项中对应的替换词。做选择题时尤其要注意这一点,当你在两个选项之间徘徊犹豫不决时,一定要注意是否和原文有对应的替换词。
例:剑6 Test 4 Passage 3 第33题
题目:The writer thinks that the declaration “There is no bullying at this school”
A. is no longer true in many schools B. was not in fact made by many schools C. reflected the school?s lack of concern D. reflected a lack of knowledge and resources
原文C段:Until recently, not much was known about the topic, and little help was available to teachers to deal with bullying. Perhaps as a consequence, schools would often deny the problem. “There is no bullying at this school” has been a common refrain, almost certainly untrue.
分析:很多考生看完这几句话,理解到学校对于欺凌现象的不了解导致常常会否认这个问题的存在,并且宣称“在学校里没有欺凌现象”,主观臆断这反映了学校不关心这个问题,就想选C。但是其实这几句话完全没有体现到学校是否缺乏关心的问题,原文中没有lack of concern的对应的替换词。其实仔细阅读就会发现,原文中“not much was known about the topic”和D选项的lack of knowledge替换,原文的“little help was available”和D选项a lack of resources改写,因此得出答案是D。
3. 迷惑项
迷惑项的特点是跟原文长得特别像,看上去几乎没有词的变化,但其实是跟原文意思不一样的,往往进行了概念的偷换。考生在时间紧急或者是读不懂的情况下很容易被迷惑而错选。需要谨记的是,跟原文长得像的选项往往是错误项,而跟原文长得不像的选项往往是正确的。
例:剑7 Test 4 Passage 3 第28题
题目:In noise experiments, Glass and Singer found that A. problem-solving is much easier under quiet conditions. B. physiological arousal prevents the ability to work.
C. bursts of noise do not seriously disrupt problem-solving in the long term. D. the physiological arousal of control subjects declined quickly.
原文:
The noise was quite disruptive at first, but after about four minutes the subjects were doing just as well on their tasks as control subjects who were not exposed to noise. Their physiological arousal also declined quickly to the same levels as those of the control subjects.
分析:根据这段话我们可以发现出现了两组人进行比较,一组是“subjects”, 即有噪音干扰的实验对象,而另一组是“control subjects”, 指的是没有受到噪音干扰的对照组。很多考生可能会发现第二句话和D选项特别像,没有仔细思考,直接就选了D。但是若仔细阅读,就会发现D选项的主语是control subjects, 即对照组,而原文的主语是“their”, 联系上下文就会发现指的是subjects, 即接受实验的人。两者主语完全不同,D选项就是迷惑考生的选项。而若是考生仔细阅读,就会发现原文意思是噪音一开始很干扰人,但四分钟以后实验对象就和对照组表现的一样好了,由此可见长期来讲噪音不会干扰问题解决,最终得出答案选B。
以上就是笔者对雅思阅读选择题选项类型的全面解析,希望考生在做选择题时不要再想当然,只凭着感觉做题,而是可以把每个选项对号入座,观察是错误项、干扰项、还是未提及项。在做题中仔细思考,有理有据,方能提高正确率!
