   Based on the information in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4, what can be inferred 1 about the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, and Texas mentioned at the end of paragraph 1?


  A.They rely largely 2 on coal-fired power plants.
  B.They contain remote areas where the winds rarely die down.
  C.Over 1 percent of the electricity in these states is produced by wind farms.
  D.Wind farms in these states are being expanded to meet the power needs of the United States.
  这个题目的题干涉及到三个段落,而事实上考生根本不需要去看第一段的内容,因为答案依据的是第三、四段的信息,但是这两个段落如果都看的话内容也不少,从应试的角度来说太费时间。正确的做法应该是从选项中挖掘一下方向。A项里大家一般都会选择有连字符的coal-fired作为关键词去定位,B项没有比较显眼的词就只能选名词短语remote areas,C项选1 percent, D项选the United States。选完关键词我们不难发现除了B项不大好定位以外,其他三个选项的关键词都很醒目。经过定位,A项应该去比对第3段的第一句话,意思明显矛盾;B项不好找,可以暂且跳过;C项和D项的关键词在这两段都找不到,这就属于阅读中推理题的错误答案设计方法之一——无中生有。所以虽然我们没有去验证B项的说法是否正确,但经过排除也只能选B了。这样的做题方法就会省时省力,且答案也是正确的。在考试中,这种情况往往会影响考生的心情,进而影响水平的发挥,但是只要我们了解了ETS出题的套路就能把它们轻松搞定。
  考场如战场,只有知己知彼方能百战百胜。了解了ETS在设计题目时所使用的“绊脚绳”,我们就可以很好地做到事半功倍。
