Question

One day, I received a call from a colleague. He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem ，while the student claimed a perfect score. I was elected as their arbiter( 仲裁人).I read the examination problem： “Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(氣壓計).” The student had answered： “Take the barometer to the top of the building，attach a long rope to it，lower it to the street，and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of it is the height of the building. ”
The student had really answered the question completely ，but the answer didn’t confirm his competence in physics. I suggested the student try again. I gave him six minutes to answer the question, warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. Five minutes later, he said he had many answers and clashed off one, which read： “Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula (公式）to calculate the height of the building. ”
At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldn’t help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others ，and then added₅ “Probably the best is to take the barometer to the. administrator and said to him，' Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, I will give it to you.，”
Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did ，but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.
The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over ,the world. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.

解析試題分析：文章從一個學(xué)生的物理答案得0分說起，得出的結(jié)論是應(yīng)該允許學(xué)生自由地思考。
【小題1】推理題：從第一段的句子：可知這個學(xué)生的答案沒有涉及到物理方面的知識。選D
【小題2】細節(jié)題：從最后一段的句子：Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did ，可知這個學(xué)生知道這個問題的答案。選A
【小題3】推理題：從最后一段的句子：but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.可知學(xué)生應(yīng)該被允許自由地思考。選C
【小題4】推理題：從倒數(shù)第二段的句子:but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.可知Bohr對高中的生活是批評的。選B 。
考點：考查故事類短文
點評：文章從一個學(xué)生的物理答案得0分說起，得出的結(jié)論是應(yīng)該允許學(xué)生自由地思考。內(nèi)容比較適中，對于考生的能力要求不高，只要認(rèn)真細致閱讀，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)答案�？梢韵瓤搭}目再讀文章，這樣可以提高閱讀的速度。還要準(zhǔn)確定位考點。特別是推理題，要結(jié)合上下文的暗示做題，掌握方法是關(guān)鍵。
