剑桥雅思16 解析Test3阅读答案

Questions 1-5
Do the following statements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 1?
4. The Romans caled the Mediterranean Sea Mare Nostrum because they dominated its use.
第 4题答案：NOT GIVEN
解析：定位词：Mare Nostrum,dominated
对应原文第三段的最后一句:
Eventually,Rome’s navy became the largest and most powerful in the Mediterranean, and the Romans had control over what they therefore called Mare Nostrum meaning ‘our sea’.
题干:The Romans called the Mediterranean Sea Mare Nostrum because they dominated its use.
译文:罗马人称地中海为“我们的海”，因为它们主宰了地中海的用途。
这个问题有两个词是斜体，可以轻松定位到第三段的最后一句。这个问题有一个同义替换，那就是dominae被原文的contol取代 over,原文中还出现了表因果词“therefore”，与题干的because相匹配；然后根据句子的意思来判断这个问题选择true.
5. Most rowers on ships were people from the Roman army.
第 5题答案：TRUE
解析：定位词：rowers,Roman army
对应原文第四段倒数第二句：
It is worth noting that contrary to popular perception, rowers were not slaves but mostly Roman citizens enroled in the military.
题干:Most rowers on ships were people from the Roman army.
译文:船上的桨手大多来自罗马军队。
这个话题可以通过rower定位到第四段，然后通过army定位到military；原文是罗马市民，但有一个修饰语是有限的。这些罗马市民主要来自军队，所以这个问题可以通过句子的意思来判断.
