46. A it is unfair to those climate-venerable nations.
細節題，題目定位詞除了Paris climate agreement之外還有一個重點定位詞critical，問作者為什麼對此協議是批判態度，在文中並不是很明確找到。第一段交代這項協議的具體時間內容等，第二段才談到作者的批判態度。即we reveal just how deep this injustice runs,作者認為這是不公的，this injustice指代前兩句，遭遇氣候傷害的國家(少數4%國家)卻承擔一大半全球溫室氣體排放的責任，這是不公的`。injustice=unfair
47.C They hardly pay anything for the problem they have caused
細節題。定位詞“free-riders”，這個詞在第三段，冒號後解釋說，通過大量溫室氣體排造成嚴重問題，同時卻不用承擔氣候變化的代價。In other words後面的句子也在解釋同一件事情。原文出現cost和problem 在正確答案中以pay和problem復現。
48.C They have to bear consequences they are not responsible for
細節題，定位詞“forced-riders”和second-hand smokers，定位在第四段，who are suffering from climate impacts despite having scarcely contributed to the problem.這些forced-riders沒有助長全球變暖這個問題但卻要承擔氣候問題的不良後果。答案為近義詞替換：bear consequences=suffer from impacts，be not responsible for=scarcely contribute to
49.B There is no final agreement on where it will come from
細節題，定位詞“100 billion”，定位到第7段，該段出現核心考點“however”，說明整個段落對這筆資金的使用是轉折後的評價，即負評價。答案應該選擇B或C兩個包含負評價的詞之一(均出現no)。其中B There is no final agreement on where it will come from是對應轉折後面的兩個不足中的第二個不足，即對There is also very little detail on who will provide the funds or importantly who is responsible for their provision的同義改寫，即協議中對誰提供資金及誰承擔募集資金的責任沒有做明確說明，探討資金來源而非資金花費的方式。
50. D putting in effect the policies in the agreement at once
細節題，定位詞urgent action 對應第8段(倒數第二段)，there must urgently be a meaningful mobilization of the policies outlined in the agreement即動用協定中擬定的政策，近義詞替換put in effect(生效)=mobilization(動用)，及原詞復現。
passage 2
51.C Teenagers’ mental problems are often too conspicuous not to be observed.
句子理解題。考查句子意思與上下文相同或相反，此處上下文無轉折詞，應讀下一句話：Their risky behaviors can alert parents and teachers that serious problems are brewing.其意思是青少年的一些危險舉動—喝酒吸毒等—能警告父母老師大事不妙了。對應答案青少年的心理問題是非常顯而易見得觀察到的。serious problems指心理問題，conspicuous behaviors指破折號中的危險舉動的概括改寫。
52. D Many hitherto unobserved youngsters may have psychological problems
細節題。對應第二段轉折but a new study：有一些青少年(睡眠不足不愛活動等行為)可能會有著同樣的得精神疾病(psychiatric symptoms)的危險，正確答案對此處是概括型改寫，那些行為對應著unobserved youngsters，也與上文的易觀察的行為有著轉折關係，psychological problems對應psychiatric symptoms。
53. B Their behaviors do not constitute a warning signal.
細節題，定位詞invisible risk,對應第三段，直接給出原因句：because their behaviors are not usually seen as a red flag. 同義替換warning signal=red flag
54.A They are almost as liable to depression as the high-risk group
細節題，順序原則+定位詞invisible group，至定位句but the invisible group wasn’t far behind the high-risk set,with more than 13%of them exhibiting depression. 定位即答案，兩句話均表示，這一群體和高危青少年群體在表現抑鬱症的比例上幾乎不相上下。
55. B it provides new early-warning signals for identifying teens in trouble.
細節題，Carli和significance 對應最後一段it provides new early-warning signs for parents teachers and mental healthcare providers.
