34、知,下面一句的内容 Thats not exactly unexpected for a film with subject matter so sensitive and traumatic 应是原因,即该片主题过于敏感,令人痛苦难忘。由此可知,题干的说法是正确的。 解题关键 根据上下文内在逻辑,找到因果关系。本题上述引文中的指示代词 that 表明了上下旬间的语义关系。(4).The declaration, issued by women foreign ministers attending the annual six-week session of the UN Human Rig

39、aking multivitamins dose is to give them expensive urine. After all, true vitamin deficiencies, such as scurvy and pellagra, are practically unheard of in industrialized countries.

40、itamin shortfall can be harmful to your health. Although proof of the benefits of multivitamin is still far from certain, the few dollars you spend on them is probably a good investment. 分析 观点态度的找寻和判断。 对于 multivitamins 多种维生素的看法,讲话者首先提到以前的传统看法,然后下结论 Now it seems those doctors may have been wrong 由此可判
41、断,讲话者的观点应在该句之后。那么原文最后一句的结论 Although proof of the benefits of multivitamin is still far from certain,the few dollars you spend on them is probably a good investment 即虽然人们仍没有充足证据证明多种维生素的益处,但是花一点钱在维生素上很可能是一项好投资,显然为讲话者观点。题干的说法显然与原文相符,因此题干的内容是正确的。 解题关键 了解段落的发展方式有助于讲话者正确定位该段的重点信息。本段的发展方式颇为典型,属于“抛球打击式”,即讲话
42、者往往先抛出别人或传统的观点,然后以评判式结论予以打击。如本题原文中 Now it seems those doctors may have been wrong 便是典型的评判式结论。之后,讲话者便拿出自己的观点,成为全文探讨的主要内容。讲话者自己的观点往往在段尾。二、BPart /B(总题数:2,分数:20.00)(分数:10.00)(1).Which of the following statements is true? a.
