雅思阅读单选题选项详解
选择题(Multiple Choice)是雅思阅读中最为常见的题型之一,可能也是伴随众多小烤鸭们时间最久的考试题型,没有之一。从幼稚园到博士生甚至职业资格考试,更无须说诸多英语考试之中,选择题都是最常使用的考查方式。在雅思阅读中,选择题主要分为单项选择题和多项选择题两种形式,前者通常为四选一,后者为多选多,常表现为五选二、八选三甚至十一选五等形式。
在长期的雅思阅读教学中,笔者发现很多烤鸭对选择题,尤其是单项选择题表现的信心十足:相对于判断、配对、小标题等雅思独门题型,单选题显得亲切而熟悉。然而,仔细研究就会发现,大量考生在单选题上并没有占到便宜,这通常表现为两种情况:一是花费太多时间逐一比对选项,导致选择题正确率高但是整体做题时间不够;二是匆忙定位或者不能定位,从而只看选项中与原文相似的部分进行选择,导致掉进命题者设置的陷阱。因此,笔者提醒考生,要做好单选题必须注意最好选项的分析。
单选题的选项在命题中通常呈现以下特点:
1、每道题的选项都围绕原文某一到两句话展开;
2、正确答案的选项通常是原文的同义改写;
3、经常设置与原文用语极为相似的选项作为干扰项;
4、常见成对且意思相近或相反的选项。
基于以上命题分析,笔者建议考生在做题前,应该在结合段落大意和定位题干的基础上,通过对选项的分析,帮助找到以下几方面的信息。
首先,利用分析选项进行定位。以剑6TEST3 PASSAGE 1第12题为例:
12 When cinema first began, peoplethought that
A it could always tell stories
B it should be used in fairgrounds
C its audiences were unappreciative
D its future was uncertain
这道题目本身从命题来讲为考生设置了很大难度,一方面其在原文中对应的段落(H段)距离上一道题的位置(D段)横跨了大半篇文章,另一方面其题干中并没有合适的定位词。因此本题最好的定位方式是求助于选项。仔细分析不难发现,B选项中fairground(游乐场)一词,属于特定的意义的名词,可以用来定位,并可以很快就此找到原文对应句Indeed, some said that, once this novelty had worn off, cinema would…a fairground attraction.
其次,分析选项可以快速帮助考生确定各个选项之间的关系,特别是成对选项之间的相似相反关系,从而更快地判断命题者实际考察的考点,以便回到原文中直接查找判断。即使对于基础较薄弱,很难理解原文的'考生,分析选项找到成对选项也有助于提高做题的正确率,因为正确答案通常就在相似相反选项之中。
分析成对选项,主要找相似的结构和相似的词组两方面。有时会出现四个选项两两相配的情况,则先分析两组间的区别,再分析具体两个选项即可。
举两个例子,首先是剑6 TEST 4PASSAGE 3第33题
33 The writer thinks that thedeclaration “There is no bullying at this school”
A is no longer true in many schools
B was not in face made by many schools
C reflected the school’s lack of concern
D reflected a lack of knowledge and resources
显然,C项和D项具有共同的结构 reflect和alack of,因此可以预测答案就在两项之中,具体分析可知两项的区别在缺乏的究竟是concern 还是knowledge,通过题干的引语定位可知原文为Until recently, notmuch was known about the topic, and little help was available to teachers todeal with bullying. known一词即提示正确答案为D项。
再看剑4 TEST2 PASSAGE2 第15题:
15 In 1990, Americans
A were prescribed more herbal medicines than in previous years
B consulted alternative therapists more often than doctors
C spent more on natural therapies than orthodox medicines
D made more complaints about doctors than in previous years
本题的定位词十分明确,且题目顺序与原文顺序高度统一,但是难点在于选项很长且多用复杂的同义替换词,例如orthodox等,一开始就吓住了很多基础平凡的烤鸭。事实上,只要仔细分析就可以发现,正确高效地解题并不需要全部掌握选项中的词汇。
很明显,本题AD两项和BC两项分别形成了成对的相似相反选项,前者都有than in previousyears 这个结构,后者都通过more than 结构对替代治疗和传统医学进行了对比。因此,首先我们应该回到原文判断,原文中的对比是时间上的对比(1990年与其他年份)还是该年度中两项事物的对比。通过定位可以找到American*ade more visits to alternative therapist than to orthodox doctors in 1990, andeach year they spend about $US 12 billion on therapies than have not beenscientifically tested一句。显然,并没有提到其他年份,因此可以确定答案在BC之中。再分析B、C两项可知,其区别点在于B强调more often,C强调spentmore,则确定考点在于原位对比的是次数还是花费,显然,made more visits一词说明答案是B。
