承諾式改革國(guó)家的醫(yī)療制度，因此問題句的信息在文章中沒有被提到。

contender.Q:OneofHillary'scampaignpromisesistoreformthenation'shealthcare

system.

A、True

B^False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】c

【答案解析】答案選Co問題句說“Hillary的一個(gè)競(jìng)選承諾是改革國(guó)家的醫(yī)療制度」

而本段只是說"女人做教育和醫(yī)療方面的工作有優(yōu)勢(shì)"，沒有說Hillary的一個(gè)競(jìng)選

承諾式改革國(guó)家的醫(yī)療制度，因此問題句的信息在文章中沒有被提到。

D、ofconductingelectricity

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】這部分所說的體積的減小和所需時(shí)間的縮短恰好與前半句中提到的

冰箱大小的體積和所需數(shù)分鐘的時(shí)間形成了對(duì)比。即：目前它大約像冰箱那么大，

而且要用幾分鐘掃描一個(gè)電路，但是他們正在努力使它縮小到臺(tái)式計(jì)算機(jī)那么大,

把掃描時(shí)間縮短到30秒。

【閱讀判斷】Backin1969,USPresidentRichardNixonconfidentlypredicted:"Inthe

next50years,weshallseeawomanpresident,perhapssoonerthanyouthink.”

Today,nottoofaroffNixon'sdeadline,Americaislookingatthatpossibility.Overthe

herrunfor2008presidency.Q:Uptothepresent,nowomanhasbeenelected

presidentintheUS.

A>True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】答案選A。問題句說"迄今為止在美國(guó)沒有一個(gè)女人曾經(jīng)被選舉為

總統(tǒng)"。本段說的是“1969年，美國(guó)總統(tǒng)RichardNixon很有信心地預(yù)測(cè)：’在下一

個(gè)50年里，我們將會(huì)看見一個(gè)女總統(tǒng)，這或許比你想象的更快些、今天距離

Nixon總統(tǒng)給出的最終期限已經(jīng)不遠(yuǎn)了，美國(guó)人現(xiàn)在正關(guān)注這可能性"。相鄰語句

的句意相關(guān)，顯然，定冠詞結(jié)構(gòu)"thepossibility"指答案相關(guān)句中提到的"可能出現(xiàn)

美國(guó)女總統(tǒng)”。從該句中可以推斷出"從1969年到現(xiàn)在為止，美國(guó)還沒有出現(xiàn)女

總統(tǒng)"。因此問題句提供了正確信息。
