Passage Two
Cambridge is about 90 kilometers northeast of London. It is one of most beautiful places in Britain. Everything about the city of Cambridge reminds you of its famous university: student on bicycles, an atmosphere of learning, traditions and the magnificent buildings of the 30 colleges that are in the University of Cambridge. Most of the colleges stand on the bank of the Cam River a gentle river that flows through the heart of the city. Tourists and students like boating in a kind of flat bottom boat to see the colleges or to relax themselves. If the water traffic reminds the visitor of Venice, the road traffic is more likely to recall Beijing or Amsterdam. The streets are full of bicycles, hundreds and hundreds of them. They provide a cheap form of transport for the students and very conveniently of getting around the Cambridge's nearer streets.

15. What do tourists enjoy doing in Cambridge for relaxation?
16. Why does the road traffic in Cambridge remind one of Beijing?
17. What is the speaker's impression of Cambridge?
參考答案與分析
15 C 這一題的考點是這樣一句話“Tourists and students like boating in a kind of flat bottom boat to see the colleges or to relax themselves”旅行者和學生都喜歡劃船觀光大學或休閑娛樂。這個C選項的Boating on the river幾乎一模一樣的原詞復現。
16 D 這題的考點是:the road traffic is more likely to recall Beijing or Amsterdam .The streets are full of bicycles, hundreds and hundreds of them 道路的交通讓人聯想到北京和阿姆斯特丹。街道上滿是自行車,成百成百的自行車。 其實這句兩句話邏輯上是一個因果關系,但難就難在,他沒有直接用諸如:because一類的因果提示詞提示我們。 但其實這題我們還是很容易猜到的。問題問的是traffic 而文章中也反反復復多次提到的就是bicycle,應該說我們不難把這兩者聯系在一起的。
17 B 這題考的是作者觀點,那么其實作者在這文章里并沒有明確表達自己的觀點。但文章的開頭有這樣一句話“It is one of most beautiful places in Britain”它是英國最美麗的地方之一。 Most是一個最高級提示詞。 從這句可以看出作者對劍橋的印象是相當不錯的,以后作者的介紹也是給我們描繪了一幅非常美麗的場景。因此A、C這種帶有負面色彩的選項肯定排除。D選項雖然是比較正面的,但是它太具體了。一般這種太具體的選項也不會成為正確選項。因為事實上作者沒有明確表示他羨慕那邊學生舒適的生活。B選項就表達得比較抽象,說作者很喜歡這個地方。從作者對這個地方極盡贊美之詞,我們也不難看出他是喜歡的。
