2016年托福考试阅读题各种题型解题方法
前面应届毕业生小编已经给诸位2016年托福考试的考生分享了五种阅读题型的解题策略,今天小编要给大家讲另外五种题型的解题策略,希望同学们掌握这些方法,在考试的时候运用,帮你拿到托福考试阅读高分。
否定信息题
Negative Factual Information questions (0 to 2 questions per set )
首先我们来介绍一下否定信息题,Negative Factual Information questions。这种题型的提问方式一般为:
l According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true of X?
l The author’s description of X mentions all of the following EXCEPT ?
在解答这种题目的时候首先要注意的是避免惯性思维的影响。在前面讲过的所有题目当中,或者是平时大家的做题习惯当中,我们都是看到与原文相符或者和原文一样的选项就选,但是到了这个题目,需要选择不属于题干内容或者与原文相反的选项,这是需要注意的一点。
一般这种题目的定位范围都在原文的某一个或者两个自然段,所以第一步需要的就是根据题目大定位到某个自然段,然后根据选项特征对应原文进行选题。我们来看一个例题:
Paragraph 7: The Cognitive Approach. Cognitive psychologists assert that our behavior is influenced by our values, by the ways in which we interpret our situations and by choice. For example, people who believe that aggression is necessary and justified-as during wartime-are likely to act aggressively, whereas people who believe that a particular war or act of aggression is unjust, or who think that aggression is never justified, are less likely to behave aggressively.
Paragraph 8: One cognitive theory suggests that aggravating and painful events trigger unpleasant feelings. These feelings, in turn, can lead to aggressive action, but not automatically. Cognitive factors intervene. People decide whether they will act aggressively or not on the basis of factors such as their experiences with aggression and their interpretation of other people’s motives. Supporting evidence comes from research showing that aggressive people oftendistort other people’s motives. For example, they assume that other people mean them harm when they do not.
9. According to the cognitive approach described in paragraphs 7 and 8, all of the following may influence the decision whether to act aggressively EXCEPT a person’s
○Moral values
○Previous experiences with aggression
○Instinct to avoid aggression
○Beliefs about other people’s intentions
这道题目的定位范围是两个自然段,四个选项中有三个会influence the decision whether to act aggressively,有一个选项不会“影响一个人决定是否要表现的具有侵略性”,我们要选择这个选项。首先,在第七自然段的第二句“Cognitive psychologists assert that our behavior is influenced by our values, by the ways in which we interpret our situations and by choice.”中就提到moral values,对应A 选项。其次,在第八自然段中,第四句“People decide whether they will act aggressively or not on the basis of factors such as their experiences with aggression and their interpretation of other people’s motives.”中提到两个选项,一个是“their experiences with aggression”对应B选项,另外一个是“interpretation of other people’s motives”对应D选项。只有C选项的instinct没有提到,这道题目选择C选项。
Inference questions ( 0 to 2 questions per set )
Inference questions 推理题
推理题的标志是在题干中出现infer/imply/suggest/indicate/most likely 这样的词汇,它和细节题属于同源题目,都需要定位并且根据文中信息来选择答案。与细节题不同的是,推理题在找到原文中定位点之后考察的是学生对于文中信息的总结概括,或者反向推理的能力。我们来看一道例题,
It should be obvious that cetaceans-whales, porpoises, and dolphins-are mammals. They breathe through lungs, not through gills, and give birth to live young. Their streamlined bodies, the absence of hind legs, and the presence of a fluke3 and blowhole4 cannot disguise their affinities with land-dwelling mammals. However, unlike the cases of sea otters and pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses, whose limbs are functional both on land and at sea), it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like. Extinct but, already fully marine cetaceans are known from the fossil record. How was the gap between a walking mammal and a swimming whale bridged? Missing until recently were fossils clearly intermediate, or transitional, between land mammals and cetaceans.
Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about early sea otters?
○It is not difficult to imagine what they looked like
○There were great numbers of them.
○They lived in the sea only.
○They did not leave many fossil remains.
首先我们来对题目的出题范围进行定位,题干的blowhole可以作为定位词汇,定位到原文的第四句话:“However, unlike the cases of sea otters and pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses, whose limbs are functional both on land and at sea), it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like.”在这句话里交代了“unlike the casess of sea otters”,即与sea otters不一样的是,whales的陈述是:it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like.即,不容易看出第一头鲸长什么样子。而sea ottter是和鲸鱼相反,所以选择A选项,即不难看出第一头sea otter长什么样子。所以实际上,这种题目虽然叫做推理题,但是并不需要同学们在做题的时候推的过远,基本考察的还是对原文信息概括和总结的能力。
