第1题:

Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?

[A] Democratic ideas started with education.

[B] Federalists were opposed to education.

[C] New education helped confirm people’s social status.

[D] Old education had been in tune with hierarchical society.


正确答案:D

本题是推理引申题。文章第一段第一句指出,随着19世纪上半叶民主权利的扩展以及随之而来的联邦主义机构的削弱,一种新的教育观念出现了。接下来的内容主要是围绕这种新的教育观念展开论述。从第一句话中可以得知,是民主权利的扩展带来了新的教育观念的产生,[A]项颠倒了二者的先后顺序,应排除。文中提到“新”的教育观念是在联邦主义机构削弱的情况下产生的。由此只能得出,新的教育观念与联邦主义有些冲突,并不能得出联邦主义者反对整个教育即[B]项的结论。第二句作者指出,教育不再是对人们先前存在的地位的确定,而成了获得更高地位的手段。[C]项与文意相悖,因此不正确。通过该句“不再”(no longer)可以推断出,从前的教育可以确定人们的社会地位,因此[D]项为正确答案。

第2题:

Two years ago,Rupert Murdoch’s daughter,Elisabeth,spoke of the“unsettling dearth of integrity across so many of our institutions”Integrity had collapsed,she argued,because of a collective acceptance that the only“sorting mechanism”in society should be profit and the market.But“it’s us,human beings,we the people who create the society we want,not profit”.Driving her point home,she continued:“It’s increasingly apparent that the absence of purpose,of a moral language within government,media or business could become one of the most dangerous foals for capitalism and freedom.”This same absence of moral purpose was wounding companies such as News International,shield thought,making it more likely that it would lose its way as it had with widespread illegal telephone hacking.As the hacking trial concludes–finding guilty ones-editor of the News of the World,Andy Coulson,for conspiring to hack phones,and finding his predecessor,Rebekah Brooks,innocent of the same charge–the winder issue of dearth of integrity still standstill,Journalists are known to have hacked the phones of up to 5,500 people.This is hacking on an industrial scale,as was acknowledged by Glenn Mulcaire,the man hired by the News of the World in 2001 to be the point person for phone hacking.Others await trial.This long story still unfolds.In many respects,the dearth of moral purpose frames not only the fact of such widespread phone hacking but the terms on which the trial took place.One of the astonishing revelations was how little Rebekah Brooks knew of what went on in her newsroom,wow little she thought to ask and the fact that she never inquired wow the stories arrived.The core of her successful defence was that she knew nothing.In today’s world,title has become normal that well—paid executives should not be accountable for what happens in the organizations that they run perhaps we should not be so surprised.For a generation,the collective doctrine has been that the sorting mechanism of society should be profit.The words that have mattered are efficiency,flexibility,shareholder value,business–friendly,wealth generation,sales,impact and,in newspapers,circulation.Words degraded to the margin have been justice fairness,tolerance,proportionality and accountability.The purpose of editing the News of the World was not to promote reader understanding to be fair in what was written or to betray any common humanity.It was to ruin lives in the quest for circulation and impact.Ms Brooks may or may not have had suspicions about how her journalists got their stories,but she asked no questions,gave no instructions—nor received traceable,recorded answers.
The author believes the Rebekah Books’s deference

A.revealed a cunning personality
B.centered on trivial issues
C.was hardly convincing
D.was part of a conspiracy

答案:C
解析:
观点例证根据题干中的“defence”可以回文定位到文章第四段最后一句话。该句指出Ms.Brooks辩护成功的关键在于她对这个事件一无所知(she knew nothing)。而作者在该段第一句话中指出,诚信缺失不仅体现在普遍存在的手机黑客这一事实上,更体现在一些审判案件所使用的条款上,其中最震惊的就是对Ms.Brooks的审判。可见,作者对该案的审判持否定态度,认为该审判是诚信缺失的一个体现。因此,认为她的辩护是不可信的。故正确答案为C。选项A是对Ms.Brooks的个人评价,而作

第3题:

By “chose to become entangled” (Line 4,Paragraph 3), the author implies that _____.

