In 1896 gold was discovered near the Klondike River (似乎暗示A是答案)但是段未句Planes fly passengers, mail and freight to the most distant villages又暗示C是答案,段落中间的结构Alaska was never completely cut off again, although even today transportation is a major problem. There are only two motor routes暗示交通是该段的主题,因此判断C是答案。 思路特点:抓住段首句/段未句大意,并注意段落中间句子中的结构和用词特点。 A. Rich resources of the state B. Connection with the outside world E. Cold climate 4. paragraph 6__________ The gold that changed life so suddenly for Alaska was soon ended, and although many stories about mining camps have become part of American literature, the gold from Alaskan earth contributed less to economic progress than the fish from Alaskan waters.
