2 第一参考位置的主语在选项中有对应.

3 单词重复，句式，大写,数字,专有名称,问句,排比句归类

注意：①以上原则不可乱，先用第一条原则，如发现不行再用第二条原则，以此类推。②一般情况下，我们用第一参考位置来选择答案，第二参考位置只是用来印证答案的。

解题的时候，先做简单的，比如简单句；遇到从句的暂时跳过去，无法确定答案的就选最长的一项。我们的目标是：4分以上。

A Heroic Woman

The whole of the United States cheered its latest hero,Ashley Smith,with the Federal Bureau of lnvestigation saying it was planning to give a big reward to her for having a brave heart and wise mind.

（46）She was moving into her apartment in Atlanta,Georgia early on the morning of March 12,when a man followed her to her door and put a gun to her side.“I started walking to my door,and I felt really,really afraid,”she said in a TV interview last week.The man was Brian Nichols,33.He was suspected of killing three people at an Atlanta courthouse(法院)on March 11 and later of killing a federal agent.（47）

Nichols tied Smith up with tape,but released her after she repeatedly

begged him not to take her life.“I told him if he hurt me,my little girl wouldn’t have a mummy,”she said.In order to calm the man down,she read to him from“The Purpose-Driven Life”,a best-selling religious book.He asked her to

“I basically just talked to him and tried to gain his trust,”Smith said.

Eventually,he let her go.（50）A US$60,000 reward had been posted for Nichols’ capture.Authorities said they did not yet know if Smith would be eligible(有资格的)for that money.

Farmers’ Markets

Charlotte Hollins knows she faces a battle.The 23-year-old British farmer and her 21-year-old brother Ben are fighting to save the farm from developers that their father worked on since he was 14.（46）

“You don’t often get a day off.Supermarkets put a lot of pressure on farmers to keep prices down.With fewer people working on fams it can be isolating,”she said.“There is a high rate of suicide and farming will never make you rich!”

Oliver Robinson,25,grew up on a farm in Yorkshire.（47）“I’m sure dad hoped I’d stay,”he said.“I guess it’s a nice,straightforward life,but it doesn’t appeal.For young,ambitious people,farm life would be a hard world.”For

Robinson,farming doesn’t offer much“in terms of money or lifestyle.”Hollins agrees that economics stops people from pursuing farming rewards:“providing for a vital human need,while working outdoors with nature.”

Farming is a big political issue in the UK.（48）The 2001 foot and mouth crisis closed thousands of farms,stopped meat exports,and raised public consciousness of troubles in UK farming.

Jamie Oliver’s 2005 campaign to get children to eat healthily also highlighted the issue.This national concern spells(带来)hope for farmers competing with powerful supermarkets.（49）

“I started going to Farmers’ Markets in direct defiance(蔑视)of the big supermarkets.

（50）It’s terrible,”said Londoner Michael Samson.

Every Dog Has His Say

Kimiko Fukuda always wondered what her dog was trying to

say．Whenever she put on makeup，it would pull at her sleeve___(46) When the dog barks，she glances at a small electronic gadget(装置)．The following“human”translation appears on its screen：“Please take me with you” “I realized that’s how he was feeling．”says Fukuda

The gadget is called Bowlingual，and it translates dog barks into feelings．People laughed when the Japanese toymaker Takara Company made the world’s first dog-human translation machine in 2002．But 300，000 Japanese dog owners bought it．____(47)

“Nobody else had thought about it，”said Masahiko Kajita，who works for

Takara．“We spend so much time training dogs to understand our orders；what would it be like if we could understand dogs?”

Bowlingual has two pars____(48) The translation is done in the gadget using a database containing every kind of bark．

Based on animal behaviour research，these noises are divided into six categories：happiness，sadness，frustration，anger，declaration and desire．___(49)In this way, the database scientifically matches a bark to an emotion，which is then translated into one of 200 phrases．

When a visitor went to Fukuda’s house recently，the dog barked a loud “bow wow”．___(50) It was followed by“I’m stronger than you”as the dog growled and sniffed(嗅) at the visitor
