Question

【題目】

How are you getting on with your study? Maybe you are the best in your class. In the last few exams one or two even several classmates have got higher marks than you. How do you feel? Are you jealous of them? Are you grateful to them? Please think it over after reading the following text. You will probably learn a lot.

Once a zoologist worked on antelopes (羚羊) which were living on both sides of a river in the Republic of South Africa. He discovered that the antelopes on the east side multiplied (繁殖) more quickly and ran faster than those on the west.

The zoologist was puzzled after long thought about the difference. As two groups of antelopes lived in the same environment and they fed on the same kind of grass.

One year, with the help of the Animal Protecting Society, he caught ten antelopes on each side and exchanged them. A year later, the ten antelopes sent to the west bank multiplied by fourteen while only three of the ones sent to the east remained. Where are the other seven? They had been eaten by wolves!

At last the zoologist understood why the antelopes on the east were stronger. That was because on the east side there were living a group of wolves ---their natural enemy!

Now everything is plain sailing in your life. It's your opponents (對手) that you are improving indeed, so thanks must go to your opponents. It's a true!

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】C

【3】D

【解析】

兩群羚羊生活在同樣的環(huán)境中，吃同樣的草。生活在東邊的羚羊的數(shù)量越來越多，而西邊羚羊的數(shù)量越來越少。原因是生活在東邊的羚羊面臨著一群狼。故事告訴我們是對手讓我們變得更強大，因此，我們要感謝對手。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句話“He discovered that the antelopes on the east side multiplied (繁殖) more quickly and ran faster than those on the west.”可知，河東邊的羚羊比河西邊的羚羊繁殖的快。故選B。

【2】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第一段“In the last few exams one or two even several classmates have got higher marks than you. How do you feel? Are you jealous of them? Are you grateful to them?”意為“在過去的幾次考試中，有一個甚至幾個同學比你分數(shù)更高，你是什么感覺？”可猜測，理所當然的會羨慕嫉妒，所以這個詞是嫉妒的意思。故選C。

【3】大意概括題。根據(jù)最后一段“Now everything is plain sailing in your life. It's your opponents (對手) that you are improving indeed, so thanks must go to your opponents. It's a true!”可知，現(xiàn)在的生活一帆風順，是因為對手幫助你提高的，所以要感謝對手。故選D。

做“選擇型閱讀理解”一定要有的放矢，帶著問題去閱讀�？忌�最好先把文章后的問題瀏覽一遍，并把問題中的一些關鍵詞圈出來，然后帶著問題閱讀。第一遍可以采取略讀和快速閱讀的方法，把可能是答案的地方畫出來，然后對照每個小題選擇的范圍，提高準確率。

閱讀理解常見問題的類型如下：

（1）客觀具體性問題。這類型的問題比較簡單，屬于識字得分題，通�？稍谠�文原句中找到答案，如事情發(fā)生的時間，地點或原因；

（2）判斷推理性問題。這類型問題的常見提問方式包括猜測作者的意圖（purpose/aim），推測可能會產生的結果，判斷信息的正誤（true/not true）。這類型問題的答案通常不能從文章中直接獲取，需要結合語境，作者的態(tài)度和目的，歸整分散的信息，然后進行分析判斷或者合理的推測。對于含有only，all，every，never，none，no one等絕對化表達的選項要分外留意；

（3）概括性問題。這類型問題的常見提問方式包括文章的標題（title）、大意（main idea）和結論（conclusion）等。這類問題比上一類難，不能直接得出答案。必須在理解全文的基礎上，對信息進行歸納整合。做這類型的題目時，先采取排除法，縮小范圍后，聯(lián)系上下文。排除片面的選項，選擇最具概括性或總結性的答案。
