【解析】這是一道具體細節題，根據題干關鍵詞職業教育對孩子存在的偏見可定位至

第四段最后一句，意思是“在很多職業化教育的學校中，有這樣一種老套的思想，那就是，

職業教育是針對那些在學術上不能成功的那些孩子的。〃根據這句話可確定答案就是Bare

A.willbringtheUSclosertoothercountries

B.willaccelerateglobalenvironmentalchange

C.isnotreallyencouragedbytheUSgovernment

D.isnotcompetitiveenoughmithregardtoitscost

26.【答案】Cfalling

【解析】這是一道詞義句意題，要想知道plummeting的意思，首先要回到原文找線

索，即plummeting所在的句子以及上下句，由原文可知，plummeting所在句子是在說現在

例如風能和太陽能這樣的可再生資源的價格的問題，plummeling是修飾可再生資源的價格

的，接著二段最后一句就在用具體數字來證明可再生資源的本錢在下降，如太陽能本錢下降

了百分之八十，風能也降到三分之一，由此可知，可再生資源的本錢在下降，plummeting

的含義是下降的意思。所以選擇Cfallingo

27.【答案】Aisprogressingnotably

【解析】

28.【答案】Awindisawidelyusedenergysource

【解析】這是一道細節推斷題，根據題干關鍵詞定位至第四段第三句，在愛荷華州，

風力渦輪機點綴著這個州并提供了此州百分之三十六的電能，并且還吸引了像微軟這樣的科

技巨頭公司。因此可判斷，在愛荷華州，風能是一種廣泛使用的能源。所以答案是A。

29.【答案】Citscontinuoussupplyisbecomingareality

【解析】這是一道是非細節題，根據題干給出的段落位置，5-6兩段和主題詞clean

energy,回到原文的第5-6段，這兩段都不長，第五段出現了But后講到電池容量的提升a

boostinthestorage,與A選項不符，并不是因果關系，故排除；B選項說道廣泛用在制

造業也不符合原文第六段第一句;而D選項和原文第六段最后一句是語義相反的，故也排除；

正確選項C是和這句話語義一致的，也是和全文主題一致的，故為正確答案。

30.【答案】CisnotreallyencouragedbytheUSgovernment

【解析】

【解析】

33.【答案】[D]cannotkeeppacewiththechangingmarket

【解析】面，相比于數據經濟變化的速度，此法案開展是非常緩慢的"。由此可知，該法案

跟不上當前市場變化的步伐。因此D項為正確答案。

34.【答案】[D]theservicesarepaidforbyadvertisers.

【解析】根據題目中的because可確定為因果細節題。題干中的信息出現在第三段后半局

部，是題目中的原詞competitionlawaspresentlyinterpreted,而原因在其后面的句

子。下文寫到，theusersoftheirservicesarenot,讀到這里的not,一定要找而是

誰。繼續讀下一句，Thatwouldbethepeoplewhobuyadvertisingfromthem…，與選

項對應，可得出[D]theservicssarepaidforbyadvertisers(>

35.【答案】[D]therelationshipbetweendigitalgiantsandtheirusers.

【解析】根據題目中isusedtoillustrate可判斷為例證題，要找到theantsanalogy

論據所證明的論點；論點在論據之前，因此先找到論據theantsanalogy,再找到論據前

的論點句。所以此題定位到最后一段的第一句，Theproduct??,isdata,andwe…convert

ourlivestodata…。此句中，data即digitalgiants,we即users。因此答案為[D]

therelationshipbetweendigitalgiantsandtheirusers.

【解析】

38.【答案】[D]anessentialfactorinaccomplishinganywork.

【解析】根據題目Newport得出此題目為細節題中的文中人物觀點題。根據題干中的

anessentialfactorinaccomplishinganyworko

39.【答案】[A]canbringaooutgreaterefficiency.

【解析】根據題目中的Pillaybelieves可得出此題目為細節題中的文中人物觀點題型。

根據題目中的信息，可以定位到倒數第二段最后一句，明確指出theytendtobemore

efficiento然后對應選項得出[A]canbringaboutgreaterefficiencyo

40.【答案】[A]approachestogettingmoredoneinlesstine.

【解析】根據題目的mainlyabout可知為文章主旨題，首先可以通過題目的復現內容找與

文章主旨有關的詞匯，題目中反復出現了focus內容，可判斷與人們的注意力有。其次，文

章主旨一般在開篇第一段或第二段會出現，第一段引用CalNewport的觀點指出focus

withoutdistraction話題，第二段就提到了主題approachestomasteringthdartofdeep

work,此刻主題已明確，并且第四段有明顯的證明anotherapproach>>所以此題選[A]

approachestogettingmoredoneinlesstime。
