四級寫作（長沙新東方 曹林權(quán) 胡彥博）
今年四級作文幾個話題有類似的地方，都更傾向于要求考生進行自身經(jīng)歷的描述和思考。這類考法與大家實際生活很相關(guān)，大家應(yīng)很有話說。
文章的結(jié)構(gòu)仍可以采取傳統(tǒng)的三段式。首都引出話題，簡要概括要描述的人或事；如果平鋪直述進入主體顯得有些蒼白簡單，于是可以稍加一句引入的句子，然后再開始引入要談?wù)摰娜嘶蚴虑椋恼卤泔@得自然很多。二段具體描述，并可分成兩到三個不同的方面來進行細(xì)節(jié)刻畫；這里要盡可能細(xì)致具體，切忌假大空。事實上第二段并沒有超出傳統(tǒng)議論的角度，即從原因和影響的角度展開思路。從原因角度可能更好展開，然后再通過簡單的例子對觀點進行輔佐。末段總結(jié)并引出對自己的影響。
文章不在詞難句長內(nèi)涵深，而在于用詞準(zhǔn)確、行文流暢、真實可信。下面幾篇范文供大家參考。
A course that impressed you most in college （長沙新東方 曹林權(quán)）
During my college life, there were so many fantastic courses impressing me deeply. Among all those fabulous educational programs, the set of lectures given by Professor Deng XueJian, an eminent professional in the field of zoology, exerted the hugest impact on me and my further study.
Clearly, so many great moments had I experienced in his class that I would like to list three of the best one. First and foremost, Prof. Deng never failed to engage us in his teaching by showing us numerous interesting pictures of the species only described in words in the textbook. In addition, Prof. Deng, more often than not, took us to participate in all kinds of community activities, publicizing the significance of protection towards endangered animals among the residents. The most admirable point of his course is that he combined the zoology with literature to demonstrate the beauty of zoology. For example, he introduced the diversity of the species by citing some famous poems.
Overall, in his class, not only did I acquire professional skills, but the interest towards nature and literature was ignited in my mind as well. I feel so lucky that I have got the chance to be instructed by him.
A camp activity that benefited you most （長沙新東方 曹林權(quán)）
When I was a college student I took part in a wide range of activities held in my school. Among all these fascinating pastimes, the one benefited me most is a contest on oral English, named the National English Contest for College Students, in which I ranked the third.
Obviously, this competition was a huge blessing in my study and life. Initially, it enabled me to enhance my oral English during the process of preparing for the competition. Furthermore, through the fierce contest, I found my own shortcomings in oral English and learned a lot from other excellent contestants. Last but not the least, several previous friends were made in that activity, who not only helped me a lot but became my best teachers in my way to study English.
Overall, through the competition, not only did I achieve a relatively good prize, but a clear self-estimation was made, which plays an indispensable role in one’s way to success. Thanks to it, I began to study English more diligent in my rest college life.
A classmate of yours who has influenced you most in college ( 長沙新東方 胡彥博)
Classmates around us are playing an essential role in one’s life. However, when it comes to the classmate who has influenced me most in my college, without question, Henry is the one who comes to my mind firstly.
Henry is my classmate during my 4-year college life. The reasons why I deem that Henry has influenced me most are as follows: in the first place, Henry is not only expert at his academic fields, but also adept in addressing all kinds of difficulties and predicaments we are confronted with in our daily life，which demonstrates a fitting example of how versatile a college student should be to me; in the second place, he has always been instructing us some valuable principles ranging from those virtues we should possess, to those capabilities we are supposed to be equipped with. For instance, that we are expected to be ready to lend a helping hand to those who are in need is the words he always reminds us.
To sum up, what Henry has done for us is a solid moral foundation that leads us to a promising direction, and what Henry has always been doing has influenced me most in my life values.

