TPO20阅读第一篇第4题求解
Q4 According to paragraph 2,all of the following are reasons why Americans migrated westward EXCEPT(A) The desire to move from one pace to the next(B) The hope of imroving their socioeconomic status(C) The opportunity to change jobs(D) The need to escape religious or political crisisANS:D However,given that I saw "some religious,political,or economic crisis uprooted them and drove them across the Atlantic." ,I thenchose A.Please tell me why the ANS is D.Thank you!TPO 20 Reading Section 1 Westward Migration Paragraph 4Why were these hundreds of thousands of setter-most of them farmers some of them artisan-drawn away from the cleared fields and established cities and villiages of the East?Certain characteristics of American society help to explain this remarkable migration.The European ancestors of some Americans had for centuries lived rooted to the same village or piece of land until some religious,political,or economic crisis uprooted them and drove them across the Atlantic.Many of those who experienced this sharp break thereafter lacked the ties that had bound them and their ncestors to a single place.Moreover,European society was relatively stratified; occupation and social status were inherited.In American society,however,the class structure was less rigid; some people changed occupations easily and believed it was their duty to improve their social and economic position.As a result,many Americans were an investerately restless,rootless,and ambitious people.Therefore,these social traits helped to produce the nomadic and daring settlers who kept pushing westward beyond the fringes of settlement.In addition,there were other immigrants who migrated west in search of new homes,material success,and better lives.
这道题看了好久,答案仅供参考啊.
答案是D没错,
A不对:In addition,there were other immigrants who migrated west in search of new homes,material success,and better lives.这说明他们是希望更好的生活的,因此移民.
B不对:changed occupations easily and believed it was their duty to improve their social and economic position 人们换工作,就是occupations,因为他们觉得那是他们的使命去改善他们的经济及社会地位,position 即status.
C不对:和b 的一起看,
D:The European ancestors of some Americans had for centuries lived rooted to the same village or piece of land until some religious,political,or economic crisis uprooted them and drove them across the Atlantic 仔细看d,就会发现其实他是在分析内些祖先因为宗教 政治等危机移民到了大西洋,而不是为什么美国人向西移民.
因此,只有d 不是美国人向西移民的理由.
