  • 第4题:

    “The Heart of the Matter,”the just-released report by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences(AAAS),deserves praise for affirming the importance of the humanities and social sciences to the prosperity and security of liberal democracy in America.Regrettably,however,the report’s failure to address the true nature of the crisis facing liberal education may cause more harm than good.
    In 2010,leading congressional Democrats and Republicans sent letters to the AAAS asking that it identify actions that could be taken by“federal,state and local governments,universities,foundations,educators,individual benefactors and others”to“maintain national excellence in humanities and social scientific scholarship and education.”In response,the American Academy formed the Commission on the Humanities and Social Sciences.Among the commission’s 51 members are top-tier-university presidents,scholars,lawyers,judges,and business executives,as well as prominent figures from diplomacy,filmmaking,music and journalism.
    The goals identified in the report are generally admirable.Because representative government presupposes an informed citizenry,the report supports full literacy;stresses the study of history and government,particularly American history and American government;and encourages the use of new digital technologies.To encourage innovation and competition,the report calls for increased investment in research,the crafting of coherent curricula that improve students’ability to solve problems and communicate effectively in the 21st century,increased funding for teachers and the encouragement of scholars to bring their learning to bear on the great challenges of the day.The report also advocates greater study of foreign languages,international affairs and the expansion of study abroad programs.
    Unfortunately,despite 2?years in the making,"The Heart of the Matter"never gets to the heart of the matter:the illiberal nature of liberal education at our leading colleges and universities.The commission ignores that for several decades America's colleges and universities have produced graduates who don’t know the content and character of liberal education and are thus deprived of its benefits.Sadly,the spirit of inquiry once at home on campus has been replaced by the use of the humanities and social sciences as vehicles for publicizing“progressive,”or left-liberal propaganda.
    Today,professors routinely treat the progressive interpretation of history and progressive public policy as the proper subject of study while portraying conservative or classical liberal ideas—such as free markets and self-reliance—as falling outside the boundaries of routine,and sometimes legitimate,intellectual investigation.
    The AAAS displays great enthusiasm for liberal education.Yet its report may well set back reform by obscuring the depth and breadth of the challenge that Congress asked it to illuminate.
    According to Paragraph 3,the report suggests

    A.an exclusive study of American history
    B.a greater emphasis on theoretical subjects
    C.the application of emerging technologies
    D.funding for the study of foreign languages

    答案:C
    解析:
    事实细节本题侧重考查对文中细节信息的准确理解。根据题干要求,解答本题需定位到第三段,解答本题的直接方法是将每个选项代入第三段与原文语句进行嵌套比对。选项A“专门研究美国历史”,对应原文“stresses the study of history and government,particularly American history and American government”也就是说,该报告强调政府应学习历史,尤其是美国历史和美国政府,而并不是只研究美国历史,选项中出现的“exclusive”致使A项表达过于绝对,故排除;选项B中的“theoretical subjects(理论学科)”是文中未提及的信息,属于无中生有,故排除;选项C“新兴技术的应用”,对应原文是“encourages the use of new digital technologies(鼓励使用新数字技术)”,选项C正是原文内容的同义替换,所以为正确答案;而选项D“为外语研究设立基金”,以“funding”和“foreign languages”为关键词定位原文是“increased funding for teachers and the encouragement of scholars to bring their learning to bear on the great challenges of the day.The report also advocates greater study of foreign languages”,原文是说该报告“要求加大教师科研基金的投入,以鼓励学者不断研发以面对当今时代的巨大挑战。该报告也大力倡导外语…”,选项D明显是对这两层意思的断章取义,这属于典型的移花接木,故排除。

    Influential figures in the Congress required that the AAAS report on how to

    A.retain people’s interest in liberal education
    B.define the government’s role in education
    C.keep a leading position in liberal education
    D.safeguard individuals’rights to education

