[求助]BARRON TEST4阅读另2题!谢谢!!

1。test4 第4篇 P332,40题

原文:Information technology is influencing the way many of us live and work today. We use the internet...We use e-mail ...Computers are commonplace in homes and the workplace.

           Althought the number of internet users is growing exponentially each year, most of the world's population does not have access to computers or the Internet. Only 6% of the population in the developing contries are connected to telephone. Athought more that 94% of U.S. hoseholds have a telephone, only 42%have personal computers at home and 26% have internet access. The lack of what most of us would consider a basic communications necessity--the telephone--does not occur just in developing countries. On some Native America reservations only 60% of the residents have a telephone. The move to wireless connections may eliminate the need for telephone lines, but it does not remove the barrier to equipment costs. 

问题:Why does the author mention telephone in paragragh 2?

答案A:To demonstrate that even technology like the telephone is not available to all

          我选的C:To contrast the absence of telephone usage with that of Internet usage

之所以把两段全打出来是因为我觉得联系这两段对做题有帮助,可我怎么看都觉得BARRON给的答案不对.联系1,2段,我认为都在对比telephone和internet.

2。test4 第5篇 P337,56题

原文:With brains proportionately larger than those of reptiles and amphibians, birds generally display very complex behavior. Avian behavior is particularly intricate during breeding seasons, when birds engage in elaborate rituals of courtship.

题目:elaborate的同义词

答案:simple

这道题用排除法做也就只有simple还算对,但很疑惑的是elaborate的本意是"详尽的"和simple正好的相反的.除了用排除法这种解释还有其选simple的解释么?

多谢!

我明白了,我可能是被第一段给迷惑了,单看第二段确实没有什么对比的意思,telephone和computer都应用不够广

在做这种阅读的时候,是不是问哪段就看哪段不用瞎联系啊

第二题我还是不明白..小C同学再解释下吧

虽然你没复习完全,但我能感觉到你的自信!

英语这东西感觉是最重要的,有个好心情再加上英文底子就OK啦~

我现在状态也挺放松的,但是模考对我来说还是必要的,小C同学指的basic materials是什么呢?
