题目内容
7.A report by the US'Open Syllabus Project found that the most read books among US college students in the past year were the likes of The Republic by ancient Greek philosopher Plato and The Clash of Civilizations by US political scientist Samuel Huntington.And according to reports released by Chinese college libraries,the most popular books among Chinese students are novels like Journey Under the Midnight Sun by Japanese writer Keigo Higashino and Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (《天龙八部》) by Chinese author Louis Cha.This is considered by many to be one of the reasons why Chinese students are sometimes not as good at critical thinking or observing global perspectives as US students-they read too many bestseller novels.
"By reading texts in social studies,science,and other disciplines,students build a foundation of knowledge in these fields that will also give them the background to be better readers in all areas,"Robert Pondiscio,vice president of the Core Knowledge Foundation in the US told The Washington Post.
According to China Youth Daily,there are usually five stages when it comes to reading,with popular novels at the bottom.More advanced readers normally go on to read classic fictional literature,history and philosophy,or books with critical ideas.The fifth stage involves students making their own reading lists based on the ideological (意识形态的) systems they have built throughout the years.
We spend hours,days or even weeks on a book,so it's only natural that we want to learn something useful in return for our efforts.Many see reading as an investment in themselves.
But this practical view of literature and the thought that history and philosophy books are superior to novels is not agreed by everyone.After all,what they offer are two different kinds of satisfaction.While the former provides knowledge,the latter brings sentimental (情感的) experiences."Fiction and poetry are medicines,"UK writer Jeanette Winterson once wrote."What they heal is the rupture (裂痕) reality makes on the imagination."

解答 24.D 写作意图题.文章第一段举出中美学生读书喜好的不同,目的是为下文做铺垫.再看第二段"This is considered by many to be one of the reasons why Chinese students are sometimes not as good at critical thinking or observing global perspectives (视野) as US students…",这是被许多人认为是一个原因,为什么中国学生不善于批判性思维或观察的全球视角(视野)像美国的学生那样,所以答案选择D.
25.B 细节理解题.根据题干中的"have the background knowledge in each area",可以锁定答案信息源在第三段,"By reading texts in history/social studies,science,and other disciplines,students build a foundation of knowledge in these fields that will also give them the background to be better readers in all areas,"通过阅读历史/社会学、科学和其他学科的课本,学生可以在这些领域建立知识基础,也将为他们提供更好的阅读背景.故选择B
26.A 细节理解题.通过China Youth Daily,迅速锁定信息源为第四段.再根据细节理解"The fifth stage involves students making their own reading lists based on the ideological systems they have built throughout the years",第五阶段是学生根据他们多年来建立的思想体系来制作自己的阅读清单.可以知道"最高阶段"为A.
27.B 推理判断题.通过阅读最后两段,可知道Jeanette Winterson的观点为"Fiction and poetry are medicines which heal the rupture (裂痕) reality makes on the imagination."小说和诗歌是医治现实中破裂的药物.故答案为B.