可见,分析选项是提高单选题做题效率的一把利器,但是烤鸭在复习和考试中也应当注意,不要过度依赖做题技巧,首先要提高的一定是自己的英语语言基础,这样才能更好的利用方法,策略解题。
雅思阅读熟词多义题解析
英语中纯粹的单义词很少,绝大多数词都是多义词,即一个词项有两个或两个以上的意义。在雅思阅读中,有很多词汇看似很简单,很熟悉,殊不知他有多个意思。把小伙伴们都迷得晕头转向的。今天我来为大家收集整理了雅思阅读熟词多义题解析,希望小伙伴们在雅思考试时能提高警惕,不再犯迷糊!
以下主要就雅思阅读剑桥真题部分的一些存在熟词多义的题目进行解析:
1.drive
C4T1P1:
In other words, they gave no indication of an appreciation of either the range of ways in which rainforests are important or the complex social, economic and political factors which drive the activities which are destroying the rainforests.
这是一个复杂的长难句,一共出现了三处定语从句,一处ways in which, 一处factors which,一处activities which。
drive的主语为连接代词which代指的先行词factors,提取之后变为factors drive the activities, 这里如果将这里作为动词的drive 翻译成驾驶,句子是完成不通顺的,我们从后一处的定语从句中得知,activities指的是破坏雨林的行为,也就是前面的社会经济和政治因素drive了一些破坏雨林的行为,也就是说,这里的drive是导致,迫使的意思。
C6T1P2
选项型SUMMARY
Q24: Manufacturers of computers, for instance, are able to import 24................. from overseas, rather than having to rely on a local supplier.
文章E段 To see how this influences trade, consider the business of making disk drives for computers. Most of the world's disk-drive manufacturing is concentrated in South-east Asia. This is possible only because disk drives, while valuable, are *all and light and so cost little to ship. Computer manufacturers in Japan or Texas will not face hugely bigger freight bills if they import drives from Singapore rather than purchasing them on the domestic market.
通过manufacturers of computers定位到E段。阅读后我们可以知道电脑*商集中在东南亚*和进口disk drives而不是本国市场。如果同学对电脑知识比较了解的话,对于drive在这里的理解应该问题不大。根据一定的语法知识我们看得出这里的disk drives和disk-drive是名词用法,可通过drive的基本含义“驾驶”进一步引申理解,“驾驶磁盘”过渡为“让磁盘启动”,正确的理解含义为:磁盘驱动器。对应到题目提供的选项“B. components”
2.subject
我们知道它由“科目”的意思,词汇稍好的同学还会知道它还有“主语”和“主题”的含义。我们来看下面一题:
C5T1P2
单选题 Q20 The teacher-subjects were told that they were testing whether
A a 450-volt shock was dangerous.
B punishment helps learning.
C the pupils were honest.
D they were suited to teaching.
文章A段 Specifically, Milgram told each volunteer 'teacher-subject' that the experiment was in the noble cause of education, and was designed to test whether or not punishing pupils for their mistakes would have a positive effect on the pupils' ability to learn.
