36、愿意住在大城市。 2一些人愿意住在小城镇或乡村。 3自己的看法。 B To live in a large city or in a small town or village?/B（分数：106.00）_正确答案：()解析：B To live in a large city or in a small town or village?/B So far as living in a large city or a small town or village is concerned, it varies from people to people. Some choose to live i
37、n a large city and some prefer living in a small town or village. Of course, there are some reasons for those who prefer living in a large city. First, they think living in a large city is much more modern than living in a town or village because there are lots of skyscrapers, tree-lined streets and
38、 big department stores. Second, they think that shops, schools and hospitals in a large city make it convenient to live in a large city. However, there are some people who dont agree to file idea of living in a large city. They argue there are many disadvantages of living in a large city. For exampl
39、e, a large city is very noisy and crowded. And whats more, the air there cant be clean because it is polluted. According to them, a small town or village is a better place for living, for its quiet surrounding and clean air are good for our health. As for me, I agree with those who prefer living in
40、a small town. Though living in a large city is more convenient than living in a small town, the life in a small town should be happier because we are closer to the nature where we can see all kinds of plants and can hear birds sing, which are rare in a large city. And with the fresh air we are sure
41、to be much healthier. Therefore, I would rather live in a small town than live in a large city.二、BPart Reading (总题数：10，分数：70.00)2.In the United States, the president is directly elected by the people.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：本题信息在第一段第三句“In the United States,the Electoral College.”。从中可知，美国总统并不是由民众
42、直接选出来的。3.Voting is related to socioeconomic status.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：本题信息在第三段的第二句“The most important thing，to socioeconomic class.”。句中的“class”和题干中的“status”属同义词，意为“社会地位，社会阶层”。因此，本题出题技巧又是“同义替换”。4.Young people are more active than their elders in Voting.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：第五段第一句“Voti
43、ng is also much more common among older than young people”。本段第三句“In fact,their elders”也加强了题干的意思。5.One reason of the low turnout is that the non-voters passively agree to what government is doing.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：第七段“One reasonwhat government is doig”的意思是：投票率的降低是人民对政府所作所为的一种被动赞同的体现形式。句中 co
44、nsent 一词与题干中的 agreement 一词为同义词。6.Turnout is proportionally related to media spending.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：本题对应信息在第八段第三句“In fact,the lower the turnout.”。本句的大意是：投票率的高低与媒体宣传成本是成反比例的。句中的关键“inversely”(成反比例)与题干中的“proportionally”(成比例)互为反义词。知道了这一点，题目就不难做了。7.Vice presidents stand a great chance of win
45、ning presidential elections.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：第四个小标题下第二段第二句“Vice presidentsin this country”说明了美国总统选举史上的一个怪现象：副总统也经常参选总统职位，但在乔治布什之前，还没有一位能获胜。题干中的“stand a great chance”这一词组可能会成为部分考生的障碍。它的意思为“有机会；有可能”。8.George Washington was the first president of the United States.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：NG）解析：本题用了一个常识来误导考生。是的，乔治华盛顿是美国第一任总统，但这一信息并没有在文章中提及。四级新题型的快速阅读这一板块中，最容易出错的就是“NG”这一题型，因为它经常与“N”相混淆。9.About 1 of non-voters investigated in 1990 stated they did not vote because it was too difficult.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：one-quarter）解析：本题相应信息在第三个小标题下第四段的第二句“About one-quartertoo difficult.”。
