3.Every year in late April,students at Renmin University of China become the subjects of admiration and jealousy of their peers on other campuses in Beijing.Why?(36)F It has been a unique tradition of Renmin University for a decade.
Having fun is just one dimension of the spring break.Field trips,voluntary work,and social projects are all on students'to-do lists.Experts say the spring break is not just for students to enjoy a few days off,but for them to gain new experiences beyond the campus walls.
Push them out
The traditional Chinese belief of the exploration of knowledge and truth emphasizes"reading 10,000 books and travelling 10,000 miles".(37)E But while Chinese universities have the tradition of spring outings,what's the benefit of making spring break an institution?
Qin Jianguo,from Shenzhen University,thinks the idea of the spring break in some universities in China comes from the intention of pushing students out of the ivory tower to experience more diversity in their lives.He said,"Take traveling for example.A week traveling is a very different experience to a one-or two-day outing.When put out in an unfamiliar context,students are expected to acquire the spirit of teamwork and compromise.(38)D"
Diverse approaches
Many countries have similar vacations in the middle of the semester for students to do things out of their own interest.Taking Japan as an example,instead of partying like their US counterparts,many Japanese students choose to work as interns or engage in study-related projects.

(40)B
Apart from Renmin University,only a few other universities,have a spring break for their students.The concept in China is still far from the culture and norms built around it in the US.

解答 FEDCB
36F根據(jù)文章第二 段Having fun is just one dimension of the spring break.大學(xué)生羨慕的原因是因為在學(xué)期中間有一星期的春假,故選F.
37E根據(jù)文章第三 段reading 10,000 books and travelling 10,000 miles 可知這件諺語暗示了經(jīng)驗和理論一樣重要,故選E.
38D根據(jù)文章第四 段students are expected to acquire the spirit of teamwork and compromise. 可知他們需要學(xué)會合作和妥協(xié)精神,因此他們需要學(xué)會生存和交流技巧,故選D.
39C根據(jù)文章第五 段 She and her teammates interviewed people on the street可知她和她的隊友自愿采訪街道上的人們,因此他們傾向于做自愿者工作,故選C.
40B根據(jù)文章最后一段Apart from Renmin University,only a few other universities,have a spring break for their students. 可知除了人民大學(xué)僅僅有一些其他大學(xué)給學(xué)生放春假,因此這還不是一個趨勢,故選B.
點評 此類題目要結(jié)合上下文所表示的意思來進行判斷是比較容易得出答案的.要搞清楚之間的邏輯關(guān)系.
