考研英语阅读解题技巧之“回文定位”

本周我与参加2023考研的学生们沟通后,发现很多同学阅读做不好,错误率高的原因是题干和文章(内容)对应不上,也就是说,题干回到原文找不到答案出处句(词)。那么今天美伊老师就给大家教教如何回文定位吧。

回文定位的核心方法是:先勾画出题干中的关键词,再回到原文,找与关键词高度匹配的定位句,加以理解,最后对比选项,方可选出正确答案。

注意!需要我们学生在题干中勾画的关键词,主要有:1)题干中标记的段落位置(Line 4, Para 1);2)题干中特殊标点(引号等);3)题干中专有名词(人名、地名、数字、时间等);4)题干中观点立场标志词,如:suggest, indicate, argue,hold……。

例1:Which of the following is true of the California measure?

(2020,Text 3, Q32)

  [A] It has irritated private business owners.

[B] It is welcomed by the Supreme Court.

[C]It may go against the Constitution.

[D] It will settle the prior controversies.

做此题时,我们可以先勾画出题干中的专有名词“the California measure”,利用此专有名词回到原文找高度匹配的句子,位于第四段。

原文:The bills are similar to a measure recently adopted in California, …. In signing the measure, California Governor Jerry Brown admitted that the law, which expressly classifies people on the basis of sex, is probably unconstitutional.

当我们将此题的答案出处句(段)找到后,就可以继续使用以往教给大家的解题(型)技巧选出正确答案。

例2:It can be learned from Paragraph 2 that the digital services tax____. (2020,Text 4, Q37)

[A] may trigger countermeasures against France.

  [B] is apt to arouse criticism at home and abroad.

  [C] aims to ease international trade tensions.

[D] will prompt the tech giants to quit France.

做此题时,我们可以利用题干中的“…learned from Paragraph 2 ”(题干位置)直接回文定位在第二段。再利用细节信息词“ the digital services tax”,精准定位在第二段第二句:But it(the digital services tax)has already sparked significant controversy, with the Unite States trade representative opening an investigation into whether the tax discriminates against American companies, which in turn could lead to trade sanctions against France.然后大家可以利用正确选项特点之一:与原文同义同义复现,方可选出正确答案。
