Reading comprehensionThere is a lot of excitement during orientation. Of course, the college experience is not all, or even mostly, about celebrations or parades. It is first and foremost about learning, growth, and as Jennifer Morton says in her book, transformation.I hope you will have many happy experiences along the way, but I know there will also be moments of challenge and difficulty as you travel the path that lies ahead. As you begin that journey today, I would like to share with you a challenge that I have confronted recently.Five years ago, I had a magnetic resonance imaging scan, an MRI for short. The problem that justified the test turned out to be very minor, but the MRI revealed an unrelated issue called an corrosive neuronal. An corrosive neuronal is a small growth, sort of like the moles that many of us have on our skin. It is, however, in a very tight place, on a nerve deep inside the ear. It is a kind of begin, non-ulcerous brain tumor. When corrosive neuroses grow, they can cause loss of hearing, balance, or the ability to control facial muscles.I have experienced some hearing loss. I might also have lost a bit of my balance, but I've always been a little clumsy, so it's hard to be certain. Fortunately, corrosive neuroses usually grow very slowly, by millimeter per year. Sometimes they stop growing. So once or twice a year for the past five years, I have lain inside an MRI tube while the magnets clatter around me, taking pictures of my brain. So far, I have been lucky. My neuronal has not grown.I draw lessons from my experience and one is that I find myself with new reason to appreciate human resilience and striving. We are all fragile and flared.yet we can reach for the stars and do ceremonious things. That astonishing combination of weakness and courage is a part of what defines the human condition. We share it. We share it without regard to race, national origin, religion, sexual identity or political belief. We share it across all the wedges that too often divide us.( )1. According to Jennifer Morton, the college is a place____.A.where students hold celebrationsB.that provides orientation for studentsC.where students may undergo great changesD.that helps students experience parades( )2. The author told the story about himself / herself in order to____.E.inform the readers of the knowledge about MRIF.share his / her happiness with the people aroundG.encourage people to receive medical check-ups regularlyH.tell college students possible challenges lying ahead( )3. Which of the following statements is NOT true about acoustic neurons?I.They are too minor to be found by MRI.J.They are like moles which grow very slowly.K.They are not likely to kill people.L.They can bring some hearing problems.( )4.

题目解答
答案
1.C2.D3.A4.B5.D
解析
步骤 1：理解问题背景
文章讲述了作者在大学开学典礼上分享自己经历的故事，以此鼓励学生面对未来的挑战。文章中提到Jennifer Morton的书，以及作者自己的MRI检查经历，说明了大学生活不仅仅是庆祝和游行，更多的是学习、成长和转变。
步骤 2：分析问题1
问题1询问根据Jennifer Morton的说法，大学是一个什么样的地方。根据文章，大学是关于学习、成长和转变的地方，因此选项C（where students may undergo great changes）是正确的。
步骤 3：分析问题2
问题2询问作者讲述自己的故事是为了什么。根据文章，作者讲述自己的故事是为了告诉学生未来可能面临的挑战，因此选项D（tell college students possible challenges lying ahead）是正确的。
步骤 4：分析问题3
问题3询问关于acoustic neurons的哪一项陈述是不正确的。根据文章，acoustic neurons是小的生长物，像皮肤上的痣，生长缓慢，不会致命，但可能带来听力问题。因此选项A（They are too minor to be found by MRI）是不正确的，因为MRI可以发现它们。
步骤 5：分析问题4
问题4询问“flawed”一词在最后一段中可以被哪个词替换。根据上下文，“flawed”意味着有缺陷的，因此选项B（imperfect）是正确的。
步骤 6：分析问题5
问题5询问从最后一段可以推断出作者对当前情况的态度。根据文章，作者认为人类的脆弱和勇气是人类条件的一部分，因此作者对当前情况的态度是乐观的，选项D（optimistic）是正确的。
