［真題答案詳解］
41. [E]
空白前的一段說，省長們都在抱怨醫(yī)療成本飛漲，其中漲得最快的就是藥品的費(fèi)用�？瞻缀蟮囊欢蝿t問該怎么干。按照邏輯，上一段講了醫(yī)療成本飛速增長，接下來一定會(huì)舉例說明，一定會(huì)涉及數(shù)字、比例等內(nèi)容。在7個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，有[A]與[E]涉及及數(shù)字。[A]講到魁北克抵制參加全國性組織，而這事在以后的段落中才出現(xiàn)，所以肯定不是正確答案。[E]講到了藥品消費(fèi)的上升并分析了原因，是正確答案。
42. [C]
空白前的一段提到了要成立全國性的機(jī)構(gòu)，并講到了它的特點(diǎn)�？瞻缀蟮囊欢我�But 開頭，解釋national 的含義，所以空白處必定是解釋national 這一詞的。[C] What does “national” mean… 與下一段But “national” doesn’t have to mean… 是前后呼應(yīng)的選擇。
43. [G]
空白前的一段講到全國的機(jī)構(gòu)是代表3100萬人去談判，潛在的顧客的人數(shù)越多，得到底價(jià)的可能性越高。接下來理所當(dāng)然要講醫(yī)藥公司的反應(yīng)。所以看到Of course, the pharmaceutical companies will scream。 就是前段合乎情理的待續(xù)。這兒的scream 原作“尖叫”解，在這里作“高聲抱怨”解。Of course 起承上啟下的作用。
44. [F]
這道題[A][F]似乎都有可能。段與段之間有聯(lián)系是必然的，雖然有時(shí)也有一定是非常嚴(yán)密的。這種模棱兩可的選擇題有點(diǎn)“損”， 尤其這是第一次采用的新題型。不過深入分析，44題上兩段過渡到談怎樣建立全國性代理機(jī)構(gòu)以及一些�。ㄌ貏e是魁北克省和艾柏塔�。⿲�(duì)此特有的異議，談?wù)摰膶?duì)象轉(zhuǎn)到加拿大各省政府。按照文章的邏輯，建立全國性代理機(jī)構(gòu)是有好處的，而機(jī)構(gòu)的建立，關(guān)鍵取決于聯(lián)邦政府和各省政府，因此44題應(yīng)該談?wù)摳魇≌哪芰蛻B(tài)度，選項(xiàng)只有[F]項(xiàng)符合要求，所以44題就選[F]項(xiàng)。
45. [B]
前一段說到一些省長喜歡對(duì)羅曼諾的報(bào)告斷章取義，各取所需，眼睛盯著聯(lián)邦基金，作者建議省長們應(yīng)該看一看他關(guān)于藥品所說的話，[B]以Or開頭、連接前文的they should read。這都是屬于作者建議他們要做的事。其實(shí)，前段的Perhaps they should read… 與[B]項(xiàng)中的Or they could read… 中的兩個(gè)read 就提供了明顯的線索，要做對(duì)這指題是不難的。
新題型二：段落排序題
段落排序題的測(cè)試要點(diǎn)是：理解文章結(jié)構(gòu)，主要考查考生把握篇章結(jié)構(gòu)的能力，要求考生在閱讀各個(gè)段落時(shí)要把握它們的中心大意，并且將各段的段落大意整合，理清它們之間的邏輯順序，然后按照文章的內(nèi)容和結(jié)構(gòu)進(jìn)行排序。
解題步驟：
1.首先讀文章中指定的首尾段，了解文章的主要內(nèi)容,并以此為基礎(chǔ)判斷文章基本的邏輯關(guān)系。注意首段的最后幾句可能給出的線索。
2.通讀其余五段，留意各段中富有暗示性的詞語或句子 不要忽視在各段中出現(xiàn)頻率比較高的詞匯，它們經(jīng)常是解題的關(guān)鍵所在。
3．將每一段的大意做中文標(biāo)注。
4.初步排列五個(gè)段落 結(jié)合各段所給的暗示以及上下文的邏輯關(guān)系進(jìn)一步調(diào)整各段順序。給在各段的關(guān)鍵詞或重復(fù)出現(xiàn)的詞標(biāo)注下來，尤其注意可能出現(xiàn)相同詞語或有明顯邏輯詞語相連接的上下兩段話。
5.最后的確認(rèn) 把排列好順序的文章通讀一遍，從整體上對(duì)段落的順序進(jìn)行最后的確認(rèn)。注意檢查段與段之間的內(nèi)容與結(jié)構(gòu)是否符合邏輯的發(fā)展。

The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order for Questions 41-45,you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-E to fill in each numbered box. The first and the last paragraphs have been placed for you in Boxes. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(10 points)
［A］“I just don’t know how to motivate them to do a better job. We’re in a budget crunch and I have absolutely no financial rewards at my disposal. In fact, we’ll probably have to lay some people off in the near future. It’s hard for me to make the job interesting and challenging because it isn’t －it’s boring, routine paperwork, and there isn’t much you can do about it.
［B］“Finally, I can’t say to them that their promotions will hinge on the excellence of their paperwork. First of all, they know it’s not true. If their performance is adequate, most are more likely to get promoted just by staying on the force a certain number of years than for some specific outstanding act. Second, they were trained to do the job they do out in the streets, not to fill out forms. All through their career it is the arrests and interventions that get noticed.
［C］“I’ve got a real problem with my officers. They come on the force as young, inexperienced men, and we send them out on the street, either in cars or on a beat, They seem to like the contact they have with the public, the action involved in crime prevention, and the apprehension of criminals. They also like helping people out at fires, accidents, and other emergencies.
［D］“Some people have suggested a number of things like using conviction records as a performance criterion. However, we know that’s not fair－too many other things are involved. Bad paperwork increases the chance that you lose in court, but good paperwork doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll win. We tried setting up team competitions based on the excellence of the reports, but the guys caught on to that pretty quickly. No one was getting any type of reward for winning the competition, and they figured why should they labor when there was no payoff.”
［E］“The problem occurs when they get back to the station. They hate to do the paperwork, and because they dislike it, the job is frequently put off or done inadequately. This lack of attention hurts us later on when we get to court. We need clear, factual reports. They must be highly detailed and unambiguous. As soon as one part of a report is shown to be inadequate or incorrect, the rest of the report is suspect. Poor reporting probably causes us to lose more cases than any other factor.
［F］“So I just don’t know What to do. I’ve been groping in the dark in a number of years. And I hope that this seminar will shed some light on this problem of mine and help me out in my future work.”
［G］A large metropolitan city government was putting on a number of seminars for administrators, managers and/or executives of various departments throughout the city. At one of these sessions the topic to be discussed was motivation－how we can get public servants motivated to do a good job. The difficulty of a police captain became the central focus of the discussion.
