    strong and healthy.

    C

    [A] record player

    [B] radio

    [C] musical technique

    [D] music culture


    正确答案:A

    本题考查词意理解。“phonograph”一词出现在第一段第五句,该句指出,“‘phonograph’被发明以前,我们听不到任何音乐表演的声音,只能通过乐器研究过去的音乐文化”。由此可知,该词指的是一种能够记录声音并被用于音乐文化研究的物质。[A]为正确答案。[B]虽然也有声音,但无法用于音乐研究。此外,也可以通过词根词缀法猜测词意。phono-相当于sound,表示“声音”;-graph表示“书写、描绘或记录的器具,机械”。“记录声音的机器”就是“录音机”。

    根据文章第五段uneven和后面“it puts a disadvantage on students who can’t afford to pay to store their phones”可以得知,该项禁令的实施会给那些支付不起手机保存费用的学生造成损害。由此可以推断discriminatory意思是“不公平的”,与unfair同义,因此选D。

    a firm decision

    B

    C

    an act of resolving

    D

    the power of a scientific instrument to give a clear picture of things


    正确答案: D
    解析:

    B

    unusual.

    C

    lofty.

    D

    interesting.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    语义理解题。文章首段提到,在Virginius看来,妻子除了缺少一点令人心动的脆弱之外可以说是堪称完美。之后又表示这样的完美减少了很多乐趣,尤其是爱情的乐趣。文章尾段与首段相互呼应,提到即便是最不挑剔的丈夫也希望妻子具有一些piquant的品质,而不仅仅是善良。由此可以推断,piquant应该是一种让人觉得有趣的品质,而Victoria所缺少的正式这种品质,故答案为D项。

    正确答案: A
    解析:
    词汇题。解答词汇题最常用的方法之一就是利用对比关系,“What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein,and another person a fool?”genius的含义和fool相反,自然可以推测出brilliant的含义;“Are people born intelligent or stupid?” intelligent的意思和stupid含义相反。dull出现在“... on the other hand ... dull and unintelligent”中,dull表示不聪明。答案为A项。
