36.E 上下文语境.根据前句it's likely that the cashiers in some stores will ask if you want to apply for a store credit card可知,收银员会询问你是否申请超市信用卡,but if you get too many of them,it will degrade your credit.但是如果太多就会减低你的信用,所以接下来是给我们的一些建议,故选E.
37.B上下文语境.根据后句the average credit card interest rate is about 15percent可知,信用卡利息是15%,说的是利息方面,故选B.
38.D上下文语境.根据最后一句Therefore,don't apply for a credit card at every place.因此,不要到处都去申请信用卡,建议我们短时间内申请太多信用卡使我们有风险,故选D.
39.G上下文语境.从后句Most store credit cards aren't as widely accepted at retailers compared to regular cards and usually have lower limits.可知,大部分商店的信用卡不是普遍被认可,故选G.

点评 七选五题型看似简单,实际上有时完全作对并不容易,需要方法和分析能力及足够的耐力,有必要进行专门练习.首先,快速浏览一遍七个备选答案,先确定哪个选项适合放在文章的什么位置.其次,快速浏览文章,确定文章体裁,抓住文章结构,分析篇章结构,找出各段的主题句或主旨大意.其三,注意各选项中出现的句子衔接手段,寻找句中衔接标志词,七选五备选答案中有两个多余的选项,会对文章中两个空的选择构成干扰,这时要特别细致地比对相似选项.最后,用代入法,检查答案是否合理,将所有选择答案放回空白处,通读全文,检查文章内容是否语义连贯合理、紧扣主题,语篇结构是否通顺连贯、具有一致性、合乎逻辑,写作思路是否清晰明了,格式以及用语是否恰当贴切,从而判断选择的答案是否正确.
