    In the following article, some sentences or paragraphs have been removed. For questions 1 to 5, choose the
    most suitable one from the list AF to fit into each of the numbered gaps. There is ONE which does not fit in
    any of the gaps.
    Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors
    and generals, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We
    do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seagoing boat, or calculated the length of the year?
    but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so much so that on all the
    highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general.
    1. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight? so do savages? hence to
    be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized.
    2. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some
    way of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side,
    and then saying that that side which has killed most has won.
    3. That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two
    greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed. And while today it is true that people do not
    fight and kill each other in the streets, nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like
    savages. But we must not expect too much. After all, the race of men has only just started. From the point of
    view of evolution, human beings are very young children indeed, babies, in fact, of a few months old.
    4. These figures are difficult to grasp? so let us scale them down. Suppose that we reckon the whole past
    of living creatures on the earth as one hundred years? then the whole past of man works out at about one
    month, and during that month there have been civilizations for between seven and eight hours.
    5. Taking man' civilized past at about seven or eight hours, we may estimate his future at about one hundred
    thousand years. Thus mankind is only at the beginning of its civilized life, and as I say, we must not expect
    too much. The past of 8 man has been on the whole a pretty beastly business, a business of fighting and killing.
    We must not expect even civilized peoples not to have done these things. All we can ask is that they will
    sometimes have done something else.
    [A] Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently-
    this, after all, is what conquerors and generals have done-is not being civilized.
    [B] And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the
    greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors.
    [C] We have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly in daily life. However, every year
    conflicts between countries and nations are still claiming thousands of lives.
    [D] And not only has won, but, because it has won, has been in the right. For that is what going to war
    means? it means saying that might is right.
    [E] So you see there has been little time to learn in, but there will be oceans of time in which to learn better.
    [F] Scientists reckon that there has been life of some sort on the earth in the form of jellyfish and that kind
    of creature for about twelve hundred million years? but there have been men for only one million years, and
    there have been civilized men for about eight thousand years at the outside.

  • 人生感悟类阅读

人生感悟类阅读的概念

生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪,使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文,如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事,有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。


生活感悟类阅读解题指导:

一、文章特点:

生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪,使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文,如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事,有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”,点出全文的中心思想,就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂,耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似,一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句(论点),其它句子围绕主题展开论述(论据),论证方法多种多样,或举例,或引用名言,或正反对照等。

二、解题技巧:

针对生活感悟类文章的特点,做这类文章的完形填空时,要特别注意以下几点:
1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文,找出when,where,who,what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔,充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。
2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句,有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。
3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域,而是谈一些小事和简单的道理,所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣,读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度,从而提高做题的准确度。因此,考生在平时要做一个有心人,即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事,思考人生的一些基本道理,多阅读一些短小精悍的美文,多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心,做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
