The first sentence in Paragraph 1 is used by American school children because
In which case will mother be serving "noodles"?
选项
A、The new planet is named after noodles.
B、The new object is not counted as a planet.
C、Both Pluto and the new object are not counted as planet.
D、Both Pluto and the new object are counted as planet.
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。本题比较难,需要结合常识及英文基本词汇积累来解题。根据题干内容定位至末段。该段内容简洁,指出:时间会告诉我们妈妈提供的是九把精致木琴;九张比萨饼;还是仅仅是面条。由这部分内容本身无法直接推断,需要浏览全文寻找答案。与此话有关的是文章开篇的第一句话:"My very educated mother just served us nine pizzas",接着第二句说许多美国学生都通过这句话来记住太阳系中各行星的顺序,可见这句话中隐含着九大行星的顺序。实际本句话是一个藏头谜,即句中每一个单词的首字母与九大行星的首字母是一样的,这九个单词代表了九大行星,且出现的顺序与九大行星距离太阳的远近顺序一致,它们分别是:Mercury(水星);Venus(金星),Earth(地球),Mars(火星),Jupiter(木星),Saturn(土星),Uranus(天王星),Neptune(海王星),Pluto(冥王星)。接着再来看本题,本题问妈妈只提供 noodles时意味着什么,很显然,那就是将文章开篇第一句改成八个单词,去掉了以P开头的单词,即:冥王星也不再被视为是行星,由此可知,新发现的天体同样也不会被归为是行星。"新的行星将根据面条来命名"显然不合理,可排除;"新天体不被视为是行星"是最后一段中提到妈妈仍提供"nine pizzas"的情形,即仍然确认冥王星为行星,而新的星体不是行星;"冥王星和新的星体都被认为是行星"是指妈妈提供nine polished xylophones的情形,也即行星中多了一个名字以X开头的行星,这里X只代表该新的行星还未被命名。注意这几个词不应按字面意思理解,句中用polished或pizzas没有区别,都仅代表以字母P开头的单词Pluto(冥王星)。