越來越多的年輕人正對旅游產(chǎn)生興趣，這是近年來的新趨勢。年輕游客數(shù)量的不斷增加，可以歸因于他們迅速提高的收入和探索外部世界的好奇心。隨著旅行多了,年輕人在大城市和景點花的時間少了，他們反而更為偏遠(yuǎn)的地方所吸引。有些人甚至選擇長途背包旅行。近的調(diào)查顯示，很多年輕人想要通過旅行體驗不同文化、豐富知識、拓寬視野。
It is a new trend in recent years that interest in travel of youths has increasingly arisen. The growing number of younger tourists is due to the fast improvement of their income and the curiosity to explore the external world. With their more and more journeys , time is spent less in big cities or famous attractions and more in remote areas. Some even choose to go backpacking. According to a recent survey, many young people would like to experience different cultures, to enrich their knowledge and to widen their vision through travel.
假日經(jīng)濟的現(xiàn)象表明：中國消費者的消費觀正在發(fā)生巨大變化。根據(jù)統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)，中國消費者的消費需求正在從基本生活必需品轉(zhuǎn)向?qū)π蓍e、舒適和個人發(fā)展的需求。同時，中國人的消費觀在蓬勃發(fā)展的假日經(jīng)濟中正變得成熟。因此產(chǎn)品結(jié)構(gòu)應(yīng)作相應(yīng)調(diào)整，來適應(yīng)社會的發(fā)展。另一方面，服務(wù)質(zhì)量要改善，以滿足人們提高生活質(zhì)量的要求。
The phenomenon of holiday economy shows that the consumption concept of Chinese is experiencing huge changes. According to statistics, the demands of Chinese consumers are transferring from basic necessities to relaxation, comfort and personal development. Meanwhile, Chines people’s views of consumption are becoming maturity during the vigorous development of holiday economy. Therefore, corresponding adjustment of the structure of products should be made to adapt to social development. On the other hand, services should be improved to satisfy people’s demand for an improved quality of life.
中國的互聯(lián)網(wǎng)是全世界發(fā)展快的。2010年，中國大概有4.2億網(wǎng)民，而且人數(shù)還在迅速的增長，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的日漸流行帶來了重大的社會變化，中國的網(wǎng)民往往不同于國外的網(wǎng)民，美國的網(wǎng)民更多的是受實際需要的驅(qū)使，用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)為工具發(fā)電子郵件，買賣商品，科學(xué)研究，規(guī)劃旅程或者付款，中國網(wǎng)民更多都是出于社交的原因使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)，因而更廣泛的使用論壇、博客、聊天室等。

By contrast, forums, blogs or chat rooms are more widely used in China in that Chines citizens generally surf the Internet on the purpose of social contact.
大熊貓是一種溫順的動物，長著獨特的黑白皮毛。因其數(shù)量極少，大熊貓已經(jīng)被列為瀕危物種。大熊貓對于世界自然基金會（WWF）有著特殊意義。自1961年該基金會成立以來，大熊貓就一直是它的徽標(biāo)。大熊貓是熊科中稀有的成員，主要生活在中國西南部的森林里。目前大約有1000只大熊貓。這些以竹為食的動物正面臨許多威脅。因此，確保大熊貓的生存比以往更重要。
Pandas, with special black and white fur, are mild animals. They were listed as endangered species due to their little amount. The panda has an unusual meaning to WWF because the picture of a panda has always been the logo of the foundation since it established in 1961. Being the rarest member in bear family, the panda live mostly in the forest in southwestern China. At present, there are roughly 1000 pandas. These animals, which feed on bamboo, are facing plenty of threats. As a result, it it more crucial than ever to ensure the existence of pandas.
