Excerpt from the passage, which is about the environment:
Secondly, environmental groups need to be noticed by the mass media. They also need to keep the money rolling in. Understandably, perhaps, they sometimes overstate their arguments. In 1997, for example, the Worldwide Fund for Nature issued a press release entitled: ’Two thirds of the world’s forests lost forever’. The truth turns out to be nearer 20%.
Though these groups are run overwhelmingly by selfless folk, they nevertheless share many of the characteristics of other lobby groups. That would matter less if people applied the same degree of scepticism to environmental lobbying as they do to lobby groups in other fields. A trade organisation arguing for, say, weaker pollution controls is instantly seen as self-interested. Yet a green organisation opposing such a weakening is seen as altruistic, even if an impartial view of the controls in question might suggest they are doing more harm than good.
Choose the correct letter, A, B, C or D.
1) The writer quotes from the Worldwide Fund for Nature to illustrate how
A influential the mass media can be.
B effective environmental groups can be.
C the mass media can help groups raise funds.
D environmental groups can exaggerate their claims.
2) What is the writer’s main point about lobby groups?
A Some are more active than others.
B Some are better organised than others.
C Some receive more criticism than others.
D Some support more important issues than others.
这类题型的解题技巧
阅读题干，划出定位词，帮助我们定位题目所在原文的位置，然后，阅读选项，划出核心词，帮助我们记忆核心意思，在寻找正确答案之前，一定要事先通读选项，因为选项提供了对原文正确或者是错误的同义转换
但是由于选项较长，不可能一次性全部记住，所以有必要把选项里的核心词划出来，这样可以减轻记忆负担，并且更加有针对性地做题。其实在做选择题的过程中，我们最好用的方法就是排除法，当然，排除的方法我们可以从出题者角度出发，发现干扰项，当然我们必须要了解干扰项的设置特点，这样才可以准确的排除它们，如果题目中出现的个别单词与原文中的用词一模一样，尤其是一些经常被同义替换掉的动词、形容词等，这个选项往往就是干扰选项。
答案解析：1 D = can exaggerate their claims = overstate their arguments.
