Question

17．In the US and Britain，the slogan around colleges was"Save water．Shower with a friend．"Now，Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse．It charges students for the amount of time in a shower．Before entering the bathhouse，students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card．The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on．It pauses when a button is pressed for soap．An integrated circuit （IC） card reader at each tap shows the time．No money，no water．The benefits of the new system
can be seen with the old system which charged 1 yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower．The university used  about 320 tons of water daily under the old system，but only 160 tons now．
     Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided．Some students say it is  uncomfortable，because bathing had become a sort of race．Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower．Some might be embarrassed if their time is UP and they're still covered in soap．They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time．
"It's a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card，"said Ren，a freshman．The University is also considering some student's suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower．Not surprisingly，some are complaining about losing the hour shower．But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense．
     Without the time limit，most students tended to shower for half to an hour in the bathhouse．
     Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes．"In my experience，10-20 minutes is enough，"said Dai Zhihua，a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes．
     A similar system has been installed in other universities．Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September．The bathing fee there is 0.2 yuan per minute．One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower．

分析 本文是一篇說明文，文章主要講的是武漢大學(xué)為增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識而對洗澡采取的一種新措施：洗澡按時計費．學(xué)生們在洗澡前；用現(xiàn)金或?qū)W生身份證來支付想要洗澡時間的費用．學(xué)生對這種新體制的做法觀點是不一樣的．一些學(xué)生認為這樣不舒服，洗澡像比賽一樣．有些學(xué)生抱怨這樣做也有弊端，用身份證不能買到額外的時間來洗澡，應(yīng)該在洗澡完后再付費才合理．但也有學(xué)生認為這樣做法能幫助形成節(jié)約用水的理念．

解答 41-45 ADCBC
41．A    細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段中的"Before entering the bathhouse，students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card．"可知，學(xué)生是在洗澡前付款的．而第三段中的"The University is also considering some student's suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower"可知，只是值得考慮的建議，故選A．
42．D   推理判斷題．縱觀全文可知，文章主要講的是武漢大學(xué)為增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識而對洗澡采取的一種新措施：洗澡按時計費．然后闡述了學(xué)生對學(xué)校這樣舉措的不同觀點，并沒有提及作者對這種做法的觀點和態(tài)度，故選D．
43．C   細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段中的"The university used  about 320 tons of water daily under the old system，but only 160 tons now．"可知，兩個數(shù)字進行比較可知，"one half   一半"C項符合語境，故選C．
44．B    推理判斷題．根據(jù)第一段中的"In the US and Britain，the slogan around colleges was"Save water．Shower with a friend．"Now，Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse．"可知，大學(xué)這些做法都是為了增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識，故選B．
45．C   推理判斷題．縱觀全文可知，文章主要講的是大學(xué)就洗澡問題采取的新舉措．因此應(yīng)該是"校園生活"符合語境，故選C．

點評 解答細節(jié)理解題時，一個常用的方法就是運用定位法，即根據(jù)題干和選項中的關(guān)鍵詞從原文中找到相關(guān)的句子，與選項進行比較從而確定答案；推理判斷題既要求學(xué)生透過文章表面文字信息推測文章隱含意思，又要求學(xué)生對作者的態(tài)度、意圖及文章細節(jié)的發(fā)展作正確的推理判斷，力求從作者的角度去考慮，不要固守自己的看法或觀點．
