中Forexample表示举例。此外，句中两个动名词作主语使句子富有变化。（3）第三

段首句中使用了rhink+形式宾语it+宾语补足语+不定式”的结构，值得推荐。篇章

亮点：（1）第二段首句中使用了“Whileitistruethat…stilL..”的结构,意思为“虽

Baghdad（欧洲公众对这些照片的求恶或许会排除美国的北约盟友向美国提供军事帮

助以确保巴格达的伊拉克权利顺利移交的可能性）”，而题干意思是美国的北约盟

加深了在欧洲年轻人心目中普遍存在的美国负面形象，……他们认为这些虐囚照片

证明了他们一直以来的观点：美国以错误的方式使用武力，不尊重自己的价值体

系，只是一味寻求自己的利益而题干却说在欧洲这些照片在年轻人当中没有任

scandal.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG
