閱讀測驗是很多考生畏懼的英文題型之一,其實閱題測驗的的解題並不難,因為外國人寫文章都愛用破題法,只要看第一段即可知道文章大概在講什麼內容。例如在此篇文章的一開始,有提到”marriage” (婚姻)、”Alaska” (阿拉斯加)、” the oil industry”(石油工業),所以文章一定就是把阿拉斯加與石油工業比喻成婚姻關係。

Alaska and its bride, the oil industry, enjoyed a mutually enriching
bond. Then, on March 24, 1989, the industry betrayed us. Alaskans
awoke that day to more than 10 million gallons of crude oil, bled from
