Q1

On leaving school, Moore did what his father wanted him to do.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有leaving school和father。这道题考察“是非考点”，即Moore是否做了他爸想让他做的事。这道题需要注意的是介词on的意思，on一般理解为在某一个点上，其实on 更准确的意思是“从这个点开始的”，所以这里的on leaving school可以翻译为【毕业当时】也可以翻译为毕业以后。

定位

1 Henry Moore was born in Castle ford, a small town near Leeds in the north of England. He was the seventh child of Raymond Moore and his wife Mary Baker. He studied at Castleford Grammar School from 1909 to 1915, where his early interest in art was encouraged by his teacher Alice Gostick. After leaving school, Moore hoped to become a sculptor, but instead he complied with his father’s wish that he train as a schoolteacher. He had to abandon his training in 1917, when he was sent to France to fight in the First World War.

答案

上文倒数第二句出现的after leaving school对应题干中的on leaving school, 这句中的complied with his father’s wish【顺从了父亲的意愿】对应题干中的did what his father wanted him to do，题干与原文内容一致，答案是TRUE。 

Q2

Moore began studying sculpture in his first term at the Leeds School of Art.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有studying sculpture，first term和Leeds School of Art。这道题考察“是非考点”，即Moore是否是从第 一学期开始学的，这里的第 一学期显然是时间，所以原文出题句一定要注意时间相关的内容。

定位

2 After the war, Moore enrolled at the Leeds School of Art, where he studied for two years. In his first year, he spent most of his time drawing. Although he wanted to study sculpture, no teacher was appointed until his second year. At the end of that year, he passed the sculpture examination and was awarded a scholarship to the Royal College of Art in London. In September 1921, he moved to London and began three years of advanced study in sculpture.

答案

上文第 一句出现了定位词Leeds School of Art，上文第二句出现了study sculpture对应题干中的studying sculpture，这句中的no teacher was appointed until his second year与题干中的began…in his first term是矛盾的，因为到了大二才有老师教，所以最早从大二开始学。如果觉得这个证据不充分，那么看最后一句。这句中的began three years of advanced study对应题干中的began studying sculpture，这件事发生的年份是1921年，是大二末发生的事，所以他并没有第 一学期开始学，题干与原文矛盾，答案是FALSE。

Q3

When Moore started at the Royal College of Art, its reputation for teaching sculpture was excellent.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有Royal College of Art和reuptation。这道题考察“是非考点”，即当时这个大学是否雕塑方面很有名气。

定位

2 After the war, Moore enrolled at the Leeds School of Art, where he studied for two years. In his first year, he spent most of his time drawing. Although he wanted to study sculpture, no teacher was appointed until his second year. At the end of that year, he passed the sculpture examination and was awarded a scholarship to the Royal College of Art in London. In September 1921, he moved to London and began three years of advanced study in sculpture.

3 Alongside the instruction he received at the Royal College, Moore visited many of the London museums, particularly the British Museum, which had a wide-ranging collection of ancient sculpture. During these visits, he discovered the power and beauty of ancient Egyptian and African sculpture- As he became increasingly interested in these ‘primitive’forms of art, he turned away from European sculptural traditions.

答案

第2段倒数第二句出现了Royal College of Art，第2段最后一句出现的began three years of advanced study对应题干中的when Moore started，但这句中没有reputation对应的词。

第3段第 一句出现了London museums，是第4题的出题句，所以第3题中的reputation在原文中没有提到，答案是NOT GIVEN。

Q4

Moore became aware of ancient sculpture as a result of visiting London museums.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有ancient sculpture和London museums。这道题考察“是非考点”，即Moore去了博物馆才知道的ancient sculpture。这里的ancient在原文中可能会对应古代的时间段或时间点。 

定位

3 Alongside the instruction he received at the Royal College, Moore visited many of the London museums, particularly the British Museum, which had a wide-ranging collection of ancient sculpture. During these visits, he discovered the power and beauty of ancient Egyptian and African sculpture- As he became increasingly interested in these ‘primitive’forms of art, he turned away from European sculptural traditions.

答案

上文第 一句出现了定位词London museums，和ancient sculpture。这里需要注意，particularly the British Museum【尤其是大英博物馆】是London museums其中之一，不要认为它们是分开的。上文第二句中的he discovered the power and beauty of ancient Egyptian and African sculpture对应题干中的Moore became aware of ancient sculpture，这句中的During these visits对应题干中的as a result of visiting，所以题干与原文内容一致，答案是TRUE。

Q5

The Trocadero Museum’s Mayan sculpture attracted a lot of public interest.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有Trocadero Museum’s Mayan sculpture。这道题考察“是非考点”，即Mayan sculpture有没有吸引大众。

定位

4 After graduating, Moore spent the first six months of 1925 travelling in France. When he visited the Trocadero Museum in Paris, he was impressed by a cast of a Mayan sculpture of the rain spirit. It was a male reclining figure with its knees drawn up together, and its head at a right angle to its body. Moore became fascinated with this stone sculpture, which he thought had a power and originality that no other stone sculpture possessed. He himself started carving a variety of subjects in stone, including depictions of reclining women, mother-and-child groups, and masks. 

答案

上文第二句出现了定位词Trocadero Museum和Mayan sculpture，但这句和下一句都没有跟public interest相关的内容，上文第四句对应第6题，所以文章没有提到跟public interest 相关的内容，答案是NOT GIVEN。

Q6

Moore thought the Mayan sculpture was similar in certain respects to other stone sculptures.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有stone sculptures。这道题考察“比较考点”，即Mayan sculpture和别的sculpture有没有相似的地方，或者像不像。这句里的certain respects【一些方面】需要注意，这里的respects表示的是“方面”，而不是我们之前背的“尊重”的意思。

定位

4 After graduating, Moore spent the first six months of 1925 travelling in France. When he visited the Trocadero Museum in Paris, he was impressed by a cast of a Mayan sculpture of the rain spirit. It was a male reclining figure with its knees drawn up together, and its head at a right angle to its body. Moore became fascinated with this stone sculpture, which he thought had a power and originality that no other stone sculpture possessed. He himself started carving a variety of subjects in stone, including depictions of reclining women, mother-and-child groups, and masks.

答案

上文第四句中出现了this stone sculpture（指的是上上一句中的Mayan sculpture of the rain spirit），这句中出现了定位词other stone sculpture，这句中的had a power and originality that no other stone sculpture possessed【玛雅的这个雕塑拥有别的石像所没有的力量和美】与题干中的was similar in certain respects【某些方面相似】矛盾，所以答案是FALSE。

Q7

The artists who belonged to Unit One wanted to make modern art and architecture more popular.

分析

题干可以划定位词的有artists，Unit One和modern art and architecture。这道题考察“是非考点”，即这些艺术家是否想让modern art and architecture更受欢迎。

定位

5 Moore’s exceptional talent soon gained recognition, and in 1926 he started work as a sculpture instructor at the Royal College. In 1933, he became a member of a group of young artists called Unit One. The aim of the group was to convince the English public of the merits of the emerging international movement in modern art and architecture.

答案

上文第二句出现了artists和Unit One。下一句中的the aim of the group was to对应题干中的wanted to，这句中的convince the English public of the merits of【说服英国大众关于…的好处】对应题干中的make…more popular【让…变得更受欢迎】(如果你觉得这两者不能完美对应，那么看他们的感情色彩，两者都是正面的，而且两者都是跟大众相关的，所以你不能认为它们是NOT GIVEN或FALSE)，题干中的modern art and architecture在原文中原词重现，题目与原文内容一致，所以答案是TRUE。
