The dark regions in the starry night sky are not
pockets in the universe that are devoid of stars as
had long been thought. Rather, they are dark because
Line of interstellar dust that hides the stars behind it.
5 Although its visual effect is so pronounced, dust is
only a minor constituent of the material, extremely
low in density, that lies between the stars. The average density of interstellar material in the vicinity of our Sun is 1,000 to 10,000 times less than the best terrestrial
10 laboratory vacuum. It is only because of the enormous interstellar distances that so little material per unit of
volume becomes so significant. Optical astronomy
is most directly affected, for although interstellar gas
is perfectly transparent, the dust is not. (125 words)





. It can be inferred from the passage that it is
because space is so vast that
(A) little of the interstellar material in it seems substantial
(B) normal units of volume seem futile for measurements
of density
(C) stars can be far enough from Earth to be obscured
even by very sparsely distributed matter
(D) interstellar gases can, for all practical purposes, be
regarded as transparent
(E) optical astronomy would be of little use even if no
interstellar dust existed





A mysterious phenomenon is the ability of over-water migrants to travel on course. Birds, bees, and other species can keep track of time without any sensory cues
Line from the outside world, and such ―biological clocks‖
5 clearly contribute to their ―compass sense.‖ For example, they can use the position of the Sun or stars, along with the time of day, to find north. But compass sense alone cannot explain how birds navigate the ocean: after a flock traveling east is blown far south by a storm, it will
10 assume the proper northeasterly course to compensate. Perhaps, some scientists thought, migrants determine their geographic position on Earth by celestial navigation, almost as human navigators use stars and planets, but this would demand of the animals a fantastic map sense.
15 Researchers now know that some species have a magnetic sense, which might allow migrants to determine their geographic location by detecting variations in the strength of the Earth‘s magnetic field. (157 words)




7. It can be inferred from the passage that if the
flock of birds described in lines 8-9 were
navigating by compass sense alone, they would, after the storm, fly
(A) east (B) north (C) northwest
(D) south (E) southeast
8. Of the following descriptions of migrating
animals, which most strongly suggests that the
animals are depending on magnetic cues to orient
themselves?
(A) Pigeons can properly readjust their course
even when flying long distances through
exceedingly dense fogs.
(B) Bison are able to reach their destination by
passing through a landscape that has
been partially altered by a recent fire.
(C) Elephants are able to find grounds that
some members of the herd have never seen
before.
(D) Swallows are able to return to a given spot
at the same time every year.
(E) Monarch butterflies coming from different



The belief that art originates in intuitive rather than rational faculties was worked out historically and philosophically in the somewhat wearisome volumes of
Line Benedetto Croce, who is usually considered the originator
5 of a new aesthetic. Croce was, in fact, expressing a very old idea. Long before the Romantics stressed intuition and self-expression, the frenzy of inspiration was regarded as fundamental to art, but philosophers had always assumed it must be controlled by law and by the
10 intellectual power of putting things into harmonious order. This general philosophic concept of art was supported by technical necessities. It was necessary to master certain laws and to use intellect in order to build Gothic cathedrals, or set up the stained glass windows of
15 Chartres. When this bracing element of craftsmanship ceased to dominate artists‘ outlook, new technical elements had to be adopted to maintain the intellectual element in art. Such were linear perspective and anatomy.






The passage suggests that which of the following
would most likely have occurred if linear perspective and anatomy had not come to influence artistic endeavor?
(A) The craftsmanship that shaped Gothic
architecture would have continued to
dominate artists‘ outlooks.
(B) Some other technical elements would have
been adopted to discipline artistic inspiration.
(C) Intellectual control over artistic inspiration
would not have influenced painting as it
did architecture.
(D) The role of intuitive inspiration would not
have remained fundamental to theories of
artistic creation.
(E) The assumptions of aesthetic philosophers
before Croce would have been invalidated.

