第一篇:电大学位英语学习-阅读技巧
阅读技巧
一、概述
阅读理解(Part I Reading Comprehension),短文选材的原则是:
1.题材广泛。包括人物传记、社会、文化、日常知识、热门话题及科普常识等。涉及的背景知识应能为学生所理解。
2.体裁多样。包括叙述文、说明文、议论文等。
3.文章的语言为中等难度。无法猜测而又影响理解的关键词,如超出全日制文理科教学大纲中词汇表一至三级的范围,则用汉语注明词义。
二、考核内容
根据《统测考试大纲》的要求,主要测试以下6大类问题: 1. 提问文章主要观点
比如会经常出现下列提问形式(选择题题干):
(1)Which of the following is the main point of the passage? 下列哪项是文章的主要观点?(2)The author is primarily concerned with.作者主要关注的是。
考生应当排除文中的次要观点,归纳和总结其中的主要观点或中心思想,或者基本目标。2. 提问文中的具体论据
(1)The author mentions which of the following…? 作者提到以下哪个……?(2)According to the author…根据作者…(3)The author provides information that would answer which of the following questions.本文提供的信息回答下列问题 这类提问主要用来测试考生理解文中各个论据的能力,区别文中的主要观点的能力。考生不公应仔细阅读,还要有耐心各信心选择正确答案。3. 提问文章的逻辑结构
(1)The author develops the passage primarily by…作者主要通过发展通道
(2)Which of the following best explains why the author introduces…? 下面哪一个最好的解释了为什么介绍……? 提问作者采用何种途径说明事由,或者论证的论据是否充分,凡此都用来检验考生对文章的理解能力和评论能力。4. 寻求文章的推断观点
(1)The passage implies that…文章暗示…
(2)It can be inferred from the passage that……从文章中可以推断出来…
(3)Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? 这可以从文章中推断出什么? 它要求考生能推断话语中深层含义或弦外之音。要学会理解作者的内涵和反义,或者作者选用某一词语的比喻用法。5. 猜测某一单词或短语的具体含义
(1)The phrase“——”in the context means…“”这句话在上下文的意思
(2)The word“——”most nearly means…最近的手段
(3)Which of the following is closest to the word“…”in paragraph 2? 下列哪个是最接近的词“……”2段 这要求考生具有根据构词法或上下文猜测词汇或短语的能力。6. 作者的观点和态度
(1)The author's attitude towards…作者的态度…
(2)What's the author's opinion about…? 什么是作者的见解……?
这不仅用来测试考生在其他场合下如何应用作者思想的能力,而且检验考生识别事理关系能力,文中必有充分论据支持作者的态度、观点和信仰等。
三、考试常见问题在三级英语统一考试中,许多考生在阅读理解部分失分较多。究其因主要有以下几个方面: 1.阅读方法欠妥,速度较慢2.对生词的恐惧心理 3.对句与句,段与段之间的逻辑关系不重视 4.不熟悉试题类型及解题方法
四、解题技巧及方法
(一)阅读方法1.根据上下文,猜测词义
在做阅读题时,考生不可能知道所有词汇的意义,不可避免会遇到不认识的词汇或固定短语。只要生词不多,考生 通过提高自己的猜词能力,同样可以理解一个句子、一个段落,乃至一篇文章的含义。(1)考生通过构词法猜测词义
1)派生法:有些单词是由前缀或后缀加上词根构成。如:in+correct=incorrdct
use+ful=useful 2)合成法:有些单词是由两个单词合成的。
如:green+house=greenhouse
ice+box=icebox 3)缩略法:有些单词由于所含的字母太多,在文章中出现时,通常用缩略的形式。如:advertisement-ad.Laboratory-lab.4)拼缀法:有些单词是由两个单词拼缀而成的,但与合成词不同的是拼缀后的单词并不是两个单词的简单相加。如:smoke+fog-smog(烟雾)Chinese+English-Chinglish(中文式英文)
(2)考生通过分析生词所在的句子、段落的上下文,运用自己所掌握的语法构词法以及对其背景的了解,可以决定许多词在特定句子、段落中的内在涵义。运用上下文猜测词义,必须注意以下几点:
1)利用句子中自己能理解的其他词汇用句子的基本含义来推断生词的词义。
2)运用所掌握的英语语法和表达句子中各部分关系的标点符号来判断生词的含义。3)仅仅要求了解该生词的大概意义,不一定要明白该词汇的定义或同义词。2.略读:略读的方法是首先看一下标题(在标题的情况下)。接着读第一段,抓住中心思想。再浏览一下其他段落的首句和末句。最后读完结尾段,这样就达到了略读的目的。略读要点
一、将不熟悉的困难词语放弃不读,领会句子大意。
略读要点
二、阅读中有时会遇到一些较长的句子,可以通过语法结构了解什么是支撑主题的细节描写句,略去细节描写的部分,直接读出其中心含义。
略读要点
三、特别注意那些重要的构词和标点符号,因为它们可能会导致重要词汇意义的改变。通常,略读适用于考查文章言主旨或大意的试题。
例:After a hectic day of work and play, the body needs to rest.Sleep is necessary for good health.During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day.The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before.As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little.Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down.After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream, Scientists who study sleep state say that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly(although your eyelids are closed).This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply.Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy.There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!Question: A good title for this passage is____.A.sleep B.good health C.dreams D.work and rest 说明:本题属于主旨型试题,答案为A项。全文共分为四段。第一段说明睡眠的重要性;第二段解释睡眠的四个阶段用睡眠中肌肉、心跳各大脑的活动;第三段指出做梦时伴有眼球活动这一现象;第四段告诉我们治疗失眠的办法。这四段一环扣一环,始终没有离开睡眠这一主题,所以A项是正确答案。回答本题时,考生无需逐句地读,只读首句或末句就行了。
3.迅读:迅读要领一:首先确定你需要什么事实和细节,并对其形式进行估计。迅读要领二:在略读中由于对各段落和句子已进行过分析,已大致了解主题和细节,迅读要领三:尽快用眼睛扫过文章,找到自己需要的细节描述部分,并在有关句子下做出各种记忆符号。
例:Languages are marvelously complex and wonderfully complicated organs of culture: they embody the quickest and the most efficient means of communicating within their respective culture;in the words of a poet and philosopher,“ As many languages as one speaks, so many lives one lives”.A culture and its languages are as inseparable as brain and body;while one is a part of the other, neither can function without the other.In learning a foreign language, the best beginning is with the non-verbal linguistic elements of the language, its gestures, its body language.Eye contact is extremely important in English.Direct eye contact leads to understanding, or, as the English maxim has it, seeing eye-to-eye.We can never see eye-to-eye with a native speaker of English until we have learned to look directly into his eyes.Question: According to this passage, the best way to learn a foreign language is____.A.to read the works of poets and philosophers B.to find a native speaker and look directly into his eyes C.to begin by learning its body language