    答案:D
    解析:
    事实细节根据题干关键词,可定位到第二段第一句。题干中的“Influential figures in the Congress”对应原文的“leading congressional Democrats and Republicans”,题干中的“required”对应原文的“asking”,依据题干问题答案出自于“…maintain national excellence in humanities and social scientific scholarship and education.”比对四个选项,D项中的“leading”对应原文的“excellence”,“liberal”对应原文的“humanities”,由此可见D项是对原文意思的同义置换为正确答案。选项A“保护个人的教育权利”,文中并未提及有关教育权利的信息,故排除;选项B“定义政府在教育中的角色”,很明显原文中是“联邦政府、州政府、地方政府、大学、基金会、教育工作者、个人资助者以及其他人”,所以政府只是其中一类人,这属于典型的缩小范围;选项C“保持人们对自由教育的兴趣”,而原文对应提到的是“维护国家教育优势”,这里属于偷换概念,故排除。

    locals’ turnout for the voting

    C

    powers of the legislative body

    D

    status of the national language


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    细节题。文章第三段对Wales与Scotland进行了比较,第一、二句“The Welsh showed little enthusiasm for devolution. Whereas the Scots voted overwhelmingly for a parliament, the vote for a Welsh assembly scraped through by less than one percent on a turnout of less than 25 percent….”分别与A、B项相对应。第三、四句“Its powers were proportionately limited...unlike its counterpart in Edinburgh, enact laws.”其中的its指代的是Welsh, its counterpart in Edinburgh指代的是苏格兰,对应C项。文章并未对威尔士和苏格兰语进行比较,故选D。

    D

    The Liberal Democrats believe that people earning more than $100,000 a year should donate extra money.
    A

    B


    正确答案:

    录音中指出托里党人和自由民主党人都坚持各自关于以税收资助的高等教育的观点,并提到后者(即自由民主党人)认为多余的钱可以毫不费力地从年收入超过10万英镑的人那里获得。因此题干表述正确。
    【录音原文】
    Both the Tories and the Liberal Democrats cling to the idea of purely tax-funded higher education: the former intends to save money by cutting student numbers; the latter claims that extra money can be painlessly extracted from people earning more than €100,000 a year.

    Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

    A.Ways to Grasp“The Heart of the Matter”
    B.Illiberal Education and“The Heart of the Matter”
    C.The AAAS’s Contribution to Liberal Education
    D.Progressive Policy vs.Liberal Education

    答案:A
    解析:
    主旨大意本题考查对文章主旨的概括能力。首先,通过浏览每个段的段首句,可以总结出该文章探讨的主要对象是由AAAS发布的报告,同时每个段落的进一步探讨主要集中于该报告展现出来教育的非自由性主题,其中该报告的代称为问题的核心。A项非自由性教育与问题核心正好和文章主旨相匹配。B项意思是“AAAS报告对自由性教育的贡献”;C项意思是“抓住问题核心的方法”,其中方法文中并未提及。与文章主旨相违背。D项意思是“进步性政策对自由性教育”,其中的“政策”并非文章的重点,故排除。

    The author implies in Paragraph 5 that professors are

    A.supportive of free markets
    B.cautious about intellectual investigation
    C.conservative about public policy
    D.biased against classical liberal ideas

    答案:B
    解析:
    推理判断本题考查对作者情感态度的推理判断能力。根据题干可定位到文中第五段。教授们的态度主要通过两个层面体现出来的。这两个层面体现在第五段一个由while引导的长句中,理解好这个长句是解题的关键点。while之前是一个层面,while之后是一个层面。该题主要考察while之后第二个层面的理解。在while之后讲到讲授们将保守或经典的自由理念(比如自由市场和自力更生)排除在常规之外,甚至排除在合理的学术研究之外。由作者的语气可判断出作者对教授们对待classical liberal ideas的这种做法持负向态度,比对四个选项,只有B项中的“bias”体现出了作者对教授们做法的负向态度,故为正确答案。选项A与原文态度相反,故排除;而选项C中的“cautious about”是对原文“conservative”一词理解不到位设置的干扰选项。选项D是将while前后出现的两个信息嫁接到一起,设置的不符合文意的干扰项。
