2015年6月·第1套 英语六级阅读理解（四选一） 第 1 篇 · 46–50 题答案与解析

What do many people think is the biggest problem facing Janet Yellen? 是 What 引出的事实问句，答案就在原文，无需推理。

题干主干是 What do many people think，其中 is the biggest problem facing Janet Yellen 是 think 的宾语从句；facing Janet Yellen 是分词短语作 problem 的后置定语，相当于 that faces Janet Yellen。结构平铺直叙，无陷阱。

• A)无中生有

  Lack of money. 在原文中找不到任何对应——P2 谈的是 Fed 向市场"砸钱" $3.8 trillion money dump，恰恰相反。

• B)张冠李戴

  Subprime crisis. 来自 warnings about the subprime(次级债) meltdown——那是 Yellen 危机早期的预警内容，不是 many people think 当前 Yellen 面临的最大问题。

• C)✓ 正确
  • unemployment is the major economic and social concern of our day↔Unemployment.
  • the major economic and social concern↔biggest problem

  预判答案是"失业"，Unemployment. 与之完全一致，无任何争议。

• D)过度推断

  Social instability. 是从 economic and social concern 中 social 一词过度延伸出来的——"社会层面的关切"不等于"社会不稳定"。

What did Yellen help the Fed do to tackle the 2008 financial crisis? 直问一个已发生的具体动作，无推理信号。

题干主干是 What did Yellen help the Fed do，help 后省略 to 接动词原形 do；to tackle the 2008 financial crisis 是不定式短语作目的状语。无陷阱。

• A)与原文相反

  Take effective measures to curb inflation. 与原文方向相反——Fed 是大规模向市场注资（应对通缩与衰退），不是"遏制通胀"。通胀只在 P4 作为"少数专家的担忧"被提及。

• B)张冠李戴

  Deflate the bubbles in the American economy. 来自 deflate bubbles——那是"未来退出刺激"时要做的事，不是 to tackle the 2008 financial crisis 时 Yellen 帮 Fed 做的事。

• C)无中生有

  Formulate policies to help financial institutions. 在原文中找不到对应——Fed 是向市场"砸钱"，不是"为金融机构定政策"；且 P6 显示 Yellen 反而要加强对金融业的监管。

• D)✓ 正确
  • vast amounts of money in the form of asset buying↔Pour money into the market through asset buying.
  • Yellen...was one of the principal architects of the Fed's $3.8 trillion money dump↔Pour money into the market through asset buying.

  预判"通过买资产向市场注资"与 Pour money into the market through asset buying. 完全一致。

What is a greater concern of the general public? 直问"什么是 X"，是事实型问句，答案在原文。

题干 What is a greater concern of the general public?：主干是 What is a concern，greater 是 concern 的前置定语（比较级形容词），of the general public 是介词短语作 concern 的后置定语。比较级是关键信号，提示原文存在对照。

• A)张冠李戴

  Recession. 来自 the recession and recovery that followed——那是 2008 危机之后的"过去衰退"，不是当前"更多人担心"的对象。

• B)✓ 正确
  • more people worry about the opposite, deflation(通货紧缩)↔Deflation.
  • more people↔general public

  预判答案是 deflation（通缩），Deflation. 与之完全一致。

• C)过度推断

  Inequality. 来自 the economy increasingly divided between the well-off and the long-term unemployed——那只是"通缩"担忧的背景描述，不是"担忧本身"。把背景升级为答案，属于过度推断。

• D)无中生有

  Income. 在原文中没有作为"普通大众的担忧对象"出现——wages still relatively flat 只是引出通缩担忧的论据之一，工资 ≠ 担忧的对象。

What is Yellen likely to do in her position as the Fed chief? 直问一个具体行动，无推理信号词。

题干 What is Yellen likely to do in her position as the Fed chief?：主干 What is Yellen likely to do，be likely to do 是固定结构表"很可能做某事"；in her position as the Fed chief 是介词短语作状语，as 引出 position 的同位语。

• A)与原文相反

  Develop a new monetary program. 在原文中没有对应——文中提到的"unconventional monetary program"是 P2 已经在做的 3.8 万亿计划，而 get the Fed and the markets out of 表明她要做的是退出该计划，不是"开发新计划"。

• B)无中生有

  Restore public confidence. 在原文中找不到对应——文中既未提到"public confidence"这一概念，也未把"恢复信心"列为 Yellen 的任务。

• C)✓ 正确
  • the Fed has been too slack on regulation of finance↔Tighten financial regulation.
  • Yellen is likely to address the issue↔Tighten financial regulation.

  预判"收紧金融监管"与 Tighten financial regulation. 完全一致。

• D)过度推断

  Reform the credit system. 来自 it creates another credit crisis 的 credit 一词——"信贷危机"只是被警告要避免的事，文章从未提 Yellen 要"改革信贷体系"。

How does Alan Blinder portray Yellen? 问 X 如何描绘 Y，本质是问 X 说了什么、说了哪个特点。

题干 How does Alan Blinder portray Yellen?：主干是 How does Alan Blinder portray Yellen，portray 后直接接宾语 Yellen，How 问描绘方式。结构简单。

• A)✓ 正确
  • She can persuade without creating hostility↔She possesses strong persuasive power.
  • without creating hostility↔strong persuasive power

  引语前半段并列形容词（smart / logical / willing to argue / good listener）都是铺垫，最后一句 She can persuade without creating hostility 才是这段评价的整合性落点；选项 A 直接对应该落点。

• B)无中生有

  She has confidence in what she is doing. 在 Alan Blinder 的引语中找不到对应——引语谈的是聪明、逻辑、能说服，没有提及"对自己所做之事有信心"。

• C)张冠李戴

  She is one of the world's greatest economists. 借了 A star economist known for her groundbreaking work on labor markets 的描述——但那是文章作者的评价，不是 Alan Blinder 引语里的话。题问 Alan Blinder 怎么描绘，答案必须来自引语内。

• D)过度推断

  She is the most powerful Fed chief in history. 借了 Yellen is the most powerful person in the world right now 的最高级——但原文说的是"当今世界最有权力的人"，且是作者本人的假设性表述，不是 Alan Blinder 说的，也不是"史上最有权力的 Fed 主席"。
