Attending schools abroad has many advantages. First, by looking at our own country from outside, we can best see the strong points and weak points of our nation and therefore broaden our minds. Second, while studying in a foreign country, we can travel widely, visiting famous scenic spots and making friends with the local people. Third, we can use the foreign language in our daily life so that our ability in that language may be improved quickly. But the most important is to learn advanced(先進(jìn)的) science and technology. For all these advantages, it is really worthwhile to go abroad for education. However, as everything has two sides, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign university. The most serious problem is the language barrier(障礙). Most of the students who are ready to go abroad do not prepare themselves well for the new language environment. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the instructors are saying in class. Besides, for not knowing about the customs and way of life of the local people, they may run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Therefore, misunderstandings often arise. Furthermore, the cost of living is much higher than that in our country, so most students have to find parttime jobs in order to help support themselves. Faced with these difficulties, many students find themselves unable to pay full attention to their studies and some students may even fail in their courses and learn little. Therefore, given an opportunity to attend a school abroad, one must consider the factors carefully before making up his mind. On the one hand, it is a good thing to go and study abroad. But on the other hand, one must not neglect(忽視) the disadvantages.（1）According to the passage, the following are all advantages of studying abroad EXCEPT __________. A.having more chances to get good jobsB.improving foreign language ability quicklyC.visiting wellknown places of interestD.learning very modern science and technology（2）The underlined word instructors in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________. （3）According to the passage, why do some students find parttime jobs? they want to learn more skills in a different country. they want to make full use of their time. they are not interested in studying. they have to support themselves.（4）The passage mainly tells us that __________. abroad is a good way to learn more has two sides should think twice before going abroad abroad has more advantages than disadvantages【答案】 （1）A（2）B（3）D（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了出國學(xué)習(xí)的壞處和好處，旨在告誡人們對(duì)出國學(xué)習(xí)要慎重考慮，不能盲目跟風(fēng)。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的we can travel widely，visiting famous scenic spots及 our ability in that language may be improved quickly. But the most important is to learn advanced（先進(jìn)的）science and technology 可知，出國學(xué)習(xí)可以提高我們的外語能力、參觀著名景點(diǎn)和學(xué)習(xí)先進(jìn)的科學(xué)技術(shù)，而沒有提及有更多的機(jī)會(huì)找到好工作，故選A。 （2）考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第三段中的saying in class可知，他們很難理解講師在課堂上所說的話，由此可知畫線詞詞義為老師，故選B。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的so most students have to find parttime jobs in order to help support themselves可知，很多學(xué)生找兼職工作是為了養(yǎng)活他們自己，故選D。 （4）考查主旨大意。通讀全文可知，文章主要分析了出國學(xué)習(xí)的利弊，根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知，文章旨在說明對(duì)出國學(xué)習(xí)要慎重考慮，不能盲目跟風(fēng)，故選C。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測(cè)和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。6．閱讀理解 Ask any new college graduate about his immediate goals, and it is likely that he will tell you he wants a job. But it turns out that today39。s students are not going to be satisfied with any job. According to the latest survey, making a difference through their work is essential(必要的) to young people39。s happiness.
