托福阅读题,读懂题干就对了一半
大家在做题的时候,读好题目是最重要的,如果连题目也没有读好,或者读懂,那么就容易产生找不到答案,通篇读下来不知道应该是文中的那句话是答案了。
因此在做题的时候,我们一定要把题目中的题干信息先读好。
一般情况下,题干里面出现长难句的情况还是比较少有的,大多数时候,很多同学都是读了个大概意思,但是容易忽略或者没有真正读到题目想要考察的考点或者逻辑是什么,因此就容易出错。
当读题的时候,如果读到一些时间点的时候,就是我们需要警惕的时候了,特别是看到题干当中出现before,或者after,一定要看清楚,问的时间段是什么。时间点的考察不仅限于推断题,在细节题或者排除题当中,也是有所考察的,甚至就是设置陷阱的地方。
举个例子
比如下面这道题目:
【paragraph 2】
For the first time, the planting of colonies in distant lands became possible. The Phoenician settlements in the central and western Mediterranean, such as Carthage, and the slightly later establishment of Greek colonies are early examples, while the settlement of south Arabians in Eritrea around the middle of the last millennium marks the subsequent spread of this sort of commercial consequence to the Horn of Africa. In the third or second millennia B. C., a state such as Egypt might colonize areas outside its heartland, such as Nubia. But this colonization comprised military outposts and ethnic settlements that were planted to hold the contiguous territories of a land empire, not distant localities far separated from the home country.
2. All of the following groups are mentioned in paragraph 2 as establishing distant trading outposts in the last millennium B. C. EXCEPT
A. the Greeks
B. the Egyptians
C. the Phoenicians
D. the south Arabians
解题步骤
这道排除题中,在做题之前就要先读清楚题干的内容。
在题干中提到:以下都是last millennium B.C. 这个时间建立长途贸易点的群体除了,也就是在选项中哪一个群体不属于last millennium B.C.这个时间段建立长途贸易点。
此处题干出现了时间点,因此在做排除的时候就得注意好哪个群体不属于这个时间点内了。
按照排除题的做题顺序,先读选项可以看到选项中提到四个群体:希腊人,埃及人,腓尼基人和南阿拉伯人。带着选项回读原文的时候,这四群人都在段落中有提及。
但若仔细注意时间点的话,我们会看到,顺着段落读下来,在第二句The Phoenician settlements in the central and western Mediterranean, such as Carthage, and the slightly later establishment of Greek colonies are early examples, while the settlement of south Arabians in Eritrea around the middle of the last millennium marks the subsequent spread of this sort of commercial consequence to the Horn of Africa.中,腓尼基人,希腊人,南阿拉伯人三个顺次并列出现,并且提到这些群体都是在around the middle of the last millennium这个时间点出现的。也就是属于题干中的the last millennium B.C.
再往后读就是In the third or second millennia B. C., a state such as Egypt might colonize areas outside its heartland, such as Nubia.该句出现了埃及人,但是时间是he third or second millennia B. C.,因此希腊人不属于the last millennium B.C.,也就被选出来了。
由此,我们可以看到,这道普通的排除题实则在考察我们对题干时间点的把握。如果在做题的时候没有读懂这个考点,也就容易陷入纠结,从而浪费时间,甚至做错这道题。
