托福阅读句子简化题的解题方法

托福阅读句子简化题的解题方法

托福阅读句子简化题的解题方法
句子简化题主要考察我们的paraphrase(在此可以简单理解为用比原文简单的语言来替换原文)的能力。

因此原文句式结构往往比较复杂,词汇相对比较高级,而且需要我们有比较强的逻辑分析能力。

正确选项往往会在句子结构,语法以及词汇上做改动,比如主动变被动,复合句变成简单句,同义词改写。

但是我们也不要被它吓到,只要我们有一定词汇基础(四级就可以),并掌握其解题技巧,正确解答此题还是不难的。

句子简化题的主要解题步骤是:
1.分析原句的逻辑关系,比如:转折,让步,递进,对比,等等。

2.扫描选项是否有对应的逻辑关系,如果不一样,立即排除该选项。

3.划出原句的核心词汇及概念,这些词往往是动作的发出者:主语,动作:谓语,以及动作的接受者:宾语。

4.把剩下的选项和原文进行快速比对,作出正确选择。

例1:Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage?
Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.
Some people have argued that the Pacific was settled by traders who became lost while transporting domesticated plants and animals.。

托福阅读中的同义替换

托福阅读中的同义替换

托福阅读中的同义替换在托福考试中阅读的词汇量要求最大,这给很多学生都增加了负担,其实在提到一些难词、术语时一般都会进行paraphrase,即以更常见、更简单的词来解释说明这些词,通俗的说就是将这些不太好理解的单词进行同义替换。

一般说来,我们可以从如下几个方面来进行paraphrase转述表达:1. 同义词、反义词的替换AThe elephant is another animal that lives in groups. An elephant herd usually has from twenty to forty members. The elephants in theherd depend on one another for help in time of trouble.解析:此处groups/ herd是同义词;BDinosaurs were ancient species of reptiles. They lived on Earth for 160 million years. Some dinosaurs were as small as rabbits; others were enormous. Some ate meat, and others ate plants. They disappeared about 65 million years ago. Scientists believe that they starved to death. They think the climate changed quickly and caused many plants to die.解析:此处lived/ disappeared;small/enormous; meat /plants均为反义词词组;2. 词义词性的替换CRecently, more airport officers have been shocked by the growth of animal smuggling. Sometimes, they find live turtles, lizards, frogs, and snakes in passengers' carry-on bags. Smugglers use several tricks to bring animals through airports. They put live snakes into film boxes and birds into tennis ball cans. Police even found an iguana taped to a man's chest. Not all animals are smuggled alive, however. Many die on the way. Animal body parts are also found. These include antlers, skins, dried organs, hooves, or feet.解析:此处smuggling、Smugglers、smuggled都是单词smuggle的不同形式,为了表达不同的词性,做不同的成分,分别使用了不同的词性和词义。

教你怎么paraphrase避免托福口语写作雷同

教你怎么paraphrase避免托福口语写作雷同

很多同学在看了机经答案(例如口语写作范文)后,都有一种担心,就是在考场上如果也这么写会不会被判雷同呢?我们知道ETS有一个E-rater system,广泛应用于比如GRE或者Toefl的写作评分中,当然电脑评分只能是一种辅助,最终还是要靠human raters来确定分数。

虽然ETS从来没有透露过E-rater是怎么运作的,但有一点我们可以肯定,就是它一定是有能力去通过对比数据库中的考生作文,很快地“侦测”到哪两篇或者哪几篇文章具有太多的雷同之处,然后对分数进行处理。

