14、.分析 词义理解。本题的关键是理解文中词组be eligible for的含义。该词组意为“适宜被选中的；有恰当资格的”，因此原文Tens of thousands of youngsters from low-income families who were eligible for a childrens health insurance program in Florida意为“那些有资格享受佛罗里达州儿童健康保险项目的低收入家庭中的年轻人”与题干含义“佛罗里达州儿童健康保险项目旨在帮助低收入家庭中的孩子”相吻合，因此该题的说法是正确的。解题关键 正确理解短语be eligible fo

21、上与原文不相符。如题干中说到“达尔文理论未对进化过程作出解释”，而原文的说法则是“Although Darwinian theory explains many of the facts of evolution, it does not necessarily explain the whole process”即“虽然达尔文理论对进化的许多事实进行了解释，但它并未对进化过程进行解释。”又如题干中说到“达尔文理论未对进化的结果作出正确的预测”，而原文则是“some of the results of evolution do not match what Darwinian theory w

22、ould predict”即“一些进化结果与达尔文理论的预测并不相符”。由此可见，该题的说法是错误的。解题关键 将原文和选项中表程度的词相对比，可发现不同之处。二、Part (总题数：2，分数：20.00)Which of the following statements is true according to what you hear?Which of the following statements is true according to what you hear?（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following statements is true acc

26、5 percent, and would also restrain lending and investment that has led to redundant construction in some industries and regions.分析 特定信息的找寻和判断。本题要求识别并判断Mr. Wen所说的政府工作目标的各细节信息。根据题干中的关键词，找寻原段落中相关部分将A与第一句对照；B与第二句would also restrain lending and investment对照；C和D与第二句government would reduce the issuance of

27、state bonds intended to finance construction by about $3.6 billion, or 25 percent对照，可发现只有D的说法与原文相符，因此，选项d是正确的。解题关键 掌握同义词或近义词的替换。如原文中slower 与选项A中lower替换；原文中restrain与选项C中cut替换；原文中reduce和选项D中less替换。(2).What conclusions can you make about the people in New York City?AYou cant please anyone in New York C
