托福阅读小心表达逻辑关系的词句

摘要:托福阅读中有很多地方都是需要大家尤其小心的,可能是托福阅读文章中的一个句子或者是一个词,它们最后都有可能成为解答托福阅读试题的关键,下面就来看看具体情况。

如果托福阅读文章中一句话与另一句话存在转折关系,通常要有表示转折的逻辑关系词,而且一般情况下语义重心都是转折后的内容。我们在分析句子间的转折关系前,要明确表示转折的逻辑词都有哪些。它们通常包括but ,yet ,however ,whereas ,on the contrary, contrary to ,in contrast等。当托福阅读修辞目的题中的定位句与前文存在转折关系时,通常作者的意图是反驳前文的某种观点或者否定前文的内容。

下面举两个例子进行具体分析

例1:In Europe, before the introduction of the mechanical clock, people told time by sun (using, for example, shadow sticks or sun dials) and water clocks. Sun clocks worked, of course, only on clear days; water clocks misbehaved when the temperature fell toward freezing, to say nothing of long-run drift as the result of sedimentation and clogging. Both these devices worked well in sunny climates; but in northern Europe the sun may be hidden by clouds for weeks at a time, while temperatures vary not only seasonally but from day to night.

Why does the author provide the information that ”in northern Europe the sun may be hidden by clouds for weeks at a time, while temperatur es vary not only seasonally but from day to night”?

To emphasize the variety of environments in which people used sun and water

clocks to tell time

To illustrate the disadvantage of sun and water clocks

To provide an example of an area where water clocks have an advantage over

sun clocks

To counter the claim that sun and water clocks were used all over Europe

托福阅读试题解析:

(1) 通过题干定位到文中最后一句话中but的后面,but一词表明后面的内容是与前面是转折关系,后面说:但是在北欧,太阳可能一下被乌云遮住几个星期,同时气温也不仅只随着季节变化,早晚也有温差。

(2) 定位句之前有转折,通常都是对前文的否定,所以看一下but前说了什么以明确否定的内容。前面说这两个设备在晴天时都能很好地工作。由此可以判断否定的对象应该就是这两个设备。

(3) 到底是哪两个设备呢? these提示我们要向前找,所以看一下上一句话,发现其中有个分号,可能分号前后各说一种设备。发现前面说的是太阳钟,后面说的是水钟,两个设备明确了。

(4) 结合这两句话,可以看出but后逗号前的内容正是对太阳钟的否定,逗号后面的内容正是对水钟的否定。因此答案为含有负面信息的B项。

例2:The undisputed pre-Columbian presence in Oceania of the sweet potato, which is a New World domesticate, has sometimes been used to support Heyerdahl’s “American Indians in the Pacific” theories. However, this is one plant out of a long list of Southeast Asian domesticates. As Patrick Kirch, an American anthropologist, points out, rather than being brought by rafting South Americans, sweet potatoes might just have easily been brought back by returning Polynesian navigators who could have reached the west coast of South America.

Why d oes the author mention the views of “Patrick Kirch”?(3)

To present evidence in favor of Heyerdahl’s idea about American Indians reaching Oceania

To emphasize the familiarity of Pacific islanders with crops from many different regions of the world

To indicate that supposed proof for Heyerdahl’s theory has an alternative explanation

To demonstrate that some of the same crops were cultivated in both South America and Oceania

解析:

(1) 题干问作者为什么提到PK这个人的观点。回到文中进行定位,发现最后的一整个长句说的就是PK的观点。提取一下主要信息点,PK的观点是:甘薯不是被南美洲人带来的,而可能仅仅是被到过南美的波利尼西亚人带回来的。

(2) 提到PK对甘薯来源的观点目的是什么呢?句首的as表示正像、正如,因此这句话与前面是一个顺承关系,前面说,但是这只是东南亚驯化的很多植物外的一种。句中的this提示我们还要向前看,并且句首的however表明后面的信息与前面是转折关系,而后一句话句首的as又表明与上一句话是顺承关系。由此判断出定位句与前文存在转折关系,所反驳的就应该是however之前的观点。

(3) 看however之前说了什么,这句话比较长,提取主要信息,主要说的是H的理论(太平洋岛上的人来源于美洲印第安)的证据是美洲驯化的甘薯出现在了大洋洲。

(4) 美洲印第安人也就是定位句中的南美州人,所以我们找到了however的转折点,前面说甘薯用来证明太平洋岛居民源于南美,后面说甘薯不是被南美洲人带来的,也就是说不能被用来证明太平洋岛居民源于南美。

