　　READING PASSAGE 1

　　You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-13, which are based on Reading Passage 1 below.

　　Let’s Go Bats

　　A Bats have a problem: how to find their way around in the dark. They hunt at night, and cannot use light to help them find prey and avoid obstacles. You might say that this is a problem of their own making, one that they could avoid simply by changing their habits and hunting by day. But the daytime economy is already heavily exploited by other creatures such as birds. Given that there is a living to be made at night, and given that alternative daytime trades are thoroughly occupied, natural selection has favoured bats that make a go of the night-hunting trade. It is probable that the nocturnal trades go way back in the ancestry of all mammals. In the time when the dinosaurs dominated the daytime economy, our mammalian ancestors probably only managed to survive at all because they found ways of scraping a living at night. Only after the mysterious mass extinction of the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago were our ancestors able to emerge into the daylight in any substantial numbers.

　　B Bats have an engineering problem: how to find their way and find their prey in the absence of light. Bats are not the only creatures to face this difficulty today. Obviously the night-flying insects that they prey on must find their way about somehow. Deep-sea fish and whales have little or no light by day or by night. Fish and dolphins that live in extremely muddy water cannot see because, although there is light, it is obstructed and scattered by the dirt in the water. Plenty of other modern animals make their living in conditions where seeing is difficult or impossible.

　　C Given the questions of how to manoeuvre in the dark, what solutions might an engineer consider? The first one that might occur to him is to manufacture light, to use a lantern or a searchlight. Fireflies and some fish (usually with the help of bacteria) have the power to manufacture their own light, but the process seems to consume a large amount of energy. Fireflies use their light for attracting mates. This doesn’t require a prohibitive amount of energy: a male’s tiny pinprick of light can be seen by a female from some distance on a dark night, since her eyes are exposed directly to the light source itself. However, using light to find one’s own way around requires vastly more energy, since the eyes have to detect the tiny fraction of the light that bounces off each part of the scene. The light source must therefore be immensely brighter if it is to be used as a headlight to illuminate the path, than if it is to be used as a signal to others. In any event, whether or not the reason is the energy expense, it seems to be the case that, with the possible exception of some weird deep-sea fish, no animal apart from man uses manufactured light to find its way about.

　　D What else might the engineer think of? Well, blind humans sometimes seem to have an uncanny sense of obstacles in their path. It has been given the name ‘facial vision’, because blind people have reported that it feels a bit like the sense of touch, on the face. One report tells of a totally blind boy who could ride his tricycle at good speed round the block near his home, using facial vision. Experiments showed that, in fact, facial vision is nothing to do with touch or the front of the face, although the sensation may be referred to the front of the face, like the referred pain in a phantom limb. The sensation of facial vision, it turns out, really goes in through the ears. Blind people, without even being aware of the fact, are actually using echoes of their own footsteps and of other sounds, to sense the presence of obstacles. Before this was discovered, engineers had already built instruments to exploit the principle, for example to measure the depth of the sea under a ship. After this technique had been invented, it was only a matter of time before weapons designers adapted it for the detection of submarines. Both sides in the Second World War relied heavily on these devices, under such codenames as Asdic (British) and Sonar (American), as well as Radar (American) or RDF (British), which uses radio echoes rather than sound echoes.

　　E The Sonar and Radar pioneers didn’t know it then, but all the world now knows that bats, or rather natural selection working on bats, had perfected the system tens of millions of years earlier, and their ‘radar’ achieves feats of detection and navigation that would strike an engineer dumb with admiration. It is technically incorrect to talk about bat ‘radar’, since they do not use radio waves. It is sonar. But the underlying mathematical theories of radar and sonar are very similar, and much of our scientific understanding of the details of what bats are doing has come from applying radar theory to them. The American zoologist Donald Griffin, who was largely responsible for the discovery of sonar in bats, coined the term ‘echolocation’ to cover both sonar and radar, whether used by animals or by human instruments.

　　MAKING EVERYDROP COUNT

　　A The history of human civilisation is entwined with the history of the ways we have learned to manipulate water resources. As towns gradually expanded, water was brought from increasingly remote sources, leading to sophisticated engineering efforts such as dams and aqueducts. At the height of the Roman Empire, nine major systems, with an innovative layout of pipes and well-built sewers, supplied the occupants of Rome with as much water per person as is provided in many parts of the industrial world today.

　　B During the industrial revolution and population explosion of the 19th and 20th centuries, the demand for water rose dramatically. Unprecedented construction of tens of thousands of monumental engineering projects designed to control floods, protect clean water supplies, and provide water for irrigation and hydropower brought great benefits to hundreds of millions of people. Food production has kept pace with soaring populations mainly because of the expansion of artificial irrigation systems that make possible the growth of 40 % of the world’s food. Nearly one fifth of all the electricity generated worldwide is produced by turbines spun by the power of falling water.

　　C Yet there is a dark side to this picture: despite our progress, half of the world’s population still suffers, with water services inferior to those available to the ancient Greeks and Romans. As the United Nations report on access to water reiterated in November 2001, more than one billion people lack access to clean drinking water; some two and a half billion do not have adequate sanitation services. Preventable water-related diseases kill an estimated 10,000 to 20,000 children every day, and the latest evidence suggests that we are falling behind in efforts to solve these problems.

　　D The consequences of our water policies extend beyond jeopardising human health. Tens of millions of people have been forced to move from their homes — often with little warning or compensation — to make way for the reservoirs behind dams. More than 20 % of all freshwater fish species are now threatened or endangered because dams and water withdrawals have destroyed the free-flowing river ecosystems where they thrive. Certain irrigation practices degrade soil quality and reduce agricultural productivity. Groundwater aquifers_are being pumped down faster than they are naturally replenished in parts of India, China, the USA and elsewhere. And disputes over shared water resources have led to violence and continue to raise local, national and even international tensions.

　　_underground stores of water

　　E At the outset of the new millennium, however, the way resource planners think about water is beginning to change. The focus is slowly shifting back to the provision of basic human and environmental needs as top priority — ensuring ‘some for all,’ instead of ‘more for some’. Some water experts are now demanding that existing infrastructure be used in smarter ways rather than building new facilities, which is increasingly considered the option of last, not first, resort. This shift in philosophy has not been universally accepted, and it comes with strong opposition from some established water organisations. Nevertheless, it may be the only way to address successfully the pressing problems of providing everyone with clean water to drink, adequate water to grow food and a life free from preventable water-related illness.

