从96年到2001年的真题中有一些题目是有参考价值的，
所以我会精选一些题目给大家；
今天的这个题目就是一道快成精的题目，历经近20年依然风采依旧，剑锋所指，所向披靡，看看今天有多少人能幸免吧！
今天的题目：
It’s a rough world out there. Step outside and you could break a leg slipping on
your doormat. Light up the stove and you could burn down the house. Luckily, if
the doormat or stove failed to warn of coming disaster, a successful lawsuit
might compensate you for your troubles. Or so the thinking has gone since the
early 1980s, when juries began holding more companies liable for their
customers’ misfortunes.
51. What were things like in 1980s when accidents happened?
[A] Customers might be relieved of their disasters through lawsuits.
[B] Injured customers could expect protection from the legal system.
[C] Companies would avoid being sued by providing new warnings.
[D] Juries tended to find fault with the compensations companies promised.
昨天句子的解析：
1. The defining term of intelligence in humans still seems to be the IQ score, even though IQ tests are not given as often as they used to be.
（人类智商依然是用IQ分数来定义的智商，即使智商测试不如之前用的那样频繁了。）
（所以对于智商的defining term没有发生改变，也就意味着你即使定位到第一句D选项也不对！何况不应该定位到第一句！好好看后面的解析！）
2.The test comes primarily in two forms: the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale and the Wechsler Intelligence Scales (both come in adult and children’s version).
3.Generally costing several hundred dollars, they are usually given only by psychologists, although variations of them populate bookstores and the World Wide Web.
4.Superhigh scores like vos Savant’s are no longer possible, because scoring is now based on a statistical population distribution among age peers, rather than simply dividing the mental age by the chronological age and multiplying by 100.
5.Other standardized tests, such as the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) and the Graduate Record Exam (GRE), capture the main aspects of IQ tests.
28. People nowadays can no longer achieve IQ scores as high as vos Savant’s because
[A] the scores are obtained through different computational procedures.
[B] creativity rather than analytical skills is emphasized now.
[C] vos Savant’s case is an extreme one that will not repeat.
[D] the defining characteristic of IQ tests has changed.
精确定位：
说了很多次的定位，但是大家还是会难免忘记，不然为什么考研需要这么长的时间准备呢？准备的过程就是把这种反应变为自然反应的过程。
题干问的非常明确：People nowadays can no longer achieve IQ scores as high as vos Savant’s because（现在人们再也没办法得到像vos Savant’s那样的高分了，原因是什么？）
那根据这句话就只能定位到第四句，你看其他句就属于定位错误！问哪里你就找哪里！
其他句子都没有提及原因，所以这句话是唯一的“线索句”，也就是“答案来源句”！
切分第四句：
Superhigh scores like vos Savant’s are no longer possible,
=People nowadays can no longer achieve IQ scores as high as vos Savant’s
后半句就是原因：
because scoring is now based on a statistical population distribution among age peers, rather than simply dividing the mental age by the chronological age and multiplying by 100.
来，给大家展示一下同义替换的过程：
简化这个句子：
Because scoring is now based on A rather than (on) B.
因为分数现在是基于A而不是基于B.
A= a statistical population distribution among age peers
B= simply dividing the mental age by the chronological age and multiplying by 100
因为rather than（而不是），所以A和B能看懂一个，就能反推另一个，
对大多数同学来讲，A是看不懂得。
B中能看的懂得是：dividing 除；multiplying 乘；
所以在也就是计算过程发生了改变：computational procedures
Rather than就表明了：Different
The scores are obtained… = scoring is now based on…
[A] the scores are obtained through different computational procedures.
所以A选项就是正确答案；其他选项都是定位错误！我多看一眼都不愿意！！！
想想我嫌弃的眼神！
