13.A

14.B

15.D【分析】本文是一篇说明文，美国原本被认为是“机会之国”，只要你有能力就可以在美国取得成功。但是最近的一项研究发现情况并非如此，文章对此项研究的结果做了具体说明，并分析了出现这一情况的具体原因。【12题详解】细节理解题。在第二段后两句“Hereisthefinding:The“ragstoriches”storyismuchmorecommoninHollywoodthanonMainStreet.Only6percentofchildrenborntoparentswithfamilyincomeattheverybottommovetothetop.”研究发现“白手起家”的故事现在只存在于好莱坞的电影里，只有百分之6的出生于社会底部家庭的孩子长大以后能够成为社会顶尖阶层的成员。也就是说“白手起家”的故事现在更多是幻想而不是现实。故C项正确。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第一句“EvenmoretroublingisthatournationofAmericaasthelandofopportunitygetslittlesupportfromthedata.”可知被认为是“机会之国”的美国在数据统计里并没有得到任何支持，研究发现现在的美国普通人很难得到平等的发展机会。所以作者认为美国人要重新塑造“机会之国”的形象。故A项正确。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段“…thatmostofthefinancialgainswhitefamilieshavemadeinthepastthreedecadescanbeattributedto(归功于)theentryofwhitewomenintothelaborforce.ThisismuchlesstrueforAfrican-Americans”可知美国白人挣得比黑人更多，主要是因为白人获得了更多的就业机会，白人和黑人之间经济上存在着不公平的现象。故B项正确。【15题详解】主旨大意题。美国原本被认为是“机会之国”，只要你有能力就可以在美国取得成功。但是最近的一项研究发现情况并非如此，文章对此项研究的结果做了具体说明，并分析了出现这一情况的具体原因。所以D项符合文章中心思想。【点睛】本文小题4考查了主旨大意中的标题选择，文章中并没有对A项进行说明，属于“无中生有”；BC项只是文章的部分内容，属于“以偏概全”。标题位于文章之首，用来高度概括文章内容，点明文章主题。它是段落中心思想最精练的表达形式。标题可帮助读者迅速推测出整篇文章的主要内容，抓住文章的中心，把握作者的观点和意图。那么如何选择文章的标题呢？首先，要考虑标题对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何。一般要求能覆盖全文内容，体现文章主旨。要避免下列三种情况：①概括不够（多表现为部分代整体，从而导致范围太小）；②过度概括（多表现为脱离本文章内容的发挥）；③以事实、细节替代抽象具体的大意。其次，要考虑标题的针对性，即标题范围要恰当，针对性强。要在阅读原文的基础上，仔细考虑所选标题与文章主题是否有密切的关系。既不能太大，也不能太小，太大则中心就不突出，太小也发挥不了应起的作用；精确度高，不能随意改变语言的表意程度及色彩。它可以是单词、短语，也可以是句子。再次要注意标题的醒目性，标题的选择要简洁、突出、新颖，标题是文章的点睛之笔，是文章的灵魂和门面。标题的好坏往往影响了文章的可读性，读者常常从标题上决定文章的阅读取舍。故标题一般比较醒目，甚至比较离奇，以此来吸引读者对文章的兴趣。19.ItmaybeoneofBritain’smostsuccessfulexports–MissWorld.This53-year-oldeventtookplaceinChinalastweekandattractedover120womenworldwidewithknockoutlooksinamadstruggleforthecrown.TraditionalvalueshavelongkepttheChinese,especiallywomen,fromdisplayingbeauty.ButChinesepeoplehavenowchangedtheirattitudetowardbeautycontest,althoughsomemenwillstillbeshoutingthatthewinnerisnomorebeautifulthanhiswifeorhisformergirlfriendorevenhismotherinasourtone.Butsuchmenarenotshoutingfortherightreason.Thequestiontobeaskedis:Whyisn’tthereaMr.WorldBeautyContest?Andafurtherquestiontobeaskedis:Doestakingpartinabeautycontestshowawoman’s