[A] the dispute between the Government and the BBC was unnecessary

[B] the Foreign Affairs Committee had mixed up the argument

[C] it was entirely wrong to carry out such investigations

[D] the Intelligence Committee shouldn’t mix up with the affair


正确答案:A

本题考查推理引申。题干这句话出现在第三段第三句。整个第三段主要围绕“对伊战争的调查”展开论述。该段第二句对两项调查作出评价,指出它们都没有涉及到关系这场战争的症结所在。第三句指出,外事委员会要调查的范围很广,却让自己纠缠于政府和英国广播公司的纠纷之中。由此可见,作者认为“政府与英国广播公司的纠纷”不是关系这场战争的关键性问题,[A]正确。该段中作者没有完全否认“调查”的必要性,排除[C];也没有对调查方(外事委员会或情报委员会)进行批评,排除[B]和[D]。

It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that

A.Glem Mulcaire may deny phone hacking as a crime
B.more journalists may be found guilty of phone hacking.
C.Andy Coulson should be held innocent of the charge.
D.phone hacking will be accepted on certain occasions.

答案:B
解析:
推理判断第三段第一句指出,Andy Coulson因为参与手机黑客案件被裁定有罪,然而他的前任却被认定是无罪的。通过这一事件,作者得出的结论是(as hacking trial concludes):由此造成的诚信缺失广泛问题依然存在(the wider issue of dearth of integrity still stands),即仍然存在一些人没有被裁定有罪。接着文章指出了在新闻业中,已经有记者被认定非法侵入用户手机。而还有一些在等待审判(others await trial),由此

According to the first two paragraphs,Elisabeth was upset by

A.the consequences of the current sorting mechanism
B.companies’financial loss due to immoral practices.
C.governmental ineffectiveness on moral issues.
D.the wide misuse of integrity among institutions.

答案:
解析:
事实细节通过题干可以将此题锁定在前两段。第一段指出Elisabeth谈到了“在很多机构中都存在着令人沮丧的诚信缺失”。接下来第二句指出造成这种诚信缺失的原因是:大家普遍认同了社会中唯一的分类机制(sorting mechanism)应该是利益和市场。即诚信缺失是由社会的分类机制所导致的,这正是让Elizabeth感到烦心的事情。故正确答案为A the consequences of the current sorting mechanism(目前这种分类机制的后果)。其中题干中的upset是原文

第6题:

Which of the following was the most important for a “gentleman-in-waiting”?

[A] Manners.

[B] Education. 、

[C] Moral.

[D] Personality.


正确答案:A

本题考查了事实细节。文章第三段一开始,作者就提到,对于绅士们来说,美德首先包括了高雅和风度,与其身份地位相符的行为方式,教育仅仅是学会高雅的一种方式而已。由此可见,在绅士们眼中,[A]项“行为举止”是最重要的。[B]项与原文不符,[C]项和[D]项在原文中没有明显的论述。

The author holds that the current collective doctrine shows

A.generally distorted values
B.unfair wealth distribution
C.a marginalized lifestyle
D.a rigid moral cote

答案:A
解析:
推理判断通过题干中的“collective doctrine”可以直接定位到文中第五段第三行。该句指出“collective doctrine”主张社会的分类机制应该是利益。接下来对此概念进行了进一步的阐释,指出真正起作用的是那些表示利益的词“efficiency,flexibility,shareholder value,business-friendly,wealth generation…”,而表示公平、正义的词(justice,fairness,tolerance…)则被置于边缘。可见,

正确答案:A

细节题。文章第三段一开始,作者就提到,对于绅士们来说,美德首先包括了高雅和风度,与其身份地位相符的行为方式,教育仅仅是学会高雅的一种方式而已。由此可见,在绅士们眼中,[A]项“行为举止”是最重要的,而不是[B ,[C]项“道德”,与原文包含很多内容的virtue(美德)不符,[D]项在原文中没有提及。

Which of the following is suggested in the last paragraph?

A.The quality of writing is of primary importance.
B.Common humanity is central news reporting.
C.Moral awareness matters in exciting a newspaper.
D.Journalists need stricter industrial regulations.

答案:C
解析:
推理判断作者在最后一段前两句话指出,新闻报道的目的不是为了促进读者的理解,也不是为了追求公平或者违背人类共有的人性,而是通过追求发行量的影响率来破坏人们的生活。即文章从一开始指出的一个问题,为了追求利益而造成了诚信的丧失。从“ruin”一词可以看出,作者对新闻记者的这一行为持否定的态度。并且通过Ms.Brooks女士的行为加以佐证。作者通过正话反说的方式,突出新闻报道过程中诚信的重要性。故正确答案为选项C moral awareness matters in editing a newspap
