　　3.詞匯搭配題.首先分析這句話the environment will be increasingly influential in years to __3__.注意到其時(shí)態(tài)為將來時(shí),而to __3__在文中為不定時(shí)作定語,修飾years.而選擇的詞匯應(yīng)該符合該句將來時(shí)的事態(tài)并且意思通順.to come的意思為即將到來的.

　　4.語境題.本題第一眼看無法確定該選擇哪個(gè)答案,但繼續(xù)讀下去可以發(fā)現(xiàn),本段的結(jié)構(gòu)為總分結(jié)構(gòu),即本句話是該段的總結(jié)句.分析下面的內(nèi)容可以發(fā)現(xiàn),該段主要是講述關(guān)于室內(nèi)裝修的,所以該空應(yīng)該選擇indoor.

　　16.語境題.分析本句But our current industrial systems are __16__ causing these conditions, whether we like it or not.本題的解答有賴于對(duì)后半句的意思的理解.后半句的意思為無論我們喜不喜歡它.由此可以推斷出引起的這些情況是必然發(fā)生的,考察四個(gè)選項(xiàng),可知應(yīng)該選擇含有不可避免地意思的inevitably.

　　19.語境題.分析本句話Were giving people high-quality, healthful products and an opportunity to make choices that have a __19__ effect on the world.根據(jù)我講過的標(biāo)志詞法,注意到句中的and,所以and前后的兩個(gè)分句的意思是相近的.前半個(gè)句子的意思是我們正在給人們高質(zhì)量,健康的商品.分析and后面的半個(gè)句子,在句中含有一個(gè)定語從句that have a __19__ effect,先行詞為choices,換句話說這個(gè)定語從句是修飾choices的.所以空格19所填入的形容詞所表達(dá)的意思應(yīng)該是和前半個(gè)句子是相近的,考察四個(gè)選項(xiàng),應(yīng)該選擇含有有益的意思的beneficial.

　　20.詞匯搭配題.首先考察四個(gè)選項(xiàng),full, total和complete都是用來修飾數(shù)量多的，而entireentire 是指一樣?xùn)|西的全部，也就是說整體.注意到本文的最后一句Portland, Seattle and Boston have said they want to be green cities. Chicago wants to be the greenest city in the world.說明并不是全部城市都采取了這個(gè)方法.所以應(yīng)該選擇entire表示整個(gè)城市.
