Any discussion of this topic is bound to question the aims of education. Stuffing children's heads full of knowledge is far from being foremost among them. One of the chief aims of education is to equip future citizens with all they require to take their place in adult society. Adult society is made up of men and women, so how can a segregated school possibly offer the right sort of preparation for it? Anyone entering adult society after years of segregation can only be in for a shock.
A coeducational school offers children nothing less than a true version of society in miniature. Boys and girls are given the opportunity to get to know each other and to learn to live together from their earliest years. They are put in a position where they can compare themselves with each other in terms of academic ability, athletic achievement and in many of the extra-curricular activities which are part of school life. What a practical advantage it is (to give just a small example) to be able to put on a school play in which the male parts will be taken by boys and the female parts by girls! What nonsense coeducation makes of the argument that boys are cleverer than girls or vice versa! When segregated, boys and girls are made to feel that they are a race apart. Rivalry between the sexes is fostered. In a coeducational school, everything falls into its proper place.
But perhaps the greatest contribution of coeducation is the healthy attitude to life it encourages. Boys don5t grow up believing that women are mysterious creatures airy goddesses, more like fairy tale book illustrations, than human beings. Girls don^ grow up imagining that men are romantic heroes. Years of living together at school dispel illusions of this kind. There are no goddesses with freckles, pigtails, piercing voices and inky fingers. There are no romantic heroes with knobby knees, dirty fingernails and unkempt hair. The awkward stage of adolescence brings into sharp focus some of the physical and emotional problems involved in growing up. These can more easily be overcome in a coeducational environment. Segregated schools sometimes provide the right conditions for sexual deviation. This is hardly possible under a coeducational system. When the time comes for the pupils to leave school,they are fully prepared to enter society as well-adjusted adults. They have already had years of experience in coping with many of the problems that face men and women.
單選題第1題We can learn from the first paragraph that______.
A.many children prefer to study in segregated schools
B.it is abnormal to go to a coeducational school
C.the author is against segregated schools
D.parents like segregated schools
參考答案：C
答案解析：作者態(tài)度。第一段 “a society which consisted only of members of your own sex;
so many parents in the world choose to impose such abnormal conditions on their children”
有兩個(gè)關(guān)鍵提示，首先說明單一性別社會(huì)不是人們樂見的，然后話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，很多家長(zhǎng)
強(qiáng)迫子女忍受這樣的條件，而該條件是“畸形的（abnormal） ”，因此作者態(tài)度很清
楚，反對(duì)單一性別學(xué)校。
單選題第2題The tone of the author is______.
A.straightforward
B.mild
C.indifferent
D.pessimistic
參考答案：A
答案解析：寫作風(fēng)格。第81題的線索清楚表明，作者寫作是直言不諱的，因此A是正確選項(xiàng)。
單選題第3題According to the text, one major goal of education is to______.
A.let students acquire knowledge
B.equip future citizens with technology
C.equip a future citizen with what is required in getting a position in society
D.let students score academic achievements
參考答案：C
答案解析：細(xì)節(jié)識(shí)別。第二段 “One of the chief aims of education is to equip future citizens with
all they require to take their place in adult society ” 清楚說明了教育的主要目標(biāo)，本句 all
they require 對(duì)應(yīng)選項(xiàng) C 的 what is required; take their place 對(duì)應(yīng) getting a position，因此
可以準(zhǔn)確判斷正確選項(xiàng)為C。
單選題第4題Students from a segregated school may find it______to enter society.
A.interesting
B.shocking
C.easy
D.acceptable
參考答案：B
答案解析：邏輯推理。根據(jù)第二段最后一句 “Anyone entering adult society after years of
segregation can only be in for a shock”可知，既然一般隔離造成的結(jié)果是任何人進(jìn)入社
會(huì)后都會(huì)受到?jīng)_擊（shock），那么隔離學(xué)校畢業(yè)的學(xué)生當(dāng)然也不會(huì)例外。
單選題第5題What can coeducation provide to children?
A.Skills about getting on well with each other.
B.A true model of the real society.
C.Areal life.
D.A true picture of social conditions.
