一天课+三小时直播！
过去四个晚上讲的3+2+3+3=11篇文章每一篇都是经典。
每一篇都是无死角。
我知道我还能做的更好。
但是就当下而言，我已经做到最好！
我也希望你尽力去做，
等到结束的时候你可以说，这是我能做的最好!
说实话，直播确实很累，一个人在直播间，
要保持效率，不能走神，不能互动，
但是很庆幸自己过来了，而且越讲越嗨，完全的投入。
以至于都有人来说老师你能不能内敛一点。
他真的不知道这种喝了四瓶红牛又全情投入后的激动。
生活就是这样：
不见得谁比别人更坚强些
只不过有的人沉默得比别人更彻底些
不见得谁比谁比更痛苦些
只不过有的人表达得更明白些
毕竟：“不如意事常八九 可与人语无二三”
用毕淑敏的话讲：
“优等的心，不必华丽，但必须坚固。”
今天的题目：
Supporters of the new super systems argue that these mergers will allow for substantial cost reductions and better coordinated service. Any threat of monopoly, they argue, is removed by fierce competition from trucks. But many shippers complain that for heavy bulk commodities traveling long distances, such as coal, chemicals, and grain, trucking is too costly and the railroads therefore have them by the throat.
思考题：
According to those who support mergers, railway monopoly is unlikely because ________.
[A] cost reduction is based on competition
[B] services call for cross-trade coordination
[C] outside competitors will continue to exist
[D] shippers will have the railway by the throat
词汇突破：
1.have somebody
今天题目的解析：
1.Supporters of the new super systems argue that these mergers will allow for substantial cost reductions and better coordinated service.
新的超级系统的支持者认为这些合并将会带来（allow for）大幅的费用降低和更好的协调服务
2.Any threat of monopoly, they argue, is removed by fierce competition from
trucks.
他们认为任何由垄断所带来的威胁都被来自卡车的竞争给消除了。
3.But many shippers complain that for heavy bulk commodities traveling long distances, such as coal, chemicals, and grain, trucking is too costly and the railroads therefore have them by the throat.
但是很多货主却抱怨道对于需要长途运输的大宗商品，比如煤炭，化学品和粮食；有卡车运输就太贵了。这样一来铁路就卡住了他们的脖子。（这里是个比喻，表示这些货主受制于铁路行业）
According to those who support mergers, railway monopoly is unlikely because ________.
那些支持合并的人认为，铁路行业的垄断是不可能的，因为_______.
精确定位只能到第二句！第一句虽然也是支持合并的人的观点，但是没有谈到垄断啊！所以
[A] cost reduction is based on competition
（费用的降低是基于竞争的）
[B] services call for cross-trade coordination
（服务需要跨行业的协调）
A和B我真的不会选！
对D选项我更是要呵呵了！
[D] shippers will have the railway by the throat
（货主将会卡住铁路的脖子）
且不说谁卡谁的脖子，定位就错了啊！问的是支持者的观点，第三句是货主的观点！
我肯定不会选！
但是我也知道大家在考场上还做不到第一步就能排除ABD，
那我就只希望你们在最后选择的时候问一问自己：我有没有精确定位！我有没有尊重题干！
[C] outside competitors will continue to exist
直接对应第二句：competition from trucks= outside competitors
来积累个AB吧：
A句：Any threat of monopoly, they argue, is removed by fierce competition from trucks.
B句：According to those who support mergers, railway monopoly is unlikely because outside competitors will continue to exist
明天的句子：
Tech nostalgia is an increasingly pronounced conceit, with the past swiftly turned into a commodity: obscure Nintendo 64 video games sell for big money, and dedicated YouTube channels allow fans to reminisce about 1990s hardware.
思考题：
The old tech commodity gains new value owing to the sense of nostalgia.