(5) 综合以上分析,PK的观点就是为了说明之前支持H的理论的证据可能有误。所以,选择C项。

通过上面结合托福阅读试题和托福阅读文章段落的分析可以看出转折这种手法还是有很重要地位的,如果能提前发现这个手法那么对于大家理解托福阅读是很有帮助的。

破解托福阅读理解长难句

破解托福阅读理解长难句 托福阅读理解难,难在长难句。如何破解长难句,是做好托福阅读理解的关键一环。破解长难句通常采用方法是找准主谓宾, 去除定状补,抓住长难句特点进行庖丁解牛是破解托福阅读理解长难句的又一制胜法宝。托福阅读理解长难句有以下六大类型: 1、主语、宾语拉长一般来讲,汉语主语比较简短。相比之下,英语中主语一旦拉长,就会增加读者的理解难度。解决方法:有效分解主谓成分,断开之后各个击破。 例如:(1)The deserts, which already occupy approximately a fourth of the Earth’s land surface, have in recent decades been increasing at an alarming pace. (OG Practice 2) (2)The destruction caused by the volcanic explosion of Mount St. Helens, in the northwestern United States, for example, pales in comparison to the destruction caused by humans. 2、分词短语打头,句子呈现三段(或三段以上)的长句式分词短语(包括现在分词和过去分词)做状语,这一句式比较常见,读者阅读时由于要区分短语和主语之间的逻辑关系,所以理解上有难度。并且分词短语本身往往由于掺入了插入语成分,理解上就更为困难。解决方法:理清主动和被动关系。一般来说现在分词与主语之间是主动关系;而过去分词与主语之间是被动关系。 例如:Working of a century-old schoolhouse in the village of Marland, Pennsylvania, the Conservancy’s Bud Smith is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth environmental protection. ☆注意:介词短语位于句首类似分词短语形式。 例如:In order for the structure to achieve the size and strength necessary to meet its purpose, architecture employs methods of support that, because they are based on physical laws, have changed little since people first discovered them—even while building materials have changed dramatically. (TPO 14) 3、多个谓语动词连用简单句之所以简单是因为成分单一便于读者理解。而托福阅读理解中,出题人为增加阅读难度,就会把几个谓语动词放在一个句子当中。但是无论局势如何变化,英语句子本身就犹如一棵大树,只能有一个主干起支撑作用,其他起辅助作用。解决方法:遇到多个谓语动词连用情况要分清主句谓语动词和从句的谓语动词。剔除细枝末节之后,句子也就好理解了。 例如:The same thing happens to this day, though on a smaller scale, wherever a sediment-laden river or stream emerges from a mountain valley onto relatively flat land, dropping its load as the current slows: the water usually spreads out fanwise, depositing the sediment in the form of a smooth, fan-shaped slope. (TPO Ground Water)

2020年托福阅读长难句100句:后置定语从句.doc

2020 年托福阅读长难句100 句:后置定语从句 我们知道 一个句子的主干 ( 主谓宾 ) 相当于它的骨架,识别了主干相当于抓住 了句子的主要信息 ; 而句子的其他修饰、说明及补充的部分 ( 定状补同等 ) 则相当于句子的血肉,血肉中往往包含了大量的附加信息。很多时候这些附加的信息对整句的理解起着辅助、增强甚至不可或缺的作用。 教学中作者发现下面这个句子常常困扰一些语法功底不错的考生: The physicist rightly dreads preciseargument, since an argument that is convincing only if it is precise loses all its force if theassumptions on which it is based are slightly changed, whereas an argument thatis convincing though imprecise may well be stable under small perturbations ofits underlying assumptions. 本句 since 之前的部分含有标准的 S(The physicist)+V(dreads)+O(argument) 结构,而 since 之后明显应该是原因 状语 ( 从句 ) 的部分,所以句首的 SVO就是整句的主句。下面我们来仔 细分析 since 后面的部分: 第一行末尾的 that 紧跟 an argument 之后,显然做 an argument 的后置定语从句。 that is convincing 是一个完整的主系表结构, only if 则引导了这个定语从句自身的 ( 即小级别 ) 条件状语从句 it is precise (仍是一个完整的主系表结构); 接下来我们遇到了 loses ,since 到 loses 之间是两个主系表从句,有各自的系动词,于是 loses 不属于这两个从句,只能与 an argument 对应,这个点也可从单复数上佐证。 loses 与后面的 all its force 形成动宾结构,其中it指代前文的an argument;