參考答案：B
答案解析：細(xì)節(jié)識(shí)別。根據(jù)第三段第一句 “ A coeducational school offers children nothing less
than a true version of society in miniature”可知，男女合校給孩子們提供的恰恰是真正社
會(huì)的縮影。本句的version與選項(xiàng)B的model是近義詞，故選B。
單選題第6題Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a benefit of coeducation?
A.Learning from each other.
B.Acquiring a better understanding of each other.
C.Playing due roles in performance.
D.Teaching each other academically.
參考答案：D
答案解析：錯(cuò)誤排除。題干的關(guān)鍵詞是benefit of coeducation，所以需要從原文找到相應(yīng)表
述。第三段第二句 “Boys and girls are given the opportunity to get to know each other and
to learn to live together ... the male parts will be taken by boys and the female parts by girls”
開始講述男女合校的好處，只有選項(xiàng)D沒有提到，故可以排除。
單選題第7題The word "rivalry" underlined in Paragraph 3 means______
A.friendliness
B.hatred
C.partnership
D.competition
參考答案：D
答案解析：詞義界定。假設(shè)rivalry對(duì)部分讀者是生詞，本題也有兩種方法界定詞義。第一
種根據(jù)構(gòu)詞，rivalry=rival+ry構(gòu)成，rival更常見，其意為是“競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，對(duì)手”，加上后
綴-ry變成了名詞“競(jìng)爭(zhēng)”，與選項(xiàng)D契合。第二種方法是根據(jù)語境猜詞。根據(jù)“What
nonsense coeducation makes of the argument that boys are cleverer than girls or vice versa!
When segregated, boys and girls are made to feel that they are a race apart. Rivalry between
the sexes is fostered”可知，有觀點(diǎn)認(rèn)為男孩子比女孩子聰明，或女孩子比男孩子聰
明，所以不宜合校，這完全是胡說八道。當(dāng)男女分校后，孩子們覺得彼此非我族類，
從而滋生了性別間的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。這樣看來，至少不是友好合作關(guān)系，即排除了選項(xiàng)A和
C;但也不至于造成性別仇恨（選項(xiàng)B）,于是大致猜得其意為D。
單選題第8題Why do boys and girls in coeducational schools have no illusions about each other?
A.They live together and know each other well.
B.Years of living together at school dismiss such illusions.
C.Coeducation encourages them to show a healthy attitude toward life.
D.They are familiar with each other's weaknesses.
參考答案：B
答案解析：細(xì)節(jié)識(shí)別。根據(jù)最后一段 “Years of living together at school dispel illusions of this
kind”可知，是在學(xué)校一起生活多年消除了這種錯(cuò)覺，故選B。
單選題第9題The word "unkempt"underlined in the last paragraph refers to______hair.
A.long
B.dirty
C.untidy
D.greasy
參考答案：C
答案解析：詞義界定。同樣有兩種辦法得知詞義。第一種依然是構(gòu)詞規(guī)律：unkempt=un+kempt，kempt本義為“梳理過的，整潔的”，加上否定意義的前綴
un-,意為“亂蓬蓬的，不整潔的”。第二種還是需要依賴語境推導(dǎo)。根據(jù)“There are
no romantic heroes with knobby knees, dirty fingernails and unkempt hair” 可知，一般人想
象中，男生的頭發(fā)可能是臟兮兮的（選項(xiàng)B），可能是不整潔的（選項(xiàng)C）,甚至是
油膩膩的（選項(xiàng)D）。但是本句重要的語義限定為romantic heroes,既然是浪漫英雄，
自然不宜骯臟油膩，故可以確定答案為C。
單選題第10題It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A.only coeducation can bring harmony to society
B.people begin to realize the importance of coeducation
C.coeducation is superior to segregated education
D.coeducation has many features
參考答案：C
答案解析：語義推理。這類題可通過總結(jié)和推導(dǎo)（infer）各段內(nèi)容得知答案。第一、二段重
點(diǎn)強(qiáng)調(diào)男女分校的不合理原因和不利結(jié)果；第三、四段側(cè)重男女合校的各種好處，中
間還穿插了分校、合校的利弊得失。由此判斷，本文作者認(rèn)為男女合校優(yōu)于分校，即
選項(xiàng)C。
