與原文正面沖突的情況占90%。舉例:
原文:United States ranks somewhere in the middle of the major countries in landfill disposal.
問題:Compared with other major Industrialized countries, America buries a much higher percentage of its solid waste in landfills. (樣題)
原文:There’s an energy crisis in America, and it has nothing to do with fossil fuels.
問題:The energy crisis in America …… refers to a shortage of fossil fuels. (2006年真題)
原文:…and by 1921 there were 387,000 miles of paved roads. Many were built using…adequate drainage. Beyond that, there were no national standards for size, weight restrictions, or …
問題:National standards for paved roads were in place by 1921. (2006年真題)
偷梁換柱的情況占5%。舉例:
原文:…a typical cancer patient has predictable attitude. She …feels depressed, upset, and angry.
問題:… have observed that a typical patient feels depressed, impatient and angry. (模擬題)
原文:Japan has effectively run out of low-wage workers …and, in some cases, beyond Western technological standards.
問題:The technological standards in many areas of Japan’s economy are superior to those in the West. (模擬題)
曲解原文的情況占5%。舉例:
原文:They must be able to listen to delegates and to translate at the same time! This is a difficult but very important job. One small mistake could cause many problems.
問題:Translation for the UN General Assembly is a very important job because they must be able to listen and translate at the same time.
另外,包含絕對詞(must, all, never…)的命題一般是No,包含相對詞(may, can, possibly…)的命題一般是Yes。
四級閱讀NG 的題遠不如雅思那么讓人欲吐而不得。中國人的思維方式畢竟比較一致。只提醒一條:我們有前后兩道題做參照,所以,要相信自己的定位是準確的。如果在某一段里找不到相關(guān)信息,上一段或者下一段也不可能再出現(xiàn)了。這時,要果斷地選NG。
二.后三道 (3分鐘)
1.審題(參考第二步);
2.定位(當然到文章后面的段落找答案。注:文章后面,并不意味著肯定在前七道題的后面,比如,第8題的答案有可能在第7題的前面);
另外,密切注意空白前面緊挨著的詞語。
3.答題。答題時請注意,你填的基本都是原文,但它出的題目可未必,很可能包含同義詞替換,例如2006年6月的第10題:
The interstate system was renamed after Eisenhower in recognition of ______________________.
定位詞Localizer:rename 和Eisenhower,答案:his vision and leadership.
原文:The highway system was officially renamed for Eisenhower to honor his vision and leadership. ( honor = in recognition of )
提醒:后三道題需要更強的概括能力,而且還得書寫英文,小心名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)、動詞的語法變化,相對難一些,所以,要給足三分鐘的時間。
最后送大家一句話:Do, or do not. There is no try.
