准确把握SAT填空题的句子结构 SAT填空题从总体难度上来说是比较简单的,相比于GRE填空,逻辑关系简单,所以通过单一的解题方法,可以迅速搞定。
在任何的阅读类考试中,句子结构的把握能力都是被考察的重点,SAT也不例外。ETS在SAT句子填空题的命题过程中会刻意地设置一些句子结构上的障碍,比如使用一些插入结构来分割句子成分等,这些障碍会干扰考生解题的思路,使很多考生在解题过程中要么对句子的结构不能准确把握,要么忽略了传递核心信息的主干结构,导致在解答句子填空题目时因句子读不懂而使解题速度和准确率同时受到了影响。
快速把握句子结构最简单和有效的方法就是获取句子主干,而忽略一些附加成分,比如插入语、定语、同位语等,因为句子的核心信息一般会通过句子的主干成分来传递,而句子填空中与所填内容相关的大多是句子要体现的核心信息。因此,通过句子主干来分析空格所填的内容不失为一种较为有效的方法。请看以下示例:
例1:A judicious biography must be ____ representation that depicts both the strengthens and the weaknesses of the subject, avoiding the two extremes of ____ and indictment.
A. a polarized ... vindication
B. an imaginative ...discernment
C. a holistic ...censure
D. a complimentary ...animosity
E. an equitable ... eulogy
在例1中,第一个空格要填宾语的修饰语,根据主干要求,宾语少修饰语,主语的修饰语就是线索。我们只要在五个选项中挑出与judicious 同义的词即可。Polarized 使成两极化;imaginative 想象的;holistic 全盘的;complimentary 称赞的; equitable 相等的。因此,我们很快就能确定答案为E.
例2:The professors presentation was both ___ and ___ : though brief, instructive.
A. verbose ... mundane
B. concise ... elaborate
C. comprehensive ... edifying
D. succinct ... enlightening
E. provocative ... technical
在例2中,显然第一个空格要填的词应该是brief(简单的)的同义词;而第二个空格要填的是instructive(有启发性的)的同义词。通过分析我们得知能填到第一个空格中选项是B 和D;而能填到第二个空格中的选项是C 和D。取其交集,答案就是D。通过此题我们知道了以后再碰到类似结构的题,只需要看与空格本身相关的词就可以了,这样势必会大大提高做题的速度。
