第3题：
186. Do you sometimes argue about what seems to you to be simple fact? Do you argue whether it’s cold outdoors or whether the car in front of you is going faster than the speed limit? If you get into such arguments, try to think about the story about the six blind men and the elephant. The first blind man who felt the elephant’s trunk said it was like a snake. The second who felt the elephant’s side said it was like a wall, while the third said it was like a spear as he touched the animal’s tusk. The fourth, who had hold of the elephant’s tail insisted that it was like a rope. The fifth man said it looked like a tree as he put his arms around one of the elephant’s legs. The sixth, who was tall and got hold of the elephant’s ears, said it was like a huge fan. Each man’s idea of the animal came from his own experience. So if someone disagrees with you about a “simple fact”, it’s often because his experience in the matter is different from yours. To see how hard it is for even one person to make up his mind about a “simple fact”, try this simple experiment. Get three large bowls. Put ice water in one. Put hot water in the second. Put lukewarm water in the third. Now put your left hand in the ice water. Put your right hand in the hot water. After thirty seconds, put both hands in the lukewarm water. Your right hand will tell you the water is cold. You left hand will tell you it’s hot! [共5题]

本题考查事实细节。文章首句提到，这篇小说中真正的女英雄离所叙述的内容有一段距离。因此文章一开始就埋下了伏笔。接下来文章介绍了小说的主人公及大概情节。到了第四段末，文章指出，读者对所有人物的看法突然都发生了改变。玛侬对莎拉的怀疑都是有根据的，而且玛侬还赢得了读者对她个性的由衷的钦佩。由此可见，玛侬是文章一开始提到的“真正的女英雄”。［B］正确。玛侬的丈夫在第一段中是“仗势欺人的人”，但到了第四段则“表现出令人钦佩的坚强和勇气”，因此［A］不正确。［C］无从推知。由第一段末可知，沃特是男主人和莎拉的私生子，［D］错在prostitution。
