8．When asked to list typical English gentlemen，for many，Colin Firth immediately comes to mind．
In his recent film，Kingsman：The Secret Service，the 54-year-old actor appears as elegant and violent super spy Harry Hart．One minute he's calm and polite，and then in the next he's skillfully violent and aggressive．For example，in one scene he says，"Manners maketh a man"，before severely beating up a group of villains（壞人）．Firth brings out the perfect mix of typical British style and humor through this performance．
Firth began appearing on English TV in the early 1990s，but it wasn't until he played Mr Darcy，a charming upper class character from Jane Austen's famous novel"Pride and Prejudice"，that Firth's career really took off．His portrayal（形象）of the perfect fictional gentleman conquered millions of hearts，especially females'．
In many fans and critics'eyes，F(xiàn)irth has British good looks，British charm，and a gift for characters with a British sense of being reserved（矜持）．Movie reviewer Jason O'Bryan described Firth as"always befitting the calm and stiff-upper-lip British gentlemen character"．
However Firth doesn't consider himself the authority on gentlemen．"I don't necessarily approach every challenge like a perfect English gentleman spy．There are many aspects in my personality that are not consistent with someone like Harry Hart，"he said to Dialogue，an English-language show on CCTV News．
But let's just take his words as another gentlemanly quality-modesty．After all，who might expect an Oscar-winning actor over 50years old to learn to fight for his first action movie？
To prepare for Kingsman，F(xiàn)irth trained for three hours every day over six months．He broke a tooth and got bruised everywhere，but took the damage as a symbol of his accomplishments．
In Dialogue，F(xiàn)irth said he had many other sides-he's passionate about literature and literary research．However，to many of his movie fans，he is indeed a gentleman and excellent actor above a11else．

24．The example given in Paragraph 2isA．
A．to describe the character of Harry Hart
B．to introduce one scene of Kingsman
C．to prove Colin Firth a gentleman
D．to compare Colin Firth with Harry Hart
25．When did Firth come to be famous？B
A．In the early 1990s．    
B．After he played Mr Darcy．
C．When he was 54years old．
D．During his childhood．
26．From the text we can inferB．
A．Colin Firth is violent and aggressive
B．Colin Firth has many sides in personality
C．Colin Firth has similar character to Harry Hart
D．Colin Firth has more male fans than females
27．Which of the following might be the best title for the text？A
A．An authority on English gentlemen    
B．A famous actor
C．A charming upper class character 
D．A super spy．

分析 本文主要講述了Firth作為演員的一些成長故事．Firth是《王牌特工》中優(yōu)雅而致命的紳士特工，也是《傲慢與偏見》中矜持而迷人的Darcy先生．很多影迷和電影評論家把他描述為典型的英國紳士的樣子，然而他個(gè)人并不認(rèn)同這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)．但是在影迷的心中他確實(shí)是個(gè)紳士和優(yōu)秀的演員．

解答 24．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞"example"找到文章的第二段，然后根據(jù)第二段的第二句話"One minute he's calm and polite，and then in the next he's skillfully violent and aggressive．"判斷主要是描述Harry Hart的性格的，孤單選A．
25．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第三段的第一句話"Firth began appearing on English TV in the early 1990s，but it wasn't until he played Mr Darcy，a charming upper class character from Jane Austen's famous novel"Pride and Prejudice"，that Firth's career really took off．"可知：早在20世紀(jì)90年代，F(xiàn)irth就已經(jīng)登上了英國的電視熒屏．但是，直到在著名小說改編的電影《傲慢與偏見》中出演Darcy先生后，他才在事業(yè)上步入輝煌．故答案選B．
26．B 推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章最后一段的"In Dialogue，F(xiàn)irth said he had many other sides-he's passionate about literature and literary research．"可知Firth在個(gè)性上有許多不同的方面，故答案選B．
27．A 標(biāo)題判斷題．An authority on English gentlemen 一個(gè)權(quán)威的英國紳士；A famous actor一個(gè)著名的演員；A charming upper class character 一個(gè)有魅力的超級人物；A super spy一名超級間諜．通讀全文，并根據(jù)文章最后一段的第一句話"However，to many of his movie fans，he is indeed a gentleman and excellent actor above all else．"可知在許多影迷的心中他的確是個(gè)紳士和優(yōu)秀的演員．故答案選A．

點(diǎn)評 本文是一篇人物故事類文章．這類文章是記敘文體的一種，主要描寫某人的生平事跡、趣聞軼事、生活背景、個(gè)性特征、成長奮斗歷程等，包含記敘文的時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、人物、事件等要素．其特點(diǎn)是以時(shí)間的先后或事件的發(fā)展為主線，空間或邏輯線索貫穿文章始終，脈絡(luò)清楚，可讀性較強(qiáng)．抓住題干關(guān)鍵詞，采用尋讀的方法查找細(xì)節(jié)描述事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題是人物故事類文章的主要題型，平時(shí)練習(xí)時(shí)需多加注意．

How can you find out what is going on inside a person’s body without opening the patient s body up? Regular X-rays can show a lot. CAT scans can show even more. They can give a complete view of body organs.

What is a CAT scan? CAT stands for a kind of machine. It is a special X-ray machine that gets a 360-degree picture of a small area of a patient’s body.

Doctors use X-rays to study and determine diseases and injuries within the body. X-rays can find a foreign object inside the body or take pictures of some inside organs to be X-rayed.

A CAT scanner，however，uses a group of X-rays to give a cross-sectional (橫截面) view of a specific part of the body. A fine group of X-rays is scanned across the body and around the patient from many different directions. A computer studies the information from each direction and produces a clear cross-sectional picture on a screen. This picture is then photo-graphed for later use. Several cross sections, taken one after another，can give clear “photos” of the entire body or of any body organs. The latest CAT scanners can even give clear pictures of active，moving organs，just as a fast-action camera can “stop the action”，giving clear pictures of what appears unclear to the eye. And because of the 360-degree pictures, CAT scans show clear and complete views of organs in a manner that was once only shown during operation or examination of a dead patient.

Frequent appearance before X-rays can cause skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body. Yet CAT scans actually don’t cause the patient to more radiation than regular X-rays do. CAT scans can also be done without getting something harmful into the patient, so they are less risky than regular X-rays.

CAT scans provide exact, detailed information. They can quickly find such a thing as bleeding inside the brain. They are helping to save lives.

1.The underlined words “a foreign object” in Paragraph 3 most probably refer to .

A. a badly injured part inside the body

B. a new thing that is unknown to the doctor

C. a strange cell that has grown in the body

D. a thing that gets inside the body by chance

2.What is the special use of the latest CAT scanners?

A. It can take pictures of inside organs.

B. It provides clear photos of moving organs.

C. It won’t cause serious skin bums, cancer or other damage to the body.

D. It helps to find out illness inside a person’s body without opening it up.

3.What can we infer from this text?

A. Patients in front of CAT may suffer a bit of radiation,

B. Doctors need no opening-up of the body with CAT scanners.

C. CAT scanners are more expensive than regular X-ray machines.

D. CAT scanners can take photos of either the whole body or a part of it.

4.What can be the best title of this text?

A. The newest medical invention

B. A special X-ray machine to save lives

C. How to avoid the damage from X-rays

D. Advantages and disadvantages of CAT scanners
