第一篇阅读
一、文章大意与结构分析
本文是一篇关于考古发现的说明文。首先讲述了“archaeology”(考古学)一词的来源,论及考古学家和历史学家在对待历史材料上的不同需求。接下来叙述了一具名为“Lindow Man”且保存完好的古尸的发现过程及对尸体身份和死因的猜测。 二、试题解析
1.【答案】B。细节题。根据原文第一段第一句话可知,“archaeology”一词源于希腊语。因此可答案选择B。
2.【答案】D。细节题。根据“these”一词的上下语境可判断,该词是指上句话中的“objects left behind by the humans of long ago”,很久以前人们留下来诸如骨头、石头和金属之类的物体,因此答案选择D。
3. 【答案】D。细节题。根据文章第四段的“he was in a very watery environment”和“the water in the bog was very acidic”,可知是由于充满水的环境以及水里面的酸使尸体保存比较完好,因此答案选D。
4. 【答案】B。细节题。根据文章第三段可知“Lindow Man”是bog沼泽的名称,故A错;“Lindow Man”是两个施工中的男子发现,故C错;根据最后一段,可知“Lindow Man”是一个很少做体力活的富人,故D错;而从第一段中,可得知B对。
5. 【答案】C。主旨题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要介绍了“Lindow Man”这一考古学上的惊人发现,而非讲述考古学的概念,也非考古学与历史的关系或“Lindow Man”的死因,因此ABD均为以偏概全。 三、长难句分析
1. However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs, but archaeologists(考古学家)learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago。直译:然而,大多数历史学家使用诸如信函、油画和照片之类的纸质证据,而考古学家则从很久以前人类留下的物体获取信息。
该句较长,而且还要联系下文对objects进行详解,然而只要能把握作者对比历史学家和考古学家的意图,就比较容易理解。
2.It was because he was in a very watery environment, safe from the bacteria that need oxygen to live. 直译:这是因为他处在一个非常潮湿多水的环境中,免受了需要氧气才能存活的细菌的侵扰。
此句难点在于safe from,它是一个固定短语,意为“不遭受…”。 四、核心词汇
1. evidence证据2. despite尽管3. preserve保存4. manual体力的 五、全文翻译
