雅思c15阅读t1难吗?
这题我做过,难度一般吧! 题目是关于“法国政府对牛群数量的统计”。文章比较长,有3000多词(对于雅思阅读来说,一般建议阅读量在600字左右,太难的文章容易失分)。
题目中要求找的有2个,一个是答案出现在文章中的段落位置,另一个是段落主题句。第一个比较简单,答案出现的位置在文中用[ ]标记出来了;第二个就有点需要思考了——哪段主旨符合‘the government’s view on the number of cattle in France’呢?是第一段吗?它的主旨是‘the French government is reluctant to release figures about the number of its citizens’,还是第二段?它的主旨是‘French farmers are proud of their country and its food products'。还是第三段?它的主旨是‘farmers are having a hard time making ends meet’?
如果单纯看题目要求,似乎每一个选项都可以选择,而答案也的确给了每个选项出现的段落。但是,题目问了什么?问了‘the answer to question 2 is …’那答案应该是问答题的主干部分,而不是答主所给的几个段落。只要把段落主旨和题目问的问题联系起来,答案其实就很清楚了。
这题的答案是: The main point made by each of the first three paragraphs is that there is disagreement between members of 'the French public' (paragraph 1) / 'the government' (paragraph 2)/ and 'members of the farming community'(paragraph 3) about what the true numbers are.
The fourth paragraph supports this view with evidence from an official report that 'the figure for French livestock was 40% lower than other recent estimates'. So, together these four paragraphs explain why neither side will accept the other's claim about the real size of the French cattle population.
