fe. (关键词 full of years, normal, a long and full life说明这两个老妇人是正常,自然死亡的。请同学们注意形容词在语篇中的关键作用，经常表示作者对某个事物的观点或评价) Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence (吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon. （作者用自己的经历引出话题，注意用I开头的句子在六级考试中大多是在叙事。）
21. What is said about the two deceased elderly women?
[定位与替换] 本题针对两位已故的老妇人提问。根据关键词two deceased elderly women定位到原文第一段。 normal, a long and full life= a natural life，所以选A) They lived out a natural life. 它们活完了正常的寿命。
[干扰项分析] B) They died of exhaustion after the long plane ride. 她们都因为飞机长途旅行的劳累而过世； C) They weren't accustomed to the change in weather. 它们不习惯天气的变化；B),C)都是利用文章第二段最后一句话“That long airplane ride, the abrupt change of climate, was more than she could take”内容进行干扰 D) They died due to lack of care by family members. 她们都因为家人疏于照顾而过世，文章中没提到。
22. The author had to conduct the two women's funerals probably because ________.
[定位与替换] 本题问作者的可能身份。由题干定位到第一段。 题干中conduct（主持） 替换officiate。那么在西方主持葬礼的人的身份可能是什么呢？而且是必须（had to）去主持。根据as the Bible would say 推断,作者身份可能是牧师。 西方社会牧师的职责之一就是主持所属教区的葬礼所以选D) he was priest of the local church. 他是当地教会的牧师。 另外，第三段第二句Priests know that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty.也暗示了本题答案。这句话似乎显得突兀，似乎与本文前面涉及到的两位死者、家属和作者本人毫无关系，但请同学们记住一句话：存在就是合理的。阅读理解文章的中的每句话在文章中的存在都有其特定的功能，或观点，或细节，或举例，或承接上文等等，所以同学们在超精读分析任何文章的时候，对每个句子在文章中的地位，所起的作用等都要做到心中有数，如此做到庖丁解牛，对文章的理解能力必有提高！其实，同学们仔细想一下，文章中这句话正是作者从自己的职业的角度出发，对自己所经历的事情所作的评论。
[干扰项分析] A) he wanted to console the two families 他想安慰两个家庭，这个理由不充分，比较牵强。B) he was an official from the community 他是当地社区的官员。 这是本题最具有迷惑性的干扰项，很多同学选这个答案。实际上official 在这里构成了强烈的词形干扰，这是六级和考研阅读中一个非常重要，但是容易被忽视的一个干扰项特征。原文中officiate 虽然在词形上和 official相近，但意思截然不同。有趣的是，根据google 上搜索出来 的内容。About this author: He is Rabbi Laureate of Temple Israel in Natick, Massachusetts. 作者的身份确实是牧师，更确切地说是犹太教的拉比。C) he had great sympathy for the deceased 他很同情死者， 文章中也没提到这一点。三个干扰项文章中均没有充分证据支持。
At the first home, the son of the deceased (已故的) woman said to me, "If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It's my fault that she died." At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, "If only I hadn't insisted on my mother's going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the abrupt change of climate, was more than she could take. It'
