【实例解析】掌握3技巧 快速突破托福阅读推理题

【实例解析】掌握3技巧快速突破托福阅读推理题在托福阅读的十大题型中,推理题也是一种很让头疼的题目。

推理题的题目往往都是隐藏在文章内容中,没有直接的表露。

而在做题时却又不能错过任何一个信息点,因为这些可能都是最后答案的重要凭证。

而在推理题中主要的词汇有infer,imply , most likely (least likely) 或probably 等。

一、推理题的两大分类:有共性的推理题和无共性的推理题这里所谓的有共性推理题就是说题干中有和原文内容相同的关键词(也叫线索)。

根据关键词回原文定位,然后进行推理。

一般来说,大多数的推理题都属于这类题目。

对于无共性的推理题,也就是题干中无线索,一般使用排除法,即根据各个选项的关键词回原文定位,通过排除法得出正确答案。

返回原文找信息点,采用排除法是解决这两类题型解决的共同策略。

二、推理题的三个具体的解题思路:1、一般对比推理:根据两个事情的对比特征,问其中一个事物的特征,只要将与之形成对比的另外一个事情的特征否定掉就可以。

2、时间对比推理:在这种推理中,一般有两个形成对比的时间段,它们所具有的特征一般相反。

当题干问一个时间段的特征时,只要将与之相反的时间段的特征否定掉就可以了。

3、集合概念推理:一个大的集合的两个方面形成对比,两者之间存在着互补性关系,也就是一个的增加意味着另一个的减少。

反之,相同。

这个比较抽象,我们来看一个例子:例如:Both the number and the percentage of people in the United States involvedin nonagricultural pursuits expanded rapidly during the half century followingthe civil war, with some of the most dramatic increases occurring in the domainsof transportation, manufacturing, and trade and distribution.What can be inferred from the passage about the agricultural sector of theeconomy after the Civil War?(A) New technological developments had little effect on farmers.(B) The percentage of the total population working in agriculturedeclined.(C) Many farms destroyed in the war were rebuilt after the war.(D) Farmers achieved new prosperity because of better ruraltransportation.文中指出:非农业人口的数量和比例都增加了。

托福阅读推理题答题技巧

托福阅读推理题答题技巧

托福阅读推理题答题技巧哎呀,托福阅读里的推理题,可真是让不少考生头疼啊!你是不是也经常抓狂,看到那些看似简单,实则考察你脑洞大开的题目,觉得自己大脑一片空白?别急,我来给你分享一些轻松有趣的答题技巧,让你在推理题面前也能泰然自若,不再紧张。