文章这里的'teacher-subject'打了引号,也就是说即便同学你不认识,把它当作一个特殊词符号,不理解不影响做题。不过明显的是,把“科目”“主语”“主题”放这里,都不好理解。在雅思阅读学术实验类的文章中,subject是个高频词汇,作为“实验对象”的含义来使用, 有时会同义替换为volunteer或participant。
C8T1P3
表格填空Q38 The results were then subjected to a 38…………………….
文章:In 1987, results from hundreds of autoganzfeld tests were studied by Honorton in a 'meta-*ysis', a statistical technique for finding the overall results from a set of studies.
通过冠词a我们可以知道此空填名词单数,并且从表格纵轴同行的特殊定位词in 1987,我们找到了定位句。但是定位句中存在冠词a的三处,到底三处后的单词填哪个呢。单词不会,语法来凑,通过题目和文章的主干结构的一致性:A be subjected to B和A be studied By B in C, 由于Honorton是人名且不符合填词规定,顺理成章的'meta-*ysis'成为我们的选填对象。那subject to到底什么意思呢,通过文章,我们可以知道大概是被研究的意思,查了字典我们就了解,正确含义为“受…支配”。
类似的用法单词还有:
1. state n. (美国的)州,状态,*,adj. 国家的,国立的 v.陈述,说明
C8T4P1 判断题Q8 Private schools in Japan are more modern and spacious than state-run lower secondary schools. State-run adj国立的
C7T4P1 第5段 There was a huge initial force- five times larger than the steady state force, Gharib says. State n.状态
2. coin n. 硬币, v. 创造,铸造
C7T1P1 E段 The American zoologist Donald Griffin, who was largely responsible for the discovery of sonar in bats, coined the term 'echolocation' to cover both sonar and radar, whether used by animals or by human instruments. Coin v 创造(first used)
3. spoke v. speak过去式,n 车轮的辐条(C4T1P3)
4. tuitionn. 学费,课程,讲授,教学(C4T1P1)
5. complaint n. 抱怨,*,疾病(C4T2P2)
6. Interest v. 是感兴趣n. 兴趣,利益,利息(C4T3P1)
7. leaves v. leave的动词三单形式 n.叶子(Pl)(C8T4P3)
8. press v. 按压,n. 印刷,新闻工作者,新闻(C5T1P3/C5T4P2)
(pressing adj. 迫切的,急切的 C7T1P2)

Ta*anian Tiger
塔斯马尼亚虎
Although it was called tiger, it looked like a dog with black stripes on its back and it was the largest known carnivorous marsupial of modem times. Yet, despite its fame for being one of the most fabled animals in the world, it is one of the least understood of Ta*ania's native animals. The scientific name for the Ta*anian tiger is Thylacine and it is believed that they have become extinct in the 20th century.
Fossils of thylacines dating from about almost 12 million years ago have been dug up at various places in Victoria, South Austnilia and Western Australia. They were widespread in Australia 7000 years ago, but have probably been extinct on the continent for 2000 years. This is believed to he because of the introduction of dingoes around 8000 years ago. Because of disease, thylacine numbers may have been declining in Ta*ania at the time of European settlement 200 years ago, but the decline was certainly accelerated by the new arrivals. The last known Ta*anian Tiger died in Hobart Zoo in 1936 and the animal is officially dassilied jis extinct. Technically, this means that it has not been officially sighted in the wild or captivity for 50 years. However, there are still unsubstantiated sightings.
Hans Naarding, whose study of animal had taken him around the world, was conducting a survey of a species of endangered migratory, bird. What he saw that night is now regarded as the most credible sighting recorded of thylacine that many believe has been extinct for more than 70 years.
"I had to work at night",Naarding Uikes up the story. "I was in the habit of inlermittently shining a spotliglit around. The beam fell on an animal in front of the vehicle, less than 10m away. Instead of risking movement by grabbing for a camera, I decided to register very carefully what I was seeing. The animal was about the size of a *all shepherd dog, a very healthy male in prime condition. What set it apart from a dog, though, was a slightly sloping hindquarten with a fairly thick tail being a straight continuation of the backline of the animal. It had 12 distinct stripes on its hack, continuing onto its butt. I knew perfectly well what I was seeing. As soon as I reached for the camera, it disappeared into the tea-tree underprowth and scrub."
