2016年学位英语阅读理解解题技巧之巧妙绕开生词
我们这里所说的巧妙绕开生词的方法和上面分析文章结构特点的思路是统一的,也就是说,只要我们从总体上把握了文章,不用认识每一个单词也能照样理解整篇文章。
1、英语文章中不是所有的词的功能都是同等的,有些词担负着传达主要信息的功能,而有些词主要起语法作用或者它所传达的信息和下文的其他信息没有联系。这类词有:表示人名,地名,机构名等专有名词。遇到这些词,只要我们能辨认出它是专有名词,就能理解文章而不必知道它的意思。比如在下面的句子中:"In fact", says David Dinges, a sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine,"there\'s even a prohibition against admitting we need sleep." 两个引号之间的部分就不必去管它。类似的还有: " We have to totally change our attitude toward napping," says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University,the godfather of sleep research.
2、我们不用弄清上面某些部分的原因是,它们的后面往往有一个同位语来解释说明它们的意思。这就引起了我们不用弄懂所有单词意思的第二个理由。也就是说如果我们对文章中的某一个单词不熟悉,我们还可以根据统一篇文章中的其他信息来帮助判断。这类信息有:同位语、下定义、解释、举例、同义词、反义词、上下义词以及标点符号(如破折号、冒号都表示解释和说明)等。

提高阅读效率
1.以下词组提示下文所涉及的重要信息:
The main / important point / conclusion / reason….
The point to note here…
2.以下词组提示了下文的结构框架:
There are three major reasons…
3.but 和 however表示对比,常常用来提示重要信息,例如:
The rising birth rate is not due to increased fertility, but to a sharp decline in the death rate.
4.在文中提问可以突出问题后的答案,提示读者答案中有重要信息,例如:
Why is a piped water supply so important? Disease due to contaminated water is a common cause of death in childhood.
5.有时,为了保证读者完全理解自己的观点,会在文中反复提出自己的观点,例如:
Death control can be achieved autonomously. In other words, the death rate can be cut without anything else changing.
6.文章的结论通常是非常重要的,因此,读者要在文中寻找提示结论的“信号词”,例如:
Thereforethe result
In conclusionwe can conclude
One of the primary conclusions
7.举例是为了帮助读者理解某一个观点,因此,文中的例子不是浏览文章时的重要信息。在阅读过程中,以下词组提示读者下文是举例部分信息。
For example/instancelike
Such asthese include
To illustrateamong these are
有时,也会用破折号或括号来提示举例信息,例如:
The developing countries are dependent on cash crops – sugar, coffee, cacao, cotton.
Precipitating/violent/unexpected factors are those which reduce the food supply (droughts, floods, wars, epidemics)…
在段落浏览时,读者在看到信号词后,应不断对下文信息作出相应的判断,例如:
The main reason for (提示:下文信息重要) the reduction in the death rate in the developing world has been improved public health measures. For example,
Sri Lanka the death rate was halved over ten years by spraying the mosquitoes which carry malaria.
Why (提示:问题的答案中有读者应该关注的重点) is it so easy to cut the death rate in this way and yet so hard to reduce the birth rate? One answer (提示:这只是众多答案中的一种,并不是最重要的。) is that public health measures can be very cheap. Anti-malarial spraying is inexpensive. But this is not the important point (提示:but后面的是非常重要的信息). For birth control programmes to be successful, a change in attitude is required, whereas death control can be achieved autonomously. In other words, (提示:这里是想要强调的重要信息) the death rate can be cut without anything else changing.
