解析:
A 段中首先引入话题,提出Alan Macfarlane 教授致力于对工业革命的研究,之后使用了两个问句,一是为什么工业革命发生在英国,二是为什么工业革命发生在18世纪末?选项中只有 iv The time and place of the Industrial Revolution 能够概括本段的内容
解析:
B段中,Macfarlane将工业革命的发生比作密码锁,并表示需要大约20种不同的因素才能够引发工业革命。而本句中的factors 正是 vii 选项中 conditions的同义替换。在本段第三句中具体列举了一些工业革命发生所需要的因素:For industry to take off, there needs to be the technology and power to drive factories, large urban populations to provide cheap labour, easy transport to move goods around, an affluent middle-class willing to buy mass-produced objects, a market-driven economy and a political system that allows this to happen,这些关键要素都是vii 选项中 conditions 的具体体现。
解析:
C段首句写到了 missing factors,之后第二句很明确地指出 Tea and beer, two of the nation's favourite drinks, fuelled the revolution,说明 tea and beer 就是首句中的 missing factors,也就是促进工业革命出现的因素。
解析:
D段说到了英国18世纪中叶的一种现象,即1650年到1749年之间人口数量稳定,但之后出现了人口数量的激增。并且人们提出了四种可能的原因。本段内容与i选项的概括相一致,其中本段第四句的 population growth 与i选项 increase in population 含义一致,而第六句中的 possible causes 则对应选项中的reason
解析:
E 段提到了英国人的饮品习惯和疾病之间的关系,其中第六、七、八句写到英国人饮用啤酒,但之后随着费用的增加,穷人转而选择其他饮品,the poor turned to water and gin,这与vi 选项 Changes in drinking habits in Britain 的含义一致
解析:
F段开头便指出 Macfarlane关注日本的情况,并在随后的论述中对日本当时的情况进行了具体的描述,如 also developing large cities, also had no sanitation,随后 Macfarlane 进一步分析了英国人饮茶的历史背景并找到了英国与其他欧洲国家的差异,因此实际上是通过与日本的比较,最终得到结论,这与议选项的表述一致,即 Comparisons with Japan lead to the answer
解析:
G段提出为什么日本没有在工业革命中实现突破,并在第二句对具体原因进行了分析:Macfarlane notes that even though 17th-century Japan had large cities, high literacy rates, even a futures market, it had turned its back on the essence of any work-based revolution by giving up labour-saving devices such as animals, afraid that they would put people out of work. 从中可以看出,由于担心造成失业而放弃了节省劳动力的设备是重要原因,其中 afraid that they would put people out of work 与选项中的fear of unemployment 的同义替换。
