【總評】
本篇短文為敘述文章,講述主人公Mark在社區(qū)的個人經(jīng)歷。

第19題,答案出現(xiàn)在文章的開頭部分,Mark felt that it was time for him to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work. 句中出現(xiàn)選項中關(guān)鍵詞community。選項B. Get involved in his community為原文內(nèi)容的同義替換。

第20題,答案緊隨其后,The area city council woman was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was on the decline. 這里的the quality of life生活質(zhì)量是選項中的關(guān)鍵詞,同時,on the decline在選項中被同義替換為deterioration。

第21題,關(guān)于Mark對于社區(qū)問題的看法,文中相對應(yīng)的原文為It was too much for Mark. “The problems are too big”, he thought. 因此在Mark看來這些問題對于個人而言太大了,是理所不能及的,因此應(yīng)該選擇D. They are too big for individual efforts.

第22題,提問在回家的路上Mark為何笑了,可以通過對路上發(fā)生的事情進(jìn)行概括,因為他從小善開始做起。

在人物個人經(jīng)歷的文章中,我們可以從人物本身的活動與想法語言中得到關(guān)鍵信息。本篇難度適中。
