en舉行的活動的成功導(dǎo)致了the Human Library Organization的成立,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可推知,該活動奠定了該組織的基礎(chǔ),故答案選C。由第四段中的“It provides the opportunity for the munity to share and understand the experiences of others in their munity”可知,the Human Library給社會給提供了分享和了解別人經(jīng)歷的機(jī)會。故答案選A。文章介紹了the Human Library(真人圖書館)的情況。文章還介紹了the Human Library的成立的情況。故答案選B。要善于抓住某一段話中的關(guān)鍵信息,即某些關(guān)鍵詞或短語去分析、推理、判斷,利用逆向思維或正面推理,從而推斷出這句話所隱含的深層含義。有時(shí)需要在弄懂全文意思的基礎(chǔ)上,整合與題目相關(guān)的有用信息,綜合起來去推理判斷,確定最佳結(jié)論。每篇文章的語境都有一定褒貶性,這種褒貶性反映了主人公的特定心理和情緒狀態(tài)及作者的寫作意圖,因此利用好文章的語境褒貶性就能在把握主旨文意的基礎(chǔ)上對文章進(jìn)行準(zhǔn)確的邏輯判斷。 作者態(tài)度、傾向是指作者對陳述的觀點(diǎn)是贊同、反對還是猶豫不定,對記敘或描寫的人、物或事件等是贊頌、同情、冷漠還是厭惡、憎恨。 (5)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯得出結(jié)論。 (6)結(jié)合已有的知識進(jìn)行推斷。5.閱讀理解 As Annie Potts of Canterbury University has noted, chickens distinguish among one hundred chicken faces and recognize familiar individuals even after months of separation. When given problems to solve, they reason: hens trained to pick colored buttons sometimes choose to give up an immediate food reward for a slightly later (and better) one. Healthy hens may aid friends, and mourn when those friend die.s. Then the team switched from reallife objects to Tshirts printed with X or O symbols. Still, the pigs walked only toward the Oshirted people: they had transferred their knowledge to a twodimensional format, a not inconsiderable feat of reasoning.ve been guilty of prejudiced expectations, myself. At the start of my career almost four decades ago, I was firmly convinced that monkeys and apes outthink and outfeel other animals. They39。 Over time, though, as I began to broaden out even further and explore the inner lives of fish, chickens, pigs, goats, and cows, I started to wonder: Will the new science of food animals bring an ethical (倫理的) revolution in terms of who we eat?

When a research team led by Candace Croney at Penn State University carried wooden blocks marked with X and O symbols around pigs, only the O carriers offered food to the animals. The pigs soon ignored the X carriers in favor of the O39。當(dāng)木板換成帶X和O標(biāo)記的襯衫時(shí),豬仍然只走向那些穿帶O標(biāo)記襯衫的研究者。結(jié)合選項(xiàng),D選項(xiàng)正確。由第四段中的“At the start of my career almost four decades ago, I was firmly convinced that monkeys and apes outthink and outfeel other animals...Fairly soon, I came to see that along with our closest living relatives, whales too are masters of cultural learning, and elephants express profound joy and mourning with their social panions. Longterm studies…h(huán)elped to fuel a viewpoint shift in our society: the public no longer so easily accepts monkeys made to undergo painful procedure kin laboratories, elephants forced to perform in circuses, and dolphins kept in small tanks at theme parks.”可知,數(shù)十年前,作者堅(jiān)信猴子和猩猩在思考能力和情感上都勝過其他的動物。長期的研究也促進(jìn)著我們社會觀點(diǎn)的轉(zhuǎn)變:我們不再認(rèn)為猴子只能是實(shí)驗(yàn)室里的實(shí)驗(yàn)對象,大象只能在馬戲團(tuán)里進(jìn)行表演,海豚只能被養(yǎng)在主題公園狹小的池子里。故C選項(xiàng)正確。第一段提出:科學(xué)開始擁抱原來被我們認(rèn)為是二等公民的動物們(即:我們對某些動物的看法正在發(fā)生變化)。第四段介紹了人們對動物看法的轉(zhuǎn)變。結(jié)合每段大意可知,該文主要是圍繞動物也有情感有思想來展開的?!军c(diǎn)評】文章標(biāo)題解題技巧:(1)要在閱讀原文的基礎(chǔ)上,仔細(xì)考慮這句話或短語與文章主題是否有密切的聯(lián)系;(2)再看它對文章的概括性或覆蓋面如何;(3)要注意題目是過大還是過?。唬?)要避免下列三種錯(cuò)誤:①概括不夠(多表現(xiàn)為部分代整體,從而導(dǎo)致范圍太小);②過度概括(多表現(xiàn)為人為擴(kuò)大范圍);③以事實(shí)、細(xì)節(jié)替代抽象具體的大意。 Watching wooden dolls e to life may not be one of the most popular forms of entertainment today, but with over twenty years39。 Roberts39。 Roberts39。 The puppets are designed specifically for each show, which is extremely time consuming.
