No. 4-1SECTION A

By the time the American colonists took up arms against Great Britain in order to secure their independence, the institution of Black slavery was deeply entrenched. But the contradiction inherent in this situation was, for many, a source of constant embarrassment. “It always appeared a most iniquitous scheme to me,” Abigail Adams wrote her husband in 1774, “to fight ourselves for what we are daily robbing and plundering from those who have as good a right to freedom as we have.”
1Many Americans besides Abigail Adams were struck by the inconsistency of their stand during the War of Independence, and they were not averse to making moves to emancipate the slaves. Quakers and other religious groups organized antislavery societies, while numerous individuals manumitted their slaves. In fact, within several years of the end of the War of Independence, most of the Eastern states had made provisions for the gradual emancipation of slaves.

17.   Which of the following best states the central idea of the passage? （主旨大意题）
(A) The War of Independence produced among many Black Americans a heightened consciousness of the inequities in American society.
(B) The War of Independence strengthened the bonds of slavery of many Black Americans while intensifying their desire to be free.
(C) The War of Independence exposed to many Americans the contradiction of slavery in a country seeking its freedom and resulted in efforts to resolve that contradiction.
(D) The War of Independence provoked strong criticisms by many Americans of the institution of slavery, but produced little substantive action against it.
(E) The War of Independence renewed the efforts of many American groups toward achieving Black emancipation.
(对于主旨大意题目，大家请详细参照39+3中的介绍，此题的分析很容易，就不在这里啰嗦了，像这种送分题目务必在30s内搞定，只要读一遍题目就可以迅速做出判断的)

18.   The passage contains information that would support which of the following statements about the colonies before the War of Independence? （貌似细节题，但是一遍看下来就可以直接推断出了，没什么难度，略，30s搞定）
(A) They contained organized antislavery societies.
(B) They allowed individuals to own slaves.
(C) They prohibited religious groups from political action.
(D) They were inconsistent in their legal definitions of slave status.
(E) They encouraged abolitionist societies to expand their influence.

19.   According to the passage, the War of Independence was embarrassing to some Americans for which of the following reasons? （万恶的罗马数字，很浪费时间，不过此题只要把上面画线的那个句子同意替换一下就行了，那个句子算是杨鹏难句里4分的句子了，主要是这个指代容易让人混，如果第一遍没有读明白的话，第二遍也差不多了，而且结合合理化推断原则，通过原文整体思路即可推断，给1min）
I.     It involved a struggle for many of the same liberties that Americans were denying to others.
II.    It involved a struggle for independence from the very nation that had founded the colonies.
III.  It involved a struggle based on inconsistencies in the participants’ conceptions of freedom.
(A) I only
(B) II only
(C) I and II only
(D) I and III only
(E) I, II, and III

20.   Which of the following statements regarding American society in the years immediately following the War of Independence is best supported by the passage? （细节定位，对于短文章来说还是很简单的，因为很清晰的就是最后一句题干比较长，而且还有统一替换，给1min足够）
(A) The unexpected successes of the antislavery societies led to their gradual demise in the Eastern states.
(B) Some of the newly independent American states had begun to make progress toward abolishing slavery.
(C) Americans like Abigail Adams became disillusioned with the slow progress of emancipation and gradually abandoned the cause.
(D) Emancipated slaves gradually were accepted in the Eastern states as equal members of American society.
(E) The abolition of slavery in many Eastern states was the result of close cooperation between religious groups and free Blacks.

