1.[C]事實細節題。原文第4段，特別是第4段的最后一句表明c為正確選

項。本題稍具干擾性的是D,該選項中的live一詞在第4段第2句末尾也有出現，

但事實上D與該句的意思不相同。

2.[A]事實細節題。本題考查對比處。第5段第1句表明下一句就是演講和

寫作的相似之處，而A就是對該句的同義替換。其他選項并未按照題目的要求對

比演講與寫作，只是說明了寫作必須做的，因此都不正確。

3.[A]推理判斷題。本題考查對比處。結尾段對比了演講和寫作的不同之處,

第1、2句和第3、4句形成了內在的對比關系，由此可推斷寫作比演講更需要經

驗和努力，因此可確定A正確，而C不正確。雖然在這一段可找到effort和

naturally等詞，但原文并沒有從是否要付出同樣多的努力(B)或是否自然(D)等

方面對比演講與寫作，因此B和D也不正確。

4.[D]推理判斷題。根據最后一句中的“在紙上說話”，可推斷作者認為寫

作如在紙上作演講一樣，因此D正確。A中的Fewstudents與事實不符;B中的

speakwithascript在文中未有提及；C中的separatedbyabarrier錯誤。

5.[D]主旨大意題。
