35. All cultures have been able to express large numbers clearly.

38. In the Tsimshian language, the number for long objects and canoes is expressed with the same word.

其中的33、36、37、38以及39由于題干中有大寫字母或年代這些相對(duì)容易原文定位的關(guān)鍵詞，則審題后可以帶著這些定位詞在原文中尋讀相關(guān)部分后先解這幾題，例如33題在文中對(duì)應(yīng)的部分為第三小節(jié)開頭，則根據(jù)順序原則32題在文中的對(duì)應(yīng)部分最后可能出現(xiàn)在開頭兩個(gè)小節(jié)中，這樣一來尋讀32題的范圍就縮小了，剩余題目也可以效仿這個(gè)方法。

再者，以“關(guān)系”的視角來解題，那么32題可以被看成是the concept of sufficiency 與the concept of quantity之間的比較關(guān)系，以這兩項(xiàng)回原文尋讀，對(duì)應(yīng)點(diǎn)為“Our ancestors had little use for actual numbers; Instead their considerations would have been more of the kind Is this enough? rather than How many? when they were engaged in food gathering, for example.”此句以 Is this enough 和How many兩個(gè)短句來同義替代題干中的兩個(gè)concept, 而句中提到的我們的祖先考慮較多的是夠不夠，而不是有多少則來同義轉(zhuǎn)換題干中的more important,因此由于比項(xiàng)均出現(xiàn)且二者的“關(guān)系”在文中也有同義表達(dá)，此題答案即為TRUE.此外40題也可以看作是有“關(guān)系”的題目，即fingers與 groups of pebbles之間的關(guān)系，用哪一個(gè)數(shù)數(shù)更容易，文中對(duì)應(yīng)點(diǎn)位 “Counting is not directly related to the formation of a number concept because it is possible to count by matching the items being counted against a group of pebbles, grains of corn, or the counter’s fingers.”,雖然產(chǎn)生“關(guān)系”的手指與鵝卵石均有重現(xiàn)，但二者并無任何比較關(guān)系，因此答案為NOT GIVEN.

上面列舉的只是判斷題解題方法的點(diǎn)滴，但也是比較容易被考生忽略的兩個(gè)點(diǎn)，不過要想運(yùn)用得當(dāng)，建議考生們除了多體會(huì)多練習(xí)以外，還應(yīng)結(jié)合具體考題，借鑒其他的方法，靈活運(yùn)用，才是上策。
