新题型一:选句填空
出题特点
1、出题位置
该节分为两个部分:主干部分和选项部分。主干部分的原文约600词,其中有5段空白处空白处的位置可能在段首、段落中间、段未,但不会是文章的第一句,一般情况下也不会是最后一句。选项部分为6或7文字,每段可能是一个句子,可能是两三个短句,也有可能是完整的段落。其中5段分属于主干部分的空白处。要求考生依据自己对文章的理解从选项中选择5段文字放回到文章中相应的5段空白处。
2、选项设置特点
非等额选项(题目5道,6-7个选项)。
3、测试重点
考生需要认真搞清楚主干内容和结构上的关系和布局,从而分辨出选项部分从结构和内容上看是属于文章的哪个部分,并可以与空白处的上下文有机地衔接起来。一般情况下不可能有特别明显的词汇、句子等语言方面的提示,也并不要求考生过分关注某一具体的细节;而是要着眼于全文,在理解全文内容、文章结构、逻辑关系(如时间、地点、因果关系、从属关系等)的基础之上方能做出正确选择。
做题技巧:
1.阅读选项,找出关键词,或写下部分中文意思。
2.每一空的前后句极为关键,一定要弄明白该空白处在文中的作用。根据上下文判断其与其他相邻句的逻辑关系。
3.选完一个,划掉一个,不要再受其干扰。
4.注意某些特殊词。如:therefore, nevertheless, the first, the best, the earliest等
5.做完后通读全文,检查。
6.注意时间最多不要超过30分钟。时间分配:5分钟阅读选项,20分钟做题,5分钟检查
7.放在段首的句子(段首题)的特点。
当选项或某段段首会含有betweenand ,eitheror, not onlybut also;?
复数名词时,那么该段将是总分结构,其中提到的名词可能定是线索;
会有标点符号:或?
放在段尾的句子有时也会有提示词(段尾题的特点):?
因果连词:therefore, thus, as a result, for this reason, hence ?
总结性连词:in short, to sum up, to conclude, in a word?
转折性连词:but, nevertheless

II. Reading Comprehension
Part B
Directions: In the following article, some sentences have been removed. For questions 41-45, choose the most suitable one from the list A-G to fit into each of the numbered blank. There are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Long before Man lived on the Earth, there were fishes, reptiles, birds, insects, and some mammals. Although some of these animals were ancestors of kinds living today, others are now extinct, that is, they have no descendants alive now. 41) __________.
Very occasionally the rocks show impression of skin, so that, apart from color, we can build up a reasonably accurate picture of an animal that died millions of years ago. The kind of rock in which the remains are found tells us much about the nature of the original land, often of the plants that grew on it, and even of its climate.
42)__________. Nearly all of the fossils that we know were preserved in rocks formed by water action, and most of these are of animals that lived in or near water. Thus it follows that there must be many kinds of mammals, birds, and insects of which we know nothing.
43)________. There were also crab-like creatures, whose bodies were covered with a horny substance. The body segments each had two pairs of legs, one pair for walking on the sandy bottom, the other for swimming. The head was a kind of shield with a pair of compound eyes, often with thousands of lenses. They were usually an inch or two long but some were 2 feet.
44)________. Of these, the ammonites are very interesting and important. They have a shell composed of many chambers, each representing a temporary home of the animal. As the young grew larger it grew a new chamber and sealed off the previous one. Thousands of these can be seen in the rocks on the Dorset Coast.
45)________.
About 75 million years ago the Age of Reptiles was over and most of the groups died out. The mammals quickly developed, and we can trace the evolution of many familiar animals such as the elephant and horse. Many of the later mammals, though now extinct, were known to primitive man and were featured by him in cave paintings and on bone carvings.
The shellfish have a long history in the rock and many different kinds are known.
Nevertheless, we know a great deal about many of them because their bones and shells have been preserved in the rocks as fossils. From them we can tell their size and shape, how they walked, the kind of food they ate.
The first animals with true backbones were the fishes, first known in the rocks of 375 million years ago. About 300 million years ago the amphibians, the animals able to live both on land and in water, appeared. They were giant, sometimes 8 feet long, and many of them lived in the swampy pools in which our coal seam, or layer, are formed. The amphibians gave rise to the reptiles and for nearly 150 million years these were the principal forms of life on land, in the sea, the in the air.
The best index fossils tend to be marine creatures. These animals evolved rapidly and spread over large areas of the world.
The earliest animals whose remains have been found were all very simple kinds and lived in the sea. Later forms are more complex, and among these are the sea-lilies, relations of the starfishes, which had long arms and were attached by a long stalk to the sea bed, or to rocks.
When an animal dies, the body, its bones, or shell, may often be carried away by streams into lakes or the sea and there get covered up by mud. If the animal lived in the sea its body would probably sink and be covered with mud. More and more mud would fall upon it until the bones or shell become embedded and preserved.
Many factors can influence how fossils are preserved in rocks. Remains of an organism may be replaced by minerals, dissolved by an acidic solution to leave only their impressions, or simply reduced to a more stable form.