两年前我们相邻的州 L开展了洲际彩票活动来增加用于教育和公共医疗的财政收入。现在，L对于每个小学生的平均开支比我们多，L的公共医疗体系接待的人数也比我们的多很多。如果我们也建立一套和 L类似的彩票系统，其盈利可以被用来改善我们的教育系统和公共医疗体系。新的彩票无疑会成功，因为在我们的首府举办的一次调查显示 I的居民每人每年用于博彩的平均支出已经达到$50。


（这是我随便找的一个ARGU题目，总共174字，我给自己记时了一下，就10s就搞定了，相信大家也没问题，这可比上面的多26个字哦。要是大家说那些是长难句的话，那篇英文总共6句话，而中文则是4句，哪个算长句呢？而且要是杨鹏的难句练出感觉的话，那上面的句子直接秒杀了，这就是练习难句的初衷）

出题点总结与猜想：
1
By the time the American colonists took up arms against Great Britain in order to secure their independence,(前半个分句没有什么值得出题的地方，毕竟短阅读只最多能出4道题目，所以要是我是作者的话，一定要留在后面) the institution of Black slavery was deeply entrenched.（这里是为下文做一个铺垫，引出了文章的KEY——黑奴制度） But the contradiction（这个词是很重要的一个，是作为引领下文的关键，有冲突才能有发展，这个在几乎所有题目里都是要有的。即使没有明确指出，在处理每一个题目的时候，找到这个主要的矛盾冲突点是非常必要的。而且在AW中也同理，这也就是在论证过程中一定要有对比反驳才能展示提升思想，矛盾越深刻，题目才能分析的越深刻。） inherent in this situation was, for many,（不错的插入语，AW中可以用到）a source of constant embarrassment(这个也是文章的一个关键点，此句算是文章主题，由此既可以推断出文章的大体走向，由于后面的“解决”没有提及，所以只能算是半个TS，但是通过合理化原则，大家可以预测到下文是要去解决。这里既然已经点出来主旨，则必然是一个出题点了，要留心注意). “It always appeared a most iniquitous scheme to me,” Abigail Adams wrote her husband in 1774, “to fight ourselves for what we are daily robbing and plundering from those who have as good a right to freedom as we have.”（这算是一个没有ILLUSTRATION的例证，呵呵，比较混乱，不过相对来说结合难句基础以及体会作者思想，这句话的意思还是很容易体会的。这里是一个难句，也是阅读中的出题点，所以读到这里要留心注意了！后面会有针对这个的问题的。而且这个句子的结构和形式对于AW写作有很好的帮助，在正反论证之中，如果用这样一个句子做承接则大妙，里面的核心词重复算是做到极点了，而且是一个有逻辑回旋的难句，远好于现在大家常用到的所谓长句——很复杂的结构但是确实一根筋的平铺直叙。难与长的区别，自己体会一下。这里还有一个人名，就叫AA就行了，下面的题目可能会提到，然后回来定位用）
1
Many Americans besides Abigail Adams were struck by the inconsistency of their stand（用在AW中的很好的表达，而且这样的段落间衔接就是所谓的承上启下，大家写AW写多了之后有了一个毛病——忘记了中文写作中的一些好东西。承上启下是很重要的！！切记。而且永远要比干瘪的FIRSTLY,SECONDLY舒服的多） during the War of Independence（出现了关键词——WofI，这样的词汇一定要加注意，这是下面题目中很常见的定为点）, and they were not averse（这是一个双重否定，也是要留心的点，GRE的阅读我研究的还不深，但是要是在CET里，那堆老不死的肯定要在这里挖坑了。而且看看人家用的双重否定，远比现在广大考生在AW中的极其干瘪的双否要舒服的多，隐蔽的多。一定要学习一下，回头自己写的时候用上。） to making moves to emancipate the slaves（解放了，到了这里TS算是完整了，文章的主旨也就十分清晰了。这里可能会有一个态度题的问题）. Quakers and other religious groups organized antislavery societies, while numerous individuals manumitted their slaves. (这句话是对上面一句的详细例证，算是属于略读的地方了，但是首字母提取和标记要做好，防止后面有细节定为题目)In fact（关键字眼，注意，注意）, within several years（时间点，做好标记，细节题会用到） of the end of the War of Independence, most of the Eastern states had made provisions for the gradual emancipation of slaves.
1
1
OVER！以上就是重新分析的本文章，出发点有两个：对AW的指导价值，预测作者的出题的点。如果真的能将这个技巧熟练应用的话，这得可以达到在读完文章去做题的时候，面对每一个题目YIN笑——嘿嘿，我就知道你在这里等着我呢。

