2013年12月13日SAT真题类型：Critical Reading > Sentence Completions  完成句子

　　Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

　　He maintains that ethnic and cultural ------- are generalizations no more related to what an individual is actually like than are the ------- representations of constellations to the actual nature of a star.

　　(A) traditions . . chemical

　　(B) stereotypes . . pictorial

　　(C) details . . figurative

　　(D) heritages . . prophetic

　　(E) specimens . . graphic

2013年12月13日SAT考试官方每日一题答案：B

解析：The terms in choice (B) logically complete the sentence’s comparison between ethnic and cultural “generalizations” and certain “representations of constellations.” “Stereotypes” are oversimplified generalizations that do not necessarily describe what a particular person is actually like—just as “pictorial,” or picture-based, representations of constellations cannot accurately describe a star’s “actual nature.”

　　为大家提供与12月13日SAT真题同类题型的一道题目，供各位考生练习：

　　The salmon's extraordinary ability to smell a single drop of its home river in almost two million gallons of seawater is only one of the fish's many ------- skills.

　　(A) sinuous

　　(B) encumbered

　　(C) colossal

　　(D) prodigious

　　(E) furtive

解析：The sentence focuses on an ability that is "extraordinary," or very remarkable. It makes sense to suggest that this remarkable ability is just one of the salmon's "many prodigious skills," or only one of the salmon's many remarkable and impressive skills.
