On a typical flight, there’s a fierce fight for scarce overhead bin space, extending the boarding process. Bags that are stuffed under seats make passengers even more unfortable.There has got to be a better way. In fact, there is. Here’s what a more sensible system would look like:No fee for the first piece of checked luggage. It would be better if airlines simply raised fares( 機票) instead of fees. Limit the carryon size and charge for large carryons. Use templates( 標(biāo)尺) at the security checkpoints to cut off the monster bags that now often escape airline staff’s notice until they’re right at the door of the plane. Tax the airlines’ ine from fees the same way that fares are taxed. Currently, the fees are tax free, encouraging airlines to generate ine through fees rather than fare increases.We’re sympathetic to the airline industry’s need to make money, but the baggagefees—previously intended to offset rising fuel costs—have bee an interruption that slows down the security check, offloads costs onto fliers and makes the boarding process even more unpleasant than it already is.1. What makes the air travelers most frustrated at the airport? A. The limited overhead bin space for bags.B. The number of bags they carry onboardC. The long line at the baggage claim.D. The extra fee they have to pay for carryons.解析:B。短文細節(jié)題常見設(shè)問方式 Which of the following is true/false?

By defining religion as a sacred engagement with what is taken to be a spiritual reality, it is possible to consider the importance of religion in human life without making claims about what it really iseven a zone with clear boundaries. It is an aspect of human experience that may intersect, incorporate,biblical categories such as monotheism (belief in one god only)整篇文章是都是圍繞“religion”這個單詞展開說明,介紹這個單詞的起源以及它的含義和解釋。這道題還是需要通讀全文之后才能選出正確的答案,A這個選項表示科學(xué)中的假說和模型,這個只是文章第二段的描述和歸納,不全面。(二) 短文細節(jié)題短文細節(jié)題考查信息查找能力和句子的理解能力。很多時候答案都是原句換了一個表示的詞匯,但是意思仍與作者意圖相同。(2) 在重要、關(guān)鍵的詞語或短語下做上記號,如表示時間與年代的詞;表示條件、目的、方法、步驟、原因等詞;表示人名、地名或其他的專有名詞;數(shù)據(jù);某些副詞(如:always, seldom, absolutely, entirely, relatively, particularly, hardly, merely, virtually等等),這些詞匯或短語都有可能成為答案所在的標(biāo)志。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞frustrated可以定位到文章第一段。詞義猜測題主要考查以下幾個方面:(1) 考查考生熟悉詞匯的生僻含義,即很多詞匯考生了解其通常含義,但是在具體的情境和語境之中,詞匯會有一些不常用的陌生意義。詞義猜測題常見設(shè)問方式 The word “…” in the passage means ________ .The word “…” (Line …) c
