问题 In the opening paragraph, the author introduces his topic by ______.
Which of the following is true of the text?

选项 A、Location-based services are popular in many fields.
B、Europcar offers hand-held GPS receivers
C、CityShow offers a service similar to IntelliTours.
D、Xplorer can warn drivers when they offend.

答案D

解析 第二段第二句:IntelliTours,a GPS tourism firm which began offering a similar service over a year ago;第三段:Other firms,such as CityShow...,offer hand-held GPS receivers that play audio clips for listening to while walking or driving...,Europcar,a car-rental firm,offers a device called the Xplorer...,it can also warn drivers if they exceed the local speed limit.本题是一个无法用关键词进行定位的细节题,要求考生判断选项是否符合原文,其难度在于考生需阅读每个选项及其所对应的原文,然后做出判断,这无形中增加了阅读量。文章第四段结尾谈到Xplorer can also warn drivers if they exceed the local speed limit,D中的offend就是对exceed the local speed limit的同义转换,因此正确。文章第二段第二句提到"IntelliTours公司在一年前提供的服务与Tour Coupes公司提供的服务很相似",而不是第三段提到的CityShow公司,因此C错误。同样,CityShow公司提供了游客在步行或开车时可收听到声频剪辑的便携式GPS接收器,而非Europcar汽车租赁公司,因此B也错误。这两道题的错误都属于搭配错误,由于本文举例太多,所以考生容易记混各个公司的产品和行为。根据第四段第四句的but这个转折提示可知定位服务还未广泛使用,因此A选项错误。本选项考查的其实是对take off的理解。本词有9个常用含义,在考试中经常出现,需熟记。
