解決這類托?碱}的方法:
一、清楚文章的論證類型總分型一般容易出這類考題。我以中文為例,麗麗老師是一個非常好的人。首先,她很樂于助人例如一次我看見她扶一個盲人過馬路,其次麗麗老師很慷慨,有一次我看見她為希望工程捐了她當(dāng)時兜里的全部錢(50元),第三麗麗很謙虛和平易近人。
這樣的文章特別容易出總結(jié)題Lily is a nice person 1、 麗麗樂于助人2、 麗麗扶一個盲人過馬路3、 麗麗老師很慷慨,4、 老余捐了100元5、 麗麗很謙虛和平易近人6、 麗麗經(jīng)常打架正確答案應(yīng)該是 1、3、5
二、解決方法:
一)主體詞排除錯誤選項法首先抓住要總結(jié)的關(guān)鍵詞也就是主體詞,就是要問哪方向的內(nèi)容,如上個例子,主體題麗麗一定會在正確答案中出現(xiàn),不然問的是麗麗可以答案談?wù)摰氖莿e人,就變得完全不相關(guān)了,根據(jù)這個特點我們可以排除 4老余捐了100元如OG上的一道總結(jié)題可以直接使用主體詞排除錯誤選項的方法The technology of modern cinema evolved at the end of the nineteenth century. 1、 Kinetoscope parlors or viewing films were modeled on phonograph parlors 2、 Thomas Edison‘s design of the Kinetoscope inspired the development of large screen projection. 3、 Early cinema allowed individuals to use special machines to view films privately. 4、 Slides-and-lantern shows had been presented. 5、 The development of projection technology made it possible to project images on a large screen 6、 once films images could be projected, the cinema became a form of mass consumption其中只有三個選項有本問題的關(guān)鍵詞,本問題的關(guān)鍵詞是 the technology of cinema.
二)細(xì)節(jié)信息排除法總結(jié)題是對對文章的高度概括所以細(xì)節(jié)的出現(xiàn)犯了以偏概全的錯誤,如中文例子中的2、麗麗扶一個盲人過馬路。 這是一個具體的事實細(xì)節(jié),我們要繞過例子看總結(jié)。所以在排除它。
如OG中的一道題目This passage discusses fossils that help to explain the likely origins of cetaceans-whales, porpoises and dolphins Answer choices 1 Recent discoveries of fossils have helped to show he link between land mammals and cetaceans(這是本文的主題)
2、The discovery of Ambulocetus natans provided evidence for a whale that lived both on land and at sea.(總結(jié)性信息)
3、The skeleton of Basilosaurus are found in what had been the Tehys Sea, an area rich in fossil evidence. (絕對的事實細(xì)節(jié))-排除
4 Pakicetus is the oldest fossil whale yet to be found((絕對的事實細(xì)節(jié))-排除
5、Fossils thought to be transitional forms between walking mammals and swimming whales were found……(主題)
6、Ambulocetus‘hind legs were used for propulsion in the water. ((絕對的事實細(xì)節(jié))-排除
