根據對歷年真題的總結分析,雅思閱讀考試的一個重要規律是:題干中的句子之間,詞語之間的邏輯關系在原文中一般不變(但表現方式可能會變)。這一規律使得邏輯關系詞可以有效地協助題干關鍵詞在原文中定位答案信息源。尤其在摘要題(Summary)中這一方法使用頻率很高。
例如:
1.劍5 / P50 / Q30-31
題干:In Britain, moreover, scientists worried that English had neither the technical vocabulary nor the grammatical resources to express their ideas。
原文:First, it lacked the necessary technical vocabulary. Second, it lacked the grammatical resources required to represent the world … (Para.7)
題干中出現的neither…nor…是連接兩個否定概念的并列邏輯關系詞。原文中對應出現了完全相同的邏輯關系,即first, it lacked …, second it lacked …(表現方式有所變化)。我們可根據這種對應的邏輯關系在原文中快速定位答案信息源。
2.劍5 / P50 / Q33-34
題干:Although English was then overtaken by German, it developed again in the 19th century as a direct result of the industrial revolution。
原文:In the following century much of this momentum was lost as German established itself as the leading European language of science. … However, in the 19th century scientific English again enjoyed substantial lexical growth as the industrial revolution created the need for new technical vocabulary。
題干中出現的兩種邏輯關系均在原文中對應出現。一是表示轉折關系的although, 對應于原文中的however;二是表示因果關系的as a direct result of 對應于原文中表因果的邏輯關系詞as。很顯然,這對于題干信息的定位意義重大。
3.劍5 / P70 / Q25-26
題干:To deal with this, Stanley suggests the use of artificial floods in the short term, and increasing the amount of water available through desalination in the longer term。
原文:In the immediate future, Stanley believes that one solution would be to make artificial floods to flush out the delta waterways, in the same way that natural floods did before the construction of the dams. He says, however, that in the long term an alternative process such as desalination may have to be used to increase the amount of water available。
題干中出現了表示遞進的邏輯關系詞in the short term … in the longer term …。快速查讀原文,可定位于文中相同的邏輯結構in the immediate future … in the long term …。
另外,對雅思真題文章進行精讀訓練的同學會發現,除了以上兩大功能之外,邏輯關系詞在原文中的位置還常常是命題考點最集中的地方。因此學習和掌握邏輯關系詞在閱讀中的功能和作用,將對提高答題的速度起關鍵性的作用。同時,能夠熟練運用邏輯關系詞對于寫出條理清楚,層次分明的雅思作文也大有幫助。
以上就是小編為大家整理的雅思閱讀考試中怎樣定位信息,非常實用。最后,小編預祝大家在雅思考試中取得好成績!
