答案解析

Passage Three
Albert Schweitzer was born in 1875 in Alsace. At that time, it was a part of Germany. [32]His generous spirit was first awakened through his training as a preacher. Besides gaining a reputation as a preacher, [33]he also became respected for his ability to play the organ. [35]He was a man of many talents. His concern for other people turned his attention to medicine. He had also acquired doctoral degrees in philosophy and music. His wife took an interest in medicine also and became a nurse. Many people thought that he should remain and lecture in Europe to have a strong impact on Western civilization. Though he listened to their suggestions, he ultimately decided to follow his own conscience. This led him to Africa. [34]Albert had felt that all men should accept the responsibility of helping others. He felt particularly concerned for black Africans who had been exploited by white men. He earned the money he needed by performing on the organ and by lecturing. With this money he bought equipment and opened a hospital in Africa. He was a man of great strength who faced great problems with courage. The treat of war, the reality of imprisonment during World War One as a German citizen and the unbearable heat in Africa did not make him retreat at all. He believed that a man could overcome these obstacles if he had a sense of idealism. He died in 1965.

Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. How was Albert's generous spirit awakened?
正确答案:B
解析:本题为细节题,B正确。依据短文听力“听到什么选什么”的解题原则。
33. What was he respected for?
正确答案:A
解析:本题为细节题,答案为A“他弹奏风琴的能力”。本题也是“听到什么选什么”。
34. According to Albert, what should all men accept?
正确答案:C
解析:细节题。C项是对原文中的the responsibility of helping others的同义表达,故选C。
35. What is true of Albert?
正确答案:D
解析:细节题。of many talents意为talented,故D正确。C项Respectful意为“有礼貌的,恭敬地”,不正确,若是换成Respected“受尊敬的”则正确。
