　　3月2日换库后，小编为大家整理这个月的GMAT阅读机经，这篇GMAT阅读机经是关于高地的人的文章，考生朋友可以看看，下面的内容为考古内容，分享给大家，希望对大家有所帮助，文中观点仅供参考。

　　[V1]

　　好長的一篇，記得不怎麼清楚，關於很久之前indian?還是哪裡山上的部落什麼的，講他們的crops practice，有沒有trade什麼的。。不怎麼記得了。。

　　[V2]

　　阅读还有一篇比较模糊 说什么还把9ooo米以上的一个民族 他们的粮食作物 分布不均匀 全部是在3000米以下的 然后具体又扯到热带 以及如何解决这个难题的

　　考古已确认 GWD原题

　　**提醒大家：考试遇到不要急着秒选!!注意变体!!!**

　　4.美国高地的人(已考证原文)

　　第一段：美国有个高地的人过着是自给自足的生活，但是很多东西在highland不能种，然后在某个时期有种network(问关于network可以infer什么)可以帮助物品交换，但是对高地的来说没什么用。

　　第二段：高地的人是采用的vertical economy，到现在都还在用就是几千海拔种土豆，几千海拔放牧，几千海拔干嘛(高亮问说这个干嘛)，这种模式有两种：一种是什么，介绍了一下;一种是什么，介绍了一下。最后一句说两者不同(有题)

　　【已考证，确实为原文】

　　By the sixteenth century, the Incas 16世纪时，南美印加人统治着沿着太

　　--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

　　GWD-9-Q4:

　　According to the passage, which of the following is true about the preindustrial long distance trade networks mentioned in line 22 ? 选B

　　A. They were not used extensively in most of the preindustrial world.反

　　B. They were used to some extent by the people of the Andean highlands.

　　In most of the preindustrial world, the problem of different resource distribution was resolved by long-distance trade networks over which the end consumer exercised little control.

　　C. They were not an fective means of solving the problem of different resource distribution.

　　D. They necessitated the establishment of permanent satellite communities in widely dispersed locations.

　　E. They were usul only for the transportation of products from warm climatic zones.

　　--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

　　GWD-9-Q5:

　　According to the passage, the inhabitants of the Andean highlands resolved the problem of unequal resource distribution primarily in which of the following ways? 选A

　　A. Following self-sufficient agricultural practices

　　B. Increasing commodity production from the ecological zones in the highland basins

　　C. Increasing their reliance on long-distance trade networks

　　D. Establishing satellite communities throughout the Andean highlands

　　E. Establishing production forces in ecological zones beyond their parent communities

　　--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

　　GWD-9-Q6:

　　The passage suggests that as a way of addressing the problem of different resource distribution in the preindustrial world, the practice of vertical economy differed from the use of long-distance trade networks in that vertical economy allowed 选C

　　A. commodities to reach the end consumer faster

　　B. a wide variety of agricultural goods to reach the end consumer

　　C. a single group to maintain control over the production process

　　D. greater access to commodities from lower, warmer climatic zones

　　E. greater use of self-sufficient agricultural techniques

　　This strategy of direct access to a maximum number of ecological zones by a single group is called vertical economy.

　　Given this unequal resource distribution, highland Incas needed access to the products of lower, warmer climatic zones in order to enlarge the variety and quantity of their foodstuffs. In most of the preindustrial world, the problem of different resource distribution was resolved by long-distance trade networks over which the end consumer exercised little control. Although the peoples of the Andean highlands participated in such networks, they relied primarily on the maintenance of autonomous production forces in as many ecological zones as possible. The commodities produced in these zones were extracted, processed, and transported entirely by members of a single group.

　　--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

　　GWD-9-Q7:

　　The passage suggests that for an Andean highland village attempting to resolve the problem of unequal resource distribution, the strategy known as compressed verticality would probably be inappropriate for which of the following situations? 选D

　　A. The village’s location is such that it is difficult for the village to participate in long-distance trade networks.

　　B. The village does not have the resources to establish permanent satellite communities in production zones beyond the home community.

　　C. The warm-land crop regions nearest to the village are all below 6,000 feet.

　　D. The location of the village does not provide ready access to an adequate variety of ecological zones.

　　E. The nearest crop production zones are located below the village, while the nearest pasturelands are located above the village.

　　The first is “compressed verticality,” in which a single village resides in a location that permits easy access to closely located ecological zones.
