6、坏的错误观点,所以此题属于并不存在的比较关系。Question 7答案: TRUE关键词:follow on from定位原文:第6段第2句“These observations are generally consistent with our previous studies of pupils views about the use and conservation of rainforests”解题思路:“previous”一词是先前的意思,证明在此研究之前,人们也就学生对热带雨林的看法做了研究,因此本文所提到的调査是在这些研究之后进行的。Question 8答案:NOT GIVEN关
7、键词:primary/second解题思路:文中直到最末尾也从未提到这项研究是否会继续,所以此题属于无中生有。Question 9答案:M关键词:where/ rainforests定位原文:第4段第6句“The commonest responses were continents or countries: Africa (given by 43% of children), South America (30%), Brazil (25%).”解题思路:根据对应句信息可选出答案为M。Question 10答案:E关键词:importance/rainforests定位原文:第9段第1句t

14、phin定位原文:第4段第3句“By comparison, the bottlenose dolphin has extremely keen vision in water. Judging from the way it watches and tracks airborne flying fish, it can apparently see fairly well through the air-water inter?face as well.”解题思路:题干中的exceptional和文中的extremely是同义替换,所以根据定位句答案应该为water。Question 20答
15、案:(the) lower frequencies关键词:most large baleen定位原文:第6段第3句“Large baleen whales primarily use the lower frequencies and are often limited in their repertoire.”解题思路:根据定位句信息,可知答案是(the) lower frequencies。Question 21答案:bowhead humpback (IN EITHER ORDER)关键词:song-like定位原文:第6段第4句“Notable exceptions are the n

24、anings for each line of motion,but as a group they generally came up with the same meaning at least as frequently as did sighted subjects.”解题思路:从“not onlybutcame up with the same meaning as least as frequently as did sighted subjects” 可以得出A选项正确。这里并没有说比sighted subjects会好,所以D选项是不对的。Question 30答案:E关键词:
25、无定位原文:Part1第4段最后一句“Subjects assumed that spokes extending beyond the wheels perimeter signified that the wheel had its brakes on.”解题思路:这段话恰好说明辐条超出了车轮的周界是使用了刹车,所以正确答案为E。Question 31答案:C关键词:无定位原文:Part1第4段最后一句“.and that dashed spokes indicated the wheel was spinning quickly.”解题思路:这句话的意思是虚线辐条表示车轮在快速转动,故正
