【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一款用来测试人工智能极限的机器人在

考试中的表现和它的弊端。

manyotherfamousJapaneseuniversities,”可知，前半句从句的主语thescore就是主句的主语

it所代指的。故选A.

绩非常好。故选D.

(4)B主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了参加考试的机器人在各个学科方面的

不同表现。故选B.

【点评】本文是一篇关于介绍机器人的说明性阅读理解。主要以细节理解题为主，抓住关

键词，理解文章主旨。其中第二题比较有难度，需要排除其它选项。主旨题看前面一，二

段一般可以透漏出端倪。

【点评】英语阅读理解继续文解题技巧：英语记叙文以描写叙述为主，主要描写人物、事

件、地点、或过程。特点是，其主题往往潜伏在字里行间，没有直接地表白出来;文章主旨

要透过体察所揭示的人物、事件来进行提炼。描写手法大多按时间跨度、空间顺序、上下

顺序来展开。阅读记叙文体应采取略读和扫读的方法，快速抓住文中描写的主要内容，从

整体上去把握文章的连贯性，进而大体上揣测出作者的写作意图及情感主线。高考阅读就

记叙文设题大多以细节理解为主。
