　　Dbeingpunctualisanundesirablehabitwhichshouldnotbeformed

　　四级考试阅读理解练习题答案

　　1.Cdeprivesusofleisuretime对应原文第一句butthatitisathiefoftimewhenitleavesusnoleisuretoenjoyourselves.选项A是与作者想法完全相反的;选项B虽有章可循,但要注意原文是itstrainsournerveswhenwetrytoget

thingsdoneperfectly,而非it直接urgesustogetthingsdonepunctually;选项D要看清,原文是adifferentconceptionoftime而非aperfectconceptoftime.

　　2.Cmoreemphasisonefficiency对应原文第二段第一句Thepaceofmodernindustriallifeforbidsthiskindofgloriousandmagnificentidling.通过第一段可以看出,与efficiency对立的是thiskindofgloriousand

magnificentidling,而industriallife又forbids,自然说明industriallifegivesrisetomoreemphasisonefficiency.

　　3.DAmericansoughtnottoworksohardforefficiency.排除法:

AChineseworkerscometoworkwhenitisconvenient不符合原文中的内容;BallAmericansareforcedtobeefficientagainsttheir

will语气太重,不是被强迫讲求效率,也不是违背自己意愿,只是为了适应工业社会;CChineseengineersareonbettertermswiththemanagement不属于本文讨论范畴。

。

　　4.Agreatconfusion对应原文ThissortofthingisboundtocometoChina,asisevident,forinstance,inthecaseofafactoryoftwentythousandworker.Theluxuriousprospectoftwenty

thousandworkerscominginattheirownsweetpleasureatallhoursis,ofcourse,somewhatterrifying.

　　5.Ceveryonshouldhavesometimetospendashepleases,这是4个选项中唯一一个符合isimpliedbutNOTstated两个条件的.A选项有被直接提及,B选项reluctant是不愿的意思,而本文并非讨论愿不愿的问题,D选项beingpunctualisanundesirablehabit

whichshouldnotbeformed,黑体部分分别为守时和不良习惯的意思,显然不是作者本意.

　　四级考试阅读理解练习题答案

　　1C。

事实细节题。

第一段提到了影响视幅的因素：

不同的人，不同的阅读目的，对材料的熟悉程度，光线，疲劳。

C“一组词的长度”不是能影响视幅的因素，是本题的答案。

　　2C。

观点态度题。

作者在第二段第二句提到，眼睛训练课程只注重了阅读的视觉因素。

倒数第二句书哦，阅读要求具备理解单词间关系的能力。

因此选项C“阅读需要大脑的深度参与”正确。

作者没有否定阅读的视觉因素的必要性，但是也没有说读者应该练习拓宽视幅，加快阅读速度。

所以AB两项都不正确。

作者没有对大脑和眼睛在阅读过程中的重要性进行对比，所以不选D

　　3C。

作者在这句话中先是肯定了那些阅读练习提高看单词的能力，然后提出了有效阅读概念。

后面句中还指出，有效阅读需要的是理解单词间的联系的能力。

所以作者的意思应该是那些训练眼睛的阅读练习对与有效的阅读无益。

B与文章相反。

D句是蕴涵其中一个意思，却不是作者想表达的方向。

　　4D。

第二段最后一句说，眼睛训练对于帮助读者阅读连贯文章无益，所以D是错的，是本题答案。

　　5A。

参考前面的结构剖析，作者写本文的主要目的是对那些只关注阅读的视觉因素的阅读能力课程进行批判，所以答案应该是A。
