14．While he was investigating ways to improve the telescope Newton made _______discovery which completely changed ____ man's understanding of color．（　　）
A．a，/B．a，theC．/，theD．the，a

分析 当他在研究改进望远镜的方法时，牛顿做出一个重大的发现，这彻底地改变了人类对色彩的理解．

解答 答案选A．本题考查冠词的用法．前半句是由while引导的时间状语从句"While he was investigating ways to improve the telescope"，主句为"Newton make ___ discovery"，之后是由which引导的定语从句，修饰discovery．第一空后的discovery是可数名词的单数形式，意为"发现"，本句话中第一次提到，为泛指"一个发现"，又因discovery以辅音音素[d]开头，故用a．第二空后的man指代"人类"，其前不用冠词．

点评 长难句注意划分句子成分，分清主句从句．man指"人类"时，其前不用冠词．

5．     Settling in to life at Oxford      
When you first arrive in Oxford，it may take a little while for you to find your way around．The university is a large organization that is fully integrated into the city and has been evolving for 800years．Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike（most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around），setting up a bank account，getting their computer and mobile phone working，finding their department，getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize．
One of the major events you will experience shortly after"coming up"to Oxford is matriculation．Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university．
International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year．Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in UK and introduce you to other graduate students from for all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you，as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you．The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system，University services，information on living in Britain and culture differences，as well as addressing practical issues such as employment，immigration and visas，health and safety．You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow students．
Another good thing to experience early on is college dining．Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners，which consist of three or four courses，and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant．On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor．In this way，you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many of the historical college grounds and dining halls．
Further information on your first few weeks at Oxford is available via the Students Gateway on our website，and you can get first-hand accounts of what life at Oxford is like by watching videos of students talking about their experiences on our Wall of 100Faces．
