照例直接上题:A. The report cited Bangladesh as one of more “potential impact hotspots” threatened by “extreme river floods, more intense tropical cyclones, rising sea levels and very high temperatures”.B. Depicting life in a not-too-distant future shaped by already present warming trends, the report warns that even 20 to 30 years from now, shifting rain patterns could leave some areas under water and others without enough water for power generation, irrigation or drinking.C. Cyclone Sidr exposed 3.45 million households to inundation. A potential 10 year return cyclone in 2050 could expose 9.7 million people to more than 3 meters of inundation affecting agriculture and lives. D. South Asia is already experiencing a warming climate.E. Bangladesh will be among the most affected countries in South Asia by an expected 2°c rise in the world’s average temperatures in the next decades, with rising sea levels and more extreme heat and more intense cyclones threatening food production, livelihoods, and infrastructure.
这道题是有同学在PTE学习群内提出的，应该有同学也在网上看到过。从题目的逻辑和套路上来看肯定不是PTE考试的真题，因为有的选项逻辑比较模棱两可，不过既然有同学问了，小助手就还是给大家讲讲这个题，大家可以做做看。
A. The report cited Bangladesh as one of more “potential impact hotspots” threatened by “extreme river floods, more intense tropical cyclones, rising sea levels and very high temperatures”.
【A选项提到了the report. 很明显它的前一个段落应该出现The report到底是什么。同时注意这里出现了cyclones这个关键词，它是report的第一个关键点，以及后面的high temperatures，它是report的第二个关键点。由此我们可以去判断接下来段落的顺序】
B. Depicting life in a not-too-distant future shaped by already present warming trends, the report warns that even 20 to 30 years from now, shifting rain patterns could leave some areas under water and others without enough water for power generation, irrigation or drinking.
【B选项同样提到了the report, 并且already present warming trends也是关键信息。根据A选项的内容我们可以判断B选项应该是出现在跟cyclone有关的段落之后的。
C. Cyclone Sidr exposed 3.45 million households to inundation. A potential 10 year return cyclone in 2050 could expose 9.7 million people to more than 3 meters of inundation affecting agriculture and lives.
【C选项提到了cyclone，浏览可以发现C选项讲解的是Example/Detail Figures for cyclones. 可以判断C应该是接在A之后，AC一分可以保证拿到。同时刚刚B选项我们已经判定是出现在cyclone相关段落之后的，所以CB的连接也可以确定了。】
D. South Asia is already experiencing a warming climate.
【D选项非常有迷惑性，可以作为总起句，也可以作为结尾句。这就是小助手刚刚说的逻辑上比较模棱两可的选项】
E. Bangladesh will be among the most affected countries in South Asia by an expected 2°c rise in the world’s average temperatures in the next decades, with rising sea levels and more extreme heat and more intense cyclones threatening food production, livelihoods, and infrastructure.
【E选项非常明显，其实讲的就是关于Bangladesh的那份Report，所以E肯定是在A之前的，EA一分可以拿到。那么D到底是放在哪里呢？？？】
这道题可以明确地告诉大家肯定不是PTE考试的真题，因为D的位置实在太过模棱两可，可以说放在最首和最末都能够算是正确的。从能够找到的这段文字的原文来说，D是放在B之后的。所以最后的正确答案是EACBD。不过如果你放在句首，也不能算错啦~因为真的没什么太紧密的逻辑联系…PTE考试绝对不会出现此类模棱两可的情形，一般逻辑联系都会更紧密，仅有唯一的答案。所以大家不用纠结这题D的位置。更重要的是看看自己EA, AC, CB这三个逻辑关系比较紧密的段落有没有连接正确。 |