但不论是人工还是电脑,到底怎么掌握这个度,确实就不好说了,ETS也不可能让我们知道。

所以有些同学就特别紧张,怕看了范文后,因为别人也在看,会不会写出来的一样后被判雷同?博主认为大家不用过于担心。

首先,思路方面,即使雷同也没关系。

毕竟同一个题目,想出的理由甚至例子都一样是很正常的。

其次,在一篇文章里有相似甚至相同的语言表达也不足为怪,只要不是大段的照抄,“触发”了系统“报警”,应该都没问题。

那有同学问了,什么才叫“大段的照抄”呢?这个问题很难量化,但我想只要考生把范文作为“参考”,而不是“背诵”的材料,就不会有问题。

换句话说,范文的思路、论证方式、文章结构、段落布局、一些关键词句的搭配组合、实用精彩的句型等,都是可以背也可以套用的。

但不要逐字逐句逐段地去背,指望考试的时候原封不动的默写出来,这样一来万一另一个和你同时考试的同学也这么做了,就真的有雷同的风险了;二来,背别人写的文章肯定是费时费力。

考试的时候为了回忆文章内容,反而减缓了写作的速度,而且有可能因为背了这句忘了那句,写出的文章变得支离破碎失去连贯。

最后,避免雷同的最有效办法之一就是paraphrase(改写),这也是美国教育体系中强调的一种技能,特别是在写论文时,为了避免plagiarism(剽窃抄袭),一定要学会paraphrase,就是用自己的语言来表达相同的意思,可以借鉴原文的内容,但要会用各种方法进行改写,达到“神似形不似”的境界。

托福阅读常考词汇题解题技巧

托福阅读常考词汇题解题技巧

托福阅读常考词汇题解题技巧托福阅读常考词汇题解题技巧词汇题常见题目形式:The word/phrase…in the passage is closest in meaning to…The word/phrase…in the passage means…The word/phrase…in paragraph…Refers to…what is…?或许,很多同学会说我的词汇量非常有限,在考试中遇到这种词汇题,如果不认识就无计可施,只能靠第六感了。

其实,托福阅读中涉及到的词汇题还是有一定的解题规律的,以下将分两种类型进行讲解:一、熟悉的词汇当所考词汇是你认识的词时,分两步:直接在所给的四个选项中找出相近词;将选定的选项代入考察词汇所在的原文语境中,验证是否符合句意,以防止一词多义的情况。

例如:TPO-5中的一篇文章Minerals and Plants中的第二题:2. The word "exhibit" in the passage is closest in meaning toA. fight offB. showC. causeD. spread解题过程:这是一道词汇题。

所考词汇exhibit是高频词汇,它的基本意思是“展示、显示”。

因此,选项Bshow是exhibit的同义词;将其代入exhibit所在的语境中进行验证,原句“Nitrogen-deficient plants exhibit manyof the symptoms just described.”可提取主干(Plants exhibitsymptoms),将选项B代入即“植物显示症状”符合语境,因此,选项B正确。

二、不认识的词汇遇到不认识的词汇,千万不要归因于自己词汇量不足,无计可施进而放弃。

托福阅读中的词汇题存在一定的推理规律,这时候要采取以下措施:找到考察词汇所在的句子,寻找推理线索(95%的词汇题都暗含线索),由线索得出的关联信息,分析句意或主干进行推理判断及排除。

托福阅读做题切忌想太多了解选项设置原理很重要托福阅读选项设置原理简介ETS在设置选项时,会消失许多迷惑性的、看似与原文相像的信息;比如A、B选项实际都是原文本身不存在、却被随便推断出来的信息,而这种选项肯定错;同时正确答案会与原文发生paraphrase, 中文俗称“同义转述”。

托福阅读做题思路实例讲解既然思路已经明确了,那么我们看下面一道题目:The numbers of deer have fluctuated markedly since the entry of Europeans into Puget Sound country. The early explorers and settlers told of abundant deer in the early 1800s and yet almost in the same breath bemoaned the lack of this succulent game animal. David Douglas, Scottish botanical explorer of the 1830s, found a disturbing change in the animal life around the fort during the period between his first visit in 1825 and his final contact with the fort in 1832. A recent Douglas biographer states: The deer which once picturesquely dotted the meadows around the fort were gone [in 1832], hunted to extermination in order to protect the crops.Q:According to the paragraph, how had Fort Vancouver changed by the time David Douglas returned in 1832?A:The fort had become the headquarters for the Hudsons Bay Company.B:Deer had begun populating the meadows around the fort.C:Deer populations near the fort had been destroyed.D:Crop yields in the area around the fort had decreased.答案和思路分析答案是C。

