4 Tehrani’s analysis focused on Little Red Riding Hood in its many forms,which include another Western fairy tale known as The Wolf and the Kids.Checking for variants of these two tales and similar stories from Africa,East Asia and other regions,he ended up with 58 stories recorded from oral traditions.Once his phylogenetic analysis had established that they were indeed related,he used the same methods to explore how they have developed and altered over time.

答案

上文第一句出現(xiàn)的了in many forms,相關的內容有B選項中的many different forms，這句中的Little Red Riding Hood對應B選項中的the same basic story，這句中的Tehrani’s analysis focused on對應B選項中的he looked at，所以答案選B。

注意，上文第一句中which引導的定語從句是服務前面的主句，所以我們看主句做題即可，當主句的內容不夠的時候我們再看從句，但主句的內容必須是占主導的。

9 Jack Zipes at the University of Minnesota,Minneapolis,is unconvinced by Tehrani‘s views on fairy tales.’Even if they’re gruesome,they won’t stick unless they matter，’he says.He believes the perennial theme of women as victims in stories like Little Red Riding Hood explains why they continue to feel relevant.But Tehrani points out that although this is often the case in Western versions,it is not always true elsewhere.In Chinese and Japanese versions,often known as The Tiger Grandmother,the villain is a woman,and in both Iran and Nigeria,the victim is a boy.

答案

上文第一句出現(xiàn)了定位詞Jack Zipes。這句中的is unconvinced【沒被說服】與題干中的suggests that【暗示】沒法對應，所以要看下一句。下一句中的says跟題干中的suggest that相關，這句引號里的they matter【它們重要】對應的內容有D選項中的they have a deeper significance【它們有更深層的含義】，這句中的they won’t stick unless【除非…就不會留下】，雙重否定表示肯定，對應D選項中的only survive【僅在…情況下才會幸存】，所以答案選D。

Q39

答案

這道題問的是Tehrani舉例的目的。舉例的目的一般是為了證明自己的觀點，一般觀點出現(xiàn)在舉例的前一句。上文最后一句出現(xiàn)了例子Chinese and Japanese versions，我們看前一句發(fā)現(xiàn)but Tehrani points out that，說明Tehrani和前面的人觀點之間是轉折關系，相關的選項有A和D，既然是轉折，那么兩個人的觀點是矛盾的，所以答案選A。

10 Mathias Clasen at Aarhus University in Denmark isn’t surprised by Tehrani s findings.'Habits and morals change,but the things that scare us,and the fact that we seek out entertainment that’s designed to scare us-those are constant,’he says.Clasen believes that scary stories teach us what it feels like to be afraid without having to experience real danger,and so build up resistance to negative emotions.

答案

上文第一句出現(xiàn)了定位詞Mathias Clasen，第三句出現(xiàn)了Clasen believes，所以緊跟其后的內容對應正確選項。最后一句中的afraid和without having to experience real danger【不用經(jīng)歷真正的危險】對應的選項有A。這句中的afraid對應A選項中的fear，這句中的without…real danger對應A選項中的a safe way，這句中的teach us what it feels like對應A選項中的learning to deal with，所以答案是A。