要知道,推理题不是让你去死记硬背那些阅读材料里的每个细节。

你看,文章有时候给的信息其实是有限的,很多内容需要你自己去“猜”或者“推测”。

这可不是胡乱猜测,而是根据文章给的线索,去找出最合适的答案。

就像侦探推理小说里,主角需要从一些零散的线索中找到真相,托福的推理题也是类似的,考察的其实是你对信息的整合能力。

所以啊,别一看到推理题就害怕,放松,脑袋清晰点,开始推理吧。

说到推理题,最重要的一点就是不要陷入文章的细节陷阱。

有些题目会故意让你迷失在一些不重要的细节中。

比如,文中可能提到了某个不太相关的历史事件,或者某个名字在文章中频繁出现。

你千万别以为这些内容就是答案的关键。

答案反而藏在那些看似不起眼的地方,比如文章的主题、作者的态度、段落间的逻辑关系。

你得睁大眼睛,不要被表面的信息所迷惑,挖掘出文章的深层含义。

记住一个大招:多留心作者的语气和态度。

托福阅读里的推理题可不只是单纯问“事实”类的问题,它还经常会考察你对作者态度的判断。

你有没有发现,有时候文章里有些地方,作者会用一些特定的词语,比如“显然”、“不可否认”、“绝对”等,这些词语往往代表着作者的立场。

推理题很可能会让你判断作者是持赞成态度,还是反对态度,或者是在某些问题上显得有些模棱两可。

所以,读文章的时候,要像侦探一样留心这些细节,别让任何小线索从你眼前溜走。

千万不要被题目中的“看似对立”的选项给搞晕了。

推理题经常会有两个选择看起来差不多,但实际上只有一个是最符合作者意图的。

此时,不要按自己的感觉去选,而是要回到文章中,仔细推敲,找出最符合文章整体脉络和作者观点的答案。

有些选项可能会偏离文章的主要观点,或者过于绝对化,记得不要轻易上当。

托福阅读推理题解题思路

托福阅读推理题解题思路

托福阅读推理题解题思路托福阅读中的推理题是很多同学害怕的题型,下面小编就带你找一些方法去攻略它。

托福阅读之推理题备考方法一、推理题的标志推理题的题干中一般含有infer, imply, most likely, least likely, probably等词,分为有共性的推理题和无共性的推理题两大类。

二、推理题的做法对于无共性的推理题,也就是题干中无线索的,一般使用排除法,即根据各个选项的关键词回原文定位,通过排除法得出正确答案。

对于有共性的推理题,也就是题干中有线索的,建议考生可以先圈定题干中的关键词,根据关键词回原文定位,然后进行推理。

推理题主要有下列思路:1. 一般对比推理ETS设计推理题的手段不多,根据两个事物的对比特征出题是其中之一。

问其中一个事物的特征时,只要将与之形成对比的另一个事物的特征否定掉就可以了。

例如:It should be obvious that cetaceans, whales, porpoises, and dolphins are mammals. They breathe through lungs, not through gills, and give birth to live young. Their streamlined bodies, the absence of hind legs, and the presence of a fluke and blowhole cannot disguise their affinities with land-dwelling mammals. However, unlike the cases of sea otters and pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses whose limbs are functional both on land and at sea), it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like.Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about early sea otters?A. It is not difficult to imagine what they looked like.B. There were great numbers of them.C. They lived in the sea only.D. They did not leave many fossil remains.2. 时间对比推理这种思路常被考到。

如何快速托福阅读解题能力?逻辑关系是重点

如何快速托福阅读解题能力?逻辑关系是重点

如何快速托福阅读解题能力?逻辑关系是重点在托福备考的过程中,有时我们会发现托福阅读的内容会超出了自己的能力范围。

遇到了这些内容单凭词汇的角度是无法完整的理解一个句子的。

只能通过结合语法和逻辑思维的方法进行全面的理解。

下面点课台教育就为大家详细介绍一下托福阅读中经常出现的四大逻辑关系,把握了它们就等于掌握了托福阅读解题技巧的一个重要部分。

1.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 so that 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, be responsive to, be attributable to如:“The extreme seriousness of desertification results from the vast areas of land and tremendous numbers of people affected, as well as from the great difficulty of reversing or even slowing the process。