D.to visit a country where English is spoken 说明:本题属于细节型试题,答案为C项。原文中的第四名“In learning a foreign language, the best beginning is with the non-verbal linguistic elements of the language, its gestures, its body language.”,其中“non-verbal”意为“非语言的”。此句大意为:学外语最好由非文字性语言因素开始经,即从学习讲这种语言的人的手势、肢体语言入手。因此“to begin by learning its body language”正好与题意吻合,故应推断C项为正确答案。考生只需运用迅读法,快速找到这句话所在位置,然后根据句意做出正确的判断。
例:Very high waves are destructive when they strike the land.Fortuately, this seldom happens.One reason is that out at sea, waves moving in one direction almost always run into waves moving in a different direction.The two sets of waves tend to cancel each other out.Another reason is that water is shallower near the shore.As a wave gets closer to land, the shallow bottom helps reduce its strength.But the power of waves striking the shore can still be very great.During a winter gale, waves sometimes strike the shore with the force of 6,000 pounds for each square foot.That means a wave, 25 feet high and 500 feet along its face, may strike the shore with a force of 75 million pounds.Yet the waves, no matter how big or how violent, affect only the surface of the sea.During most raging storms, the water a hundred fathoms(600 feet)beneath the surface is just as calm as on a day without a breath of wind.Question: From your reading of the paragraph, which of the following is true? A.At a depth of 1,200 feet the effects ofa violent surface storm are frightful.B.A submarine commander navigating his vessel at a depth of 700 feet will not be affected by a raging surface storm.C.A typhoon 500 miles out at sea can stir up the ocean bed.D.If high waves can strike the shore with a horizontal force of 75 million pounds, the vertical force of such waves can have an even greater effect upon the ocean floor.说明:本题答案为B项。此项为判断题。在本文报后一段,作者表述的意思为:不管海浪多高,多凶猛,它只影响到海面以下有限的深度。即使在最大的风暴中,600英尺以下尝试的水域也会像没有一丝风的白天那样风平浪静。选顼A意为“狂风巨浪会对1200英尺以下的水域造成可怕的影响”;B项意为“一名在水深700英尺以下驾驶潜艇行的指挥员有会受海面上的狂风巨浪的影响”;C项意为“风速每小时500英里的台风能海底的东西掀上来”;D项意为“如果巨浪袭击海岸的力量水平方向为75000000磅,那么它的垂直方向作用在海底的力量比水平方向作用力还要大”。根据最后一段内容,只有B项正确,因为潜艇是在700英尺以下水域航行。A项,C项与B项矛盾,可以排除,D项在短文中没有涉及。正是基于对这部分进行研读,考生才能够得出正确答案。5.整体阅读(1)篇章的阅读。(2)句、段的阅读。
(二)答题方法针对阅读理解的不同题型和测试点,答题可采用以下几种基本方法。1.对应法:根据试题要求到文章中去寻找相应的答案。在寻找答案时要注意:(1)题目与文章段落的对应位置(一般来说题目的顺序与文章段落的顺序是一致的)。通常第一题在文章开头的一、二段里找到的可能性大,而最后一题的答案在文章的最后或后半部分找到的可能性最大。但有时为了提高答题的难度,可能打乱题目与段落的这种对应关系。
(2)注意题目中醒目的词语及符号,如大写的专有名词、年代、符号以及出现次数很少的词语等。题目中的这些词语和符号在文章中的相应部分也会出现,找到了它们也就找到了答案。注意以上两点,既节省答题时间,又可以提高准确性。
2.分析法:通过对文章有关内容的分析和推论得出正确答案。有些文章没有直接说明某个问题,但通过对文章有关此问题的细节的分析,可推出正确答案。
3.归纳法:根据段落内容归纳段落中心思想,根据各段中心思想提炼主题。4.淘汰法:亦称排除法,即通过淘汰错误答案,以取得正确答案。
这里介绍的各种答题法都不是孤立的,可以综合运用,比如做一个较难的题,首先通过分析法找到自己认为正确的答案,然后再用淘汰法排除剩下的三个错误答案,这样就证明了自己的选择完全准确可靠,保证了答题的准确性。
五、实例讲解 例1:Hillary Rodham Clinton released the first television spot of her Senate campaign this morning, a 30-second commercial that will begin airing statewide on Thursday.The spot, titled “First,” uses numerous still photos to highlight landmarks in Mrs.Clinton's career, while the voiceover says she is “more than a fist lady.”
There is no mention of Mrs.Clinton's rival for New York's Senate seat, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson said the ad was “positive” and “biographical,” instead of focusing on the first lady's opponent.Mrs.Clinton has previously aired radio ads, but has generally stayed with a strategy of making extensive campaign appearances instead of using television spots, while Giuliani has already run statewide TV ads.Text of Hillary Commercial: First she became a lawyer, named one of the top hundred in America.Her first cause was children, fighting abuse and chairing the board of the Children's Defense Fund.Her first priority was public schools, helping to establish teacher testing.More than a first lady.For 30 years, she's fought for children and families.As New York's senator, she'll fight for better schools and heath care for children.Hillary, Put her to work for all of us.1.What does the word “air” in the first sentence mean?
A.dry B.express C.breathe D.broadcast 2.What does “more than first lady” in the first paragraph suggest?
