文章背景
本文主要介绍了美国社会中的无家可归者,以及他们目前的现状:他们的数量已经增长至地方政府对付不了的地步,需要联邦政府采取措施帮助他们重新获得自立。但是,许多无家可归者即使在解决温饱之后仍然游荡街头,这是因为他们要么酗酒或吸毒成瘾,要么患严重的精神疾病,要么就是缺乏能够改变生活现状的生存技能。因此,要想从根本上帮助这些无家可归者,必须采取综合的彼此协调的一揽子措施。
文章结构
本文采用了总分的叙述方式,第一段提出了文章的主题"无家可归者的人数在增加,政府必须采取措施来解决这一问题"。第二段和第三段作者分别从这两个方面进行了论述,第二段提出无家可归者的人数在未来还会进一步增加;第三段提出了解决这一问题的方法。
答案详解
1. 【解析】[A] 语义衔接/逻辑衔接。The homeless make up a growing percentage of America's po pulation., homelessness has reached such proportions that…。"无家可归者在美国人口中占越来越大的比例。……无家可归者所占的比例已经达到如此地步,以至于……。" 选项A. indeed表示强调;B. likewise与……相似;C. therefore因此(强调结果);D. furthermore进一步说(表示递进)。根据前一句"make up a growing percentage"与后一句"reach such proportion that"确定后者是对前者的例证强调。因此,正确答案为A。
2.【解析】[B] 语义衔接题。本题目选择动词在定语从句中充当谓语。…homelessness has reached such proportions that local government can't possibly. "无家可归者所占的比例已经达到地方政府都无法……的地步。"选项A. stand 忍受;B. cope (成功地)对付,应对;C. approve 赞成,批准;D. retain 保留。stand作为及物动词在句子中要直接连接宾语,但是句子中没有宾语,因此该词不符合句子结构; cope作为不及物动词,可以在句子中表达完整的含义;C、D项与句意不符。因此,正确答案为B。
3.【解析】[D] 语义衔接题。本题目选择介词,选择介词与句子中的动词有直接关系。原文意为:帮助无家可归者达到独立。D项toward意为"达成,意在达到,以……为目标"。C项with可与help构成搭配to help sb. with sth."帮助某人做某事",与题意不符。因此,正确答案为D。
4.【解析】[A] 语义衔接题。the federal government must support job training programs,the minimum wage, and fund more low cost housing. "联邦政府必须提供就业培训项目,……最低工资标准,资助建设更多低价住房。" 句子中"the minimum wage"与前面的短语"support job training program"(提供就业培训项目)和后面的短语"fund more low cost housing"(资助建设更多低价住房)是并列关系。由提供信息确定选择"提高"之意。raise增加,提高,"提高最低工资标准",符合句子含义; add也意为"增加",但它的宾语一般是具体数字。因此,正确答案为A。