The director of Ta*ania's National parks at the time, Peter Morrow, decided in his wisdom to keep Naarding's sighting of the thylacine secret for two years. When the news finally broke, it was accompanied by pandemonium. I was besieged by television crews, including four to five from Japan, and otliers from the United Kingdom, Germany, New Zealand and South Ainerica,w said Naarding.
Government and private search parties combed the region, but no further sightings were made. The tiger, as always, had escaped to its lair, a place many insist exists only in our imagination. But since then, the thylacine has staged something of a comeback, becoming part of Australian mythology.
There have been more than 4,000 claimed sightings of the beast since it supposedly died out, and the average claims each year reported to authorities now number 150. Associate professor of zoology at the University of Ta*ania, Randolph Rose, has said he dreams of seeing a thylacine. But Rose, who in his 35 years in Ta*anian academia has fielded countless reports of thylacine sightings, is now convinced that his dream will go unfulfilled.
"The consensus among conservationists is that, usually, any animal with a population base of less than 1,000 is headed for extinction within 60 years,” says Rose. “Sixty years ago, there was only one thylacine that we know of, and that was in Hobart Zoo,he says.
Dr. David Pemberton, curator of zoology at the Ta*anian Museum and Art Gallery, whose PhD thesis was on the thylacine, says that despite scientific thinking that 500 animals are required to sustain a population, the Florida panther is down to a dozen or so animals and, while it does have some inbreeding problems, is still ticking along. Mril take a punt and say that, if we manage to find a thylacine in the scrub, it means that there are 50-plus animals out there.
After all, animals can be notoriously elusive. The strange fish known as the coelacanth, with its "proto-legs", was thought to have died out along with the dinosaurs 700 million years ago until a specimen was dragged to the surface in a shark net off the south-east coast of South Africa in 1938.
Wildlife biologist Nick Mooney has the unenviable task of investigating all wsightingsw of llie tiger totalling 4,000 since the mid-1930s, and averaging about 150 a year. It was Mooney who was first consulted late last month about the authenticity of digital photographic images purportedly taken by a German tourist while on a recent bushwalk in the state. On face value, Mooney says, the account of the sighting, and the two photographs submitted as proof, amount to one of the most convincing cases for the species' survival he has seen.
And Mooney has seen it all—the mistakes, the hoaxes, the illusions and the plausible accounts of sightings. Hoaxers aside, most people who report sightings end up believing they have seen a thylaeine, and are themselves believable to the point they could pass a lie-detector test, according to Mooney. Otliers, having tabled a creditable report, then become utterly obsessed like the Ta*anian who has registered 99 thylacine sightings to date. Mooney has seen individuals bankrupted by the obsession, and families destroyed. "It is a blind optimi* tliat something is, rather than a cynici* that something isn’t,” Mooney says. “If something crosses the road, it’s not a case of ‘I wonder what tliat was?* Rather, it is a case of 'that's a thylacine!' It is a bit like a gold prospector's blind faith, "it has got to be there".
However, Mooney treats all reports on face value. I never try to embarrass people, or make fools of them. But the fact that I don't pack the car immediately they ring can often be taken as ridicule. Obsessive characters get irate tliat someone in my position is not out there when they think the thylacine is there."
But Hans Naarding, whose sighting of a striped animal two decades ago was the highlight of Ma life of animal spotting", remains bemused by the time and money people waste on tiger searches. He says resources would be better applied to saving the Ta*anian devil, and helping migratory bird populations that are declining as a result of shrinking wetlands across Australia.
Could the thylacine still be out there? MSure,w Naarding says. But he also says any discovery of surviving thylacines would be Mrather pointless". MHow do you save a species from extinction? What could you do with it? If there are thylacines out there, they are better off right where they are."
