To: Marketing Team
From: Javaris Kincaid, Director of Sales
Subject: Trends in social networking
The number of small social networking websites has more than doubled in the ______ two years. This trend is likely driven largely by users abandoning large mainstream social networking sites that burden users with unwanted updates as well as unsolicited and poorly targeted advertisements.
Smaller sites focus more narrowly on a topic, activity, or location. People interested in discussing old movies, bicycling, or what’s going on in their neighborhood are usually better served by ______ such niche sites, which also feature more targeted advertising.
Given this situation, why do we continue to dedicate our limited social marketing budget exclusively to large, general social networking sites? ______ my own research, this is not a wise investment. Let’s talk about this at the meeting tomorrow.

1.
【答案】D
【破題】
由問題句"The number of small social networking websites has more than doubled in the two years."，我們可以判斷此題要考的是，根據語意，這句話的時間點是過去、現在還是未來？
【解析】
選項(A) in the past two years為正確答案，因為"... has ... doubled ..."為現在完成式，故可判斷此處所講述的是由「過去」累積到現在的網站數量。
選項(B) in the current two years，在英文裡沒有這個說法，不可選。
選項(C) in the next two years指「在接下來的兩年內」，但是全句所談論的是「過去」所增加的網站數量，而不是「預測」未來網站會增加的數量，故不選。
選項(D) in the future two years，除了「時間」不符外，英文也沒有這種說法。
2.
【答案】B
【破題】
本題考點為by介系詞後面應接的動詞形式。
【解析】
看到"by"介系詞，就能馬上判斷其後需接受詞，而受詞需為名詞或V-ing，故本題選(B)。像這種由空格前後的字即可判斷答案的題目，便不需再花時間解讀一整句的意思。
3.
【答案】B
【破題】
看到空格後面的"my own research"以及之後的結論"this is not a wise investment"可得知作者在講述「根據」他的研究所得知的事實，因此答案應選符合此語意的用字或片語。
【解析】
選項(A) Instead of「代替（我的研究）」，語意錯誤。
選項(B) According to「根據（我的研究）」為最佳答案。
選項(C) Apart from「除了（我的研究）之外」，語意錯誤。
選項(D) Along with「伴隨（我的研究）」，語意錯誤。
