题目解答

答案

我们来一步一步地分析这段文字和题目。 --- ### 原文内容分析： **第一句：** > "Cars are important in the United States." 说明汽车在美国很重要。 **第二句：** > "Without a car most people feel that they are poor." 没有汽车，人们会觉得自己贫穷。 **第三句：** > "And even if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor when he has a car." 即使一个人贫穷，如果他有汽车，他也不会觉得自己真的穷。 **第四句：** > "Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers." 亨利·福特是第一个大规模生产汽车的人。 **第五句：** > "He probably didn't know how much the car was going to affect American culture." 他可能不知道汽车对美国文化的影响有多大。 **第六句：** > "The car made the United States a nation on wheels." 汽车使美国成为一个“车轮上的国家”。 **第七句：** > "And it helped make the United States what it is today." 它帮助美国成为今天的模样。 --- ### 题目分析： **题目问的是：** > "Which of the following is **not mentioned** according to this passage?" 即：哪一个选项在文章中**没有提到**？ --- ### 逐个分析选项： **A. Cars have made the nation on wheels.** 原文第六句明确说： > "The car made the United States a nation on wheels." ✅ **提到了。** --- **B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage.** 文章中**没有提到**关于“汽油短缺”的内容。 ❌ **没有提到。** --- **C. Nearly 80% of the American people have cars.** 文章中**没有提到具体数字**，比如80%的人拥有汽车。 ❌ **没有提到。** --- **D. Cars have made American independent.** 文章中没有直接提到“独立”这个概念，虽然可能暗示了自由和移动性，但“independent”这个词没有出现。 ❌ **没有提到。** --- ### 但是注意题目的要求是选择**没有提到**的一项，而四个选项中只有一个是正确答案。虽然 B、C、D 都没有明确提到，但我们要选**最明显没有提到**的一项。 - **B** 提到了“gas shortage”（汽油短缺），这在原文中完全没有出现，而且是一个负面后果，原文没有涉及。 - **C** 提到具体数字（80%），原文也没有提到。 - **D** 提到“independent”，虽然原文没有直接说，但可能可以从“nation on wheels”等表达中**推断**出某种独立性。 --- ### 最佳答案是： > **B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage.** 因为“gas shortage”这个概念在原文中**完全没有出现**，而且是负面的，原文是正面描述汽车的影响。 --- ### ✅ 最终答案： $$ \boxed{B} $$

解析

考查要点：本题考查学生对阅读材料中信息的准确提取能力，需要判断选项中哪一项未在原文中提及。
解题核心：需逐项比对原文，排除明确提到的选项，锁定未被涉及的内容。
关键思路：

明确题目要求（找“未被提到”的选项）；
通读原文，标记关键信息；
对比选项与原文的关联性，尤其注意隐含信息与直接陈述的区别。

选项分析

A. Cars have made the nation on wheels

原文第六句直接指出：“The car made the United States a nation on wheels.” 明确提到，排除。

B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage

文章未提及“汽油短缺”（gas shortage），且原文聚焦于汽车的正面影响（如推动国家发展），未涉及负面后果，符合题意。

C. Nearly 80% of the American people have cars

原文未提供具体数据（如“80%”），但通过“Without a car most people feel poor”可推测汽车普及率高。未直接提到，但存在隐含关联。

D. Cars have made American independent

原文未直接使用“independent”，但“nation on wheels”暗示汽车赋予美国人行动自由，可能被解读为某种独立性。未直接提到，但存在推断空间。
