Nutmeg–a valuable spice
肉豆蔻壟斷地位的更迭
劍橋雅思15 Test1 Passage1閱讀答案解析
第1題答案:oval
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第1段:The tree is thickly branched with dense foliage of tough,dark green oval leaves
答案解析:對(duì)肉豆蔻樹(shù)木和果實(shí)的介紹主要集中在第1段,根據(jù)leaves定位到這句話。雖然一些同學(xué)可能不知道oval有橢圓形的意思,但我們?nèi)匀豢梢愿鶕?jù)排除法做出題目。首先從題干推測(cè)空上應(yīng)該填一個(gè)形容詞,由此帥選出dense,tough,dark,green和oval,前四個(gè)相信大家都認(rèn)識(shí),肯定不表示形狀,因此答案只能是oval。
第2題答案:husk
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第1段:The fruit is encased in a fleshy husk.When the fruit is ripe,this husk splits into two halves along a ridge running the length of the fruit.
答案解析:根據(jù)ripe定位到這句話。題干問(wèn)的是什么包裹著果實(shí),并且在成熟的時(shí)候打開(kāi)。surrounds與is encased對(duì)應(yīng),breaks open與splits對(duì)應(yīng),根據(jù)修飾關(guān)系確定答案為husk。
第3題答案:seed
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第1段:These are the sources of the two spices nutmeg and mace,the former being produced from the dried seed and the latter from the aril.
答案解析:第1段結(jié)尾提到,肉豆蔻來(lái)自干燥后的種子,因此確定答案為seed。
第4題答案:mace
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第1段:These are the sources of the two spices nutmeg and mace,the former being produced from the dried seed and the latter from the aril.
答案解析:同樣是第1段的最后一句話,干燥后的種子制成肉豆蔻,子衣制成肉豆蔻種衣。由此確定答案為mace。
第5題答案:FALSE
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第2段:in the Middle Ages…they never revealed the exact location of the source of this extremely valuable commodity.
答案解析:第2段中提到,“中世紀(jì)時(shí),阿拉伯人從來(lái)都沒(méi)有透露過(guò)這一價(jià)值極高的商品的準(zhǔn)確來(lái)源”。也就是說(shuō),并沒(méi)有什么歐洲人知道肉豆蔻的生長(zhǎng)地。題干描述與此相反,因此判斷答案為FALSE。
第6題答案:NOT GIVEN
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第4段:In 1602,Dutch merchants founded the VOC
答案解析:原文中只是提到,“1602年荷蘭商人成立了VOC”,至于它之前有沒(méi)有類似的公司則沒(méi)有進(jìn)行說(shuō)明。題干中first在原文中找不到對(duì)應(yīng),但也找不到與此相反或沖突的地方,因此判斷答案為NOT GIVEN。
第7題答案:TRUE
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第5段:The Dutch now had a monopoly over the nutmeg trade which would last for another century.
答案解析:第5段提到:在與英國(guó)人簽訂協(xié)議之后,“荷蘭人現(xiàn)在壟斷了肉豆蔻貿(mào)易,這種壟斷地位繼續(xù)維持了一個(gè)世紀(jì)”。而且前面也提到,英國(guó)人文章來(lái)自 雅思將自己控制的小島交給了荷蘭人。即荷蘭人控制了所有生長(zhǎng)肉豆蔻的島嶼,由此判斷答案為TRUE。
第8題答案:Arabs
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第2段:Throughout this period,the Arabs were the exclusive importers of the spice to Europe.
答案解析:根據(jù)middle ages定位到第2段。題干問(wèn)的是在這期間,誰(shuí)將肉豆蔻帶往歐洲。importers與brought對(duì)應(yīng),確定答案為Arabs
第9題答案:plague
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第4段:At the same time,thousands of people across Europe were dying of the plague,a highly contagious and deadly disease.
答案解析:根據(jù)disease定位到第4段的中部,題干問(wèn)這種疾病被稱為什么。原文中用同位語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)表達(dá)known as的含義,由此鎖定答案為plague。
第10題答案:lime
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第5段:In addition,all exported nutmeg was covered with lime to make sure there was no chance a fertile seed which could be grown elsewhere would leave the islands.
答案解析:根據(jù)上面兩行的已知信息定位到第5段的中部。題干問(wèn)的是“將…放在肉豆蔻上”。其中put…on與cover對(duì)應(yīng),由此確定答案為lime。
第11題答案:Run
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第5段:there was only one obstacle to Dutch domination.One of the Banda Islands,a sliver of land called Run
答案解析:文中曾反復(fù)多次提到該島嶼名,題干也沒(méi)有什么難理解的地方,很容易鎖定答案。
第12題答案:Mauritius
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第6段:Then,in 1770,a Frenchman named Pierre Poivre successfully smuggled nutmeg plants to safety in Mauritius
答案解析:根據(jù)1770年定位到第6段的第一句話,題干問(wèn)的是“肉豆蔻植株被秘密帶到哪里”。一些同學(xué)可能會(huì)不經(jīng)思考的選擇safety作為答案。但單獨(dú)safety無(wú)法表示地點(diǎn)的含義(原文中翻譯成安全地帶也要借助后面的內(nèi)容),填上去語(yǔ)義不合適,因此選擇Mauritius。
第13題答案:tsunami
對(duì)應(yīng)原文:第6段:in 1778,a volcanic eruption in the Banda region caused a tsunami that wiped out half the nutmeg groves.
答案解析:根據(jù)1778定位到這句話。destroyed與wiped out同義替換,由此確定答案為tsunami。部分同學(xué)可能認(rèn)為是火山爆發(fā)引發(fā)了海嘯,然后海嘯又摧毀了肉豆蔻植株,所以最根本的原因應(yīng)該是火山爆發(fā)才是。但這種選擇因果的題目答案一般都是直接原因,而非最初的誘發(fā)因素,因此排除volcanic eruption。
