Answer 1

分析 這是一篇說(shuō)明文．作者介紹了英吉利海峽之間的輪渡．

解答 CBAC
68．C   主旨大意題．本文主要介紹了英吉利海峽之間的輪渡，因此C為正確答案．
69  B   詞義猜測(cè)題．從后一句"The crew listens to BBC weather reports four times a day． Or they sometimes get gale warnings from local radio station"中的warning判斷，harzard表示"危險(xiǎn)"．所以選B．
70   A  推理判斷題．從warning 可推斷是有危險(xiǎn)，輪渡當(dāng)然要停止工作；根據(jù)第一段"Ferries operate all year round to carry people across the Channel，and they are busy most of the year． January is the only quiet month nowadays．"可知B錯(cuò)誤；選項(xiàng)C文章沒(méi)有提到；選項(xiàng)D文章中有明確的表述，不能作為推理題的答案．
71  C   主旨大意題．文章主要介紹了英吉利海峽的輪渡．和交通運(yùn)輸有關(guān)，所以選擇C．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力，做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進(jìn)行比較，再做出正確的選擇．在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀(guān)想象代替文章的事實(shí)，要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．
