GWD-9-Q5:
According to the passage, the inhabitants of the Andean highlands resolved the problem of unequal resource distribution primarily in which of the following ways?

簡譯 : 如何解決資源分配不均的問題 ?

By the sixteenth century, the Incas
of South America ruled an empire that
extended along the Pacific coast and
Line Andean highlands from what is now
(5) Ecuador to central Chile. While most
of the Incas were self-sufficient
agriculturists,
the inhabitants of the
highland basins above 9,000 feet were
constrained by the kinds of crops they
(10) could cultivate
. (點出問題)Whereas 95 percent
of the principal Andean food crops can
be cultivated below 3,000 feet, only
20 percent reproduce readily above
9,000 feet.
(進一步陳述問題)Given this unequal
(15) resource distribution,
highland Incas
needed access to the products of
lower, warmer climatic zones in order
to enlarge the variety and quantity of
their foodstuffs.
(解決問題的方法)In most of the prein-
(20) dustrial world, the problem of different
(換字 ! = unequal)resource distribution was resolved by
long-distance trade networks over
which the end consumer exercised
little control.
Although the peoples
(25) of the Andean highlands participated
in such networks, they relied primarily
on the maintenance of autonomous
production forces in as many ecological
zones as possible.


答案應該更正為 C

看到自己小時後的發言...真的瞞想一頭撞死 !

希望對fiona 有幫助嚕..... i68


Dear 魚

我第一次做的時候
也很想選C
可是
increaing 這個字讓我猶豫了
因為文章只提到 participate
並沒有直接提到 質或量的增加
(或許可以推論說 參與 就會 相對地增加依賴
不過我覺得在細節題上會有疑問)
所以在看到答案E之後
覺得E更好
Although 帶出的轉折
重點在後面句子
也就是 they replied PRIMARILY on .... (謎之音: 題目也用了 primarily 這個字唷)
直接就告訴你他們是怎麼做的

Although the peoples
(25) of the Andean highlands participated
in such networks, they relied primarily
on the maintenance of autonomous
production forces in as many ecological
zones as possible.

個人比較同意維尼兄之看法,因為魚大大所依循的句子(Line 19)只說明了preindustrial world普遍之solution而未點出how dothe inhabitants of the Andean highlands resolve the problem.

有沒有人注意到(E)選項中的"beyond"their parent communities?...我的理解是因為文中是說"Different crop zones or pasturelands are located within a few days walk of(而不是from) the parent community.",因而其實選項(E)是一個陷阱答案呢?個人淺見請多包涵...

支持E,
他們積極地去建立自己的生產力,L30後全部開始說明如何去做的策略方法,
而選項A,Following....只是消極地自給自足,未加以採行改善的方式..

文中並沒有提到。
而(A)剛好是27行句子的同意代換

有關GWD 9-Q5:

看一下self-sufficient argriculturists出現在 Line 6~7的地方

主詞是most of the Incas,由While領導的子句與主要子句關係是coontrast,

comma後面的主詞是inhabitants of the highland,指的是Incas住在highland的居民因為無法自給自足,之後才利用了vertical economy的策略。

所以Q5問的是inhabitants of the Adean highlands如何resolve problem of unequal resource distribution...

當然要找有關vertical economy相關的資訊,

(A) 不選,原因如上述

(C) CD給C實在太奇怪,Q4才問過他們依賴long-distance trade僅限於某一程度,Line24 Although 帶領的子句,重點在主要子句,Line 26告訴我們,they relied primary on the maintainace of autonomous production forces.... (所以C不選)

(E) 前面提過,要找有關vertical economy相關的資訊,貫穿整個第二段 Line 34~73 都在談 vertical economy,包含他的兩個變革,主要是在講他們利用各種方法:如就近建立相鄰生態區的供應體系,或是建立衛星社區,目的就是求得原本地區無法生產或不適合生產民生必需品有更高的生產力,所以 I defend answer (E).

這題的確是E
看以下
While most
of the Incas were self-sufficient
agriculturists, the inhabitants of the
highland basins above 9,000 feet were
constrained by the kinds of crops they
(10) could cultivate.

再看A. Following self-sufficient agricultural practices
不能忽略了Following這個重點字的意義
此篇文章作者是要強調inhabitants of高地所面臨的困境與獨立解決之道
A的答案顯然意思是住在高地的那些人,遵循自給自足的practices(而這是Most of the Incas有的practices,應該是一些種植的實際方法,才用follow一字)
在這邊顯然self-sufficient 和automous是不同的
automous在強調該village不同於原有local-netwok的end-consumer exercise little control,有很大的主導權

至於self-efficient,這篇文章不就說了這群人的居住環境"不夠self-efficient",才需要"direct access" to ecological zones beyone their parent communities, which is answer E

一些淺見
題目問the inhabitants of the Andean highlands 如何解決問題
重點應在25行這句
Although the peoples of the Andean highlands participated in such networks, they relied primarily on the maintenance of autonomous production forces in as many ecological zones as possible.
並呼應第五行
While most of the Incas were self-sufficient agriculturists
雖然他們有參加但沒有以such networks為重,也沒有如C選項increase their reliance on long-distance trade networks
似乎A比較適當

文章davidlee0222 » 2006-02-25 19:38

不好意思
布穀一年前問了小弟都一直沒看到
雖說這題有直接解答就緊接在19-24行主軸句後的第24行
但AT是沒有固定出題模式的
沒有辦法在某段或某行就直接回答問題
可能第一行的問題在文章最末句才回答
因此小弟還是把全文重看了一次

