劍橋雅思11Test3Passage1閱讀答案解析 The Story of Silk

第1題答案：tea

對應原文：第1段：one of the cocoons that she had collected landed in the hot tea and started to unravel into a fine thread

答案解析：根據(jù)3000BC定位到第一段。題干中的fell into與原文中的landed in同義替換，因為題目要求只能填一個詞，因此舍棄hot，確定tea為答案。

第2題答案：reel

對應原文：第1段：She also devised a special reel to draw the fibres from the cocoon into a single thread so that they would be strong enough to be woven into fabric

答案解析：順著上一題往下，題干中的invented與原文中的devised同義替換，由此確定答案為reel。

第3題答案：women

對應原文：第2段：Originally, silkworm farming was solely restricted to women

答案解析：第1自然段主要講的是傳說而非具體生產(chǎn)，因此看到題干之后我們前往第2自然段中尋找。題干中的only與原文中的solely同義替換，由此確定答案為women。

第4題答案：royalty

對應原文：第2段：Silk quickly grew into a symbol of status, and originally, only royalty were entitled to have clothes made of silk.

答案解析：順著上一題往下，利用only定位到這個句子。通過詞性也好，修飾關(guān)系也好，或者句義也好，都可以很容易的確定royalty為答案。

第5題答案：currency

對應原文：第2段：Sometime during the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD), silk was so prized that it was also used as a unit of currency

答案解析：利用上一題和下一行的farmers縮小尋找范圍。a form of與a unit of同義替換，根據(jù)修飾關(guān)系，確定答案為currency。

第6題答案：paper

對應原文：第2段：The earliest indication of silk paper being used was discovered in the tomb of a noble who is estimated to have died around 168 AD.

答案解析：根據(jù)168AD定位到第2段的最后一句話。從題干中可以看出，空上填的應該是某種絲綢制品，只有paper能夠充當答案。

第7題答案：wool

對應原文：第3段：the lucrative trade route now known as the Silk Road, taking silk westward and bringing gold, silver and wool to the East.

答案解析：根據(jù)westward定位到第3段的第1句，題干中的precious metals對應原文中的gold和silver，只剩下wool可以作為答案。

第8題答案：monks

對應原文：第4段：According to another legend, monks working for the Byzantine emperor Justinian smuggled silkworm eggs to Constantinople (Istanbul in modern-day Turkey) in 550 AD

答案解析：根據(jù)550AD定位到第4段的這句話。從題干可以推測空上填的應該是做出這種行為的某種人，由此確定答案為monks。

第9題答案：nylon

對應原文：第5段：Then in the twentieth century, new manmade fibres, such as nylon, started to be used in what had traditionally been silk products, such as stockings and parachutes.

答案解析：根據(jù)20th century和manmade fibres定位到這句話，原文中給出的具體人造材料只有nylon一種，由此確定答案。

第10題答案：FALSE

對應原文：第3段：its most precious commodity, which was considered to be worth more than gold

答案解析：第3段指出，絲綢之路上的絲綢被認為比黃金更有價值。題干中關(guān)于黃金是最貴重的金屬的說法與此不符，由此判斷答案為FALSE。

第11題答案：TRUE

對應原文：第3段：Few merchants travelled the entire route; goods were handled mostly by a series of middlemen.

答案解析：第3段最后一句話指出，很少有商人走完整條路線。大多數(shù)情況下，商品都是通過一系列中間商交接運輸?shù)摹＜创蠖鄶?shù)商人只是完成絲綢之路的一部分。題干描述與此相符，由此判斷答案為FALSE。

第12題答案：FALSE

對應原文：第4段：The Byzantines were as secretive as the Chinese, however, and for many centuries the weaving and trading of silk fabric was a strict imperial monopoly.

答案解析：第4段中提到，拜占庭人跟中國人一樣保守秘密。好幾個世紀里，絲綢的紡織和貿(mào)易都是由國家嚴格壟斷的?？梢姲菡纪ト瞬]有將這一技術(shù)擴散到西方（是后面的阿拉伯人干的）。由此判斷答案為FALSE。

第13題答案：NOT GIVEN

對應原文：第5段：China has gradually recaptured its position as the world’s biggest producer and exporter of raw silk and silk yarn

答案解析：原文中只是提到中國是絲線的最大出口商，至于絲線在其出口產(chǎn)品中所占的比例如何則完全沒有提及。由此判斷答案為NOT GIVEN。
