雅思阅读段落标题解题技巧 段落标题题，又称List of Headings，是雅思阅读部分的常考题之一。此类题型主要考查考生段落的概括能力以及对全文整体的把握能力，这两样技能，除了考生要有良好的英文阅读功底之外，还需要培养阅读中的逻辑思维。因此它是雅思阅读考试难度颇大的一类题型。 段落标题题的常规思路是在段落中寻找主旨句然后与标题配对，主旨句一般为首尾句，含观点的宾语从句，带标志词比如表转折的句子等等。这些方法，坊间已讨论颇多，故不再此赘述。这里主要针对当前此类题型出现的一些新情况进行一下分析。从最新的出题形式来看，常规的解题思路似乎已不能应付，所以在这里有必要提出一些新的方法以飨读者。 趋势之一：总体把握 此类情况是按图索骥找到了段落中的主旨句却发现无济于事，因为选项没有包含主旨句信息的标题。然后考生转而去寻找段落的话题词（即重复的具体名词），结果仍一无所获，陷入绝望。其实答案所选标题里的任何单词都没有在段落中出现过，仅仅依靠定位自然是白费工夫。作为答案的标题非常隐蔽，是原文段落的高度概括，确实不太好找，但出题者在这里其实是考查考生对作者写作思路的把握，标题超越了段落的具体内容。在阅读时，考生不仅要知道这段讲了什么，更要清楚这一段在全文所起什么作用。换言之，读文章时，脑子里一
定要有一条贯穿始终的逻辑主线。而不能像以往那样见木不见林，单句阅读代替整体阅读的做法再也行不通了。 解题策略 虽然段落标题题可以采用边做题边看文章的做法，但我认为鉴于目前出现的新情况，推荐先浏览一遍文章，然后开始做题的方式。浏览的时间必须控制在五分钟内，浏览的目的主要有这样两个：1. 记录各段主题；2. 把握文章结构（如时间顺序，cause-effect-solution 顺序，论证式等等）。读完一遍之后，再回去做题，仿佛高屋建瓴，感觉就完全不同了。做题时可先用常规的方法。如能找到主旨句，万不可生搬硬套，与选项牵强附会。一般说来，只有主旨句与选项存在替换改写关系，才能证明是正确答案。若无法替换或找不到主旨句时，可先搁臵不做，待其余段落基本选定之后，再对未选标题进行比较排除，最后搞定。这是一整套的做题步骤，下面以实例辅之。 请看剑5 P66。此题中B，D，F三段较为难选。但分析文章后我们发现，这篇文章是描述一种现象的说明文。此类题材的文章，通常先会针对现象进行一番介绍，然后分析其产生的原因，引发的后果以及解决措施等。由此可见，F段最为明显，因为此段为全文的末段，通常讲解决方法或展望未来，并根据第一句According to Siegel, international environmental organizations are beginning to pay closer attention to the region…可知这段不是探讨消失的三角洲本身，而是在讲人们的行动，所以很明显选viii，因为所有选项里只有这个和人为的东西有关。然后看D段，也找不到主旨句，
雅思阅读技巧赵曙明 (华师7分精品班) 一．雅思阅读猜词常用词缀（在我的信箱里） 常用前缀（Pr efixes）: a-, an- not, without, hackin ultra- beyond, excessive, extreme 常用词根（Stems）: -anthro-, -anthropo- man -metr-, -meter- measure -morph- form -pathy- feeling, suffering 常用后缀（Suffixes）: ---phobia , ---mania , scope, ----cide 二．雅思阅读技巧篇 第1节寻找3种语言重现 同其他考试的阅读部分相比，雅思考试阅读部分最大的特点是文章篇幅长。考生要在 一个小时内完成8种类型共计40道题目(这个要求近乎苛刻)。因此，阅读目的就从单纯的“信息获取’’转变成”寻找答案”。在这个过程中，原文涉及的大部分细节内容对于完成题目是无意义的，无需字斟句酌。只有在阅读中准确把握题干的关键词，才能区分哪些字句与题目(答题点)有关。 所谓“关键词’’是指题干中的核心词或者决定答案性质或位置的词。典型的关键词是 句子的主干、人名、地名、时间、数字和生词。由于它们会在原文重现，因此产生了一种答 题方法：回原文找关键词。这往往给考生一种印象：只要在题干中划出关键词就一定能找到原词。那么关键词一定会“原型”重现吗?请看下面这道判断题： Example: While it is acknowledged for many years that an increasing number of animals are bound to become extinct，it is only recently that the problem has been addressed by politicians． 题目: We have known for along time that more species of animals will disappear．(判断题) AA语言重现 关键词在原文中以原词形式出现。AA语言重现在试题中占的比例最大，也是最简单的 一类考法。它以特殊关键词为主，包括人名、地名、时间、数字和生词。 Example: At precisely 4:20 am on Friday the 24th of September 1993 it was announced that Sydney had beaten five other competing cities around the world，and Australians everywhere，not only Sydney-siders，were justifiably proud of the result．But，if Sydney had lost the bid，would the taxpayers of NESW and of Australia have approved of government's spending millions of dollars in a failed and costly exercise? 题目：How many cities were competing in 1993 for the right to hold the 2000 Games? (简答题) AB语言重现 定义：关键词A在原文中以同义词B的形式出现。AB语言重现题考察考生的单词量，主要凭理解力去定位。 Sea fishing grew rapidly in the decades after the Second World War. Mechanisation increased the fishermen's catch in traditional grounds and then carried them to distant waters for more. 题目: Technological developments contributed to the higher fish catches after the Second World War. ( 判断题) 关系重现 定义：所谓“关系重现”是把定位对象从“词”上升到“句子结构”，从而越过生词造成的阅读障碍。这是最关键的一类语言重现，是阅读技巧的完美体现。 例：Paper is also biodegradable, so it does not pose as much threat to the environment when it is discarded.