四級閱讀（長沙新東方 羅文婷 任偉偉）
Passage 1 （長沙新東方 羅文婷）
文章出處：http://thevillager.com/2013/08/22/bike-store-owners-put-their-spin-on-new-bike-share/
New Yorkers are gradually getting used to more pedaling passengers on those blazing blue Citi Bikes. But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? At Gotham Bikes in Tribeca, a manager who gave his name as “Ben W.” said the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program. “It’s getting more people on the road, more people learning about the sport and getting involved,” he said. An employee at Danny’s Cycles in Gramercy said Citi Bike is a good option for people to ease into biking in a city famed for its vehicular congestion and aggressive drivers. “They can try out a bike without committing to buying one,” James Ryan said.
Rentals are not a big part of the business at either Gotham Bikes or Danny’s Cycles. But for Frank’s Bike Shop, a small business that has been at its current Lower East Side location on Grand St. since 1976, the bike-share program has been bad news. Owner Frank Arroyo said that his rental business has decreased by 90 percent since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month.
However, Ben said the bike-share is good for bike sales at his shop. “People have used the bike-share and realized how great it is to bike in the city, then decide that they want something nicer for themselves,” he noted.
Christian Farrell of Waterfront Bicycle Shop, on West St. just north of Christopher St., said initially he was concerned about bike-share, though, he admitted, “I was happy to see people on bikes.”
Farrell’s early concerns were echoed by Andrew Crooks, owner of NYC Velo, at 64 Second Ave. “It seemed like a great idea, but one that would be difficult to implement,” Crooks said of Citi Bike. He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. However, he said, it’s still too early to tell if his business has been impacted.
While it’s possible bike-share will cause a drop in business in the long run, Crooks allowed that the idea, as a whole, is good for the city.
56題 B
題干意思是：對于在紐約逐漸提升的Citi Bikes的使用，作者為關(guān)心的是什么。定位詞為Citi Bikes，因為是第一題，按順序原則先定位到第一段第一句。第一句陳述了在紐約Citi Bikes的使用漸漸被人們所習(xí)慣，是原文的同義改寫。按照金三句原則，看定位句的下一句But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? 作者立馬關(guān)心起local bike shops，而且問到了Citi Bikes是否收費的問題，答案選B
57題 C
定位詞為大寫人名Gotham，題干意思是：自行車共享計劃后Gotham的車行發(fā)生了什么。題干當(dāng)中的as a result of表示因果關(guān)系，我們要找到自行車共享計劃對gotham的商店帶來的一個結(jié)果。定位在第一段的第三行， Gotham Bikes的一個manager說道 “the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program.” 定位句中的due to（因為）是原文as a result of的取反改寫，我們要找的是結(jié)果，看到due to前面的部分——商店已經(jīng)看到在他們的整體銷量的一個提升。答案選C選項。
58題 B
題干意思是：為什么自行車共享計劃對于Frank’s Bike Shop來說是壞消息的？要找到一個原因。定位詞是大寫名詞Frank’s Bike Shop，定位到原文第二段第三行。定位句本身只是陳述事實，看定位詞的下一句找原因。F店的店主說道since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month.因為自行車共享計劃的推行，his rental business has decreased by 90 percent，他的rental business租借生意下降了百分之九十。答案選B，顧客都被Citi Bikes拉走了，就沒人來租自行車了。
59題 A
題干意思是：為什么Andrew Crooks認(rèn)為自行車共享計劃難以執(zhí)行？定位到文章第五段。第三句：He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. 他擔(dān)心經(jīng)驗不足的騎行者缺乏對騎行規(guī)則的意識以及來自非騎行者的反對。他的擔(dān)心有兩點，在答案中找到任何一點就可以，答案選A。經(jīng)驗不足的騎行者會破壞騎行規(guī)則。
60題 D
題干意思是：本地自行車行對自行車共享計劃的普遍態(tài)度是怎樣的？后一題，定位在后一段。盡管bike-share可能會導(dǎo)致行業(yè)內(nèi)長期的低迷狀態(tài)，但是as a whole總體來講，對應(yīng)到題干中的general，對整個城市是好的。選正態(tài)度的的答案，D。
選詞填空1：（長沙新東方 任偉偉）
原文如下，出自Newsweek. http://www.newsweek.com/chemicals-within-87375
As an Alaskan fisherman, Timothy June, 54, used to think that he was safe from industrial pollutants at his home in Haines—a town with a population of 2,400 people and 4,000 eagles, with 20 million acres of protected wilderness nearby. But in early 2007, June agreed to take part in a survey of 35 Americans from seven states. It was a biomonitoring project, in which people's blood and urine were tested for traces of chemicals—in this case, three potentially hazardous classes of compounds found in common household products like shampoo, tin cans, shower curtains and upholstery. The results—released in November in a report called "Is It in Us?" by a coalition of environmental groups—were not reassuring. Every one of the participants, ranging from an Illinois state legislator to a Massachusetts minister, tested positive for all three classes of contaminants. And while the simple presence of these chemicals doesn't necessarily indicate a health risk, the fact that typical Americans carry these chemicals at all shocked June and his fellow participants. As Stephanie Felten, 28, of Aurora, Ill., put it, "Why should chemical companies be allowed to roll the dice on my health?"
