Part III Reading Comprehension
Section A
26. [C] essential
27. [M] suspicion
28. [G] miserable
29. [A] constantly
30. [O] watching
31. [J] records
32. [K] removed
33. [F] load
34. [I] properly
35. [H] pressure
解析:
26題根據上下文得知,此處應該是說人與人之間信任的重要性。很明顯答案C. essential符合條件,B選項有可信的意思,看到此選項可能下意識地會選這個答案,但翻譯成“信任是可信的”,和主旨無關,此處還是討論信任的重要性。
29題容易選一個名詞比如records和”mistakes”並列,但是後面的選項並沒有雙引號,後面是一個動詞reminding,可以推測前面需要填入副詞來修飾reminding,根據語義“要求你做這做那”,可以推出是不斷要求,而不是properly恰當地,排除完可以得出constantly.
31題,此處判斷應填名詞,有同學可能會和pressure弄混淆,但此處並不能得出公司要施加壓力。公司出於自我保護和信任問題,對於任何交易記錄都會留有根據和存根,這些都是記錄,所以答案應該是records,
Section B
36. [G] The Chetty data shows that neighborhoods and places mattered for children born in the San Jose area of the 1980s.
37. [D] The reasons kids in San Jose performed so well might seem obvious.
38. [K] The idea that those at the bottom can rise to the top is central to America's ideas about itself.
39. [B] Indeed, data suggests that this is one of the best places to grow up poor in America.
40. [J] But in today's America-a land of rising inequality
41. [I] Leaders in San Jose are determined to make sure that the city regains its status as a place where even poor kids can access the resources to succeed.
42. [E] Indeed, the streets of San Jose seem, in some ways, to embody the best of America.
43. [C] By contrast, just 4.4 percent of poor kids in Charlotte moved up to the top
44. [H] Some San Jose residents say that as inequality has grown in recent years
45. [F] But researchers aren 't sure exactly why poor kids in San Jose did so well.
解析:
38題幹主旨表達的是如果該市的問題不解決將會動搖美國的根本信仰,對應K項中的America's ideas about itself.和foundational belief.可以進行匹配。
41題幹第一句該市的官員,可以定位到[I]選項第一句Leaders in San Jose, 且 該句直接表明了目的,就是爲了提升貧困孩子觸達成功的機會。
42題中的manifest詞彙較爲生僻,但後面的some of the best features可以理解說的是關於美國最好的幾點特質,對應到[E]選項to embody the best of America.
44 題幹關鍵信息是 increases in housing prices,快速瀏覽後可以定位到[H]項多次提到如Rent,homelessness problem, housing prices等與住房相關的信息
Section C
Passage One
46. [D] They lack the necessary resources to address pupils’ mental problems.
47. [A] They have deteriorated due to budget cuts.
48. [B] At school.
49. [C] Students are more comfortable seeking counselling in school.
50. [D] A change in the conception of what schools are.
解析:
46題A和B選項屬於無中生有,C選項說的是學校在實施干預方面舉措不利,但是根據原文第二段第二句,how ill-equipped they feel 可以看出主體是老師自己而不是學校,此處是一個偷換概念的陷阱,還是要基於文章的意思判斷。
47題的C選項與原文第三段最後一句意義相反;B和D選項也是無中生有,A選項中出現了一個生詞,但最後出現的budgets cuts還是可以幫助我們定位到第三段第二句。
49. A和B均屬無中生有,D選項則偷換了概念,原文是指學生們更願意在校內進行心理輔導而不是外面的心理諮詢,D選項則替換成了校外活動。
Passage Two
51. [A] To illustrate people’s peculiar shopping behavior.
52. [D] To make customers believe they are getting a bargain.
53. [B] The E conomist’s promotional strategy works.
54. [C] To trap customers into buying the more pricey item.
55. [B] By comparing it with other choices.
解析:
51題的BD選項都屬於捏造的信息,C選項具有一定迷惑性,但描述的是表面的信息,並不是作者舉例的真實目的,此處挑選飲料本質是想要闡述一種特定購物行爲。
52題討論的是中罐蘇打水定價的理由,A選項吸引更多人去買很明顯不對,因爲中罐蘇打水重量減半價格卻很貴,同理B項也不符合,C項本文並未提及,屬於生造的信息。所以中罐蘇打是爲了讓顧客以同樣價格買到更大罐的飲料從而覺得佔到便宜。
53 題A選項看似符合常理,但並不是Dan的研究成果內容,屬於張冠李戴;C項文中並沒有提及是賣的最好的; 最後的D項也偷換了概念,很有迷惑性,研究結果的意思是如果沒有紙質加電子版這個選項的話,大部分人還是會選擇更便宜的電子版,但和紙質版對比,同樣的價格還可以獲得電子版,所以人們會更傾向選擇print plus digital,而不是digital
