[B]Uniformity of Maritime Law[/B]
注：属于8＋分的文章，值得分析，经常研究这种程度的才能速成高分, 注意第四段不考标题

1.选A, 用排除法, unification 和 uniformity 近义, 意思是统一, 和标题最接近; unity 指团结, 也是近义，但本文论述的核心内容不含有团结之意, 差别细微, 这题考的不仅是中心，而且是词性

2.vi, What does CMI do? 很明显，下定义
…(CMI) is a non-governmental international institution…

3.ix, Uniformity of maritime law
乃全文的中心段落！uniformity分别在正数、倒数第二行出现2次，依次论述定义和获取手段(means)

4.i, First convention of Comite Maritime International 拿分题
…one of the most successful conventions…was the first CMI convention-

5.iii, The convention having been revised three times 玩数字游戏，找出顺序
The text of the first…The CMI had a second go…embrace the third CMI…

6.v, The convention with the most signature states 找出最高级别
…the most successful maritime law convention of all time…ratified by 103 states…

7.vii, Incompatible time scale 难就难在篇幅很长，而且找不到显著的信号词，为释意手法，可留到最后做，不必与之硬碰硬，如何解决？找key sentence，即
Convention and other unifying instruments are born in adversity.
born in adversity 与 incompatible 近义, 扫描本段后发现不少与时间有关的句子，即找到了time scale的依据

8.ii, Ineffective drafting 难在判断虚拟语气和近义词组
关键是要找到与ineffective相对应的句子，即致命的最后一句！
Whilst it may have drawn…it was not preceded by a careful review of…

请问最后一句的准确意思是很么？谢谢

核心含义是，起草有可能从支持的3个州制定的法律中汲取灵感，但它没有被大多数的州仔细核实

可是preced这个词的意思并没有显现出来呀。
我是不是太钻牛角了。

precede 先于，领先，这里可以译为事先，精确讲就是
...但它没有事先被大多数的州仔细核实

钻牛角尖是鼓励的，不过钻之前要多推敲推敲，才有收获