答案:
本篇介绍的是史前类动物。文章结构的脉络清晰:首先介绍什么是史前动物和我们研究史前动物的依据化石,以及化石形成的过程。随后,作者即按照动物进化的顺序我们可以见到其化石的最早的动物,水生壳类动物,脊椎类动物逐一加以介绍。
41.文章一开始,作者告诉我们,早在人类出现以前地球上就许多物种,现在有些物种的后代依然生存,而另外一些则没有留下后裔。在本题空白处后面文章又说岩石上偶尔会留下数百万年前就死掉了的动物精确的印记。显然,空白处应该是关于岩石与灭绝了的动物之间的关系(7个选项中有A﹑B﹑E﹑G四项提到了rock,但另外大三项意思上不符)。此外,空白处前面的extinct和no descendant均为否定意义和表达,而空白处的后面accurate和much则为肯定意义的表达;这意味着空白处的内容应该有一个结构上的转折只有B项符合这一条件。所以正确答案只能是B。
42.本题考查寻找特征词的能力。在该题中,根据就近原则在该题后的句子中找到the fossils和water action为特征词。the fossils说明 fossils一词是至少是第二次出现,因为它前面加了定冠词the,通过仔细观察并不难发现,42以及其前面的内容中都没有fossils,这就确定fossils一词必定出现在41,42中。根据意群相一致原则,在42中必定要与water action同现或复现的语言点。综上所述,只有同时满足以上两个条件的选项才是正确答案。虽然G项一开始就有how fossils are preserved,与上文和下文似乎都是相吻合的;但是G项后面讲的是动物遗体上的有机组织organism可能转达化成几种形式,而本题空白处后面的内容则告诉人们Nearly all of the fossils that we know were preserved in rocks formed by water action
Canadas premiers , if they have any breath left after complaining about Ottawa at their late July annual meeting, might spare a moment to do something, together, to reduce health-care costs.
Theyre all groaning about soaring health budgets, the fastest-growing component of which are pharmaceutical costs.
41.
What to do? Both the Romanow commission and the Kirby committee on health care to say nothing of reports from other experts recommended the creation of a national drug agency. Instead of each province having its own list of approved drugs, bureaucracy, procedures and limited bargaining power, all would pool resources, work with Ottawa, and create a national institution.
42.
But national doesnt have to mean that. National could mean interprovincial provinces combining efforts to create one body.
Either way, one benefit of a national organization would be to negotiate better prices, if possible, with drug manufacturers. Instead of having one province or a series of hospitals within a province negotiate a price for a given drug on the provincial list, the national agency would negotiate on behalf of all provinces.
Rather than, say, Quebec, negotiating on behalf of seven million people, the national agency would negotiate on behalf of 31 million people. Basic economics suggests the greater the potential consumers, the higher the likelihood of a better price.
43.
A small step has been taken in the direction of a national agency with the creation of the Canadian Coordinating Office for Health Technology Assessment, funded by Ottawa and the provinces. Under it, a Common Drug Review recommends to provincial lists which new drugs should be included. Predictably, and regrettably, Quebec refused to join.
A few premiers are suspicious of any federal-provincial deal-making. They just want Ottawa to fork over additional billions with few, if any, strings attached. Thats one reason why the idea of a national list hasnt gone anywhere, while drug costs keep rising fast.
44.
Premiers love to quote Mr. Romanows report selectively, especially the parts about more federal money. Perhaps they should read what he had to say about drugs: A national drug agency would provide governments more influence on pharmaceutical companies in order to try to constrain the ever-increasing cost of drugs.
45.
So when the premiers gather in Niagara Falls to assemble their usual complaint list, they should also get cracking about something in their jurisdiction that would help their budgets and patients.
Quebecs resistance to a national agency is provincialist ideology. One of the first advocates for a national list was a researcher at Laval University. Quebecs Drug Insurance Fund has seen its costs skyrocket with annual increases from 14.3 per cent to 26.8 per cent!
Or they could read Mr. Kirbys report: The substantial buying power or such an agency would strengthen the pubic prescription-drug insurance plans to negotiate the lowest possible purchase prices from drug companies.
What does national mean? Roy Romano and Senator Michael Kirby recommended a federal-provincial body much like the recently created National Health Council.
The problem is simple and stark: health-care costs have been, are, and will continue to increase faster than government revenues.
According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, Prescription drug costs have risen since 1997 at twice the rate of overall health-care spending. Part of the increase comes from drugs being used to replace other kinds of treatments. Part of it arises from new drugs costing more than older kinds. Part of it is higher prices.
So, if the provinces want to run the health-care show, they should prove they can run it, starting with an interprovincial health list that would end duplication, save administrative costs, prevent one province from being played off against another, and bargain for better drug prices.
Of course, the pharmaceutical companies will scream. They like divided buyers; they can lobby better that way. They can use the threat of removing jobs from one province to another. They can hope that, if one province includes a drug on its list, the pressure will cause others to include it on theirs. They wouldnt like a national agency, but self-interest would lead them to deal with it.
[真题答案详解]
41.
空白前的一段说,省长们都在抱怨医疗成本飞涨,其中涨得最快的就是药品的费用。空白后的一段则问该怎么干。按照逻辑,上一段讲了医疗成本飞速增长,接下来一定会举例说明,一定会涉及数字、比例等内容。在7个选项中,有与涉及及数字。讲到魁北克抵制参加全国性组织,而这事在以后的段落中才出现,所以肯定不是正确答案。讲到了药品消费的上升并分析了原因,是正确答案。
42.
空白前的一段提到了要成立全国性的机构,并讲到了它的特点。空白后的一段以But 开头,解释national 的含义,所以空白处必定是解释national 这一词的。 What does national mean 与下一段But national doesnt have to mean 是前后呼应的选择。
