2009年6月英語(yǔ)四級(jí)閱讀沖刺倒計(jì)時(shí)(倒數(shù)21天)

　　4. The passage tell us ____.

　　A) foreign students keep good terms with their hostesses

　　B) foreign students come to stay with their host families to learn English

　　C) a hostess does not make much profit because she has to buy new furniture

　　D) the local TV programs are very popular among foreign students

　　5. The main purpose of the author in writing this passage is ____.

　　A) to criticize foreign students for not sharing housework with their hostesses

　　B) to suggest that a new accommodation standard be laid down

　　C) to complain about the irresponsibility of foreign students

　　D) to give an account of his personal experiences with foreign students

　　答案及解析

　　1.A) critical, 批判的、批評(píng)的. D不能搭配題干中的attitude towards foreign students, 又因本文立場(chǎng)明確, 故B也不對(duì). A是完全不對(duì).

　　2.D) prejudiced, 有成見的. 出現(xiàn)地點(diǎn)：There has been a lot of unfair and biased criticism of families who welcome foreign students into their homes. 通過unfair and可推斷出biased也為反面意思, 只有D是反面意思. 這幾個(gè)詞可以記一記.

　　3.B) A host family usually has no alternative but to accept the student assigned對(duì)應(yīng)原文第三段第一句The problem is that the host family cannot inspect students or refuse to accept the ones who look dirty, unreliable or noisy. 第二段和第三段亦剛好可以用來(lái)解釋ACD為什么是錯(cuò)的。。。

　　4.標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案為B) foreign students come to stay with their host families to learn English, 怕是又錯(cuò)了。。。偶覺得該選C)a hostess does not make much profit because she has to buy new furniture. 首先A和D都是明顯錯(cuò)的, B中的learn English只是最后一句有所提及, It's time foreign students were taught to be polite and to behave properly, as well as how to speak English, 但這個(gè)learn English和stay with their host families的關(guān)系并非B所講的那樣. C對(duì)應(yīng)原文第四段, 最多是because后面的內(nèi)容不全面, 但比ABD看起來(lái)要好。。。個(gè)人意見, 歡迎討論。。。

　　5.C)to complain about the irresponsibility of foreign students, 本文的主旨.
