    [B] the last decision

    [C] the crucial point

    [D] a brave engagement


    正确答案:C
    本题考查词义理解。crisis一词出现在全文最后一句。该句指出它是一个点(point)。由其上文即倒数第二句可知,在这个点上主人公会完成一个行为或者做出一个决定,这个决定必然使他进入进一步发展轨迹(造成某些一般结果的点)。可见,crisis指的是戏剧中决定情节发展的关键性的转折点,而不是“时刻”、“决定”或“约定”。[C]正确。

    B


    正确答案:
    解析: 文中最后一段指出:73 percent of a group of randomly selected fathers agreed strongly that “their families are the most important facet of their lives”; 可见大多数男人都承认家庭对他们来说是最重要的,而且文中并没有表现出男人们说这些话是言不由衷的,因此该命题不正确。

  • 第12题:

    单选题
    What does the author imply by the final statement: “If that library had not burned down, maybe archeologists today would not have to spend so much of their time sorting through ancient trash!”?
    A

    The author implies that if the library had not burned down, archeologists would be able to appreciate the full cultural legacy of King Ptolemy II Philadelphos.

    B

    The author implies that if the library had not burned down, scholars today would have not only the full works of Posidippus, but also those of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides.

    C

    The author implies that if the libravv had not burned down, the scrolls contained within the library would have decomposed before modern times in any event, because they would not have been preserved in the dry heat of the desert.

    D

    The author implies that if the library had not burned down, it might have contained more complete details about the life and culture of Hellenistic Egypt than can be found in the papyrus fragments from ancient refuse dumps.

    E

    The author implies that if the librarv had not burned down, the cultural awakening of the Renaissance might have occurred centuries earlier.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    推断题。文章内容中提到纸莎草碎片一般是在古代垃圾中找到,它们为不能在其他史料中找到的人们日常生活进行了描述。所以可知本文最后一句话是作者在暗示,如果该图书馆没有被烧毁,那么考古学家可能可以从中找到关于人们日常生活的记录,而不用去生活垃圾中寻找,故D项的表述是正确的。

    each presents one side of the background information of the dead

    D

    both present the author’s disagreements with the inscription

    a reconsideration of the obligations of universities to society.

    C

    neutrality in value judgment in higher education.

    D

    moral inspection of the staff and the courses they offer.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    推理判断题。be for…意为“支持……”,第二段第五句提到“Just the opposite…”,即对前面三个问句的否定回答,因此作者同意教师及所授课程应受到审视,故D项正确;同时可推断出作者并不赞同高等教育中的道德中立,故C项排除;该段并未提到“the course of religious doctrines…”,属于无中生有,故A选项错误;该段最后一句提到“A university that refuses to take moral dilemmas seriously violates its basic obligations to society.”,即Bok认为一所拒绝严肃对待道德窘境的大学就是违背了其对社会基本的责任,重点在于大学要审视是否严肃对待道德窘境,而不是重新审视大学对社会的责任,故B选项错误。

    reputation                        

    D

    正确答案: A
    解析:
    前面提及一些学校只招男生或女生的情况,因而由“this kind of segregation”可推断即指这种情况。segregation应为“分离,分开”之意。故A项为正确答案。

  • 第23题:

    C

    presents a new scientific fact

    D

    文章首段在讲到highly creative art和highly creative science的区别时,提到innovative science会提出新的propositions(观点,见解),并以此为依据把不同的现象以更加coherent的方式联系起来,并通过把这些现象转化为数据来构成或测试一项新理论。因此D项概括了上述内容。
