分析 本文是一篇人物介紹.介紹居里夫人大女兒 Irene Curie 的一生和她的成就.
解答 21-24 DCBD
21.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第三段可知,第一次世界大戰(zhàn)開始后,Irene 幫助母親救助傷員,法國政府以軍功章的形式表示對她的貢獻(xiàn)的認(rèn)可(Her services were recognised in the form of a Military's Medal by the French government).所以選擇D
22.C 推理判斷題.文章第四段說:在 1918 年,Irene 在居里夫人研究院成為母親的助手,1924 年 12 月 Frederi c Joliot 加入了該研究院,Irene 教給他該項工作要求的技術(shù),不久他們相愛了并于 1926年結(jié)婚,由此可推斷出選C.
23.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.第四段最后一句表明:他們第一個孩子于 1927 年出生,5 年后(1932 年)第二 個孩子出生,所以B項正確.
24.D 推理判斷題.縱觀全文可知,Irene在"與放射性物質(zhì)打交道/把家庭與事業(yè)相結(jié)合/死于leukemia"這三方面與母親相同,不同的是Irene獲得一次諾貝爾獎,而母親兩次獲得諾貝爾獎.所以本題選D.
點評 做閱讀時經(jīng)常犯錯的主要原因是,僅憑讀過文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來勾選答案,這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設(shè)布下的題目陷阱.所謂閱讀理解,對于題目的理解一定要忠實于原文,因此,每一道題都應(yīng)該與原文作全面的對比與核查,再得出答案.也就是說,閱讀理解的每一道題目,在原文都應(yīng)該有明確的出處,我們把這一出處叫做原文相關(guān)句,(1)排除與原文相關(guān)句主題不一致的選項(2)排除與原文相關(guān)句態(tài)度相反的選項 (3)排除用于過于極端或負(fù)面的選項(4)注意結(jié)合文章主旨和主題去排除.
