Yours,LiMing參考答案Ⅰ.[主旨大意]本文主要講解并描述了Crayola彩筆的歷史演化過程。1.A細微環節理解題。由第一段“AndthatfirstboxofCrayolacrayonswas…,whichonlycameinblack.”可知最初的彩筆是黑色的。故選A。2.C細微環節理解題。由其次段最終一句可知,Edwin的妻子把“craie”(Frenchforchalk)和“oleaginous”(whichmeansoily)結合起來,為他們獨創的蠟筆起名為Crayola,即oilychalk,意思為:油性粉筆。故選C。3.B細微環節理解題。由第四段“butfrom1900to1902,theychangedtheirfocustoartproductsforhomeandschooluse”可知,Edwin表兄弟在1900—1902年間把重點放在生產家用和學校用的藝術產品方面。故選B。4.C主旨大意題。綜合全文,本文主要講的是Crayola彩筆的歷史演化過程,use運用;produce生產;invent獨創;memorize紀念。故C為最佳選項。Ⅱ.5—9BDACB10—14DDBBC15—19ACABCⅢ.20.But21.happily22.wasproduced23.togo24.hasattended25.the26.in27.years28.bigger29.IfⅣ.30.pronunciation31.secret32.know