Clearly, there are chemicals in our bodies that don't belong there. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducts a large, ongoing survey that has found 148 chemicals in Americans of all ages, including lead, mercury, dioxins and PCBs. Other scientists have detected antibacterial agents from liquid soaps in breast milk, infants' cord blood and the urine of young girls. And in 2005, the Environmental Working Group found an average of 200 chemicals in the cord blood of 10 newborns, including known carcinogens and neurotoxins. "Our babies are being born pre-polluted," says Sharyle Patton of Commonweal, which cosponsored "Is It in Us?" "This is going to be the next big environmental issue after climate change."
曾經(jīng)在課上說過單詞填空有三個做題步驟，分別是選項的詞性辨析，原文缺失成分的詞性猜測以及詞性相符的選項逐一代入，所以我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，單詞的意思并不是解決這道題目的關(guān)鍵，相反的，對于詞性的了解更加重要。
A. analyses 動詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式 分析
B. average 形容詞/名詞/動詞（形容詞的用法為常見）平均的；平均數(shù)；均分
C. belong 不及物動詞（常與介詞to搭配使用） 屬于
D. demonstrated 動詞的過去分詞（可能作為形容詞）證明，表露
E. excess 名詞（不可數(shù)）/形容詞 過度；過度的
F. extending 動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞（可能作為形容詞和名詞） 擴展；延伸
G. habitually 副詞 習(xí)慣性地
H. necessarily 副詞 必然地
I. products 名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式 產(chǎn)品
J. ranging 動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞（可能作為形容詞和名詞）排列；（在范圍內(nèi)）變動
K. released 動詞的過去分詞（可能作為形容詞） 釋放;發(fā)布
L. shocked 動詞的過去分詞（可能作為形容詞） 震驚
M. simple 形容詞 簡單的
N. survey 名詞的單數(shù)形式 調(diào)查
O. traces 名詞的復(fù)試形式/動詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式 痕跡；追蹤
36. N 空前是不定冠詞a，空后是介詞of，本空缺可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)形式，排除復(fù)數(shù)名詞選項I和O以及現(xiàn)在分詞做名詞的選項F和J；而且因為是不定冠詞a，所以這一空所缺的名詞一定不是元音開頭的單詞，排除E選項。答案鎖定N選項。
37. O空前是介詞for，空后是介詞of，本空需要填的是名詞，以及空前沒有冠詞a或the，那這一空只能填不可數(shù)名詞或者名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式，詞性符合的有E, F, I, O，結(jié)合語意鎖定O答案，這個項目檢測人們的血液和尿液是為了追蹤化學(xué)制品。
38. I 本空所在分句 “three…and shower curtains”作為伴隨性的狀語，可以理解成“三種有潛在危險的化合物在常見的家庭產(chǎn)品中被發(fā)現(xiàn)，比如面霜，馬口鐵罐頭和浴簾?！?BR> 39. K 本空所在分句“_____in November in a report called ‘Is it in us?’ by an environmental group”作為插入語修飾主語the results, 已知部分的意思可以理解為“11月，在由一個環(huán)保組織所做的名為‘是我們嗎？’的報告中…的結(jié)果相當(dāng)令人擔(dān)憂”，也就是這個結(jié)果是被一群人給…的，可想而知這一空填的應(yīng)該是一個過去分詞做the results的后置定語，備選選項中符合要求的只有D, K和L，首先排除L選項shocked，因為結(jié)果不可能被一群人震驚。在D和K的取舍上，其實不管是某種結(jié)果“被證實”，還是“被發(fā)布”都說得通，但因為D在后文中的一個選項更適合，所以本題選擇K。
