根据本段标题可知,本段是介绍“关于1+1=2的论证有300多页”。D项中的oneplusoneequalstwo符合本段内容。2.解析:选G 根据本空后的例子可知,同样是在说生病,但是有的时候用the,有的时候不用the,所以说the“这个词实际上非常奇怪”,只是因为它太常见了,所以“大部分人从来没想过这回事”。3.解析:选E 本空前两句分别介绍了关于打哈欠的两种不同理论,由此可推测“实际上,关于我们为什么打哈欠现在还没有一个一致同意的理论”。本空后一句中的nooneknowsthateither也提示了大家还不知道为什么会打哈欠、打哈欠为什么会传染。4.解析:选C 根据本空前的内容可知,我们有时会以自己与某一地标性建筑的相对位置来定义左右,“但是如果我们是与一个盲人交谈呢”,又该如何定义左右呢?这也是为什么如何定义左右困扰了哲学家很多年。5.解析:选B 根据本段列举的例子及最后一句“Theirenjoymentoftheproductwasn'tbasedonappreciationofwine-itwasbasedonthefactthattheyweretolditwasgoodwine”可知,“我们喜欢一样东西不是因为它能带给我们愉悦,而是因为其他的原因”。Ⅵ.课时微写作(根据汉语提示完成小作文)①At_the_very_beginning_of(在……一开始时)the1950s,China②set_out_to_explore(着手探索)space.In2008whenmillionsofpeople③tuned_in_to_witness(收看节目来见证)Chinesefirstspacewalk,they④burst_into_cheers(突然欢呼起来).Itwasacknowledgedas⑤a_historic_event(历史事件),whichwas⑥a_big_leap(一次大的飞跃)inthehistoryofspaceexplorationinChina.Atthesametime,ChinabeganitslunarexplorationprogramandChina⑦made_it(做到了).⑧In_spite_of(尽管)ourgreatachievements,weoughttobemodestandworkharder.
