问题 Paper is one of the most important products ever invented by man. Wide spread use of written language would not have been possible without some cheap and practical material to write on. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed and distributed. Together with the printing press, paper provided an extremely important way to communicate knowledge.
How much paper do you use every year? Probably you cannot answer that question quickly. In 1990 the world’s use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year. Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper than other countries.
Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant. Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of year. Parchment was very strong; it was made from the skin of certain young animals. We have learnt of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment. (208words)

选项 4、Which of the following countries uses more paper for each person a year?
A. China
B. Sweden
C. Egypt
D. Japan

答案B

解析这是一道细节题,本题询问“下列选项中的哪个国家每年人均消费纸张的数量较多?”。本题需要的是有关国家的信息。与上道题一样,我们很容易发现只有在第二段的最后一句话里出现了几个国家的名称,这句话是在美国、英国和瑞典这三个国家之间,作者对其人均消费纸的数量做了比较,因此四个选项中只有瑞典被提及,所以我们确定选择答案B。
