    Sympathy.

    B

    Appreciation.

    C

    Scorn.

    D

    Irony.


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    观点态度的判断。在谈到20世纪早期英国的建筑师时,说话者提到“there were slightly batty architect-craftsmen…still trying to turn the clock back to before the Industrial Revolution by making chairs and spurning new technology”,可知在其他国家的建筑师尝试新材料时,英国一些有点古板的建筑师们却仍在制作椅子,并且对新科技表示唾弃,从而试图将时钟拨回到工业革命之前。由此可推测,说话者实际上在讽刺英国建筑师们没有创新精神,还停留在工业革命前的状态。故选D。

    C

    D

    In the mid-20th century.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    事实细节的找寻和判断。说话者在谈到自己并不支持电子乐器的使用会毁掉古典音乐的观点时,指出“This…is not the first such revolution in musical history…”,由此可推测其后便是对另一次乐器变革的描述,其中提到“Remember we’ve already studied the similar case in the early l9th century when the piano replaced…”,其中the similar case对应题干中的关键词another significant change(另一次重要变革)。可见,在历史,乐器发生的另一次重大变革应该是在19世纪早期。故选项A为正确答案。

  • 第13题:

    A.Skyscrapers provide more usable space than other buildings
    B.The skyscrapers first appeared in the late 1960s
    C.Where there are skyscrapers, television reception is poor
    D.The two World Trade Center towers are skyscrapers

    答案:B
    解析:
    是非判断题。B项的内容与文章不符,本文虽未直接提到摩天大楼是什么时候出现的,但间接否认摩天大楼是在20世纪90年代末期首先出现的:“…and new steel-and—glass skyscrapers were widelycriticized.”这一个“新”字是说这种钢材玻璃型摩天大楼是在20世纪60年代末期出现了,而不是说摩天大楼是在这一时期出现的。

  • 第14题:

    B.The Religious History of Europe in 16th Century
    C.The Causes of European Separation in 16th Century
    D.The History of Europe after Separation

    答案:C
    解析:
    主旨题。在文章中,作者从三方面论及欧洲的分裂。从第三段第一句“这些情感,本身就危险,再加上地理和金钱两个问题,情况就更加不妙了”可知,A项“欧洲史”和B项“欧洲宗教史”这两项涉及范围更广。本文主要是从分裂原因来进行论述的,并不是完全关于分裂后的历史,因此D项“欧洲分裂后的历史”不符合。