托福阅读推理题题型介绍和解题思路实例讲解

托福阅读推理题题型介绍和解题思路实例讲解托福阅读推理题题型介绍和解题思路实例讲解托福阅读推理题题型介绍1.时间对比推理在这种推理中,一般有两个形成对比的时间段,它们所具有的特征一般相反.当题干问一个时间段的特征时,只要将与之相反的时间段的特征否定掉就可以了.2.集合概念推理一个大的集合的两个方面形成对比,两者之间存在着互补性关系,也就是一个的增加意味着另一个的减少.反之,相同.3.一般对比推理在文章中介绍事物1的特征,并给出了事物1.2的特征对比,然后问事物2的特征,解答题目时只要将事物1的特征否定掉就可以.托福阅读推理题解题思路实例讲解遇到这类题型,考生先不要盲目看选项,而要有个大致的解题思路.题干中一般给出关键词A,学生根据题目出现位置对应到段落,找到关键词所在句子;然后根据内容依据以上说明判断题目属于三种推理类型的哪一种;最后根据类型对应的解题方法答题.实例解析The story of the westward movement of population in the US is, in the main,the story of the e_pansion of American agriculture of the development of newareas for the raising of livestock and the cultivation of wheat, corn, tobacco,and cotton. After __, improved transportation enabled more and more westernfarmers to escape a self-sufficient way of life and enter a national market economy during periods when commodity prices were high, the rate of westwardmigration increased spectacularly.What can be inferred from paragraph 1 about western farmers prior to__?A. They had limited their crop production to wheat, corn, tobacco andcotton.B. They were able to sell their produce at high pricesC. They had not been successful in raising cattle.D. They did not operate in a national market economy.思路分析根据题干关键词western farmers prior to __定位(重点关注年代),可以看到关于〝After__〞的信息,这里就可以猜测解题用到时间对比.只要把__年之后的内容看懂了,并且在这个内容前面加not即可.文中说到,改善的交通使得越来越多的西部农民摆脱了自给自足的生活,并且进入了国家性的市场经济,那个时候货物的价格很多,所以向西迁移的速率也大幅增长.所以选项D是正确的.托福阅读背景材料之性格决定魅力If you e_hibit positive traits such as honesty and helpfulness, the chancesare that you will be perceived as a good looking person, for a new study hasfound that the perception of physical attractiveness is influenced by a person spersonality.The study, led by Gary W. Lewandowski, Jr, found that people who e_hibitnegative traits, such as unfairness and rudeness, appear to be less physicallyattractive to observers.In the study, the participants viewed photographs of opposite-se_individuals and rated them for attractiveness before and after being providedwith information on personality traits.After personality information was received, participants also rated thedesirability of each individual as a friend and as a dating partner.Information on personality was found to significantly alter perceiveddesirability, showing that cognitive processes modify judgments ofattractiveness.Perceiving a person as having a desirable personality makes the personmore suitable in general as a close relationship partner of any kind, saidLewandowski.The findings show that a positive personality leads to greater desirabilityas a friend, which leads to greater desirability as a romantic partner and,ultimately, to being viewed as more physically attractive.The findings remained consistent regardless of how attractive the individual was initially perceived to be, or of the participants currentrelationship status or commitment level with a partner.What would you think of this lady s physical attractiveness if shee_hibited bad personal traits?This research provides a more positive alternative by reminding peoplethat personality goes a long way toward determining your attractiveness; it caneven change people s impressions of how good looking you are, saidLewandowski.如果你表现出诚实和乐于助人等美好品质,那么别人会觉得你的外表也很迷人.一项最新研究发现,一个人的性格会影响别人对他或她的外表吸引力的看法.该项由盖里?W?勒万多维斯基负责的研究发现,人们认为,表现出不诚实和粗鲁等恶劣品质的人外表也不够吸引人.研究对象首先观看了一组异性的照片,随后分别在得知照片中人物的性格特点之前和之后给他们的外表评分.研究对象在得知照片中人物的性格特点后,还对与其中每个人交朋友或做恋人的期望值进行了评分.研究人员发现,有关人物性格特点的信息大大改变了之前的喜好度评分,研究对象的认知过程改变了他们对照片中人物外表的评价.勒万多维斯基说:〝总的来说,如果人们认为一个人的性格较好,那么他们会觉得无论与这个人做朋友还是做恋人都更合适.〞研究结果表明,人们更期望与性格较好的人交朋友.成为恋人,从而会认为他们的外表更迷人.无论照片中人物给人的〝第一印象〞怎样.或者研究对象目前的情感关系状况以及与伴侣的亲密程度如何,研究结果都是一致的.勒万多维斯基说:〝该研究提出了一个更为积极的观点,它提醒人们,性格在很大程度上能决定你的吸引力;性格甚至能够改变人们对于你外表的印象.〞大量的托福阅读背景知识积累对于托福阅读非常有帮助,不管是英文原版还是中文翻译版,同学们都可以大量去阅读,熟悉内容即可.托福阅读背景知识之水烟的危害World health e_perts warned Thursday that smoking water pipes, long popularin the Middle East and North Africa and with a growing fan base elsewhere, canbe more harmful than cigarettes.世界卫生专家近期警告称, 在中东和北非盛行的水烟危害程度可能比香烟更大,全球其他地区也有越来越多的水烟爱好者.A single puff from a water pipe is nearly equal to the volume of smokeinhaled from an entire cigarette, said The Tobacco Atlas launched at the WorldConference on Tobacco OR Health in Abu Dhabi.