    Which of the following was the most important for a “gentlemaninwaiting”?

    正确答案:A

    细节题。文章第三段一开始,作者就提到,对于绅士们来说,美德首先包括了高雅和风度,与其身份地位相符的行为方式,教育仅仅是学会高雅的一种方式而已。由此可见,在绅士们眼中,[A]项“行为举止”是最重要的,而不是[B ,[C]项“道德”,与原文包含很多内容的virtue(美德)不符,[D]项在原文中没有提及。

  • 第3题:

    Text 4

    Jill Ker Conway ,president of Smith ,echoes the prevailing view of contemporary technology when she says that " anyone in today's world who doesn't understand data processing is not educated. " But she insists that the mcreasing emphasis on these matters leave certain gaps. Says she: "The very strongly utilitarian emphasis in education ,which is an effect of man-made satellites and the cold war, has really removed from this culture something that was very profound in its 18th and 19th century roots ,which was a sense that literacy and learning were ends in themselves for a demo- cratic republic. "

    In contrast to Plato's claim for the social value of education,a quite different idea of intellectu-al purposes was advocated by the Renaissance humanists. Ovejoyed with their rediscovery of the classical leaming that was thought to have disappeared during the Dark Ages,they argued that the imparting of knowledge needs no justification-religious ,social ,economic ,or political. Its purpose,to the extent that it has one ,is to pass on from generation to generation the corpus of knowledge that constitutes civilization. "What could man acquire ,by virtuous striving ,that is more valuable than knowledge?" asked Erasmus ,perhaps the greatest scholar of the early 16th century. That idea has acquired a tradition of its own. "The educational process has no end beyond itself," said John Dewey. "It is its own end. "

    But what exactly is the corpus of knowledge to be passed on? In simpler times ,it was all included in the medieval universities' Quadrivium ( arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, music ) and Trivium( grammar, thetoric ,logic). As recently as the last century ,when less than 5% of Americans went to college at all, students in New England establishments were compelled mainly to memorize and recite various Latin texts,and crusty professors angrily opposed the introduction of any new scientific discoveries or modern European languages. "They felt," said regretfully Charles Francis Adams, Jr. ,the Union Pacific Railroad president who devoted his later years to writing history ,"that a classical education was the important distinction between a man who had been to college and a man who had not been to college ,and that anything that diminished the importance of this distinction was essentially revolutionary and tended to anarchy. "

    56. The first paragraph shows that Jill Ker Conway accepts utilitarian emphasis in education

    [A] wholeheartedly.

    [B] with reservation.

    [C] against her own will.

    [D] with contempt.


    正确答案:B
    56.B【精析】该题为推理题。根据第一段第二句“But she insists that the increasing emphasis on these matters leave certain gaps.”我们知道,虽然吉尔-克尔·康维支持实用主义教育,但是她认为实用主义教育仍然有一些欠缺,故选择B项。

  • 第6题:

    Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?

    [A] Democratic ideas started with education.

    [B] Federalists were opposed to education.

    [C] New education helped confirm people’s social status.

    [D] Old education had been in tune with hierarchical society.


    正确答案:D

    本题是推理引申题。文章第一段第一句指出,随着19世纪上半叶民主权利的扩展以及随之而来的联邦主义机构的削弱,一种新的教育观念出现了。接下来的内容主要是围绕这种新的教育观念展开论述。从第一句话中可以得知,是民主权利的扩展带来了新的教育观念的产生,[A]项颠倒了二者的先后顺序,应排除。文中提到“新”的教育观念是在联邦主义机构削弱的情况下产生的。由此只能得出,新的教育观念与联邦主义有些冲突,并不能得出联邦主义者反对整个教育即[B]项的结论。第二句作者指出,教育不再是对人们先前存在的地位的确定,而成了获得更高地位的手段。[C]项与文意相悖,因此不正确。通过该句“不再”(no longer)可以推断出,从前的教育可以确定人们的社会地位,因此[D]项为正确答案。

    正确答案:
    Integrate Chinese Culture into College Education As a result of the development of Internet, College students in China are exposed to a large amount of information. We can rarely see Chinese culture in college education curriculum, which indicates that Chinese traditional culture has been ignored in college education.
    As is known to all, traditional culture represents the accumulated wisdom of our ancestors down through the ages and is a rich heritage to us. For college students, successors of modernization construction, to master Chinese culture is particularly of significance. Moreover, native culture education can promote the cultural awareness and patriotism among college students. Therefore, it is necessary and beneficial to integrate Chinese culture into college education.
    To achieve this, colleges and universities should take effective measures to preserve the traditional culture. Cultural awareness should be promoted both through the courses and extracurricular activities. As for college students, we should actively be involved in the culture education.
    点评:文章第一段指出中国大学生能接触到各种各样的知识,然而在很少有关于中国传统文化的课程。第二段论述将传统文化融入大学教育的必要性。最后一段呼吁学校和学生重视传统文化的传承。结构清晰,语言简洁。

    Which of the following is NOT true about improved communication?
    A

    It can train more innovative producers.

