Some of his most famous buildings are right here in the Chicago area, including the Twin Towers office building and the Saint Lawrence Seaway Recreation Center. His many articles on functional architecture and urban planning have appeared in scores of journals over the past 20 years, and half a dozen textbooks are to his credit, including one of the books that we use for this seminar一Trends in Urban Design.

If you have the wish and really make a cooccicue sffert Oe cociehbee tbings, then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember them. But even if you are successful, the re are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you. It often happens that we remember things that did not really happen. (23) Oae morning last week, for example, I got up and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night, yet I clearly remembered locking it carefully the night before. Whafs more, memory ”tricks” work the other way as well. Once in a while, we remember not doing something and then find out that we did it. One day last month, for example, I was sitting in a barber shop waiting for my turn to get a haircut, and suddenly I realized that I got a haircut two days ago at the barber shop across the street from my office. Frequently, we seem to find something funny and amusing in incidents caused by people’s forgetfulness or absent-mindedness. (24) Stories about absent-mindedness have been told for years, and we never get tired of hearing new ones. (25) Unfortunately, however, absent-mindedness is not always funny. There are times when ”tricks” of our memory can cause us great trouble.

口文章大意

本文以时间为顺序介绍了妇女在教学工作中所起的重要作用。

邑试题详解

26. J）。命详解从句法的角度看，这里缺少的是能充当谓语的动词。从语义的角度看，这句话是在说明

教育的作用，即它为我们提供机遇。所以，只需从provides和offers两项中选择即可。从词语的 搭配来看，我们通常说 offer sS. sth.（或 offer sth. to sS.）和 provide sb. with sth（或 provide sth. for sb.），所以，这里应该选择provides%

27. G）。 详解从语法的角度看，不定式后面要求接动词原形。从语义衔接的角度看，Women’s

participation at teacherr it an important part of history，too.这句中出现的 participation —词暗 示了空缺的是和它相对应的动词，即participate%

28. C）。 详解 从语法的角度看，这里缺少的是表示程度的副词。因此，只需从completely和mainly二

者中选择即可。从作者叙述的态度看出，他的语气是不绝对的，带有揣测的意味（这点也可从 usually这个频度副词中看出）;并且从后文 schools still focused mainly on educating boys 这句 看，这里应选择后者。

29. M）。 详解 从语法的角度看,这里缺少的是形容词。因此，只需从是形容词的选项中选择即可。而

从下文的not a strict school master可推测出，这里应该选择strict%

30. O）。 详解从语义衔接的角度看,even—词后面的内容比前面提到的内容在意思上更进一步;而前

面说女老师年轻（young woman）。因此，这里应选择teenagers。

31. E）。 详解从句法的角度看，这里缺少的是能充当谓语的动词。从语义的角度看，该词要和sspport

之意相关;再从下面的not a strict school master可以看出家长们的态度，即教师对待他们的孩子 应是循循善诱的，而不是严厉苛刻的。因此，这里应选择nurture （培养，教养）。

32. N）。 详解从句法的角度看此处缺少一个形容词。从语境来看，文章先是说people wanted a

teacher who wouM nurture and support theis children，not a strict school master. 后面又提到 By the 1850s nearly all deacherr were women，especially in the elementary schools.由此可见， 家长认为女性更适合从事教学工作，N） ssited意为“合适的‘‘，符合文意。

33. A）。详解 从和上文In Colonial limes，school was mainly for boys意义上的衔接来看，这里说明

的是上学的女孩子仍然很少。因此，选择attended （attend school，上学）。

34. K）。 详解从语义的角度看，这里要说明的是哪种类型的教育是免费的。显然，只有public

education是免费的。

35. I）。 详解 从句法的角度看，这里缺少的是能与名词teaching起同位作用的名词。选项中符合这

一要求的只有profession （职业,行业）一词。
