參考答案【正確答案:C】
利用題干關鍵詞the parents和efforts on pot smoking定位在第三段,首句中concentration on和 題干中的focus on同義改寫。后面的句子就回答了這個問題:Marijuana is the illegal drug most used by kids,這個句子與選項A的內(nèi)容相同,但是要看清楚題目問的是這么做的意義,不是原因,因此形成了強烈的干擾。文章第三段moreover后面用社會學家的報道說明了大麻與可卡因和海洛因的關系,但是close-related和選項中的directly程度有差異。D在文章中沒有提及。第四段第一句話提出了父母把精力都集中在大麻香煙上的真正目的是通過戒掉吸大麻而使孩子們停止使用其他毒品。C是最佳答案。

- 4 【英譯漢】 In our culture, the sources of what we call a sense of “mastery”— feeling important and worthwhile — and the sources of what we call a sense of“pleasure” — finding life enjoyable — are not always identical. Women often are told “You can’t have it all.” Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is:“You chose a career, so you can’t expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life.” or “You have a wonderful husband and children—What’s all this about wanting a career?” Our study shows that, for women, well-being has two dimensions. One is mastery, which includes self-esteem, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depression. Mastery is closely related to the“doing” side of life, to work and activity. Pleasure is the other dimension, and it is composed of happiness, satisfaction and optimism. It is tied more closely to the “feeling” side of life. The two are independent of each other. A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure, and vice versa.
