How many words were defined by the lexicographer? Over 40,000 words appeared in two large books in April of 1755. Did Johnson fully understand the huge task he was undertaking when he began? As he told his contemporary biographer James Boswell, I knew very well what I was undertaking and very well how to do it — and have done it very well.(1)What is the problem of early English dictionaries? A.s dictionary was pleted by very few people very quickly.Balanced on a chair with only three legs, Johnson sat against a wall in a room filled with books. Johnson would read widely from these books, mark passages illustrating the use of a particular word, and give the books to his assistants so that they could copy the passages on slips of paper. These slips were then stuck to eighty large notebooks under the key words that Johnson had selected. Fixing the word by this method, Johnson could record a word,s usage and its definition. Johnson changed all that, but the task was not an easy one. Renting a house at 17 Gough Square, Johnson began working in the worst of conditions. Supported only by his publisher, Johnson worked on the Dictionary with five assistants. Compared to the French Academy39。 During the period from 1660 through 1800, Great Britain became the world39。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇故事類閱讀,要求考生準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。 (4)考查推理判斷。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。D.Network WorldB.Modern CountriesD.weaving machines and toothbrushesC.have paintings on their ceilings in every cave(3)Experts had discovered cave paintings showing the ancient techniques of ______.

A. Among the discoveries experts have made are cave paintings showing ancient techniques of pottery making and wine production and paintings showing ancient weaving machines and then toothbrushes! The paintings also give some evidence of the lifestyle at the time with, for example, pictures of people boiling milk over 1,000 years ago. Experts believe that there is more evidence to be found, but even now the caves are a wonderful natural museum. If the walls and ceilings of the caves were all put together they would form a tapestry 20 kilometers long and 2 meters high! We can understand, then, why Chinese historians were so excited when they found cave paintings which show ancient science. They found these paintings in the worldrenowned Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang City, in Northwest China39。4.閱讀理解 縱觀全文可知,本文主要講述了72歲的爺爺Dubois自學(xué)嘻哈音樂,并在網(wǎng)上擁有大量的粉絲,他的故事告訴我們什么時候?qū)W習(xí)都不晚,故選B。t know that many people liked me.可知,Dubois說他哭了,因?yàn)樗恢罆心敲炊嗳讼矚g他,由此可知,Dubois 沒想到自己在網(wǎng)上如此受歡迎,故選D。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的Dubois said his style was entirely selftaught.可知,Dubois說他的風(fēng)格完全是自學(xué)的。 talents and posted them to Twitter.可知,聽完Dubois的演唱后,Daniels很快拍下了展示Dubois才能的視頻,并將其發(fā)布到推特上,由此可見他被Dubois的演唱驚到了,由此可知畫線詞詞義為吃驚的、驚愕的,故選A。 (1)考查詞義猜測。D.Lost time in never found again.It39。Well begun in half done.Dubois didn39。 music at first.C.Daniels didn39。Hiphop producers.(3)What can we infer from the text?
