閱讀理解訓(xùn)練題(一)解答提示

56.A詞義猜測題。根據(jù)TheyareclassifiedascarcinogensbytheInternationalAgencyfor

ResearchonCancer.可知這個詞與癌癥有關(guān)，故可?推出carcinogenic意為"致癌的”。

57.C細節(jié)題。根據(jù)Peoplefoundthedyein1883andgaveitthename.Nobodyknowsthereason,

andwecannotgiveanyexplanationbeforewefindout.可知還沒有人知道“蘇丹紅”名稱的由來。

58.B推斷題。根據(jù)EUofficialshavebeenstrivingtoremovesomefoodproductsfromthe

shelves.Sofar580productshavebeenrecalled.可知某些食品因含有“蘇丹紅”而被召回。故可

推斷“蘇丹紅”經(jīng)常用作食品添加劑。

59.B主旨大意題。根據(jù)therehasbeenconfusionoverpossiblelinkstothecountryofthesame

name,butSudanofficialssaythereisnoconnectionwhatever.可知本文主要講“蘇丹紅"與蘇丹

這個國家是否有聯(lián)系的問題，故B最佳。

60.C文章的第一段中，作者敘述了乘客在坐長途車中所見的是廣告牌。

61.A全文都是作者表述對乘車長途旅行中的廣告的意見和看法。

62.D從第三段作者對"長途乘車中廣告太多”所表達的情況看，作者不太喜歡沿途的廣告牌。

63.B由文章第一段第一句和第二句可知答案為Bo

64.A由第三段第一句和第二句可知。

65.B第一段第二句可知。

66.A從前面所列舉的樹木的名字可猜出是一種樹。

67.C由文中第三段中的敘述，1924-1906=18o

68.C由第四段第一、二句可知。

69.A推斷題。根據(jù)makinghimtheworld'sthirdrichestman可知LaksmiMittal是世界上排

名第三的富人，其他三人在他之后，故這四人中他最富。

70.C推斷題。根據(jù)有兩個，一是：Therearearecord691dollarbillionairesaccordingtoForbes

magazine.根據(jù)本句可知,財產(chǎn)超過億萬的富豪有691人。二是:JKRowling,authorofthe

HarryPotternovelsranked620thwithafortuneof519milliondollars.根據(jù)本旬可知羅琳財產(chǎn)為

5億1千9百萬美元，排在富豪榜第620位，故財產(chǎn)在她之下的億萬富豪為70人左右。

71.A細節(jié)題。根據(jù)thoughsurprisinglyperhapsnonefromChinaexcludingHongKong可知中國

大陸無人進入富豪榜前60名，但香港有人進入，故A項陳述是錯誤的。

72.C推斷題。根據(jù)amongthemisJKRowling,authoroftheHarryPotternovelsranked620th

withafortuneof519milliondollars.可知JK羅琳主要是因為她寫的小說《哈利波特》而位

居排行榜第620位，故可斷定她寫的書一定很暢銷。

73.C細節(jié)題。根據(jù)Freeentranceforthoseincostume,otherwise50yuan(US$6)可.知，April

foofsparty晚會化了妝的人可以免費，未化妝的人是要收費的。故C項是不正確的。

74.C細節(jié)題。根據(jù)PracticeyourChinese可知Languageinuse的對象是漢語學(xué)習(xí)者。

75.B推斷題。這個廣告標題LaNuitFrancaise不像英文，同時根據(jù)anopportunityforallFrench

peopleandeveryoneinterestedinFranceorspeakingFrenchtogathertogether.可知它的對象是

法國人及對法國感興趣的人，可以斷定這個標題是用法語寫的。
