题目内容
What is intelligence (智力) anyway? When I was in the army I 1 an intelligence test that all soldiers took, and against 2 of 100, scored 160.
I had an auto-repair man once, who, on these intelligence tests, could not 3 have scored more than 80. 4 , when anything went wrong with my car I hurried to him
and he always 5 it.
Well, then, suppose my auto-repair man 6 questions for some intelligence tests. By every one of them I'd prove myself a 7 . In a world where I have to work with my 8 , I'd do poorly.
Consider my auto-repair man 9 . He had a habit of telling 10 . One time he said, “Doe, a deaf-and-dumb (聋哑) man 11 some nails. Having entered a store, he put two fingers together on the counter and made 12 movements with the other hand. The clerk brought him a hammer. He 13 his head and pointed to the two fingers he was hammering. The clerk 14 him some nails. He picked out the right size and left. Well, Doc, the 15 man who came in was blind. He wanted scissors (剪刀). 16 do you suppose he asked for them?” I lifted my right hand and made scissoring movements with my first two fingers. He burst out laughing and said, “Why, you fool, he used his 17 and asked for them. I've been 18 that on all my customers today, but I knew 19 I'd catch you.”“Why is that?” I asked. “Because you are so goddamned educated, Doc, I knew you couldn't be very 20 .
And I have an uneasy feeling he had something there.

1．“receive an intelligence test”译为“接受一项智力测试”，故应选C． 2．与平均分100分相对比，我得了160分．“an average”指平均分，平均状况． 3．先排除A项，智力测试中80分属low IQ，故此处如用always与auto-repairman在智力测试中的成绩不符，故应排除；C、D两项与文意不符，故应选B． 4．文意转折，故选D． 5．fix在此用做动词，作“修理”解． 6．文意应选择“设计”之意，故应选C． 7．此处的By every one of them系指“如做（他设计的）每一个智力测试．”作者在理论上也许很不错，但在实际操作中，往往手足无措．所以作者说，做他的智力测试题，自己就会是一个傻瓜． 8．作者动脑可以言胜，但一动手就不战而败了．此处正好与上句互为印证． 9．上一段作者已经讲述了auto-repair man的一些不同凡响之处，此处欲再提及他的一段风趣而睿智的故事，故应选again． 10．从下文的一段故事中可知，答案． 11．此处文意要求选D，译为“需要”． 12．句意为：这位聋哑人进了商店之后，他捏紧一只手的两个指头，用另一只手在柜台上作钉钉子的动作． 13．从本句可知，这位聋哑人摇头表示否定要买锤子． 14．服务员拿来一些钉子，这位聋哑人挑选了合适的型号，然后就离开了． 15．从上下文看，第一个进来购物的人是聋哑人，可知，后面进来购物的盲人是第二个人，故选D． 16．应排除A、C、D三项，因为asked for己有宾语them，故应选B． 17．盲人用声音来购物． 18．try…on sb.，在此作“以……来试验某人；以……来审视某人”． 19．for sure在此作“确实”解，等于really． 20．上一句说Doe“你有十足的学究气”，即说Doe不可能非常聪明而不落入我所设的圈套． |

When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in the speech of a 13 character.
Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and 14 a story, and so 15 as one wants to 16 the story only, one need not bother (费心) about the language. But the case is quite different with a 17 of English. I mean a student of English is different from a student of stories or 18 is called the general reader.
As you may also have 19 from the above, you ought to read very 20. Not only very carefully but also aloud, and that again and again 21 you know the passage by heart and can 22 it as if it were your own. Positively (正面) this will teach you many 23 words and phrases; negatively (负面) it will help you to avoid many errors and faults in expression. Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent copying is a help to 25 by heart.