Questions 8-13
8 China's transport system was not suitable for industry in the 18th century.
9 Tea and beer both helped to prevent dysentery in Britain.
10 Roy Porter disagrees with Professor Macfarlane's findings.
11 After 1740, there was a reduction in population in Britain.
12 People in Britain used to make beer at home.
13 The tax on malt indirectly caused a rise in the death rate.
我的答案:
正确答案: 8.NOT GIVEN 9.TRUE 10.FALSE 11.FALSE 12.NOT GIVEN 13.TRUE
查看解析
参考译文:在18世纪时,中国的交通运输系统不适合工业
定位词:China
本文中关于China的内容出现在原文B段,因此首先在B段中找到对应信息,然后判断有没有提及关于中国的交通运输系统是否适合工业的内容。通过阅读原文可以发现,并未提及这一信息,因此本题答案为NOT GIVEN。
参考译文:在英国茶和啤酒都有助于预防痢疾。
定位词:tea and beer
本文关于tea and beer的描述出现在原文C段,其中第三句话写到The antiseptic properties of tannin, the active ingredient in tea, and of hops in beer plus the fact that both are made with boiled water allowed urban communities to flourish at close quarters without succumbing to water borne diseases such as dysentery.也就是说茶和啤酒对于痢疾等疾病是有预防作用的,这与题目的表达相一致,因此本题答案为TRUE。
参考译文:Roy Porter不同意Macfarlane教授的发现。
定位词:Roy Porter, Macfarlane
本题出现了人名Roy Porter和Macfarlane,需要首先在原文中找到对应处。可以看到文章C段后半部分提到Macfarlane的推断虽然听上去有些古怪,但人们的态度从怀疑到接受,随后Roy Porter在本段未句出现: Macfarlane's case has been strengthened by support from notable quarters––Roy Porter, the distinguished medical historian, recently wrote a favourable appraisal of his research.他对于Macfarlane观点的态度是afavourable appraisal,说明其态度是非常赞同,这与题目中disagrees with相反。因此,本题答案为FALSE。
参考译文:在1740年之后,英国人口数量出现了减少。
本文D段中出现了1740, 因此需要首先阅读文中的内容,判断有关人口变化的问题是否提及,如果提及,是否人口如题目所言是减少的,原文中的表述为: Between about 1650 and 1740, the population in Britain was static. But then there was a burst in population growth.说明1650到1740年间人口是稳定的,随后人口数量出现了激增,这与题目中a reduction 相反。因此,本题答案是 FALSE。
参考译文:英国人曾经在家制作啤酒。
本题在11题之后,因此答案位置在D段中间部分之后,而第13题中关于tax on malt 的表述位于原文E段倒数第三行, 因此12题位于这部分之前, 在这个区域中,文中对应点关于英国人和beer主要出现在E段中下部分,通过阅读可以发现文中并未涉及英国人在什么地方制作啤酒的问题。因此,本题答案为NOT GIVEN。
参考译文:麦芽的税收间接引发了死亡率的上升。
定位词:tax on malt
本文E段倒数第三行出现了a tax was introduced on malt,通过对上下文的阅读我们可以看到,英国人由于长期以来饮用啤酒,受到了其中抗菌成分的保护,但随着啤酒文中对应点 中主要成分麦芽的税收有所增加,一些人转而饮用其他饮品,随后18世纪70年代时死亡率再次上升。说明由于税收的增加,导致饮品的改变,进而导致死亡率上升,因此可以说题目中的tax on malt间接引发了死亡率上升。因此,本题答案为TRUE。

参考译文:提到家庭背景对有天赋的儿童的影响
定位词:domestic background
A段:For example, a very close positive relationship was found when children's IQ scores were compared with their home educational provision (Freeman, 2010). The higher the children's IQ scores, especially over IQ 130, the better the quality of their educational backup, measured in terms of reported verbal interactions with parents, number of books and activities in their home etc.例如,当儿童的智商分数与 家庭教育情况进行比较时,人们会发现一种非常密切的正相关(Freeman, 2010)。通过测量所报告的同父母间的言语交流、阅读数量和家庭活动等方面,儿童的智商分数越高,尤其是达到智商130以上的时候,他们得到救育保障的质量越好。本题问家庭环境的影响,在文章A段中有对该内容的表述,其中题目中domestic background在原文中的同义替换为home educational provision以及educational backup。因此本题答案为A。
参考译文:提到如果学习者获得过多指导,会失去哪些东西
定位词:lost, too much guidance
D段:Conversely, teachers who have a tendency to 'overdirect' can diminish their gifted pupils' learning autonomy. Although spoon-feeding' can produce extremely high examination| results, these are not always followed by equally impressive life successes Too much dependence on the teacher risks loss of autonomy and motivation to discover.相反地,倾向于“过分指导”的教师会减少有天赋儿童的学习自主性。尽管“填鸭式灌输”可以带来非常高的考试分数,但这并不总是伴随着之后同祥令人满意的生活上的成功。过于依赖老师存在自主性和探索的动机消失的风险。本题首先需要在原文中找到too much guidance,通过对文章的阅读,这一信息出现在文章D段,本段第二句和第四句的"overdirect"和Too much dependence on the teacher都分别表达了这一含义, 而两句话中diminish their gifted pupils' learning autonomy 和loss of autonomy and motivation 都表达了题目中what can be lost的含义。因此本题答案为D。
参考译文:提到焦虑的负面效果
定位词:damaging effects of anxiety
