在剑桥雅思真题系列IV中,Q13 / Passage 1 / Test 1:
题目:Answer the following questions by choosing the correct responses A-P. (Matching)
Which of the responses is cited as unexpectedly uncommon, given the amount of time spent on the issue by the newspapers and television?
本题是这一组Matching 题目Q9-13中难度最大的一个,考生应能根据整体文章的脉络意识到本题信息的大体位置。由于Q9-12均按顺序出场,而且覆盖了文章大部分中间篇幅,在应对最后一题Q13时,应考虑与Q12的关联,在随后的篇幅中按照关键词索骥。
句中unexpectedly uncommon 是非常合适的关键词,而time 以及随后出现的以newspaper 为代表的媒体是具体特征。
在全文倒数第三段中Line 4 出现了: This is surprising considering the high level of media coverage on this issue.
