对于还没有做过试题的刚刚开始备考的24考研的同学,并不了解考研英语阅读是如何考察同学们的英语阅读能力的。其实,考研英语阅读一共二十道题,而这二十道题又可以分为六种题型,今天就带同学们初步的了解一下这六类题型,学会题型的分类和识别,学会之后我们才能进一步学习各个题型的解题方法。
1. 主旨大意题
25. What would be the best title for the text? (2010 Text1)
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? (2019 Text3)
25. What is the subject of the text? (2013 Text1)
30. Which of the following would be the subject of the text? (2010 Text2)
35. Which of the following is the text mainly about?(2013 Text3)
30. In this text, the author mainly discusses ______. (2014 Text2)
顾名思义,主旨大意题就是对整篇文章的主旨要义进行考察,以上都是试题中摘选而出的,进一步可以分为标题类,关键词title,和主旨类,关键词subject/main idea/mainly about。
其次,很重要的一点就是,主旨大意题只在“最后一题”的位置出现。
2. 段落推断题
25. What can we infer from the X paragraph? (2005 Text1)
32. It can be inferred from Paragraph X that .(2017 Text 3)
33. The author argues in Paragraph X that .(2018 Text 3)
29. We can conclude from the X paragraph that .(2007 Text 2)
29. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph X?(2013 Text 2)
21. Which of the following is true according to the author?(2008 Text 1)
39. Which of the following is true according to the text?(2008 Text 4)
22. Which of the following best represents the author’s view?(2018 Text 1)
以上这些都是段落推断题的问法,看起来多种多样,但是其实只要把握两个特点就可以轻松识别,即“段落”和“干净”。“段落”指的是你读完题干只能定位到段落而无法具体定位到某一句话。“干净”指的是题干中没有和文章内容相关的细节信息。
3. 例证题
24. The author mentions the study by Catalyst to illustrate______. (2020 text1)
28. Redesky cites the “still face experiment”to show that______. (2017 text2)
39. The story of John Dane shows that less well-educated New Englanders were often______.(2009 text 4)
39. The example of the unions in Wisconsin shows that unions______. (2012 text 4)
例证题的问法通常是“作者提及某个XX例子是为了证明.....”,或者“某个XX例子被作者提及是为了证明.....”,例证题的识别关键词有很多,表示例子的study,research,example,表示提及的mention,use,cite,quota和表示证明的show,demonstrate,illustrate。
4. 词义句意题
(2017年 text 1)
23. The word “expedited” (Para. 5) is closest in meaning to ______.
识别很简单,标志就是“”和mean,meaning。问某个单词、词组或者句子的含义。
5. 态度题
(英一2017年 text 4)
40. The author’s attitude toward the court’s ruling is ______.
[A] sarcastic
[B] tolerant
[C] skeptical
[D] supportive
识别同样简单,关键词就是attitude,或者观察四个选项是很明显的表示态度的四个词语。
6. 细节题
(2008年 text 3)
32. Which of the following plays a key role in body growth according to the text?
细节题其实是常见的一类题目,在识别是没有特殊的规律和关键词,我们只需要掌握以上五种其他题型的识别,用排除法即可识别细节题。细节题其实就是对文章细节信息的考察,考察同学们理解信息和提取信息的能力。
