错题一
Coconuts found on the west coast of America were a different type from those found on the east coast.
答案:NG
定位词:coconuts found on the west coast of America
第六段第四至八句: But the origin of coconuts discovered along … but no evidence that coconuts are indigenous.
本题说到美洲西岸的椰子,而这也是第六段第四句说到的the subject of centuries of discussion,并在之后提出了两种不同的猜想,但是通读之后的几句话,对于美洲西岸的椰子与东岸的椰子是否属于不同品种,并没有提及。因此本题答案为NOT GIVEN。
错题二
All the coconuts found in Asia are cultivated varieties.
答案:T
第六段第七句: In Asia, there is a large degree of coconut diversity and evidence of millennia of human use - but there are no relatives growing in the wild.
本题问到the coconuts found in Asia,关于其描述出现在文中第六段第七句,文中提到a large degree of coconut diversity and evidence of millennia of human use,同时no relatives growing in the wild,也就是说这里的椰子没有野生的亲缘品种,题目中的cultivated varieties与本句信息一致。因此本题答案为TRUE。

错题一
a difference between the Harappan Civilisation and another culture of the same period
那段话包含以上信息
答案: A
参考译文: 哈拉帕文明和另一个同时期文化的差异
定位词: difference, another culture of the same period
对应A段第三句:But their lack of self-imagery - at a time when the Egyptians were carving and painting representations of themselves all over their temples - is only part of the mystery.
A段对哈拉帕文明进行了基本的介绍,指出哈拉帕文明曾是发展兴旺的社会,但是关于他们自身的描述都没有留下,之后在本段第三句提到at a time when the Egyptians were carving and painting representations of themselves all over their temples,这里埃及人在庙宇中雕刻和绘制自身形象是哈拉帕文明没有做过的,因此与题目中a difference一致,而题目中提到的 another culture即Egyptians。 因此本题答案为A。
megacities特大城市
错题二
Petrie and Singh’s team are using archaeological records to look at ____ from five millennia ago, in order to know whether people had adapted their agricultural practices to changing climatic conditions.
答案: grains
Petrie and Singh’s team, archaeological records
对应G段第一、二句:Petrie and Singh’s team is now examining … how people led their lives in the region five millennia ago. They are analysing grains cultivated at the time, and trying to work out…
题目中的Petrie and Singh’s team以及archaeological records都出现在原文G段第一句。题目中的to look at对应原文G段第二句They are analysing,因此本句的宾语grains与题目对应。本题答案为grains。
错题三
They are also examining objects including ____ , so as to find out about links between inhabitants of different parts of the region and whether these changed over time.
答案: pottery
定位词:They are also examining, links between
对应G段第三句:They are also looking at whether the types of pottery used, and …, were distinctive to specific regions or were more similar across larger areas.
题目中They are also examining与原文中They are also looking at是同义替换关系,同时也都是带有also的并列结构,因此本题可以定位在G段第三句。本段中提到将pottery作为研究对象,因此题目中objects including____可以直接填写potter。本题答案为pottery。
错题四
Rough calculations indicate the approximate length of a period of water shortage.
谁提到了这个观点
答案: David Hodell
译文:粗略计算可以预估水资源短缺的大概时间长度。
定位词:the approximate length of a period of water shortage
关于水资源短缺的信息出现在文章E段,其中说到当时水的来源主要是夏季季风,而由于湖泊的蒸发量超过了降雨量,导致发生干旱,而Hodell还说到We estimate that the weakening of the Indian summer monsoon climate lasted about 200 years before recovering to the previous conditions,也就是夏季季风的减弱持续了大约200年,而由于夏季季风与降雨量之间的关系,所以该内容与题目表述是一致的。本题答案为D。
错误原因:
‘As today, the major source of water into the lake is likely to have been the summer monsoon,’ says Dixit
. ‘But we have observed that there was an abrupt change about 4,100 years ago, when the amount of evaporation from the lake exceeded the rainfall一 indicative of a drought.’ Hodell adds
: ‘We estimate that the weakening of the Indian summer monsoon climate lasted about 200 years before recovering to the previous conditions, which we still see today.’
indicative of a drought这句话是David Hodell说的,不是Dixit说的。
Hodell adds是David Hodell补充道,的意思。
