10、ealing with the academic affairs of the university第 2页 共 6页C. evaluating students performance by bringing them before acourtD. keeping up the students enthusiasm for social activities 1.C 由文章第 1 段可知，每个学生每学期要上 4 到 5 门课，每门课每周有 3 节，由此可知学生每周要上 12-15 节课，因此一个学生每个星期至少要上12 节课,故选 C。 2.C 文章首段最后一句提到，学生在攻读学位期间可

11、以在两所不同的学校上课，C 与之相符。A、B 在原文中未提及，D 错在 two degrees，原文只是说在不同的学校上课，并非在不同的学校获得学位。 3.C 文章第 2 段第 2 句的 all this 指的是前一句提到的学生所修的每一门课的成绩都会记录下来给未来的雇主看，即这将影响他们将来的就业，C 与之相符。A“遵守校方纪律”文中有提及，但跟所问的问题无关;B 说的对象是有些学生，且也跟问题无关;D 文中并未提及。 4.A 文章最后一段末句明确指出，担任过领导职位的学生很受人尊敬，对他将来的事业也很有利，A 与之相符。 5.A 本题的解题关键是第 2 段第 4 句，该句中的 the ef

12、fective workof maintaining discipline 可知 A 正确。A 中的 observe universityregulations 与文中的 maintain discipline 对应，故正确。 People become quite illogical when they try to decide what can beeaten and what cannot beeaten. If you lived in the Mediterranean, forinstance, you would consider octopus a greatdelicacy

13、. You would notbe able to understand why some people find it repulsive. On theotherhand, your stomach would turn at the idea of frying potatoes inanimal fat - the normallyaccepted practice in many northerncountries. The sad truth is that most of us have beenbrought up toeat certain foods and we stic

There are countless people who,ever since theirearly years, have learned to associate snails with food. My friend,Rob

15、ert, livesin a country where snails are despised. As his flat isin a large town, he has no garden of hisown. For years he has beenasking me to collectsnails from my garden and take them to him.Theidea never appealed to me very much, but one day, after heavy shower,I happened to bewalking in my garde

16、n when I noticed a huge number ofsnails taking a stroll on some of myprize plants. Acting on a suddenimpulse, I collected several dozen, put them in a paperbag,and tookthem to Robert. Robert was delighted to see me and equally pleasedwith my littlegift. I left the bag in the hall and Robert and I we

B.they learn to eat certain foods in their families C.they have different understanding of delicacy D.they are too illog

22、ical to e 某 plain 1.A 词义推断题。解答本题的关键首先要理解 repulsive 前面的 it 是指上一句的 octopus，由 On the otherhand 可知第 2 句和第 3 句描述的是人们对章鱼作为食物的两种相反的反应，而与 a great delicacy 相反的是 A，故 A 为正确答案。 2.B 推理判断题。在第 2 段中查找到作者有一天在阵雨后散步发现蜗牛爬在他那些 prize plants 上面，所以才突然有了去抓蜗牛的冲动。理解 prize在此意为“一流的，珍视的”，便可知作者当时很生气，由此可确定答案为B。第 5页 共 6页 3.C 事实细节题。

23、本题考査复合句的理解。第 2 段第 1 句“Nocreature.more.than snails”表达的是最高级概念，即：Snails havereceived most praise and abuse 由此可知，蜗牛是最具争议性的食物，因此C 就是该句的近义替换。作者没有把蜗牛与章鱼或炸土豆作比较，因此 A 和 D不对;文中提到在朋友的居住地，蜗牛是没人瞧得上的，但没有提到在作者的家乡是否受欢迎，因此 B 也不对。 4.A 主旨大意题。文章第 1 句话其实是全文的主题句，说明人们对于选择吃什么、不吃什么是没有什么章法的，暗示了人们在饮食方面有大相径庭的喜好，接着用了数个具体例子说明，并着

24、重以蜗牛为例，阐明这种差异。英语习语“One mans meat is another mans poison”形象地表达了这一观点。本题最具干扰性的是 B，文章在第 1 段谈到饮食有差异，这涉及到了culture,但作者并没花太多笔墨描述各国不同的文化，因此，culture 并非本文的中心。另外，D 的表达与文章第 1 句很相似，但是 D 说的是人们在美食面前会丧失理智，与第 1 句的意思其实相差甚远，且并非文章要阐明的主题。 5.B 推理判断题。本题考查表语从句的理解。从第 1 段的最后一句中“most of us have been brought upto eat certain foods”可推断 B 为不同的人喜好不同食物的最主要原因。A 最具干扰性,它也是原因之一，但住在同一个地方的人也会有不同的饮食差异，所以还是因为家庭的原因所造成的。第 6页 共 6页
