第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
There’s a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble In The World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too––– that’s why it made Nov 16th “International Day for Tolerance”.
But first of all, what is tolerance? According to French philosopher Voltaire, tolerance is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each other’s fool––– that is the first law of nature.”
Very often, people don’t realize that they’re intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UN’s campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don’t put themselves in the shoes of women.
It’s worth thinking a little about the words “tolerance” and “intolerance”. Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we’re speaking here? To agree to be “tolerant” of someone isn’t necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there’s something wrong with them.
Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That’s the reason we should be tolerant. It’s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.
1、What’s the purpose of the UN “International Day For Tolerance”?
A．To arouse people’s awareness of tolerance among people.
B．To celebrate the founding of the UN.
C．To solve the problem of global warming.
D．To change peopled opinion towards globalization.
2、Why do men behave intolerantly towards women?
A．Because men don’t realize the purpose of the UN.
B．Because men are physically stronger than women.
C．Because men don’t appreciate the shoes of women.
D．Because men are not willing to understand women.
3、Why is it meaningless to use the words “tolerance” and “intolerance”?
A．Because they are hard to pronounce in English.
B．Because they don’t express the exact meaning people refer to.
C．Because they can’t be translated into other languages.
D．Because they can’t be used in a respectful way.
4、In what sense is “tolerance” similar to “generosity”?
A．Humans are advised to treat others better.
B．Humans leant to find faults in others.
C．Humans need to give something to others.
D．Humans will change their attitudes to others.
