【解题导语】文章用插叙顺序的主线,通过一位中年女士对20年前一次科学课程的回忆,从侧面揭示出教育如何让人的生活更加成功。本文蕴含了对教育方式与方法的讨论。
36.【答案】C
【解析】考查名词,本段上文出现了名词education (教育),下一段中出现了professor和jar, 貌似是教授在做实验,于是选择c。而文章在最后一句说“and I haven’t gone near science since.”也印证了选择education(教育)。
37.【答案】D
【解析】考查动词词组,根据动作的先后顺序,教授把阔口罐放在桌子前应该已经在讲堂里了,于是排除A、B; get through的含义从介词through,是通过、穿过的意思,那么自然不靠谱,最终选择D, March into含义是“行军、走过”。
38.【答案】B
【解析】考查动词,根据后文wildly wrong guesses的提示,选择B。
39.【答案】
【解析】考查动词,该动做的发出者是the professor,那么教授对大家的猜测只能是听到,选择D。
40【答案】C
【解析】考查形容词,修饰名词answer,实验是教授做的,那么他说出的数目自然是正确的。
41【答案】A
【解析】考查动词,该动作是学生对课程做出的,那么自然是在学习课程,选择A。
42【答案】选择B
【解析】考查动词,根据上面的叙述,显然教授想说的是不要相信自己的感觉,于是选择B。
43【答案】D
【解析】考查名词,本段开始用了“二十年后”作为开头,说明叙事一直是连贯的,而自首段提出本文叙述的任务就是the woman,选择D。
44【答案】C
【解析】考查动词,教授会对自己做出的动作首先不会是“尊重”和“服务”,排除B、D无关选项。而根据后句的说明,邀请学生开始一次兴奋的航程去为之世界,这是他自己认为的事情。Describe(描述)是与后文中该与确定的事实连用,而对此处显然不适用。选择C。本题难。
45【答案】A
【解析】考查名词,学生对未知世界开启的是一次航程,而非“运动”、“改变”亦或者“匆忙冲进”,
于是选择A
46【答案】B
【解析】考查名词,解题关键是invisible,并且给出了中文注释。中文注释是必须关注的,给出中文注释的词未必是大家不认识的,但必须是解题的关键,本题就是完全的体现,对于什么而言是无形的,形状自然是眼睛看到的,于是选择B本题难。
47【答案】D
【解析】考查名词,因为我们说过三段开始由“二十年后”引出,说明前后段逻辑紧密,而前一段说明的事情是我们不能相信自己的感觉做科学,于是本题中能够发现那个肉眼无法识别的无形未知世界的绝不是“感觉”或者“精神”,排除B、C;而model的含义是“模型”,显然的无关选项,排除;最终选择D,科学的方法。
48【答案】A
【解析】考查动词,even是一个强烈的递进关系词,那么根据语义,相比不能接受这些邀请更加强烈的情况是不去听这些邀请。
49【答案】B
【解析】考查动词,女孩十七岁,正是刚开始认识世界的年纪,选择B.
50.【答案】A
【解析】考查动词,与之相关的是后局的内容:“她的第一感觉会是正确的”,对这件事情她没有“证明”或者“解释”,自然可排除C、D,无关选项,而她对自己的第一选择是绝对的相信的。
51.【答案】C
【解析】考查名词,女孩认为第一感觉是正确的。选D。growth成长strength力量faith信念。
52.【答案】C
【解析】考查形容词,教授使女孩认为第一感觉是错误的。
53.【答案】B
【解析】考查名词,为了知道未知世界,我手中唯一的是工具,于是选择B。其他选择项不合理。
54.【答案】C
【解析】考查形容词,and提示文章此处是并列关系,而与感觉渺小并列的是感觉害怕,cruel的含义是“残忍的”,语义自然不合适,排除。
55.【答案】A
【解析】考查动词,被教授伤害后,我对这个科目能做的动作显然不是“开始学习”或者“通过”,
于是排除B、C;而missed的含义是“失去”,无关选项;选择A,“放弃”。
完形填空。阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

On that afternoon, 39 the math teacher started to introduce difficult concepts, dark clouds
covered the sky, and the storm set in. Hard though she tried to make the kid, 40 , the thunder won the battle for their attention. No one 41 the concepts. Except for Joe. He understood them and answered all the questions correctly.

That is why exercise has been shown to 53 your self-respect.