A.Hillary is not a first lady.B.Hillary does much more than what a first lady is expected to do.C.There are more women in America who does better than Hillary does.D.Hillary is doing better than her husband.3.Which of the following statement is true regarding the Senator campaign according the passage? A.Hillary has appeared on TV shot for mumerous times.B.Hillary rarely makes her public appearance.C.Giuliani has made TV advertisement for himself.D.Hillary has a bigger chance to win the campaign.4.Hillary's campaign focuses on all the flooowing except_____.A.children's health careB.school education for children C.combating child abuseD.family planning policy 5.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage? A.First Lady's Senator CampaignB.Hillary's TV Advertisement C.A Rivalry for New York's Senate SeatD.The Focuses of Hillary Campaign [难点]1. 今早,希拉里竞选纽约州议员的电视演说拉开了序幕;Hillary Rodham Clinton:希拉里;美国现任总统克林顿夫人。Spot:(在无线电广播、电视中播出的)短小节目;commercial:宣传
2. 这句话的意思是该电视节目特别播出了希拉里政绩上的一些重要照片。Highlight:突出;landmark:(具有转折意义的)重大事件
3. Voiceover:旁白;话外音
4. Biographical:关于一个人的材料的;美国,一般的竞选广告都包括竞选双方的资料,但是在该电视广告里,只播放了希拉里的资料,所以克氏竞选团的发言人说,这次广告具有肯定意义。5. Strategy:策略6. Abuse:虐待 [答案]1.D考点:该题是一个词汇题
解析:本题提问的是第一段中的“air”是什么意思。由这句话我们可以得知,希拉里今天早晨发表了她竞选纽约州议员的电视宣传;为时30分钟的电视宣传将于星期二开始进行全国播放。由该句的意思我们可以猜出“air”的意思为“播放”。所以,答案为D.而其他三个词A(晒干),B(表达)和C(呼吸)均与原义不符,故不能入选。2.B考点:这是一个理解判断题。
解析:本题提问的是第一段里“more than first lady”是什么意思。在世界各地,第一夫人作为国家元首的妻子,是一国之母,她的形象一般是一个帮助总统处理好家务,并且进行一些妇女活动和慈善事业,借此来提高元首的形象。但是,希拉里作为第一夫人,她所做的超出了第一夫人的职责。她不但在社会活动中经常露脸,而且直接参与政事,开始竞选起议员来了。所以,选项B应该是该题的答案。3.C考点:这是一个对原文事实的理解题。
解析:本题提问的是对此次参议院竞选,以下哪一个说法是正确的。文章的第四段告诉我们,希拉里以前曾经在广播上作过宣传,但是她一直采取的战略是频频在公众场合出现,而不是使用电视宣传;与她不同的是,Giuliani已作过全国电视宣传。由该段可知,选项C为正确答案。从文章的第一句话我们可以得知,这是希拉里第一次在电视上为自己作宣传,所以,选项A和B不符合原文;此次议员竞选,花落谁手尚未分晓,所以,选项D也不能入选。4.D考点:这是一个对原文细节的分析判断题。
解析:本题提问的是以下哪一下不是希拉里的竞选重点。希拉里的竞选广告在文章的最后几段里;它的重点是学校教育;作者评论道,在过去的30年里,希拉里一直都在为儿童和家庭的幸福斗争。将来当了纽约的参议员,她会为孩子们的良好教育和健康保险而努力;由此我们得知,选项A(儿童健康保险)B(儿童的学校教育)和C(打击虐待儿童现象)都是她的竞选重点,只有选项D(计划生育政策)与原文不合,所以,D为本题答案。5.A考点:该题是一个主旨题,考的是文章的题目应该是哪一个。
解析:本文从第一夫人希拉里-克林顿为其入选纽约参议员拉开序幕讲起,对目前的竞选状况作了一个大概介绍,并且对希拉里的竞选内容作了一个介绍,同时,作者表达了他自己的观点;整篇文章以介绍她的竞选情况为主,所以,选项A(第一夫人竞选参议员)用以概括全文最为全面,因此,为正确答案。例2:
America is in no immediate danger of “running out of water”.People in the West have been aware that water is a precious commodity and must be conserved.In the damp East, an excess of water led to complacency until two factors created concern over our water supply.First, the periods of drought from the 1961 to 1966 in the Northeast affected crop production and used up the surface and ground water supplies.Second, attention was called to rapid increases in the rates of pollution of these waters resulting from increased urban and industrial growth.As a result, there is an increasing awareness of the need for conserving the quantity and quality of our nation's water supplies.Water is a renewable resource, but it is not exhaustible.When used for municipal, industrial, or agricultural purposes, it is not destroyed, but generally finds its way back into our water supply.This used water now carries some waste materials.These dirty waters are often dumped into large bodies of water or are disposed of on land.In the latter instance, evaporation concentrates some of the wastes on the soil surface.On the other hand, water moving through the soil will eventually carry some of the wastes down into the ground water supplies, Eventually, all water evaporates and later returns to the earth as rain or snow in a relatively purer state.Through this never-ending cycle, there is just as much water in this country now as there ever was.The amount, however, does not increase.Our rapid population growth and our agricultural and industrial expansion have caused our water needs to soar.By withdrawing water from streams too quickly, we have in some instances upset the balance of nature's built-in renewal processes for conserving water.As a result, some of our streams and lakes have become “wet deserts.” There is still plenty of water in them, but its water is so polluted that it supports almost no life at all.1.The passage is mainly about_____.A.water resources of the United StatesB.the renewal processes of water in mature C.the importance of water conservationD.water pollution in America 2.The word “drought” in the sentence “First, the periods of drought——ground water supplies.” Most probably means_____.A.catastrophe of too much rainB.danger of running out of water C.calamity dry weatherD.damage caused by typhoon 3.Water is relatively purer in_____.A.fast moving streams and riversB.underground water supplies C.mountainous areasD.rain and snow 4.When theauthor says that lakes have become “wet deserts”,._____ A.he is being angryB.he is being optimistic C.he is being sadD.he is being humorous 5.It is implied in the passage that______ A.water can be polluted by desertsB.there are many water conservation programs in America C.water keeps evaporating from the earth's surfaceD.water is not polluted by waster maberials [难点]1.run out of用完,耗尽2.commodity商品,货物3.complacency自满,满足4.drought长期干旱,旱灾 5.result from是——的结果,由于——而发生6.inexhaustible用不完的,无穷尽的7.municipal市政的,市办的 8.dispose of处理,丢掉,清除9.evaporation蒸发10.withdraw提取,取回11.deposit放下,放置 [答案]1.C考点:这是一道典型的文章主旨题。
解析:文章第一段的最后一句话是文章的中心思想,指出人们越来越意识到保护水的量和质的必要性。第二、三段主要讨论节约用水和水污染 的危害。第二段指出,水虽然百一种可再生的资源,但并不是用之不竭;第三段说,人口的急剧增加,工农业的快速发展使得用水需求高涨并造成严重的水污染。综上所述,我们可以看出,文章主要讨论保护水资源的重要性。选项A、B、D都是以偏概全。2.C考点:这是一道理解题。