F段:Positive emotions facilitate the creative aspects of learning and negative emotions inhibit, Fear, for example, can limit the development of curiosity, which is a strong force in scientific advance, because it motivates problem-solving behaviour.积极情绪促进学习的创造性而消极情绪会抑制创造力。比如,好奇心是科学进步的重要动力,因为它会促进问题解决的行为,而害怕则会限制好奇心的发展。关于焦虑的负面效果,需要在文中找到关于anxiety的内容,并且此处同时出现关于其造成的负面影响。F段中第二句提到消极情绪会带来负面影响,随后以fear为例进行了具体说明,此处fear相当于题目中的anxiety。因此本题答案为F。
参考译文:关于课堂技术的例子,这些技术对落后社会的儿童有利
定位词:classroom techniques, socially disadvantaged children
D段:There are quite a number of new methods which can help, such as child-initiated learning, ability-peer tutoring, etc. Such practices have been found to be particularly useful for bright children from deprived areas. 有相当多新的有效方式,例如儿童发起的学习,同等能力辅导等。人们发现这类活动对于来自教育落后地区的聪明儿童文中对应点非常有效。本题问到关于classroom techniques的例子,在文章D段中,methods是对techniques的同义替换,而之后的child-initiated learning, ability-peer tutoring是具体的例子,之后的Such practices指代的也是以上具体的例子,本段尾句后半部分be particularly useful for bright children from deprived areas 是对题目中的which favour socially-disadvantaged children的同义替换。因此本题答案为D。

正确答案: 18.B 19.D 20.E 21.A 22.C
查看解析
译文:对于完成精确任务的有天赋的学生,可以花费更少的时间练习。
定位词:Less time, accurate work
本句表达的内容在原文C段出现,即'If they (the gifted) merely think more quickly, then we need only teach more quickly. If they merely make fewer errors, then we can shorten the practice.'此处的make fewer errors与题目中produce accurate work是同义替换,而文中less time can be spent on exercises 相当于文中shorten the practice,这部分内容是Shore和Kanevsky的观点。因此本题答案为B。
译文:自主性是一种有价值的工具,可以帮助有天赋的儿童达到他们的目标。
定位词:self-reliance
本题重点强调了self-reliance 的作用,在文章E段出现了相关的信息:Research with creative scientists by Simonton (1988) brought him to the conclusion that above a certain high level, characteristics such as independence seemed to contribute more to reaching the highest levels of expertise than intellectual skills, due to the great demands of effort and time needed for learning and practice,其中independence与题目中self-reliance是同义替换,对应人名Simonton。因此本题答案为D。
译文:有天赋的儿童知道如何运用自己的情绪来辅助他们的学习。
定位词:feelings, assist their learning
本题说到通过情绪来帮助学习,首先需要在文中找到相关的说法,关于通过情绪帮助学习的表述出现在文章结尾处: In Boekaerts' (1991) review of emotion in the learning of very high IQ and highly achieving children, she found emotional forces in harness. They were not only curious, but often had a strong desire to control their environment, improve their learning efficiency, and increase their own learning resources, 可见,情绪可以有助于学习效率的提高以及获取更多学习资源,此处对应的人名是Bockaerts。 因此本题答案为E。
译文:有天赋的儿童受益于亲属给予的适当支持。
定位词:support from close relatives
本题说到来自于亲属的支持,在原文第一段中出现了相关的内容,即For example, a very close positive relationship was found when children's IQ scores21were compared with their home educational provision (Freeman, 2010),此处的home educational provision 即support from close relatives, 而在原文随后一句也提到了educational backup,这表达是Freeman的观点。因此本题答案为A。
译文:真正成功的学生已经学会大量关于他们专业的知识。
定位词:a considerable amount about their subject
本题提到关于a considerable amount about their subject的内容,因此需要在文章明确标注人名的观点处寻找与专业知识相关的内容,文中E段说到But scientific progress is not all theoretical, knowledge is also vital to outstanding performance: individuals who know a great deal about a specific domain will achieve at a higher level than those who do not (Elshout, 1995),其中a great deal about a specific domain正是题目中a considerable amount about their subject的同义替换,对应人名选择答案即可。因此本题答案为C。

定位词:at home
A段:For example, a very close positiverelationship was found when children's IQ scores were compared with their home educational provision (Freeman,2010). The higher the children's IQ scores, especially over IQ ,130, the better the quality of their educational backup, measured in terms of reported verbalinteractions with parents, number of books and activities in their home etc.