The historian Frederick J. Turner wrote in the 1890‘s that the agrarian discontent that had been developing steadily in the United States since about 1870 had been
Line precipitated by the closing of the internal frontier--that is,
5 the depletion of available new land needed for further expansion of the American farming system. Actually, however, new lands were taken up for farming in the United States throughout and beyond the nineteenth century. The emphasis of the presumed disappearance of
10 the American frontier obscured the great importance of changes in the conditions and consequences of international trade that occurred during the second half of the nineteenth century. Huge tracts of land were being settled and farmed in Argentina, Australia, Canada, and in
15 the American West, and these areas were joined with one another and with the countries of Europe into an interdependent market system. Consequently, agrarian depressions no longer were local or national in scope, and they struck several nations whose internal frontiers had
20 not vanished or were not about to vanish. Between the early 1870‘s and the 1890‘s, the mounting agrarian discontent in America paralleled the almost uninterrupted decline in the prices of American agricultural products on foreign markets.
(198 words)


The author is primarily concerned with
(A) showing that a certain interpretation is
better supported by the evidence than is
an alternative explanation
(B) developing an alternative interpretation by
using sources of evidence that formerly
had been unavailable
(C) questioning the accuracy of the evidence
that most scholars have used to counter
the author‘s own interpretation
(D) reviewing the evidence that formerly had
been thought to obscure a valid
interpretation
(E) presenting evidence in support of a
controversial version of an earlier
interpretation.

The author implies that, after certain territories
and countries had been joined into an
interdependent market system in the
nineteenth century, agrarian depressions
within that system
(A) spread to several nations, excluding those in

which the internal frontier remained open
(B) manifested themselves in several nations,
including those in which new land
remained available for farming
(C) slowed down the pace of new technological
developments in international
communications and transportation
(D) affected the local and national prices of the
nonagricultural products of several nations
(E) encouraged several nations to sell more of
their agricultural products on foreign
markets

The author‘s argument implies that, compared
to the yearly price changes that actually
occurred on foreign agricultural markets during
the 1880‘s, American farmers would have most
preferred yearly price changes that were
(A) much smaller and in the same direction
(B) much smaller but in the opposite direction
(C) slightly smaller and in the same direction
(D) similar in size but in the opposite direction
(E) slightly greater and in the same direction

上面的这些题 我自己试着分析过两三次了 答案都不能说服自己 感觉很牵强 请大家稍微指点一下
题目太多了 每个人的时间都很紧张 所以在这里感谢每一个回答问题的人 我真的会很感动 谢谢你们~~

题目果然很多，你可以看下置顶贴新G资料哈，里面有36套的参考分析。
挑个简单的先回答下
你第二篇
7. It can be inferred from the passage that if the
flock of birds described in lines 8-9 were
navigating by compass sense alone, they would, after the storm, fly
定位到原文第五行
compass sense.‖ For example, they can use the position of the Sun or stars, along with the time of day, to find north.
了解compass sense的行为（罗盘一样的功能，可以了解方向，但也只能识别当前方向） 所以答案选east。。

顺便问个问题：该题的第六题主旨题
6. The main idea of the passage is that
(A) migration over land requires a simpler
explanation than migration over water
does
(B) the means by which animals migrate over
water are complex and only partly
understood
(C) the ability of migrant animals to keep track
of time is related to their magnetic sense
(D) knowledge of geographic location is
essential to migrants with little or no
compass sense
(E) explanations of how animals migrate tend to
replace, rather than build on, one
another
答案为什么是B呢？ the means by which animals migrate over
water are complex and only partly understood。
最后一句话不是已经说明了是地球磁场的作用，为什么还是partly understood？

clearly contribute to their ―compass sense.
这里为什么会提track of time?这里KW的变化让我一下子混乱了。。。
一不小心就选了C

我觉得可以从11行的 perhaps，以及16行的might 这两个表示可能性很小的推测词,
得出 the means by which -----and only partly understood.

我觉得动物的“biological clocks ”包括好多方面，比如感知时间和确定方位等等还有一些别的吧
“Birds, bees, and other
species can keep track of time without any sensory cues
Line from the outside world, and such ―biological clocks  ”只是说明了其中的一种情况，而这篇文章的大量篇幅都是在写动物们根据生物钟定位的情况，所以TS不应该是这句啊，还有咱们做阅读大部分情况下都是第一句话是TS啊，
还有B 和C 这两个选项是截然相反的， 所以----我觉得应该是这样理解吧
我的阅读也才刚刚起步 再有不到一个月就要考了 愁啊

刚刚我又仔细研究了一下 感觉还是不太懂
是不是原本For example, they can use the position of the Sun or stars, along with the time of day, to find north. 是说它们可以利用compress sense find north 吗
But compass sense alone cannot explain how birds navigate the ocean: after a flock traveling east is blown far south by a storm（这部分该怎么理解啊）, it will assume the proper northeasterly course to compensate.
真的不懂 晕死了~~麻烦再解释一下吧~~

