　　點評：

　　這是篇可怕的文章，因為它談?wù)摰揭粋�充滿著神秘色彩的device，黑匣子。從文都考生的反饋，這五道題后四道的難度一般，倒是57題迷惑性較大，主要體現(xiàn)在C選項(Its ability to ward off disaster is incredible)。

　　57 What does the author say about the black box?

　　A: It ensures the normal functioning of an airplane.

　　B: The idea for its design comes from a comic book.

　　C: Its ability to ward off disaster is incredible.

　　D: It is an indispensable device on an airplane.

　　讓徐可風(fēng)帶著大家回原文第一段看看

　　You never see them, but they’re with you every time you fly. They record where you’re going, how fast you’re traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. They’re known as the black box.

　　57題誤選C的同學(xué)主要是對ward off 這個短語理解不到位。徐可風(fēng)提示：按照朗文詞典P1733的解釋ward off = prevent, keep away something bad 。請注意，是“prevent防止”。文章中很明確地提到，黑匣子只能“record記錄”，“withstand經(jīng)受住”disaster,根本就沒提到“防止”。徐可風(fēng)坐了三分之一輩子的飛機從來就沒有聽說過，飛機上放個黑匣子就能防止災(zāi)難的發(fā)生。要不以后飛機上專門擺一個神龕，上面供著一個黑匣子，燒幾把香就可以了。天啊!太有自信了，比“鳳姐”還牛。

　　不選D選項的同學(xué)還有一個可能就是對indispensable理解不到位，誤以為是“獨立”的意思。徐可風(fēng)提示，其實indispensable是“必不可少”的意思。