　　F Fortunately — and unexpectedly — the demand for water is not rising as rapidly as some predicted. As a result, the pressure to build new water infrastructures has diminished over the past two decades. Although population, industrial output and economic productivity have continued to soar in developed nations, the rate at which people withdraw water from aquifers, rivers and lakes has slowed. And in a few parts of the world, demand has actually fallen.

　　G What explains this remarkable turn of events? Two factors: people have figured out how to use water more efficiently, and communities are rethinking their priorities for water use. Throughout the first three-quarters of the 20th century, the quantity of freshwater consumed per person doubled on average; in the USA, water withdrawals increased tenfold while the population quadrupled. But since 1980, the amount of water consumed per person has actually decreased, thanks to a range of new technologies that help to conserve water in homes and industry. In 1965, for instance, Japan used approximately 13 million gallons_of water to produce $1 million of commercial output; by 1989 this had dropped to 3.5 million gallons (even accounting for inflation) — almost a quadrupling of water productivity. In the USA, water withdrawals have fallen by more than 20 % from their peak in 1980.

　　H On the other hand, dams, aqueducts and other kinds of infrastructure will still have to be built, particularly in developing countries where basic human needs have not been met. But such projects must be built to higher specifications and with more accountability to local people and their environment than in the past. And even in regions where new projects seem warranted, we must find ways to meet demands with fewer resources, respecting ecological criteria and to a smaller budget.

　　Questions 21-26

　　Do the following statements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 2?

　　In boxes 21-26 on your answer sheet, write

　　YES if the statement agrees with the claims of the writer

　　NO if the statement contradicts the claims of the writer

　　NOT GIVEN if it is impossible to say what the writer thinks about this

　　21 Water use per person is higher in the industrial world than it was in Ancient Rome.

　　22 Feeding increasing populations is possible due primarily to improved irrigation systems.

　　23 Modern water systems imitate those of the ancient Greeks and Romans.

　　24 Industrial growth is increasing the overall demand for water.

　　25 Modern technologies have led to a reduction in domestic water consumption.

　　26 In the future, governments should maintain ownership of water infrastructures.

　　READING PASSAGE 3

　　You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 27-40, which are based on Reading Passage 3 below.

　　EDUCATING PSYCHE

　　Educating Psyche by Bernie Neville is a book which looks at radical new approaches to learning, describing the effects of emotion, imagination and the unconscious on learning. One theory discussed in the book is that proposed by George Lozanov, which focuses on the power of suggestion.

　　Lozanov’s instructional technique is based on the evidence that the connections made in the brain through unconscious processing (which he calls non-specific mental reactivity) are more durable than those made through conscious processing. Besides the laboratory evidence for this, we know from our experience that we often remember what we have perceived peripherally, long after we have forgotten what we set out to learn. If we think of a book we studied months or years ago, we will find it easier to recall peripheral details — the colour, the binding, the typeface, the table at the library where we sat while studying it — than the content on which we were concentrating. If we think of a lecture we listened to with great concentration, we will recall the lecturer’s appearance and mannerisms, our place in the auditorium, the failure of the air-conditioning, much more easily than the ideas we went to learn. Even if these peripheral details are a bit elusive, they come back readily in hypnosis or when we relive the event imaginatively, as in psychodrama. The details of the content of the lecture, on the other hand, seem to have gone forever.

　　This phenomenon can be partly attributed to the common counterproductive approach to study (making extreme efforts to memorise, tensing muscles, inducing fatigue), but it also simply reflects the way the brain functions. Lozanov therefore made indirect instruction (suggestion) central to his teaching system. In suggestopedia, as he called his method, consciousness is shifted away from the curriculum to focus on something peripheral. The curriculum then becomes peripheral and is dealt with by the reserve capacity of the brain.

　　The suggestopedic approach to foreign language learning provides a good illustration. In its most recent variant (1980), it consists of the reading of vocabulary and text while the class is listening to music. The first session is in two parts. In the first part, the music is classical (Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms) and the teacher reads the text slowly and solemnly, with attention to the dynamics of the music. The students follow the text in their books. This is followed by several minutes of silence. In the second part, they listen to baroque music (Bach, Corelli, Handel) while the teacher reads the text in a normal speaking voice. During this time they have their books closed. During the whole of this session, their attention is passive; they listen to the music but make no attempt to learn the material.

　　Beforehand, the students have been carefully prepared for the language learning experience. Through meeting with the staff and satisfied students they develop the expectation that learning will be easy and pleasant and that they will successfully learn several hundred words of the foreign language during the class. In a preliminary talk, the teacher introduces them to the material to be covered, but does not ‘teach’ it. Likewise, the students are instructed not to try to learn it during this introduction.

　　Some hours after the two-part session, there is a follow-up class at which the students are stimulated to recall the material presented. Once again the approach is indirect. The students do not focus their attention on trying to remember the vocabulary, but focus on using the language to communicate (e.g. through games or improvised dramatisations). Such methods are not unusual in language teaching. What is distinctive in the suggestopedic method is that they are devoted entirely to assisting recall. The ‘learning’ of the material is assumed to be automatic and effortless, accomplished while listening to music. The teacher’s task is to assist the students to apply what they have learned paraconsciously, and in doing so to make it easily accessible to consciousness. Another difference from conventional teaching is the evidence that students can regularly learn 1000 new words of a foreign language during a suggestopedic session, as well as grammar and idiom.

　　Lozanov experimented with teaching by direct suggestion during sleep, hypnosis and trance states, but found such procedures unnecessary. Hypnosis, yoga, Silva mind-control, religious ceremonies and faith healing are all associated with successful suggestion, but none of their techniques seem to be essential to it. Such rituals may be seen as placebos. Lozanov acknowledges that the ritual surrounding suggestion in his own system is also a placebo, but maintains that without such a placebo people are unable or afraid to tap the reserve capacity of their brains. Like any placebo, it must be dispensed with authority to be effective. Just as a doctor calls on the full power of autocratic suggestion by insisting that the patient take precisely this white capsule precisely three times a day before meals, Lozanov is categoric in insisting that the suggestopedic session be conducted exactly in the manner designated, by trained and accredited suggestopedic teachers.