托福阅读paraphrase题型解题思路技巧实例分析
托福阅读中有一种题型会要求大家概括解释某个段落或是某个长难句,并给出选项让大家选择,今天小编给大家带来了托福阅读paraphrase题型解题思路技巧实例分析。

希望能够帮助到大家,下面小编就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。

托福阅读paraphrase题型解题思路技巧实例分析
托福阅读中的paraphrase问题如何应对?
在托福阅读中,还有一类题型经常出现,那就是paraphrase。

这类问题需要大家在给出的选项选择与文章中的长难句意义相近的一句话。

这类问题还是有一定难度的,因为选项中存在一些干扰项。

那么这类问题有哪些解题技巧呢?
Strategies to answer this question:
1. 划分句子主谓宾,充分理解句子意思;
2. 将句子大意用自己的话复述一遍,简化句子成分;
3. 看问题选项中有没有跟刚复述的句子意义相似的句子;
4. 选出正确答案后,看一下其他错误选项。

这些错误选项有的意思跟原文不同,有的漏掉了原文中的重要内容。

找出这些错误,确保万无一失。

Example:
大家先来看一个例子:
Rather than sell the painting, which is most likely worth millions of dollars, the Jesuits decided to make it available to the nation of Ireland for viewing. Thus, the painting is on “indefinite loan” to the National Gallery of Ireland. Nevertheless, the painting continues its travels as it features in exhibitions around the world, from the United States to Amsterdam.
Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence?
a. The National Gallery of Ireland now owns the painting.
b. The National Gallery of Ireland bought the painting from the Jesuits.
c. The National Gallery of Ireland can display the painting, but the Jesuits still own it.
d. The National Gallery of Ireland can display the painting as long as they allow it to travel.
想要回答正确,就要准确理解文中indefinite loan的意思。

"Loan”可以理解为an object is being lent,那么这句话的意思就很明白了。

尽管爱尔兰国家画廊展出了这幅画,但他的所有者仍是Jesuits。

这样就可以排除A项跟B项。

D项应改为:while the gallery can display the painting—this is not contingent upon it traveling.

(TPO43,48)

托福阅读长难句参考翻译:
科学家们通过拼凑很多小的历史证据,来试图尽可能多地记录过去的厄尔尼诺现象,例如海面温度记录、气压和降水的日常观察,南美洲渔业记录,以及追溯到15世纪的西班牙殖民者的作品。

29. But as more and more accumulations of strata were cataloged in more and more places, it became clear that the sequences of rocks sometimes differed from region to region and that no rock type was ever going to become a reliable time marker throughout the world. (TPO 6 William Smith)
托福阅读长难句句子分析
本句的主句是it became clear,而as引导的则是时间状语从句,表示“随着……”。

主句中的it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面两个that引导的名词性从句,也就是主语从句,它们也是本句理解的重点所在。

托福阅读词汇精记
strata表示“地层”,它的单数形式是stratum。

sequences of rocks指的是“岩层顺序”。

catalog也可拼作catalogue(英式拼法),作动词时,表示“把……编目分类”, 比如:He catalogued all the insects in his collection. 他把所收集到的昆虫编目分类。

catalog也可以作名词,表示“商品目录或购物指南”。

differ from sth. to sth.,表示“从……到……不同”,可以借鉴到写作中,比如:The attitude toward shopping online differs from person to person. 对于网上购物,不同的人有着不同的态度。

托福阅读长难句参考译文
但是,随着越来越多的地方出现日益增多的地层分类,清晰的事实表明:有时岩层顺序是因地区不同而发生变化,全世界还没有一种岩层能成为可靠的地质年代的标志。
