第四段最后一句，意思是“在很多职业化教育的学校中，有这样一种老套的思想，那就是，

职业教育是针对那些在学术上不能成功的那些孩子的。〃根据这句话可确定答案就是Bare

【选项】

A.willbringtheUSclosertoothercountries

B.willaccelerateglobalenvironmentalchange

C.isnotreallyencouragedbytheUSgovernment

D.isnotcompetitiveenoughmithregardtoitscost

26.【答案】Cfalling

【解析】这是一道词义句意题，要想知道plummeting的意思，首先要回到原文找线

索，即plummeting所在的句子以及上下句，由原文可知，plummeting所在句子是在说现在

例如风能和太阳能这样的可再生资源的价格的问题，plummeling是修饰可再生资源的价格

的，接着二段最后一句就在用具体数字来证明可再生资源的本钱在下降，如太阳能本钱下降

了百分之八十，风能也降到三分之一，由此可知，可再生资源的本钱在下降，plummeting

的含义是下降的意思。所以选择Cfallingo

27.【答案】Aisprogressingnotably

【解析】

28.【答案】Awindisawidelyusedenergysource

【解析】这是一道细节推断题，根据题干关键词定位至第四段第三句，在爱荷华州，

风力涡轮机点缀着这个州并提供了此州百分之三十六的电能，并且还吸引了像微软这样的科

技巨头公司。因此可判断，在爱荷华州，风能是一种广泛使用的能源。所以答案是A。

29.【答案】Citscontinuoussupplyisbecomingareality

【解析】这是一道是非细节题，根据题干给出的段落位置，5-6两段和主题词clean

energy,回到原文的第5-6段，这两段都不长，第五段出现了But后讲到电池容量的提升a

boostinthestorage,与A选项不符，并不是因果关系，故排除；B选项说道广泛用在制

造业也不符合原文第六段第一句;而D选项和原文第六段最后一句是语义相反的，故也排除；

正确选项C是和这句话语义一致的，也是和全文主题一致的，故为正确答案。

30.【答案】CisnotreallyencouragedbytheUSgovernment

【解析】

【解析】

33.【答案】[D]cannotkeeppacewiththechangingmarket

【解析】面，相比于数据经济变化的速度，此法案开展是非常缓慢的"。由此可知，该法案

跟不上当前市场变化的步伐。因此D项为正确答案。

34.【答案】[D]theservicesarepaidforbyadvertisers.

【解析】根据题目中的because可确定为因果细节题。题干中的信息出现在第三段后半局

部，是题目中的原词competitionlawaspresentlyinterpreted,而原因在其后面的句

子。下文写到，theusersoftheirservicesarenot,读到这里的not,一定要找而是

谁。继续读下一句，Thatwouldbethepeoplewhobuyadvertisingfromthem…，与选

项对应，可得出[D]theservicssarepaidforbyadvertisers(>

35.【答案】[D]therelationshipbetweendigitalgiantsandtheirusers.

【解析】根据题目中isusedtoillustrate可判断为例证题，要找到theantsanalogy

论据所证明的论点；论点在论据之前，因此先找到论据theantsanalogy,再找到论据前

的论点句。所以此题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。因此答案为[D]

therelationshipbetweendigitalgiantsandtheirusers.

【解析】

38.【答案】[D]anessentialfactorinaccomplishinganywork.

【解析】根据题目Newport得出此题目为细节题中的文中人物观点题。根据题干中的

isas…as…，isnecessarytogettinganyworkdone。再对应选项，可直接选出[D]

anessentialfactorinaccomplishinganyworko

39.【答案】[A]canbringaooutgreaterefficiency.

【解析】根据题目中的Pillaybelieves可得出此题目为细节题中的文中人物观点题型。

根据题目中的信息，可以定位到倒数第二段最后一句，明确指出theytendtobemore

efficiento然后对应选项得出[A]canbringaboutgreaterefficiencyo

40.【答案】[A]approachestogettingmoredoneinlesstine.

【解析】根据题目的mainlyabout可知为文章主旨题，首先可以通过题目的复现内容找与

文章主旨有关的词汇，题目中反复出现了focus内容，可判断与人们的注意力有。其次，文

章主旨一般在开篇第一段或第二段会出现，第一段引用CalNewport的观点指出focus

withoutdistraction话题，第二段就提到了主题approachestomasteringthdartofdeep

work,此刻主题已明确，并且第四段有明显的证明anotherapproach>>所以此题选[A]

approachestogettingmoredoneinlesstime。
