Question

【题目】 My guide Farah, a tall, slim woman in her late 30s，wears jeans and a simple manteaux -- the required robe women must wear in public, covering neck to knee. Her long, straight black hair is hidden beneath her headscarf, but visible as it curls at her neck.

We’re heading to Tajrish Bazaar, in north Tehran (capital of Iran)，to explore 10 different kinds of dried plums, and other goodies. We choose the Metro—Farah for its convenience, and I，for a chance to go underground in Tehran, because it provides a picture of the city most tourists never see.

It's mid-morning. Women and men sit separately, but the rule relaxes during busy times, like now. We, along with a few other women, clasp our hands around a pole, standing next to men, young and old in the air-conditioned, modern carriage. Two stops later, and about 20 commuters fewer, segregation happens naturally -- women at one end, men at the other, still within view, but separate.

A handful of fashionable girls admire their own reflections in the window. They wear tight leggings under their brightly coloured robes, pushing back headscarves and boundaries. We find seats next to a group of conservative women dressed in black cloaks called chador. They’re nothing like the other women I have met, a sisterhood of outspoken opinions, most of them liberal. “We are a nation with one language,” Farah says, “divided in two—-traditional and modern. ” Farah tells me it all began, not with imports from the West, but with the 1979 revolution. A combination of access, education and a bad economy created a society where women now have independence, careers and husbands happy to help around the house with chores and children*

【4】A

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。记叙了作者在伊朗首都德黑兰北部的Tajrish市场关于伊朗女性和男性之间的种族隔绝的所见所闻。

【1】细节理解题。根据第三段第一句It's mid-morning. Women and men sit separately, but the rule relaxes during busy times, like now.（这是上午。女性和男性分开坐，但在像现在这样的繁忙时间，这条规则会放松下来。）可知作者大概上午10点动身去Tajrish市场的。故选C。

【2】细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句We choose the Metro-Farah for its convenience, and I,for a chance to go underground in Tehran, because it provides a picture of the city most tourists never see.（我们选择Metro-Farah是因为它方便，而我选择德黑兰的地铁是因为它提供了一个大多数游客从未见过的城市的图片。）可知作者选择乘坐地铁是因为这给她提供了一个机会去看一个不同于大多数游客所看到的城市。故选D。

【3】词义猜测题。根据下文women at one end, men at the other, still within view, but separate.（一端是女人，另一端是男人，仍然在视线之内，但彼此分开了。）可知男女之间是分开隔绝的，故可推测划线部分单词意思为“隔离；隔绝”。A. isolation隔离；B. disaster灾难；C. departure离开；D. combination结合。故选A。

【4】细节理解题。根据第一段第一句My guide Farah, a tall, slim woman in her late 30s,wears jeans and a simple manteaux-the required robe women must wear in public, covering neck to knee.（我的向导Farah是一位30多岁的高挑苗条女性，她穿着牛仔裤和一件简单的长袍——这是女性在公共场合必须穿的长袍，从脖子到膝盖。）以及最后一段中They wear tight leggings under their brightly coloured robes, pushing back headscarves and boundaries. We find seats next to a group of conservative women dressed in black cloaks called chador.（他们在鲜艳的长袍下穿紧身裤，把头巾和界线往后推。我们在一群穿着黑色长袍的保守派妇女旁边找到了座位，她们的名字叫查多尔。）可知伊朗女性必须在公共场合穿戴长袍。故选A。

词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为

① 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to，be called或that’s to say，such as等。

② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。

③ 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。

④ 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。

⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。

如第三小题，根据下文women at one end, men at the other, still within view, but separate.（一端是女人，另一端是男人，仍然在视线之内，但彼此分开了。）可知男女之间是分开隔绝的，故可推测划线部分单词意思为“隔离；隔绝”。A. isolation隔离；B. disaster灾难；C. departure离开；D. combination结合。故选A。