托福阅读长难句解决方法解析.doc

托福阅读长难句解决方法解析 托福阅读长难句解决方法 首先:长句子。 A few art collectors Tames Bowdoin of Boston, William Byrd of Virginia, and the Aliens and Hamiltons of Philadelphia introduced European art traditions to those colonists privileged to visit their galleries,especially aspiring artists,and established in their respective communities the idea of the value of art and the need for institutions devoted to its encouragement. A few art collectors introduced European art traditions to those colonistsand established in their respective communities the idea and the need. 对于这样一个句子,大家要做的就是找到这个句子的核心主干(即主谓宾)注意后半部分嵌入了倒装句established in their respective communities the idea and the need,establish是及物动词,后面却加了介词in,说明此处有倒装,还原正常语序应是established the idea and the need in their respective communities。倒装出现的意义在于idea和need在原句中的后置定语(即蓝色划线部分)太长,为了防止头重脚轻。 在原句中,是有人名是并列的不知道大家有没有发现,也是本句主语art collectors的同位语。其中还有一部分是colonists的非谓语动词后置定语,还一个部分是插入语用来进一步解释art collectors。 综上所述,本句运用了多种语法结构(并列,倒装,同位语,后置定语,插入语)把主干部分分割得支离破碎,如果对这些语法结构不熟悉的同学肯定会一下子摸不着头脑。而如果能够尽最大努力把握其用法,那么对阅读的速度和正确率的提升都有很大帮助。 以上这个句子我们就可以这样翻译:几位艺术收藏家(此处省略几位艺术家名字)将欧洲艺术传统介绍给那些被特许参观他们画廊的殖民者,尤其是有抱负的艺术家们,并在他们各自的社区建立了艺术具有价值的观念和致力于鼓励其发展的机构的需要。 其次:长文章 新托福阅读的文章篇幅一般都是在700字以上,而这么长的文章主要就是由简单句和一些复杂的长难句组成,除了句子理解外,为了更好的解题考生还应该了解文章段落和文章结构。面对比较长的段落和文章,要在短时间内快速抓住重点信息,做对题目,那么对文章的行文套路要有非常清晰的把握。下面以一篇OG真题文章Nineteenth-Century Politics in the United States的段落为例来讲解。

托福阅读中四种常见逻辑关系

托福阅读中四种常见逻辑关系 第一种因果关系 因:because, because of, for, as, since, in that, on account of,with 果:so, so that, therefore, thereby, as a result, hence, thus,consequently, accordingly 因果关系除了传统意义上的显性因果表达词外,隐性的因果同样是不可忽略的一个重要部分。 隐性因果: A 导致(因-果):cause, reason, lead to, give rise to, result in, render, make, let, ask, support,push, stimulate, spark, spur, fuel, produce, be responsible for 如The increased pressures of expanding populations have led to the removal of woody plants sothat many cities and towns are surrounded by large areas completely lacking in trees and shrubs. 在这段话中,有lead to, 表示了导致的意思,即结果; 而so that 更进一步表示了后面的结果,所以可以充分判定这段话有因果关系的逻辑。 B 由…而来(果-因):result from, derive from, originate from, initiate from, stem from, beresponsive to, be attributable to 如“The extreme seriousness of desertification results from the vast areas of land and tremendousnumbers of people affected, as well as from the great difficulty of reversing or even slowing theprocess.” 在这段话中,根据result from可以推断出有因果关系,那如果是解释句子题时,选项中有因果关系就可以优先考虑。 C 反映,体现(果-因): reflect, present, demonstrate, suggest, imply, show This result demonstrates that…中华考试网 D 考虑到: given, considering, in view of, thanks to, according to He succeeded thanks to (in view of) his effort. E 依赖于: rely on, depend on, resort to, He resorted to books when he had problems. F 条件关系:when, once, as soon as, as long as As soon as he got the money, he would leave the country at once. G 分词短语,不定式做状语 Failing in the final exam, she cried. 第二种对比转折关系 A 对比:while, whereas, on the other hand 在解释句子题,插入句子题中,一旦出现对比关系,学生在掌握的基础上就能非常快速的判定句间和句内的关系。While, whereas 前后连接的是平行结构,on the other hand前必定有on one hand, 可以用来把握句间关系。 B 转折:but, although, despite, in spite of, nevertheless, however 第三种比较关系 A 同级比较as…as B 比较级:more…than, -er than, less…than C 变化:change, alter, vary, modify, revise, increase, decrease, enhance, diminish, develop,progress, advance, improve, retreat, degenerate, continue, remain D 差异:different, distinguish, separate, same, similar, comparable, compare…to

