Life for the descendants of the Thule people is still harsh. Nunavut is 1.9 million square kilometers of rock and ice, and a handful of islands around the North Pole. Its currently home to 2500 people, all but a handful of them indigenous Inuit. Over the past 40 years, most have abandoned their nomadic ways and settled in the territorys 28 isolated communities, but they still rely heavily on nature to provide food and clothing. Provisions available in local shops have to be flown into Nunavut on one of the most costly air networks in the world, or brought by supply ship during the few ice-free weeks of summer. It would cost a family around 7,000 pounds a year to replace meat they obtained themselves through hunting with imported meat. Economic opportunities are scarce, and for many people state benefits are their only income.
让我们一句句看。首句主题是当地人的生活,趋势是艰苦的;接下来几句主题是当地人以及周边的地理。从provisions一句起至段末,文章一直在谈给养和粮食的问题。读完段落,再看选项。我们发现只有iii Alternative sources of essential supplies一项可能性最大,因为其中的essential supplies和段落最后一部分关于给养的主题吻合。验证一下,看alternative能否在文中找到替换。就从provisions开始往下找,发现replace和alternative在上下文中表达的是一个意思,于是锁定答案。