本题问到儿童的智商分数和家庭中某些内容的联系,根据原文我们不难判断这一内容出现在原文A段,题目中的at home这一部分在原文中的对应内容是reported verbal interactions with parents, number of books and activities in their home etc.,而本题需要填人的是两个并列的名词,根据本句和原文句子在含义和内容上的对应,此题答案应为books和activities。
定位词:at home
A段:For example, a very close positiverelationship was found when children's IQ scores were compared with their home educational provision (Freeman,2010). The higher the children's IQ scores, especially over IQ ,130, the better the quality of their educational backup, measured in terms of reported verbalinteractions with parents, number of books and activities in their home etc.
本题问到儿童的智商分数和家庭中某些内容的联系,根据原文我们不难判断这一内容出现在原文A段,题目中的at home这一部分在原文中的对应内容是reported verbal interactions with parents, number of books and activities in their home etc.,而本题需要填人的是两个并列的名词,根据本句和原文句子在含义和内容上的对应,此题答案应为books和activities。
定位词:children of average ability
B段:There appears to be a qualitative difference in the way the intellectually highly able think, compared with more average ability or older pupils, for whom external regulation by the teacher often compensates for lack of internal regulation.
本题问能力一般的儿童需要来自教师的更多指导是因为他们缺少什么,原文中关于children of average ability 的内容出现在B段,从对应位置来看,由于缺少internal regulation (也就是之more direction older pupils, for whom external regulation 后提到的self-regulation) ,这些儿童更需要老师给予external regulation,因此本题答案为internal regulation/self-regulation。
定位词:Metacognition
B段:To be at their most effective in their self-regulation, all children can be helped to identify their own ways of learning metacognition which will include strategies of planning, monitoring, evaluation, and choice of what to learn. Emotional awareness is also part of metacognition, so children should behelped to be aware of their feelings around the area to be learned, feelings of curiosity or confidence, for example.
本题问的是metacognition包括什么,其中出现了并列结构as well as,并且已经给出了并列的两个内容中的一个, 即understanding their own learning strategies, 根据文章B段的内容,可以看到metacognition之后出现了which will include这一内容,因此将之后的内容与题目对应即可,可以看到文中明确出现了并列结构Emotional awareness is also part of metacognition,因此本题答案为emotional awareness。
定位词:impressive grades
D段:Although 'spoon-feeding' can produce extremely high examination results, these are not always followed by equally impressive life successes.
本题问的是教师依赖什么可以获取impressive grades in class tests,因此需要在原文中找到好的考试成绩相关的内容,在文中D段可以看到produce extremely high examination results这一表达,因此可以首先确定答案所在句,然后在句中寻找具体符合题目要求的名词表达,可以看到spoon feeding这种方式会获得好的考试分数,因此本题答案为spoon-feeding。

Museums of fine art and their public
The fact that people go to the Louvre museum in Paris to see the original painting Mona Lisa when they can see a reproduction anywhere leads us to question some assumptions about the role of museums of fine art in today`s world
Questions 27-31
A. institution
B. mass production
C. mechanical processes
D. public
E. paints
F. artist
G. size
H. underlying ideas
I. basic technology
J. readers
K. picture frames
L. assistants
People go to art museums because they accept the value of seeing an original work of art. But they do not go to museums to read original manuscripts of novels, perhaps because the availability of novels has depended on 27 for so long, and also because with novels, the 28 are the most important thing.
