They say Ireland’s the Best
Ireland is the best place in the world to live in for 2005, according to a life quality ranking that appeared in Britain’s Economist magazine last week.
The ambitious attempt to compare happiness levels around the world is based on the principle that wealth is not the only measure of human satisfaction and well-being.
The index of 111 countries uses data on incomes, health, unemployment, climate, political stability, job security, gender equality as well as what the magazine calls “freedom, family and community life”.
Despite the bad weather, troubled health service, traffic congestion (擁擠), gender inequality, and the high cost of living, Ireland scored an impressive 8.33 points out of 10.
That put it well ahead of second-place Switzerland, which managed 8.07. Zimbabwe, troubled by political insecurity and hunger, is rated the gloomiest(最差的) , picking up only 3. 89 points.
“Although rising incomes and increased individual choices are highly valued, ” the report said, “some of the factors associated with modernization such as the breakdown(崩潰) in traditional institutions and family values in part take away from a positive impact.
“Ireland wins because it successfully combines the most desirable elements of the new with the preservation of certain warm elements of the old, such as stable family and community life.”
The magazine admitted measuring quality of life is not a straightforward thing to do, and that its findings would have their critics.
No. 2 on the list is Switzerland. The other nations in the top 10 are Norway, Luxembourg, Sweden, Australia, Iceland, Italy, Denmark and Spain.
The UK is positioned at No. 29, a much lower position chiefly because of the social and family breakdown recorded in official statistics. The US, which has the second highest per capita GDP (人均國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值) after Luxembourg, took the 13th place in the survey. China was in the lower half the league at 60th.

閱讀判斷解析及參考答案:
1. B. 分析: 問(wèn)題句說(shuō)“在2005年的時(shí)間里,愛(ài)爾蘭一直是最適合人類居住的地方。” 句子中的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)恰恰就是我們所說(shuō)的一種可作為線索的特征結(jié)構(gòu)(因?yàn)閿?shù)字容易在文章中被查找到), 我們利用2,005作為答案線索,這樣在文章中找到答案相關(guān)句:Ireland is the best place in the world to live in for 2005, according to a life quality ranking that appeared in Britain’s Economist magazine last week.劃線結(jié)構(gòu)中提到的是“for 2005(對(duì)2005年而言)”, 不是問(wèn)題句中說(shuō)的“For 2,005 years(在2005年的時(shí)間里)”, 而且劃線結(jié)構(gòu)說(shuō)“愛(ài)爾蘭是2005年世界上最適合居住的地方” , 顯然這個(gè)內(nèi)容與問(wèn)題句的內(nèi)容不一致, 因此判斷問(wèn)題句的說(shuō)法錯(cuò)誤。
2. C. 分析:?jiǎn)栴}句說(shuō)“職業(yè)穩(wěn)定是衡量生活質(zhì)量的最不重要的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。”利用題干中出現(xiàn)的核心短語(yǔ)“(主語(yǔ))Job security/職業(yè)穩(wěn)定”和“(表語(yǔ))life quality/生活質(zhì)量”作為答案線索,同時(shí)關(guān)注題干中出現(xiàn)的修飾結(jié)構(gòu)“the least important/最不重要的”, 這樣找到答案相關(guān)句:Ireland is the best place in the world to live in for 2005, according to a life quality ranking that appeared in Britain’s Economist magazine last week.
The ambitious attempt to compare happiness levels around the world is based on the principle that wealth is not the only measure of human satisfaction and well-being.