解析:题目要求猜测“drought”一词的含义,我们可以通过这个词的上下文来理解它的意思。文章第一段第四句说,1961至1966年东北部地区的drought影响了农作物的生产,使地表水和地下水供应枯竭。据此我们可以推断出这个词的含义是旱灾。
3.D考点:这是一道细节题。解析:答案在文章第二段的最一句:“Eventually, all water evaporates and later returns to the earth as rain or snow in a relatively purer state.”(最终所有的水蒸发,然后以更加纯净的形式降雨或降雪回到地球。)4.D考点:此题考察学生对作者态度的理解。
解析:文章第三段最后一句很好地解释了“wet desert”的含义,即:一些河流、湖泊中有大量的水,但污染非常严重,几乎所有的生物都不能使用。根据这个解释,我们可以理解作者说这番话的心情,作者面对这样一种情况只能感到悲哀,而不是愤怒,因为愤怒无济于事,更不是感到乐观或幽默。5.C考点:此题考察学生的判断能力。
解析:根据文章第二段的最后一句:“Eventually, all water evaporates and later returns to the earth as rain or snow in a relatively purer state.”,我们可以推断出水不停地从地球表面蒸发掉,然后在高空中变成水的固态形式。选项A和D与文章内容不符。选项B在文章中没有提及。例3:
In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day.Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem.People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority.Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone awry.Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days.Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.1.What is the main purpose of this passage? A.To look back to the early days of computers.B.To explain what technical problems may occur with computers.C.To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.D.To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers.2.According to the passage, initial concerns about computers were that they might_____ A.lead us into the post-war eraB.be quite widespreadC.take controlD.take over routine tasks 3.The passage recommends those dealing with computers to_____ A.be reasonably skeptical abort themB.check all their answers C.substitute them for basic thinkingD.use them for business purposes only 4.An “internal computer” is_____
A.a computer uses exclusively by one company for its own problems B.a person's store of knowledge and the ability to process it C.the most up-to-date in-house computer a company can buyD.a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable 5.The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is_____ A.challengingB.psychologicalC.dramaticD.malfunctioning [难点]1.widespread 普遍的,广泛的2.relieve 减轻,解除,使得到解脱3.dramatic 引人注目的,突然的4.foreseen 预见的,预知的5.reluctant 不情愿的,不愿意的6.authority 权威7.malfunction 发生故障,发生功能障碍8.invest 投资;花钱买;耗费,投入9.rely on 依赖,依靠10.go awry 出岔子,失败;(人)背离正道11.substitute 代替物,代用器 [答案]1.D考点:这是一道典型的文章主旨题。
解析:文章分析了人们过分依赖电子计算机这一问题,在结尾向人们提出了忠告:尽管电子计算机可以提供各种帮助,但是它不应被视为代替人们基本思维和推理的东西。文章主要目的是警告人们在心理上对计算机不要采取懒惰的态度。
2.C考点:这是一道细节题。
解析:问题的答案在文章的第一句之中:“In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day.”(在计算机历史的前期即战后初期,人们普遍担心计算机可以能会代替人类统治世界)选项C与这一句的含义完全一致,故为正确答案。
3.A考点:这是一道推断题。解析:文章第二段第二句说:“Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days.”由此我们可以推断出,文章建议那些与计算机打交道的人应该对它们采取合理的怀疑态度。
4.B考点:这是一道理解题
解析:理解:“internal computer”的含义的关键是确定“internal”的意思。这个词几个基本含义:内部的,体内的,内在的。从它所在的上下文来看,它的意思是:“体内的”。“internal computer”是一种比喻说法,指人的大脑,它比计算机更聪明、更复杂,具有储存知识和运用知识的能力。因此,选项B是正确答案。5.B考点:这是一道推断题。
解析:根据文章内容我们得知,当今电子计算机的问题既不是令人深思的也不是容易出故障。而选项C与文章内容不符。它的问题是人们在心理上过分信赖它,对它的能力毫不怀疑。因此选项B是正确答案。
第二篇:电大学位英语学习-宾语从句
一.宾语从句的定义
置于动词、介词等词性后面起宾语作用的从句叫宾语从句。宾语从句的语序必须是陈述语序。谓语动词、介词、动词不定式,v.-ing形式后面都能带宾语从句。有些形容词(afraid,sure,glad等)之后也可以带宾语从句。
二.宾语从句中引导词的用法
在复合句中作主句的宾语,引导词有:
连词:that(that 常可省略),whether, if
代词:who, whose, what ,which
副词:when ,where, how, why 等。
(一)that引导的宾语从句(在非正式场合that可以省略)
可跟that从句做宾语的动词有:
say, think, insist, wish, hope, demand, imagine, wonder, know, suppose, see, believe, agree, admit, deny, expect, explain, order, command, feel, dream, suggest, hear, mean, notice, prefer, request, require, propose, declare, report等。
例句:The boy believes that he will travel through space to other planets.注意事项:当主句谓语动词是 think, believe, suppose, expect 等词,而宾语从句的意思是否定时,常把否定转移至主句表示。
例句:I don’t think it is right for him to treat you like that.在以下情况中that不能省略
当句中的动词后接多于两个由that引导的宾语从句时,第一个that可省,但后面的that不可省。例句:He said(that)you were too young to understand the matter and that he was asked not to tell you.当主句的谓语动词与that宾语从句之间有插入语时,that一般不可省。
例句:Just then I noticed, for the first time, that our master was wearing his fine green coat and his black silk cap.当that从句是双宾语中的直接宾语时,that不可省。
例句:I can’t tell him that his mother died.注意事项:许多带复合宾语的句子,that引导的宾语从句经常移到句子后部,而用it作形式宾语。例句:I find it necessary that we should do the homework on time.(二)由whether,if 引导的宾语从句
由whether(if)引导的宾语从句,实际上是一般疑问句演变而来的。意思是“是否”。宾语从句要用陈述句语序。一般说来,在宾语从句中whether与if可以互换使用,但在特殊情况下if与whether是不能互换的。
例句:I wonder whether(if)they will come to our party.只能用whether,不能用if引导的宾语从句
在带to的不定式前
例句:We decided whether to walk there.在介词的后面
例句:I’m thinking of whether we should go to see the film.在动词后面的宾语从句时
例句:We discussed whether we had a sports meeting next week
直接与or not连用时
例句:I can’t say whether or not thet can come on time.只能用if不能用whether引导的宾语从句
if引导条件状语从句,意为“如果”
例句:The students will go on a picnic if it is sunny.if引导否定概念的宾语从句时
例句:He asked if I didn’t come to school yesterday.引导状语从句even if(即使)和as if(好象)时
例句:He talks as if he has known all about it.(三)连接代词和连接副词引导的宾语从句
这样的宾语从句实际上是由特殊疑问句变化而来的,宾语从句要用陈述句语序。用于这种结构的动词常常是:see, say, tell, ask, answer, know, decide, show, find out, imagine, suggest, doubt, wonder, discover, understand, inform, advise等。
英语中的连接代词有:who,whom,whose,which,what,在句中担任主语、宾语、定语或者表语。例句:Can you tell me whom you are waiting for?
英语中的连接副词有:when,where,why,how,在句中担任状语的成分。
例句:None of us knows where these new parts can be bought.三.宾语从句的语序
宾语从句的语序是陈述句语序即:连接代词/副词+主语+谓语+其他成分。例句如下:
I don’t know what they are looking for.Could you tell me when the train will leave?
Can you imagine what kind of man he is?