在阿布扎比的世界烟草或健康大会上推出的世界烟草图册显示; 从水烟管吸入一口的烟量几乎等于吸入一整只香烟的量.〞And World Health Organization tobacco e_pert Edouard Tursan d Espaignet said one session of shisha (water pipe) can be equal to smoking 20 to 30cigarettes in one go, which can be very dangerous.世界卫生组织烟草专家爱德华·图尔桑·艾斯帕内特说〝吸食一次什莎(水烟)的量可能等于一口气吸食20到30只香烟的量,这是很危险的.〞The water pipe, variously known as a hubbly-bubbly, hookah, shisha or nargileh, has become a major worry for anti-tobacco campaigners as its ispopularised across university campuses, overlooked by regulators.水烟的叫法五花八门,如hubbly-bubbly,hookah,shisha或者nargileh,而因为其在大学校园颇为流行并被管理者忽视,所以水烟已成为反烟运动者主要的担忧.In recent years, its use has spread to the United States, Europe and, to alesser e_tent,South America.近年来,水烟已流入美国.欧洲和南美的部分地区.Gemma Vestal of the WHO s Tobacco Free Initiative told AFP that whileshishas were previously the domain of older males, younger people between _-and 24-years old living in cities and educated are increasingly smokingthem.世界卫生组织无烟倡议行动的杰玛·维斯塔说,虽然先前吸食水烟的群体是老年男性,但是越来越多年龄在_岁到24岁之间.住在城市且受过教育的年轻人都开始吸食水烟.The chairman of pathology and laboratory medicine at the AmericanUniversity of Beirut, Ghazi Zaatari, says aromatic flavourings known as maasaladded to the tobacco offer younger smokers a smoother and more toleratedalternative to the taste of traditional tobacco.贝鲁特美国大学的病理学和实验室医学主席加齐·扎泰里说,水烟中添加的一种叫做maasal的芳香味道给年轻烟民提供了比传统烟草〝更顺畅,更易接受〞的味道.And the water pipe has an interesting design because it somewhat engagesyour five senses. You re holding the hose, there’s something you re looking at,there is the aroma, there is the sound of the bubbling and there is this kind ofsensational thing with the social gathering.而且水烟的设计很有趣,因为它从某种程度上同时调动吸烟者的五官感受.你拿着烟管,你看着它,它有香味,它有冒泡的声音,此外,在社交聚会中吸水烟是一件多么美妙的事.In social gatherings that last for an average of an hour, the smoker canquickly get hooked on it because of the nicotine.在持续平均一小时的社交聚会中,水烟吸食者会迅速对它上瘾,因为它含有尼古丁.Moreover, the smoke from charcoal used to heat the tobacco containsto_ins.此外,用于加热烟草木炭释放的烟雾也含有毒素.The WHO said harmful effects include impact on the respiratory system,cardiovascular system, oral activity and teeth.世界卫生组织称,它会对人的健康造成危害,包括损坏呼吸系统,心血管系统,口腔活动和牙齿等.In addition to the dangers of lung cancer, data also suggest probableassociations with oral, oesophageal, gastric, and urinary bladder cancer, aswell as chronic bronchitis, cardiovascular disease, stroke as well as otherillnesses.除了肺癌的危险,数据还表明吸食水烟的危害可能与口腔癌.食管癌.胃癌和膀胱癌,以及慢性支气管炎.心血管疾病.中风,以及其他疾病相关联.Global tobacco companies are increasingly investing in the water pipebusiness, e_perts say, while little has been done to curb their use, despite acrackdown on cigarettes.专家表示,全球的烟草公司正越来越多地投资于水烟行业,但是除了打击烟草行业以外,对于水烟的消费没有任何限制措施.According to The Tobacco Atlas, water pipes fall into a less heavily orun-regulated group of tobacco products in most countries.根据烟草图册介绍,水烟在大多数国家是不受严重监管或不监管的烟草产品. There has been a gap for a while andnow hopefully, with this global effort, they (tobacco regulators) are comingback to emphasise the importance of including the water pipe in all thesepolicies and regulations on tobacco, Zaatari said.〝这个缺口已经存在一段时间了,希望通过全球的努力,他们(烟草监管者)能够强调将水烟纳入所有烟草政策和法规监管的重要性,〞扎泰里说.Brazil has taken measures to ban flavourings, while Turkey has e_tendedwarning labelling from cigarette packets to include the water pipe.巴西已经采取措施禁止在水烟中加入香料,同时土耳其已将之前有关香烟烟盒上必须有警告标志的规定执行范围扩展至水烟领域.And the ruler of the UAE emirate of Sharjah has banned the use of waterpipes altogether, earning him an award this week from the WHO.阿拉伯联合酋长国的沙迦酋长国国王已下令彻底禁止吸食水烟,世界卫生组织因此给他颁了一个奖.Vocabularypathology:病理学hose:软管aroma:香味oesophageal cancer:食道癌urinary bladder cancer:膀胱癌托福趣味阅读之麦兜的鱼丸粗面McDull: Fish ball noodle, please.麦兜:麻烦你,鱼丸粗面!School Principal and Logan: No noodle left.老板:没有粗面了.McDull: Fish ball rice noodle then.麦兜:这样啊……来一碗鱼丸河粉吧.School Principal and Logan: No fish ball left.老板:没有鱼丸.McDull: Chicken wing noodle then.麦兜:这样啊……金钱肚粗面好了.School Principal and Logan: No noodle left.老板:没有粗面.McDull: How about fish ball congee?麦兜:那么要鱼丸油面吧.School Principal and Logan: No fish ball left.老板:没有鱼丸.McDull: Nothing left today?

