问题 Which of the following index represents small-company stocks?
  
An index is a statistical composite representing the value of all stocks in a certain market segment. It’s presented as one simple number so investors can track trends in that segment. The broader the index, the more representative it is of the entire stock market. The Dow Jones Industrial is an average of 30 of the most widely held stocks. The S&P 500 Index combines the prices of 500 widely held stocks chosen by Standard and Poor’s. The Russell 2000 includes 2000 small-company stocks; the Wilshire 5000 includes both small-and large-company stocks and is weighted to represent all U.S.-headquartered securities.
Meditation is being recommended by more and more physicians as a way to prevent, slow or at least control the pain of chronic diseases like heart conditions, AIDS, cancer, and infertility. It is also being used to restore balance in the face of such psychiatric disturbances as depression, hyperactivity, and attention-deficit disorder (ADD). In a confluence of Eastern mysticism and western science, doctors are embracing meditation not because they think it’s hip or cool but because scientific studies are beginning to show that it works, particularly for stress-related conditions.

选项 A、It relieves the pain of cancer.
B、It counteracts the effect of depression.
C、It has mystic elements.
D、It has long been used as a cure-all.

答案D

解析 1) 找到类属于主题的关键词有助于迅速排除选项,如可将文中有关的关键词cancer,depression和mysticism一一与选项对照;2) 同义词替换,可帮助判断选项的说法是否正确,如原文中control the pain与选项中relieve同义;restore balance与counteract同义。
