【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 t Earth in the distant future. At first sight, that seems to be reasonable: after all, we have done similar things with past knowledge. 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 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?

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(xì)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(xì)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(diǎn)評】考查閱讀理解，涉及推理判斷、猜測詞義、細(xì)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(diǎn)，并且和選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行同意轉(zhuǎn)換。5．閱讀理解 Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don39。t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn39。t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly pared. They also enjoyed games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the pickingup of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself. Grownups can hardly find children39。s game exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple game again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinary afraid. He bees a leader when it es to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught. It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.（1）What is true about children when they play games?
