ǔ)篇解讀：這篇文章圍繞在學(xué)校進(jìn)行忠誠(chéng)宣誓這一事情展開的。作者對(duì)這件事非常虔誠(chéng)，因?yàn)檫@表達(dá)了她對(duì)已過世的祖父的思念，而周圍其他學(xué)生卻很不理解，讓作者為此苦惱。通過解釋，作者也對(duì)宣誓有了更正確的理解。4.解析：選A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的內(nèi)容可知，其他學(xué)生逐漸不再進(jìn)行宣誓。故選A項(xiàng)。5.解析：選C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的“ThereIcouldn’tseetheflagandfeltguiltytobehidinglikethat.”可知，作者對(duì)自己躲起來(lái)進(jìn)行宣誓有種罪惡感。因此選C項(xiàng)。6.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第七段中作者回答其他同學(xué)的疑問時(shí)提到“‘MygrandpafoughtinWorldWarⅡandhediedlastyear.’Isaid.‘I’mdoingitforhim.’”可知，她進(jìn)行宣誓是紀(jì)念自己過世的祖父。因此選D項(xiàng)。7.解析：選D標(biāo)題歸納題。文章主要圍繞在學(xué)校行忠誠(chéng)宣誓這一事情展開的。文章第一段最后一句“Wewillbeginwiththepledge（誓言）ofloyalty”也可作為提示。因此選D項(xiàng)。語(yǔ)篇解讀：這篇文章主要介紹了醫(yī)院使用的名叫MEDi的機(jī)器人，它能夠減輕孩子在看病時(shí)的痛苦，縮短檢查的時(shí)間。8.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“helpmakedoctors’visitslesspainful”和第二段的“TheMEDi’spurposeistohelpchildrencopewithpainandreducetheirstress.”可知，機(jī)器人主要用來(lái)減輕孩子在看病時(shí)的痛苦。因此選D。9.解析：選B詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段“TheMEDi’spurposeistohelpchildrencopewithpainandreducetheirstress.”可以猜測(cè)出，這里的relieve與reduce同義，表示“減少”。因此選B項(xiàng)。10.解析：選C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的“...andareequippedwithfacialrecognitioncapabilities（能力）.”可知，機(jī)器人有識(shí)別人臉的能力。因此選C項(xiàng)。11.解析：選B文章出處題。文章主要介紹了醫(yī)院使用的名叫MEDi的機(jī)器人，很可能選自科學(xué)雜志。因此選B項(xiàng)。語(yǔ)篇解讀：這篇文章由Harrison的案件引出了對(duì)一種心理現(xiàn)象的討論，即人們的有些想法自己認(rèn)為是原創(chuàng)；而實(shí)際上是借用別人的，這種現(xiàn)象在創(chuàng)作工作中更為普遍。12.解析：選B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段可知GeorgeHarrison創(chuàng)作的曲子和Chiffons相同，被判抄襲罪。因此選B項(xiàng)。13.解析：選A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第二段的實(shí)驗(yàn)可以看出人們無(wú)意剽竊的現(xiàn)象是經(jīng)常發(fā)生的。因此選A項(xiàng)。14.解析：選B細(xì)節(jié)理