下面是一个托福阅读推断题的实例及解析:第1页/共3页锲而不舍,金石可镂。

【示例】In recent years, many people have become increasingly concerned about the health risks associated with exposure to pesticides. Although it is difficult to accurately estimate the actual health risks posed by pesticides, because it is difficult to isolate the effect of pesticides from other factors, there is growing evidence that exposure to certain pesticides is associated with an increased risk of certain types of cancer, neurological disorders, and other health problems. As a result, some countries have taken steps to ban or limit the use of certain pesticides in agriculture.Based on the information in the passage, it can be inferred that __________.A. all pesticides pose health risksB. pesticides are the main cause of cancerC. the health risks of pesticides are well understoodD. banning or limiting the use of certain pesticides is an effective solution to the health risks associated with pesticides【解析】依据文章第一段的最终一句话,可以得出一些结论:虽然很难精确估量农药带来的实际健康风险,但有越来越多的证据表明接触某些农药与某些类型的癌症、神经系统疾病和其他健康问题的风险增加有关。

解决托福阅读推断题 学会使用正逆向思维

解决托福阅读推断题 学会使用正逆向思维

解决托福阅读推断题学会使用正逆向思维在托福阅读的十大题型中,推断题也许是大家认为会比较耗费时间的一种题目了。

因为托福文章有很清晰的逻辑架构,每个自然段往往是按照TS (TopicSentence) + SD (Supporting details)展开的,而文章多半是按Introduction + Aspects +Attitudes展开的。

但是,想要顺利的解答这样的题目其实也并不是想象中那么难。

下面我们就为大家介绍一下用正向和逆向思维去解决推断题。

OG上将推断题定义为检查考生对文章中强烈建议但绝不明说观点(strongly implied but not explicitly stated inthe text)的理解程度,属于理解性题目,题目要求如下:Paragraph 2 suggests which of the following about X?Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 2 about X?According to paragraph 3, what do Y indicate about X?According to paragraph 4, what does the author imply about X?题干中有出现infer, imply, indicate或suggest这四个单词,我们就判定这个题目为推断题,那么推断题应该如何解答呢?第一步,判断题型。

我们拿到题目,看到上面四个单词中的任何一个,心中就想着这是推断题,推断题的做题宗旨是文章强烈暗示,要通过文章内容进行合理推断。

第二步,审清题干,原文定位。

仔细阅读题干,弄清题干内容,推断方向,带着题干核心信息到文章中准确定位。

第三步,推测+判断。

根据相关句进行正向或逆向的推理,最后择优而选,确定答案。

正向推断:和事实信息题做题方法一样,答案就是定位的句子的同义改写。

托福阅读推理题技巧分享

托福阅读推理题技巧分享推理题是托福阅读中让很多同学望而生畏的题型,因为该类题对段落细节理解和选项分析要求非常高,下面小编就和大家分享托福阅读推理题,希望能够帮助到你们,快来一起学习吧。