The index of 111 countries uses data on incomes, health, unemployment, climate, political stability, job security, gender equality as well as what the magazine calls “freedom, family and community life”. 題干中的核心短語(yǔ)分散在了兩個(gè)句子中, 但是在這兩個(gè)看似與問(wèn)題句相關(guān)的句子中并沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)比較的結(jié)構(gòu),推測(cè)這道題可能在考察考生的推斷能力。 第一個(gè)劃線句說(shuō)“根據(jù)上周出現(xiàn)在英國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家雜志上的生活質(zhì)量排名,愛(ài)爾蘭是2005年世界上最適合居住的地方。”這句話的內(nèi)容與問(wèn)題句不相關(guān),第2個(gè)劃線句說(shuō)“111個(gè)國(guó)家使用的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)除了包括那本雜志上提到的“自由,家庭和社會(huì)生活”這方面的數(shù)據(jù), 還涉及到了有關(guān)收入, 健康, 失業(yè), 氣候, 政治穩(wěn)定性, 職業(yè)穩(wěn)定, 和性別平等的數(shù)據(jù)內(nèi)容。”這句話表明“工作穩(wěn)定與收入, 健康等這些內(nèi)容共同組成衡量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)”,而且前一個(gè)劃線句提到“愛(ài)爾蘭在生活質(zhì)量排名中位于第一位”, 因此可以推斷出這111個(gè)國(guó)家應(yīng)該是參加“生活質(zhì)量”排名的國(guó)家,當(dāng)然這些國(guó)家所使用的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)也就是“衡量生活質(zhì)量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)”,但是文章中并沒(méi)有對(duì)“職業(yè)穩(wěn)定”等這些衡量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)進(jìn)行比較, 沒(méi)有說(shuō)哪方面的因素最重要的/最不重要的衡量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。因此判斷這個(gè)問(wèn)題句的說(shuō)法為“沒(méi)提到”。
3. A.分析:?jiǎn)栴}句說(shuō)“愛(ài)爾蘭的生活費(fèi)用高”。 利用題干中的核心短語(yǔ)“(主語(yǔ))Cost of living/生活費(fèi)用”作為答案線索, 同時(shí)關(guān)注題干中出現(xiàn)的修飾結(jié)構(gòu)“pretty high/相當(dāng)高”,這樣找到答案相關(guān)句:Despite the bad weather, troubled health service, traffic congestion (擁擠), gender inequality, and the high cost of living, Ireland scored an impressive 8.33 points out of 10. 題干的核心短語(yǔ)和修飾結(jié)構(gòu)都出現(xiàn)在這個(gè)句子中,因此判斷這個(gè)句子很可能就是直接答案相關(guān)句,該句說(shuō)“盡管氣候惡劣, 健康機(jī)構(gòu)混亂, 交通擁擠, 性別歧視仍然存在, 生活費(fèi)用高,愛(ài)爾蘭所獲得的分?jǐn)?shù)仍然給人留下了深刻的印象:滿分為十分,愛(ài)爾蘭獲得了8.33分”。根據(jù)這個(gè)句子的內(nèi)容可以知道“愛(ài)爾蘭的生活費(fèi)用高”,因此問(wèn)題句的說(shuō)法與原文的說(shuō)法一致。
4. C. 分析:?jiǎn)栴}句說(shuō)“在津巴布韋家庭生活是不穩(wěn)定的”。利用題干中的核心結(jié)構(gòu)“(主語(yǔ))Family life/家庭生活”和特征詞“Zimbabwe/津巴布韋”作為答案線索,同時(shí)關(guān)注題干中出現(xiàn)的修飾結(jié)構(gòu)“not stable(不穩(wěn)定的)”, 發(fā)現(xiàn)題干中的核心詞Family life根本就沒(méi)有在文章中出現(xiàn) (文章中相關(guān)的句子:Zimbabwe, troubled by political insecurity and hunger, is rated the gloomiest(最差的) , picking up only 3. 89 points.), 因?yàn)榕袛嘣搯?wèn)題句為“沒(méi)提到”。
5. A. 分析:?jiǎn)栴}句說(shuō)“愛(ài)爾蘭位居第一,因?yàn)樗研聲r(shí)期里最理想的因素和過(guò)去的一些好的東西融合在一起。”利用題干中出現(xiàn)的特征詞No. 1作為答案線索, 同時(shí)關(guān)注問(wèn)題句中出現(xiàn)的修飾結(jié)構(gòu)“the most desirable (elements)/最理想的” 和“some good (elements)/一些好的”, 這樣找到答案相關(guān)句:
Despite the bad weather, troubled health service, traffic congestion (擁擠), gender inequality, and the high cost of living, Ireland scored an impressive 8.33 points out of 10.
