BSu
85、pportive.CDoubtful. DNegative.解析：选D观点态度题。根据最后一段的“But invading (蜂拥而入) someone elses party and wasting police time and money is not the answer.”可知，Georgie的妈妈认为“脸书共和军”闯入别人的聚会的行为是在浪费警方的时间和金钱，是不可取的。由此可知，她对“脸书共和军”持否定的态度。故选D。tips 利用but/however巧解阅读理解题通过研究近几年高考阅读理解试题，我们不难发现but和however的重现率较高，几乎每年高考阅读理解都有一些题目的
86、答案与这两个词有关，故应高度重视这两个词，特别是其后的内容。表示转折的but和however有很强的意义强调功能，对我们判断上下文文意、推断作者态度、猜测人物心理、理清文章层次都具有举足轻重的作用。but和however在文中通常有以下几种作用：引出作者的观点，反驳but前面的观点(普遍观点)；通过对比引出相反或相对的信息；表明作者的态度或提出作者的建议。例如上文C篇阅读中第11小题，本题为观点态度题。定位文章最后一段的“But invading (蜂拥而入) someone elses party and wasting police time and money is not the answer.”，由but后的内容可知，Georgie的妈妈认为“脸书共和军”闯入别人的聚会的行为是在浪费警方的时间和金钱，是不可取的。即她对“脸书共和军”持否定的态度。
