PASSAGE ONE [br] Why does the author call the gorilla "a paradox" (Para. 1) ?
选项
答案
Because we seem to know it well, while we don’t.
解析
本题考查对语义的理解和对文章主旨的把握。根据题干定位至第一、二、六段。首先paradox的本义是指自相矛盾的人或事物。作者在第一段中提到,人们自认为很了解大猩猩,然而第二段笔锋一转,举例论证事实上人们对大猩猩知之甚少;此外,作者在第六段中提到,人们自以为大猩猩是野蛮、残暴、好战的,事实上它是一种温和、善良的动物。这些都说明人们并不真正了解大猩猩,对它的认识是有限的、自相矛盾的。因此,作者在这里并不是说大猩猩本身是一种自相矛盾的事物,而是说人们对其存在着矛盾的看法,即我们看似很了解它,然而却并非如此,故答案为"Because we seem to know it well,while we don’t.”。
