剑桥雅思10 Test4 Passage1阅读答案解析
第1题答案:spread
对应原文:第1段:The wildfires themselves, experts say, are generally hotter, faster, and spread more erratically than in the past.
答案解析:根据hotter,faster定位到第1段的这一句。从题干中可以看出空上应该填一个与它们并列的单词,由此锁定spread。
第2题答案:10/ten times
对应原文:第2段:Megafires, also called ‘siege fires’, are the increasingly frequent blazes that burn 500,000 acres or more – 10 times the size of the average forest fire of 20 years ago.
答案解析:根据two decades与20 years的对应定位到这句话。从题干推测,空上应该填一个文章来自老烤鸭雅思形容比较级的短语或者词汇。原文中只有10 times填上去比较合适,由此锁定答案。
第3题答案:below
对应原文:第3段:… which usually has dry summers, has had significantly below normal precipitation in many recent years.
答案解析:这道题的同义替换比较难一些,不少同学不太认识precipitation(降水,降水量)这个单词。这种情况下,只能根据上一题和下一题对应的位置,缩小寻找范围。进而发现average与normal的对应,由此确定答案为below。
第4题答案:fuel
对应原文:第3段:The unintentional consequence has been to halt the natural eradication of underbrush, now the primary fuel for megafires.
答案解析:根据brush定位到这句话。从题干可以推测空上填的应该是灌木作为什么,而原文中只有fuel一词填上去语义通顺,由此确定答案。
第5题答案:seasons
对应原文:第4段:Second is fire seasons that on average are 78 days longer than they were 20 years ago.
答案解析:顺着上一题往下,题干中上一行的temperature对应第一个原因,由此可以推断空上应该填第二个原因。fire原词出现,确定seasons为答案。
第6题答案:homes/housing
对应原文:第4段:Third is increased construction of homes in wooded areas.
答案解析:遇上一道题类似,根据并列定位到第3点,building与construction同义替换,根据修饰关系,确定homes为答案。
第7题答案:TRUE
对应原文:第6段:… for at least a decade, more residential housing is being built. ‘What once was open space is now residential homes
答案解析:第6段中间提到,曾经的开阔地带现在被住宅所占据,即开阔地带逐渐减少。而题干中的last ten years也可以从上一句的decade中找到依据,由此判断答案为TRUE。
第8题答案:FALSE
对应原文:第7段:many experts give California high marks for making progress
答案解析:第7段开头提到,许多专家对于加利福尼亚州的进步给出了很高的评价。题干中的made little progress与原文表达含义相冲突,由此判断答案为FALSE。
第9题答案:TRUE
对应原文:第7段:Stung in the past by criticism of bungling that allowed fires to spread when they might have been contained, personnel
答案解析:题干中的其他成分在原文中都可以找到直接对应,关键在于对mishandling的理解。原文中表示,消防员让本可以得到控制的火灾蔓延,即处置不当,对应mishandling,由此判断答案为TRUE。
第10题答案:TRUE
对应原文:第9段:Besides providing money to upgrade the fire engines
答案解析:第9段第一句提到,州政府提供资金升级消防车辆。题干中replaced与upgrade对应,firefighting tools与fire engines对应,即题干主要信息点在原文中都能够找到依据,由此判断答案为TRUE.
第11题答案:NOT GIVEN
对应原文:无
答案解析:原文中没有提到任何有关消防员人数的问题,题干属于无中生有,由此判断答案为NOT GIVEN。
第12题答案:FALSE
对应原文:第9段:There is a sense among both government officials and residents that the speed, dedication, and coordination of firefighters from several states and jurisdictions are resulting in greater efficiency than in past ‘siege fire’ situations.
答案解析:第9段最后一句提到,政府和居民都认为不同州与管辖区之间的合作有利于提升效率。题干中的disapprove与该描述相反,由此判断答案为FALSE。
第13题答案:FALSE
对应原文:第10段:we will no longer suffer the loss of life
答案解析:Jacob表示,现在我们不会再遭受曾经遭受过的生命损失。题干中的at the same levels与原文描述相反,由此判断答案为FALSE.
