【要点综述】 本文通过对Bill Bryson和Jeremy Paxman两人迥然不同的观点的陈述来阐明作者对英国人以天气为寒暄内容的见解。
72.D 逻辑推断题。通过引用名人名言来说明英国人以天气为寒暄内容的现象很普遍。
73.B 词义推断题。Bill Bryson认为英国天气单一(there is not very much of it)不足以引起人们的情感响应,因此该词此处指的是 “情感状态”。
74.D 细节理解题。倒数第二段中有“The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.”(意思是:人们对英国气候的关注点不是气候本身,而是气候的不确定性。)由此可知答案。
