第三步:答题 Scan &. Answer( 12 – 13.5分钟 )

一. 前七道 (9 – 10.5分钟)

循着上述思路审完前七道题以后,我们就开始利用localizers 定位答题。但是,有几条规律得告诉大家:

1. 第一题经常是主旨题。答题方法有三:1)把短文的小标题相加 2)留到最后再做 3)直接选Yes (只因No或者NG的主旨题不太好出而已)

2. 真题的出题顺序与原文的相关位置是一致的。也就是说,第四题答案的位置绝不会在第三题前面(但模拟题远非如此,所以模拟题较难)。因此我们答题时,不要一道题一道题地答,而要两道两道地做,前后呼应,能更好地定位。审题时,我一再强调要把问题整理一下,就是为了把联系紧密的题捆绑在一起,然后到原文一举拿下。

3. Yes 的题是原句的同义词、反义词互换,这是老生常谈。下面我谈一下No和NG。
No 的题一般分三种:正面冲突(contradict)、偷梁换柱 (pilfer)、曲解原文(twist)。

与原文正面冲突的情况占90%。举例:
原文:United States ranks somewhere in the middle of the major countries in landfill disposal.
问题:Compared with other major Industrialized countries, America buries a much higher percentage of its solid waste in landfills. (样题)

原文:There’s an energy crisis in America, and it has nothing to do with fossil fuels.
问题:The energy crisis in America …… refers to a shortage of fossil fuels. (2006年真题)

原文:…and by 1921 there were 387,000 miles of paved roads. Many were built using…adequate drainage. Beyond that, there were no national standards for size, weight restrictions, or …
问题:National standards for paved roads were in place by 1921. (2006年真题)

偷梁换柱的情况占5%。举例:
原文:…a typical cancer patient has predictable attitude. She …feels depressed, upset, and angry.
问题:… have observed that a typical patient feels depressed, impatient and angry. (模拟题)

原文:Japan has effectively run out of low-wage workers …and, in some cases, beyond Western technological standards.
问题:The technological standards in many areas of Japan’s economy are superior to those in the West. (模拟题)

曲解原文的情况占5%。举例:
原文:They must be able to listen to delegates and to translate at the same time! This is a difficult but very important job. One small mistake could cause many problems.
问题:Translation for the UN General Assembly is a very important job because they must be able to listen and translate at the same time.

另外,包含绝对词(must, all, never…)的命题一般是No,包含相对词(may, can, possibly…)的命题一般是Yes。

四级阅读NG 的题远不如雅思那么让人欲吐而不得。中国人的思维方式毕竟比较一致。只提醒一条:我们有前后两道题做参照,所以,要相信自己的定位是准确的。如果在某一段里找不到相关信息,上一段或者下一段也不可能再出现了。这时,要果断地选NG。

二.后三道 (3分钟)

1.审题(参考第二步);

2.定位(当然到文章后面的段落找答案。注:文章后面,并不意味着肯定在前七道题的后面,比如,第8题的答案有可能在第7题的前面);

另外,密切注意空白前面紧挨着的词语。

3.答题。答题时请注意,你填的基本都是原文,但它出的题目可未必,很可能包含同义词替换,例如2006年6月的第10题:
The interstate system was renamed after Eisenhower in recognition of ______________________.
定位词Localizer:rename 和Eisenhower,答案:his vision and leadership.
原文:The highway system was officially renamed for Eisenhower to honor his vision and leadership. ( honor = in recognition of )

提醒:后三道题需要更强的概括能力,而且还得书写英文,小心名词的单复数、动词的语法变化,相对难一些,所以,要给足三分钟的时间。

最后送大家一句话:Do, or do not. There is no try.
