以...because提问:这种类型的提问方式我们可以在文章中直接找到答案,文中出现的部分也就是提问中的原因,不过文中的词句可能在选择项中被改写或改变句型结构。请看以下例题: 2001年第2篇全真考研题 A great deal of attention is being paid today to the socalled digital divide—the division of the worldsintosthe info (information) rich and the info poor.Andthat divide does exist today.My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago.What was less visible then,however,were the new,positive forces that work against the digital divide.There are reasons to be optimistic.There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow.As the Internet becomes more and more commercialized,it is in the interest of business touniversalize access-after all,the more people online,the more potential customersthere are.More and more governments,afraid their countries will be left behind,want to spread Internet access.Within the next decade or two,one to two billion people on the planet will be netted together.As a result,I now believe the digital divide will narrow rather than widen in the years ahead.And that is very goodnews because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for combating world poverty that we've ever had. Of course,the use of the Internet isn't the only way todefeat poverty.And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has enormous potential. To take advantage of this tool,some impoverished countries will have to getover their outdated anticolonial prejudices with respect to foreign investment.Countries that still think foreign investment is an invasion of their sovereignty might well study the history of infrastructure (the basic structural foundations of a society) in the United States.When the United States built its industrial infrastructure,it didn't have the capital to do so.And that is why Americas Second Wave infrastructure-including roads,harbors,highways,ports and so on-were built with foreign investment.The English,the Germans,the Dutch and the French were investing in Britain's former colony.They financed them.Immigrant Americans built them.Guess who owns them now? The Americans.I believe the same thing would be true in places like Brazil or anywhere else for that matter.The more foreign capital you have been helping you build your Third Wave infrastructure,whichtoday is an electronic infrastructure,the better off you're going to be.That doesn't mean lying down and becoming fooled,or letting foreign corporations run uncontrolled.But it does mean recognizing how important they can be in building the energy and telecom infrastructures needed to take full advantage of the Internet. 55Digital divide is something. A.getting worse because of the Internet B.the rich countries are responsible for C.the world must guard against D.considered positive today 56Governments attach importance tothe Internet because it. A.offers economic potentials B.can bring foreign funds C.can soon wipe out world poverty D.connects people all over the world 57The writer mentioned the case of the United States to justify the policy of. A.providing financial support overseas B.preventing foreign capital's control C.building industrial infrastructure D.accepting foreign investment 58It seems that now a country's economy depends much on. A.how welldeveloped it is electronically B.whether it is prejudiced against immigrants C.whether it adopts America's industrial pattern D.how much control it has over foreign corporations 55C段落内容综合推断题。第1段中作者写道:“现在人们十分注意所谓数字化划分问题”,接着又写道:“20年前我妻子和我就谈及这种隐约的危险,然而,当时看起来还不太清楚的事是抵制数字化划分的新的积极的因素。我们有理由感到乐观。”综合上述内容,作者认为,数字化划分是人们关注的问题,而且是一种“危险”,并指出有许多“新的积极的因素”来“抵制数字化划分”,而且对此“感到乐观”。可见,数字化划分是“世界必须防范”的事。而A答案“由于英特网而变得日益严重”可参照文章第二段倒数第二、三句“在未来的20年内,世界上将有一二十亿人入英特网。因此,我认为将来信息差异只能缩小,不会扩大”可知A答案与内容相反,B答案文章未提及,D则与内容相反。 56A本题属以...because这种句型提问。 该题问政府重视英特网的原因是什么。本文第三段“当然,使用国际互联网不是战胜贫穷的惟一方法,而且国际互联网也不是我们有的惟一工具;但是它有巨大的潜力”这与A答案“具有经济潜力”相符合,故应选A。B答案与文章内容不符,C答案“不久就能消除世界贫困”,这个“不久”一词与内容不符,而D答案“能把全世界所有人连接在一起”也与内容不符。 57D该题问作者提到美国发展情况来证明下列哪项政策是正确的。我们可参照文章第四段第三至第五句可以得知D答案“接受外国投资”为正确答案。A答案“向海外提供资金援助”文章中并未提及,B答案“防止外国资本的控制”与内容不符,而C“建设工业基础设施”文章提到该点,但不是作者提及美国的目的,故答案D正确。 58A该题问现在一个国家的经济似乎依赖什么。我们可以参照文章最后一段倒数第三句“当今是第三次浪潮,即电子基础设施的建设。发展电子设施所拥有的资本越多,将来就越富有”因此A答案“电子方面是否发达”正确,B和C答案文章并未提及,D答案“该国对外国公司控制的力度”与文章内容不符,故答案A正确。 译文 现如今人们正在关注着所谓的信息差异,即世界上信息资源丰富的地区与信息资源贫乏地区之间的差异。今天,这种差异的确存在。我和妻子20年前就当时隐约出现的这种危险也做过讲演。然而,可以防止这种信息差出现的一些新的积极因素在当时并不如现在这样明显。 现在,我们有理由不必为此悲观。 从技术方面看,这种信息差异有希望缩小。因为随着英特网日益商业化、普及,其使用符合商家的利益。毕竟,上网的人数越多,未来的顾客就越多。目前,由于害怕自己的国家会落后,越来越多的政府将扩大英特网的使用范围。在未来的20年内,世界上将有一二十亿人入英特网。因此,我认为将来信息差异只能缩小,不会再扩大。这消息确实不错,因为,英特网完全可以成为战胜目前我们所面临的世界贫困的有力工具。 当然,使用英特网并不是战胜贫困的惟一方法,而且英特网也不是我们拥有的惟一工具,但是,其潜力巨大。 为了利用英特网这一工具,一些贫困国家必须抛弃对外国投资所持有的那种已过时的反殖民偏见。仍然认为外国投资是对本国主权的一种入侵的那些国家最好研究一下美国建设基础设施的历史。美国当初建设自己的工业基础设施时没有足够的资本。这就是美国的第二浪潮,即基础设施的建设,包括公路、港口、交通干线、码头等都用外国投资的原因。英国、德国、荷兰及法国当时都为这一英国前殖民地投了资金。这些国家的投资,美国移民的建设,猜猜看,现在谁拥有这些设施呢?是美国人。我相信在巴西及别的地方,这类情况是相同的。当今是第三次浪潮,即电子基础设施的建设。发展电子设施所拥有的资本越多,将来就越富有。但这并不意味着屈从和任人榨取,也不意味着外国公司可以随意发展。然而这确实表明资本在建设能源及电信基础设施中是至关重要的,而这些基础设施对于充分利用英特网也是必不可少的。
