第16题【单选题】

【阅读判断】Backin1969,USPresidentRichardNixonconfidentlypredicted:/zlnthe

presidentintheUS.

8

A、True

B>False

C、NotGiven

【正确答案】A

【答案解析】答案选Ao问题句说"迄今为止在美国没有一个女人曾经被选举为

总统"。本段说的是“1969年，美国总统RichardNixon很有信心地预测：’在下一

个50年里，我们将会看见一个女总统，这或许比你想象的更快些'今天距离

Nixon总统给出的最终期限已经不远了，美国人现在正关注这可能性"。相邻语句

的句意相关，显然，定冠词结构"thepossibility"指答案相关句中提到的"可能出现

美国女总统"。从该句中可以推断出“从1969年到现在为止，美国还没有出现女

总统"。因此问题句提供了正确信息。

语动作同时发生。

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.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。