托福阅读推理题具体来看,推理题的解题思路主要有如下三步:第一步审题,分析题干关键信息用以确定原文考点句。

就一般规律而言,题干的关键词在原文中会出现一两处,并且邻近几句中出现。

所以先分析和确定题干中的关键词,再迅速扫读原文确定出题句很重要。

第二步定位,根据题干的关键词,在段落中扫读缩小出题范围,特别要留意语法结构负责的长难句,同学往往比较容易略读而跳过了关键词。

对应要点,找到出题句,然后着重分析长难句。

第三步核实,分析选项并确定正确选项。

推理题的正确选项有两类特征,一是跟原文信息进行反推;二是从大范围推小范围,即分析原理句和举例句之间的关系。

我们以官方真题Official5第1篇文章xxxxS AND PLANTS为例,分析下推理题的解题思路。

官方真题Official5-1ItcanbeinferredfromParagraph6thatcomparedwithstandardpracticesforremediationofcontaminat edsoils,phytoremediationA.doesnotallowfortheuseoftheremovedmineralsforindustrialpurposes.B.canbefastertoimplementC.isequallyfriendlytotheenvironmentD.islesssuitableforsoilsthatneedtobeusedwithinashortperiodoftime.initial;" valign="top" width="284">Onlyrecentlyhaveinvestigatorsconsideredusingtheseplantstocleanupsoilandwastesit esthathavebeencontaminatedbytoxiclevelsofheavymetals–anenvironmentallyfriendlyapproachknownasphytoremediation.Thisscenariobeginswiththeplantin gofhyperaccumulatingspeciesinthetargetarea,xxxxetalforindustrialuses.Afterseveralyearsofcultiva tionandharvest,thesitewouldberestoredatacostmuchlowerthanthepriceofexcavationandreburial,t hestandardpracticeforremediationofcontaminatedsoils.Forexamples,infieldtrials,theplantalpinepe nnycressremovedzincandcadmiumfromsoilsnearazincsmelter,andIndianmustard,nativetoPakistan andIndia,hasbeeneffectiveinreducinglevelsofseleniumsaltsby50percentincontaminatedsoils.题目解析:第一步:审题和分析题干关键词,题干的相关信息standard practices for remediation of contaminated soils,然后扫读段落,确定出题句,因此着重在第二步解析长难句。