NO.3 对题目整体的体会：
快两点了，还有好多任务没有完成呢，唯一的体会最近太懒了，效率太低了。大家鄙视我督促我吧。笔考倒计时63天。拼搏在此一举！！！

(A) The War of Independence produced among many Black Americans a heightened consciousness of the inequities in American society.
(B) The War of Independence strengthened the bonds of slavery of many Black Americans while intensifying their desire to be free.
(C) The War of Independence exposed to many Americans the contradiction of slavery in a country seeking its freedom and resulted in efforts to resolve that contradiction.
(D) The War of Independence provoked strong criticisms by many Americans of the institution of slavery, but produced little substantive action against it.

(A) They contained organized antislavery societies.
(B) They allowed individuals to own slaves.
(C) They prohibited religious groups from political action.
(D) They were inconsistent in their legal definitions of slave status.
(E) They encouraged abolitionist societies to expand their influence.

19.   According to the passage, the War of Independence was embarrassing to some Americans for which of the following reasons?
I.     It involved a struggle for many of the same liberties that Americans were denying to others.
II.    It involved a struggle for independence from the very nation that had founded the colonies.
III.  It involved a struggle based on inconsistencies in the participants’ conceptions of freedom.
(A) I only
(B) II only
(C) I and II only
(D) I and III only
(E) I, II, and III
II 不符合，因此C,E可以排除，本题iii是很大的干扰项，文章中的意思是说很多美国人通过独立战争来争取自由和独立，但是他们发现其实他们自己对于自由的标准是双重的，换句话说，对黑人奴隶是不公平的-他们的自由是针对自己的，对于黑奴，并没有赋予他们自由，这使他们非常的embarrassing，而不是他们和独立战争的参与者在关于自由的概念上有不一致，而导致尴尬。
20.   Which of the following statements （regarding American society in the years immediately following the War of Independence） is best supported by the passage?
(A) The unexpected successes of the antislavery societies led to their gradual demise in the Eastern states.  
(B) Some of the newly independent American states had begun to make progress toward abolishing slavery.
(C) Americans like Abigail Adams became disillusioned with the slow progress of emancipation and gradually abandoned the cause.
(D) Emancipated slaves gradually were accepted in the Eastern states as equal members of American society.
(E) The abolition of slavery in many Eastern states was the result of close cooperation between religious groups and free Blacks.
A,C,D 不符合事实，E文中未提到。

感觉还不错，呵呵，在不限时的情况下，只错了最后一个
最后一个是细节定位，怎么错了呢？！对选项把握不够！
加油吧！

------------------------------------------
对题目的肢解
4 Which of the following statesments is best supported by the passage?
   the statements regarding American society in the years immediately following the War of Independence(WI)

原文最后一句
"In fact, within several years of the end of the War of Independence, most of the Eastern states had made
provisions for the gradual emancipation of slaves"

时间对应关系：
in the years immediately following the WI-->within several years of the end of the WI
从这个对应关系，可以看出我们需要在根据这一句话来做题

选项(B)的时间
the newly independent American states--因为全文在讲emancipation的初级阶段，那么newly...当然是in the years immediatly following the WI，所以时间对应关系确定

接下来核实事件是否一致
toward abolishing slavery
这里的abolishing slavery与provisions for the gradual emancipation of slaves是异曲同工，表意相同
----------------------------
在“时间”，“事件”，“地点”都一致的前提下，我们没有理由不选择B
---------------------------

总结：
时间概念或许是花儿提到的“火花点”，以后阅读中要在这些地方擦点火花才行！

-----------------------------
接下来再去看看草木是怎么分析的
