17.) Ninety per cent of all Pacific salmon were caught are sockeye or pink salmon.
原文:All five species of Pacific salmon -- chinook, or king; chum, or dog; coho, or silver; sockeye, or red; and pink, or humpack -- spawn in Alaskan waters, and 90% of all Pacific salmon commercially caught in North America are produced there.
题目当中的关键词 Ninety per cent/Pacific salmon/sockeye/pink salmon都是原文当中的原词,所以如果不理解句子的意思可能会错以为答案是TRUE。但是仔细分析下,原文是由“and”并列起来的复合句,前半句列举了Pacific salmon的五个品种,后半句说北美捕捉到的90%Pacific salmon都产自于阿拉斯加,但是具体这90%是什么品种原文并没有说明,所以答案是NOT GIVEN。
27.) In the first paragraph the writer makes the point that blind people
A. may be interested in studying art.

D. can draw accurately.
原文From a number of recent studies, it has become clear that blind people can appreciate the use of outlines and perpectives to describe the arrange-ment of objects and other objects in space.
vi ) Controlling pilots' licences
viii ) Setting rules to weather conditions
F ) The FAA then recognised two types of operating environments. In good meteorological conditions, flying would be permitted under Visual Flight Rules(VFR), which suggests a strong reliance on visual cues to maintain an acceptable level of safety. Poor visibility necessitated a set of Instrumental Flight Rules(IFR), under which the pilot relied on altitude and navigational information provided by the plane's instrument panel to fly safely.
On a clear day, a pilot in controlled airplace can choose a VFR or IFR flight plan, and the FAA regulations were divised in a way which accommodates both VFR and IFR operations in the same airspace. However, a pilot can only choose to fly IFR if they possess an instrument rating which is above and beyond the basic pilot's license that must also be held.
