專(zhuān)題限時(shí)訓(xùn)練(三十三)(一)【要點(diǎn)綜述】英國(guó)法律規(guī)定，所有從人類(lèi)古代居地出土的遺骸，必須被重新掩埋。這一決定意味著科學(xué)家們將沒(méi)有足夠的時(shí)間研究具有民族文化的遺骨及其他遺物。1．B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文章可以看出，科學(xué)家對(duì)這項(xiàng)法律不滿主要是因?yàn)檫@項(xiàng)法律對(duì)科學(xué)研究的影響是毀滅性的。2．C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段可知，盡管延長(zhǎng)了時(shí)間，但是出土的人類(lèi)遺骸終究還是要被埋回去的。3．D推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段最后一句話“TheMinistryofJusticeassuredarchaeologiststwoyearsagothatthelawwastemporary，buthassofarfailedtoreviseit.”可知，盡管TheMinistryofJustice兩年前向考古學(xué)家保證這項(xiàng)法律是暫時(shí)的，但是他們到現(xiàn)在還是沒(méi)能修改這項(xiàng)法律，所以他們的工作做得不到位。4．D主旨大意題。這項(xiàng)法律的危害在第四段有詳細(xì)陳述，對(duì)于這項(xiàng)法律，反對(duì)的是考古學(xué)家們，所以他們才是呼吁修改法律的主要對(duì)象，這樣可以排除其他三項(xiàng)。(二)【要點(diǎn)綜述】本文通過(guò)一篇短文教我們?nèi)绾螌?xiě)和冬天有關(guān)的文章。1．B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。短文的第五段“Unseenbythosewhoremainedlockedinsidetheirhomes，warmintheirbeds，Ienjoyedbeingalonewiththebeautyofthewintertime.”說(shuō)明這里的adventure就