四.宾语从句的时态
主句是一般现在时,从句根据实际情况使用任何时态。
例句:The headmaster hopes everything goes well.主句是过去时态,从句须用过去时态的某种形式。
例句:She was sorry that she hadn’t finished her work on time.当宾语从句表示的是一个客观真理或者事实时,即使主句是过去时,从句也用一般现在时态。例句:The teacher told his class that light travels faster than sound.五.宾语从句的特点
宾语从句可以作及物动词、介词及形容词的宾语。
宾语从句的语序一律用陈述句语序。
连接词that引导宾语从句在句中无词义,不充当句子成份,多数情况下可以省略。
whether 和 if 都可引导宾语从句,但 whether后可紧跟or not;whether从句可作介词的宾语。如果从句太长,可以用形式宾语it.48个国际音标助记口诀
国际音标四
十八、个个都要记清它,元音单、双二十整,辅音清、浊二十八。
单元音又分中、前、后,依次各有二、四、六,双元音数也是双,正好八个不要漏。
辅音虽多也别慌,清浊成对有十双,剩下[h][r][l][j][w],还有鼻音[m] [n] [ŋ]。
有气无声清辅音,有声无气浊辅音,发音特点应掌握。
be动词用法口诀
我用am,你用are,is连着他,她,它;
单数名词用is,复数名词全用are。
变疑问,往前提,句末问号莫丢弃。
变否定,更容易,be后not莫忘记。
疑问否定任你变,句首大写莫迟疑。
开音节与闭音节区分口诀
开音节,音节开,一元字母在后排;不怕一辅堵后门,还有哑e在门外。
闭音节,音节闭,一元字母生闷气;辅音字母堵后门,一元字母音短急。
英语词类口诀
句子要由词组成,英语词类有十种:
句中成分用实词,名、代、动、副、数、形容;
冠、介、连词和感叹,虚词附加或沟通;
词类功能掌握了,造句之时好运用。
英语语序口诀
主、谓、宾、表同汉语,定语有同也有异。状语位置更特殊,不能全和汉语比。
肯定句变一般疑问句口诀
have和be提句首,其它助词Do开头。时间、人称由do变,动词只把原形留。谓语助词有几个,第一助词提句首。
肯定句变否定句口诀
否定词语加not,放在be和have后;其它要加动词do,do的后面加not;
时间、人称由do变,动词原形总保留;谓语若是助词多,not紧跟第一个。
名词所有格变化口诀
名词只变数,不分主宾格。人和动物类,可变所有格。
撇后加s,相当汉语“的”。时间、距离等,也变所有格。
名词变复数口诀
单数变为复数式,加上“s”统言之。
下列结尾名词后,要加“s”先加“e”:
发音[∫][t∫][s]和[z],或是辅音加“o”时。
有些名词变复数,词尾变化要注意:
“y”前字母是辅音,一律变“y”为“ie”;
遇到“f/fe”,有时需要变“ve”;
少数名词不规则,特别情况靠硬记。
时间名词前所有介词的速记口诀
年月周前要用in,日子前面却不行。
遇到几号要用“on”,上午下午又是“in”。
要说某日上下午,用on换in才能行。
午夜黄昏用at,黎明用它也不错。
at也在时分前,说“差”用to,说“过”要用past。介词速记口诀
介词加宾语,才能有实意。表、定、状、宾、补,词组在句里。
in 在„„里,out在„„外,在旁边的是beside,靠近的为by。
on在„„上,under在„„下,above在上头,below在底下。
动词的时态变化口诀
四种时间各四式,联想对比便于记。
时间现在和过去,各自还有将来时。
一般、完成、进行式,完成进行是四式。
四四共有十六种,看来复杂掌握易;
除去have/be以外,动词变化有规律。
动词形式变化口诀
动词根本是原形,变化形式有四种:原形词尾加“s”,现在第三单人称;
过去原形加“ed”,过去分词也相同;原形加上“ing”,现在分词或动名。
原形词尾加“s”,如同名词复数式。若加“ed/ing”,以下情况要注意:
词尾有ie只加d,Ing去掉无声e;词尾ie变成y,然后再加ing;
辅音之后y结尾,y要变i加ed;现在分词不变y,直接加上ing;
词尾重读闭音节,结尾辅音都双写,r做结尾也一样,重读音节r双写;
结尾字母若是“t”,不是重读也双写。过去分词过去式,不按规则也有些。
基数词变序数词
基变序,有规律,词尾字母tdd。八减t,九减e,f要把ve替。ty把y变成i,记住山前有个e。There be的位置和用法口诀
说明何时何地有,there be在主语前。随着主语第一个,be的形式做变换。
be going的用法口诀
be going是助动词,后跟加to不定式。说明“准备”或“就要”,时间人称只变be。
have+got用法口诀
have作为动词“有”,情态动词have;have got惯用语,got可有也可无。
若变否定疑问句,去掉got再加do;或把have提句首,not加在have后。
冠词基本用法口诀
名词是秃子,常要戴帽子,可数名词单,须用a或an,辅音前用a,an在元音前,若为特指时,则须用定冠the,复数不可数,泛指the不见,碰到代词时,冠词均不现。反意疑问句用法口诀
反意问句三要点,前后谓语正相反;短句not如出现,必须缩写是习惯;最后一点应注意,短句主语代词填。
感叹句用法口诀
感叹句,并不难,what、how放句前;强调名词用what,其余用how很简单。宾语从句用法口诀
宾语从句须注意,几点事项应牢记。一是关键引导词,不同句子词相异。
陈述句子用that;一般疑问是否(if,whether)替;特殊问句更好办,引导还用疑问词。
二是时态常变化,主句不同从句异。主句若为现在时,从句时态应看意;主句若为过去时,从句时态向前移。
三是语序要记清,从句永保陈述序。
感观使役动词记忆口诀
一感;feel;二听:hear,listen to;三使:make ,let ,have;四看:look at,see,watch,notice 感观使役动词使用口诀感使动词真奇怪,to在句中象妖怪;主动句里它走开,被动句里它回来;动词let要除外,to词可来可不来。
形容词和副词比较级和最高级构成口诀
结尾直加-er,-est属一般,详细构成方法逐一来侃谈。
一辅音结尾重读闭音节看,辅音双写-er,-est是习惯。
辅音加y(ly)除外有型感,按照去y,-er,-iest方法办。
上述皆属单音部分双音段,下面把多音节规律来看看。
词前加more,most此规律唤。规则变化到此已全都谈完。
有些不规则变化请你记全。“双好”better,best记的宽。
“坏病”worse,worst莫记乱。“双多” more,most不用管。
“老、远”两种形式别记篡,“有点”less,least记清盼。
形容词和副词比较级和最高级用法口诀
一者比较用原级。比较级限二者比。三者三者往上比,最高级的用法起。
若要比项掌握齐,比较范围要搞细。比较级二句型记,做出句子没问题。
若甲乙程度相同,as„as 结构体。甲某方面不及乙,用 not so/as„as来表示。

4.As the school year kicks off, parents are once again straggling to cajole(哄骗)and, if need be, drag their exhausted teens out of bed.That image may make you laugh, but lack of sleep is no joke.(77)Teenagers who don’t get enough rest have more learning, health, behavior and mood
problems than students who get at least nine hours a night.Long-term lack of sleep is tied to heart disease, overweight, depression and a shortened life span in adults, indicating the importance of establishing good sleep habits early in life.Lack of sleep can be especially deadly for teens;car accidents are the leading cause of death among teenagers, and safety experts believe sleepy driving is a major factor.Unfortunately, few teenagers get the sleep they need.In a survey of middle-and high-school students, University of Colorado researchers found that 82 percent said they woke up tired and unrefreshed, and more than half had trouble concentrating during the day at least once a week.Blame multitasking for some of this.Many students are juggling after-school activities, homework and part-time jobs.Even when they manage to fulfill these obligations by a reasonable hour, television, the Internet, video games, phone calls and text messages to friends often keep them awake deep into the night.Taking soda and energy drinks late in the day and going to late-night parties on weekends add to sleep debt.Biology also works against teenagers’ sleep.The body’s internal clock, which controls when a person starts to feel tired, shifts after puberty(青春期), making it hard for most teens to fall asleep before 11 pm.Class usually begins before 8:15 am, with many high schools starting as early as 7:15 am.To get to school on time, most teens have to get up by 6:30 am, guaranteeing they’ll be sleep-deprived during the week.Teens often sleep much later on weekends to catch up, making it even harder to fall asleep on Sunday night and wake up Monday morning.Playing catch-up on weekends also doesn’t help teens stay refreshed when they need it most: during the week at school.Since the 1990s, middle and high schools in more than two dozen states have experimented with later school start times.(78)The results have been encouraging: more sleep, increased attendance, better grades and fewer driving accidents.But most schools still start early, meaning teens have their work cut out for them if they want to get enough sleep.6.According to the passage, poor sleep can be linked to all of the following EXCEPT______.A.heart disease B.car accidents C.skin problems D.poor concentration 7.The main idea of Paragraph 3 is______.A.how sleep deprivation(缺乏)can be treated B.what causes sleep deprivation C.who is most at risk for sleep deprivation D.why sleep deprivation is a serious concern 8.What does the word “juggling” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Dealing with at the same time.B.Striking a balance between.C.Applying for.D.Having difficulty in.9.Which of the following is NOT to blame for teenagers’ lack of sleep?
