1. E。 分析:首先注意段落中是否出现重复的 词汇 —段落核心词,发现没有明显的核心词出现,所以关注段首句和/或段未句,发现段首句的结构是“许多博物馆的馆长意识到..”,因此判断该句是观点句—借助权威人士之口阐述观点,但是该句句意与被选项之间似乎并没有关系,段未句说“博物馆应该是喜欢的地方”。注意段落中的特殊句子:举例句:In many science museums,for example, there are no guided tours,Many museums now provide educational services and children’s departments 这些句子在讲述博物馆的变化,但是段落中并没有提到“造成变化的原因”,因此排除A,比较剩下的选项判断E合适:D和F都太具体,而E正是对段首句和段未句的句意的概括。
思路特点:借助段落中特殊句子(往往是举例句)的句意缩小答案选择范围。
A Causes of Changes
B Increasing Number of Museums and Visitors
D Movies Shown in Museums
F Places to Visit
3 Paragraph 4
4 One cause of a11 these changes is the increase in wealth and leisure time.Another cause is the rising percentage of young people in the population.Many of these young people are college students or college graduates.They are better educated than their parents.they see things in a new and different way.They are not content to stand and look at works of art;they want art they can participate in.The same is true of science and history.In the US, certain groups who formerly were too poor to care about anything beyond the basic needs of daily life are now becoming curious about the world around them.The young people in these groups,like young people in general,have benefited from a better education than their parents received.All these groups,and the rest of the population as well.have been influenced by television,which has taught them about other places and other times.
2. A。分析:注意到段首句和接下来的句子中出现的同样的词汇cause,而且这两句中的结构分别是“造成这些变化的一个原因..”,“另一个原因是..”这些结构正好与A呼应, 因此判断A是答案。
思路特点:段落核心词决定答案范围/答案。
B Increasing Number of Museums and Visitors
D Movies Shown in Museums
F Places to Visit
4 Paragraph 5
5 The effect of all this has been to change existing museums and to encourage the building of new ones.In the US and Canada alone,there are now more than 6,000 museums, almost twice as many as there were 25 years ago.About half of them are devoted to history, and the rest are evenly divided between the arts and sciences.The number of visitors, according to the American Association of museums,has risen to more than 700 million a year.
