A、KillingPowerofAncientVolcanicEruptions

B、AccountingfortheKillingPowerofOlderEruptions

C、CalculationoftheKillingPowerofOlderEruptions

D、AMassExtinction

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】本段第一句話是說：Wignallcalculatedthe"killingefficiency'1forthese

volcanoes...；Wignall計(jì)算了這些火山的“滅絕效率〃；其中killingefficiency與

killingPower意思差不多，屬于同義詞轉(zhuǎn)換，因此選擇B或C,但是accountfor意

思是：（在數(shù)量方面）占；說明（原因等）不符合句意，因此不選擇B。

system.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】c

［答案解析］答案選C。問題句說“Hilary的一個競選承諾是改革國家的醫(yī)療制度」

而本段只是說"女人做教育和醫(yī)療方面的工作有優(yōu)勢"，沒有說Hillary的一個競選

承諾式改革國家的醫(yī)療制度，因此問題句的信息在文章中沒有被提到。
