Bows and arrows are one of man’s oldest weapons. They gave early man an effective weapon to kill his enemies. The ordinary bow and short bow was used by nearly all early people. This bow had limited power and short range. However, man overcame these faults by learning to track his targets at a close range. The long bow was most likely discovered when someone found out that a five-foot piece of wood made a better bow than a three-foot piece. Hundreds of thousands of these bows were made and used for three hundred years. However, not one is known to survive today. We believe that a force of about one hundred pounds needs to pull the string all the way back on a long bow. For a long time the bow was just a bent stick and string. In fact, more changes have taken place in a bow in the past 25 years than in the last 7 centuries. Today, bow is powerful. It is as exact as a gun. In addition, it requires little strength to draw the string. Modern bows also have precise aiming devices. In indoor contests, perfect scores from 40 yards are common. The invention of bows itself ranks with discovery of fire and the wheel. It was a great step forward for man.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. Why did man have to track his target at a close range when using a short bow?
31. What does the passage tell us about the long bow?
32. What do we know about modern bows?

选项 A、They are accurate and easy to pull.
B、Their shooting range is 40 yards.
C、They are usually used indoors.
D、They took 100 years to develop.

答案 A

解析 细节题。浏览选项可知,选项和“they”的特点有关。文中提到现在的弓很有力量,它和枪一样瞄准精确,并且拉弓时不需要费很大的力气,故选项A正确。由在室内测试时,现在的弓一般有40码的射程可知选项B和C两项理解片面,而D说现在的弓经过了100年的发展时间在文中未有提及,故A正确。
