Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too that39。s why it made Nov 16th International Day for Tolerance. But first of all, what is tolerance? According to French philosopher Voltaire, tolerance s the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error。 let us pardon each other39。s fool that is the first law of nature. Very often, people don39。t realize that they39。re intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UN39。s campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don39。t put themselves in the shoes of women. It39。s worth thinking a little about the words tolerance and intolerance. Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we39。re speaking here? To agree to be tolerant of someone isn39。t necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there39。s something wrong with them. Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That39。s the reason we should be tolerant. It39。s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.(1)What39。s the purpose of the UN International Day For Tolerance? A.To arouse people39。s awareness of tolerance among people.B.To celebrate the founding of the UN.C.To solve the problem of global warming.D.To change peopled opinion towards globalization.(2)Why do men behave intolerantly towards women? A.Because men don39。t realize the purpose of the UN.B.Because men are physically stronger than women.C.Because men don39。t appreciate the shoes of women.D.Because men are not willing to understand women.(3)Why is it meaningless to use the words tolerance and intolerance? A.Because they are hard to pronounce in English.B.Because they don39。t express the exact meaning people refer to.C.Because they can39。t be translated into other languages.D.Because they can39。t be used in a respectful way.(4)In what sense is tolerance similar to generosity? A.Humans are advised to treat others better.B.Humans leant to find faults in others.C.Humans need to give something to others,D.Humans will change their attitudes to others.【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)B(4)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了國際寬容日,聯(lián)合國國際寬容日的目的是喚起人們對寬容的意識。(1)考查推理判斷。根據第一段中的“Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too that39。s why it made Nov 16th 39。International Day for Tolerance39。.”可推斷,世界上的人們缺乏包容,因此聯(lián)合國把11月16日設置為“國際寬容日”是為了喚起人們的包容意識。故選A。(2)考查推理判斷。根據第三段中的“But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don39。t put themselves in the shoes of women.”可知,男性對女性不包容是因為他們不愿意設身處地的為女性著想,不愿意理解她們。故選D。(3)考查推理判斷。根據倒數(shù)第二段中的“Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we39。re speaking here? To agree to be 39。tolerant39。 of someone isn39。t necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there39。s something wrong with them.”可知,對某人寬容并不一定是一件值得尊重的事情,某人如果被包容,就暗示著某人有問題,因此推斷使用“寬容”或者“不寬容”是沒有意義的,因為它們不能準確表達人們所指的意思。故選B。(4)考查推理判斷。根據最后一段中的“It39。s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.”可推斷,在我們給與別人諒解時,寬容有點像慷慨。故選C?!军c評】本題考點涉及推理判斷題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,要求考生根據上下文的邏輯關系,進行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。9.閱讀理解 In India, most of the women wear a red dot between their eyebrows. While it is generally taken as an indicator of their marital(婚姻的)status, the practice is primarily related to the Hindu(印度教的)religion. The dot goes by different names in different Hindi dialects, and “bindi is the one that is most monly known. Traditionally, the dot carries no gender restriction Men as well as women wear it. However, the tradition of men wearing it has faded in recent times, so nowadays we see a lot more women than men wearing one. The position of the bindi is standard center of the forehead, close to the eyebrows. It represents a third, or inner eye. Hindu tradition holds that all people have three eyes The two outer ones are used for seeing the outside world, and the third one is there to focus inward toward God. As such, the dot means piety(虔誠)and serves as a constant reminder to keep God in the front of a believer39。s thou ghts. Red is the traditional color of the dot. It is said that in ancient times a man would place a drop of blood between his wife39。s eyes to seal their marriage. According to Hindu beliefs, the color r