A.Multitasking.B.Biological clock.: C.Weekend catch-up sleep.D.Healthy diet.10.According to the passage, what have some schools done to help their students get enough sleep? A.Educating their students about the importance of sleep.B.Monitoring their students’ late-night activities.C.Delaying school start times.D.Setting strict rules.正确答案:CBADC 5.The world's population continues to grow.There now are about 6 billion of us on earth and 11 billion in a further 75 years.Experts have long been concerned about such a growth.Where will we find the food, water, jobs, houses, schools and health care for all these people? A major new study shows that the situation may be changing.A large and rapid drop in the world's birth rate has taken place during the past 10 years.Families generally are smaller now than they were a few years ago.It is happening in both developing and industrial nations.China is one of the nations that have made great progress in reducing its population growth.China has already cut its rate of population growth by about one half since 1970.Each Chinese family is now urged to have no more than one child.And the hope is to reach a zero population growth with the total number of births equaling the total number of deaths, by the year 2000.Several nations in Europe already have fewer births than deaths.Experts said that these nations would face a serious shortage of workers in the future.And the persons who are working would face much higher taxes to help support the growing number of retired people.1、The world's population could reach _____.A、6 billion in 75 years B、11 billion in 2075 C、11 billion by the end of this century D、600 million in 15 years 正确答案:B
2、The world's birth rate has dropped because _____.A、people get married at a much later time B、more birth control devices and methods have been used C、woman would rather go to study or work than have children D、all of the above 正确答案:D

2、If your fingers are wounded by a knife, fire or other means, the structure of skin will_______.A、be changed partly B、be replaced by a different one C、be the same when the wound is recovered D、become ugly 正确答案:C
3、Some criminals remove their own fingerprints by _______.A、using printer's ink B、injuring the inner skin C、damaging the outer skin D、damaging the color 正确答案:B
4、Fingerprints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case because it _______.A、is complicated but reliable B、is simple and not expensive C、is expensive but easy to do D、can bring a lot of money 正确答案:B
5、It is _______ for a criminal to deny his crime when fingerprints are used to identify him.A、worth trying B、successful C、useful D、useless 正确答案:D 7.As any middle-class parent knows, unpaid work experience can give youngsters a valuable introduction to a secure job.The government has recognized it too, abandoning rules in 2011 that had formerly stopped 16-to 24-year-o!ds from doing unpaid work while claiming unemployment benefit.But moving from that to forcing them to work without pay in order to collect these benefits has proved a big step.(79)More than one million young people in Britain are unemployed, the highest number since the mid-1980s.Keen both to cut the welfare bill and to avoid the depressed future wages that may result from early unemployment, the government has introduced an ambitious program of reform to get youngsters off welfare and into work.A key part of it is ensuring that no one gets benefit from the government for long;ministers are keen to avoid what happened after the early-1980s recession(衰退), when unemployment continued in some parts of the country for a long time after the economy began to improve.To help young people into work, ministers had persuaded lots of employers, including bakery chains, bookshops, and supermarkets, to take on unemployed youths, who receive work experience but no pay, with the prospect of a proper job for those who shine.(80)Some 35,000 youngsters participated last year;half found paid work soon after finishing the scheme.The idea of getting young adults used to showing up for work is popular with voters: according to a survey published in February, about 60% of people support the program.Equally attractive was the option of compelling them to work: Under the existing arrangements youngsters could choose whether or not to accept a place, but if they dropped out after the end of the first week, they stood to lose up to two weeks’ benefits.Yet the scheme has also polarized(两极分化的)opinion: a third of people are consistently opposed.Following a noisy “Right to Work” campaign that accused employers of co-operating secretly with the government in “forced labor”, several firms dropped out of the program.To prevent this from getting worse, Chris Grayling, an employment minister, admitted that young people could leave their work experience at any time without being punished for doing so.This not only halted the flight of employers(for now, at least)but also enabled him to announce that new firms have agreed to take part in the program.11.According to the passage, young people in Britain.A.are used to showing up for work B.value unpaid work very much C.are always opposed to unpaid work D.could learn something about job security through unpaid work 12.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE? A.Most voters support the government’s effort to help young people to find work.B.Some people protest against the government’s attempt to force young people to work.C.There are more than one million young people who took part in the program.D.There are more than one million young people who are jobless.13.According to the author, the British government is trying to.A.punish young people if they are not cooperating with it B.reform the unemployed youngsters C.avoid the economic slowdown D.reduce welfare spending 14.The word “shine” in Paragraph 3 means “ “.A.do well B.reflect light C.look happy D.produce light 15.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage? A.Enjoy Work Without Pay B.Can Work, Won’t Work C.Should Work, Shouldn’t Play D.Hate Work or Love Work 15.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?

