Question

Andy is the most unreasonable, pigheaded life form in the world, and he makes me so angry I could scream! Of course, I love him like a brother. I have to because he is my brother. More than that, he is my twin! That’s right. Andy and Amy(that’s me) have the same curly(卷曲的) hair and dark eyes and equally stubborn character. Yet, though we may look alike, on most issues(事情)  we usually take completely opposite positions. If I say day, you can count on Andy to say night.
Just this week, the hot topic in school was all about the PTA’S proposal(提议) to adopt a school dress principle. Every student would be required to wear a uniform. Uniforms! Can you imagine? Oh, they would be uniforms in color. The dress style would be sort of loose and free.
I think a dress principle is a good idea. The reason is simple. School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day. The fact is, the less I have to decide first thing in the morning, the better. I also wouldn’t mind not having to see guys wearing oversized jeans and shirts. And I certainly would welcome not seeing kids showing off designer clothes.
Andy is surprised at my opinion. He says he can’t believe that I would be willing to give up my all-American teenage birthright by dressing like — well, like a typical teenager. Last night, he even dragged out Mom and Dad’s high school photo albums. What a couple of peace-loving hippies(嬉皮士) they were!
The vote for or against uniforms took place later that day. The results of the vote and the headmaster’s decision will be announced next week. I wonder what it will be. I know how I voted, and I’m pretty sure I know how Andy voted.
How would you vote—for or against?

Answer 1

BACD
试题分析：文章讲述了一对孪生兄妹，他们之间在很多事情上意见不一致，总是发生冲突。就最近学校的一个热门话题来说，学校要为学生定制校服，我认为，学校定制校服是很好的事情，学生不应该穿奇装异服，而他则认为，这样不好，学生每个人都要穿着有个性。
1.B综合理解题。本文讲述了这对孪生兄妹在很多事情上意见不一，同时用学校买校服这一具体事情为例。a school policy decision that will affect parents and students本句的意思是：影响父母和学生的一项学校政策，由文意可知是错误的；a historical event and is told in the third person意思为：一件历史事件，是以第三人称叙述的，也是错误的；a conflict of opinions between boys and girls句意为：男生和女生之间观点上的冲突。本文只是说明孪生兄妹在一些事情上的观点不同，不能扩大范围，故也是错误的，所以答案为B，意思是个人的经历是以第一人称讲述的。
2.A细节理解题。I think a dress principle is a good idea. The reason is simple. School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day. 本句的意思是：我认为，校服是一个很好的产意，学校的学习是很紧张的，不要去担忧每一天看起来是不是很酷。另外，第三自然段的大意是我不喜欢看到学生穿着很肥胖的那种牛仔裤还衬衫，还有那些名牌服装，所以答案应为A，Amy’的立场是基于自己的观察和个人的经历而得出的符合逻辑的结论。
3.C段落大意题。Andy is surprised at my opinion. He says he can’t believe that I would be willing to give up my all-American teenage birthright by dressing like — well, like a typical teenager. Last night, he even dragged out Mom and Dad’s high school photo albums. What a couple of peace-loving hippies(嬉皮士) they were!大意为：Andy对我的观点很吃惊，他说，他相信，我不会乐意放弃所有青少年追求美丽的这种与生俱来的权利的，他拿出爸爸妈妈在高中的相册来证明他的观点是正确的。故答案应为C，How one dresses should be an expression of one’s individuality.一个人的穿着应该是他个人的展示。
4.D文意概括题。文章讲述了针对学校的校服这对孪生兄妹而进行的争论，校服到底是好还是坏，观点不一样，所以答案应为D，支持还是反对？---这还是一个问题。A意为：学校校服的规定；B为我固执的孪生兄弟；C为我和弟弟无休止的战争，从文章的整体看这三个选项属于同一类型的错误，即片面性。
考点:日常生活类文章的阅读理解。
