1、The decrease in world food prices was a result of（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.a sharp fall in the purchasing power of the consumers

B.a sharp fall in the cost of food production

C.the overproduction of food in the food-importing countries

D.the overproduction on the part of the main food-exporting countries

正確答案:D

答案解析:只要仔細(xì)閱讀，便知道本題的答案可在第2段里找到，因?yàn)樵摱蔚?句指出，由于北美洲連續(xù)兩年出現(xiàn)了特大豐收，而第3年又是豐收在望。因此答案應(yīng)該是選項(xiàng)D。雖然最后一段提到present production is running as 51 percent above pre-war leve1s…，但這不等于說(shuō)，所有進(jìn)口糧食的國(guó)家都糧食生產(chǎn)過(guò)剩，故選項(xiàng)C是錯(cuò)的。文中未提及選項(xiàng)A和B，故這兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)的。

2、What is the main idea of this text?（）【閱讀理解A】

A.The argument whether philosophy will ultimately be solved by science ｏｒnot

B.The importance of learning philosophies, especially the history of philosophy

C.The difference between philosophy ａｎｄ　science

D.A discuss about how to ｓｅｔa proper attitude towards future

正確答案:B

答案解析:主旨題。文章第一段介紹了我們?yōu)槭裁匆獙W(xué)習(xí)哲學(xué);第二段和第三段介紹了哲學(xué)和科學(xué)的聯(lián)系和差別；第四段說(shuō)明了學(xué)習(xí)哲學(xué)的必然性；最后一段總結(jié)了我們?yōu)槭裁匆獙W(xué)習(xí)哲學(xué)。因此，本文的大意應(yīng)是學(xué)習(xí)哲學(xué)的必要性，所以選B。

3、The mother who holds her baby on the left（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.knows that her heart-beat has a calming effect on the baby

B.keeps her dominant arm free fｏｒmanipulations

C.instinctively ｏｒby an unconscious series of trials ａｎｄ　errors soon arrives at the discovery that her baby is more at peace if held on the left against her heart

D.gives the usual fondling, cuddling ａｎｄ　cleaning little comment

正確答案:C

答案解析:主旨題。經(jīng)過(guò)觀察發(fā)現(xiàn)：…the mother, either instinctively ｏｒby an unconscious series of trials ａｎｄ　errors would soon arrive at the discovery that her baby is more at peace if held on the left against her heart, than on the right.“母親或許是本能地，或許是經(jīng)過(guò)一系列的無(wú)意識(shí)的成敗試驗(yàn)后很快發(fā)現(xiàn)，如果她的嬰兒被抱在左側(cè)貼近心臟處，要比抱在右側(cè)乖得多”，因此才有第一段中的現(xiàn)象：80％的母親是左手兜住自己的孩子，把孩子放在自己身體的左側(cè)。因此C正確。

4、According to the passage, doctors are most successful when they are（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.authoritative

B.logical

C.emotional

D.scientific

正確答案:A

答案解析:第四段As fｏｒMedicine, any doctor will confirm that a large part of his job is not clinical treatment but faith healing. His apparently scientific approach enables his patients to believe that he knows exactly what is wrong with them ａｎｄ　exactly what they need to put them right…至于醫(yī)藥，任何一位醫(yī)生都會(huì)確信他的工作在很大程度上不是臨床治療而是信念治療。他看起來(lái)科學(xué)的方法使病人相信醫(yī)生確切知道他們的病情所在以及需要什么加以救治…；最后一段They will dress anyone up in a white coat to appear like an unimpeachable authority or, failing that, they will even be happy with the announcement. 他們會(huì)把任何人包裝成穿白大褂、看起來(lái)像無(wú)可置疑的權(quán)威。因此選A。

5、It is possible to find out if a person has adapted to the changes of routine by measuring his body temperature because（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.body temperature changes when the cycle of sleep ａｎｄ　wakefulness alternates

B.body temperature changes when he changes to night shift ｏｒback

C.the temperature reverses when the routine is changed

D.people have higher temperatures when they are working efficiently

正確答案:D

答案解析:本題考了一個(gè)重要的細(xì)節(jié)：為什么量體溫能看出一個(gè)人是否已經(jīng)適應(yīng)新的工作時(shí)間呢？根據(jù)4第段第3句，正常日班工作時(shí)工作效率高，體溫也稍高。文章接著又說(shuō)，改變工作安排之后，有一個(gè)適應(yīng)過(guò)程，體溫變動(dòng)模式也隨著適應(yīng)程度的變化而變化，效率高時(shí)體溫也高一些。所以選項(xiàng)D是答案。這一點(diǎn)還可以從這一句最后的particularly in terms of performance中看出。選項(xiàng)A不全面，沒(méi)有指出體溫變化與身體的適應(yīng)程度大體上一致這一點(diǎn)，也沒(méi)有指出可以根據(jù)其工作好壞判斷。同樣的道理，選項(xiàng)B和選項(xiàng)C也不對(duì)。
