2010年6月英語四級深度閱讀答案(文都版)

　一、選詞填空：

　　47 G （incredibly）

　　48 K （ replace）

　　49 J （reduced）

　　50 L （sense）

　　51 H （powering）

　　52 D （exceptions）

　　53E

　　54 O （vast）

　　55 F（historic）

　　56I （protect）

　　二、篇章理解

　　Passage one

　　57 D It is an indispensable device on an airplane

　　58 D Data for analyzing the cause of the crash

　　59 D The early models often got damaged in the crash

　　60 B To make them easily identifiable

　　61 A There is still a good chance of their being recovered

　　點評：這是篇可怕的文章，因為它談論到一個充滿著神秘色彩的device，黑匣子。從考生的反饋，這五道題后四道的難度一般，倒是57題迷惑性較大，主要體現在C選項（Its ability to ward off disaster is incredible）。

　　57 What does the author say about the black box?

　　A: It ensures the normal functioning of an airplane.

　　B: The idea for its design comes from a comic book.

　　C: Its ability to ward off disaster is incredible.

　　D: It is an indispensable device on an airplane.

　　帶著大家回原文第一段看看

　　You never see them, but they’re with you every time you fly. They record where you’re going, how fast you’re traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. They’re known as the black box.

　　57題誤選C的同學主要是對ward off 這個短語理解不到位。

　　提示：按照朗文詞典P1733的解釋ward off = prevent, keep away something bad 。請注意，是“prevent防止”。文章中很明確地提到，黑匣子只能“record記錄”，“withstand經受住”disaster，根本就沒提到“防止”。

　　不選D選項的同學還有一個可能就是對indispensable理解不到位，誤以為是“獨立”的意思。其實indispensable是“必不可少”的意思。

　　二、篇章理解

　　Passage two

　　62. B It is based on the concept of positive thinking

　　63. A Encouraging positive thinking may do more harm than good

　　64. C You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent

　　65. B Forcing a person to think positive thoughts may lower their self-esteem

　　66. C Meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapy

　　點評：這是一篇不那么積極的文章，從文章中感覺到一些無奈。從難度的角度分析，除了64題以外，另外四題難度適中。現在我們來分析分析這個讓我們不那么爽的64題。

　　64 What does the author mean by “… you’re just underlining his faults”(Line 4, Para.3)?

　　A: You are not taking his mistakes seriously enough.

　　B: You are pointing out the errors he has committed.

　　C: You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent.

　　D: You are trying to make him feel better about his faults.

　　這道題有不少考生選擇了B，可惜了。

　　解題思路如下：

　　按照解題方法，根據題干找回原文。

　　The study’s authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaithey Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by citing older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your dim friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, you’re just underlining his faults.

　　本題關鍵是理解兩個考點單詞“underline”與“dim”，underline = emphasize強調，dim有笨的意思，也就是“not intelligent”。

　　所以選C You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent.

　　三、快速閱讀

　　提醒考生，因為存在AB卷，所以不同的試卷答案順序不一樣，請考生重點看選項的具體內容。

　　1.A Her daughters’ repeated complaints

　　2.D People haven’t yet reached agreement on its definition

　　3.C can realize what is important in life

　　4.A it seriously affected family relationships

　　5.C depressed

　　6B His family had intervened(干涉)

　　7.B curb his desire for online gaming

　　填空題部分，注意單詞形式（主要是語法的問題）。

　　8. had an Internet Addiction 提醒考生，寫成has則錯誤，因為這里是指過去的事情。

　　9. for professional help 提醒考生，由于seek既可作為及物動詞，又可作為不及物動詞，所以for可用，也可不用。

　　10. online dating
