Pilotsflyingattheheightofmorethan2,100meterssawathickblackcolumnofash

andsteamshootingupintotheairfromthecrater.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】B

【答案解析】答案選B。該題說的是：飛行員飛行的高度超過2100米時，看見一

個黑色的火山灰和蒸汽從火山口急速上升到空氣中。但是,文章中airlinepilots

flyingnearthevolcanosoonafterwardsdescribedathickblackcolumnofashand

steamshootingmorethan2,100metersintothesky.說的是靠近火山的地方出現了

一個黑色的火山灰和蒸汽上升到空氣中，其高度超過2100米。因此該命題是錯

9

冰箱大小的體積和所需數分鐘的時間形成了對比。即：目前它大約像冰箱那么大，

而且要用幾分鐘掃描一個電路，但是他們正在努力使它縮小到臺式計算機那么大,

把掃描時間縮短到30秒。

A、loyalty

B、objective

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】解本題可用同類詞關系進行判斷。在“allegiance〃前后的兩個詞分別

是commitmentsacrifice,應能判斷出這三個詞相對于國家而言是同一類詞，

再利用排除法，不難選出正確答案A。
