19、life. Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a schoolmasterly book on schooling.The author, WH.Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing.In his opinion,reading doesnt just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorp
20、orating it into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself.The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees.Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to e
21、xpress the information you have got from the text.Ive seen it again and again:someone who cant express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasnt read it at all. Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studyin

24、the arts can only be naturally acquired,actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics. My other comment is that the text aged.The first edition apparently dates to the 1960snone of the references(参考文献) seem newer than the late 1950s.As a result,the discussion mis

28、明文,介绍了一本图书的读者对象、写作风格,以及作者对该书某些内容的评价,最后作者将本书推荐给所有的老师和学生,包括自学的学生。1C推理判断题。关于阅读,本文推荐的这本书的作者Armstrong说,阅读不仅仅是要求认识每页的每个单词,而且要吸收阅读材料的信息并咀嚼消化,“阅读的目的就是将你所学到的信息表达出来”,这与C项陈述吻合:“根据所阅读的材料来表达自己的思想”。A项意为“获得知识,开阔视野”;B项意为“体会字里行间的含义”;D意为“获得信息并储存在记忆中”,这些都不是Armstrong认为的阅读的目的。2A事实细节题。由第三段可知:作者推荐的这本书忽视了艺术。尽管学习的方式各不相同,但艺术
29、的学习需要和学习数学及自然科学一样的专注和努力。由此判断A项正确。注意此段中的study在此表示“努力,用功”。作者介绍该书的时候说,书的作者对历史太富有激情(B项不正确),第三段说学习艺术与学习法语或数学一样需要后天的努力(C、D两项错)。3D事实细节题。本文提到该书的一些缺点,比如关于自然科学和数学部分的内容比较薄弱,第四段说,另外一个问题是书上援引的参考文献太陈旧,最新的也不超过20世纪50年代,因此本书的讨论部分完全没有涉及电脑时代。由此判断选D,作者觉得该书的一个缺点是没有新信息。A项意为“有些观点自相矛盾”;B项意为“关于研究自然科学方面的讨论太多”;C项意为“书的风格过于严肃”,
30、在本文都没有提到。4B推理判断题。从文章的叙述看,本文不是一篇广告、专访故事或新闻报道,而是一篇书评,从各方面比较中肯地评价一本书,指出其优点与不足,并向各位读者推荐该书。.完成句子1I would prefer to ride a bicycle rather than_.(take)我宁愿骑自行车也不愿乘坐拥挤的公共汽车。2Have you ever dreamed of_for further education abroad?(be)你曾经梦想过会有这样好的机会去国外深造吗?3_on his face showed that he had enough confidence in hi