That put it well ahead of second-place Switzerland, which managed 8.07. Zimbabwe, troubled by political insecurity and hunger, is rated the gloomiest(最差的) , picking up only 3. 89 points.
“Although rising incomes and increased individual choices are highly valued, ” the report said, “some of the factors associated with modernization such as the breakdown(崩潰) in traditional institutions and family values in part take away form a positive impact.
“Ireland wins because it successfully combines the most desirable elements of the new with the preservation of certain warm elements of the old, such as stable family and community life.” 在這個(gè)斜體句中直接出現(xiàn)了問(wèn)題句中的一個(gè)修飾結(jié)構(gòu)the most desirable,推測(cè)句子中“Ireland wins(愛(ài)爾蘭獲勝了)”可能與題干中的特征結(jié)構(gòu)“愛(ài)爾蘭位居第一”呼應(yīng),“certain warm”可能與題干中的另一個(gè)修飾結(jié)構(gòu)“一些好的”呼應(yīng),這個(gè)句子很可能就是直接答案相關(guān)句, 該句說(shuō)“愛(ài)爾蘭獲勝了,因?yàn)樗晒Φ匕研聲r(shí)期最理想的因素和對(duì)過(guò)去某些溫暖的東西(如穩(wěn)定的家庭和社會(huì)生活)的保護(hù)結(jié)合了起來(lái)。” 從這個(gè)句意上看“溫暖的東西” 就是“好的東西”, 所以現(xiàn)在只需要確認(rèn)“Ireland wins(愛(ài)爾蘭獲勝了)”就是指“愛(ài)爾蘭位居第一”。 在前文中我們看到“愛(ài)爾蘭獲得的分?jǐn)?shù)給人留下了深刻的印象”(劃線句),接著看到“這使它遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)高于第2名瑞士”(劃線句), 因此判斷原文中說(shuō)的“Ireland wins(愛(ài)爾蘭獲勝了)”就是指“愛(ài)爾蘭位居第一”, 因此判斷問(wèn)題句的說(shuō)法正確。
6. B. 分析:?jiǎn)栴}句說(shuō)“衡量生活質(zhì)量很容易”。利用題干中的核心結(jié)構(gòu)“measure life quality”作為答案線索, 同時(shí)關(guān)注題干中出現(xiàn)的修飾詞easy, 這樣找到答案相關(guān)句:The magazine admitted measuring quality of life is not a straightforward thing to do, and that its findings would have their critics批評(píng)家. 該句說(shuō)“該雜志承認(rèn)衡量生活質(zhì)量不是一件直截了當(dāng)?shù)氖虑椋?承認(rèn)雜志上的數(shù)據(jù)將可能會(huì)受到批評(píng)。”顯然, 該句內(nèi)容表明“衡量生活質(zhì)量不是一件容易的事情”,因此問(wèn)題句的說(shuō)法“錯(cuò)誤”。
7. B. 分析:?jiǎn)栴}句說(shuō)“美國(guó)位于前十個(gè)國(guó)家的行列”。利用題干中的特征結(jié)構(gòu)The United States of America和top 10 countries(前十個(gè)國(guó)家)作為答案線索, 這樣找到答案相關(guān)句:The US, which has the second highest per capita GDP (人均國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值) after Luxembourg, took the 13th place in the survey. 題干中的兩個(gè)特征結(jié)構(gòu)都在這個(gè)句子中出現(xiàn)了, 因此判斷這個(gè)句子應(yīng)該是直接答案相關(guān)句, 該句說(shuō)“美國(guó)的人均國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值排名第2, 僅位于盧森堡之后, 因此美國(guó)在這項(xiàng)調(diào)查中位于第13位。”, 顯然問(wèn)題句的說(shuō)法與該句的說(shuō)法不一致,因此判斷問(wèn)題句“錯(cuò)誤”。