40. J 本空所在分句 “_____from … to a…”前后各有一個逗號，說明這部分作為插入語修飾主語everyone of the participants, 因此本空需要動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞或過去分詞形式，在備選選項中range from… to …是固定搭配，表示“從…到…”，選擇J答案。
41. M 空前是定冠詞the，空后是名詞presence（存在），本空應(yīng)該填形容詞。已知部分可以翻譯成“盡管…的這些化學(xué)制品的存在不能…表示有健康的風(fēng)險”，備選選項B, D, E, F, L, M中，B, F和L因為語意出入太大首先排除。E選項的excess做形容詞表示“過多的”，但文章的前一句話只是提到“每一個參與者都被檢測出對這三種污染物是呈陽性的”，這并不能說明化學(xué)制品是過度存在，排除E。另外，根據(jù)這句話的意思我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)這種化學(xué)制品的存在是很普遍的，因為M選項的simple能夠表達(dá)這一層含義。
42. H 空前是助動詞的否定形式do not, 空后是動詞indicate，本空只能填修飾動詞的副詞，備選選項中只有G和H是動詞，結(jié)合這句話的意思“盡管被證實的這些化學(xué)制品的存在并不…表示有健康的風(fēng)險”，顯然necessarily更符合句子的意思，選擇H。
43. L 前半句話中的while在這里表示“盡管”，引導(dǎo)一個讓步狀語從句，因此主句的 “the fact….participants”應(yīng)該是一個完整的句子。同時主句中主語是the fact并且引導(dǎo)了一個同位語從句，主句的大致意思可以理解為“典型的美國人都攜帶這些化學(xué)制品的事實…了June和其他的參與者”。由此可知本句缺少主句的謂語，這一空需要動詞。但是本空所需動詞的時態(tài)是一個需要斟酌的細(xì)節(jié)，首先，假設(shè)這一空需要的是一般現(xiàn)在時，既然主語是the fact那么動詞就一定得是第三人稱單數(shù)形式，而選項中只有A和O符合這一要求，但再結(jié)合詞意會發(fā)現(xiàn)，一個表示分析一個表示追蹤，都說不通，因此這一空只能填動詞的過去式，但這一時態(tài)的要求在已知句子里是看不出來的，所以很容易引起同學(xué)們的糾結(jié)?？蛇x的動詞過去式就只剩下L選項shocked，因此本題選擇L。
44. C 空前是don’t，空后是副詞there，因此本空需要動詞原形，備選答案只有belong，結(jié)合句意翻譯成“很明顯，我們的身體里存在著一些不屬于那的化學(xué)制品”，完全正確，選擇C答案。
45. B 空前是不定冠詞an，空后是介詞of，本空缺可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)形式，且為元音開頭，鎖定B答案。

越來越多的年輕人正對旅游產(chǎn)生興趣，這是近年來的新趨勢。年輕游客數(shù)量的不斷增加，可以歸因于他們迅速提高的收入和探索外部世界的好奇心。隨著旅行多了,年輕人在大城市和景點花的時間少了，他們反而更為偏遠(yuǎn)的地方所吸引。有些人甚至選擇長途背包旅行。近的調(diào)查顯示，很多年輕人想要通過旅行體驗不同文化、豐富知識、拓寬視野。

New Yorkers are gradually getting used to more pedaling passengers on those blazing blue Citi Bikes. But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? At Gotham Bikes in Tribeca, a manager who gave his name as “Ben W.” said the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program. “It’s getting more people on the road, more people learning about the sport and getting involved,” he said. An employee at Danny’s Cycles in Gramercy said Citi Bike is a good option for people to ease into biking in a city famed for its vehicular congestion and aggressive drivers. “They can try out a bike without committing to buying one,” James Ryan said.
