Question

Signs in Chinese will be set up in public areas such as airports, to benefit Chinese travelers, the Italian Government announced in late February. Now many European countries are expected to follow this example.

Despite the different languages, travel across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas from the two countries. You also needed a calculator because both countries had different money.

Today, with a Schengen Visa issued by any member country, you can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid（有效的）in the other European countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere.

All the countries in the continent are melting into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors, the result is that it is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries. 

1.By saying the underlined sentence “Now many European countries are expected to follow this example”, the writer means that ____.

A．more signs will be set up in Chinese in European countries

B．more and more Europeans have a desire to know more about China

C．more and more Chinese people will go to travel across Europe

D．Chinese is now an important language in Europe

2.Compared to five years ago, traveling in Europe has become easier because ___.

A．you needn’t drive a car

B．you can use a calculator to exchange money

C．a(chǎn)pplying for different visas is much simpler

D．one visa is good enough for traveling in a number of countries

3.It can be inferred from the passage that _____.

A．a(chǎn)n increasing number of Chinese tend to travel to Europe

B．Chinese has become an important language in Europe

C．the Euro is the only money used in the EU now

D．it is always necessary to unite many countries into one

【答案】

1.A

2.D

3.A

【解析】

試題分析：本文敘述漢語已經(jīng)被一些歐洲的許多國家在外出去歐洲旅行，簽署證件時所使用的語言，并且陳述了由于許多國家都參加了歐洲共同體，使在歐洲的旅行非常方便。

1.這是細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Signs in Chinese will be set up in public areas such as airports, to benefit Chinese travelers, the Italian Government announced in late February.故選A。

2.這是細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段可知參加歐洲共同體的國家有一些統(tǒng)一的規(guī)章制度，給在歐洲旅行的人帶來了方便，故選D。

3.這是推理理解題。根據(jù)前面提到的去歐洲旅行用漢語簽約，說明種人去的較多，故選A。

考點：這是一篇社會類文章。

點評：推理理解題主要測試考生理清上下文邏輯關(guān)系的能力，要求考生領(lǐng)悟所讀材料中句子之間的邏輯關(guān)系，并且根據(jù)材料提供的已知信息進行分析、歸納和推理。判斷推理能力對深刻理解一篇文章十分重要，特別是理解作者字里行間的言外之意、作者的觀點、寫作意圖和態(tài)度。命題專家在命制此類試題時通常要求考生對文章或段落進行深層推理和理解，不可能把試題的答案非常直接地暴露于選項中。因此考生應該注意把它與事實細節(jié)題區(qū)別開來，推理引申題必須以事實為依據(jù)，但是得出的結(jié)果又絕對不是事實本身，即不能“就事論事”。
