University beckoned for 212 of them. The remaining 170 chose vocational training and a job. ”原始組中有382人就讀中等學校，這些人是研究人員重點關注的對象。其中212名被大學錄取，剩下的170人選擇職業(yè)培訓或參加工作。根據(jù)下文“The remaining 170 chose vocational training and a job.”從而可以猜測出beckoned for為召喚；吸引 之意。故選B。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“However, it was not the case that university broadened minds. Rather, work seemed to narrow them. ”然而，大學其實并沒有開闊人們的眼界。相反，是工作使人們的思維變得狹窄了。故選C。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“But those who had chosen the vocational route showed marked drops in interest in tasks that are investigative and enterprising in nature. ”可知，但是那些選擇職業(yè)培訓的人，他們對探究型和開創(chuàng)型任務的興趣明顯下降，從而可以推斷出由于職業(yè)培訓，人們對調查性工作的興趣降低。故選D。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“If Dr. Golle is correct, and changes in attitude brought about by the very training Germany prides itself on are narrowing people39。s choices, that is indeed a matter worthy of serious consideration. ”如果Golle 的結論正確，并且由于培訓（德國人以此為傲）而帶來態(tài)度上的變化縮小了人們的選擇，這確實是一個值得認真考慮的問題，可以推斷出，作者對這一發(fā)現(xiàn)持關注的態(tài)度。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇社會類閱讀，考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 Ray Tokuda, a 54yearold Japanese American, is proud of the title his school has given him. He is a Shifu, a Chinese word literally meaning a master, mentor or senior practioner of martial arts. Tokuda has reason to be proud. He has been involved with Chinese martial arts for almost four decades. After learning them at the martial arts school in New Mexico State, today he is among the most experienced kung fu teachers of the school. Practicing martial arts two to three hours and helping students improve their skills have bee Tokuda39。s daily routine. He expects to practice and teach martial arts for the rest of his life. I39。m still learning. It39。s worth more than a lifetime to learn Chinese martial arts, he said. Once I started, I just couldn39。t stop. I think it39。s also the magic of Chinese culture. Tokuda was sent to the martial arts school when he was 10. He still remembers how unwilling he was when starting out. My father had always wanted to learn Chinese martial arts but never got the chance, so he put his kid in, he said. I was so afraid at that time because I thought kung fu was all about fighting. But things changed after he learned that martial arts were more than punching and kicking. One of the things martial arts teach me is overing adversity, Tokuda said. As a little kid, my first lesson was like, oh, look, this is a thing that I can get through by diligence, perseverance（毅力）and dedication, and that was priceless for my life. Learning Chinese martial arts opened a gateway for him to better understand Chinese culture because he could hear a lot of ancient Chinese kung furelated stories. It is like in America, where we hear stories about knights in shining armor and King Arthur and noble deeds done, he said. I feel martial arts preserve something of ancient China that can39。t be found in books. They are sort of an oral history. Tokuda has also been invited to various events in his home state to showcase traditional Chinese culture, including the dragon dance and lion dance, which he also learnt at the martial arts school. Because of this, he is now considered a cultural envoy (使者) in the eyes of the public.（1）Tokuda didn39。t want to learn kung fu because he had thought it was __________.