实例讲解托福阅读利用因果关系词解题方法

实例讲解托福阅读利用因果关系词解题方法 说到托福考试阅读部分中的因果关系词,绝大部分的考生都不陌生,信手拈来也能说上三五个相关词,如:because、so、since、result from、due to、therefore、as a consequence,而这些逻辑关系如何在托福阅读中帮助我们解题的呢?今天点课台就协助大家一一攻克。 首先,因果关系词,其实有两类,一个是表示原因的:as、since、thanks to、as result of、because of、owing to、result from、due to、on account of、by virtue of、in that、attribute to;另一个是表示结果的:as a consequence、thus、hence、so、as a result、result in、contribute to、lead to、cause、breed、trigger 紧接着,我们来看托福阅读的句子简化题。这道题要求考生快速地把文章段落中打上阴影的一个长难句简化成一个意思不变的同义句。专家们发现一个规律,那就是:原句的核心信息在正确选项中一定被同义改写了,但是句子中的重要的逻辑关系是不会变的。知道这个规律,解开这道题就变得简单了。 下面,我们来看TPO3 Desertification这篇文章的句子简化题: The extreme seriousness of desertification results fromthe vast areas of land and the tremendous numbers of people affected, as well as fromthe great difficulty of reversing or even slowing the process. ADesertification is a significant problem becauseit is so hard to reverse and affects large areas of land and great numbers of people. ASlowing down the process of desertification is difficult because ofpopulation growth that has spread over large areas of land. BThe spread of deserts is considered a very serious problem that can be solved only if large numbers of people in various countries are involved in the effort. CDesertification is extremely hard to reverse unless the population is reduced in the vast areas affected. 很多托福考生在做句子简化题时,习惯性地把待简化的句子翻译成中文,那样做其实不仅慢,而且很容易乱。

托福阅读精选45句长难句翻译

精选45句托福阅读长难句翻译及词汇注释 (涵盖部分句子简化题翻译) 1.The same thing happens to this day, though on a smaller scale, wherever a sediment(沉积物)-laden(装满的)river or stream emerges from a mountain valley onto relatively flat land, dropping its load as the current slows: the water usually spreads out fanwise, depositing(沉积)the sediment in the form of a smooth, fan-shaped slope(斜面). 虽然是较为小型的,但类似的事情也在当下发生,无论什么地方的、大量携带沉积物的河水或溪流从山谷中流至较为平坦的地带,都会随着流速的减慢会沉淀下它的携带物。 河流通常以扇形蔓延,使沉积物以一种平滑的扇形斜面的形式沉积。 2.In lowland country almost any spot on the ground may overlie(躺在某上) what was once the bed of a river that has since become buried by soil; if they ar e now below the water’s upper surface (the water table), the gravels (石子,砂砾)and sands of the former riverbed, and its sandbars(沙洲,堤坝), will be saturated(浸湿)with groundwater. 在地势较低的城市里,地面上几乎所有曾是河床的地方都被土壤掩埋。如果曾是河床的地方现在处于河流(的上表面)之下,旧时河床的石砾、沙子和沙洲就会被地表水浸湿。 3.But note that porosity(孔隙度)is not the same as permeability(渗透率), which measures the ease with which water can flow through a material; this depends on the sizes of the individual cavities(腔,洞)and the crevices (裂缝,缺口)linking them. 但是要注意的在测量水可以从一种材料间通过的轻松程度的时候,孔隙度并不等同于渗透率。这个要依材料中每个独立的洞和裂缝的大小而定。 4.If the pores(毛孔,气孔)are large, the water in them will exist as drops too heavy for surface tension to hold, and it will drain(使液体流走)away; but if the pores are small enough, the water in them will exist as thin films(薄膜), too light to overcome the force of surface tension holding them in place; then the water will be firmly held. 如果气孔很大,其内部的水分会以滴的形式存在,水分会由于过重、不能被表面张力持住而流走。反之,如果气孔很小,其内部的水分会以薄膜的形式存在,水分太轻以至于不能克服固定它们的表面张力,因此水分就会被以膜的形式保留。 5.But the myths that have grown up around the rites(隆重的仪式或典礼)may continue as part of the group’s oral(口头的; 口述的)tradition and may even come to be acted out under conditions divorced(分离)from these rites.

