5题B项only太绝对了,事实上文中并没有任何标志表明这个only,

文中第一句话只是陈述性的说了since the early 1970's, historians have begun to devote serious attention to the working class in the US.

注意,这句话中并没有说Great Depression!!!

倒是到了L7,GD才第一次出现,但这里只是说了they have focused on the GD of the 1930's. 并没有提及B项中的only since the early 1970's.

 

这就是ETS的阴险之处,他把文中不同位置出现的内容混在一起,让我们这些没有仔细看文章或者有时干脆就没有看懂文章的人被套在里面了,xdjm要小心哈!

第五题看到 说K的15％的数据，相比大萧条来说，还是比较谦虚的....就可以反推大萧条要大于15％啊，直接就选A了

dingxiang

第6题答案到底是A还是C啊?

我选的A

因为我觉得第三段后面都在讲mobility

,但是实际上K的意思是

Even when dependent on the same trade, adjoining communities could have dramatically different unemployment rates.

也就是说即使community依赖的是相同的企业, rates 仍然会有很大不同

不就是说明在哪里live/work对于一个人是否失业没有决定么?

顶楼上，我也有相同的困惑

回楼上的，第6题III可以定位在这里，尤其是后一句

Yet the impact of unemployment on a specific class was not always the same. Even when dependent on the same trade, adjoining communities could have dramatically different unemployment rates. Keyssar uses these differential rates to help explain a phenomenon that has puzzled historians—the startlingly high rate of geographical mobility in the nineteenth-century United States.

说的不就是地方的失业率不同就可以解释美国19世纪地区高流动性的原因吗？

失业的人们总是迁徙到其他失业率低的地方-》所以人员流动性大-》各地失业率也不同

不一定是这样的因果关系，不过可以这样推理

欢迎讨论

我想问问第8题，应该怎样定位题中对应的Keyssar’s findings，哪位NN帮忙说一下。

Which of the following, if true, would most strongly support Keyssar’s findings as they are described by the author?

(A) Boston, Massachusetts, and Quincy, Massachusetts, adjoining communities, had a higher rate of unemployment for working-class people in 1870 than in 1890.

(B) White-collar professionals such as attorneys had as much trouble as day laborers in maintaining a steady level of employment throughout the period 1870-1920.

(C) Working-class women living in Cambridge, Massachusetts, were more likely than working-class men living in Cambridge to be unemployed for some period of time during the year 1873.

(D) In the 1890’s, shoe-factory workers moved away in large numbers from Chelmsford, Massachusetts, where shoe factories were being replaced by other industries, to adjoining West Chelmsford, where the shoe industry flourished.（D）

(E) In the late nineteenth century, workers of all classes in Massachusetts were more likely than workers of all classes in other states to move their place of residence from one location to another within the state.

回楼上 infer题很不好定位的 我当时做文章的时候发现最后一段提出来说 explain了一个问题 not..nor..but...这些都是考点的高频词 我就想后面一定有题出现 结果到了7题还没有 我当时想不可能吧 这么高频的考点 结果到了第8题就出现了

PS.不是NN啊

同样需求infer题的定位方法？？

刚想通了第六题Ⅱ选项,这里顺便整理下方便后人.

从第三段结构入手,首先K提出了一系列值得研究的对象:"Keyssar also scrutinizes unemployment patterns according to skill level, ethnicity, race, age, class, and gender. "

接着K验证了class这个东西是对unemployment rate产生重要影响"He finds that rates of joblessness differed primarily according to class"

再着K进一步说明"Yet the impact of unemployment on a specific class was not always the same. Even when dependent onthe same trade, adjoining communities could have dramatically
     different unemployment rates."
    这里出现了一个转折,K提出了相同class也会因所处社会的不同而出现unemployment rate极大不同.从而可以解释后面一些历史迷团.

清楚这三层结构以后,对6的三个选项也就不难判断了.

刚开始的时候把adjoining理解成了same的意思，觉得毗邻的总应该是差不多吧。晕。。。