　　While suggestopedia has gained some notoriety through success in the teaching of modern languages, few teachers are able to emulate the spectacular results of Lozanov and his associates. We can, perhaps, attribute mediocre results to an inadequate placebo effect. The students have not developed the appropriate mind set. They are often not motivated to learn through this method. They do not have enough ‘faith’. They do not see it as ‘real teaching’, especially as it does not seem to involve the ‘work’ they have learned to believe is essential to learning.

　　走近蝙蝠

　　A在黑暗中如何找到方向是蝙蝠面臨的一大問題。它們在夜間捕食，而且無法利用光搜尋獵物或躲避障礙物。也許你會說它們天生就是這樣的，只要改變生活習(xí)性在白天出來捕食就可以了。但事實上白天的獵物已經(jīng)被鳥類開發(fā)殆盡。鑒于有些生物要在夜間謀生，并且白天的獵物資源都已經(jīng)被占用，自然選擇最終使蝙蝠們在夜間捕獵行當(dāng)里大顯身手。夜間狩獵群體的出現(xiàn)可能要追溯到哺乳動物的先祖。在恐龍統(tǒng)治地球白晝的時代，我們的哺乳動物祖先只能想方設(shè)法在夜間求得一線生機。直到六千五百萬年前，恐龍神秘地大規(guī)模滅絕之后，我們的祖先才敢成群結(jié)隊地在大白天出沒。

　　B蝙蝠面臨這一個“工程”方面的問題：那就是在沒有光線的情況下如何辨識方向并尋找獵物。蝙蝠不是當(dāng)今世界上唯一面臨此問題的物種。顯而易見，蝙蝠所捕食的夜間昆蟲肯定能以某種方式在黑暗中找到方向。深海魚類、鯨等物種無論是白天還是黑夜都幾乎見不到任何光線。生活在渾濁水域中的負(fù)和海豚也看不見，因為即使有光線，也被水中的淤泥阻擋分散開了?，F(xiàn)代的許多物種都生活在很難見到光線或者完全黑暗的環(huán)境中。

　　C關(guān)于如何在黑暗中巧妙移動這個問題，工程師們會給出怎樣的答案呢?第一個能想到的辦法可能就是要制造光線了，比如用燈籠或者探照燈。螢火蟲和某些魚類可以自己制造光亮(通常是在細(xì)菌的幫助下)，但這一過程要耗費很多能能量。螢火蟲用光線吸引配偶，而這一過程并不需要很多能量。暗夜中，雌性螢火蟲遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)地就可以看見雄性螢火蟲微小的光芒，因為雌性的眼睛就直接暴露在光源內(nèi)。然而利用自身的光線尋找方向卻要耗費更多能量，因為此時生物的眼睛需要探測到通過物體反射回來的微弱光芒。如果要作為燈光來照亮道路的話，就要求光源比作為信號燈時明亮許多，無論是不是能設(shè)消耗的緣故，事實是，除了一些深海大怪魚之外，絕沒有其他任何一種生物像人類這樣自己制造光源來找尋方向。

　　D工程師們還能想到什么呢?比如盲人，他們好像對路上的障礙有著不可思議的直覺。人們把這叫做“面感視覺”，因為據(jù)盲人說感覺到有障礙物的時候就像臉部被觸摸一樣。一則報道稱一位完全失明的男孩能憑借面感視覺繞著附近街區(qū)快速騎三輪車實驗表明面感視覺實際上與“感”和“面”沒有任何關(guān)系，盡管這種感覺可能被認(rèn)為源自面部正前方，正如幻肢中的牽涉性痛感一樣。事實上，面感視覺是通過耳朵傳輸?shù)摹１M管盲人并沒有意識到這一點，但實際生活中他們的確在運用自己的步伐以及其他聲苦的回聲來感覺路上障礙物的存在這個事實沒有被發(fā)觀之前，其實工程師們已經(jīng)利用這條原理制造了很多設(shè)備，比如用回聲來測量船底海洋的深度。在這項技術(shù)發(fā)明之后，武器制造者很快就將其改良來偵測潛水艇。二戰(zhàn)期間，交戰(zhàn)雙方都充分運用了這些設(shè)備，代號分別是英國的Asdic和美國的Sonar以及美國的Radar或是英國的 RDF，后兩者使用了雷達(dá)回聲技術(shù)而非聲波回聲技術(shù)。

　　E 當(dāng)時的雷達(dá)聲吶技術(shù)先驅(qū)們毫不知情，但現(xiàn)在所有人都明白了正是蝙蝠，或者說是自然選擇在蝙蝠身上鬼斧神工，早在幾百萬年前就已經(jīng)使這種技術(shù)達(dá)到完美境界，而蝙蝠的“雷達(dá)”在探測及導(dǎo)航方面取得的完美成果足以讓人類工程師佩服到啞口無言。從技術(shù)角度講，說蝙蝠有雷達(dá)功能是不準(zhǔn)確的，因為它們并沒有運用無線電波，而只是運用了聲吶系統(tǒng)。但實際上雷達(dá)和聲吶的基本原理是非常相似的，而且大多數(shù)關(guān)于蝙蝠行為細(xì)節(jié)的科學(xué)理解都是利用雷達(dá)理論完成的。美國動物學(xué)家Donald Griffin教授第一個發(fā)現(xiàn)蝙蝠利用聲吶技術(shù)，由此，他創(chuàng)造出了一個新的詞匯：回聲定位。這個詞涵蓋了動物和人類所利用的雷達(dá)及聲吶系統(tǒng)。

　　TEST 1 PASSAGE 2 參考譯文：

　　節(jié)約每滴水

　　A人類的文明史總是與學(xué)習(xí)利用水資源的歷史交織在一起的。隨著城鎮(zhèn)規(guī)模的不斷擴大，水被從遙遠(yuǎn)的源頭引流到城鎮(zhèn)，這促成了水壩和水渠等復(fù)雜工程的修建。在羅馬帝國鼎盛時期，人們修建了9條主要水利系統(tǒng)，其疏水管道和污水管道均以革新的方式鋪設(shè)，為城區(qū)居民提供用水。當(dāng)時羅馬城內(nèi)居民人均用水量和現(xiàn)今工業(yè)社會很多地區(qū)的人均用水量相當(dāng)。

