为什么单词都懂还是错？
例1
Gene Cohen, acting director of the same institute, suggests that people in their old age should engage in mental and physical activities individually as well as in groups. Cohen says that we are frequently advised to keep physically active as we age, but older people need to keep mentally active as well. Those who do are more likely to maintain their intellectual abilities and to be generally happier and better adjusted. “The point is, you need to do both,” Cohen says. “Intellectual activity influences brain-cell health and size.”
Older people are generally advised to ________.
A. keep fit by going in for physical activities
B. keep mentally active by challenging their brains
C. maintain mental alertness through specific training
D. maintain a balance between individual and group activities
出题人对选项进行了修饰，通过填词、减词或换词的手法，使选项的意思发生变化，无法与原文构成真正的同义替换关系
例2
We can see how the product life cycle works by looking at the introduction of instant coffee. When it was introduced, most people did not like it as well as “regular” coffee, and it took several years to gain general acceptance (introduction stage). At one point, though, instant coffee grew rapidly in popularity and many brands were introduced (stage of rapid growth). After a while people became attached to one brand and sales leveled off (stage of maturity). Sales went into a slight decline（衰退） when freeze-dried coffees were introduced (stage of decline).
According to the passage, when people grow fond of one particular brand of a product, its sales will ______.
A) decrease gradually
B) become unstable
C) improve enormously
D) remain at the same level
尽管原文句子很长，但不需要全部理解，因为其中的大部分信息并不是出题点。
解决之道就是从题干信息出发，在原文的长句中进行局部定位，找到与长句的某部分构成同义替换关系的选项即可。
例3
Tracking whales is but one example of an exciting new world just opening to civilian scientists after the cold war as the Navy starts to share and partly uncover its global network of underwater listening system built over the decades to track the ships of potential enemies.
32. The underwater listening system was originally designed ____ . 　　
A) to trace and locate enemy vessels 　　
B) to monitor deep-sea volcanic eruptions 　　
C) to study the movement of ocean currents 　　
D) to replace the global radio communications network
35. Which of the following is true about the U.S. Navy underwater listening network ? 　　
A) It is now partly accessible to civilian scientists. 　　
B) It has been replaced by a more advanced system. 　　
C) It became useless to the military after the cold war. 　　
D) It is indispensable(不可缺少的) in protecting endangered species. 　
读懂长难句，最简单的做法就是把句子分割成一组组意群。
而分割的标志主要是四类词：介词、从句的先行词、非谓语动词和连词。
Tracking whales is but one example / of an exciting new world / just opening to civilian scientists / after the cold war / as the Navy starts to share / and partly uncover its global network of / underwater listening system / built over the decades / to track the ships of potential enemies.
冷战结束后，海军对几十年来为追踪潜在敌舰而建立的全球海底监听系统做了部分解密，并开始同他人分享。追踪蓝鲸只不过是令人激动的新世界向民用科学家开放的一个例子。
例4

推断题的解法
Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England . You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.
14. It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because ____.
A) house agents along the coast do not support the idea 
B) it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areas 
C) the government is too slow in taking action 
D) they will be easily knocked down by waves and currents 
15 According to the author, when buying a house along the south coast of England , people should ____. 
A) take the quality of the house into consideration 
B) guard against being cheated by the house agent 
C) examine the house carefully before making a decision
D) be aware of the potential danger involved

　　26. A)They care a lot about children.
　　B)They need looking after in their old age.
　　C)They want to enrich their life experience.
　　D)They want children to keep them company.
　　27.A)They are usually adopted from distant places.
　　B)Their birth information is usually kept secret.

　　D)Adoption has much to do with love.

原文：
　　When couples get married, they usually plan to have children, Sometimes, however, a couple can not have a child of their own. In this case, they may decide to adopt a child. In fact, adoption is very common today. There are about 60,000 adoptions each year in the United States alone. Some people prefer to adopt infants. Others adopt older children. Some couples adopt children from their own families, they all adopt children for the same reason. They care about children（第26题） and want to give their adopted child a happy life.
　　Most adopted children know that they are adopted. Psychologists and childcare experts generally think this is a good idea. However, many adopted children or adoptees have very little information about their biological parents. As a matter of fact, it is often very difficult for adoptees to find out about their birth parents because the birth records of most adoptees are usually sealed. The information is secret, （第27题）so no one can see it.
　　Naturally, adopted children have different feelings about their birth parents. Many adoptees want to search for them, but others do not. The decision to search for birth parents is a difficult one to make.
　　Most adoptees have mixed feelings about finding their biological parents. （第28题）Even though adoptees do not know about their natural parents, they do know that their adoptive parents want them, love them and will care for them.
　　Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.
　　26.According to the speaker，why do some couples adopt children?
　　27.Why is it difficult for adoptees to find out about their birth parents?
　　28.Why do many adoptees find it hard to make the decision to search for their birth parents?
29.What can we infer from the passage?

答案：ABCD

解密：2011年英语四六级考前30天常见18大困惑
　　距离考试的时间越来近了，考生们都进入了考前的全面备考阶段。部分考生还存在不同的心理压力，特别是考了几次没过的同学。现将考生在论坛里提问最多的问题归集整理如下，希望对大家的复习有所帮助。同时建议广大考生能放松心态，你遇到的问题其他同学也会遇到，建议大家放松心情，在抓紧复习的同时，一定要调整好心态。
　　一、词汇还是记不住，怎么办?
　　答：首先，如果到现在还没办法消化老师的词汇记忆法或者觉得没有效果的同学，应该果断地选择按照自己的方法来，方法没有好不好，只有是不适合自己，即使是死记硬背，就抓紧时间背单词，反复记忆。
　　其次，每天的时间和精力花费在单词上的不宜过多，一个小时足矣。
　　第三，这个时间段应该开始做真题练习，真题阅读是记忆单词非常好的材料。毕竟四六级对单词量的考察主要就是集中在阅读上。所以直接攻核心的东西，将阅读真题作为巩固单词记忆的主要工具，第一遍阅读时遇到不会记不起的单词都标注出来，查出意思记熟背牢。第二轮阅读真题时回忆单词，记不住的查看上轮的标注。这样重复回忆和记忆，真题中常出现的高频词汇也就掌握了。注意：标注时最好不要在原文上，这样有助于回忆的效果。
　　二、考前30天，如何选择练习题?
　　答：第一、时间充足，有余力的同学可以做些模拟题，预测题，然后进行真题的训练，真题为主，注意好时间的分配。
　　第二、时间很紧的同学就集中攻克真题，选择至少近六年的真题，好好安排每天练习的数量和时间，争取把真题都吃透练烂。当然，新东方课堂上有具体题型的魔鬼训练营，里面各有5000次课时的练习题，题量很大，有时间的同学也可以做做，多练习肯定帮助很大。
　　第三、考前可以用模拟题来找感觉，对错不重要，注意分配时间，速度和过程中的自我调节。
　　三、考前30天，如何高效利用真题进行复习?
　　答：第一、可以将真题分类，比如有10套真题：
　　A)可以拿出其中的6份来，拆开，进行各部分的练习用，比如听完阅读课程后，就做真题阅读部分;真题听力部分拿来做每天的听力练习材料。作文部分进行写作练习，对答案，背模板，背范文等。
　　B)另外四份留着完整的做，严格按照考试时间来完成。错误的地方要弄明白，查漏补缺。
　　第二、建议同学们完整做完一套真题后，就是用彩色笔在原文中标记出答案出处，然后，需要做的工作是：
