55、Theauthorusestheexamplesofcarpentryandreadingtoshow.

A、theimportanceofmakingprediction

B、thesimilarityinusingone'ssenses

C、thenecessityofmakinguseofone'sknowledge

D、themosteffectivemethodindoinganything

标准答案：A

知识点解析：答题依据在第一段。该答案与该段在文章中的作用和全文中心思想密

切相关。文章指出木工与阅读者之间的相似之处就在于：借助知识和经验来“预测”

各自的活动。选择项［B］、|Ch［D］不妥之处就在于未点出prediclion这一主题词,

与所讨论主题关系不大，故均不是正确答案。

56>Predictionisusefulbecauseofallthefollowingreasonsexceptthat.

A、it'saskilloftenusedindealingwithadifficultarticle

B、readingismakingconstanthypotheses

C、withoutit,wewillreadandreadjustourthoughts

D、ithelpstounderstandwhatweread

标准答案：C

知识点解析：答题依据在第二段。［A］,［同，［D］二个选项在文章中都有陈述和提

及。但是选择项［C］概念矛盾，与原文意思不符。文章的意思是说，我们时常耍复

读某一部分内容，调整思路。这一事实本身就是预测过程中的表现，而不是如选项

［C］中所说“不进行预测，我们就需要调整思路”。

57、Inthethirdparagraph,theauthorintendsto.

A、giveexamplesoftheusefulnessofthemethod.

B、showtheadvantagesofmakingaccuratepredictions

C、revealthetextandquestionsinmakingprediction

D、demonstratehowasoundpredictionismade

标准答案：D

知识点解析：该题要求我们概括第三段的写作意图。该段第一句话是主题句。它表

明了这一段的写作意图：youmayliketotryoutthetextandquestions.(你可能希望

通过一篇文章和问题尝试一下这个方法)。由此，其意图在于演示“预测”阅读法

(demonstratetheuseofthemethod)o接着，文章介绍了实施步骤，Todoso,take

a.../Move.../Check...。根据上述分析，我们呵确定［D］为该题答案。

58、Accordingtotheauthor,tomakeasoundprediction,onemust.

A、havesomeknowledgeoftheoverallstructureanddetailsofatext

B、takeapieceofcardandmaskthetextandrevealoneatime

C、memorizeallthedetailsofthetext

D、keepinmindtheauthor'spurposeinwritingthearticle

标准答案：A-

知识点解析：这是一道细节题。我们可以发现，问题中的关键词t。makeasound

prediction对应于文章第三段最后一句话中的tomakeaccuratepredictiono该部分内

容的意思是，如果我们要进行准确的预测，我们需要回看前面读过的内容，因为我

们必须对细节和文章的整体结构做到心中有数。据此，我们可以确定［A］为该题答

案。

59>Whichofthefollowingwouldtheauthormostprobablyagreewith?

A、Thismethodneedsimprovinginspiteofitsobviousadvantages.

B、Thismethodismosteffectivewhenusedunconsciously.

C^Thismethod,ifusedproperly,willimproveone'scomprehension.

D、Thismethodisparticularlyusefullorforeignlanguagelearners.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：该题检查考生对作者观点的把握。文章告诉我们，作者极力介绍和推

荐预测的阅读方法。文中未涉及该方法的不足之处。总之，作者认为该方法有助于

提高对文章的理解程度。［C］为正确答案。其余选项或者文章未提及，或者不反映

作者的观点。
