>>>2017年湖北自考公共課串講練習(xí)題【匯總】

[閱讀選擇]We are so used to our life on the surface of the earth that it can be quite an effort for our mind to break free of all the ideas that we take for granted. Because we can feel that things are heavy， we think of “weight” as being a fixed quality in an object， but it is not really fixed at all. If you could take a one-pound packet of butter 4， 000 miles out from the earth， it would weigh only a quarter of a pound.

How much would four pounds of tea weigh if it was taken 4，000 miles out from the surface of the earth?

A、1 pound.

B、2 pounds.

C、3 pounds.

D、4 pounds.

正確答案：D

答案解析：本題問(wèn)的是一磅茶如果被帶出離地球表面4000英里的地方，重量會(huì)是多少?4000這個(gè)數(shù)字比較關(guān)鍵，因?yàn)樵诒径巫詈笠痪渲谐霈F(xiàn)了這個(gè)詞，一看該句If you could take a one-pound packet of butter 4, 000 miles out from the earth, it would weigh only a quarter of a pound.只是把名詞換了一下，很顯然答案就是變成原來(lái)重量的四分之一，因此正確答案是A。

2.單選題

[閱讀選擇]For any given task in Britain there are more men than are needed. Strong unions keep them there. In Fleet Street， home of some of London‘s biggest dailies， it is understood that when two unions quarrel over three jobs the argument is settled by giving each union two. That means 33 per cent over manning， 33 per cent less productivity than could be obtained.

What happens when disputes over job opportunities arise among British unions?

A、Thirty three per cent of the workers will be out of work.

B、More jobs will be created by the union.

C、More people will be employed than necessary.

D、The unions will try to increase productivity.

正確答案：C

答案解析：本段開(kāi)頭告訴讀者“…there are more men than are needed…when two unions quarrel over three jobs, the argument is settled by giving each union two”，接下來(lái)作者又進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明其實(shí)質(zhì)，即它意味著“33 per cent over manning, 33 per cent less productivity than could be obtained”。
