题目解答
答案
A
解析
第一部分:阅读题(What is the writer...)
题目询问作者的写作目的。选项A“展示阅读方法的发展”、B“介绍新的阅读方法”、C“提醒人们旧时的朗读”、F“鼓励未来阅读的发展”。根据常见阅读目的题逻辑,若文本未明确提及“新方法”(B)、“旧时朗读”(C)或“未来发展”(F),而“展示发展过程”(A)更可能是概括性目的,故推测答案为A。
第二部分:完形填空(2003年考题)
41. C. factors
句意:泳池大小和形状取决于许多“因素”。A.facts(事实)、B.causes(原因)、D.circumstances(环境)均不如factors(影响因素)符合“取决于多个因素”的语境。
42. A. smaller
对比公众泳池“通常很大”(large),私人泳池是“更小的”(smaller),其他选项B.medium(中等)、C.middle(中间)、D.moderate(适度)均不贴合上下文对比。
43. D. match
私人泳池必须“匹配”房屋和花园设计,A.fit(适合)不如match(匹配)准确,B.follow(跟随)、C.suit(适合)均不及match符合“设计协调”的语义。
44. D. therefore
前句“必须匹配设计”导致“形状重要”,表因果关系,therefore(因此)正确;A.for example(例如)、B.there(那里)、C.such as(比如)均不符。
45. A. also
句意:大小和形状“也”取决于用途,表递进,also(也)正确;B.besides(此外)、C.too(也,通常放句末)、D.either(也不)均不符。
46. A. place
“儿童游泳的地方”,place(地方)最符合;B.opportunity(机会)、C.chance(机会)、D.time(时间)均不指代具体场所。
47. A. Stay
“在炎热天保持凉爽”,stay cool(保持凉爽)是固定搭配,其他B.taste(尝)、C.feel(感觉)、D.leave(离开)均不适用。
48. A. make
“帮助做决定”用make decisions(固定搭配),B.determine(决定)、C.decide(决定)、D.reach(到达)均不与these decisions搭配。
49. D. design
工程师和建筑师帮助“设计”细节,design(设计)符合职业属性;A.plan(计划)、B.make(制作)、C.do(做)均不精准。
50. B. yard
考察房屋和“庭院”(yard),与garden(花园)对应,A.pool(泳池)、C.rooms(房间)、D.floor(地板)均不符。
51. A. to
“相似于”用similar to(固定搭配),其他介词均不正确。
52. B. location
计划包括排水口、管道等的“位置”,location(位置)正确;A.spot(斑点)、C.site(场地)、D.situation(情况)均不贴切。
53. C. level
挖掘后需“平整”地面浇混凝土,level(平整)符合施工步骤;A.provide(提供)、B.prepare(准备)、D.build(建造)均不指“平整土地”。
54. D. team
“我们的泳池建造团队”,team(团队)正确;anization(组织)、B.number(数量)、C.department(部门)均不贴合“施工团队”。
55. C. After
“挖掘之后”铺设混凝土地板,after(在…之后)表时间顺序,A.When(当…时)、B.Since(自从)、D.Because(因为)均不符。
56. D. onto
“把混凝土喷到墙上”,onto(到…上)正确;A.over(在…上方)、B.in(在…里)、C.to(到)均不精准。
57. D. fast
“干得太快会开裂”,fast(快)与slowly(慢)对应,A.tightly(紧)、B.evenly(均匀)、C.slowly(慢)均不符。
58. C. around
“泳池周围的区域”,around(周围)正确;A.in(在…里)、B.on(在…上)、D.over(在…上方)均不指“周围”。
59. (题目缺失选项,推测为“trees”等)
“不要在泳池附近种植物”,叶子会掉进水池,树根会破坏混凝土,结合上下文应为“植物”相关。
60. (题目缺失选项,推测为“damage”等)
树根会“破坏”混凝土,damage(破坏)符合逻辑。
第三部分:学科题(Children's Literature. Children's Psychology.)
题目未明确问题,但根据答案“A”推测可能询问某学科归属,Children's Literature(儿童文学)可能为正确选项。
