1. A 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句句意“虽然历史证据并不支持这一点，但是想想，有那么一个时代，每个人都能用同一种语言进行交流，是很有趣的”可知，this指的是“每个人都能用同一种语言进行交流”。故选A项。
2. D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的 Experts have learnt that, acrss cultures, peple can recgnise three cmmn emtins in music happiness, sadness and fear.可知，人们认为音乐是一种通用的语言，是因为它帮助人们分享共同的感情。故选D项。
3. B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的 Fr example, sme peple believe music is a universal language.及第四段中的 Sme peple believe dance is a universal language.和第五段中的 Anther universal language that yu might nt have thught f is maths! 可知，音乐、舞蹈和数学被认为是通用语言。故选B项。

刷7选5
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了四种中国古代的儿童玩的游戏。

【方法总结】逻辑关系法
做7选5时要注意逻辑关系词对上下文的衔接作用。关注前后文或选项中出现的关联词，然后按照对应的逻辑关系进行判断。例如并列关系、递进关系、转折关系、因果关系等。常见的逻辑关系词有and, als, hwever, but, instead, because, s等。例如第1小题中所选的F项中包含逻辑关系词 Instead，该题正是对逻辑关系的考查。
