beturnedintoaroughsortofwheelbyattachingwoodenpolestoitssdes,herealized.That,

henotes,shouldmakeablockofstonezaloteasiertorollthanasquare'.”可知，West意識(shí)至U-

個(gè)方塊可以通過(guò)將木桿固定在其兩側(cè)而變成一種粗糙的輪子，那樣做，石頭應(yīng)該比方塊更容

易滾動(dòng)，于是他就嘗試了這種方法，所以it指的就是滾動(dòng)木桿固定在其兩側(cè)的石頭。故選A。

cattlefatorwatertosmooththepaths."可知，West認(rèn)為滾動(dòng)比滑動(dòng)的方法好是因?yàn)楣と藗儾槐?/p>

提前用牛脂肪或水來(lái)使路面變光滑，也就是準(zhǔn)備工作更少。故選D。

【解析】選D。主旨大意題。通讀全文，特別是根據(jù)第一段中的"Long-agobuilderscouldhave

attachedwoodenpolestothestonesandrolledthemacrossthesand,”可知，本文介紹T科學(xué)家

發(fā)現(xiàn)的一種把巨石運(yùn)到金字塔位置的新方法一一把木桿綁在巨石下面，然后滾動(dòng)。故選D。

第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多
