文章大意：本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。分析了英國(guó)國(guó)旗theUnionJack的起源和使用場(chǎng)合。

21.ThereasonwhythenationalflagoftheUnitedKingdomiscalledtheUnion

JackisthatB.

A.theflagismadeofjacket

B.theflagcombinestheemblemsofthreecountries

C.theflagshowsthesymbolofunity

D.theflagoriginatedfromtheexistenceoftheUnitedKingdom

解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第一段說(shuō)到theUnionJack是三個(gè)國(guó)家象征的徽記集合。

22.ThesecondparagraphmainlytalksaboutA.

A.theoriginofthenationalflag

B.thehistoryofthenationalflag

C.thereasonwhytheUnionJackhasbecomethenationalflag

D.thewayhowtheUnionJackhasbecomethenationalflag

23.Whatisthebesttitleofthepassage?C

A.TheUnionJackEverywhere

B.TheUnionJackAnytime

C.NationalFlag,theUnionJack

D.TheHistoryoftheUnionJack

解析：標(biāo)題判斷題。A、B、D三項(xiàng)文章均有說(shuō)到，但屬于以偏概全，C項(xiàng)概括了文章的

內(nèi)容。故選C。

B

文章大意：本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。從地理狀況、人口發(fā)展、經(jīng)濟(jì)情況以及社會(huì)生活等方面

介紹了愛(ài)爾蘭，讓我們對(duì)這個(gè)美麗的國(guó)家有了更進(jìn)一步的了解。

24.WhatdoestheauthortellusinParagraph1?D

A.HowtheIrishfoughtagainsttheEnglish.

B.HowIrelandgainedindependence.

C.HowEnglishrulerstriedtoconquerIreland.

D.Howtwo“Irelands”cameintobeing.

解析：主旨大意題。本段的后半部分?jǐn)⑹龅氖亲罱K結(jié)果，所以第一段作者意在闡述兩個(gè)

“愛(ài)爾蘭”是如何形成的。

25.WelearnfromthetextthatinIrelandA.

A.foodshortagesinthe1840sledtoadeclineinpopulation

B.peoplearemovingtothecitiesforlackofworkinthecountryside

C.itishardertomakealivingasafarmerthanasafactoryworker

D.differentkindsofoldIrishsongsareallsungwithinstruments

解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第二段提到在19世紀(jì)40年代，由于土豆被疾病感染，大約75萬(wàn)

人死于饑餓，由此可知這一時(shí)期的食物短缺導(dǎo)致了人口下降。本段最后一句話也是線索提示。

26.ThelastparagraphismainlyaboutB.

A.theIrishcharacter

B.Irishculture

C.Irishmusicalinstruments

D.afamousIrishwriter

解析：主旨大意題。通讀本段內(nèi)容尤其是根據(jù)本段中間部分的“Sinceindependence,

Irelandhasrevived（復(fù)興）itsowncultureof.?.”可知，本段主要闡述的是愛(ài)爾蘭文

化。其余選項(xiàng)都不具有概括性。

27.Whatcanbethebesttitleforthetext?C

A.LifeinIreland

B.AVeryDifficultHistory

C.Ireland,PastandPresent

D.TheIndependenceofIreland

解析：標(biāo)題判斷題。文章回顧了愛(ài)爾蘭艱辛的獨(dú)立過(guò)程以及曾經(jīng)的艱難歲月，接著概述

了愛(ài)爾蘭如今的風(fēng)貌，所以“愛(ài)爾蘭往昔”作文章標(biāo)題最合適。

解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的"Theonlytrulyeccentricdresser...anyone

可知，在穿衣方面真正奇特的是女王，女王對(duì)時(shí)尚毫不在意，繼續(xù)穿著她喜歡的衣服，不考

慮別人的意見(jiàn)。故選C。

30.Whichofthefollowingcanbestdescribethegoths?B

解析：標(biāo)題判斷題。文章主要介紹了英國(guó)各類人穿衣的特點(diǎn)，其共性和個(gè)性。A項(xiàng)“英

國(guó)人如何穿著”最適合作文章的標(biāo)題。
