  Just under a decade ago, America seemed on the cusp of an auto revolution. Faced with a slumping economy and skyrocketing oil prices, drivers were turning away from costly, gas-guzzling SUVs—think of the Hummer brand that General Motors killed in 2010—and toward hybrid-electric cars that promised, over time, to save them millions at the pump. The technology was poised to go mainstream, thanks in part to a freshly elected President Obama, who promised to make it cheaper to produce greener cars—which in turn would make it cheaper to buy them.

  Which of the following one is true according to the first paragraph?

  (A) The dramatic rise of the oil price has spelt the death of Hummer.

  (B) The President Obama has made the auto revolution of hybrid-electric cars.

  (C) The price of gasoline has made the cusp of General Motors.

  (D) The technology has made the gasoline much cheaper than before.

  长难句解析:

  Just under a decade ago, America seemed on the cusp of an auto revolution.

  在不到十年前,美国似乎走上了一场汽车革命的风口浪尖。

  Faced with a slumping economy and skyrocketing oil prices, drivers were turning away from costly, gas-guzzling SUVs—think of the Hummer brand that General Motors killed in 2010—and toward hybrid-electric cars that promised, over time, to save them millions at the pump.

  面对经济低迷和油价飙涨,司机不再青睐昂贵的、耗油的SUV——想想2010年通用汽车毙了的悍马品牌——而转向随着时间推移,可为他们在油耗方面节省数以百万费用的油电混合动力车。

  The technology was poised to go mainstream, thanks in part to a freshly elected President Obama, who promised to make it cheaper to produce greener cars—which in turn would make it cheaper to buy them.

  Be poised to do sth : 做好准备做什么…

  这项技术已准备好成为主流;这部分归功于刚当选的总统奥巴马,他承诺会让环保汽车的生产再便宜一些——这又会使得购买得更便宜。

  Which of the following one is true according to the first paragraph?

  (A) The dramatic rise of the oil price has spelt the death of Hummer.

  线索句:

  Faced with a slumping economy and skyrocketing oil prices,

  面对着经济低迷和油价飙涨(原因)

  Think of the Hummer brand that General Motors killed in 2010 (结果)

  有同学说导致悍马品牌死亡的是两个原因,现在只说一个原因可以吗?当然可以!

  A和B导致了C;

  选项可以替换为:A导致了C; B导致了C; 都算正确!

  除非有了直接照抄的:“A和B导致了C”得选这个最佳选项;

  (B) The President Obama has made the auto revolution of hybrid-electric cars.

  这是没有提及的选项直接排除;

  (C) The price of gasoline has made the cusp of General Motors.

  这是拼凑的选项,排除!

  (D) The technology has made the gasoline much cheaper than before.

  技术让开车更省油,变得便宜,没问题,但是没有让汽油变的更便宜,排除!
