    D

    Casual use of the word “opinion” often brings about quarrels.


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    细节归纳题。文章第一段第三句提到,就像你有权发表你的意见一样,我也有权发表我的意见。末段指出,是不是每个人都被赋予发表意见的权利?那当然。每个人都有发表个人意见的权利,这是中心内容。故A项“人人都有权拥有自己的意见”符合文章内容。文章首段第三句提到,若不太重视意见时,随意使用他不会引起乱子。可见,B项“自由发表意见常引起混乱”与原文不符。文章开头提到,对“意见”一词的使用分成三类:品位,信念和判断。对第一种的使用有些粗心,后两种不是,所以,C项“在构成意见上,大多数人往往是粗心的”与原文不符。文中仅在讲到品位时说明滥用意见一词会引起无聊的争吵,其他使用意见时没有D项“随便使用‘意见’一词,常引起吵架”意思。综上所述,A项正确。

    A

    The host talks little with the visitor

    B

    The child accompanies the visitor to the gate of the house

    C

    The host offers the visitor a seat only

    D

    The visitor takes some food with him when he leaves.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    原文第四段指出“When the visitor is leaving,he is often given some food”,故D项表述正确。原文中说来访者会被问道他们的旅途如何,为什么来到此地等,他们的谈话在饭后仍会继续,故A项“talks little”错误。原文中说的是孩子把来访者送到“to the nearest station”,故B项“to the gate of the house”错误。C项“offers the visitor a seat only”也错误,文中提到主人们会给来访者提供座位、茶水和食物,并且会打包点食物让他们带走,而不仅仅是提供一个座位。故正确选项为D。

    C

    It is a new untested way of working.

    D

    It is a traditional work arrangement.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    推理判断题。文章第二段第一句“In reality, researchers continue to find strong growth and acceptance of telecommuting.”可知,远程办公越来越受到人们的欢迎,这种趋势也在不断地增长。B项是对这句话的同义转述,是正确答案。A项与文中意思不符,根据文中第四段第三句,无论是经理还是人力资源的专家,在你开始远程办公之前还有一系列的决策和行动。由此可知,是否实行远程办公是由经理或人力资源部等领导做出决定的。C项与原文意思完全相反,根据第三段最后一句,远程办公并不是一种新奇的、未经试验的工作方式。D项与原文意思矛盾,根据第三段首句,远程办公对工作的安排不同于传统的做法。

    C

    The Tuskegee Airmen

    D

    Racial Discrimination in the U. S.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    主旨大意题。第一段介绍了塔斯基吉空军在第二次世界大战中为美国作战,但是却因肤色受到歧视。第二段到第四段记叙了塔斯基吉空军的成立,他们的英勇战绩以及被歧视的情况。第五段叙述了在1948年杜鲁门总统签署的一份命令使得状况有所改变。所以全篇文章讲述的都是塔斯基吉空军这支部队的情况,而只有C选项讲的是塔斯基吉空军部队,故答案选C。
