• 3. 隐含型:to summarize/ to sum up
• Example 1: Oceanography has been defined as "The
application of all sciences to the study of the sea " Before the nineteenth century ,scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between .Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings ,but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work .
• Example : A rapid means of long-distance
transportation became a necessity for the United States as settlement(新拓居地 ) spread ever farther westward. The early trains were impractical curiosities, and for along time the railroad companies met with troublesome mechanical problems. The most serious ones were the construction of rails able to bear the load, and the development of a safe, effective stopping system. Once these were solved, the railroad was established as the best means of land transportation. By 1860 there were thousands of miles of railroads crossing the eastern mountain ranges and reaching westward to the Mississippi. There were also regional southern and western lines .
技巧性的方面,我们建议大家,可采用这种方 法:
1、 拿到一篇文章,先把问题看一遍; 2、 然后阅读第一遍,不超过2分钟;
3、 找出每个段落的中心句和全文的中心句, 答案往往就在中心句所在的段落里。
4、 最后就是在段落里找答案了。
还有谨防以偏概全,偷换概念,将主流的观点 代替作者的观点等答案陷阱。
• 根据大学英语阅读理解测试能力的要求,阅读 理解的试题类型可以分为以下五大类:主旨题、 细节题、语义题、推理题和观点态度题。通过对 历年大学英语四级试题的分析,阅读理解部分五 类题型所占比重分别为:细节题占60%左右,主 旨题和推理题各占15%左右,语义题和观点态度 题各占5%左右。在近年的四级考试中,阅读理解 题型不断变化,较难的主旨类和推理类比重加大。 尽管所选材料题材广泛,包罗万象,但其体裁选 用和题型设置相对稳定,提问方式大同小异,因 而考生可通过熟悉各种题型及其应试策略,提高 阅读理解部分的做题正确率。
在备考的基础阶段,先进行模拟阅读,调整状 态,巩固词汇的记忆。阅读练习应把重点放 在真题上,比如2000年到2010年的真题阅读 需要全部细读琢磨几轮。直到每一篇文章的 单词都认识,所有的答案解析全都理解。还 可以抽时间将真题朗读一遍以培养语感。
二、阅读部分备考,词汇是基础, 同时要加强历年真题的练习
• had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile( 轮廓)of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured. It was to Maury of US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853 , for information on this matter. In the 1840s,Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings(试探)were taken investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea. The cable was laid , but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea.
