雅思閱讀發現訊號詞的四大方法

有雅思專家分析雅思閱讀中訊號詞對考點指示的微妙作用,並把 劍橋雅思4-10閱讀 中出現的與考點相關的訊號詞,根據其所表達的邏輯關係分成四大類,分別是表順接和遞進,表對比和轉折,表相似,表排列次序。

一、順接和遞進

例詞:also, furthermore, moreover, what is more, in addition…

考點:And Western scientists are starting to draw on this wisdom… (C6, P28, Q31找標題)

解析:And在這句話開頭,有一定的遞進含義,this wisdom則是指代了前面一句話出現的their wealth of traditional knowledge(因紐特人傳統的知識),所以這兩句話有緊密的聯絡,同學們在讀題的時候要通過發現訊號詞,然後發散地看它的前後句,最後把考點考察的 意思補充完整。

二、對比和轉折

例詞:however, but, although, nevertheless, on the other hand, by comparison, while

考點:But such projects must be built to higher specifications and with more accountability to local people and their environment than in the past. (C7 P24 Q20)

解題:此題是段落大意配對題,在確定H段段落大意時,段落中間but之後出現的那句話就是解題的關鍵,根據句子中出現的兩個比較級,可以確定答案應該為X The need to raise standards.

考點:While suggestopedia has gained some notoriety through success in the teaching of modern languages, few teachers are able to emulate the spectacular results of Lozanove and his associates. (C7 P27 倒數第二段 Q39, 40)

解析:段首句用while引起注意,我們可以根據success, 和後半句中的few teachers, spectacular results, 搞定最後兩個填空題。

三、相似

例詞:similarly, in other words, that is, put another way, as …

考點: Thus, we concluded that the blind interpret abstract shapes as sighted people do.(C4, P28, Q40)

解析:題目考的是對文章的總結。因此解題時重點看文章中表示結論的句子,thus這個單詞給了我們提示,而句子中的表達的是一個相似的邏輯,因此答案可以確定為B。

四、排列次序

例詞:firstly, second, another, the second, the most, the best, next, then, now,later, since, eventually, finally…

考點:First, it lacked the necessary technical vocabulary. Second, it lacked the grammatical resources required to represent the world i an objective and impersonal way...... (C5, P49, Q30-31)

解析:題目30-31考的是並列和否定的邏輯關係,原文中的first, second, 對應的就是題目中的...這個並列關係,這兩題的答案就迎刃而解了。

考點:First mechanism, then mass use of chemical fertiliser and pesticides, then monocultures, then battery rearing of livestock, and now genetic engineering – the onward marching of intensive farming has seemed unstoppable in the last half- century, as the yields of produce have soared. (C7, P44, Q15)

解析:段首句連用表示次序的訊號詞,first, then, then… and now, 體現發展的不同階段。(the stages of development of farming industry C7 P77 選擇配對)
