However，with the special patience and superstition (迷信) of a schoolboy，I looked at every word of the text.And by the time I reached the last word，pleased，I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic，and seriously crossed Plato off my list.21On hearing the teachers suggestion of reading，the writer thought_.Aone must read as many books as possibleBa student should not have a complicated ideaCit was impossible for one to read two thousand booksDstudents ought to make a list of the books they had read解析：选A。细节理解题。从第一段后半部分可以看出，作者在听到老师有关阅读的建议后，就开始争取读尽量多的书，并把自己读过的书都列成了一个书目。22While at high school，the writer_.Ahad plans for readingBlearned to educate himselfConly read books over 100 pagesDread only one book several times解析：选A。细节理解题。从第一段可以得知，作者并不是只读超过100页的书，更不是只是反复地读一本书，更没有关于他学着自己教育自己的表述。23The underlined phrase “with finality” probably means_.Afirmly BclearlyCproudly Dpleasantly解析：选A。词义猜测题。在他的一生中，是他所阅读过的这些书使他取得了如今的成就。根据上下文的理解，我们可推知这位科学家是很“坚定地”跟记者说的。24The writers purpose in mentioning.The Republic is to_.A. explain why it was included in the listBdescribe why he seriously crossed it off the listCshow that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understandDprove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word解析：选C。推理判断题。作者说他阅读柏拉图的书是为了说明他当时读书比较盲目，读了很多深奥难懂的书。25The writer provides two book lists to_.Ashow how he developed his point of viewBtell his reading experience at high schoolCintroduce the two personsreading methodsDexplain that he read many books at high school解析：选B。推理判断题。作者在文中说他曾经列的两个书单，是为了支撑他整篇文章的主题：他在中学的时候是如何读书的，而并不是他如何形成自己的观点、介绍两个人的读书方法、或者解释他在中学的时候读过很多书。.信息匹配请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。首先，请阅读下列应用文：AHOLIDAY HOMES IN MALLORCAHoliday houses in Mallorca sailing and fishing portquiet even in summer season.Beautifully situated houses with sights of sea and mountains，yet near to shops and restaurants.Cars and bicycles for hire.Sailing and sports clubs nearby.Oneweek stay costs 150.BITALY IN COMFORTLuxury coach (carriage ) trips of Italy，out of normal holiday season.21 days to visit five Italian cities starting from London 1stMay to 1st September .
