解析:
(1) |
根据后文可知,后文多次提到“scientific discovery”。 |
(2) |
固定搭配:“catch sb.‘s attention”,引起注意。 |
(3) |
B项分词作状语;若选A项则as引起的原因状语从句缺主语;C项表转折,而此处无转折意;若选D项则句子本身就不通了,有一个over thirty了,怎么还用得上beyond。 |
(4) |
结合上下文语境及生活常识可知,是没人愿意认为自己以过了探索发现的年龄,而不其他选项的意思。 |
(5) |
结合上下文语境可知。 |
(6) |
第三段分两部分,前一部分谈有关科学发现,后一部分谈有关政界,从作者所列举的例子可看出这点。 |
(7) |
结合生活常识或科学常识可知,Galileo证明的是物重与速度的关系。 |
(8) |
定语从句,被修饰词research在句中作主语,结合选项知,是research使她荣膺Nobel Prize。 |
(9) |
作者列举这些例子的目的在于证明观点,既然是为了证明,那么就应该是足够的,而不是大量的,因为量大不一定足够。 |
(10) |
I wondered…“我好奇……”结合语境可知。 |
(11) |
本段从该过渡句开始从科学发现转到政界,是不同的领域。 |
(13) |
确实如此。does是代动词,代替need。 |
(14) |
结合后文所列举例子的内容可知,例子内容在谈那些政客是什么时候开始他们政治生涯的。 |
(15) |
结合语境知,放弃律师的生活,然后被选举。 |
(16) |
结合语境,why don’t……为什么不。 |
(17) |
作者自己的一家之言,故是guess。 |
(18) |
从后文可知。 |
(19) |
结合语境可知,都90了,仍尝试新的画法。 |
(20) |
作者最后举出Shakespeare and Picasso的事迹正是为了“安慰”“超龄”的自己可能还是有希望的。 |
完形填空 :通读下面的短文, 掌握其大意, 然后在1—25各题所给的四个选项中, 选出 一个最佳答案。
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.
