一、考点词的类型及判断技巧
1. 反义考点词
如果一个重心部位的词有反义词,那么很有可能这个词就是考点词,需要去判断。比如:
例1 Q: Environmentalists take a pessimistic view of the world for a number of reasons。
原文:For many environmentalists, the world seems to be getting worse.
在这个例子中,形容词pessimistic因为有反义词optimistic,故这个词就是本题的考点词。与原文相对照,发现pessimistic对应的词是seems to be getting worse,与原文一致,因此答案选YES。
例2 Q: Current thinking on humour has largely ignored Aristotles view on the subject。
原文:But most modern humour theorists have settled on some version of Aristotles belief that
在本题中,考点词是位于重心部位的谓语动词ignore,因为其有反义词didnt ignore。正好与原文中的settle on相对应,故此题选FALSE。
2. 数字数量考点词
数字数量往往是作者想要强调的重点,因此也常常成为考点。但是有一点要提醒考生注意的是,数字考点不是单独存在的,往往是要和其修饰的名词合在一起构成考点词的。我们来看以下例题:
例3 Q: The 1990 survey related to 550,000 consultations with alternative therapies。
原文:The 550,000 consultations with alternative therapies
本题答案YES,非常容易判断,因为考点词是550,000,正好在原文中也出现了。但是要提醒考生的是,这道题目并不是仅仅根据两个数字对应就做出来的,数字修饰的概念 consultations with alternative therapies 同时也是考点词,只不过这里恰好一致罢了。
例4 Q: The 1993 Sydney survey involved 289 patients who visited alternative therapists for acupuncture treatments。
原文:Dr Laver and his colleagues published a survey of 289 Sydney people who attended eight alternative therapies practices in Sydney. These practices offered a wide range of alternative therapies from 25 therapists.
这道题目很容易选成YES,因为289在原文中和题目中都出现了。但是需要提醒考生的是,不能光看数字考点,还要看一下数字修饰的概念是否一致。在本题中,题目中289人的概念是参加针灸疗法的病人,而原文中的是各种各样的疗法,因为可以肯定289人不是都参加针灸疗法的,因为即便其中包括针灸,289个病人一定还有参加其它疗法的。故本题选NO。
3. 绝对考点词
绝对考点词指的是all, must, every等语气绝对的限定词。这类考点往往因为与原文中所述事实矛盾而选FALSE/NO的答案。但是也有很多例外,考生不应不看原文就直接选出答案。
