我們看到如下一道題: The author refers to a hungry lizard primarily in order to (A) demonstrate the similarity between the hunting methods of mammals and those of nonmammals (B) broaden the application of his argument by including an insectivore as an example (C) make a distinction between higher and lower levels of consciousness (D) provide an additional illustration of the brutality characteristic of predators (E) offer an objection to suggestions that all animals lack consciousness
找到答案的依據(jù)在于穩(wěn)重這樣一句話: The predator is searchingly aggressive, inner-directed, tuned by the nervous system and the adrenal hormones, but aware in a sense closer to human consciousness than, say, a hungry lizard’s instinctive snap at a passing beetle. 于是,正確答案為選項(xiàng) (C) make a distinction between higher and lower levels of consciousness 其實(shí),許多同學(xué)依然無法通過這句話與選項(xiàng)產(chǎn)生聯(lián)系,感覺找不到 a distinction,也找不到 higher and lower levels of consciousness。其實(shí),我們首先把這句話簡(jiǎn)化到核心: The predator is … aware in a sense closer to human consciousness than, say, a hungry lizard’s instinctive snap at a passing beetle,然后我們發(fā)現(xiàn)句子的核心是一個(gè)比較級(jí)。closer to … than …那既然是比較,那是不是 a distinction(差別/區(qū)分)就出來了? 接下來,我們看到比較的兩個(gè)主體:predator vs lizard。比較的方面是:與 human consciousness(人類意識(shí)作為高級(jí)意識(shí))有多 close (靠近)。那么,很顯然,哪個(gè)closer to(更靠近于) human consciousness(人類意識(shí)), 哪個(gè)就是higher levels of consciousness,對(duì)應(yīng)的就是 lower levels of consciousness。 |
