38、his body is most efficient in utilizing nutrients. For reasons that scientists do not understand, women get a five-year bonus. 分析 数字信息的找寻和判断。 根据原文可知,男人在 25岁以前的 10年中身体状态、各项机能处于最高峰,但不知为什么,women get a five-year bonus 即女人的高峰时期比男人还多五年。由此可见,原文并未讨论女性寿命比男性长的问题。因此,题干的说法与原文不符。 解题关键 能够将关键信息总结归纳。如将本题中几个最高级表达 fi
39、rmest,highest 和 most efficient 总结归纳,可知本段主题讨论身体最佳状态或身体机能的高峰,显然与题干中关键词 outlive“比活得长”不符。(3).There is speculation that Mr. Bush would eventually repay all the national debts in his term.(分数:2.00)A.正确B.错误 解析:解析 Before Mr. Bush came to power, the federal government had a surplus. It was spending less than
40、 it received in taxes and there was even speculation that most of the national debt might eventually be repaid. 分析 特定信息的找寻和判断。 根据原文,在布什就职前,联邦政府还有赢余,政府的开销少于其税收收入,甚至有人预测大部分国债最终会被偿清。由此可推测,布什当政后,情况发生了变化。题干中说布什先生最终会在任期内偿清国债的说法与原文不符,因此题干是错误的。 解题关键 掌握表示时间的状语从句内容,如本题原文中 Before Mr. Bush came to power是解题的关键。(

46、EPR缓解不平衡的措施,原文认为. Asian governments,the United States and the European Union to coordinate policy即亚洲各国政府、美国和欧盟应协调政策,显然题干中 the European Union needs to make changes 的说法与原文不符;另外,原文还提到 the US also has to save more and cut spending即美国人需多存少花,显然题干 the United States has to spend more and save less 的说法与原文恰恰相
47、反。由此可知,题于的说法是错误的。 解题关键 根据题干中专有名同的特点,注意收集原文中有关国家或机构的信息。(2).According to the speaker, Appleton obtained a degree in natural sciences from Cambridge in 1913 and one year later joined the Royal Engineers where he was trained in radio technology invented by Marconi.(分数:2.00)A.正确 B.错误解析:解析 Born in Bradfor