托福阅读分数对照表

常常有考友询问,为什么托福阅读明明有42个题,总分却只有30分,分数如何计算的呢?其实,每每看到这种问题,小编的内心是疼痛的。 大家准备一个考试,却不看考试指导手册,考得不太理想,简直太正常了。就算天生神勇,也应该有个作战纲领呀! 打开OG,第一部分就是托福阅读的介绍,编者首先给出了评分标准的表格。 紧接着给出了各类题型的题型解析,这些就是托福阅读的考察内容,众位考友一定要反复研究,在准备考试时,下意识的按照出题者的思路去解题。 那么托福阅读有些什么考察类型?应该怎么解题?

在iBT阅读中,甚至可以扩展到ETS所有考试的阅读题目中,无论是题干还是正确选项,大都能在原文中找出一句话来与之相对应。即题目是原文的意译。这种意译是通过同义词来完成的。即题干中多用近义词来对原文中的句子进行替换,来达到提出问题或者提出正确答案的意思。准确把握意译,是多数题目中准确在原文中定位信息、或者在迷惑选项中选出正确的那个,都有着重要的作用。 1、词汇题 解题方法:若认识,直接解题,没得说;若不认识,就只能推断了。 但是备考阶段最重要的一点。背单词!首先,考托福没有一定的词汇量等于直接酱油了,所以词汇量是一切的基础。 2、指代题 考点:句子直接词之间的关系 解题方法: (1)代词 a. 从句的主语指代主句的主宾语(使用属性判断,不用含义) b. 关系代词指代先行词(插入结构不影响指代关系) c. 重复概念指代: Tom and his cat(就近原则) d. some 和 others (2)名词 a. 优先选择题干的上下意词 m is a kind of M, M是m的上意词 b. 若上下意词不唯一则当作代词指代处理 注意: a.被指代对象往往在代词之前出现 b. 从句开头往后找答案 c. 代词和被指代对象的数性和性质必须一致 d. 指代的传递现象 3、句子简化题 解题方法: (1)确定题干句子中的逻辑成分 逻辑成分主要包括:关联词,动词,状语 而托福最爱考的逻辑主要是:因果,比较、最高级,否定 (2)确定与逻辑相关的语义 要依据最简化原则,抓句子中的逻辑要素。 因果的逻辑要素是:原因结果 比较的逻辑要素是:比较三要素 最高级 否定的逻辑要素是:作用对象 (3)选择与题干逻辑语义一致的选项 先主后次,从逻辑到语义(千万要保证逻辑正确) 很多时候,光凭逻辑关系,就能选出正确选项。越复杂越长的句子,更需要很快地抓住句内的逻辑关系。然后快速看选项,找出逻辑一致的选项。 4、句子插入题

S1:单词不认识。。。 S2:划分不清楚句子结构。。。 S3:句子逻辑关系一团乱麻。。。 在处理阅读长难句的时候,我们总会想到这些问题:我们是否认识足够的单词和词组?我们是否掌握句子的语法结构?我们是否清楚句子中的逻辑关系?当看到上面的对话和下面这幅图片的时候,Ada老师总会想到那些在长难句的泥沼中痛苦挣扎的学生们。面对句子中的一大串字符就好像看见图片中的一大堆细小零件,很多同学总是一筹莫展难以拼出一个完整的意思。那到底长难句的障碍是什么呢?

下面具体看看几位同学的翻译实例: 举个栗子 S1: The answer to such questions has nothing to do with a lack of skill or imagination on the part of Egyptian artists and everything to do with the purposes for which they were producing their art. 上图中学生的整句翻译意思是很不通顺的,中文里面最蹩脚的部分就是“没有任何事可做伴随一个缺乏技能”和“又有任何事可做伴随他们”。看完这两个部分,作为一个正常中文合格的人都是很难理解的。归根到底是因为该生不能理解“has nothing to do with”和“has everything to do with”这两个词组的意思,从而造成整句的中文很奇怪。我相信有很多学生都会碰到相同的问题:读句子的时候发现句子里面有太多的生僻单词或词组,导致分析了几遍之后也还是意思很奇怪。 单词是一切英语学习的基础,对于托福阅读长难句的理解也是至关重要的。同时很多句子里面都还会用到词组,词组起到了提纲挈领的作用把整个句子枝枝蔓蔓的内容都统领起来。如果上句中的这两个固定搭配学生明白意思是“与…有关”和“与…无关”,那么中文翻译意思就很明确:问题的答案是与埃及艺术家缺乏技能或者想象力无关的,是与他们创造艺术的目的相关。所以我们在理解长难句的时候要努力多去积累一些单词和词组。 再举个栗子