提問主要依賴何種方式
答案直接就在第24行
Although the peoples
(25) of the Andean highlands participated
in such networks, they relied primarily
on the maintenance of autonomous
production forces in as many ecological
zones as possible.
主要靠維持各自治生產力在越多E區越好
...
看起來不懂在講啥
AT鮮少有關鍵字解題奏效的
不過這題可以這樣做
關鍵字是autonomous
還有一個高段轉折字
就是維尼大提到的although
光從這個字就可以推斷只有A對
CE都是錯的
A是怎麼個對法咧
這句話的意思是
即使他們有時會用遠距傳遞
他們主要還是靠自己
基本上既然是靠自己
就跟後面有多少E區沒有關係了
儘可能多區也沒用
因為就算有遠距傳遞
主要還是靠自己
A. Following self-sufficient agricultural practices
完全正確

C. Increasing their reliance on long-distance trade networks
完全相反

E. Establishing production forces in ecological zones beyond their parent communities
注意是講beyond parent communities
當場就錯了
是靠自己
即使有很多很多區各自重不同作物
且偶有遠距傳遞
但是沒用
因為主要是靠自己

While most
of the Incas were self-sufficient
agriculturists, the inhabitants of the
highland basins above 9,000 feet were
constrained by the kinds of crops they
(10) could cultivate.
雖然大部分的印加人都可自給自足
但是住在高地的印加人不行。
所以A錯。


Although the peoples
(25) of the Andean highlands participated
in such networks, they relied primarily
on the maintenance of autonomous
production forces in as many ecological
zones as possible.
高地印加人主要不是採用long-distance trade networks
那他們主要是靠什麼呢?
在很多的生態區裡維持自主耕種農作物的能力


The commodities produced in these
zones were extracted, processed,
and transported entirely by members
of a single group.
單一的團體把這些生態區裡的作物採出、加工並運送(回高山印加人的社區裡)

This strategy of direct access
(35) to a maximum number of ecological
zones by a single group is called
vertical economy.
由一組人馬,出沒於這麼多的(高度較低)生態區
這就叫vertical economy.


This
strategy has two principal variations.
(45) The first is “compressed verticality,”
in which a single village resides in
a location that permits easy access
to closely located ecological zones.
Different crop zones or pasturelands
(50) are located within a few days walk of
the parent community. Community
members may reside temporarily
in one of the lower zones to manage
the extraction of products unavailable
(55) in the homeland.
Vertical economy的其中一種是 compressed verticality.
在高度較低且距高地僅幾天路程的生態區裡
這組人馬會在每個生態區各別建立小村落
他們會輪流在這些小村落裡短暫居住,
以便種植或採收這些高地沒有的食物
然後把這些食物運回高地。


Q5:
According to the passage, the inhabitants of the Andean highlands resolved the problem of unequal resource distribution primarily in which of the following ways?
印加高地人如何解決食物不足的問題?

E. Establishing production forces in ecological zones beyond their parent communities
在他們社區外的眾多生態區中,建立生產食物的能力。
答案就是E了。

我贊成E (雖然說 我第一次寫A 第二次寫C..)
但仔細看的話其實很簡單,文章第五行的while.....they could cultivate 很清楚知道,自給自足的農業行為其實是不夠吃的同時也不能解決資源分配不足的問題(A錯),但是他們又不要像其他地方實行遠距離貿易網絡(文中提到這會造成終端消費者,也就是山上的人,無法有太大的控制權),所以他們使用的是垂直經濟(C錯)。那麼E選項其實就是垂直經濟的精神啦。

chunjuwu \$m[1]:
這題我覺得是E

從二句出處判斷是A 或 E

Line 5: While most of the Incas were self-sufficient
agriculturists, the inhabitants of the highland basins...

Line 26:Although the peoples of the Andean highlands participated
in such networks, they relied primarily on the maintenance of autonomous
production forces in as many ecological zones as possible

可是注意題目問的是住在高地的人,而不是大部分的人:
the inhabitants of the Andean highlands resolved the problem of unequal resource distribution primarily in which of the following ways

請指教


支持E,C大的理由簡單明瞭,切重要點!
所謂理論,就是知道為什麼,但卻什麼都行不通;
所謂實務,就是不知道為什麼,但是什麼都行得通;
至於理論與實務合而為一:就是什麼都行不通,而且不知道為什麼!!

文章A級垂耳兔 » 2007-01-11 00:18

AT的文章每個句子描述一個狀況一定都有他的功能...因為記的莫老師說過英文作文的表達方式是由上而下一直線的...所以候一句一定由前一句引導...

By the sixteenth century, the Incas
of South America ruled an empire that
extended along the Pacific coast and
Line Andean highlands from what is now
(5) Ecuador to central Chile.(有人住山上有人住海邊)
While most of the Incas were self-sufficient
agriculturists(這就是住海邊的人..While表對比沒錯..不然前一句沒有寫出來的意義), the inhabitants of the
highland basins above 9,000 feet were
constrained by the kinds of crops they
(10) could cultivate.(這就是講住山上的人..也是文章想藉由海邊的人自給自足的方式來引出高山農業經濟的特殊性)

到此....答案A就不用考慮了..文章看起來高山農業雖然看起來像自給自足...但是根本沒用到self-sufficient agriculture這個字..不可過度推論...過度推論也是AT文章設計錯誤選項(稿到現在覺得GWD的閱讀真的很像大型的CR).....而且既然對比已經說了海邊人是self-sufficient agriculturists.高山人的農業經濟當然和他們是不一樣的...

答案C錯誤也是同樣的道理...文章會把long-distance net work引出來...後面句子表明其不重要...也是為了引出高山自有的特殊方式...答案當然不可過度推論說增加long-distance net work...因為也有可能就是因為long-distance net work作到極限也無法讓高山人生存...他們才被迫有特殊的農業經濟....

到此答案已經很明顯了~~~
