55、Whatisthebesttitleforthepassage?

A、ProfessorWalker'sResearch.

B、HowtoMakeBigMoney.

C>DifferencesBetweenScienceandArtsDegrees.

D、StudyingArtsHasNegativeFinancialOutcome.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點解析：本文為Walker教授的研究成果，旨在說明不同的專業(yè)提供不同的經(jīng)

濟(jì)前景，并非要傳授其發(fā)財心得或者比較文理科的異同。文章首句即為本題解題關(guān)

鍵，尾句再次從反面重申主題，故選項D正確。

56、Universitieschargestudentsaratherhightuitionmainlybecause.

A、theyprovidethestudentswithveryprosperoussubjectstolearn

B、theyassumethattheirgraduatescanearnmuchmorethantheyhadpaid

C、theydon'tgetfinancialsupportfromthegovemment

D、theyneedmuchrevenuetosupporttheeducationalexpenses

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點解析：本文只有這一句與收取學(xué)費(fèi)有關(guān)，后一個分句即前一個分句的理由，

抓住其中隱含的因果關(guān)系就不難找到正確答案。

57、Theword"lucrative"inLine1,Para,mostprobablymeans.

A、sensible

B、creative

Csprofitable

D、reliable

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點解析：通過下文數(shù)據(jù)earnings25%higher,可以推測lucrative大意應(yīng)為“給人

最帶來豐厚收入的“，故選C。

58、Law,medicalandbusinessgraduatescouldearn2%morethan.

A^educationgraduates

B、artsgraduates

C>iftheyhadn'tstudiedattheuniversity

D^thenationalaverageincome

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：C

知識點露這一段中出現(xiàn)了兒個比較數(shù)字，考題要求找到這些數(shù)字的參照點。從

該段第2句中的thelist和第3句即可以確定這一段的數(shù)字都是比較大學(xué)畢業(yè)與18

歲畢業(yè)（即沒讀大學(xué)）收入不同所得的結(jié)果。因此選項C正確。

59、Wecansafelyconcludethattheauthor.

A、regardsartsdegreesasmeaningless

B、findsthisresultdisappointingandunfair

C>wantsthestudentstothinktwicebeforetheydecidewhattolearnincollege

D、holdsthatartsdegreesarestillrewardingdespiteitsscarcefinancialreturns

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：D

知識點解析：結(jié)論往往出現(xiàn)在文章結(jié)尾，要想答對此題，一定要仔細(xì)體會本文末

句。