Rentals are not a big part of the business at either Gotham Bikes or Danny’s Cycles. But for Frank’s Bike Shop, a small business that has been at its current Lower East Side location on Grand St. since 1976, the bike-share program has been bad news. Owner Frank Arroyo said that his rental business has decreased by 90 percent since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month.
However, Ben said the bike-share is good for bike sales at his shop. “People have used the bike-share and realized how great it is to bike in the city, then decide that they want something nicer for themselves,” he noted.
Christian Farrell of Waterfront Bicycle Shop, on West St. just north of Christopher St., said initially he was concerned about bike-share, though, he admitted, “I was happy to see people on bikes.”
Farrell’s early concerns were echoed by Andrew Crooks, owner of NYC Velo, at 64 Second Ave. “It seemed like a great idea, but one that would be difficult to implement,” Crooks said of Citi Bike. He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. However, he said, it’s still too early to tell if his business has been impacted.
While it’s possible bike-share will cause a drop in business in the long run, Crooks allowed that the idea, as a whole, is good for the city.
56題 B
題干意思是：對于在紐約逐漸提升的Citi Bikes的使用，作者為關(guān)心的是什么。定位詞為Citi Bikes，因為是第一題，按順序原則先定位到第一段第一句。第一句陳述了在紐約Citi Bikes的使用漸漸被人們所習(xí)慣，是原文的同義改寫。按照金三句原則，看定位句的下一句But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? 作者立馬關(guān)心起local bike shops，而且問到了Citi Bikes是否收費的問題，答案選B
57題 C
定位詞為大寫人名Gotham，題干意思是：自行車共享計劃后Gotham的車行發(fā)生了什么。題干當(dāng)中的as a result of表示因果關(guān)系，我們要找到自行車共享計劃對gotham的商店帶來的一個結(jié)果。定位在第一段的第三行， Gotham Bikes的一個manager說道 “the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program.” 定位句中的due to（因為）是原文as a result of的取反改寫，我們要找的是結(jié)果，看到due to前面的部分——商店已經(jīng)看到在他們的整體銷量的一個提升。答案選C選項。
58題 B
題干意思是：為什么自行車共享計劃對于Frank’s Bike Shop來說是壞消息的？要找到一個原因。定位詞是大寫名詞Frank’s Bike Shop，定位到原文第二段第三行。定位句本身只是陳述事實，看定位詞的下一句找原因。F店的店主說道since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month.因為自行車共享計劃的推行，his rental business has decreased by 90 percent，他的rental business租借生意下降了百分之九十。答案選B，顧客都被Citi Bikes拉走了，就沒人來租自行車了。
59題 A
題干意思是：為什么Andrew Crooks認(rèn)為自行車共享計劃難以執(zhí)行？定位到文章第五段。第三句：He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. 他擔(dān)心經(jīng)驗不足的騎行者缺乏對騎行規(guī)則的意識以及來自非騎行者的反對。他的擔(dān)心有兩點，在答案中找到任何一點就可以，答案選A。經(jīng)驗不足的騎行者會破壞騎行規(guī)則。
60題 D
題干意思是：本地自行車行對自行車共享計劃的普遍態(tài)度是怎樣的？后一題，定位在后一段。盡管bike-share可能會導(dǎo)致行業(yè)內(nèi)長期的低迷狀態(tài)，但是as a whole總體來講，對應(yīng)到題干中的general，對整個城市是好的。選正態(tài)度的的答案，D。
