从样卷看,此次涉及改革题目的特点是:
1、做题时间10~15分钟(整体阅读包括选词填空、匹配和精度,共计40分钟);
2、四级样卷显示需要将10道题目信息配对到9个段落中;
3、六级样卷显示需要将10道题目信息配对到15个段落中;
4、考试说明提到,某段可能被用到两次,而某段可能完全不被涉及。
5、这类题型的出题形式为:
题干给出原文的若干条细节信息,要求考生找出文中分别有这些信息的段落(即题目当中会问道:
whichparagraphcontainsthefollowinginformation?
)。
难点分析:
1、顺序原则被打破
段落细节信息配对题之所以让无数考生闻之色变,主要在于这种题目打破了解答雅思阅读题目传统的阅读技巧和解题思路。
首先,作为匹配题代表,这种题型明显不会遵守其他主流题型的“顺序原则”,考生从文章开头到结尾定位的方法显然行不通;
2、题目均为长句形式
其次,题目当中的表述通常是极其复杂和繁琐的名词短语或者长难句型,在试图寻找合适的定位词之前,考生往往就业已被题干错中复杂的表述搞得云里雾里了;
例如四级样卷第51题:
ThenumberofforeignstudentsapplyingtoU.S.universitiesdecreasedsharplyafterSeptember11duetochangesinthevisaprocess.
3、定位词模糊
即使考生能够排除万难,读懂题目陈述中晦涩难懂的意思,寻找定位词仍然存在很大的障碍,因为这类题目往往不会出现非常明显的可以实践拿来主义的明显定位词(数字、时间、地点、人物、特殊字体和特殊符号等等),即使侥幸被我们碰到一个,这个定位词也通常和文章主题联系密切,且出现多次,所以并没有太大实用意义,例如上题中的U.S.;
4、两题对一段的可能性增加干扰性
最后,一般选择题至少是一对一进行对应的,如果能够成功选出一对,那么就至少可以排除一个选项。
但是在段落细节信息对应题当中,四、六级样卷明确提醒:
Youmaychooseaparagraphmorethanonce.
一段可能被用两次。
这样最有效的排除法在这里也就再无用武之地了。
所以,从上面四个特点不难看出,如果想从根本上解决这种题型,考试方的思路是希望考生能够从头到尾读完一遍文章,从宏观和微观两个方面全面掌握文章的结构和细节信息之后再进行解题的,但是这种思路对于阅读水平和单词量都有限的四、六级考生来说有些难
针对四级样题,我们对四级考生提出以下做题建议:
一、先看题再看文章
1、段落细节信息配对题的陈述虽然都是文章细节信息,但是表述基本都是围绕文章标题或者每一段落的主题进行描述的,通过快速阅读题干部分表述,可以迅速了解文章主旨大意。
如四级样卷中Q46~Q48
46Americanuniversitiespreparetheirundergraduatesforglobalcareersbygivingthemchancesforinternationalstudyorinternship.
47Sincethemid-1970s,theenrollmentofoverseasstudentshasincreasedatanannualrateof3.9percent.
48TheenrollmentofinternationalstudentswillhaveapositiveimpactonAmericaratherthanthreatenitscompetitiveness.
熟悉四级场景词汇的同学一定认识:
university,enrollment,students名词形式,文章关于美国大学教育或学生的主题就此迅速清楚;在考生看过文章标题UniversitiesBranchOut之后,通过快速预览这道段落细节信息配对题的题干部分,考生可以马上了解到文章所围绕的主题是美国大学的扩张,即使题干中的每一个表述并不是文章的Topicsentence(主旨句),但是却都与文章的主题息息相关的。
