The lives of very few Newark residents are untouched by violence: New Jersey's biggest city has seen it all. Yet the murder of three young people, who were forced to kneel before being shot in the back of the head in a school playground on August 4th, has shaken the city. A fourth, who survived, was stabbed and shot in the face. The four victims were by all accounts good kids, all enrolled in college, all with a future. But the cruel murder, it seems, has at last forced Newarker to say they have had enough.
Grassroots organizations, like Stop Shootin' have been flooded with offers of help and support Since the killings. Yusef Ismail, its co-founder, says the group has been going door-to-door asking people to sign a pledge of non-violence. They hope to get 50, 000 to promise to “stop shootin', start thinkin', and keep livin'" The Newark Community Foundation, which was launched last month, announced on August 14th that it will help pay for Community Eye, a surveillance (监视) system tailored towards gun crime.
Cory Booker, who became mayor 13 months ago with a mission to revitalize the city, believes the surveillance program will be the largest camera and audio network in any American city. More than 30 cameras were installed earlier this summer and a further 50 will be installed soon in a seven-square-mile area where 80% of the city's recent shootings have occurred. And more cameras are planned.
When a gunshot is detected, the surveillance camera zooms in on that spot. Similar technology in Chicago has increased arrests and decreased shootings. Mr. Booker plans to announce a comprehensive gun strategy later this week.
Mr. Booker, as well as church leaders and others, believes (or hopes) that after the murder the city will no longer stand and by in coldness. For generations, Newark has been paralyzed by poverty-almost one in three people lives below the poverty line - and growing indifference to crime.
Some are skeptical. Steven Malanga of the conservative Manhattan Institute notes that Newark has deep social problems: over 60% of children are in homes without fathers. The school system, taken over by the state in 1995, is a mess. But there is also some cause for hope. Since Mr.Booker was elected. there has been a rise in investment and re-zoning for development. Only around 7% of nearby Newark airport workers used to come from Newark; now, a year, the figure is 30%. Mr. Booker has launched a New York-style war on crime. So far this year, crime has fallen 11% and shootings are down 30% (though the murder rate looks likely to match last year's high).

参考答案
46 答案 D
本题信息点是happened in Newark,New Jersey on August 4th “8 月4 日新泽西 Newark 市发生” 我们知道文章中必然有该信息点。在文中查阅,该信息点出现在第一段第二句和第三句:the murder of three young people “三位年轻人被谋杀”:A fourth,who survived,was stabbed and shot in the face “第四个年轻人幸存,但是被扎伤,同时面部受到了枪击”,由此我们可以判断本题答案为 D.
47. 答案 A
词义推断题的解题过程是阅读文章直到找到题目所规定的词语,再根据上下文的线索合理推断。常见的上下文推断线索有: 句内的定语,上下旬的因果、举例、定义、重述、反义或同义等关系。在查阅时我们看到该词出现在文章第二段最后一句,幸运的是该词之后有逗号,这就说明逗号之后的部分与该词是同位语关系,也就是对该词的解释: 更幸运的是该词同位语部分命题人竟然给出了汉语解释。这样我们就可以推断该词大意是监视系统,由此确定本题答案为A。
48.答案 B
本题信息点是Newark has a1lthe following problems “Newark 有问题”。在查阅时我们看到第五段尽管没有直接用problem 一词,但是murder,poverty,indifference 都属于该城市的问题,因此本题答案为B。这里需要说明,flood一词在本文第二段第一句话出现过,但这里并非 “洪水”之意,而是 ”大量涌来” 之意。
49.答案 C
本题的信息点是Mayor Booker’s effort against crime “Booker 市长防止犯罪的努力”。细节信息题的解题思路是首先在文中找到信息点所在语句,再从语言层次理解这些相关语句,再对各句的信息在心里归纳总结,最后与题目所给的四个选项逐一认真比对,做出正确选择。本题信息点出现在全文最后两句: Mr. Booker has launched a New York-style war on crime ”Booker 市长对犯罪发动了纽约式的打击“,接下来一句So far this year,crime. has fallen 11% and shootings are down 30% “犯罪下降11%,枪击案下降了30%”,由此我们归纳Booker市长防止犯罪的努力的相关信息:1) 纽约式:2) 犯罪及枪击案下降。这样我们可以确定本题答案为C 项.
50. 答案 B。
主旨题我们大多都可以通过对第一段的理解以及对文章写作手法认知而解决。首段提问、首段独句、转移中心、大众观点. 事例开头. 类比开头都是我们在前面讲述过的能表述主旨的写作手法。本文首段采用了个案 (事例) 开头的手法,这样主题可能会在第一段的最后一句或者第二段的第一句表述。先看第一段最后一句:But the cruel murder,it seems,has at last forced Newarker to say they have had enough“但是,这次残忍的谋杀案终于迫使Newark 的市民们说他们受够了”,本句中的转折词but 起到“转移重心,提出主题”的作用,也就是说这次谋杀案在文中的作用只是引子,下文不再涉及,而本文的主题是“市民们被迫说他们受够了”,这就暗示他们要对犯罪有所行动了。基于这样的理解我们便可以确定本题答案为B.