選詞填空1：（長沙新東方 任偉偉）
原文如下，出自Newsweek. http://www.newsweek.com/chemicals-within-87375
As an Alaskan fisherman, Timothy June, 54, used to think that he was safe from industrial pollutants at his home in Haines—a town with a population of 2,400 people and 4,000 eagles, with 20 million acres of protected wilderness nearby. But in early 2007, June agreed to take part in a survey of 35 Americans from seven states. It was a biomonitoring project, in which people's blood and urine were tested for traces of chemicals—in this case, three potentially hazardous classes of compounds found in common household products like shampoo, tin cans, shower curtains and upholstery. The results—released in November in a report called "Is It in Us?" by a coalition of environmental groups—were not reassuring. Every one of the participants, ranging from an Illinois state legislator to a Massachusetts minister, tested positive for all three classes of contaminants. And while the simple presence of these chemicals doesn't necessarily indicate a health risk, the fact that typical Americans carry these chemicals at all shocked June and his fellow participants. As Stephanie Felten, 28, of Aurora, Ill., put it, "Why should chemical companies be allowed to roll the dice on my health?"
Clearly, there are chemicals in our bodies that don't belong there. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducts a large, ongoing survey that has found 148 chemicals in Americans of all ages, including lead, mercury, dioxins and PCBs. Other scientists have detected antibacterial agents from liquid soaps in breast milk, infants' cord blood and the urine of young girls. And in 2005, the Environmental Working Group found an average of 200 chemicals in the cord blood of 10 newborns, including known carcinogens and neurotoxins. "Our babies are being born pre-polluted," says Sharyle Patton of Commonweal, which cosponsored "Is It in Us?" "This is going to be the next big environmental issue after climate change."
曾經(jīng)在課上說過單詞填空有三個做題步驟，分別是選項的詞性辨析，原文缺失成分的詞性猜測以及詞性相符的選項逐一代入，所以我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，單詞的意思并不是解決這道題目的關(guān)鍵，相反的，對于詞性的了解更加重要。
A. analyses 動詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式 分析
B. average 形容詞/名詞/動詞（形容詞的用法為常見）平均的；平均數(shù)；均分
C. belong 不及物動詞（常與介詞to搭配使用） 屬于
D. demonstrated 動詞的過去分詞（可能作為形容詞）證明，表露
E. excess 名詞（不可數(shù)）/形容詞 過度；過度的
F. extending 動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞（可能作為形容詞和名詞） 擴展；延伸
G. habitually 副詞 習(xí)慣性地
