题目内容
【题目】 In Chinese, when two people or ideas are greatly different, we say there is a "honggou" (鸿沟) between them. 【1】
Honggou is an ancient canal (运河) that is seated in Xingyang, Henan province in central China. 【2】 After the Qin Dynasty was overthrown (推翻), the two states began a power struggle (权力争斗) to rule over China for about five years.
In 203 BC, both sides decided to make peace and signed (签订) the Treaty of Honggou (鸿沟协议). 【3】 Everything west of Honggou was given to the Han. Everything east of Honggou was left to the Chu.
However, shortly after that, the Han attacked the Chu again by surprise. 【4】 And China was unified (统一) under the Han's rule. Honggou went on serving as a canal for hundreds of years until it gradually went out of use.
【5】 It usually refers to a big difference that seems impossible to make up, or a difficulty in reaching mutual (相互的) understanding when it comes to people's thoughts.
A.Later, honggou is used to describe a clear gap (差距) between people and their thoughts.
B.They drew new boundaries (边界) by using Honggou as a border.
C.What exactly (确切地) is honggou?
D.Finally, the Han defeated the Chu at the Battle of Gaixia in 202 BC.
E.More than 2,000 years ago, the Han and Chu states were at war in this area.
【答案】

【3】B
【4】D
【5】A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述鸿沟一词的来历,鸿沟与楚汉之争有关,后来形容人相互理解有难度,思想有差距。
【1】句意:确切地说什么是鸿沟呢?
根据前一句“we say there is a ‘honggou’ between them”介绍了鸿沟这个词,根据文章的结构判断此处提出问题“什么是鸿沟”,下文具体介绍鸿沟一词的来源。故选C。
【2】句意:2000多年前,汉和楚在这一地区打仗。
根据后一句“the two states began a power struggle to rule over China”可知此处讲述与“the two states”以及“struggle”相关的内容。故选E。
【3】句意:他们划了新的边界线,以鸿沟为界。
根据“Everything west of Honggou was given to the Han. Everything east of Honggou was left to the Chu”可知此处总体的说他们以鸿沟为界划新的边界线。故选B。
【4】句意:最后,在公元前202年的垓下之战,汉打败了楚。
根据后一句“And China was unified under the Han's rule”可知汉在战争中赢了楚the Han defeated the Chu。故选D。
【5】句意:后来,鸿沟被用来描述人与人思想的明显的差距。
根据“It usually refers to a big difference that seems impossible to make up, or a difficulty in reaching mutual understanding when it comes to people's thoughts”可知此处讲述后来鸿沟从地名转变成抽象的含义,用来形容人相互理解有难度,思想有差距。故选A。
五选五的做题方法如下:①先读一遍短文,了解大意。②再读一段,注意上下文或前后句子的逻辑关系,来选择答案。例如第一题根据文章总然后分的结构可知开头提出问题,第二段解答问题,选择疑问句“What exactly is honggou”。第二题根据后一句“the two states began a power struggle to rule over China”可知此处讲述与“the two states”以及“struggle”相关的内容“the Han and Chu states were at war”。第三题根据后面“Everything west of Honggou was given to the Han. Everything east of Honggou was left to the Chu”可知此处总体的说他们以鸿沟为界来划新的边界线“they drew new boundaries by using Honggou as a border”。③最后再完整读一遍,检查文章是否通顺以及连贯性。