　　B 在19世紀(jì)和20世紀(jì)工業(yè)革命及人口擴張時期，水的需求量集聚增長。此時，出現(xiàn)了史無前例的大型水利工程：這些數(shù)以萬計的水利工程旨在防洪，保證清潔水資源的供應(yīng)，提供足夠的水用于農(nóng)田灌溉和水力發(fā)電，這造福了上千萬人。食品供應(yīng)能跟上人口劇增主要是由于人工灌溉系統(tǒng)的增長使得世界糧食產(chǎn)量提高了40%。世界上五分之一的電都是通過水力推動渦輪機而產(chǎn)生的。

　　C 當(dāng)然我們也要看到事情不足的一面：雖然我們?nèi)〉昧诉M(jìn)步，但世界上仍有一半的人口享受的供水服務(wù)還比不上古希臘和古羅馬時期。正如聯(lián)合國2001年9月在關(guān)于飲用水權(quán)利的報告中指出的那樣：全世界仍然有超過10億的人口無法獲得干凈的飲用水，25億人缺乏充足的衛(wèi)生設(shè)施。每天有1~2萬名兒童死于與水相關(guān)的各種可預(yù)防疾病，而最新證據(jù)表明我們解決上述問題的力度還遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠。

　　D我們水資源政策的后果遠(yuǎn)非僅僅危及人類健康那么簡單，為了修建大壩和水庫，上千萬人在未被告知或補償?shù)那闆r下被迫背井離鄉(xiāng)。超過20%的淡水魚類現(xiàn)在瀕臨威脅或是瀕臨滅絕，原因是修建水庫及水資源開采破壞了它們繁衍生息的天然河流生態(tài)系統(tǒng)。有些灌溉系統(tǒng)破壞了土壤的質(zhì)量，從而導(dǎo)致農(nóng)業(yè)產(chǎn)量下降。在印度、中閏、美國的某些地區(qū)以及世界其他地方，地表水含水層正在快速下降，下降的速度已經(jīng)超出了它們自我更新和補充的能力。而關(guān)于水資源如何合理分配的爭議也在不斷導(dǎo)致暴力事件的出現(xiàn)，從而加劇了地區(qū)、國家乃至國際間的緊張局勢。

　　E然而，新千年伊始，資源規(guī)劃者關(guān)于水資源的思路開始有了改變。焦點慢慢轉(zhuǎn)回到了保證基本水資源供應(yīng)和滿足環(huán)保需要這兩大當(dāng)務(wù)之急上，將過去“少部分人先用起來”的水資源政策變成了現(xiàn)在的“人人有水用”政策。一些水力專家強調(diào)現(xiàn)有的水力設(shè)施應(yīng)該更好地被利用起來，而不是再建新項目——新建水力項目應(yīng)該被作為最后一根救命稻草而不是第一要務(wù)。這種觀念上的轉(zhuǎn)變并沒有被普遍接受，相反卻遭到了很多水利建設(shè)部門的強烈反對。然而，也許這正是能夠成功解決燃眉之急的唯一出路，確保每個人都有純凈水可喝，有充足的水源用于農(nóng)業(yè)種植，以使人們面授各種與水相關(guān)病癥的困擾。

　　F 出人意料的是，人們對水的需求量所幸并沒有像某些人預(yù)測的那樣劇增。因此過去20年中，建設(shè)新水利項目的壓力也隨之漸漸消退。盡管在發(fā)達(dá)國家，人口仍然急劇膨脹，工業(yè)和經(jīng)濟依然高速發(fā)展，但人們開采地下水和地表水的速度卻減緩了下來。在全球某些地區(qū)，人們對水資源的需求量甚至下降了。

　　G 這個顯著的轉(zhuǎn)變究竟該如何解決呢?我想大致有兩個因素：其一，人們已經(jīng)懂得如何更有效的利用水資源，社會各界也在重新思考各自用水的優(yōu)先權(quán)。在20實際的前75年間，人均用水量增加了一倍。在美國，人口增長了4倍，而用水量竟然翻了10倍。但自從1980年以來，人均用水量下降了，這主要得益于一系列新技術(shù)在家庭及工業(yè)節(jié)水方面的作用。例如，字1965年，日本要用1300萬加侖的水才能產(chǎn)出100萬美元的商業(yè)價值，而截至到1989年，就算算上了通貨膨脹，只用350萬加侖的水就足以產(chǎn)出相同的商業(yè)價值了，這幾乎相當(dāng)于原來產(chǎn)出的4倍。在美國，水資源的使用已經(jīng)從80年代的頂峰時期下降了20%。

　　H 另一方面，水庫、引水渠以及其他水利設(shè)施還是需要休假的，特別是在發(fā)展中國家基本水資源仍不能保證供應(yīng)的地區(qū)。但與過去相比，這些水利設(shè)施的建設(shè)一定要更加規(guī)范化，要對當(dāng)?shù)氐娜嗣龀龈蛹?xì)致的說明，同時還需要考慮環(huán)保的要求。即使既定地區(qū)水利工程建設(shè)似乎已得到保證，我們也要想辦法用較少的資源滿足較多需求，保護(hù)當(dāng)?shù)厣鷳B(tài)，并做到少花錢、多辦事。

　　TEST 1 PASSAGE 3 參考譯文：

　　暗示教學(xué)法

　　Bernie Neville的《暗示教學(xué)法》一書，主要著眼于激進(jìn)的新式學(xué)習(xí)方法，講述了情感、想象力以及潛意識在學(xué)習(xí)過程中所起的作用。書中討論到了由Geaorge Lozanov提出的一個理論，那就是暗示的力量。

　　Lozanov的教學(xué)技巧主要基于這樣的證據(jù)：在無意識狀態(tài)下(他稱此為非特異性心理反應(yīng))大腦所作出的各種聯(lián)系要比在有意識狀態(tài)下作出的持續(xù)更長時間。除了實驗室證據(jù)可以證明這一點之外，我們自身的經(jīng)歷也表明我們通常會記住自己所觀察到的周邊信息，而忘記最開始的學(xué)習(xí)目的?；叵胍幌聨讉€月前或是幾年前學(xué)過的課本，會發(fā)現(xiàn)我們能夠輕易地回想起一些無關(guān)緊要的細(xì)節(jié)，比如書的顏色、裝訂、字體或是我們當(dāng)時在圖書館閱讀此書時做過的桌子，而不是回想起當(dāng)時我們集中精力所看的課本的內(nèi)容。再試著回想一下我們曾經(jīng)認(rèn)真聆聽過的講座，較之應(yīng)該聽到的演講主題而言，我們會更容易回想起演講者的容貌和舉止風(fēng)度，我們在報告廳的位置甚至是當(dāng)時壞掉的空調(diào)。及時這些周邊細(xì)節(jié)是比較容易忘掉的，但在催眠狀態(tài)下，或是當(dāng)我們像演心理劇那樣在想象中重溫當(dāng)時的情景時，這些周邊信息就能很快的被回想起來。而另一方面，演講內(nèi)容的細(xì)節(jié)信息早就被拋到九霄云外去了。

