下次做题前默读

  1. :原文提到某个数字/事实 ≠ 做了比较。只有 "more…than…" 这类比较结构才是真正在做比较。
  2. Y/N/NG:看到 all/every/always 不要条件反射选 NO。先看原文主语有没有限定词(some/most/many),没有限定 = 全体。
  3. Y/N/NG:erode/decline/diminish 这类动词自带"今不如昔"的时间对比,不是 NG。
  4. 图表填空:先把图表已有标签全部读一遍,搞清楚哪些是空的;再对照原文按数值大小排序填入,保持格式一致。
  5. 同义替换永远是第一关:visits = consulted、climb steadily = increasing numbers、chronic = long-term,做题时主动找替换。
核心问题

教训

花了120亿是独立陈述,"more...than..."才是真正的比较结构。选项混淆了"提到某个数字"和"做了比较",要看清比较的对象是什么。

Q15 单选题 正确

In 1990, Americans…

我的答案
正确答案
原文
Americans made more visits to alternative therapists than to orthodox doctors in 1990, and each year they spend about $US 12 billion on the therapies that have not been scientifically tested.
教训

教训

原文提到两件事不等于两件事有比较关系。花了120亿是独立陈述,"more...than..."才是真正的比较结构。选项混淆了"提到某个数字"和"做了比较",要看清比较的对象是什么。

Q16 Y/N/NG 正确

Australians have been turning to alternative therapies inincreasing numbersover the past 20 years.

我的答案
正确答案
原文
Disenchantment with orthodox medicine has seen the popularity of alternative therapies in Australia climb steadily during the past 20 years.
教训

同义替换积累

increasing numbers = climb steadily = growing popularity——都是"持续增长"的不同说法。

Q19 Y/N/NG 正确

In the past, Australians had ahigher opinionof doctors than they do today.

我的答案
正确答案
原文
The high standing of professionals, including doctors, has been eroded as a consequence.
教训

教训

erode(侵蚀)类动词自带"今不如昔"的含义。类似的表达还有 decline, diminish, deteriorate, fade——看到这类词,原文就是在做"过去 vs 现在"的隐性对比,不是 NG。

Q23 Y/N/NG 正确

Allthe patients in the 1993 Sydney survey had long-term medical complaints.

我的答案
正确答案
原文
Those surveyed had experienced chronic illnesses, for which orthodox medicine had been able to provide little relief.
教训

核心教训

不要看到 all/every/always 就条件反射选 NO!先看原文怎么说:如果原文的主语没加限制词(some/most/many),那就是在说全体。all 不等于错。这是连续第二次犯这个错误(上次 P1 的 Q13 也是被绝对词误导)。

Q24 填空题 正确

图表纵轴从上到下:Other → Musculo-skeletal → Digestive →24 ___→ Respiratory → Candida →25 ___→26 ___→ General health maintenance

我的答案
正确答案
原文
18% of patients visiting alternative therapists do so because they suffer from muscular-skeletal complaints; 12% suffer from digestive problems, which is only 1% more than those suffering from emotional problems. Those suffering from respiratory complaints represent 7%, and candida sufferers represent an equal percentage. Headache sufferers and those complaining of general ill health represent 6% and 5% respectively, and a further 4% see therapists for general health maintenance.

教训

做图表填空题时,先把已有标签全部看清楚,确认哪些位置是空的,再对照原文数据填。不要只顾着找原文就忘了看图。

Q25 填空题 正确 headache(s)
我的答案
Headache sufferers
正确答案
headache(s)
教训

教训

图表填空要保持格式一致。看看同列/同轴的其他标签是什么格式,照着来。
