What's the general topic of the passage?
【解题思路】
1.两项由疑问词how引导,两项为以the开头的名词短语。
2.四项均提及exams,但相互之间关联度不高。
3.两项提及ages。
结论:本题可能考查对短文主旨或句群意思的概括,涉及考试与时代的关系。
【解析】题干问全篇主要讨论的话题是什么,需综合概括全文意思。短文首先指出,在现代工业产生以前,如古希腊和中世纪,考试的形式多为口试,但随着现代工业产生,笔试取代口试逐渐成为广泛应用的考试类型,学生在一间屋子里答题,老师监考并且精确计时,师生都好像机器一样。笔试中比较有代表性的一种题型是客观题,旨在考查学生对客观事实的认识,而不是其主观观点。可见,短文主要讨论的是考试形式的沿革,故选B。
