P: Zoos were originally created as places of entertainment, and their suggested involvement with conservation didn’t seriously arise until about 30 years ago. 9 v1 F6 W( k3 W6 g* e7 @0 |2 f; f- Z
这道题目的考点换成了insignificant, 这次的对应词不像上一道题目那么好找,in这次对应是didn’t, 而significant对应的是seriously arise, 答案同样为TRUE. + c' d3 S* T {' n$ `! U! s

P: Today approximately 16 species might be said to have been “saved” by captive breeding prgrammes, although a number of these can hardly be looked upon as resounding successes. ) p1 A3 B4 Q z# {& `
现在大家一定已经清楚了考点词为unsatisfactory, 再回原文找一下对应,这次un对应hardly, 而satisfactory对应的是success. 5 I; r% ?& t+ g$ A

7 C: m: d6 K8 G( }; y" P, G综合三道题目来看,考点都为否定词,做题目的思路上基本一致,都在找对应,而答案又惊人地一致,都选了TRUE.请仔细体会。* M0 t+ T _8 c( [$ p

能不能找到unable的对应词呢?如果你并不认识原文中的间接否定短语be at a loss to 的话,那么至少你知道loss这个词能够表明否定含义,否定词对应到了否定词,其他的就不用担心了。答案为TURE。原文中的短语be at a loss to 意思即为“不知道,不知所措。”请注意积累。 |