　　這種現(xiàn)象的產(chǎn)生有一部分歸因于常見的起反作用效果的學(xué)習(xí)方法(拼盡全力去記憶，令肌肉緊張，最終導(dǎo)致疲憊)。但同時它也恰恰反映出大腦運轉(zhuǎn)的方式。據(jù)此Lozanov建立了他教育系統(tǒng)的核心：間接教學(xué)法，也叫暗示法。在他稱之為暗示教學(xué)法(suggestopedia)的方法中，學(xué)生的注意力被從本該集中精力學(xué)習(xí)的課程上轉(zhuǎn)移到了外部信息上。這樣課程本身就成了外部信息，由此就可以被大腦的儲備功能來處理。

　　外語學(xué)習(xí)中的暗示教學(xué)法是這一理論的絕佳例證。這種方法最新的改良版本(1980年)是學(xué)生邊聽音樂邊朗讀單詞和課文。第一節(jié)課被分成了兩部分：第一部分中，教師會伴隨著古典音樂(莫扎特，貝多芬，勃拉姆斯)的旋律以緩慢且莊嚴(yán)的語調(diào)朗讀課文。學(xué)生則跟著看課文。接著是數(shù)分鐘的靜默。下一部分中，學(xué)生們要聽的是巴洛克音樂(巴赫. 柯瑞里，亨德爾)，此時教師用正常的語音語速朗讀，而學(xué)生將書本合上。整節(jié)課上學(xué)生的注意力都是被動的，他們只是聽音樂而并不學(xué)習(xí)課本內(nèi)容。

　　事先，學(xué)生們已經(jīng)為這種語言學(xué)習(xí)體驗做足了準(zhǔn)備。通過與老師以及對體驗效果感到滿意的學(xué)生的交流，他們形成了一種期待，那就是接下來的學(xué)習(xí)將是簡單輕松的，他們在一節(jié)課的時間里就可以成功記憶幾百個外語詞匯。在上課之前的講話中，教師會向?qū)W生們簡單介紹要講的內(nèi)容，但不是去“講授”內(nèi)容。同樣，學(xué)生也會被告知在這個介紹的過程中，不要試圖記住所介紹內(nèi)容。

　　兩段式課程結(jié)束幾小時后，會有一個跟進(jìn)課程鼓勵學(xué)生們回憶剛才課上所學(xué)的內(nèi)容。教學(xué)方法同樣是間接的。學(xué)生還是不必集中精力去記憶這些詞匯，而是嘗試將這些詞匯用于交流(比如通過游戲或是即興演出)。這些方式在語言教學(xué)中十分常見。但間接暗示法的特殊之處就在于它完全致力于幫助回憶，對內(nèi)容的學(xué)習(xí)是自動的，不費吹灰之力的，聽著小曲兒就搞定了。教師的主要任務(wù)就是輔助學(xué)生將他們在模糊意識狀態(tài)下所學(xué)的東西進(jìn)行用，因而是的學(xué)到的東西在有意識狀態(tài)下也可以輕易獲得。與傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)模式的另外一點不同就是在間接暗示方法下，學(xué)生通常課以輕易地記住1000個生詞以及語法點和成語。

　　Lozanov試驗過在睡眠狀態(tài)下、催眠狀態(tài)下或精神恍惚之際給出的也接暗示的教學(xué)法，結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)這些過程都是沒有必要的。催眠術(shù)、瑜珈、西瓦心靈術(shù)、宗教議式以及精神療法都與成功的暗示相關(guān)，但看上去好像沒有哪一種技巧是在使用暗示法時必不可少的。這些儀式可能被視作安慰劑。Lozanov認(rèn)為他的體系中圍繞暗示所進(jìn)行的儀式實際上也是安慰劑。但同時也指出如果沒有這種安慰劑，人們就不能甚至懼怕使用他們大腦的儲備容量。正如任何一種安慰劑一樣，它也要獲得權(quán)威部門的認(rèn)可才能有效果。正如醫(yī)生充分利用權(quán)威暗示的力量，堅持要求病人必須每天三次、餐前服用某種白色膠囊一樣，Lozanov也堅決要求暗示教學(xué)法一定要按照事先指定好的方式進(jìn)行，并且要由培訓(xùn)過的合格教師來執(zhí)行。

　　盡管憑借現(xiàn)代語言教學(xué)中的成功案例，暗示教學(xué)法有了一定程度的名氣，但幾乎沒有一個教師能夠取得像Lozanov和他的同僚那樣顯著的成就。也許我們可以將這些平庸的成果歸咎為安慰劑效果不足。學(xué)生還沒有形成適當(dāng)?shù)乃季S體系，在運用這種方法學(xué)習(xí)的時候他們沒有充分被激發(fā)，他們沒有足夠的“信念”。

　　他們認(rèn)為這不是真正的教學(xué)，尤其是因為這種教學(xué)方法并沒有涉及他們學(xué)會相信的學(xué)習(xí)之根本——那就是“學(xué)”。

　　劍橋雅思閱讀7原文解析(test1)

　　Passage1

　　Question 1

　　答案：B

　　關(guān)鍵詞：wildlife other than bats. . . do not rely on vision. . .

　　定位原文：B段第2句: “Bats are not the only creatures to face this difficulty today”.

　　解題思路: 題目問哪一段舉出了除了蝙蝠之外不需要視覺導(dǎo)航的物種的例子，B段中說了被捕獵的昆蟲、深海魚類、鯨魚、海豚等物種在鮮有光線或者完全黑暗的環(huán)境下是如何生活的，比較容易定位。

　　Question 2

　　答案：A

　　關(guān)鍵詞: early mammals avoid dying out

　　定位原文: A段倒數(shù)第2句: “In the time when the dinosaurs …”

　　解題思路: ancestors 等同于early mammals, survive 等同于avoid dying out。

　　Question 3

　　答案：A

　　關(guān)鍵詞: why … hunt in the dark

　　定位原文: A段第5句: “Given that there is a living...”

