What is really happening? You do not see through the glass of a mirror as you do through a window. The glass of a mirror has a silver coating on the back. The light from the sun or a bulb bounces (彈回)off you ,goes into the mirror ,and bounces straight back out to you again.
Mirrors have been used for thousands of years. The earliest were round pieces of shiny metal. Glass mirrors came late. The ancients thought that a mirror was magic. They did not understand how it worked. They thought they saw their spirits in a mirror and breaking a mirror brought bad luck.

文章講的是鏡子的產(chǎn)生及其它發(fā)展的過程，并講到了鏡子的作用。
1. B 從you do everything backward(相反地)in the mirror可知你做的動作與你的鏡子里看到是相反的，所以你wave your right hand看到的就是your left hand wave，選B。
2. A 細(xì)節(jié)題的考查。從Mirrors have been used for thousands of years可知鏡子很久前就出現(xiàn)了，選A。從The earliest were round pieces of shiny metal可知B答案錯誤，不是開始時鏡子就是玻璃做的；C答案也錯誤，現(xiàn)在流行的鏡子是玻璃做的；而從They did not understand how it worked知道古代人們并不知道鏡子如何發(fā)生作用，故D也錯，選A。
3. A 我們可以定位到第二段，從下面They thought they saw their spirits in a mirror可知這就是他們認(rèn)為的原因，故選A。
4. D 首先找到這個單詞的位置在最后一段，再看后面make people seem short and round or tall and tin可知讓高的變成矮的，故是彎曲變形的意思，選D。
