第30题【单选题】

【阅读选择】Duringthehourswhenyoulabourthroughyourworkyoumaysaythat

accordingtothepassage?

A、Unawarenessofenergycycles.

B、Familiarmonologues.

C、Achangeinafamilymember'senergycycle.

D^Attemptstocontroltheenergycycleofotherfamilymembers.

【正确答案】A

［答案解析］本题的关键是看懂本段的最后一句(即："Muchfamilyquarrellingends

whenhusbandsandwivesrealizewhattheseenergycyclesmean,andwhichcycle

eachmemberofthefamilyhas.z,),同时联系本段的第四句和第五句(即："Forsome

peoplethepeakcomesduringthemorning.Forothersitcomesintheafternoonor

evening.〃)的意思。该句的直接意思是"如果丈夫和妻子能明白能量周期是怎么

回事，以及家庭每个成员有什么样的周期，很多家庭争吵就会停止」也就是说，

家庭争吵的发生是因为丈夫和妻子不了解能量周期是怎么回事，更谈不上了解每

个家庭成员有什么样的能量周期了。因此A项：Unawarenessofenergycycles(不

知道能量周期)应是正确答案。

【答案解析】答案选Bo题中说鼠标脏了，就得换用新的。这一说法与原文不符。
