问题 判断题


Private information from Polish secret agents enabled the British Customs authorities to confiscate the arms shipment which was ordered by the Ulster Volunteer Force.

答案

参考答案:

解析:[听力原文] British Customs authorities have confiscated a huge shipment of weapons bound for Protestant gunmen in Northern Ireland. It was said to be the biggest seizure of arms in British history. Authorities, tipped off by Polish agents, found more than 300 assault rifles and two metric tons of explosives on a polish freighter in Northern Britain. The outlawed Ulster Volunteer Force admitted that it was waiting for the shipment in Belfast.

[分析]: 主要信息的找寻和判断。 原文中主要信息有三点:1)由British Customs authorities have confiscated a huge shipment of weapons 可知,英国海关没收了—“大批武器;2)由the biggest seizure of arms... tipped off by Polish agents可知,由于波兰间谍告密,(英国海关)才成功地缴获了如此多的武器;3)由Ulster Volunteer Force admitted that it was waiting for the shipment可知,该组织承认他们是这批武器的买主。由此可见,题干的内容与原文主干部分内容相符,是正确的。[解题关键] 1)从复杂的信息中识别主干部分的主要内容是解题的关键。本题的信息庞杂,因此要根据题干内容抓住原文话语中的主干部分,排除次要信息,如一些起修饰作用的短语和词汇及对这批军火的具体统计数据等;2)掌握同义词替换,原文中tip off 意为“为……通风报信”,与题干中enabled...to...相呼应。
