Q7
The counter-excavation method completely replaced the qanat method in the 6th century BCE.
分析
题干中可以划定位词的有counter-excavation method，qanat method和in the 6th century BCE。这道题考察绝 对词考点，即前者有没有completely replaced后者。
定位
3 By the 6th century BCE, a second method of tunnel construction appeared called the counter- excavation method, in which the tunnel was constructed from both ends. It was used to cut through high mountains when the qanat method was not a practical alternative. This method required greater planning and advanced knowledge of surveying, mathematics and geometry as both ends of a tunnel had to meet correctly at the center of the mountain.
答案
上文第 一句出现了by the 6th century BCE对应题干中的in the 6th century BCE。上文第二句中出现了qanat method。但这句中的it was used...when qanat method was not practical【暗渠方法行不通的时候才会用这个方法】与题干中的completely replaced【完全取代了】是冲突的。completely replaced对应的内容应该是没有qanat method，但这里的when qanat method was not practical意味着，这个方法并没有消失，行得通的前提下，还是会用qanat method，所以答案是FALSE。
Q8
Only experienced builders were employed to construct a tunnel using the counter-excavation method.
分析
题干中可以划定位词的有experienced builders和tunnel。这道题考察绝 对词考点，也就是builders是不是全都是experienced builders。
定位
3...This method required greater planning and advanced knowledge of surveying, mathematics and geometry as both ends of a tunnel had to meet correctly at the center of the mountain. Adjustments to the direction of the tunnel also had to be made whenever builders encountered geological problems or when it deviated from its set path. They constantly checked the tunnel’s advancing direction, for example, by looking back at the light that penetrated through the tunnel mouth, and made corrections whenever necessary.
答案
上文第二句出现了builders， 上文第 一句出现了this method required greater planning and advanced knowledge of surveying, mathematics and geometry对应题干中的experienced, 但这个修饰词根builders没有出现在一句，也没有确定的线索联系它们，而且这两句都没有出现关于experienced builders的数量或占比的词根only 对应，所以答案是NOT GIVEN。
Q9
The information about a problem that occurred during the construction of the Saldae aqueduct system was found in an ancient book.
分析
题干中可以划定位词的有information，Saldae aqueduct system和ancient book，原文中可能会出现这个ancient book的名称。这道题考察是非考点，即information是否在ancient book里边被发现。
定位
3...Large deviations could happen, and they could result in one end of the tunnel not being usable. An inscription written on the side of a 428-meter tunnel, built by the Romans as part of the Saldae aqueduct system in modern-day Algeria, describes how the two teams of builders missed each other in the mountain and how the later construction of a lateral link between both corridors corrected the initial error.
答案
上文第二句出现了Saldae aqueduct system ，这句中的an inscription written on the side of a 428-meter tunnel，就算你不认识这个短语中的inscription【刻印】，你也能看出来它是卸载tunnel边上的文字，所以不可能是an ancient book，所以原文与题干的意思是矛盾的。上文第二句中的describes how the two teams of builders missedeach other in the mountain对应题干中的a problem that occurred during the construction，所以除了一处矛盾，别的信息都是对应的，答案是FALSE。
Q10
The mistake made by the builders of the Saldae aqueduct system was that the two parts of the tunnel failed to meet.
分析
题干中可以划定位词的有mistake和two parts of the tunnel。这道题考察是非考点，即是否failed to meet。
定位
3...An inscription written on the side of a 428-meter tunnel, built by the Romans as part of the Saldae aqueduct system in modern-day Algeria, describes how the two teams of builders missed each other in the mountain and how the later construction of a lateral link between both corridors corrected the initial error.
答案
上文前半句出现了Saldae aqueduct system，后半句的he two teams of builders missed each other in the mountain对应题干中的two parts of the tunnel failed to meet， 后半句中的initial error对应题干中的mistake，题干与原文的内容保持一致，所以答案是TRUE。
