4、 distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose, an apple, or an orchid. When our Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000years ago, discovered that certain grasses

Not mentioned 參考答案: Plants and Mankind 1. A. 問題句說“關于植物及其特征的具體知識肯定由來已久這種說法是合乎規律的。”利用“關于植物及其特征的具體知識”作為答案線索短語，于是在

10、文章第一段第2句話中發覺含有該短語的句子。而在接下來的一句中發覺“合乎規律的”這個問題句中的關鍵詞。對比問題句和答案相關句，我們發覺問題句是一個句子，而原文采納了2個句子。比較他們語意上的差異：原文中代詞“This”回指上一句話中的陳述，即指代“關于植物及其特征的具體知識肯定由來已久”。可見原文的說法與問題句的說法全都。所以該題是考察代詞this的指代關系。 2. A. 該題可用常識徑直判斷：人類沒有植物就不能生存這種說法應當是正確的。而第1段雖然沒有徑直地講到植物對于人類而言是極為重要的，但提到植物為人類提供了食物、衣服、工具、藥物等等 生活必需品，植物是食物金字塔的基礎。所以該題是考察考生

11、的語句的總結技能。 3. B. 利用“亞馬遜叢林中的部落”作為答案線索詞，于是在第一段結尾部分找到答案相關句。該句提到現今仍生活在亞馬遜叢林中的部落能識別成百上千種植物及其特征，但在他們的詞匯中還沒有“植物學”這個詞，甚至有可能不承認“植物學”是特地的知識。因此在學校中不可能設該課。 4. B. 利用“工業化”作為答案線索詞，于是在第二段第一句話發覺答案相關句，該句說工業化的程度越高，我們與植物的徑直接觸就越少。 5. B. 利用“botanical knowledge”作為答案線索詞，于是我們在第二段的第2句找到答案相關句。但說人們無意識地獲得了大量植物學知識，由此可以推出這些知識不是從教科

12、書中獲得的。 6. A. 利用“10，000”作為答案線索詞(由于時代通常是用數字表示)，于是在第二段發覺有句子提到當生活在約一萬年前中東地區的人們發覺從某些禾本植物中可以收獲糧食，并且播種后下一個收獲季節還能產出更多的糧食時，就邁開了植物和人類聯系的第1 大步。 7. B. 該題從常識判斷應當是不正確。而在第二段末尾講從約一萬年前開始從事農耕起，人們漸漸地停止采食野果，這是由于萌芽時期的農耕技術還非常落后，人們還不能從中獲得足夠的食物。 2022年職稱英語理工類C級閱讀判斷及答案20 Plants and Mankind Botany(植物學), the study of plants, o
