21、possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations(引文)showing how it was used.This was a huge task, so Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in En

23、 quotations to Murray.Over the next 17 years, he became one of the staff's most valued contributors.But he was also a mystery.In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford.So in 1897, Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself.When he arrived, he found Minor l

30、or and the first Oxford English Dictionary.DBroadmoor Asylum and its patients.【語(yǔ)篇解讀】 本文是一篇記敘文，主要講述了Murray與Minor，特別是Minor為第一本牛津英語(yǔ)大詞典所作的貢獻(xiàn)及他們之間深厚的友誼。1D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章最后一段中的“Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed.”可知A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；由文章第一段中的“In 1879, Oxfor

31、d University in England asked Prof.James Murray to serve as editior.”可知詞典是由英國(guó)人Murray編輯的，而后文提到的美國(guó)人Minor只是個(gè)捐稿人，故B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；C項(xiàng)表示“包括了Murray發(fā)現(xiàn)的所有單詞”，文中未提及本細(xì)節(jié)，故錯(cuò)誤；由文章第一段中“.serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language.”可知D項(xiàng)正確。2C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文章第二段提到“Murray找志愿者而不

32、是Minor幫著找”；第三段提到“Minor joined(參加了)志愿大軍”，故A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；B項(xiàng)文中并未提及；由第三段中的“Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray.”可知C項(xiàng)正確；由第四段中“.he would always decline to visit Oxford.”可知D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。3A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第四段中“When he arrived，he found Minor locked in a book­lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum.”可知本題選A項(xiàng)。由第二段最后一句話可知Broadmoor離Oxford僅50英里，并不遠(yuǎn)，故B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；C項(xiàng)表示“他忙著寫(xiě)一本書(shū)”；D項(xiàng)表示“他不喜歡旅行”，這兩項(xiàng)文中均未提及，故排除。4B推理判斷題。文章只在第二段提到Minor served in the Civil War，故可排除A項(xiàng)；文中并未提及“在Murray的幫助下Minor康復(fù)了”這件事，故C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；由文章第五段可以看出，Murray是到離Oxford不遠(yuǎn)的Broadmoor去拜訪Minor，這是在英國(guó)，而不是去了美國(guó)，故D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；由文章第五段