There, too, most people have it wrong.It's rarely luck or inheritance or even intelligence that builds fortunes.Wealth is more often the inexorable(无情的)result of a person's hard work, perseverance(坚定不移)and most of all, self-discipline.The most successful accumulators of wealth spend less than they can on houses, cars, vacations and entertainment.Why? Because these things offer little or no return.The wealthy would rather put their money into investments or their businesses.It's an attitude.The best wealth-builders pay careful attention to their money and seek professional advice.Those who spend heavily on cars, boats and houses, I've found, tend to skimp(节约使用)on investment advice.Those who skimp on the luxuries are usually more willing to pay top dollar for good legal and financial advice.The self-made rich develop clear goals for their money.They may wish to retire early, or they may want to leave an estate to their children.The goals vary, but two things are consistent: they have a dollar figure in mind-the amount they want or save by age 50, perhaps---and they work unceasingly toward that goal.One thing may surprise you.If you make wealth---not just income---your goal, the luxury house you've been dreaming about won't seem so alluring(吸引人的).You'll have the attitude.1、You are wealthy if you ______.A、earn a large income B、enjoy a high standard of life C、are able to spend large sums of money D、save up an amount of money 正确答案:D
2、Which is the most important factor to be wealthy? A、Good fortune.B、Intelligence.C、Hard work D、Self-discipline 正确答案:D
3、Why don't the wealthy spend much money on cars, vacation and entertainment? A、Because they cannot afford on these luxuries.B、Because they can not gain wealth form these things.C、Because they are busily engaged in their business and thus have no free time.D、Because they put their money into other investments, which leaves them no money for these things.正确答案:B
4、Which kind of the following people would be most likely seek professional advice? A、The people who intend to buy house.B、The people who have financial problem.C、The people who invest in business.D、The workers who build up a skyscraper.正确答案:C
5、Which of the following statement is TRUE? A、The rich people have the same goal of retiring at 50 when they have earned a certain sum of money.B、The wealthy people share two things-the amount of money they will make and diligence.C、The wealthy people usually retire at the age of 50 and then enjoy the rest of life happily.D、Luxurious home is a sign of people's wealth, so wealthy people are sure to buy it.正确答案:B
9.It seems like every day there’s some new research about whether our favorite drinks are good for us.(76)One day, science says a glass of red wine a day will help us live longer.The next day, maybe not.It seems journalists are pretty interested in wine research and the same might be said for coffee.Now, there’s been a lot of research into whether coffee’s good for our health.“The results have really been mixed”, admits Neal Freedman who led the coffee study and published his findings in a medical journal recently.“There's been some evidence that coffee might increase the risk of certain diseases and there’s also been maybe more recent evidence that coffee may protect against other diseases as well.”
Freedman and his colleagues undertook the biggest study yet to look at the relationship between coffee and health.They analyzed data collected from more than 400,000 Americans ages 50 to 71 participating in the study.“We found that the coffee drinkers had a modestly lower risk of death than the non-drinkers,” he said.Here's what he means by “modestly”: those who drank at least two or three cups a day were about 10 percent or 15 percent less likely to die for any reason during the 13 years of the study.When the researchers looked at specific causes of death, coffee drinking appeared to cut the risk of dying from heart disease, lung disease, injuries, accidents and infections Now, Freedman stressed that the study doesn’t prove coffee can make people live longer.A study like this can never prove a cause-and-effect relationship.(77)All it can really do is to point researchers in the right direction for further investigation.And even if it turns out that coffee is really good for you, scientists have no idea why.1.According to the first paragraph, reporters would like to know the research findings of ____.A.tea B.beer C.alcohol D.coffee 2.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUCE? A.Freedman and his colleagues hired 400,000 Americans to collect date.B.About four hundred thousand Americans worked for Freedman's team full time for 13 years.C.People who took part in Freedman's research are about 50 to 70 years old.D.People who are 50 to 70 years old seldom drink coffee.3.According to the author, scientists____.A.have already proved that coffee is good for human health B.have a long way to go before they find a way to study coffee C.have avoided the cause-and-effect approach to study coffee D.are still unable to figure out why coffee is good for us 4.The word “mixed” in the first paragraph means “_____”.A.both good and bad B.put together C.both sharp and soft D.confused 5.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage? A.Can Beer Help You Live Longer? B.Can Coffee Help You Live Longer? C.Can Wine Help You Live Longer?
D.Can Tea Help You Live Longer? 正确答案:DCDAB
10.We know the moon is about 380,000 kilometers away from the earth.It is always moving.It is moving round once a month.Or to be exact, once every 29 and a half days.The moon looks smaller than the sun.It looks the second biggest in the sky.But in fact it is one of the smallest.It is near to us, so it looks big.Once a month, or to be exact, once every 29 and a half days, the whole moon looks bright and this is the part turning to the sun.The part turning away from the sun looks dark.From this we know the moon has no light of its own.The light comes from the sun.But the dark part of the moon is not black.Usually we can just see it.We see “the old moon in the new moon's arms.” The light making us see the old moon does not come from the sun, but from the earth.We all know water or snow may reflect much of the sun's light to our faces.The whole earth reflects much of the sun's light to the face of the moon.So we can see the dark part of it.1、To be exact, the moon goes round the earth ______.A、once a month B、once half a month C、once every 29 and a half days D、once a day

11.When we’re learning a foreign language, making sense of what we hear is the first step toward fluency.It sounds obvious, but until recently, we didn’t know much about how listening works.New research demonstrates that effective listening involves more than simply hearing the words that float past our ears.Rather, it’s an active process of receiving information and making meaning.This kind of engaged listening is a skill that’s as critical for learning a range of subjects at school and work as it is for learning to understand a foreign tongue.(78)Studies of skilled language learners have identified specific listening strategies that lead to superior comprehension.Last year, for example, University of Ottawa researcher Larry Vandergrift published his study of 106 undergraduates who were learning French as a second language.Half of the students were taught in a conventional fashion, listening to and practicing texts spoken aloud.The other half, possessing the same initial(最初的)skill level and taught by the same teacher, were give detailed instruction on how to listen.It turned out that the second group “significantly outperformed”(胜过)the first one on a test of comprehension.So what are these listening strategies? Skilled learners go into a listening class with a sense of what they want to get of it.(79)They set a goal for their listening, and they generate predictions about what the speaker will say.Before the talking begins, they mentally review what they already know about the subject, and form an intention to “listen out for” what’s important or relevant.Once they begin listening, these learners maintain their focus;if their attention wanders, they bring it back to the words being spoken.They don’t allow themselves to be thrown off by confusing or unfamiliar details.Instead, they take note of what they don’t understand and make inferences about what those things might mean, based on other clues available to them: their previous knowledge of the subject, the context(语境)of the talk, the identity of the speaker, and so on.6.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.Effective listening means hearing the words that float past our ears.B.Developing your listening skills is the first step toward developing fluency.C.Skilled listeners use specific strategies to get the most out of what they hear.D.Listening is one of the most powerful tools we have to gain information.7.What does Vandergrift’s research show?
