A,nealy 99 percent of...是省略with的独立主格结构,两句话不构成逻辑关系,排除
B,时态:apper发生在过去,但是这99%的物种应该是存续至今的
C,时态
D,of...已经作了定语修饰99%,of them赘余了
E correct
so做省略establish a permanent colony,not but平行
* "extent TO" is unidiomatic; it should be "extent OF".
* "degree THAT" doesn't work. since things happen TO a degree, you have to preserve this preposition; therefore, you have to say "degree TO WHICH".

作为阅读理解来做的conclusion/MBT题
公司拒绝招聘某人,是因为某人测谎仪结果是未知的
结论
A、大多数未知的测谎仪结果,其实反映某人实际上不诚实,反原文,错误
B、测谎仪结果不应该被用在公司招聘,无关
C、未知的测谎仪结果有时对测试者不公,CORRECT(是啊,本来是测谎仪的问题而不是人的问题,当然不公平啦)
D、测谎仪结果不准(有公司以此为标准卡人),反原文,且无关
E、一些招聘者拒绝把测谎仪标准作为结果卡人,同上,反原文
Few if any 如果有的话,也很少
flaw:规则-推广-违背
S说有优势 R说无优势----讨论是否有优势
but in areas where insects congregate IT prevents the mourning gecko from feeding on THEM
it指代house gecko,them指代insects
C,a certain strategy指的是利润最大化,而不是给新技术定价不定最高价。
第一个是为了引出高利润战略对公司的吸引力--公司给新技术定最高价就是为了得到高利润;第二个说第一个行不通,要定不那么高的价才能获得高利润。
注意第一个和第二个虽然行为不同,但目的是一样的。strategy既可以指行为(A/B)也可以指目标(C),D说的是第一个和第二个action是互相支持的,错误;E说的是第一个和第二个goal是互相排斥的,错误。
present X Y = present Y to X
presents a problem a response = presents a response to a problem
to which the argument assesses是修饰response的
BF2就是main conclusion,not support
原文在结论处提出了一个矛盾的点:品牌商品在质量上不占优势,当然定价也不高,为什么还会在市场上占优
A:给出了另外的解释,优势不由价格或质量提供,而是品牌本身就是一种保障
结论:取消关税会导致失业率上升
回到文中,建立了这么一条关系,如果取消关税→农民获利→城市内腰果加工厂原料减少→城市失业率上升
E,农民不获利(前提就是不取消关税)→农民也会进城寻工作→失业率上升
由此可见,无论取消关税与否,对结局事件无任何影响,起到了削弱的作用
If it weren't/hadn't been for …以及其倒装结构were it not for/had it not been
for表示"如果不是……的话"
原文在美元贬值、经济放缓的预期以及预算赤字间建立了联系,要求削弱,就是要削弱这种联系
D,在预算赤字之前,预期就会导致美元贬值
“a possible workshop” is a hoax: I mean, think about it. There can be “a ballet workshop,” “an acting workshop.” How can there be a “possible” workshop? Is “possible” a kind of workshop? It makes no sense. The sentence speaks of a site that was possibly a workshop.
积累:
so much A as B与其说A不如说B
本题考点不是not..but
"You are comparing actions, so you must use "just as."
Between D and E, D is not logically parallel. Remember, you are comparing the actions. You are comparing the increase in earth's rotation to the increase in speed of the skater.
so as to=so that,但是需要注意前者需要保持主语一致,后者不需要
idiom: there were no X's or Y's.
(A) were no Jane Austens or Brontë sisters ("were" works with both items because they're both plural)
(C) was not Jane Austen nor the Brontë sisters (singular "was" doesn't work with plural "sisters")
We can eliminate options C, D, & E because they use a singular verb with the plural Brontë sisters.
There were no Xs or Ys = CORRECT
There were not Xs or Ys = INCORRECT
星星主动取决于自身质量,这是存在一定问题的。星星是否会坍缩成白矮星或黑洞,这一事件才是取决于质量的
第一段 $50,000收取$7500 commission。余下16500的sale price为165000。合计215000。
小数点搞错选了a,很烦
