(7) 合乎語法、拼寫、標(biāo)點(diǎn)規(guī)則 在作答時(shí)要使句子合乎語法規(guī)則,注意單詞的拼寫、 開頭字母的大寫以及標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào)等。圈定所要答題的具體細(xì)節(jié),是撥開迷霧的唯一方法。例如第 5 題,文章最后一段第一句和第二句是這樣的: Almost 40 years ago, when Lyndon Johnson declared war on poverty, a family with a car and a house in the suburbs felt prosperous. Today that same family may Well feel poor, overwhelmed by creditcard debt? 這是一個(gè)對(duì)比句,以前感覺比較富裕,而現(xiàn)在則覺得窮。還有第 3 題也是屬于這類。re not important or intelligent enough to deserve more. But lowskilled workers today are better educated than ever before, and they constitute the linchpin (關(guān)鍵 ) of American industry. When politicians crow (得意洋 洋的說 ) that happy days are here again because jobs are on the rise, it39。 簡(jiǎn)答題考察的是考生對(duì)文章整體的理解以及表達(dá)能力。反義詞主要考核我們對(duì)文章結(jié)構(gòu)的理解、語境的把握 (包括作者的態(tài)度等 );近義詞主要看我們對(duì)詞匯的具體掌握情況 (包括搭配,是否能加不定式、接什么介詞等 );不同時(shí)態(tài)的詞則是考查對(duì)全文的整體掌握及對(duì)上下文邏輯關(guān)系的理解 (根據(jù)樣題,此題對(duì)考生不做選項(xiàng)改寫要求,所以我們可以根據(jù)上下文時(shí)態(tài)對(duì)應(yīng)的原則考慮,同時(shí)也給自己進(jìn)一步縮小選擇范圍 )。這樣可以快速有效的完成此題。根據(jù)上下 文可知,“在曾經(jīng)是沼澤地的地方,建了很多住房開發(fā)項(xiàng)目。此空也必須根據(jù)第三段的大意做出選擇。此空之后的兩句話就證明了此句的觀點(diǎn):非常容易理解?!巴ㄟ^快速的蒸發(fā),水??在空中 。 如以下練習(xí): Nature has a perfect system for recycling water. Water is used again and again. It falls as rain. Then it goes to one of three places. It might seep___1__through the soil as it soaks through into the natural reservoirs underground. It might____2___into the air by evaporating quickly. It might run off into streams to rivers and to the oceans. There is a problem with this recycling system. It is a balance that can be easily upset by people. Nature’s__3__system can work well only if people work with the systemnot against it. Some ways that people interfere with nature are___4___to understand. Dirty sewage water from homes and factories must not___5___with drinking water. People would get____6__from drinking dirty water. There are other ways that people___7___ nature. Some of these ways are not SO easy to understand. For example, a marshy bog may not be good for everything, but it serves an important purpose. The soft, wet soil of a bog allows water to___8___the underground reservoirs. What happens to the balance of nature if the bog is filled in? Many housing development projects have been built where____9___once were . The____10___of the houses are likely to have problems. They are likely to water, to flood in rainy seasons. Huge storm sewers are built to carry away with the water from wet areas. These huge pipes prevent wet basements in the house of the munity. A) mix I) marshes B) reach J) easy C) disappear K)hinder D) join L) basements E) greatly M) benefit F) slowly N) recycling G) sick O) water H) quality 根據(jù)詞性分類,選項(xiàng)中有 5個(gè)名詞、 6個(gè)動(dòng)詞、 2個(gè)形容詞和 2個(gè)副詞。該部分測(cè)試重點(diǎn)在于把握文章的結(jié)構(gòu),主要考察考生對(duì)諸如連貫性、一致性、邏輯聯(lián)系等語篇、語段整體特征的把握以及單詞在實(shí)際語境中 的理解,即要求考生在理解全文的基礎(chǔ)上了解文章的宏觀結(jié)構(gòu),理解掌握具體的單詞。在看完兩段話之后,可以先回答后面的主旨題。而各類題目大都有自己的慣用句式。這些錯(cuò)誤方法都會(huì)影響我們的閱讀速度。因?yàn)檫@兩類題目需要考生在原文基礎(chǔ)上適度地思考推理,才能得出正確答案。就算自己的知識(shí)儲(chǔ)備相當(dāng)全面,但是原文中沒有提及,也只能回答 NG,而不是 N。所以做推論題時(shí)特別要小心判斷 NG的情況。從題目類型看,快速閱讀題的 4道正誤判斷題,一般由主旨題、細(xì)節(jié)題和推論題構(gòu)成。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞在文中找到小標(biāo)題“ Stranglers and Buttresses”下面的內(nèi)容,此部分的第一段結(jié)尾處解釋了“ Stranglers”的摧毀作用與原因,尤其注意“ that the host tree dies”。不難找出在第五段倒數(shù)第二句出現(xiàn)了“ canopy”這個(gè)詞,閱讀此句會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)很重要的詞“ thinner”。本題考查熱帶雨林的全年天氣情況。 may have flown many miles away from the fruitbearing tree. There are also a large number of reptiles and mammals in the rainforest. Since the weather is so hoi and humid during the day, most rainforest mammals are active only at night, dusk or dawn. The many rainforest bat species are especially well adapted for this lifestyle. Using their sonar, bats navigate easily through the mass of trees in the rainforest, feeding on insects and fruit. While most rainforest species spend their lives in the trees, there is also a lot of life on the forest floor. Great apes, wild pigs, big cats and even elephants can all be found in rainforests. There are a number of people who live in the rainforests, as well. These tribes— which, up until recently, numbered in the thousands— are being forced out of the rainforests at an alarming rate because of deforestation. Deforestation In the past hundred years, humans have begun destroying rainforests at an alarming rate. Today, roughly acres of rainforest are destroyed every second. People are cutting down the rainforests in pursuit of three major resources: ? Land for crops ? Lumber for paper and other wood products ? Land for livestock pastures In the current economy, people obviously have a need for all of these resources. But almost all experts agree that, overtime, we will suffer much more from the destruction of the rainforests than we will benefit. The world39。s axis, the Northern and Southern hemispheres each spend part of the year tilted away from the sun. Since rainforests are at the middle of the globe, located near the equator, they are not especially affected by this change. They receive nearly the same amount of sunlight, and therefore heat, all year. Consequently, the weather in these regions remains fairly constant. The consistently wet, warm weather and ample sunlight give plant life everything it needs to thrive. Trees have the resources to grow to tremendous heights, and they live for hundreds, even thousands, of years. These giants, which reach 60 to 150 ft in the air, form the basic structure of the rainforest. Th
