  37、[答案][A] the interference from interest groups

  [解析] 根据题干due to,判断本题考查因果细节。根据题干关键词:USPS fails to modernize 定位到原文第二段最后一句,在这句前leaving,留下,导致这个结果,往前找原因,前一句提到reform legislation, 而且这句前还有this is why,只要找到代词this指代就可以判断选项。代词往前推,根据这句主干interest groups exerts pressure on Congress选择选项A,interference 对应 exert pressure on。

  [干扰项分析]选项B,the inadequate funding from Congress,原文虽然有提到Congress国会,the aspect of status quo get protected, 国会保护USPS,并没有提及inadequate funding基金不足。选项C,the shrinking demand for postal service 邮政需求缩减,文中没有提及。选项D, the incompetence of postal unions 邮政工会的不作为。文章有提到工会,但是只提他们是属于Interest groups,并没有提到无作为。

  38、[答案][A] removing its burden of retiree health care

  [解析] 因果细节题。根据38题题干The long-standing complaint by the 。。。。回文定位到第3段,最后一句:“ The latter step would largely offset the financial burden of annually pre-funding retiree health care, thus。。。。” 。再根据题干中“ can be addressed by” 即:通过哪种方式解决,此处为解题要点,通过哪种方式来解决,前后明显为结果与途径的关系,即可理解为因果关系。文章此句后半句正是题干,thus前半句为答案The latter step would largely offset the financial burden of annually pre-funding retiree health care。与 A。 B 。 C 。D 四个选项匹配后,正确答案为 A removing its burden of retiree health care。

  39、[答案][C] discontent

  [解析]根据题干可以判断本题为观点态度题。回文定位到最后一段。题干“the author seems to view legislators with”, 具体定位到最后一段倒数第2句:“ The emerging。。。。。is a sign that legislators are getting frightened。。。。。。。” 再根据题干,问作者最终态度,本段最后一句,转折句是作者最终的态度:“ It is not, however, a sign that they’re getting serious about。。。。” , 即作者认为他们并没有认真对待。所以此处作者态度为否定。匹配A B C D 四个选项 只有C discontent( 不满)为负向信息,所以为正确答案。

  40、[答案][D] The Postal Service Needs more than a Band-Aid

  [解析]根据题干特征词“best title”,这是一道主旨题。根据前四道题问的主题,第一道题和第二道题是USPS出现了问题,并分析原因,第三道题给出解决方法,第四道题提到作者对于这个方法的态度,即提出问题—分析问题—解决问题,并在最后给出作者对这个解决方案的评价。根据这个文章框架,首先A选项“USPS开始错过了它的好时光”,这只是提出问题,相对片面;B选项“USPS:不要动我的奶酪”, 这是拒绝解决问题的态度,不符合文章的写作思路;C选项“USPS:慢性病需要快方法”,这个chronic和quick都没有在文中提到;D选项“USPS需要的不仅仅是权宜之计”,这说的其实作者对于解决方案的评价,在文章最后一段。这段最后结尾有But,有however, “it[指代前文讲的方法] is not a sign……”,对此作者表示否定态度。所以D选项为正确答案。

  [解析]C选项最后一句谈到了many historic events(建筑内呈现了历史事件),而G选项第一句提到了the history of the EEOB…(EEOB的历史。。。),意思一致,承上启下,故42题答案选G。

  43、[答案][A] In December of 1869, Congress appointed…

  [解析]确定G后,根据G选项最后一句,。。。the demolition of the State Department Building(谈到拆除the State Department Building), 而A选项中谈到了select a site and prepare plans and cost estimates for a new State Department,建立一个新的State Department Building,前后意思顺接,故43题答案选A。

  44、[答案][B] Completed in 1875, the State Department’s south wing…

  [解析] 根据给定的F段,首句是段落大意,该句提到了。。。as the building slowly rose wing by wing(该建筑逐翼展开)。 而B选项第一句谈到了。。。south wing was the first to be occupied(首先坐落在南翼),然后在B选项最后一句又谈到。。。moved into the east wing(之后又移至东翼)。 先在F段总起,再在B段中分说,前后对应,故44题答案选B。

  45、[答案][D] Many of the most celebrated national figures…

  [解析] B段结尾处谈到了where elaborate wall…decorated the office of the Secretary(这些精美的墙。。。。装饰了秘书处的办公室),而D段第一句提到了。。。that have taken place within the EEOB’s granite walls(历史事件在这些EEOB的墙上呈现), the wall原词复现,两句话意思一致,故45题答案选D。
