答案 D
解析 细节理解题。由文章最后一段第一句可知A项错误;由文章第一段中的“In 1879,Oxford University in England asked Prof.James Murray to serve as editor...”可知词典是由英国人Murray编辑的,而后文提到的美国人Minor只是个捐稿人,故B项错误;C项表示“包括了Murray发明的所有单词”,文中未提及本细节,故错误;由文章第一段中“...serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language.”可知D项正确。
6.How did Dr.Minor contribute to the dictionary?
A.He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.
B.He sent newspapers,magazines and books to Murray.
C.He provided a great number of words and quotations.
D.He went to England to work with Murray.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。文章第二段提到Murray找志愿者而不是Minor帮着找,故A项错误;B项文中并未提及;由第三段中的“Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray.”可知C项正确;由第四段中“...he would always decline to visit Oxford.”可知D项错误。
7.Why did Dr.Minor refuse to visit Oxford?
A.He was shut in an asylum.
B.He lived far from Oxford.
