　　1. These two detectives are as jealous as a pair of professional models.

　　2. Like his father President Bush is a republican.

　　3. Scribner and Cole regard classroom learning as parallel to learning in daily life.

　　对比_______比较不同点，信号词有more than, unlike, on the other hand, in contrast with 等。

　　2. Unlike the minerals and oil used to make plastics and metals, trees are replaceable.

　　3. In contrast with your belief that we will fail, I am confident we will succeed.

　　另外，还可通过时间或地点的差异造成强对比。

　　分析 两个时间副词体现出大马哈鱼现在和过去产卵情况大相径庭(时间对比)。如果这里有判断题The number of salmon in the Colombia river system has dropped dramatically.答案应选那一个?(True/False/Not Given)

　　2. Those Aborigines living in the dry inland areas were largely dependent for their vegetable foods on seed such as those of grasses, acacias and eucalypts.

Tribes on the coast, and particularly in the vicinity of coastal rainforests, had a more varied vegetable diet with a higher proportion of fruits and tubers.

　　分析 既然内陆(dry inland area)土著人的蔬菜主要由植物种子构成，那么与之构成地点强烈对比的海岸地区(coast)土著人的蔬菜品种肯定不止于此。接下来的精读不过是求证的过程。

　　1. As a general rule, international students should expect to spend at 1east as much on monthly living expenses during the summer as they do during the academic year.
