答案:1.B;2.A;3.D;4.D;
解析:

(1)

在第一则广告中,有eaters, all-you-can-eat competition和50 hot dogs and buns等词和短语,可以推断出该比赛是吃食物比赛。

(2)

广告Ⅰ的第二段说“Viewing is available on a first-come-first-served basis”,Viewing就是指观看比赛,它依据的原则是first-come-first-served,也即是说“先来的先得到好位置”。

(3)

第二则广告的第二段开头就说Frjel是一个以家庭为基础的社团,目的是重新体验和描绘从Frjel来的维京人的生活;第三段说的是Frjel社团成员的目的的具体内容。总的来说,Frjel就是一个重新体验维京人生活的社团。

(4)

从“Frjel was one of the richest trading centres in the Viking world”一句可知,Frjel曾经是一个商业中心。


提示:

第1题和第4题都是细节题,但却是这篇阅读理解题较容易选错的小题。对于细节题的解答,最重要的是要对跟题目有关的原文内容仔细核对,不能仓促地下结论,不能先入为主(比如第1题,要排除原文内容先出现的那些与音乐有关的词和短语的干扰);其次要注意题干中的关键用词(如第4题的used to指的就是过去而不是现在)。

  Most American students go to traditional public schools.There are about 88,000 pub-lic schools all over the US.Some students attend about 3000 independent public schools called charter schools.

  Charter schools are self-governing.Private companies operate some charter schools.They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools.They receive tax money just as other public schools do.Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning.These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits them to operate.

  Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws governing tra-ditional public schools.Local, state or federal governments cannot tell them what to teach.Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach them.Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.

  The Bush Administration strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize pub-lic schools that are failing to educate students.But some education agencies and unions op-pose charter schools.One teachers' union has just made public the results of the first nation-al study comparing the progress of students in traditional schools and charter schools.

  The American Federation of Teachers criticized the government's delay in releasing the results of the study, which is called the National Assessment of Educational Progress.U-math education experts say the study shows that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests the students in regular public schools.

  Some experts say the students is not a fair look at charter schools.because students in those schools have more problems than students in teaditional schools.Other education experts say the study results should make charter school officials demand improved student progress.