哈哈，等offer闲来无事，回G版看看，lz好可爱。。。贴这么多题，而且还怕麻烦到大家。。。

过来人帮忙来了，请看下面：

第一个，根据题干的because space is so vast定位在10行的It is only because of the enormous interstellar distances一句。文中说因为星际距离太远以至于单位体积内很少的物质也显得显著了。说白了就是：密度小，但体积庞大，所以也很大量（质量大）。那么答案就是C了：即便稀疏分布的物质，只要足够远也可以被遮住。这个题干扰是A，但A说的是little of the interstellar material，其实不是物质少，而是物质的密度小。

7题，8-9行说，鸟往东飞，但被风暴吹到了南方，最后鸟会合适地选择往东北方飞（即还是可以到达目的地），这是compass sense无法解释的。说明如果只靠方向感，笨鸟就还是往东飞。

8题，文中有compass sense（看太阳和恒星结合时间导航），celestial navigation（看天体导航）和magnetic sense三种解释，那么只要能排除前两种，magnetic自然就被most strongly suggests了。A说鸽子可以在浓雾中调整方向，浓雾中就是说看不到太阳恒星和天体，故只能靠magnetic sense。BCDE可以类似排除。

下一题，很好定位，就在最后一句。而最后一句说Such were，说明对前一句举例，所以重点关注前一句在讲什么，前一句说：当技艺不足以控制艺术家的看法时，新的技巧就要被采用。所以答案选B，因为题干问如果linear perspective不行了会怎样，当然是会被新被采用的东西取代。

下一题，主旨题，文中说以前历史学家说农民不满来自于国内没有可开垦土地了，后面第5行转折说其实还有土地，并且第10行的obscure表明真正农民不满的原因是国际贸易。
典型观点对比，答案选A。

再下一题，根据题干定位到15行，接着15行那一句就有个consequently表结果，所以后面是重点，说农民不满不止国内，也冲击了一些内部边疆还没有消失（即还有可开垦土地）的国家。明显对应答案B。

最后。。。由于最后一句说农民不满其实是和国际市场农产品价格的decline（下降）同时出现。那根据题意说农民最希望price怎样，当然首先不能decline，所以在BD（opposite direction）里面选，然后比起much smaller in size的增长，农民朋友当然希望similar in size的增长。所以选D。


终于说完了，希望lz清楚些了。。。

哈哈 谢谢你的解答 祝你早日收到心仪的offer哦~~

刚刚仔细分析了一下你的解释 你讲的好清楚 可是还有一道题不太明白
是第一个题 我发现自己当时做的时候定位也对了 但是不太理解那句话什么意思
仔细分析了一下你的解释 还是搞不清楚 定位的那句话跟那道题的正确选项有什么关系呢   我怎么感觉它们风马牛不相及啊 好纠结

最后还想请教一下最近我做阅读的困惑 ：基本能读懂文章 还可以准确定位 但是我就是做不对题目 好惆怅哦 酱紫该怎么办呢
麻烦过来人给支点招呗 再次感谢~~天天快乐哦

linacreUID: 2468672

定位的那句话跟那道题的正确选项有什么关系呢   我怎么感觉它们风马牛不相及啊 好纠结
这道题是简单因果题，正确答案与定位的话一定是同义重复。
定位的那句话：so little material per unit of volume becomes so significant
正确选项：stars can be far enough from Earth to be obscured even by very sparsely distributed matter
已知so little material per unit of volume=very sparsely distributed matter=单位空间内不多的物质
原文即：单位空间并不多的物质变得很显著
正确选项即：单位空间并不多的物质可以遮住遥远恒星的光（因为距离长，所以单位空间虽不多但总量多，总量多了能遮住一些恒星的光，即显著）。
懂了吧？

最后还想请教一下最近我做阅读的困惑 ：基本能读懂文章 还可以准确定位 但是我就是做不对题目 好惆怅哦 酱紫该怎么办呢

能读懂文章还能准确定位还做不对，加上从这个题目来看，应该是同义重复转换的问题，建议多研究题目，看懂正确答案如何同义改写原文定位（比如刚才那个题目，其实就是说“物质能遮住恒星的光”，即是“显著”的一种具体形式，这个一定要能看出来）。