高中英语阅读理解中的猜词技巧 Teaching Design Date: 2014—11—15 Topic: How to guess unknown words and expressions in reading comprehension. Students: Class 4 Grade 3 Teacher: Lai Ruiwen 一教学分析 1.教学内容简述 该课是一堂专项阅读训练课，具体介绍在高中英语阅读理解中的猜词技巧。“猜测词句意义”题型在高考阅读中占有一定的份量，每年的高考题中有2-3题，也就是每篇阅读基本上有1题，占了一定的份量。而我们学生在这方面的技能显得薄弱，猜词能力比较差，猜词没有具 体的系统的方法，因此，针对此题型的训练就显得很有必要。在必要时，做些语法分析， 通过词与词的关系，确定其词性；有时根据常识和生活经验或构词法知识，完全可以对那些从未见过的生词的词义作出正确的推测。做这种题时，特别要注意的是，对于那些我们 熟悉的词千万不要妄自、草率下结论，一定要结合上下文判断它在文中的意思。 2 教学对象分析 高三的学生到了高三下学期，积累了一定的词汇量，具备了一定的语篇分析能力，通过一定的练习，掌握了一些阅读理解解题技巧，但是学生普遍基础薄弱，句子分析能力差，不知道 联系上下文，阅读能力实属一般，很多同学甚至都是凭感觉在做题，并无系统的解题方法。 因而，希望通过此节课使学生的阅读理解能力有所提高。 二．教学目标分析 1.

高考英语阅读理解的猜词技巧 猜测词义，是指在阅读过程中根据对语篇提供的信息、行文逻辑、背景知识及语言结构等的综合理解去猜测或推断某个生词、难词、关键词的词义。英语词语的意义非常丰富，语境不同，词义也就不同。所以解决此类题目要掌握一定的猜词策略。 I.根据上下文语境进行猜测 任何一篇文章中的句子在内容上都不是绝对孤立的，都跟句子所在的段落及整篇文章有关。利用上下文提供的情景和线索，进行合乎逻辑的综合分析而推测词义，是阅读过程中的一大关键，也是高考的热点。如： 例1.(2002年全国卷，B篇)“Organic produce is always better，”Gold said，“The food is free of pesticides(农药)，and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally(本地)grown and seasonal，so it is more tasty.”Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend，and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business 62.What is the meaning of “the organic trend”as the words are used in the text？ A.growing interest in organic food B.better quality of organic food C.rising market for organic food D.higher prices of organic food 例2.(2003年全国卷,C篇)Fermat's Last Theorem(定理).First put forward by the French mathematician Pierrede Fermat in the seventeenth century，the theorem had baffled and beaten the finest mathematical minds，including a French woman scientist who made a major advance in working out the problem，and who had to dress like a man in order to be able to study at the Ecole Polytechnique. 65.Which of the following best exp lains the meaning of the word “baffle” as used in the text？ A.To encourage people to raise questions. B.To cause difficulty in understanding. C.To provide a person with an explanation. D.To limit people's imagination. 例3.If he thinks he can invite me out, he is all wet. I don’t like to be with him. A. drunk B. sweating C. happy D. mistaken 练习：1.A deaf and dump guy went into a hardware store to ask for some nails. 2. The climate of the west coast is the most moderate in Canada, summers are cool and fairly dry and winters are mild, cloudy and wet. Even in mid-winter, the temperature is usually above freezing. 3. All the houses in the city collapsed during the earthquake. 4. For people who live within a stone’s throw from the office to be late to work is unforgivable. 5. The conflagration was so fierce that with just a few second one could see towering flames where the house had stood and the smoke which filled the sky could be seen for miles and miles. （二）根据定义或解释猜测词义 有些阅读文章，尤其是新闻报导及科普类文章中的有些生词，往往在其后有对该词进行解释说明性的短语或句子，如to be, that is , mean, stand for, namely, to refer to, to mean ,in other
大学英语四六级阅读猜词技巧解读 在英语学习中，我们自然会遇到许多生词。这时，许多人立即翻阅字典，查找词义。其实，这种做法是不科学的。它不但费时费力，而且影响阅读速度。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落有着互相制约的关系。我们可以利用语境(各种已知信息)推测、判断某些生词的词义。猜测词义时，可利用以下线索：一、针对性解释针对性解释是作者为了更好的表达思想，在文章中对一些重要的概念、难懂的术语或词汇等所作的解释。这些解释提供的信息具有明确的针对性，利用它们猜词义比较容易。1、根据定义猜测词义如果生词是句子或段落所解释的定义，理解句子或段落本身就是推断词义。【例一】anthropology is the scientific study of man.由定义可知，anthropology就是"研究人类的科学"。【例二】In slang the term "jam" constitutes a state of being in which a person finds himself or herself in a difficult situation.同样，从上下文的定义可知jam一词在俚语中的意思是"困境"。定义句的谓语动词多为：be， mean， deal with， be considered， to be， refer to， be called， be known as， define， represent， signify，constitute等。2、根据复述猜测词义虽然复述不如定义那样严谨、详细，但是提供的信息足以使阅读者猜出生词词义。复述部分可以适当词、短语或是从句。1)同位语【例一】Semantics， the study of the meaning of words， is necessary if you are to speak and read intelligently.
