對(duì)于全國(guó)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)四六級(jí)考試,精心準(zhǔn)備了大半年的考生們都已摩拳擦掌,準(zhǔn)備上考場(chǎng)一顯身手了。作為四六級(jí)的考試難點(diǎn)和分?jǐn)?shù)“大頭”,閱讀和寫作一直是體現(xiàn)考生能力以及拉開分?jǐn)?shù)差距的部分。如何在強(qiáng)化訓(xùn)練后達(dá)到飛躍,我們特請(qǐng)長(zhǎng)春新東方四六級(jí)名師為考生“支招”,根據(jù)多年經(jīng)驗(yàn)總結(jié)出幾大應(yīng)考技巧,供廣大考生參考和借鑒。
遵循一定的做題程序
考生拿到考卷的時(shí)候,首先關(guān)注的點(diǎn)就是應(yīng)該怎么做題目,做題的順序分別是什么。在閱讀部分,特別是四級(jí),35分鐘做四篇文章的時(shí)間相對(duì)緊張,有相當(dāng)一部分是4+5或5+4的模式,即花4分鐘看文章,花五分鐘做題目;蛘呋ㄎ宸昼娍次恼,四分鐘做題目,這個(gè)相對(duì)不是特別合理。因?yàn)樵跁r(shí)間非常有限的情況下,我們需要非常有效率地看文章,要帶有目的性。
所以專家建議考生拿到考卷時(shí)先看題目,再看問(wèn)題?刹捎1+4+4的模式,即用1分鐘時(shí)間把后面的題目看一下,了解到是考什么方向,考詞匯,還是考推理,還是考細(xì)節(jié)。做了這樣一個(gè)分析以后,考生在看文章的時(shí)候就會(huì)非常有目的性,閱讀的任務(wù)也會(huì)非常明確。所以建議大家先看后面的題干。需要注意的是,看題干即可,后面這四個(gè)選項(xiàng)就不用看了,因?yàn)樗膫(gè)選項(xiàng)各自有迷惑性,看多了反而會(huì)影響思維。在看完題干之后, 就可以用大致4分鐘時(shí)間把文章看一下,再用4-5分鐘時(shí)間把后面的題目做完。只要你第1分鐘是有效的,看文章之后,就會(huì)非常有方向感。如果看文章是有方向感的,后面做題目,當(dāng)然也非常有效率。
找準(zhǔn)信號(hào)詞“一目十行”
專家提醒考生,在文章的瀏覽(即略讀,skimming)過(guò)程中,對(duì)文中信息重要性的判斷可以幫助考生快速有效地了解段落的大意。在瀏覽過(guò)程中,考生可以通過(guò)尋找“信號(hào)詞”來(lái)區(qū)分重要信息和非重要信息。下列是閱讀過(guò)程中幾類常見的“信號(hào)詞”。提示下文所涉及的重要信息: The main/important point/conclusion/reason… The point to note here… ;提示了下文的結(jié)構(gòu)框架: There are three major reasons… ;but和however表示對(duì)比,常常用來(lái)提示重要信息,例如:The rising birth rate is not due to increased fertility, but to a sharp decline in the death rate.
在文中提問(wèn)可以突出問(wèn)題后的答案,提示考生答案中有重要信息,例如:Why is a piped water supply so important? Disease due to contaminated water is a common cause of death in childhood.
有時(shí),為了保證讀者完全理解自己的觀點(diǎn),作者會(huì)在文中反復(fù)提出自己的觀點(diǎn),例如:Death control can be achieved autonomously. In other words, the death rate can be cut without anything else changing.
文章的結(jié)論通常是非常重要的,因此,考生要在文中尋找提示結(jié)論的“信號(hào)詞”,例如:Therefore the result…, In conclusion, we can conclude…, One of the primary conclusions…
舉例是為了幫助讀者理解某一個(gè)觀點(diǎn),因此,文中的例子并不是瀏覽文章時(shí)的重要信息。在閱讀過(guò)程中,以下詞組提示讀者下文僅僅是舉例部分信息。For example/instance like…,Such as these include…
在段落瀏覽時(shí),考生在看到“信號(hào)詞”后,應(yīng)不斷對(duì)下文信息做出相應(yīng)的判斷,比如:The main reason for(提示:下文信息重要)there duction in the death rate in the developing world has been improved public health measures. For example,(提示:下文信息不重要,僅僅是為了用來(lái)證明前面的觀點(diǎn))in SriLanka the death rate was halved over ten years by spraying the mosquitoes which carry malaria. Why (提示:?jiǎn)栴}的答案中有考生應(yīng)關(guān)注的重點(diǎn))is it so easy to cut the death rate in this way and yet so hard to reduce the birth rate? One answer(提示:這只是眾多答案中的一種,并不是最重要的)is that public health measures can be very cheap. Anti-malarial spraying is inexpensive. But this is not the important point(提示:but后面的是非常重要的信息). For birth control programmers to be successful, a change in attitude is required, where as death control can be achieved autonomously. In other words,(提示:這里是作者想要強(qiáng)調(diào)的重要信息)the death rate can be cut without anything else changing.
