劍橋雅思17 Test1 Passage1閱讀答案解析

第1題答案：population

對(dui)應(ying)原文：第1段：In the first half of the 1800s,London’s population grew at an astonishing rate

答案解(jie)析：根據between 1800 and 1850與first half of the 1800s的(de)對應定(ding)位到(dao)第1段的(de)第1句(ju)。題目(mu)采用(yong)所有格替換，將原(yuan)文(wen)中(zhong)的(de)’s替換為(wei)of結構，由修飾關系確定(ding)答案為(wei)population。

第2題答案：suburbs

對應原文：第2段：His idea was to relocate the poor workers who lived in the inner-city slums to newly constructed suburbs

答(da)(da)案解析：根據(ju)上(shang)一行的(de)人(ren)名定(ding)位到(dao)第2段，再根據(ju)move與relocate的(de)對應(ying)定(ding)位到(dao)這句話(hua)。從(cong)空前介詞(ci)in可以推斷出答(da)(da)案應(ying)該是某個(ge)地點(dian)，由(you)此鎖定(ding)suburbs。

第3題答案：businessmen

對應原文：第2段：Pearson’s ideas gained support amongst some businessmen

答案解析(xi)：順著(zhu)上(shang)一題往下，根據Pearson’s ideas定位到這句話。空前(qian)短語(yu)a number of與some同義替(ti)換(huan)，由修飾關系(xi)確(que)定答案為businessmen。

第4題答案：funding

對應原文：第3段：The organisation had difficulty in raising the funding for such a radical and expensive scheme

答(da)案解析：跟之前題目(mu)相比，這道題稍(shao)微有(you)些(xie)難(nan)度。需要(yao)根據company與(yu)(yu)organisation，problems與(yu)(yu)difficulty兩組詞的對應才能真正(zheng)(zheng)確(que)定答(da)案在這句(ju)(ju)話中。但只(zhi)要(yao)找到這句(ju)(ju)話，從詞性和句(ju)(ju)子意思很容易判斷funding為正(zheng)(zheng)確(que)答(da)案。

第5題答案：press

對應原文：第(di)3段：not least because of the critical articles printed by the press

答案解析：順(shun)著上一題往下，根據(ju)articles定位(wei)到這句話，由題目意思鎖定press為正確答案。

第6題(ti)答案：soil

對應原文：第(di)4段(duan)：finally a brick arch was added to create a tunnel.A two-metre-deep layer of soil was laid on top of the tunnel

答案解(jie)析：根(gen)據brick arch定位到第4段的這句話。題(ti)干問的是(shi)隧(sui)道被什(shen)么(me)所(suo)覆蓋，其中cover與laid on top of對應，由此確(que)定答案為soil。

第7題答案：FALSE

對應原文：第5段：The Metropolitan line,which opened on 10 January 1863,was the world’s first underground railway.

答案(an)解析：文章第(di)5段(duan)開頭提(ti)到，Metropoolitan line是世界上第(di)一(yi)條地鐵線(xian)路。可見之前(qian)并沒有其他(ta)國(guo)家(jia)修(xiu)建過。題干中(zhong)的說法與原文相反(fan)，由此判斷答案(an)為FALSE。

第8題答(da)案：NOT GIVEN

對應原文：第5段：On its first day,almost 40,000 passengers were carried between Paddington and Farringdon

答(da)案解析：文章只提到第一(yi)天有40000人乘(cheng)坐Metropolitan line，之前預(yu)計的數(shu)據(ju)如(ru)何(he)則完全(quan)找不到。題干中more than predicted屬于(yu)無(wu)中生(sheng)有，由此判(pan)斷(duan)答(da)案為NOT GIVEN。

第(di)9題答(da)案(an)：TRUE

對應原文：第6段：smoke and fumes remained a problem,even though ventilation shafts were added to the tunnels.

答案解析：文章第6段最后(hou)一(yi)句提到(dao)，盡管增加了排氣扇(shan)，但煙霧和廢氣仍然是個(ge)問題。可見(jian)排氣扇(shan)未能解決(jue)隧(sui)道(dao)中的污(wu)染，由(you)此判(pan)斷(duan)答案為(wei)TRUE。

第10題答案：TRUE

對應原(yuan)文：第7段(duan)：The‘cut and cover’method of construction was not an option in this part of the capital.The only alternative was to tunnel deep underground.

答案解析：第7段最(zui)后(hou)提(ti)到，cut and cover的建造(zao)(zao)方法不(bu)適(shi)用(yong)于城市中(zhong)(zhong)心。唯(wei)一的替代方案是(shi)在地下深處建造(zao)(zao)隧道。題干中(zhong)(zhong)different approach對應alternative，technique對應method，剩下的基本(ben)是(shi)原詞，即所有信息(xi)點在原文中(zhong)(zhong)都能(neng)找到依據，由此判(pan)斷(duan)答案為TRUE。

第(di)11題答案(an)：FALSE

對應原文(wen)：第8段：The carriages were narrow and had tiny windows just below the roof because it was thought that passengers would not want to look out at the tunnel walls.

答案解析：根據原文，City&South London線的(de)窗戶(hu)開在(zai)緊(jin)挨著(zhu)車頂的(de)地方。但單(dan)憑這句話(hua)(hua)我(wo)們無(wu)法判(pan)(pan)斷(duan)(duan)窗戶(hu)是否在(zai)視平(ping)線。需(xu)要結(jie)合后面那句話(hua)(hua)，即乘客不想看(kan)隧(sui)道墻壁才能判(pan)(pan)斷(duan)(duan)答案為FALSE。

第12題(ti)答案(an)：FALSE

對應原(yuan)文：第8段：Although the City&South London Railway was a great technical achievement,it did not make a profit.

答案(an)解(jie)析：根據原文，City&South London線(xian)并(bing)未(wei)盈(ying)利，題干(gan)中financial success的說法(fa)與(yu)此(ci)相沖突，由此(ci)判(pan)斷答案(an)為FALSE。

第13題答案：NOT GIVEN

對應原文：無

答案(an)解析(xi)：原文完全沒(mei)有(you)提(ti)到Tuppenny Tube是否(fou)準(zhun)時運(yun)營的問題，題干屬于(yu)無中生有(you)，由此確定答案(an)為(wei)NOT GIVEN。
