36、、PART 1 (20 points)(总题数：1，分数：1.00)(1).The movie actor Arnold Schwargenegger, who is running for governor of California, belongs to the conservative Democratic Party.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析： In a series of radio broadcasts, Arnold Schwargenegger, the actor-turned-candidate-for-governor, staked out
37、some middle ground on social issues, taking positions that might alienate his conservative fellow Republicans but match the views of a majority of Californians.隐含事实的找寻和推断。原文在谈及 Arnold Schwargenegger 所采取的立场时说“alienate his conservative fellow Republicans“即“疏远了他那些保守的共和党派同伴”，由此可推断 Arnold Schwargenegger
38、应该是共和党而不是民主党。因此，题干的说法是错误的。 注意：1)理解关键词含义，如原文中 alienate 的意思；2)对重要信息做出正确推断，比如能推断出原文中 fellow(同伴)，表明Arnold Schwargenegger 的党派关系。(2).School failure and social isolation can lead to early onset of depression in children and teens, and the trend is becoming increasingly common.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析： Ear
39、ly onset of depression in children and teens is increasingly common. Depressed adolescents are at high risk for school failure, social isolation, promiscuity, “self-medication“, and even suicide the third leading cause of death among 15- to 24-year-olds.因果关系的判断。原文讨论青少年消沉沮丧的问题时说“Depressed adolescents
40、 are at high risk for school failure, social isolation“即“消沉沮丧的年轻人会面临巨大的危险，如学业失败，与社会隔绝等”，由此可判断，消沉沮丧是因，而学业失败，与社会隔绝等是果。题干因果关系倒置，因此是错误的。 注意：在没有明显信号词提示的情况下，迅速对上下文语义逻辑关系做出判断，如对上面句子中信息的逻辑关系做出判断。(3).According to the statement, Cheliean sea bass, a species of fish available along the coasts of the South Pole
41、, might have already become extinct due to illegal hunting.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析： Cheliean sea bass is a snow-white, flaky delicacy in restaurants in the United States, Japan and Europe. Environmentalists have warned that over-fishing and poaching could cause it to vanish from the coasts of Anta
42、rctica.语法理解。通过原文“overfishing“可判断 Cheliean sea bass 可能是鱼类，且原文提出对该物种的过度和非法捕捞“could cause it to vanish“与题干“might have already become extinct“意思不能吻合，前者表示对未来预测的一种可能性，而后者则表示对已发生情况的判断。因此，题干的说法是错误的。 注意：正确理解语法概念。(4).It can be inferred from me statement that the Swedish social welfare system, which provides l
43、ife-long care of its citizens, is no longer feasible and satisfactory.（分数：0.10）A.True B.False解析： In western Sweden, a five-year-old girl was abducted and stabbed to death last week by an inmate from a psychiatric institute who was able to come and go at will in part because the cost of looking after
44、 such patients in this cradle-to-grave welfare state is becoming too high.语义推理判断。本题要求从上下文语境中进行推断。原文谈到在这个从生到死都享受福利的国家，看护费用过高是导致精神病人能随意进出医院的部分原因，而这种病人随意出入医院又造成了 5 岁儿童的惨死。由此可推断，该国的福利制度已经不能令人满意，不再有效了。因此，题干的说法是正确的。 注意：能够凭借信号词对语义关系做出正确判断，如可根据原文中 because 对语义关系做出因果关系的判断。(5).Out of the 325 million laborers i
45、n the Middle East and North Africa, 63 percent are women and 32 percent university students.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析： While women make up half the 325 million people in the Middle East and North Africa, and in some countries as many as 63 percent of university students, they comprise only 32 percen
46、t of the labor force, according to a World Bank report released on the eve of its annual meeting with the International Monetary Fund.数字信息的找寻和判断。本题要求对妇女在各领域内的构成人数进行判断。将题干与原文进行对比可知，原文中说妇女在劳动力中占 32，而非题干中所言占大学生人数的 32，因此，题干的说法是错误的。 注意：迅速对数字及其相关信息做出反应和判断。(6).According to the statement, the UN Security Co
47、uncil resolution concerning Israel and Yasser Arafat was presented by the United States and approved by 11 Council members including Britain, Germany and Bulgaria.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析： The United States on Tuesday vetoed a UN Security Council resolution, backed by Islamic and nonaligned nations
48、, demanding that Israel back off its threat to deport the Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Eleven Council members voted in favor of the measure, while Britain, Germany and Bulgaria abstained.逻辑关系的识别和判断。关于联合国的这项议案，原文“Eleven Council members voted in favor of the measure, while Britain, Germany and Bu
49、lgaria abstained.“句中信号词 while 表明了其前后内容的对比，该词前面的内容是赞成(in favor of)，但后面的三个国家都对该议案持否定态度。因此，题干的说法是错误的。 注意：根据信号词对原文语义关系做出正确判断，如原句中 while 表明了其前后内容的对比。(7).Toyota Motor now ranks as the worlds second largest automobile manufacturers owing to its improved quality and enlarged market share.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析： Toyota Motor, having topped Daimler-Chryslers American unit in sales for the first time last month, may be poised to dethrone Ford Motor as the worlds second-biggest automaker w
