系安全带，但需要医生证明。选项 A说的与文章内容正好相反， “为了身体上的原因最好系上安全带 ”显然不是正确答案。 C项说，某些人最好在系安全带之前取得有效的医疗证明。 这种说法与文章的内容完

47、全不符，当然不是正确答案。而 B项说的正是文章中提到的内容，因此，本题的正确答案应是 B。 【知识模块】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 11 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 第一段第一句说： “如果你像大多数人，那么你的智力就会随着季节的改变而改变。 ”由此可知，选项 C正确。 【知识模块】 阅读 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 第一段第三句说： “一个著名的科学家，埃尔斯沃思 亨廷顿从别人的和自己的对于不同气候下人们的智力情况的研究中得出结论：季节和温度对 我们的大脑能力有确定的影响。 ”由此我们可知，选项 B正确，即亨廷顿得出的结论是基于对在不同气候下人们的研究工作。选项 A、 C、 D

48、均与文章内容不符。 【知识模块】 阅读 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 第二段第一句说： “他发现对创造性思维来说，凉爽的天气比炎热的夏季更加有利。 ”由此我们可以推断出：比起炎热的天气，寒冷的冬季似乎更有助于思考。选项 A、 B、 D均与文章内容不符。 【知识模块】 阅读 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 第三段说： “对思考来说，春天似乎是一年中最好的 阶段。其中原因之一也许是在春天里人的大脑能力受带给整个自然巨大变化的同样因素的影响。 ”我们知道，春天是万物复苏、生长的季节。由此我们可以看出，文中指的自然界的巨大变化是万物生长的意思，因此人也包含在其中。由此可知选项 A正确。选

49、项 B、 C、 D均与文章内容不符。 【知识模块】 阅读 15 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 这是一道综合推理题，应结合文中上下文所提供的信息进行综合判断，找出正确答案。文中第四段说： “秋季是第二好的季节，然后是冬季。至于夏季，它似乎是最好的思考休长假时间。 ”结合第三段，即 作者认为春季是人类大脑能力最强的季节，我们由此可以推出一年中思考的最好季节的由高到低的次序是：春季 秋季 冬季 夏季，因此选项 A正确。 【知识模块】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 16 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题问的是本篇短文的中心大意。利用浏览式阅读法和跳跃式阅读法，我们知道本文通过叙述印第安人写给美国马里兰州和弗吉尼亚州官员的一封信的内容，表达了印第安人对美国的高等教育方式持不同态度。因此，本题的正确答案应是 “印第安人的教育价值观 ”，即选择项 C。 B“北方地区的大学 ”， D“美国18世纪中叶存在的问题 ”，以及 A“印第安人和美国官员的谈话 ”，都不是本题的正确答案。 【
