网考网解析：
[听力原文] Mass transportation revised the social and economic fabric of the American city in three fundamental ways. It catalyzed physical expansion, it sorted out people and land uses, and it accelerated the inherent instability of urban life. [分析] 语义的判断理解。 根据原文可知，mass transportation从三方面影响了美国人民的生活：1) it catalyzed physical expansion(使面积迅速扩展)，可与选项a对应，2) it sorted out people and land use(将土地使用分类)，可与选项b对应，3) it accelerated the inherent instability of urban life(加速城市生活中内在的不稳定性)，可与选项c对应，由此可见，只有选项d在原文中没有对应关系，因此，该项是正确答案。 [解题关键] 掌握原文关键词语的正确解释，尤其注意抽象短语的具体化，如原文提到的受到影响的三种方式都使用了抽象的表达，而选项a、b、c均分别是它们的具体解释。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
