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 根據詞性分類,選項中有 5個名詞、 6個動詞、 2個形容詞和 2個副詞。其中 N)為動名詞 2)答 題時: a.分析填空處,選擇合適的單詞 —— 根據空處的前后確定空處單詞的詞性、單復數及時態(tài), b.重讀全文,注意上下文的連貫 —— 將 10處空填完后,再完整地把文章看一遍。此句的意思是“水滲透進土壤就像是浸透進天然的地下水庫”?!硎尽胺浅?、“很”,不符合原意,故選 F項?!巴ㄟ^快速的蒸發(fā),水??在空中 。故選 C項。根據上下文可知,本段 的第一句也提到“ recycling system。 4. 。此空之后的兩句話就證明了此句的觀點:非常容易理解。故選 J項。從文中可知此旬話的意思是“家里和工廠排出的污水不能和引用水混合在一起”?!鼙硎敬艘?。此空也必須根據第三段的大意做出選擇。所以第三段的中心句,即第三段第一句所表示的意思應該是“人們還通過其他的方式破壞環(huán)境”。 8. B .次空要求填動詞。選型中還有“ reach” ,“ join” 和“ benefit”三個動詞,只有“ reach”符合文義。根據上下 文可知,“在曾經是沼澤地的地方,建了很多住房開發(fā)項目。 .此空要求填名詞。選項中只有“ basements”符合文意。 從題目選項的角度看,做題順序無需與出題順序一致。這樣可以快速有效的完成此題??焖匍喿x的正誤判斷題通常是按照文章的順序從前往后排列的,所以按題目順序做題會快捷方便。還要注意的是,一個詞只能使用一次,所以已經選擇過的選項,在填下一空時應不予考慮。由于備選項有 15個,只有 10個是我們需要的正確答案,因此多余的 5個將是混淆項。反義詞主要考核我們對文章結構的理解、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 );不同時態(tài)的詞則是考查對全文的整體掌握及對上下文邏輯關系的理解 (根據樣題,此題對考生不做選項改寫要求,所以我們可以根據上下文時態(tài)對應的原則考慮,同時也給自己進一步縮小選擇范圍 )。如果選項為連詞,要關注上下句內在的邏輯關系。 2)簡答題 大學英語六級考試要求學生閱讀一篇長度為 400— 450詞的文章,然后回答文后的 5道簡答題。簡答題主要是考查學生對篇章的理解能力、書面表達能力和概括能力。 簡答題考察的是考生對文章整體的理解以及表達能力。略讀 是要抓住文章的中心思想,而查讀則是重點關注需要補全的或簡答的句子。 以下是試點考試樣卷中的簡答題: Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. America is a country that now sits atop the cherished myth that work provides rewards, that working people can support their families. It39。t have enough to eat. Some are the people who e in at night and clean the skyscrapers that glitter along the river. Some pour coffee and take care of the aged parents of the people who live in those buildings. The American Dream for the welltodo grows from the bowed backs of the working poor, who too often have to choose between groceries and rent, In a new book called The Betrayal of Work, Beth Shulman says that even in the booming 1990s one out of every four American workers made less than $ 8, 70 an hour. An ine equal to the government39。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。re really talking about. Five of the 10 occupations expected to grow big in the next decade are in the lowestpaying job groups. And before we sit back and decide that39。 instructive to consider he rest of the world. While the bottom 10 percent of American workers earn just 37 percent of our average wage, their counterparts in other industrialized countries earn upwards of 60 percent. And those are countries that provide health care and child care, which eases the economic pinch considerably. 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, a second mortgage and the cost of the stuff that has bee the backbone of American life. When the middle class feels poor, the poor have little chance for change ,or even recognition. Questions: 1. By saying it might as well begin with the words 39。 (Line 3, Para. 1), the author suggests that the American myth is _____________. 2. What is the American Dream of the welltodo built upon? 3. Some Americans try to make themselves feel less guilty by attributing the poverty of the working people to_________. 4. We learn from the passage that the difference in pay between the lowest paid and the average worker in America is ________________ than that in other industrialized countries. 5. According to the author, how would an American family with a car and a house in the suburbs probably feel about themselves today? (2) 答題時: a 注意很多細節(jié)題,問答題與原文細節(jié)只是換了一種說法,或者用了意思相近的詞,或者是同位語從句、定語從句的再述。還有第 3 題也是屬于這類。low skilled39。例如第 4 題用了比較級,所以可以根據語法現(xiàn)象得知此處應該填形容詞的比較級。這類題需要理解簡答項涉及的細節(jié),然后根據語法來作答。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? 這是一個對比句,以前感覺比較富裕,而現(xiàn)在則覺得窮。 簡答題答題原則 簡答題 (1) 理解到位,把握中心思想 篇章簡答首先也是要求考生對一篇文章的中心思想能夠準確把握。 (2) 題區(qū)判定 除了主旨題和作者的觀點及態(tài)度題之外,其他的題目都是針對某一個具體的段落、句子或短語和單詞來設計的。 (3) 細節(jié)選擇 細節(jié)選擇可以是對題區(qū)判定的另一個說法,也可以是對它的進一步深入。圈定所要答題的具體細節(jié),是撥開迷霧的唯一方法??v觀大學英語六級考試簡答題所給出的題目,其中所要求的答案能從文章本身照搬的少之又少。 (5) 準確表達意思,避免重復、繁瑣以及畫蛇添足 由于大學英語六級考試簡答題在字數上的限制 (按以往的評分標準,超過 10個詞是要扣分的 ),考生在回答問題時一定要語言精煉,抓住核心內容,準確表達。 (6) 注意提問方式和答案的協(xié)調性 不難理解,如果文章用“ why來提問,考生的第一反應就應該是用“ because”引導的從句來作答。 (7) 合乎語法、拼寫、標點規(guī)則 在作答時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點符號等。不要啰嗦復述,拖泥帶水,一定要言簡意賅,直接回答 提出的問題即