四种思维解决托福阅读推理题托福阅读推理题是指重要信息隐藏在文章中,不会直接表露出来,需要考生自己从表面内容中推理出。

通常看到infer、indicate、imply、suggest这类关键词,就能够判定题目类型是推断题。

这类托福阅读题目并不像词汇题或者事实信息题,只需要对文章“肤浅的”理解就能快速解题,有点儿像文章总结题,需要费一番工夫,用一些耐心对文章深层了解才能解题。

所以很多学生会觉得题目“难”。

其实掌握了方法,稍微有些耐心就能提高这类题目的答对率,题目也就不像想象中的难了。

下面文都国际小编就为大家实例讲解四种思维解决托福阅读推理题。

托福阅读推理题做题思维:对比逆推思维往往可以逆推的题目,定位句有着明显的隐含反意,找到合适的答案就可以直接选。

Paragraph 2: Speculation on the origin of these Pacific islanders began as soon as outsiders encountered them, in the absence of solid linguistic, archaeological, and biological data, many fanciful and mutually exclusive theories were devised. Pacific islanders are variously thought to have come from North America, South America, Egypt, Israel, and India, as well as Southeast Asia. Many older theories implicitly deprecated the navigational abilities and overall cultural creativity of the Pacific islanders. For example, British anthropologists G. Elliot Smith andW. J. Perry assumed that only Egyptians would have been skilled enough to navigate and colonize the Pacific. They inferred that the Egyptians even crossed the Pacific to found the great civilizations of the New World (North and South America). In 1947 Norwegian adventurer Thor Heyerdahl drifted on a balsa-log raft westward with the winds and currents across the Pacific from South America to prove his theory that Pacific islanders were Native Americans (also called American Indians). Later Heyerdahl suggested that the Pacific was peopled by three migrations: by Native Americans from the Pacific Northwest of North America drifting to Hawaii, by Peruvians drifting to Easter Island, and by Melanesians. In 1969 he crossed the Atlantic in an Egyptian-style reed boat to prove Egyptian influences in the Americas. Contrary to these theorists, the overwhelming evidence of physical anthropology, linguistics, and archaeology shows that the Pacific islanders came from Southeast Asia and were skilled enough as navigators to sail against the prevailing winds and currents.5. Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 2 about early theories of where the first inhabitants of the Pacific islands came from?○They were generally based on solid evidence.○They tried to account for the origin of the characteristic features of the languages spoken by Pacific islanders.○They assumed that the peoples living in Southeast Asia did not have the skills needed to sail to the Pacific islands.○They questioned the ideas of G. Elliot Smith and W. J. Perry.思维解析:以early (older) theories定位至Many older theories implicitly deprecated the navigational abilities and overall cultural creativity of the Pacific islanders. For example, British anthropologists G. Elliot Smith and W. J. Perry assumed that only Egyptians would have been skilled enough to navigate and colonize the Pacific,说早期的理论认为那些岛民的航海能力不行,紧接着给出例子,只有埃及人才有能力航行到并且占领这些岛,所以逆推到不是埃及人就不会做到。

看选项,C选项,东南亚人没那个技术航线到这些岛上,正确;原文说没证据,所以A反了;B和D都没提到。

托福阅读推理题做题思维:正向推断思维Paragraph 1: Groundwater is the word used to describe water that saturates the ground, filling all the available spaces. By far the most abundant type of groundwater is meteoric water; this is the groundwater that circulates as part of the water cycle. Ordinary meteoric water iswater that has soaked into the ground from the surface, from precipitation (rain and snow) and from lakes and streams. There it remains, sometimes for long periods, before emerging at the surface again. At first thought it seems incredible that there can be enough space in the “solid”ground underfoot to hold all this water.1. Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about the ground that we walk on?○It cannot hold rainwater for long periods of time.○It prevents most groundwater from circulating.○It has the capacity to store large amounts of water.○It absorbs most of the water it contains from rivers.思维解析:根据题目the ground that we walk on定位到At first thought it seems incredible that there can be enough space in the “solid”ground underfoot to hold all this water.据此,我们可以思维正向延伸到其实,地下是可以存留足够的水的,看选项:A反义,错误。

B非定位内容,排除,C与推理一致,D也不是可以定位后得到的信息,排除。

还有两种不很常见的解题思维:托福阅读推理题做题思维:题干细节思维直接根据题干细节,结合定位句意思就可以得到观点对比得出答案即可。

Paragraph 5: Ir has not been common at Earth’s since the very beginning of the planet’s history. Because it usually exists in a metallic state, it was preferentially incorporated in Earth’s core as the planet cooled and consolidated. Ir is found in high concentrations in some meteorites, in which the solar system’s original chemical composition is preserved. Even today, microscopic meteorites continually bombard Earth, falling on both land and sea. By measuring how many of these meteorites fall to Earth over a given period of time, scientists can estimate how long it might have taken to deposit the observed amount of Ir in the boundary clay. These calculations suggest that a period of about one million years would have been required. However, other reliable evidence suggests that the deposition of the boundary clay could not have taken one million years. So the unusually high concentration of Ir seems to require a special explanation.10. Paragraph 5 implies that a special explanation of Ir in the boundary clay is needed because○the Ir in microscopic meteorites reaching Earth during the Cretaceous period would have been incorporated into Earth’s core○the Ir in the boundary clay was deposited much more than a million years ago○the concentration of Ir in the boundary clay is higher than in microscopic meteorites○the amount of Ir in the boundary clay is too great to have come from microscopic meteorites during the time the boundary clay was deposited思维解析:以special explanation定位到So the unusually high concentration of Ir seems to require a special explanation所以结合题目看前一句,说boundary clay的沉积不需要花一百万年,再往前一句,说沉积那么多Ir需要一百万年,所以答案是D,因为boundary clay的沉积时间和Ir的沉积时间矛盾;A和C原文都没说;B说反了。