A.Learners who adopt specific listening strategies become better listeners.B.Learners taught in the traditional way are better at reinforcing what they learn.C.Learners are more confident if they make fewer mistakes.D.Learners who listen on a regular basis improve faster.8.Which of the following statements about Vandergrift’s research is TRUE?
A.The participants were postgraduates learning French as a second language.B.All the participants were taught using the conventional method, with the focus on listening strategies.C.The two groups were taught by different teacher.D.The participants were at the same initial skill level.9.The expression “thrown off” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to “_____”.A.infected B.confused C.ruined D.Informed

第五篇:电大学位英语考试答题技巧
阅读中主题思想题在考试中出现的频率较高,因为这类题可考查考生抓主要信息的能力,而能够抓住文章的主要信息又是阅读能力的一个极为重要的方面。
这类题在设题时常会用到title, subject, main idea , topic, theme等词。常见的提问形式有以下几种:
What is the main idea of the passage? Which of the following would be the best title? What’s the best title for the passage? The main idea of the passage is that _____.This passage tells us _____.Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage? What does the passage mainly discuss? 做这类题时常用略读法,把注意力放在抓主要信息上,不去过分注意细节事实,否则会造成“只见树木,不见森林”的结果。通常的办法是,快速阅读文章时注意找出各段主题句。英文文章各段主题句常放在段首,有时也放在段尾或段落中间,有时不明确写出,通读文章后把各段主题句联系起来,一般就能得出文章主题。
就整篇文章来讲,首段和尾段一般对于解这类题更为重要。我们以97年统考试卷中阅读理解部分的第一篇文章为例:
often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again.Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult.If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved ,whatever he may do.It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.In addition ,life is always presenting new things to the child——things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-know.But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do;he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably.If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry.And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison.If however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.文章后面第四个问题是:
The main idea of the passage is that _____.A.life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains
C.childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life
D.one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life 文章的第一段讲的是人们常听说孩子们盼着长大成人,老年人则希望返老还童。人生的每个阶段总是欢乐伴着苦恼,而最幸福的人则是那些既享受人生每一阶段所带来的欢乐,又没有因虚度年华而终生后悔的人。第二段讲述了一个人儿童时代的欢乐与苦恼,第三段则告诉读者青年人的责任与义务,机遇和挑战。从以上三段文字来看,第一段中第二句即是主题句,所以我们应选D为正确答案。
阅读理解包括三篇短文,总阅读量不超过900个词。每篇短文后设5个问题,每题2分,共30分。所选短文内容包括人物传记、热门话题、社会、文化、日常知识、科普常识等。阅读理解题要求考生读后能掌握文章的主旨大意,了解说明主旨大意的事实和细节,并根据所读内容进行一定的判断和推论。
阅读理解题是一种综合性的技能测试,它不仅要求考生具有较强的理解能力,还要求考生要有一定的阅读速度。而通常影响阅读理解的主要有三大因素:词汇量、语法知识、背景知识。从前些年三级统考的实际情况看,考生们反映最困难是词汇量太小,其直接后果是感觉时间太紧,答不完试卷。至于后两项也是弱项的考生来说就更困难了。考生要在这一项上取得高分,除了要在词汇量、语法知识、背景知识三个方面多下功夫外,还必须学会掌握一些最基本的阅读技能,了解这部分试题的基本设题思路及解题方法和技巧。下面我分“阅读技巧”和“解题类型及应试技巧”两部分给同学们做详细介绍。
阅读理解一共有15题,规定的考试时间是40分钟,三篇文章中两篇较容易,有一篇较难,三篇文章总词汇量不超过900个单词。阅读理解主要测试考生的四个能力:第一、掌握所读材料的主旨和大意。第二、了解说明主旨答疑的细节。第三、既理解字面的意思又能够根据所读材料进行一定的判断和推论。第四、既理解个别句子的意思又能在上下文上理解逻辑关系。这一部分题型主要考查学生通过阅读获取的能力,要求准确更要求速度。词汇量少直接影响阅读理解,离考试30天,提高词汇量是短期之内突破阅读的瓶颈,获取阅读理解的高分的关键。短期突破的要点是从近3年来6次考试的18篇真题入手,至少能在1个月内掌握80%的大纲要求的词汇,掌握了重点的词汇,也就能提高阅读理解的分数。挑错题是词汇语法的延伸,一共由10个句子组成,词汇语法掌握的好,挑错题也能拿到高分。如果考生语法基础不是很好,建议在考前练习时就注意避免精敲细推,因为考生的能力还远没有达到进行仔细推敲的程度,考试时间也不允许。挑错题本身的干扰性就比较大,往往考生做对了检查时又改错。所以考前一个月多练、快练是策略,不要花费过多精力研究。完型填空是整个五个题型当中最难的一个,从近年看是考生得分率最低的一个题型。这个题型的备考建议考生不要投入过多的时间,而且在考试的时候,对这个题型的时间运用最好不要超过15分钟。翻译是整个试卷当中最容易的一个题型。如果阅读理解能掌握得熟练的话,英译汉写出大意就非常不错了,能得到高分。汉译英的复习建议考生不要盲目地背句子,要掌握以下几个技巧:一个句子如果有四个单词写正确,整个句子也符合逻辑,不出现重大的语法错误,每个句子两分,一般都能得到,可以尝试做这种训练。单词方面:单词是学习英语的基础 , 没有单词一切都是空谈,所以对于“学位英语”考试来说, 部分的词汇不可缺少。语法方面:参考一些语法书籍来巩固所学的知识。考试主要集中在选择题、挑错、完型填空中。短语方面:结合历年考题和大纲中出现的短语,牢记经常出现及常用的短语。考试主要集中在选择题、挑错、完型填空、翻译中。阅读理解:做阅读最快的方法是先看题目然后在找答案。对于文章中首段的第一句和最后一句都是要看,因为它们往往是对文章内容最好的概括,所以我们要先抓重点,而不要管细节,这也是提高阅读速度的要求,对这篇文章的中心思想有大致的了解,接着看文章后面的问题,然后带着问题再读一遍,一边读一边找答案。总之,做阅读理解时要整体地看文章,重在“理解”,不要拘泥于细节,不要陷入陌生单词的陷阱中,如果能把握住整篇文章的中心思想,那么后面的“英译汉”部分就同样变得很容易了,大家一定要争取这两部分不丢分。5 历年真题:在考试之前,把历年真题和模拟试题都做了,为的是了解考试知识点。通过做真题来熟悉题型和难度,并深刻理解道理,这对于考前复习是非常重要。
