sec 43-1: Even though formidable winters are the norm in the Dakotas, many people were unprepared for the _____ of the blizzard of 1888. A) inevitability B) ferocity C) importance D) probability E) mildness 答案:B 問題: 為什麼A選項不行呢...對應到"norm"這個字,原本是一個常規 也就是他其實是不可避免的(暴風一定會來),"但是"人們卻 unprepared 感覺也滿順的呀~"~ 如果是ferocity,感覺就沒有判斷前後文的必要了... sec 47-2 Because many of the minerals found on the ocean floor are still _____ on land, where mining is relatively inexpensive, mining the ocean floor has yet to become a _____ enterprise. A) scarce ; common B) accessible ; marginal C) unidentified ; subsidized D) conserved ; public E) plentiful ; profitable 答案是:E 問題: 感覺最後一句好像少了否定的詞(not之類的) 因為翻譯說:因為很多在海底發現的礦物質在陸地上仍然豐富,而開採陸地相對 而言也不昂貴,所以開採海底到目前為止仍然"不能"成為一項有利可圖的任務 但英文原文中只有yet 後面沒有not 雖然yet常出現在具有否定意義的句子內..但那也要加not才成立 所以覺得這句翻起來好怪... sec. 48-1 Nearly two-third of the country's mushroom crop is produced by 160 growers in a single county, the greatest _____ growers anywhere. A) cause of B) agreement among C) indication of D) interaction between E) concentration of 答案看起來很明顯是E,的確正確答案也是E 問題: D的答案錯在哪裡呢?我會選D是因為:160說不定不算多,在別的地方可能也差不 多有這種數量的grower.但就是因為此地的grower們會互相交配影響(可能和氣候 等等有關),所以更能生出比預想更多的蘑菇.... 可能是我想太多...但是總覺得題目不夠清楚.. 感謝大家~ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.231.184.73

應該更好吧。用inevitability有種事先預測到的感覺,
