第6题,What do we learn from the Silicon Valley? 有关硅谷的话题,从第六段第二句话“Silicon Valley was intentionally created by Stanford university.”得知,答案为“It was intentionally created by Stanford University.”
第7题,What is said about the U.S. federal funding for the research? 第七段第二句话“but support for research funding has been unsteady”给出了答案:财政支持不稳定。
第8题的答案在第八段的第二句话,答案是“changes in the visa process.”;第9题的答案在第九段第一句话后半部分,“take their knowledge and skills back home.”;以及最后一道题的答案在第九段第二句话后半部分,“strengthen the nation”。
总的说来,做好快速阅读的细节题,要注意在原文中直接找到题干中的关键词。主要关键词包括名词、名词短语;次要关键词有动词、形容词、副词;注意主要关键词和次要关键词是相对的。根据专有名词回原文定位,如人名、书名、地名、年代、阿拉伯数字;找不到关键词要注意同意替换;根据提干所指段落回原文查读(注意ABCD选项中有关键词);提干未指出来自何段,如果题目在中间,根据题目顺序和自然段顺序一般一致的原则,定位相应的自然段(注意ABCD选项中有关键词)
三、传统阅读中的长句分析
In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied.Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories.
There is no shortage of这个是一个双重否定结构,基本就是《新概念英语》第三册第9课的原句重现“New York is the ideal place for such an interesting study, because there is no shortage of tall buildings.”
在这个句子中应该理解成“现在很多不需要用脑的活动充斥着小孩的生活”再由后面根据competition这个词可以知道这些活动是一种竞争关系。由此57题“A lot of distractions compete for children’s time nowadays.”答案是正确的。
As a writer I know about winning contests, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also know the pressure of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories.
Win contests 在《新概念英语》第二册第8课里出现过这样的用法。表达“赢得比赛”。
该句中涉及到only to do…表示遗憾的结果,这个的语法结构在《新概念》第三册30课涉及到。Live up to a reputation这样的结构在《新概念》第二册58课出现过表达“做到之前创造的好口碑”。该句表达“作为一个作家,我体验过成功和失败。我知道在努力付出后被出版商拒绝的滋味,我也有高处不胜寒的压力”由此可以知道58题选择“Her way to success was full of pains and frustrations”。
四、完型填空
68题中be tied to是《新概念》第三册中的重点短语表示“和….有关系,和….相连”。
70题的选项中的related和associated也是《新概念》第三册35课中的重点单词,它们都表达“和….有关联”。relate 和to搭配使用,但是associate却和with搭配使用。
74、75题的答案是并列连词but,和negative只要能判断前后两句话表达的是一种转折关系就很容易得出答案了,前后两句是“when our friends are happy and “up”, that trends to influence us positively, __74__ when they are “down”, that can have a __75__ impact on us.”并列连词在《新概念》第二册的第25课详细的讲到了。前后一个“up”一个“down”是一个鲜明的转折。所以74题的答案是but,75题的答案是negative。