However, in historical times artists such as Leonardo were happy to instruct 29 to produce copies of their work and these days new methods of reproduction allow excellent replication of surface relief features as well as colour and 30 .
It is regrettable that museums still promote the superiority of original works of art, since this may not be in the interests of the 31 .
我的答案: 27. 28. 29. 30. 31.
正确答案: 27.B 28.H 29.L 30.G 31.D
查看解析
定位词:availability of novels, so long
第二段第二句:题目问的是人们到博物馆并不需要读到小说最初的手稿,这是由于小说长久依赖依靠什么。这一信息在文章第二段中有涉及,可以看到句中说到the novel has evolved precisely because of technological developments that made it possible to print out huge numbers of texts,也就是说这是由于技术发展使得人们可以print out huge numbers of text,因此在选项中寻找这一表达的同义替换,可以看到B项的mass production与其含义一致,因此本题答案为B。
定位词:novels, the most important thing
第二段第三、四句:本题问到对于小说而言最重要的是什么。文章第二段第三、四句的表述说明很重要的是如何interpreting或是reading作品,同时人们主要关注the meaning of words。按照这一含义分析选项,可以看到H项underlying ideas符合含义,因此本题答案为H。
定位词:Leonardo, happy to instruct, produce copies
第三段第二句:本题出现的结构为instruct____to produce,因此判断此处需填人的内容可能是表示身份的名词。在原文中可以看到第三段第二句的含义与题目所在句一致,都是表达艺术家将作品复制品的工作分配给一些人,原文中使用了apprentices一词,在选项中对应L项assistants,因此本题答案为L。
定位词:surface relief features, colour
第三段第三句:本题问的是新的复制技术使复制品在哪些方而非常出色,并且题目中已经给出了surface relief features和colour两个并列的信息,在原文第三段第三句中寻找相关的要素即可。可以看到句中说到the original scale,因此在选项中寻找同义替换可以看到size一词,因此本题答案为G。
定位词:regrettable,museums still promote
第四段、第五段:本题问到宣传艺术品原始版本的优势所带来的问题。句首的It is regrettable与第五段的Unfortunately相对应,而本段后面的指代词this实际上就是指上段中的museums continue to promote the special status of original work,根据第五段的句型和题目中的表达,可知体验受到限制的人群是visitors, 而本题空前有the这个词,因此可以找到D项,通过the + adj.来表示一类人。题目中the public与visitors同义替换。

正确答案: 32. C 33. D 34. A 35. D
查看解析
译文:作者提到伦敦国家美术馆是为了说明_______。
定位词:London's National Gallery
A一个国家不值得花费如此多成本来维护如巨量的艺术品。
B社会上可能出现的财政和艺术价值之间的冲突。
C博物馆可能存在的关于参观者对自身态度上的负面作用。
D相比大规模的艺术品,更需要关注个体的感受。
本题首先可以通过题目中的London's National Gallery在原文中确定考查区域,之后在这一信息所在的第六段中,分析London's National Gallery出现的目的。通过上下文的分析,可以看到由于艺术品展出的形式以及其价值,参观者会对自身产生负面的感觉,也就是本段最后一句中的"worthlessness"这与C项中的表达一致。因此本题答案为C。
译文:作者说,如今参观者或许不希望评论一件作品是因为
定位词:unwilling to criticize
A他们缺少支持观点所需要的知识。
B他们担心作品有经济意义。
C他们对作品的价值没有真正的概念。
D他们感到自己的个人反应并不重要。
关于参观者不愿意评论作品的原因出现在文章第七段,其中说到Evidently, nothing the viewer thinks about the work is going to alter that value, and so today's viewer is deterred from trying to extend that spontaneous, immediate, self-reliant kind of reading which would originally have met the work, 可见,由于作品的价值很高,人们认为自已的想法和评论不会产生任何影响,因此unwilling to criticise,这与D项的表述一致。因此本题答案为D。
译文:根据作者的观点,参观者的“位移效应”是由_____引起的。
定位词:'displacement effect'
A展出艺术品的种类以及它们被放置的方式。
B不可能长时间观赏特定的艺术作品。
C图画近似的性质以及缺少伟大作品。
D作品不适合被选择进行展出。
题目中的'displacement effect'出现在文章第八段第二句话,本句开头使用This 'displacement effect' is further heightened by这一结构,因此需要在上下文中分析相关的表达,可以看到,这种情况的产生是由于大量的作品在并非为它们创造的环境中同时被展示,选项中A的表述与之一致。因此本题答案为A。
译文:作者说不像其他艺术形式,一幅绘画作品不会。
定位词:unlike other forms of art
A包含与观众的直接接触。
B要求特定的展出地点。
C需要包含其专业性。
D有特定的开始和结束。
关于美术作品与其他艺术形式的差别出现在文章第九段,即A fundamental difference between paintings and other art forms is that there is no prescribed time over which a painting is viewed, 之后又进行了具体的解释,这与D项的表述一致,因此本题答案为D。
