题目解答
答案
B
解析
本题考查对文章主旨的理解。解题的关键在于理解文章的整体情节以及最后所传达的核心观点。
- 首先,文章讲述了贫穷的苏格兰农民弗莱明救了贵族的儿子,贵族为了报答他,让弗莱明的儿子接受良好教育。
- 接着,弗莱明的儿子亚历山大·弗莱明成为了著名的青霉素发现者。
- 后来,贵族的儿子温斯顿·丘吉尔患上肺炎,被青霉素所救。
- 最后文章引用“Someone once said: What goes around comes around.”,这句话的意思是“善有善报,恶有恶报”,这与文章中弗莱明救人后自己的儿子又救了贵族儿子的情节相呼应,体现了文章的主旨。
- 分析各个选项:
- A选项 “You will have to face what you have done.” 意思是“你必须面对你所做的事情”,文章重点并非强调面对自己的行为,所以A选项不符合。
- B选项 “What goes around comes around.” 即“善有善报,恶有恶报”,与文章情节和主旨相符,所以B选项正确。
- C选项 “No pain, no gain.” 意为“不劳无获”,文章没有体现出付出与收获的关系,所以C选项不正确。
- D选项 “Saying is one thing and doing is another.” 表示“说一套做一套”,与文章内容无关,所以D选项错误。