　　解題思路: 聯(lián)系上下文，對應(yīng)句說了物競天擇使蝙蝠晚上捕食，后面說了這個可能追溯到過去，那時恐龍白天捕食，使哺乳動物不得不晚上捕食

　　Question 4

　　答案：E

　　關(guān)鍵詞：a particular discovery

　　定位原文: E段倒數(shù)第2句話 “… and much of our scientific understanding of the details...”

　　解題思路: 理解定位句意義：大多數(shù)關(guān)于蝙蝠行為細(xì)節(jié)的科學(xué)理解都是利用雷達(dá)理論完成的

　　Question 5

　　答案：D

　　關(guān)鍵詞： early military echolocation

　　定位原文: D段倒數(shù)第2句和最后1句: “After this technique had been invented....” “Both sides in the Second World War ...”

　　解題思路: 第二次世界大戰(zhàn)可以對應(yīng)early一詞。

　　Question 6

　　答案：phantom

　　關(guān)鍵詞： facial vision / pain / arm or leg

　　定位原文: D段第5句 “… like the referred pain in a phantom limb”

　　解題思路: 通過填空題的小標(biāo)題“Facial Vision”，首先可以把此題迅速定位到文章的D段，緊接著可以在D段的第5句尋找到定位關(guān)鍵詞referred pain。

　　Question 7

　　答案：echoes/obstacles

　　關(guān)鍵詞：perceiving / ears

　　定位原文: D段第6句、第7句 “The sensation of facial vision… the presence of obstacles”.

　　解題思路: 此題需要將兩句話放在一起理解：而感視覺是通過耳朵傳輸?shù)模M管盲人并沒有意識到這一點，但現(xiàn)實生活中他們的確在運用自己的步伐以及其他聲音的回聲來感覺路上障礙物的存在。perceive一詞在雅思學(xué)術(shù)類閱讀考試當(dāng)中多次出現(xiàn)，是“感知;感覺;察覺”的意思，相當(dāng)于原文中的sense。綜上分析得出答案echoes或obstacles。

　　Question 8

　　答案：depth

　　關(guān)鍵詞: before / instruments / calculated / seabed

　　定位原文: D段倒數(shù)第3句: “… for example to measure the depth of the sea under a ship”

　　解題思路: 按照解題順序，找到介詞before，接著找到instruments，并很快找到題目中關(guān)鍵詞 calculated的同義同measure，然后就以順利找到正確答案depth。

　　Question 9

　　答案：submarines

　　關(guān)鍵詞：wartime / finding

　　定位原文: D段倒數(shù)第2句：“After this technique had been invented…”

　　解題思路: 看到weapons designers 可以聯(lián)想到wartime, detection是探測的意思，與題目中的finding同義，由此可知答案是submarines. 這里特別提醒考生，如果不變復(fù)數(shù)是不得分的。

　　Question 10

　　答案: natural selection

　　關(guān)鍵詞：radar/ resulted in/ radar-like / bats

　　定位原文: E段第1句: “… or rather natural selection…”

　　解題思路: 題目：早在雷達(dá)發(fā)明之前，是什么在蝙蝠身上進(jìn)化出了復(fù)雜的類雷達(dá)系統(tǒng)呢? Sophisticated一詞指“稍密的;復(fù)雜的”。根據(jù)題意, 考生需要尋找一個蝙蝠擁有精確定位本領(lǐng)的原因。原因連接詞在這用并沒有出現(xiàn)，但perfect一詞卻可以告訴我們是自然選擇使然，所以正確答案是 natural selection。

　　Question 11

　　答案：radio waves/echoes

　　關(guān)鍵詞: not used

　　定位原文: E段第2句: “It is technically incorrect to…”

　　解題思路: 題目說蝙蝠也使用雷達(dá)實際上是不正確的，因為在導(dǎo)航的時候它們根本沒有使用____。not used是關(guān)鍵詞，題目中以被動語態(tài)的形式出現(xiàn)，文章中則變成主動語態(tài)，但因為核心動詞use 沒有改變，所以此題很簡單，正確答案是radio waves。

　　Question 12

　　答案：mathematical theories

　　關(guān)鍵詞：radar / sonar/ similar

　　定位原文: E段第4句: “But the underlying mathematical theories…”

　　解題思路: 題目：雷達(dá)和聲吶是基于相似的____。先在E段后部找到radar和sonar兩個關(guān)鍵詞，接著找到similar，空里要填的名詞應(yīng)該就不遠(yuǎn)了。此處語序有所變動，但是仍然很容易找到答案mathematical theories，因為題干中要求最多用兩個詞填空，因此前面的underlying就不能填了。

　　Question 13

　　答案：zoologist

　　關(guān)鍵詞： echolocation/ first / someone

　　定位原文: E段最后1句: “The American zoologist…”

　　解題思路: 第一次使用聲吶一詞的人的職業(yè)是____。只要知道coin詞有“發(fā)明;創(chuàng)造;杜撰”的意思，就能輕易聯(lián)想到first used。而根據(jù)文章，這個詞是由一個叫Donald Griffin的zoologist發(fā)明的，由此得出答案。

　　Test 1 Passage 2

　　Question 14

　　答案：xi

　　關(guān)鍵詞：ancient

　　定位原文: A段最后1句出現(xiàn)了the Roman Empire

　　解題思路: 本段第1句定下了段落的主要內(nèi)容為古代對水資源的管理，接下來講了城鎮(zhèn)的發(fā)展帶來大壩和引水渠的發(fā)展，最后講述了羅馬帝國鼎盛時期的水利系統(tǒng)。因此本段的主題是古代的供水系統(tǒng)。

　　Question 15

　　答案： vii

　　關(guān)鍵詞：health

　　定位原文: C段倒數(shù)第2句出現(xiàn) sanitation, 最后一句“preventable water-related diseases kill…”

　　解題思路: C段最后1句說到：每天大約1-2萬名兒童死于與水相關(guān)的各種可預(yù)防性疾病，新證據(jù)表明我們解決上述問題的力度還遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠。雖然不能夠在首句就感覺到這一段是在談健康與水供給之間的關(guān)系，但是看了下面的文字，就可感覺到作者在談健康,特別是sanitation一詞出現(xiàn)后，基本可以確定答案是vii 。

