一、阅读理解(共1道小题,共25.0分)
1. (错误)    How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
    The power of words, then, lies in their associations----the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.
    Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar(粗俗的).
1. One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings was that ________.
A. they could express actions and things

A. The more we read and learn, the more words mean to us.
B. The more we read and learn, the more knowledge we will acquire.
C. The more we read and learn, the more learned we are.

得分:[0, 5, 0, 0, 0]
提示:[1]B.细节题。本题问“人类发明某些声音来表达思想和感情的原因之一是_______。”中心词是“invented certain sounds”,经过定位我们发现答案在第一段的第二句话。该句大意是“我们所知道的就是,和动物不同,人类创造了某些语音来表达思想和情感,行为和事物,这样人们就可以相互进行交流了。后来人们又对某些标记达成了一致,这些标记就是字母。字母可以组合在一起表达语音,也可以被写下来。”据此,可知B完全符合原句的意思。
[2]C.细节题。本题问“下面关于单词的说法哪一个是正确的?”中心词就是“words”,答案在第一段的最后一句。该句大意是“这些语音,不管是口头的还是文字的,就被我们称作单词。”据此,可知C是答案。
[3]A.是非题。本题问“下面哪一个句子不正确?”解决是非题,第一步需要我们先来浏览一下选项。A的意思是“我们阅读和学习的越多,那么词汇可以表达的意思就越多。”这句话的中心词是“the more we read and learn”,经过定位后我们可以在第二段的最后一句发现这些字眼。但是该句话的意思和A是十分不同的,该句大意是“我们阅读和学习的越多,那么可以表达意思的词汇数目也就会越多。”据此,可知A就是错误的,A就是我们的答案。这里的难点就是“the more… the more…”这个结构,该结构的意思是“越……就越……”。这个结构中的“more”在实际使用中可以换成相应的比较级。例如:
  The more you listen to English, the easier it becomes.越是多听,英语也就会变得越容易。
  B的意思是“我们阅读和学习的越多,我们获得的知识就越多。”C的意思是“我们阅读和学习的越多,我们就更有知识。”D的意思是“我们阅读和学习的越多,我们就变得更有文化。”其实,B、C、D的意思是一样的。
[4]A.细节题。本题问“在表达思想时,伟大的作家能够________。”中心词是“great writer”,答案在最后一段的第一句和第二句。这两句话大意是“伟大的作家不仅有伟大的思想,而且还可以用对读者的意识和情感极具诱惑的词汇来表达这些思想。他们对词语的这种迷人和生动的运用被我们称为文学风格。”据此,可知答案是A。
[5]C.细节题。本题问“如果我们_______,那么我们的话语就会显得特别愚蠢。”中心词是“make our speech silly”,答案在最后一段的最后一句。该句大意是“因此,我们必须仔细的选择词汇而且要准确地使用它们 ,否则我们的话语会显得愚蠢和粗俗。”据此,答案是C(不准确地使用词汇)。