H. necessarily 副詞 必然地
I. products 名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式 產(chǎn)品
J. ranging 動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞（可能作為形容詞和名詞）排列；（在范圍內(nèi)）變動
K. released 動詞的過去分詞（可能作為形容詞） 釋放;發(fā)布
L. shocked 動詞的過去分詞（可能作為形容詞） 震驚
M. simple 形容詞 簡單的
N. survey 名詞的單數(shù)形式 調(diào)查
O. traces 名詞的復(fù)試形式/動詞的第三人稱單數(shù)形式 痕跡；追蹤
36. N 空前是不定冠詞a，空后是介詞of，本空缺可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)形式，排除復(fù)數(shù)名詞選項I和O以及現(xiàn)在分詞做名詞的選項F和J；而且因為是不定冠詞a，所以這一空所缺的名詞一定不是元音開頭的單詞，排除E選項。答案鎖定N選項。
37. O空前是介詞for，空后是介詞of，本空需要填的是名詞，以及空前沒有冠詞a或the，那這一空只能填不可數(shù)名詞或者名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式，詞性符合的有E, F, I, O，結(jié)合語意鎖定O答案，這個項目檢測人們的血液和尿液是為了追蹤化學(xué)制品。
38. I 本空所在分句 “three…and shower curtains”作為伴隨性的狀語，可以理解成“三種有潛在危險的化合物在常見的家庭產(chǎn)品中被發(fā)現(xiàn)，比如面霜，馬口鐵罐頭和浴簾?！?BR> 39. K 本空所在分句“_____in November in a report called ‘Is it in us?’ by an environmental group”作為插入語修飾主語the results, 已知部分的意思可以理解為“11月，在由一個環(huán)保組織所做的名為‘是我們嗎？’的報告中…的結(jié)果相當(dāng)令人擔(dān)憂”，也就是這個結(jié)果是被一群人給…的，可想而知這一空填的應(yīng)該是一個過去分詞做the results的后置定語，備選選項中符合要求的只有D, K和L，首先排除L選項shocked，因為結(jié)果不可能被一群人震驚。在D和K的取舍上，其實不管是某種結(jié)果“被證實”，還是“被發(fā)布”都說得通，但因為D在后文中的一個選項更適合，所以本題選擇K。
40. J 本空所在分句 “_____from … to a…”前后各有一個逗號，說明這部分作為插入語修飾主語everyone of the participants, 因此本空需要動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞或過去分詞形式，在備選選項中range from… to …是固定搭配，表示“從…到…”，選擇J答案。
41. M 空前是定冠詞the，空后是名詞presence（存在），本空應(yīng)該填形容詞。已知部分可以翻譯成“盡管…的這些化學(xué)制品的存在不能…表示有健康的風(fēng)險”，備選選項B, D, E, F, L, M中，B, F和L因為語意出入太大首先排除。E選項的excess做形容詞表示“過多的”，但文章的前一句話只是提到“每一個參與者都被檢測出對這三種污染物是呈陽性的”，這并不能說明化學(xué)制品是過度存在，排除E。另外，根據(jù)這句話的意思我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)這種化學(xué)制品的存在是很普遍的，因為M選項的simple能夠表達(dá)這一層含義。
42. H 空前是助動詞的否定形式do not, 空后是動詞indicate，本空只能填修飾動詞的副詞，備選選項中只有G和H是動詞，結(jié)合這句話的意思“盡管被證實的這些化學(xué)制品的存在并不…表示有健康的風(fēng)險”，顯然necessarily更符合句子的意思，選擇H。
43. L 前半句話中的while在這里表示“盡管”，引導(dǎo)一個讓步狀語從句，因此主句的 “the fact….participants”應(yīng)該是一個完整的句子。同時主句中主語是the fact并且引導(dǎo)了一個同位語從句，主句的大致意思可以理解為“典型的美國人都攜帶這些化學(xué)制品的事實…了June和其他的參與者”。由此可知本句缺少主句的謂語，這一空需要動詞。但是本空所需動詞的時態(tài)是一個需要斟酌的細(xì)節(jié)，首先，假設(shè)這一空需要的是一般現(xiàn)在時，既然主語是the fact那么動詞就一定得是第三人稱單數(shù)形式，而選項中只有A和O符合這一要求，但再結(jié)合詞意會發(fā)現(xiàn)，一個表示分析一個表示追蹤，都說不通，因此這一空只能填動詞的過去式，但這一時態(tài)的要求在已知句子里是看不出來的，所以很容易引起同學(xué)們的糾結(jié)?？蛇x的動詞過去式就只剩下L選項shocked，因此本題選擇L。
44. C 空前是don’t，空后是副詞there，因此本空需要動詞原形，備選答案只有belong，結(jié)合句意翻譯成“很明顯，我們的身體里存在著一些不屬于那的化學(xué)制品”，完全正確，選擇C答案。
45. B 空前是不定冠詞an，空后是介詞of，本空缺可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)形式，且為元音開頭，鎖定B答案。
