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 3、When did the Egyptians begin to use paper widely?
A. Around 1400
B. Around 1900
C. Around 400
D. Around 900
答案A
解析这是一道细节题，本题询问“什么时候埃及人开始广泛使用纸张？”。本题需要的是有关时间的信息。一般来讲，人名、地名、年代、金钱等信息出现在文章中，很容易被读者关注。我们浏览全文后发现，本篇文章一共出现了两个年代信息，分别是1900和1400。前一个年代的信息是说明“1900年，全世界人均年消费纸张约1公斤。”而后一个年代信息，则是说明“直到1400年，埃及和西方国家才开始广泛使用纸张。”很明显，本题与后一个年代信息有关，因此我们确定选择答案A。
