　　A．$230.7

　　B．$233.7

　　C．$240.7

　　D．$243.7

　　解析　考查數(shù)字計算。根據(jù)文中信息和第65題題干可知，此時銀幣的單價是$38.45，再由“Note: $10 s/h (shipping and handling) for each purchase”可知，每筆交易運(yùn)費(fèi)是$10，故購買6枚銀幣需付$240.7($38.45×6＋ $10＝ $240.7)。答案為C。

　　答案C

　　以題說法

　　做計算類閱讀理解題時，一定要注意附加信息，該類信息往往在小括號內(nèi)，比較隱蔽。如本文中的“ Note：$10 s/h(shipping and handling)for each purchase”

　　突破指南

　　此類問題一般要求考生能根據(jù)閱讀材料中給出的有關(guān)數(shù)據(jù)，找出計算關(guān)系，通過計算，得出正確的結(jié)論。這類計算一般來說比較簡單，關(guān)鍵是要

　　易錯點5　無中生有

　　Yincang’s first hit song was In Beijing.It sets a melody(旋律) played on the Chinese traditional music instrument the erhu against a hip－h(huán)op beat.The song is an insider’s look at Beijing’s sights and sounds，such as traditional Siheyuan courtyard complexes，the bar area in Houhai，the Guijie food street and the clothes market near the zoo.

　　Which of the following about Beijing is NOT mentioned in the passage?

　　A．Traditional Siheyuan courtyard complexes.

　　B．The bar area in Houhai.

　　C．The Wangfujing Street.

　　D．The clothes market near the zoo.

　　解析　 C項內(nèi)容“the Wangfujing Street”雖是北京一地名，但文中并未提及，屬于無中生有。

　　答案　C

　　以題說法

　　細(xì)節(jié)題設(shè)置的干擾項往往是生活基本常識或普遍認(rèn)可的觀點，本身是正確的，但與文章問題毫不相干。考生在答題時往往容易忽視“in the author’s opinion”或“according to the passage”等類似的限定語，不顧文章的內(nèi)容，根據(jù)自己的生活常識和個人經(jīng)驗猜測作者的想法，從而導(dǎo)致錯誤答案。因此做這類試題時，考生應(yīng)特別注意作者的措辭。

　　突破指南

　　做事實細(xì)節(jié)題要用原文定位法

　　①根據(jù)題干中的關(guān)鍵詞，找準(zhǔn)相關(guān)

　　②在讀文章之前先讀題，對要考查的細(xì)節(jié)部分做簡要記錄，這樣，在讀文章時才能快而準(zhǔn)地鎖定目標(biāo)信息，以便節(jié)省時間和減少反復(fù)尋找細(xì)節(jié)的麻煩。對細(xì)節(jié)的考查通常涉及一些長難句，對此，不要驚慌，首先判斷是簡單句還是復(fù)合句，若是簡單句，先找句子的主、謂、賓，理解其主要意義，再加附屬成分的意義。若是復(fù)合句，先判斷從句，再分析各自的意義，最后整合句子意義。

　　③切不可斷章取義，脫離原文。
