【正文】 and forth until you run out of time，寫作者必須和時間賽跑，才能在時間用完時將文章修改完畢。因此，作家們的共同問題應該是修改時間過緊。 　　A，它過于強調創(chuàng)造思維。強調創(chuàng)造思維是自由寫作本身的特點，這個不是問題，因過于強調而造成的修改時間過多才是問題。 　　B，用來修改的時間過多。這一說法符合我們前面所做的分析。 　　C，它會引來太多的批評。根據文意，正確的說法應該是會引來太多需要運用批判思維進行修改的地方。 　　D，自由寫作不能幫助作家清楚地思考。自由寫作的特點是幫助作家把最初最原始的想法記錄下來，這一步并不要求清楚地思考，也就不對作家們構成問題。“清楚地思考”要留待第二步——批判思維來實現。 　　61. A 　　題目問批判性思維在作家的寫作過程中起到了什么作用。相關內容在最后二段。倒數第二段第一句Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly，指出在獲得前期資料后，即是運用批判性思維的時候。下一段整段對如何運用批判性思維進行了描述，從中可以發(fā)現批判性思維的主要作用是對文章草稿進行修改、精煉。 　　A，它使文章更加成形。也就是對文章草稿進行修改、精煉的意思，符合最后一段對批判思維的描述。 　　B，它能使作家產生新的想法。根據文意，批判思維是對現有想法的修改，不會產生新的想法。　　C，它可以節(jié)省作者的寫作時間。倒數第二段提到this will take more time than you actually have，意思是在運用批判思維前很可能會發(fā)現時間不夠用，那么批判思維有沒有節(jié)省時間呢？從“Move back and forth until you run out of time……”這最后一句話可以看出，即便運用批判性思維，還是把所有的時間都用光了。因此并沒有節(jié)省時間。 　　D，它可使作者坐下來審視文章。坐下來審視文章的意思就是運用批判性思維本身，不能說本身會對本身起到什么作用。Passage Two 　　I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of spacetime and the nature of black holes. 　　At 19, when I began studying astrophysics, it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my . at MIT and then as a postdoctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed through the lens of gender (性別) politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus (相對于) right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind. 　　Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually bee my reply to any and all provocations: I don’t talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory. 　　Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how may of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t dismiss those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about. 　　62. Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again? 　　A) She feels unhappy working in maledominated fields. 　　B) She is fed up with the issue of gender discrimination. 　　C) She is not good at telling stories of the kind. 　　D) She finds space research more important.（B） 　　63. From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would attribute the author’s failures to ________. 　　A) the very fact that she is a woman 　　B) her involvement in gender politics 　　C) her overconfidence as a female astrophysicist 　　D) the burden she bears in a maledominated society（A） 　　64. What did the author constantly fight against while doing her . and postdoctoral research? 　　A) Lack of confidence in succeeding in space science. 　　B) Unfair accusations from both inside and outside her circle. 　　C) People’s stereotyped attitude toward female scientists. 　　D) Widespread misconceptions about nature and nurtured.（C） 　　65. Why does the author feel great satisfaction when talking about her class? 　　A) Female students no longer have to bother about gender issues. 　　B) Her students’ performance has brought back her confidence. 　　C) Her female students can do just as well as male students. 　　D) More female students are pursuing science than before.（D） 　　66. What does the image the author presents to her students suggest? 　　A) Women students needn’t have the concerns of her generation. 　　B) Women have more barriers on their way to academic success. 　　C) Women can balance a career in science and having a family. 　　D) Women now have fewer problems pursuing a science career.（C） 　　這是一篇與性別歧視有關的文章，講的是女性應該如何面對性別歧視的問題。作者以第一人稱的形式，以親身的經歷來說明女性在面對性別歧視時應該采取不屑一顧的態(tài)度。 　　全文一共四個大段，開篇為I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again，以“again”一詞造成懸疑，引起讀者對原因的探究，而后整個第一段敘述了相對于這一again的上一次作者面對性別問題時的態(tài)度；并解釋了原因是興趣不在于此（I never found them interesting）。 　　第二段開始初步為“again”釋疑，敘述了作者從最初對性別問題的超然態(tài)度（it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom）轉變?yōu)榉e極捍衛(wèi)女性利益態(tài)度（I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind）的過程。 　　第三段進一步為“again”釋疑，敘述作者重又悟出應回歸超然態(tài)度的心理經歷。從Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory這一問一答可以看出，雖然多年過去，但作者用以對付性別問題這一心理重擔的利器依然是興趣（don’t study sociology or political theory）。 　　最后一段敘述了作者重歸超然態(tài)度后如何教導學生正確地面對性別問題。在有些學生因性別問題（如何在科學研究和生兒育女間的愿望之間做出選擇）而憂慮時，作者以身言教（heavily pregnant doing physics experiments），告訴學生們應該忘記性別問題。作者的表率起了作用，像她們的老師一樣，學生們把精力完全放在了興趣上面（45 women driven by a love of science）。 　　文章的內容雖然涉及了社會問題，但切入角度是主觀第一人稱，語言修辭上更為接近散文（essay）的風格，所以相對于議論文、說明文較容易理解。 　　62. B 　　題目問作者為什么不想再一次談論作為一個女科學家的感受。四個選項的意思是： 　　A，工作在一個男性主導的領域里讓她感到不快樂。 　　B，她對性別歧視問題感到厭倦了。 　　C，她不善于講述此類故事。 　　D，她發(fā)現太空研究更為重要。 　　文章第一段就講述了作者不愿再評論自己作為女科學家的事實。這一段的意思是這樣的： 　　我不想再一次談論我作為女性科學家的事情。在我的人生中，有那么一段時間，人們總是問我，在一個被男性主導的領域中工作都會發(fā)生什么故事。我從來都不善于 給他們講述那些故事，因為，說真的，我覺得那些故事一點意思也沒有。讓我覺得有意思的是宇宙的起源，時空的形狀，和黑洞的本質。 　　結合全文來看，第二段敘述作者曾經陷入女性主義的熾熱情緒當中，
