老托精选阅读100篇之Passage 6中的两个问题!

问题一：断句应在used和from之间.use是谓语动词,不能去掉；而from是介词,是和之后的时间名词连用的,即from remote antiquity和from the early Middle Ages.若把这两个时间短语去掉,句子也是对的：Potash is one of the two alkalis that were used in the making of glass, and in the making of soap.若把used去掉,句子没有谓语,是错的.问题二：the softwoods in the South proved to be poor sources of the substance.这句话的意思是：softwoods不是生产potash的好的来源,故D选项正确.注意：1. the substance指的是potash；2. 辨析：resource是“资源”,source是“来源” "The resource of the softwoods is poor"才是"The softwoods were not very plentiful"的意思,A选项与原句意思相差甚远. 查看原帖
