参考解析

解析:
细节题。由文章首段尾句的beautiful和modest可排除B、C两项。第二段首句中的ascribe intellect to her表明D项也是她的一个品质,故排除。文章开头提到,经过三十年的幸福婚姻,Virginius还是提醒自己Victoria除了缺少一点点令人心动的脆弱外具备一切魅力。由此可见Victoria最缺乏的品质就是脆弱(delicacy),选项A与之相符。故答案为A项。

A man and his girlfriend were married. It was a large celebration.All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony and to partake of the festivities and celebrations. All had a wonderful time.The bride was gorgeous in her white wedding gown and the groom was very dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a proposal,“I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our marriage,” she offered.“Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives happier together. ”Her husband agreed. So each of them went to a separate room in the house and thought of the things that annoyed them about the other. They thought about this question for the rest of the day and wrote down what they came up with.The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists.“I'll start,” offered the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it. Enough to fill 3 pages in fact. As she started, reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband's eyes.“What’s wrong?” she asked.“Nothing,” the husband replied, “keep reading your list.”The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and folded her hands over the top of it.“Now,you read your list and then we'll talk about the things on both of our lists, ” she said happily.Quietly the husband stated, “I don't have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are. I don't want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn't want to try and change anything about you. ”The wife, touched by his honesty, the depth of his love for her, and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.(1)Which is NOT true according to the passage?A、The man and his girlfriend had a great wedding.B、The woman wanted reasons for a divorce.C、The man respected his wife very much.D、The woman was moved by her husband's kindness.(2) The woman suggested writing down another's weak points, in order to ________.A、make her marriage betterB、show her annoyance with her husbandC、let other people knowD、help her husband think independently(3) What is the writer's attitude to the husband's behavior?A、PositiveB、Ironical(讽刺的)C、OppositeD、None of the above.(4) According to your understanding, why did tears appear in the husband's eyes?A、Because his wife was too perfect.B、Because he accepted her as a whole, but she didn't.C、Because he loved her more than she loved him.D、Because his wife was too rude (粗鲁的).(5) It can be inferred from the passage that the wifeA、would shorten her list.B、would not let other people know her husband's bad aspects.C、would learn to respect and accept her husband fully.D、would be confused.

Text 2The real heroine of the novel stands at one remove to the narrative. On the face of it, readers are more likely to empathize with, and be curious about, the mysterious and resourceful slave, Sarah, who forms one point of an emotional triangle. Sarah is the property of Manon, and came with her to a failing Louisiana sugar plantation on her marriage to the good-for-nothing, bullying owner. But Manon’s husband is soon struck by Sarah, and the proof lies in their idiot small son, Walter.However, the reader is forced to see things through Manon’s eyes, not Sarah’s, and her consciousness is not a comfortable place to be. Never a please or a thank you passes her lips when talking to slaves, though manners is the order of the day in white society. Manon is enormously attracted by inter-racial marriage (for the place and time—the early 19th century—such a concern would not be unusual, but in her case it seems pathological). Walter, with “his father’s curly red hair and green eyes, his mother’s golden skin, her full, pushing-forward lips”, is the object of her especial hatred, but she chatters on about all the “dreadful mixed-blooded”, the objectionable “yellow” people.Beyond Manon’s polarized vision, we glimpse “free negros” and the emerging black middle-class. To Manon’s disgust, such people actually have self-respect. In New Orleans buying shoes, Manon is taken aback by the shopkeeper’s lack of desired respect. Mixed race prostitutes acquired the affections of male planters by giving them something mysterious their wives cannot often What that might be, and why wives can’t offer it too, are questions Manon can’t even ask, let alone answer.The first third of the book explores the uneasy and unsustainable peace between Manon, Sarah and the man always called just “my husband” or “he”. Against the background of violent slave revolts and equally savage revenges, it’s clear the peace cannot last. It’s part of the subtlety of this book that as the story develops and the inevitable explosion occurs, our view of all the characters swiftly changes. Sarah turns out to deserve all the suspicion Manon directs at her; at the point of death Manon’s husband displays an admirable toughness and courage; and Manon herself wins the reader’s reluctant admiration for her bravery, her endurance, and her total lack of self-pity.Perhaps the cruelest aspect of this society is the way it breaks down and distorts family affections. A slave’s baby is usually sold soon after birth; Sarah’s would-be husband, if he wants her, must buy her; and Manon herself, after all, is only the property of her husband.第26题:Which of the following reflects Manon’s attitude towards colored people?[A] Sympathetic.[B] Suspicious.[C] Concerned.[D] Disgusted.

We learn that as the story develops _____.[A] readers will think differently of all the characters[B] Manon’s husband will win back her admiration[C] the emotional crisis will be swiftly resolved[D] all the suspicion will be proved against Sarah

Have you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings(误解)?Little wonder.We often believe we′re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are,according to Boza?Keysar,a professor at the University of Chicago.In his recent study,speakers tried to express their?meanings using unclear sentences.Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the?time.Here′s some good advice to reduce misunderstanding:(1)Don′t trust what you see from the listener.Listeners often nod,look at you or say"uhhuh"to?be polite or move the conversation along.But it′s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.(2)Train the editor(编辑)in your head.If you say,"Beth discusses her problems with her?husband,"it′s not clear whether she′s talking to her husband or about him.Try instead,"Beth?talks to her husband about her problems."or"Beth talks to others about the problems with her?husband."(3)Ask listeners to repeat your message.Introduce your request by saying"I?want to be sure I said?that right."Questions like"How does that sound?"or"Does that make sense?"may also work.(4)Listen well.When on the receiving end,ask questions to be sure you′re on the same?page.After all,it isn′t just the speaker′s job to make his speech understood.By Train the editor in your head,the speakers are advised__________A.to get themselves trained by a good editorB.to discuss problems with their husbands or wivesC.to express themselves in long but simple sentencesD.to make sure each sentence has only one meaning