　　Question 16

　　答案： v

　　關(guān)鍵詞：effect

　　定位原文: D段從第2句開始的整個段落

　　解題思路: D段是一個描述性段落。第1句話就說“我們水資源政策的后果遠(yuǎn)非僅僅危及人類健康那么簡單”，承上啟下，顯然這一段不是講健康了，但同時我們也更加確認(rèn)C段是在講健康方面的問題，那么個人健康講完了，要不要講一下地球的健康呢?于是考生在這一段找到了freshwater fish… threatened… endangered… degrade… soil quality… reduce… agricultural productivity… 等等與環(huán)境相關(guān)的同語，所以不必讀到最后，考生應(yīng)該已經(jīng)能夠看出這道題目的答案是v。

　　Question 17

　　答案：i

　　關(guān)鍵詞：revision, policy

　　定位原文: E段第1句

　　解題思路: E段首句說: “At the outset of the new millennium，however，the way resource planners think about water is beginning to change”. 這句話當(dāng)中的changed正好可以與revision相對應(yīng)。在第三句考生還可以找到Some water experts are now demanding…，這就對上了答案中的scientists call for。在下面考生還可以找到this shift in philosophy，這一點又可以對應(yīng)policy. 縱觀全段，shift, shifting等表示變化的詞不斷出現(xiàn)，所以最合適的答案就是i。

　　Question 18

　　答案： ix

　　關(guān)鍵詞：surprisingly downward

　　定位原文: F段第1句

　　解題思路: F段首句說：Fortunately — and unexpectedly — the demand for water is not rising as rapidly as some predicted. F段末句提到：And in a few parts of the world, demand has actually fallen. 合起來看，正好可以與heading當(dāng)中的“令人驚奇的下降趨勢”相對照，很好選擇的一題。

　　Question 19

　　答案： ii

　　關(guān)鍵詞：explanation, reduced

　　定位原文: G段第1句

　　解題思路: “What explains this remarkable turn of events?” 此句中的turn of events指的就是F段中提到的水需求量下降一事，所以答案應(yīng)該選擇ii。如果考生把F段和G段連起來看的話，會發(fā)現(xiàn)選項的邏輯連貫性。

　　ix: a surprising downward trend in demand for water

　　ii: an explanation for reduced water use

　　Question 20

　　答案: x

　　關(guān)鍵詞：raise, standard

　　定位原文: H段第2句: “But such projects must be…”

　　解題思路: H段第2句的higher specifications等于選項中的raise standards，也比較容易理解答案是x。

　　Question 21

　　答案：NO

　　關(guān)鍵詞：Ancient Rome

　　定位原文: A段最后1句：“At the height of the Roman Empire…” 在羅馬帝國鼎盛時期，人們修建了9 條主要水利系統(tǒng)，其疏水管道和污水管道均以革新的方式鋪設(shè)，為城區(qū)居民提供用水。當(dāng)時羅馬城內(nèi)居民人均用水量和現(xiàn)今工業(yè)社會很多地區(qū)的人均用水量相當(dāng)。

　　解題思路:關(guān)鍵詞是as much…as，這個詞組與題干中的higher than相抵觸，兩者明顯不符。所以答案為NO。

　　Question 22

　　答案： YES

　　關(guān)鍵詞： irrigation system 或者按照順序原則定位在B段

　　定位原文: B段倒數(shù)第2句: “Food production has kept pace with …” 食品供應(yīng)能跟得上人口猛增主要是由于人工灌溉系統(tǒng)的增長使得世界糧食產(chǎn)量提高了40%

　　解題思路: 題中的feeding increasing population在文中對應(yīng)Food production has kept pace with soaring populations, 題中的due primarily to變成文中的mainly because of, 而題中的 improved irrigation system則成了文中的expansion of artificial irrigation systems。

　　Question 23

　　答案：NOT GIVEN

　　關(guān)鍵詞：ancient Greeks and Romans

　　定位原文: 在C段第1句 “…with water services inferior to those available to the ancient Greeks and Romans” 世界上有一半的人口享受的供水服務(wù)還比不上古希臘和古羅馬時期

　　解題思路: 題干中的古希臘、古羅馬終于出現(xiàn)了，但是周圍根本沒有任何語句表明現(xiàn)代人模仿了他們的水利系統(tǒng)，從上面這句話也完全無法推出這個結(jié)論，可見題目是無中生有，屬于完全沒有提及型的 NOT GIVEN。

　　Question 24

　　答案：NO

　　關(guān)鍵詞： industrial growth

　　定位原文: F段第3句、第4句: “ Although population, industrial output… has actually fallen”. 盡管在發(fā)達(dá)國家，人口仍然急劇膨脹，工業(yè)和經(jīng)濟依然高速發(fā)展，但人們開采地下水和地表水的速度卻減緩了下來。在全球某些地區(qū)，人們對水資源的需求量甚至下降了。

　　解題思路: 題目中稱工業(yè)增長使水需求量整體上升，而文中卻說速度放緩，甚至需求量下降，兩者顯然是抵觸的，所以答案是NO。

　　Question 25

　　答案：YES

　　關(guān)鍵詞：modem technologies, domestic或者跟隨24題順序找到G段

　　定位原文: G段第4句 “But since 1980…” 但自從 1980年以來，人均用水量確實是下降了，這主要得益于一系列新技術(shù)在家庭及工業(yè)節(jié)水方面的作用。

　　解題思路: 文中的decreased對應(yīng)題目中的reduction, 都指需水量的下降。這是一道很容易辨別的YES。

　　Question 26

　　答案：NOT GIVEN

　　關(guān)鍵詞： government, water infrastructures

　　定位原文: H段位于第1句的infrastructure

　　解題思路: 原文只是說未來還會建各種設(shè)施，但沒有提到國家是否應(yīng)該擁有水利設(shè)施

　　Test 1 Passage 3

　　Question 27

　　答案：D

　　關(guān)鍵詞：Educating Psyche

　　定位原文: 第1段首句：“Educating Psyche by Bemie Neville is …”

