B、Sarcastic.

C、Informative.

D^Pessimistic.

标准答案：C

A、interruplingaprogramofspeakers

refusingtoattendacompulsoryactivity

C、protestinginanimproperwaybreachingtheuniversityrules

D、causingascufflehurtinglotsofpeoplefromtheplaceotherthanColumbia

标准答案：C-

知识点解析：本题是事实细节题。虽然受第一句的影响有可能选A,但A只是说

明这些学生当时的行为，而接下来的短语“bechargedwin”与题目中的“wereaccused

。产是近义表达，说明他们的罪名是他们的行为违反了学校规定。

60、Whydidn'tLeeC.Bollingerpresentsomethingmoreabouttheviolation?

street

C、channel

D、hope

标准答案：C

知识点解析：本题是词义判断题。avenue有“方法、途径”的含义，这句话的意思是

“Mr.Bollinger是那些被告学生上诉的最后途径。”所以选C。

62>Inthelastparagraph,whydidEvaFortessay"Itkindofupsetme"?

A、Becausetheuniversitydidn'ttreatitsstudentsandpeoplenotaffiliatedwith

C、Becausetherewouldbeanincreasingresistancefromtheuniversityagainst

performingstudentactivities.

D、BecausepeoplenotaffiliatedwithColumbiaweregettingtold,"Don'tcomeback”.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：本题是信息推断题。原文最后一段解释了她upsel的原因是学校以外

的人在学校里打架闹事，校方仅仅说“不准再来”就草草了事，但是本校的学生却面

临着校方的严肃处理，布出她认为校方不够公平，因此选A。
