【解析】

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。短文介紹了普林斯頓大學(xué)的相關(guān)情況。

1細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段“At the same time, Princeton is distinctive among research universities in its commitment to undergraduate teaching.”可知,與此同時(shí),普林斯頓大學(xué)在研究型大學(xué)中獨(dú)樹一幟,致力于本科生教學(xué)。本科教學(xué)使普林斯頓大學(xué)在研究型大學(xué)中出類拔萃。故選D項(xiàng)。

2細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由Library中的“The library's collections include more than 8 million books and impressive rare books …The library's extensive electronic resources include databases and journals, images and digital maps.”可知,普林斯頓大學(xué)的圖書館的館藏包括800多萬冊(cè)圖書以及令人贊嘆的稀有書籍…….圖書館廣泛的電子資源包括數(shù)據(jù)庫(kù)和期刊、圖像和數(shù)字地圖。所以作為普林斯頓大學(xué)的學(xué)生,他們能享有使用稀有書籍和數(shù)據(jù)庫(kù)的權(quán)利。故選C項(xiàng)。

3推理判斷題。根據(jù)Aid Program中的“Our aid program is designed to encourage all qualified students...Any family, who feels they may need help to pay for a Princeton education is welcome to apply for aid.”可知,普林斯頓大學(xué)的援助計(jì)劃旨在鼓勵(lì)所有符合條件的學(xué)生。任何一個(gè)認(rèn)為需要幫助來支付普林斯頓教育費(fèi)用的家庭都可以申請(qǐng)?jiān)。所以普林斯頓大學(xué)的援助計(jì)劃是為那些符合條件的但沒有能力支付普林斯頓大學(xué)學(xué)費(fèi)的學(xué)生設(shè)置的。故選D項(xiàng)。

The aim of conversation is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as5(annoy) as the continuous noise made by a mosquito (蚊子).
