A deal is a deal—except, apparently, when Entergy is involved.
协议就是协议——但显然的，Entergy公司就是个例外。
The company, a major energy supplier in New England , provoked
justified outrage in Vermont last week when it announced it was reneging on a longstanding commitment to abide by the strict nuclear regulations.
该公司是新英格兰地区的⼀家主要能源供应商。当它上星期宣布将违背“遵守严格的核安全条例”这⼀⼀期许诺时，在佛蒙特州激起了愤怒，这种愤怒合乎情理。
Instead, the company has done precisely what it had long promised it would not: challenge the constitutionality of Vermont's rules in the federal court, as part of a desperate effort to keep its Vermont Yankee
nuclear power plant running.
然⼀，Entergy公司恰恰做出了它过去⼀直承诺不会做的事：在联邦法庭上质疑佛蒙特州核规则的合宪性。这是它为了使佛蒙特州扬基核电⼀继续运营⼀做出的拼死努⼀的⼀部分。

1-If the trade unionist Jimmy Hoffa were alive today,he would probably represent civil servant.
When Hoffa’s Teamsters were in their prime in1960,only one in ten American government workers belonged to a union;now36%do.
In2009the number of unionists in America’s public sector passed that of their fellow members in the private sector.
In Britain,more than half of public-sector workers but only about15%of private-sector ones are unionized.
2-There are three reasons for the public-sector unions’thriving.
First,they can shut things down without suffering much in the way of consequences.
Second,they are mostly bright and well-educated.

最近几年的四级仔细阅读题对于文章细节的考查力度不断加大。在笔者看来，细节题的模式大致可以分成两大类：一类是事实型细节题，另一类是观点型细节题。本文重点谈观点型细节题的解题策略。
所谓观点型细节题，顾名思义，就是针对某人的观点进行提问的题型。这种题型主要有两种考查方式：一种是考查文中出现的某个特定人物的观点，另一种是考查作者所持的观点。前者往往是考查的重点。观点型细节题非常容易辨认，2011年6月四级考试仔细阅读部分的第61、64、65、66题就属于该题型，如下所示。
61. What does Grace Kao say about interracial lodging?64. What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum’s report?65. What is Soren Andreasen’s view of the report?66. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?
看完以上几道题目的题干，考生应该已经明白，尽管观点型细节题提问的内容千变万化，但是其出题模式是固定的，我们可以把这类题型的提问形式总结为以下公式：观点型细节题=某人+表观点的词。公式中的“某人”常常以专有名词的形式出现，如上述题干中出现的Grace Kao 、Dr. Pielke 、Soren Andreasen 和Kofi Annan 。而公式中的“表观点的词”则是指上述题干中的say 、view 等表示观点、看法的词汇。为了让考生对观点型细节题有一个更为全面的认识，下文笔者将对这类题型的解题方法进行具体介绍，并通过实例进行分析讲解。

Passage One
Title: The Dilemma of the Compassionate Samaritan
One of the questions we might ask ourselves is: Why did the lawyer pass by the man in need of help? He could have stopped to render assistance, thus fulfilling the primary responsibility of human beings towards one another - to show compassion and offer help in times of need. But the lawyer's behavior is hardly anomalous. We all have learned to be "selectively compassionate". In our heart of hearts, we know full well that there are countless individuals who are in urgent need of our help. The reality, however, is that there are also constraints on our ability and willingness to come to their rescue: the demands of our own lives, the limitations of our resources, and the constraints imposed by society.

①Come on—Everybody's doing it. ②That whispered message, half invitation and half forcing, is what most of us think of when we hear the words peer pressure. ③It usually leads to no good—drinking, drugs and casual sex. ④But in her new book, Join the Club, Tina Rosenberg contends that peer pressure can also be a positive force through what she calls the social cure, in which organizations and officials use the power of group dynamics to help individuals improve their lives and possibly the world.
①Rosenberg, the recipient of a Pulitzer Prize, offers a host of examples of the social cure in action: In South Carolina, a state-sponsored antismoking program called Rage Against the Haze sets out to make cigarettes uncool. ②In South Africa, an HIV-prevention initiative known as loveLife recruits young people to promote safe sex among their peers.
①The idea seems promising, and Rosenberg is a perceptive observer. ②Her critique of the lameness of many public-health campaigns is spot-on: they fail to mobilize peer pressure for healthy habits, and they demonstrate a seriously flawed understanding of psychology. ③“Dare to be different, please don't smoke!”pleads one billboard campaign aimed at reducing smoking among teenagers—teenagers, who desire nothing more than fitting in. ④Rosenberg argues convincingly that public-health advocates ought to take a page from advertisers, so skilled at applying peer pressure.
①But on the general effectiveness of the social cure, Rosenberg is less persuasive. ②Join the Club is filled with too much irrelevant detail and not enough exploration of the social and biological factors that make peer pressure so powerful. ③The most glaring flaw of the social cure as it's presented here is that it doesn't work very well for very long. ④Rage Against the Haze failed once state funding was cut. ⑤Evidence that the loveLife program produces lasting changes is limited and mixed.
①There's no doubt that our peer groups exert enormous influence on our behavior. ②An emerging body of research shows that positive health habits—as well as negative ones—spread through networks of friends via social communication. ③This is a subtle form of peer pressure: we unconsciously imitate the behavior we see every day.
①Far less certain, however, is how successfully experts and bureaucrats can select our peer groups and steer their activities in virtuous directions. ②It's like the teacher who breaks up the troublemakers in the back row by pairing them with better-behaved classmates. ③The tactic never really works. ④And that's the problem with a social cure engineered from the outside: in the real world, as in school, we insist on choosing our own friends.
