arch试题(3)
题排除法,以visual art做关键词定位至本段最后一句,A对,不选;以cultural values做关键词定位至第二句,B对,不选;以artistic and scientific dimensions做关键词定位至第一句,C对,不选;D选项与A选项在同一句,indirect effect和directly的原文说反,错,选
可行的,原文说了建筑的若干优点,比如提供遮风避雨的场所,丰富了空间,经济上怎么样,肯定是个正面的词,A存在中性,错;B没有问题,虽然是正面但太过,不选,C正确,D非常可能虽然正面,但程度不足,不选
词汇题,问的是第二段第三句中的enhance,备选项分别是protect, improve, organize, match,enhance提高,原文中与enhance their way of life并列的动词是shelter,庇护之意,所以再选protect的话重叠,而且也不应该是保护他们的生活方式;organize组织match搭配都不能与庇护并列,所以improve改善生活方式最靠谱
order for只是一个表目的的状语,暂时放弃不看,同时because那部分插入语不看,整个句子就变成了建筑师们采用的方法是不变的,尽管建筑材料发生了很大变化。A没说原文的建筑材料发生了很大变化,而且law没有限制size and strength,所以完全不对;B错在in order的那个状语部分,increase原文没说;C说not based on physical laws与原文相反,错,D正确
设计,所在句说全世界的建筑也要怎么样根据简直材料的限制,因为有also,所以是接着前一句的,前句在上题中已经分析过了,说建筑师为了达到要求采用了多种方法,说明建筑的产生应该是一个从无到有的过程,所以B选项create最合适,A联合C介绍,引进D建议,表明都不对
完整的,构成整体的,原文说建筑材料和建筑方法是建筑什么样的部分,代入选项也知道应该是A重要的部分,B可变的C实际的都不靠谱,D独立的虽然意思基本说的通,但明显违反原文,建筑材料和方法应该是互相影响的,不能独立
以material为关键词定位至本段第二句和第三句,说以前必须根据建筑材料来设计建筑,现在我们可以发明新材料,A说不容易找到新材料,反了;C的三种材料应该是以前不是现在;D没说;B说现在建筑材料充分,不会再影响建筑设计,是原文的意思,正确
以modern buildings做关键词定位至最后一句,说比较现在和一百年前大小相似的建筑的重量我们就能发现建筑技术所取得的进步,也就是以前的重现在的轻,所以答案是C,其他的都没说
本段将建筑结构与人体的结构进行了比较,发现;额三个共同点,排除法,A以equipment做关键词定位至第一句的最后半句,equipment像的应该是vital organs and systems,不是一个component;以early building做关键词定位至文章最后一句,skeleton和skin是一样的,所以和人不同;C的change原文没说;D正确因为原文说现代建筑像人体,以前的建筑的skeleton和skin是一个,所以现代建筑比之前的建筑更像人体
艰巨的,困难的。原文说过去整个城市都是靠切割和堆积石头搞定的,这个任务肯定是比较困难的,而代入原文的话似乎有技巧的和有必要的也是靠谱的,但D分享的一定不对,如果说切割是需要技巧的话,堆积应该是不需要的,注意不要联想。堆积和切割石头一定是造城市的必要任务么?可以用木头和其他的建筑材料,所以necessary太偏了,正确答案difficult
修辞目的题,读doorways and windows所在的一句话,说门窗是通过把承的石头横梁放在space上面形成的,读前一句的时候发现也是个例子,所以不是答案,往下句看,说想克服石头带给建筑的障碍,必须有一个新发明。按照原文,门窗的形成是一种克服石头带来的障碍的一种方法,所以答案是C
以arch为关键词定位至thatinvention was the arch句,接上题看到的那句,想克服石头带给建筑的障碍,必须有一个新发明,这个发明就是arch,所以说arch的出现使得其他建筑方法成为可能,B正确。罗马人是第一个把arch广泛用在地上建筑的,不是第一个用arch的,A错,也没follow前人的方法,D错;是把压力分散,divert,不是往中点集中,C说反
和again unifying都说明正确插入点之前必须说把skeleton and skin分开,所以A和B不对,C之后的suchequipment指代C之前的内容,过渡紧密,不适合插入句子,所以D是正确答案
选项对应全文首段首句,正确
Over选项对应第四段第三句和第三段首句,正确
Throughout选项与第五段首句相反,错
Both选项是细节,不选
Modern选项错,因为原文没说现代的建筑不好看,不选
The discovery选项第六段最后一句,正确
