in part

没办法1987

文章说：

Since most samurai had been reduced to idleness by years of peace, encouraged to engage in scholarship and martial exercises or to perform administrative tasks that took little time, it is not surprising that their tastes and habits grew expensive.

说明作者是有点同情的。。。

为什么第3题选B我觉得是对他们的讽刺，才对啊。

文章第二段开头：It was difficult for individual samurai overlords to increase their income because the amount of rice that farmers could be made to pay in taxes was not unlimited，注意体会difficult，表达出作者的意思：
samurai想提高income，但苦于无法。

所以作者是同情

既是不知道为什么选B

可以排除：

A： warmly apporving 作者没同意

C bitterly disappointed 程度过大

D E都是程度过大

第三题：
a misfortune like a fire or flood, bringing an increase in expenses or a drop in revenue, .

文章在开头说了shogun和samurai的financial stress是beyond the overlords’ control. 从这里也可以看出作者对他们的处境是同情的.

注意选项与材料的对应。正确选项， The difficulty of increasing government income by other means 。而材料说， This left the shoguns only commerce as a potential source of government income.
注意government income的重复

态度题，就根据题目要求的那几行来揣测。
Since most samurai had been reduced to idleness by years of peace, encouraged to engage in scholarship and martial exercises or to perform administrative tasks
that took little time, it is not surprising that their tastes and habits grew
expensive.
材料说，他们的tasks that took little time, it is not surprising……
想象一下语气：他们因为和平，没事干了，被鼓励去做那些不怎么花时间的S/M/A，所以……不会令人惊讶
感觉reduce to idleness 也是同情的描写手法啊
不过，我觉得，其他选项太极端，排除即可。因为材料明明那么难揣测态度，答案怎么会是那么强烈的态度呢。