Questions 36-40
36 Art history should focus on discovering the meaning of art using a range of media.
37 The approach of art historians conflicts with that of art museums.
38 People should be encouraged to give their opinions openly on works of art.
39 Reproductions of fine art should only be sold to the public if they are of high quality.
40 In the future, those with power are likely to encourage more people to enjoy art.
我的答案:
正确答案: 36.NOT GIVEN 37.NO 38.YES 39.NOT GIVEN 40.NO
查看解析
参考译文:艺术史应当关注使用各种媒介发现艺术品的意义。
定位词:art history
本题关注的是art history通过a range of media来发现艺术品的意义,在文中的表述中,只在第十段说到艺术史学家使用的方法是一种a specialised academic approach devoted to "discovering the meaning' of art within the cultural context of its time,而并没有出现| art history借助a range of media, 因此本题答案为NOT GIVEN。
定位词:approach, art historians, art museums
本题问的是艺术史学家的方法和艺术博物馆的方法是否矛盾。艺术史学家的方法在文章第十段有明确的表述: Consequently, the dominant critical approach becomes that of the art historian, a specialised academic approach devoted to 'discovering the meaning' of art within the cultural context of is time, 后文接着说: This is in perfect harmony with the museum's function,其中in harmony with意思是“与.......协调、一致”,所以二者是一致的,并非相互矛盾,因此本题答案为NO。
参考译文:应当鼓励人们对艺术作品开放性地给出自己的观点。
定位词:give their opinions
从本文最后几段表达的观点来看,由于art historian和art museum, 人们的spontaneous, participatory criticism受到了限制,而作者认为,人们应当更开放地表达自己的观点,其中第十一段写到The museum public like any other audience, experience art more rewardingly when given the confidence to express their views.这与题目的表达一致,因此本题答案为YES。
参考译文:如果具备很高的品质,艺术品的复制品应当仅仅售卖给人们。
定位词:reproduction of fine art
本题问到是否高品质的复制品只应该售卖给人们,通过对第38题出题位置之后部分的阅读可知,文中并没有表达是否售卖的问题,也就是说作者并没有就这个问题表达明确的观点。 因此本题答案为NOT GIVEN。
参考译文:将来,那些有权势的人很有可能去鼓励更多的人欣赏艺术。
定位词:those with power
本题重点问的是those with power,因此需要找到这类人对于艺术的态度,看他们是否鼓励更多的人欣赏艺术。根据文章最后一段的表述,可以看到实际上那些希望维持和控制艺术的人并没有意愿让更多的人欣赏艺术: If appropriate works of fine art could be rendered permanently accessible to the public by means of high-fidelity reproductions, as literature and music already are, the public may feel somewhat less in awe of them. Unfortunately, that may be too much to ask from those who seek to maintain and control the art establishment.此处Unfortunately起到了转折的作用,之后的表达比较明确地说明了这类人的态度。因此本题答案为NO。
