　　六級閱讀理解專項練習答案

　　1.[spend more money/use tomorrow's money/live now and pay later]

　　[定位]第2段第1、2句。

　　解析：題干中的lure是原文encouragement的同義表達，因此encouragement后的不定式為本題提供了答題依據。此外，第1句的live now pay later意思與之相近，也可為答案。

　　2.[live beyond their means/live now and pay later]

　　[定位]第2段末句。

　　解析：題干中的in the absence of credit cards對應原句的without credit cards，聯系前半句可知原句中do so指的是live beyond their means，即為答案。

　　3.[Being able to enjoy the free interest in certain period]

　　[定位]第3段最后兩句。

　　解析：第3段第2句首先提到了信用卡的兩個優點：no need to carry cash和being useful inemergencies。第3句在提到它收取高額利息后，用yet表轉折提出它的第三個優點：interest free credit,最后一句加以補充說明。

　　4.[What should be considered before you decide on a credit card]

　　[定位]第4段首句。

　　解析：根據主題句第1句及第2句中“It is necessary to consider...”所列舉的事項可以得出結論：該段主要講述選擇信用卡時要考慮的一些因素。

　　5.[his debt is the bank's profit]

　　[定位]末段第2句。

　　解析：題干中的if可對應原句的once，know對應realize，故realize后的賓語從句即為題干中賓語the truth的同位語從句。正確理解該賓語從句是解題關鍵，原句的someone else實指銀行，而銀行是信用卡持有人的債主，由此答案不難得出。
