问题 单项选择题

虽然黑猩猩和人类的进化史大约有99.5%是共同的,但大多数思想家把黑猩猩视为与人类毫不相于的怪物,而把自己看成是万物之主。对一个进化论者来说,情况绝非如此。认为某一物种比另一物种高尚是毫无客观依据的。不论是黑猩猩和人类,还是蜥蝎和真菌,都是经过长达30亿年的所谓自然选择这一过程进化而来的。
这段文字意在阐明( )。

A.大多数思想家并不理解进化论的思想
B.真正的思想家应对所有物种一视同仁
C.所有物种事实上都是自然选择的结果
D.黑猩猩与人类的进化史实际极为相似

答案

参考答案:B

解析: 文段首先提出了思想家普遍存在的问题.即将黑猩猩视为怪物,接着引出自己不同于上述的观点,也就是本文的主题句“对一个进化论者来说,情况绝非如此。认为某一物种比另一物种高尚是毫无客观依据的”,最后一句是用来解释说明主题句的原因何在,因为一切物种都是自然选择进化而来,言外之意就是说要对所有物种一视同仁,因此正确答案为B项。
C项只提到了原因,并没有言及主题要点。A、D两项显然不是作者阐明的意图所在。

     Everyone has got two personalities (性格) -the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret

and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but

when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change

your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go

to sleep.

     If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily

influenced by new ideas. You don't like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings.

You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.

     If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're

always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the

way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.

     If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of

yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't

usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.

     If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your

strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel

worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.
