今天的题目：

Since the dawn of human ingenuity, people have devised ever more cunning tools to cope with work that is dangerous, boring, burdensome, or just plain nasty. That compulsion has resulted in robotics -- the science of conferring 

various human capabilities on machines. And if scientists have yet to create 

the mechanical version of science fiction, they have begun to come close.

1.Human ingenuity was initially demonstrated in ________.

[A] the use of machines to produce science fiction

[B] the wide use of machines in manufacturing industry

[C] the invention of tools for difficult and dangerous work

[D] the elite’s cunning tackling of dangerous and boring work

昨天题目的解析：

还是那句话，你真的在定位吗？

1. For the past several years, the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade has featured a column called “Ask Marilyn.” 

  1）supplement 增刊

  2）feature 刊登/以…为特点，特色

  3）column 专栏

参考译文：过去几年中，星期日报的增刊Parade刊登了一个叫做“问问玛莲琳”的专栏。

2. People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant, who at age 10 had tested at a mental level of someone about 23 years old; that gave her an IQ of 228 – the highest score ever recorded. 

 参考译文：人们被邀请去问问玛莲琳.沃斯.萨文特,这个姑娘只有10岁，按23岁的心理年纪水平对她进行了测试，她在智商测试中获得了228分的成绩，迄今为止记录的最高分。

3. IQ tests ask you to complete verbal and visual analogies, to envision paper after it has been folded and cut, and to deduce numerical sequences, among other similar tasks. 

  1）verbal 语言

  2）visual  视觉

  3）envision 想象

  4）deduce 推测

  5）numerical 数字

 参考译文：智商测试要求测试者（you）完成语言和视觉的类比，去想象一张纸在折叠和剪切之后的样子，去推测数字的顺序，以及其他一些类似的任务。

  这就是线索句，也就是能和选项发生关系的句子！

 4. So it is a bit confusing when vos Savant fields such queries from the average Joe (whose IQ is 100) as, What’s the difference between love and fondness? 

    1)field 面对

    2)the average Joe 普通人

    3) queries 问题

 参考译文：所以，（我们）会有点迷惑：当沃斯.萨文特面对一些来自智商只有100的普通人问的问题时，她会有什么样的反应。比如，爱和喜欢之前的区别是什么？

5. Or what is the nature of luck and coincidence?

参考译文：或者幸运和巧合的本质是什么?

6. It’s not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers.

 词汇突破：1）visualize 想象

            2）figure out 找出

            3）numerical patterns数字模型

            4）elude 使…远离；（一定注意：通常是物做主语）

               The question eludes the best students.

               (最好的学生都回答不出这个问题。)

            4）suit 使…能… =enable

主干识别：It’s not obvious how A suits one to answer questions.

其他成分：A= the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical 

patterns

          定语从句：that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers.

          questions have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers

参考译文：想象物体的能力以及找出数字模型的能力是如何让一个人能回答那些连最好的哲学家和诗人都回答不了的问题的呢?这一点我们还不清楚。

    提醒：It’s not obvious +（作者怀疑的内容）

26. Which of the following may be required in an intelligence test?

题干中是有定位信息的！问下面那个任务是智商测试（in an intelligence test）要求做的！

所以只能定位到第三句！！！

定位错误错自己

[A] Answering philosophical questions.（定位错误！）

[B] Folding or cutting paper into different shapes.（偷换！）

[C] Telling the differences between certain concepts.（定位错误！）

[D] Choosing words or graphs similar to the given ones.（完美替换！）

   Words= verbal 语言

Graphs= visual  视觉

Analogies= similar 类似，类比
