審題技巧
恰當(dāng)?shù)膶忣}可以對(duì)解題產(chǎn)生事半功倍的效果。
決定審題的三大要素——詞匯量、審題速度、審題的技巧。
審題的技巧主要有:
1.劃重點(diǎn):發(fā)現(xiàn)重合部分但不勾畫(huà),只標(biāo)注區(qū)別點(diǎn)和否定詞。
例1:2000年6月真題
11.[A]To find out whether they take music lessons in their spare time.
[B]To find out whether they can name four different musical instruments.
[C]To find out whether they enjoy playing musical instruments in school.
[D]To find out whether they differ in preference for musical instruments.
解析:各選項(xiàng)中To find out whether they重合,均不畫(huà)出。選項(xiàng)B、C、D中 musical instruments重合,不畫(huà)。只標(biāo)記區(qū)別點(diǎn)如下:
11.[A]To find out whether they take music lessons in their spare time.
[B]To find out whether they can name four different musical instruments.
[C]To find out whether they enjoy playing musical instruments in school.
[D]To find out whether they differ in preference for musical instruments.
例2:2007年6月真題
20.[A]It can reduce the number of passenger complaints.
[B]It can make air travel more entertaining.
[C]It can cut down the expenses for air travel.
[D]It can lessen the discomfort caused by air travel.
解析:選項(xiàng)B、C、D中air travel多次重合,不畫(huà),A項(xiàng)中passenger為air travel的行為主體,不畫(huà);四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均有can,說(shuō)明該題主要講述it的作用和功能。標(biāo)記區(qū)別點(diǎn)如下:
20.[A]It can reduce the number of passenger complaints.
[B]It can make air travel more entertaining.
[C]It can cut down the expenses for air travel.
[D]It can lessen the discomfort caused by air travel.
2.內(nèi)容分類(lèi):
例1:1999年1月真題
18.[A]It doesn't need to be refueled.
[B]It will use solar energy as fuel.
[C]It will be driven by electrical power.
[D]It will be more suitable for long distance travel.
19.[A]Passengers in the car may be seated facing one another.
[B]The front seats will face forward and the back seats backward.
[C]Special seats will be designed for children.
[D]More seats will be added.
解析:18題通過(guò)A項(xiàng)中的refueled,B項(xiàng)中的solar energy及fuel,C項(xiàng)中的electrical power可判斷出這道題很可能談?wù)摰氖枪┠堋?9題通過(guò)四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都有seat可以判斷講的是座位的話題。結(jié)合兩道題的選項(xiàng)可判斷本篇文章很可能談?wù)撥?chē)的話題。
例2:2000年1月真題
12.[A]He sold fast food.[B]He raised dogs.
[C]He was a cook.[D]He was a cartoonist.
解析:很明顯,該題問(wèn)的是這位男士的職業(yè)。
例3:2000年1月真題
17.[A]To look for a different lifestyle.[B]To enjoy themselves.
[C]For adventure.[D]For education.
解析:不定式經(jīng)常表示目的或原因,for也表目的或原因。所以這道題很可能問(wèn)某事發(fā)生的目的或原因。
3.選項(xiàng)邏輯:
1)若四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中有兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)探討同一話題,只是在細(xì)節(jié)點(diǎn)出現(xiàn)不同,則答案可能在這兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)中產(chǎn)生。
2)若四個(gè)選項(xiàng)是針對(duì)某一話題的態(tài)度評(píng)價(jià),其中兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)針對(duì)同一主題的態(tài)度截然不同,如一正一反,則答案可能在這兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)中產(chǎn)生。
3)若四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中有兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)經(jīng)過(guò)同義轉(zhuǎn)換后,不僅說(shuō)的是同一話題,而且表達(dá)意思也相同,則這兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)均不選。
例1:2007年6月真題
12.[A]He enjoys finding fault with exams.
[B]He is sure of his success in the exam.
[C]He doesn't know if he can do well in the exam.
[D]He used to get straight A's in the exams he took.
解析:選項(xiàng)B和選項(xiàng)C意思截然相反,正確答案很可能在這兩項(xiàng)中產(chǎn)生。
原文:W:I've never seen you have such confidence before in the exam!
M:It's more than confidence!Right now I felt that if I got less than an A,it will be the fault of the exam itself.
Q:What does the man mean?
答案:B
例2:2006年12月23日真題
9.[A]It's absurd.[B]It's tedious.
[C]It's understandable.[D]It's justifiable.
解析:選項(xiàng)A和選項(xiàng)C意思截然相反,正確答案很可能在這兩項(xiàng)中產(chǎn)生。
原文:M:What do you think of people suing McDonald's for making them fat?
W:Well.Its food doesn't make you fat,but eating too much of it does.How about chocolate and ice cream? Are they all responsible? It's silly!

答案:A
例3:1999年1月真題
9.[A]It's quite normal.[B]It's too high.
[C]It's cheap indeed.[D]It could be cheaper.
解析:若選B,價(jià)格太高,那么D就不能算是錯(cuò)的,所以B、D經(jīng)同義替換后成為近似相同的選項(xiàng),都不對(duì)。答案更可能是A或C。加上B、D均說(shuō)價(jià)格非正常,所以B、C、D是同一話題的不同分支,所以答案更可能是選項(xiàng)C。
原文:W:John told me he had got a second?hand car.Do you know how much he paid for it?
M:Well,he said he paid 800 dollars for it.I think he got a real bargain.
Q:What does the man think of the price of the car?
答案:C
例4:2002年1月真題
8.[A]By going on a diet.[B]By having fewer meals.
[C]By doing physical exercise.[D]By eating fruit and vegetables.
解析:此題應(yīng)該提問(wèn)How(對(duì)應(yīng)by),其中A說(shuō)到節(jié)食,而B(niǎo)“少吃幾頓飯”和D“吃蔬菜水果”都是對(duì)選項(xiàng)A的同義替換和轉(zhuǎn)述,所以答案很可能是C。
原文:W:When I go on a diet,I eat only fruit,and that takes off weight quickly.
M:I prefer to eat whatever I want,and then run regularly to lose weight.
Q:How does the man control his weight?
答案:C
