【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 ieroglyphics(象形文字). Careful work can bring previously lost wisdom back to life. However, the key point is that there is a certain cultural continuity with those ancient times that allows us to reason and make progress in the dark: we know we are dealing with the legacy(遺產(chǎn))of other humans. Without that link, the survival of objects and raw data doesn39。t guarantee the survival of knowledge. And a lack of continuity in language with any future intelligence would be a barrier. Knowledge is closely connected with language. When a language dies out, we can lose systems of reasoning that they contain. If that39。s lost, then it can39。t be recovered. All this means that other minds might not be able to fully make human knowledge alive when we are gone. It is better to concentrate on not dying out in the first place.（1）How many opinions are mentioned in ? A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.（2）What does the underlined phrase similar things in Para 3 probably refer to? A.Making lost wisdom alive again.B.Rescuing disappearing knowledge.C.Preserving future knowledge.D.Gaining new knowledge.（3）How can we make knowledge survive? A.We know a lot about human beings.B.We learn ways to draw conclusions.C.We have a certain cultural continuity.D.We protect the legacy of other humans.（4）What39。s mainly talked about in the text?

But if information survives, perhaps in books or hard drives, maybe the knowledge isn39。t quite dead but dormant(休眠), ready to bee alive with the help of other minds that develop over time or e to visit Earth in the distant ，在第二段中提出了兩種建議，故答案為B(2)詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段中第二、三句For example, we saved an ancient puter from a ship destroyed at sea off the southern coast of Greece, and succeeded in finding the meaning of Egyptian hieroglyphics(象形文字). Careful work can bring previously lost wisdom back to ，細心的工作可以將以前失去的智慧帶回生活。由此推知，上句At first sight, that seems to be reasonable: after all, we have done similar things with past ，讓失去的智慧活躍起來。故選A。(3)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句However, the key point is that there is a certain cultural continuity with those ancient times that allows us to reason and make progress in the dark: we know we are dealing with the legacy(遺產(chǎn))of other ，我們有一定的文化延續(xù)性能使知識幸存。故選C。(4)主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段The year 3700, Earth is far too hot for any human to call it home. On this planet at least, man is nothing more than a memoryif there is anything left to remember the wise man. But what about our wisdomwill any of it survive us?可知，本文講述的是，我們的智慧將會幸存嗎？根據(jù)句意可知答案為B【點評】考查閱讀理解，涉及推理判斷、猜測詞義、細節(jié)理解、主旨大意題。閱讀時要注意作者說明事物采用的是什么方式。例如：舉例、分類還是對比。無論采用什么方法，作者都是為了說明事物的本質(zhì)特征，清晰地展現(xiàn)說明的事物。理清了脈絡(luò)，就能理解文章，抓住原文中的信息點，并且和選項進行同意轉(zhuǎn)換。5．閱讀理解 To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor。 you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience。 you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasant voice which is fully under your control。 and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear. Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he doesn39。t sit still before his class。 he stands the whole time he is teaching。 he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. There are very important differences between the teacher39。s work and the actor39。s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart。 he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand(預先).What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience take an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don39。t understand anything, they say so. The teacher can39。t learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along. I have known many teachers who are fine actors in class but are unable to take part in a stageplay because they can39。t keep strictly to what another has written.（1）From the passage, we know______. good teacher should be a good actor. good teacher may be unable to act well on the stage. good actor should be a good teacher. good actor may act well in class.（2）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? good teacher should speak clearly. good teacher should sit still before his class and speak with his body language. good actor should speak as others have asked him to do. good actor should repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part.（3）The skills of a good teacher are ______ . his students39。 attention. his voice when needed. out what he is teaching. the above.（4）The title (標題)of the passage is ______. to be a good teacher. to be a good actor. good teacher39。s knowledge. good actor39。s behavior.【答案】 （1）B（2）B（3）D（4
