例4：Tristan da Cunha, a 38-square-mile island, is the farthest inhabited island in the world, according to the Guinness Book of Records. It is 1,510miles southwest of its nearest neighbor, St. Helena, and 1,950miles west of Africa. Discovered by the Portuguese admiral（葡萄牙海军上将）of the same name in 1506, and settled in 1810, the island belongs to Great Britain and has a population of a few hundred.
Coming in a close second - and often wrongly mentioned as the most distant land － is Easter Island, which lies 1,260 miles east of its nearest neighbor, Pitcairn Island, and 2,300 miles west of South America.
The mountainous 64-square-mile island was settled around the 5th century, supposedly by people who were lost at sea. They had no connection with the outside world for more than a thousand years, giving them plenty of time to build more than 1,000 huge stone figures, called moai, for which the island is most famous.
On Easter Sunday, 1772, however, settlers from Holland moved in and gave the island its name. Today, 2,000 people live on the Chilean territory （智利领土）. They share on street, a small airport, and a few hours of television per day.（2003年全国）
④It can be learned from the text that the island of Tristan da Cunha _____________.
A．was named after its discoverer B．got its name from Holland settlers
C．was named by the British government D．got its name from the Guinness Book of Records
[分析]本篇选材涉及地理，为我们介绍了两座最为偏远的小岛(farthest／most distant inhabited islands)，一为吉尼斯大全(Guinness Book of Records)所认定的Tristan da Cunha；另一为复活岛(Easter lsland)．文中出现了比较多的专有名词．
本题问及Tristan da Cunha小岛的命名．如能通过浏览把握本文篇章结构，则可看出，关于该岛的内容都在第1段：运用寻读(SCANNING)技巧可以找到与本题相关的线索(关键词name)出现在该段结尾句里，通读全句可以得出答案：Discovered by the Portuguese admiral of the same name (as the island)．．．，与选项A一致．[答案] A
⑤Which of the following is most famous for moai?
A．Tristan da Cunha. B．Pitcairn Island.． C. Easter Island. D．St. Helena.
[分析]本题涉及关于moai( = stone figures)的一个细节问题：其所在地．4个选项均为岛名，因此不能依此线索查找．要按题干中所问，从第3段里找到moai所在的岛；但这里仅提到the island，循此线索往上追寻：(3段结尾)the island = (3段开头)the mountainous 64-squaremile sland = (2段中)Easter lsland，即为答案．[答案] C
⑥Which country does Easter Island belong to?
A．Britain. B．Holland. C．Portugal. D．Chile.
[分析]本题考查复活岛今日的归属问题．题干提问中使用的现在时态也是不容忽视的．问的是现在情况，不是过去．第4段中间提到Today，．．．Chilean territory，与答案D吻合．(责任编辑：www.360gaokao.com)
