21.答案C。解答此题，正确理解“Yes…us”一句含义是关键。其实质含义是：“许多人读书时因观念不正确，而仅仅能从书本中得到很少的知识获得很少的启迪”。这样，我们就可以对选项进行逐个分析取舍了。A项意为“作者认为许多人读的书都太少”，显然与我们的分析不符。B项意为“作者认为读者仅仅从书中汲取了部分知识。”这句话只是引文部分的字面含义，所以也应排除。再看C项作者认为许多人对某类书应该包含什么样的内容没有正确的观念。这才是作者的隐含意思，所以是正确的。而D项“作者认为许多读者对大量的书都不能读懂。”这也是一种错误的理解，也应排除。这样就可确定选项为C。
22.答案D。此题只能用排除法，去掉与文章细节不符的选项。选项A意为“读者在阅读时应该能发现一些错误。”文章中没有此细节，可排除。B项“一本书越难读，从中得到知识也越多。”也与文意无关。再看C项“阅读比观看容易。”根据文章第二段第四句最后一分句可知这正与作者的观点相反，故也排除。最后只剩下D项，应为正确答案。而其内容“读者在阅读时应和作者保持一致。”正是作者的观点，无疑正确。
23.答案B。先看上文：作家想把素材安排得像一座完整的大房，使之具体化。接下来就是含有“impalpable”一句。句首用“but”引导，有转折含义。所以此单词意义可能与“具体”相对。再看下文，阅读比观看更复杂和费时。这样，该词的含义就可以基本确定了，应该是“非常抽象难以捉摸的”之类的意思。(这里与”砖头”相比，更加强了这一点)据此可排除A、D项。C项意为“微妙”，意近。但B项恰好意为“难以捉摸的”，更与生词含义接近，所以应选B。此题目C项干扰性较大，注意要避免匆忙选择，而功亏一篑。
24.答案B。解答此题关键在于先弄清文章的主旨和大意。在此基础上就可进行选弃了。此短文主要讲“何为正确的读书方法”。据此，A项“阅读的重要性”，C项“如何从书中获取最多的信息”，D项“一本好书的特征”，均不能选。而B项“何为正确的读书方法”，正与我们的分析不谋而合，所以B为正确答案无疑。
25.答案B。答案可从文章最后一句获得。解答此类题的关键就是找到并正确理解有关细节。根据最后一句可知“作家构思的获得是通过瞬间的感悟。”可确定：B项为正确答案。
