16、showed that he had been talking in class. Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means.

22、校做了错事，那就是在课堂乱说话。故选B推理判断。问题：如果一名美国的学生在学校评语中得到了一个“OK”，它的意思是什么？分析原句：Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is OK.句意：泰德几乎得不了很高的成绩在他的学校学习。他得到最好的评语是“OK”。联系下文，因为他的表现不好，所以他经常得到的是“你能做的比这次好。”因此体现当学生在学校成绩中等的时候，评语为OK.故选。词义猜测。句意：但是，事情在中国的学校有很大的不同。父母对孩子有很高的期望。同时结合实际情况，中国的父母对孩子的期望很高。因此划线部分

23、为很高有期望。故选C作者意图。根据最后一句Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.句意：中国的教育太严吗？还是美国的教育不严？可能两者都是真的。从中心句中得出结论，重点在介绍中国与美国的教育上有所不同。故选A【点评】议论文阅读首先要弄清楚作者要证明什么观点，然后用什么样的论据进行怎样的分析，最后得出了什么样的结论，理清了线索，理解文章就不是问题。看题时注意确定关键词，然后在文章中定位，找到与选项一致的内容，就可以轻松的确定答案。4阅读理解 In 1969, hum
