八、包含其他选项内容的选项往往不是答案
有的选项明显包含其他选项的含义,那么该选项往往不是答案。
【例9】(托福)
【预览选项】
[A] She was impressed by it.
[B] It was a waste of money.
[C] She was amazed it had opened so soon.
[D] She didn’t like it as much as the other wings.【听前预测】
由选项中的impressed,a waste of money, amazed, like 等可推知本题是针对对某事物的看法设题的。选项 [A]说“it”给她留下了深刻印象,选项[C]说她对“it”这么快就开张(或开放)感到吃惊,其含义包含[A]的含义在内,故[C]很可能不是答案。
【听音验证】
M: Hey, how was your trip?
W: Wonderful. I spent most of my time at the art museum. I especially liked the new wing. I was amazed to hear the guide explain all the problems they had building it.
【答案解析】
34.What did the woman think of the new wing of the museum?
【解析】 选[A]。细节题。由对话中出现的 amazed, unusual, impressive等可知女士对美术馆新侧厅的修建费用以及修建过程中的种种问题大感吃惊,并且对里面的设计印象非常深刻,故答案为[A]。