　　解題思路: 作者開篇就揭示了本書的主要內(nèi)容，是關(guān)于激進(jìn)的新型教學(xué)法的。題干中的 mainly concern 等同于文中的look at; radical new兩個形容詞等同于D選項中的not traditional，因此可以判定正確答案是D。個別同學(xué)會被C困擾，因為貌似emotion, imagination, unconscious 這樣的詞在文中第一段也出現(xiàn)了，仔細(xì)辨別the effects of emotion, imagination and the unconscious on learning這句話，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)它說的是情感，想象力和潛意識對學(xué)習(xí)的影響，而不是C答案中情感對想象力及潛意識的影響，這是典型的混淆項。

　　Question 28

　　答案： A

　　關(guān)鍵詞：Lozanov’s theory

　　定位原文: 第2段第2句 “Besides the laboratory evidence for this…”

　　解題思路: 這句之后作者馬上舉出兩個例子：讀書和聽演講，我們沒有記住書的內(nèi)容，也沒記住演講的主題，卻能夠較易回憶起書的顏色、裝訂、字體以及演講者的容貌舉止，甚至是禮堂里壞掉的空調(diào)，這些小細(xì)節(jié)與主題相比微不足道。作者所舉的例子形象地說明了題干中所說的“當(dāng)我們努力要記起什么的時候，我們記住的往往是些無關(guān)緊要的細(xì)節(jié)”，所以正確答案是A

　　Question 29

　　答案： B

　　關(guān)鍵詞：book/lecture

　　定位原文: 第2段

　　解題思路: 考生可以將C排除，因為文章并未涉及這個選項的內(nèi)容。D選項所提到的催眠在第2段根本未被提及，也可以直接排除。A和B兩項中，A與文中所述內(nèi)容不符，文中是用兩個例子來說明白我們記憶的時候，記住的往往是無關(guān)緊要的細(xì)節(jié)，而不是用來說明書和演講對于促進(jìn)注意力集中的重要性。因此B是正確答案，文中所舉的兩個例子相當(dāng)于論據(jù)，用來證明他關(guān)于教學(xué)方法的理論是對充分根據(jù)的。

　　Question 30

　　答案：C

　　關(guān)鍵詞：Lozanov

　　定位原文: 第3段倒數(shù)第2句 “In suggestopedia, as he called his method…”

　　解題思路: 選項C中 something other than the curriculum content剛好可以和上句中的shifted away from the curriculum to focus on something peripheral相對應(yīng)。即使考生根本不認(rèn)識peripheral一詞，也可以從shift away這個詞組猜測出來重點被從curriculum上轉(zhuǎn)移到別的東西上去了，然后可以推出正確答案是C

　　Question 31

　　答案：FALSE

　　關(guān)鍵詞： in the fourth paragraph

　　定位原文: 第4段第4句到第7句 “…the teacher reads the text slowly and solemnly… in the second part … while the teacher reads the text in a normal speaking voice.”

　　解題思路: 文中提到教學(xué)的兩個階段：音樂從第一階段的古典音樂到了第二階段的巴洛克式音樂，老師也從第一階段的“用緩慢且莊嚴(yán)的語調(diào)朗讀課文”變成了第二階段的“用正常聲調(diào)朗讀課文”，這就證明改變的不僅僅是音樂，還有老師的朗讀方法

　　Question 32

　　答案：FALSE

　　關(guān)鍵詞：prior to

　　定位原文: 文章第5段第2句: “through meeting with the staff…” 通過與老師以及對這種語言學(xué)習(xí)方式感到滿意的學(xué)生的交流，他們形成了一種期待：那就是接下來的學(xué)習(xí)將是簡單輕松的

　　解題思路: 原文中的easy and pleasant與題目中的demanding互相矛盾，由此可知答案應(yīng)為FALSE

　　Question 33

　　答案：TRUE

　　關(guān)鍵詞：follow-up

　　定位原文: 第6段第4句：“Such methods are not unusual in language teaching”

　　解題思路: 這些方式在語言教學(xué)中十分尋常。言外之意，暗示教學(xué)法跟進(jìn)課程中所用的教學(xué)方法比如games或者improvised dramatisation，在普通教學(xué)中也被用到，推測一下，即為跟進(jìn)課程使用了與傳統(tǒng)課堂相似的教學(xué)方法。

　　Question 34

　　答案：NOT GIVEN

　　關(guān)鍵詞：improvements in their memory

　　定位原文: 第6段最后1句 “Another difference from conventional teaching is …” 與傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)模式不同的是，在間接暗示方法下，學(xué)生通?？梢暂p易記住1000個生詞以及語法點和成語。

　　解題思路: 作者僅僅是說采用暗示方法的學(xué)生記往了1000個單詞，這高于傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)方法的成果。但是并沒有說記住1000個單詞，就代表他們的記憶能力有了所謂的提高，從文中給出的證據(jù)，我們是無法推知這個結(jié)論的。因此答案是NOT GIVEN

　　Question 35

　　答案：NOT GIVEN

　　關(guān)鍵詞：teachers

　　定位原文: 第6段最后1句 “Another difference from conventional teaching is …”

　　解題思路: 文中提到了suggestopedia及conventional teaching，但主要講了兩者的區(qū)別與聯(lián)系，并未標(biāo)明教師對兩者的偏好，因此答案為NOT GIVEN.

　　Question 36

　　答案：TRUE

　　關(guān)鍵詞： new vocabulary

　　定位原文: 第6段最后1句 “Another difference from conventional teaching is …” (與傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)模式的另外一點不同就是在間接暗示方法下，學(xué)生通?？梢暂p易記住1000個生詞以及語法點和成語。)

　　解題思路: conventional teaching等同于題目中的ordinary class, difference 一詞就暗示了暗示教學(xué)法比傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)方法的進(jìn)步，而后面強調(diào)學(xué)生在暗示方法下可以記住多達(dá)1000個新詞，顯然比在傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)方法下記憶的更多。因此答案是TRUE.

　　Question 37

　　答案： F

　　關(guān)鍵詞：hypnosis/ however/a certain amount/convince

　　定位原文: 第7段第4句: “Lozanov acknowledges that …”

　　解題思路: 與其他如催眠那樣的方法相比，暗示教學(xué)法使用了一種不那么直接的暗示方法。然而，Lonazov承認(rèn)為了說服學(xué)生，一定量的37還是必要的，盡管37只是一種38。

　　從Lozanov acknowledges向后尋找，很快找到a這個冠詞，后而就是38空要填的詞H placebo,返回頭尋找曾經(jīng)出現(xiàn)在詞庫里的名詞，考生就得到了F ritual
