雅思阅读判断题的判断标准探讨(上)

　　雅思学术类考试作为准备出国学习的一项成绩，在很多学子的出国路上造成了不小的障碍。而阅读部分一大难点是其变化多端、纷繁复杂的题型。这些题型粗粗的算来可以分为九大类：标题对应题、真假判断题、总结题、简答题、句子完成题、图表填空题、配对题、选择题、流程图题。在这些题型当中，真假判断题占到了将近50%。所以判断题做得好坏直接决定了考生在阅读上的成绩。

　　在是非无判断题的考试中,考生要对试卷上所列出的一系列命题进行判断。如果这些陈述句是反映观点或者态度的，那么考生的任务就是判断这些句子是否和作者的观点一致。在这种情况下,答案的选择是YES,NO或者是NOT GIVEN。如果这些陈述句表述的内容是有关事实信息,那么考生就要判断这些句子是否和文中的信息一致。在这种情况下,答案的选择是TRUE,FALSE或者是NOT GIVEN。这里要特别说明的是在考试中YES,NO,NOT GIVEN和TRUE,FALSE,NOT GIVEN只是考试形式的区别,在判断方式上并没有本质区别。

　　那么，我们需要拿什么标准来判断我们的命题是否正确呢?现在有很多不同的说法，在多年的教学经验的基础上，我总结出了这样的标准：

　　TRUE或YES：所需判断的陈述句中所有的考点词汇和原文中的表达完全对应。

　　FALSE或NO：所需判断的陈述句中至少有一个考点词汇和原文中的表达想矛盾。

　　NOT GIVEN：所需判断的陈述句中在没有错误的前提之下，至少有一个考点词汇文章没有提到相关内容。

　　用表格的形式表述如下：

　　下面结合剑桥雅思4上面的具体题目来讲解一下我的判断标准。

　　首先来解释TRUE/YES的标准：所需判断的陈述句中所有的考点词汇和原文中的表达完全对应。从表述中可以看出，正确的标准是唯一性的，只有在全部考点都正确的情况下，该命题才能被判断为TRUE/YES。

　　Academic Test 1

　　Reading Passage 1

　　3.

　　题干：It has been suggested that children hold mistaken views about the pure science that they study at school.

　　原文：Many studies have shown that children harbour misconceptions about pure science, curriculum science.

　　分析：此题答案为TRUE。从两个句子表达中不难看出，两句话都是针对children这同一对象，并且在观点陈述中hold对应harbour都作动词，表示包含，拥有, mistaken views对应misconceptions,表示错误的概念， that they study at school对应curriculum science，在这里curriculum做名词，表示学校课程的意思。

　　4.

　　题干：The fact that childrens ideas about science form part of a larger framework of ideas means that it is easier to change them.

　　原文：These misconceptions do not remain isolated but become incorporated into a multifaceted, but organised, conceptual framework, making it and the component ideas, some of which are erroneous, more robust but also accessible to modification,

　　分析：虽然原文是一个长难句，但从表达意思的主体上来看并没有太大的改变。childrens ideas about science对应these misconceptions，都指的儿童对于科学的认识，只不过文章中表达为错误的概念，form part of a larger framework of ideas对应do not remain isolated but become incorporated into a multifaceted, but organised, conceptual framework，都表达了儿童的观点形成了一个大的框架的观点，区别就在于文章对这个框架作了一些详细的描述，means that it is easier to change them对应making it and the component ideas, some of which are erroneous, more robust but also accessible to modification，在这里，考点的对应集中在了easier 正好对应了文章中的more accessible, to change them对应了modification.

　　7.

　　题干：The study reported here follows on from a series of studies that have looked at childrens understanding of rainforests.

　　原文：These observations are generally consistent with our previous studies of pupils views about the use and conservation of rainforest...

　　分析：在这里，关键的考点对应集中在了follows on from对应了consistent，都表示一致的意思，a series of studies that have looked at childrens understanding of rainforests对应了our previous studies of pupils views about the use and conservation of rainforest，同样表示了之前已经研究过的儿童对于热带雨林的观点。

　　Academic Test 3

　　Reading Passage 1

　　12

　　题干：The children have to pay back slightly more money than they borrowed.

　　原文：All S.K.I programs have charged interest on the loans...generally the rates have been modest

　　分析：题干中表达the children have to pay back... more money than they borrowed对应文章中All S.K.I programs have charged interest on the loans，全部计划都要收利息，所以儿童必须还钱，并且有了利息的存在，所以儿童要还比他借的钱多的一部分的钱;并且，slightly对应了modest, generally the rates have been modest，利率不多，并且比银行的要低，所以只高出了一点点。

　　Academic Test 4

　　Reading Passage 1

　　1.

　　题干：Modern official athletic records date from about 1900.

　　原文：Since the early years of the twentieth century, when the International Athletic Federation began keeping records......

　　分析：about 1900对应the early years of the twentieth century，Modern official athletic records date from对应when the International Athletic Federation began keeping records

　　6.

　　题干：The growing international importance of athletics means that gifted athletes can be recognised at a younger age.

　　原文：Over the past century,...but with increasing global participation in athletic-----and greater rewards to tempt athletes-----it is more likely that individuals possessing the unique complement of genes for athletic performance can be identified early.

　　分析：The growing international importance of athletics对应with increasing global participation in athletic-----and greater rewards to tempt athletes, gifted athletes对应individuals possessing the unique complement of genes for athletic performance，recognised at a younger age对应more likely...can be identified early.

　　从这些例子中可以看出，所有被判断为正确的陈述表达无一例外的都和文章中的考点表达存在一一对应的关系。

　　接下来，来看看FALSE / NO的判断标准：所需判断的陈述句中至少有一个考点词汇和原文中的表达想矛盾。无论其他的考点是什么结论，只需要其中有一个考点是错误的，那么这个命题的答案就是错误的。
