D.305. 答案与解析 本篇文章为新闻报道类文体报道索马里海盗抢劫三艘泰国渔船并引用了官员的话让读者了解当前的索马里海盗的形势 1.A细节理解题“TherobbingofthethreeshipsSundaywasabout600milesoutsidethenormaloperationareafortheinternationalforce”以及“OnceyourethatfaroutitsjusttheIndianOcean.”句意为“这次海盗袭击发生在国际护卫部队正常保护区域六百英里外”“一旦你到了那么远那就是印度洋了”可知正确答案为A项 2.B主旨大意题文章主要报道发生在周末的对泰国渔船的袭击就此事件引出索马里海盗的袭击已超越国际保卫队的正常护卫范围而进入了更远的海域 3.B细节理解题依据.theinternationalpatrolsagainstpirateswerehavinga“markedeffectonpirateactivityinthearea”及OnceyourethatfaroutitsjusttheIndianOceananditmeansyourelookingattradegoingfromtheGulftoAsiafromAsiatoSouthAfrica.可知应是巡逻难度加大了 4.D推理计算题由文章首句“SomalipiratesrobbedthreeThaifishingshipswith77sailorsonboard.”及“BeforetheSundayrobbingpiratesheld11shipsand228sailors.”可知到发报道为止索马里海盗应劫持水手77+228=305人 (二)阅读真题之科普小品 Forthosewhostudythedevelopmentofintelligence(智力)intheanimalworldself?awarenessisanimportantmeasurement.Ananimalthatisaware(意识)ofitselfhasahighlevelofintelligence.