    B

    It can promote commodity exchange.

    C

    It can promote health care.

    D

    It can promote the development of education.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    关于改进的通讯,录音中提到“Improved communication can foster great advances in health care and education.”(改进的通讯可以促进卫生保健和教育取得巨大进步),所以C、D项正确;“consumers can purchase products from any country in the world”(消费者可以从世界上任何一个国家购买商品),所以B项“它可以促进商品交换”也正确;“any innovative producers can easily reach a much larger market place”(任何创新性的生产者可以很容易地接触更大的市场),所以A项的表述错误。

    C

    Science students ought to have enough knowledge about society.

    D

    Technical training must be reinforced in science education.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    主旨大意题。作者在文章首段就开门见山地指出,理科生很容易脱离人文和社会学研究。该段尾句揭示了文章主旨:如果科学家想要解决社会问题,就要对政治、经济和文化领域有更多的了解,尽管这可能意味着他们要少学一些科学知识。接下来又分析了英国理科教育中存在的不合常理之处,并以人口过剩问题为例,指出由于缺乏人文知识,科学家在解决问题的过程中容易忽略社会因素。由此可以判断,作者论述的观点是科学家想要更好地解决问题就要先更好地了解社会,故答案为C项。选项A项只是作者用于证明论点的一个论据,与题意不符,可排除。B、D两项不是作者观点,故排除。

    正确答案:A

    本题考查了事实细节。文章第三段一开始,作者就提到,对于绅士们来说,美德首先包括了高雅和风度,与其身份地位相符的行为方式,教育仅仅是学会高雅的一种方式而已。由此可见,在绅士们眼中,[A]项“行为举止”是最重要的。[B]项与原文不符,[C]项和[D]项在原文中没有明显的论述。

  • 第19题:



    It can be inferred from the passage that( )

    A.Dickens’s hatred toward London grew with his age
    B.Dickens ’s works contributed to some of the changes of London
    C.Dickens liked to portray only the dark sides of London
    D.Dickens,a social reformer,was devoted to the changes of London

    答案:B
    解析:
    推断题。A项“狄更斯对于伦敦的怨恨与日俱增”,文章第一段就提到伦敦给予了他许多情感,不只是负面的情感,后文又提到现代人们将其对于伦敦的情感称作是love/hate relationship,所以A项的表述错误。C项“狄更斯只喜欢刻画伦敦的阴暗面”,这一表述过于绝对化,所以很显然也是错误的,文章最后几段就有提到他对于伦敦积极一面的描绘。D项“作为社会改革家,狄更斯致力于伦敦的改变”,这一表述夸大了狄更斯的角色,狄更斯更多是通过自己的小说来关注社会现实,警醒人们积极改善不好的方面,所以D项也排除。B项提到“狄更斯的作品有助于伦敦的一些改善”,这是相对于D项更为客观的表述。

    It can be inferred that Charles Francis Adams Jr. ______.
    A

    devoted his later years to classical education

    B

    was an advocate of education in history

    C

    was an opponent to classical education

    D

    regretted diminishing the importance of the distinction


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    分析推理题。由全文最后一句可知,Charles Francis Adams认为,那些顽固的教授认为古典教育是区分一个人受过大学教育与否的重要分界,且任何有损于这一分界重要性的事物从本质上来说都是过分激进的,可能会让社会陷入混乱。但作者在引用这段话时用了regretfully(遗憾地)一词,由此说明Charles Francis Adams是反对古典教育的。故C项为正确答案。

    A

    He wants to get the name right for scientists who are not in the field of exact science.

    He wants to show that scientists can be wrong.

    C

    He just wants to show the tight concept to the confused people.

    D

    He wants to make the concept clear so that people can have the right education.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    态度题作者在文中给出了科学的真正定义,并对此进行了充分的论证,驳斥了很多人对于科学的含混概念。但作者的最终意图并不是要明确科学的概念,他在文中一再提到教育问题,就是不希望错误的科学概念导致教育方向的偏差,故答案为D项。选项A、B、C都不是作者的主要意图,皆可排除。
