6000-9000是雅思單詞的數(shù)量,有些人感覺(jué)2000都已經(jīng)太多,雅思閱讀是在聽(tīng)力,寫(xiě)作,口語(yǔ)中對(duì)單詞想對(duì)要求高的科目,質(zhì)量卻沒(méi)哪么嚴(yán),可以明白意思就差不多。有時(shí),我們跟據(jù)上下文也能猜出其中的意思。下面工阿卡索就教大家提升雅思閱讀高分必學(xué)技巧,并列關(guān)系猜詞法。
許多同學(xué)在雅思閱讀過(guò)程中,沒(méi)有去考慮邏輯關(guān)系詞的作用,使得雅思閱讀過(guò)程中對(duì)文章的理解能力不足。實(shí)際上,英文文章中有許多邏輯詞,這些詞都在直接或間接影響我們對(duì)文章理解,把這些邏輯詞很好的用在文章閱讀和做題上。雅思閱讀中的邏輯劃分為,讓步、并列、遞進(jìn)、因果、比較關(guān)系等。今天,我們主要來(lái)分析并列關(guān)系法。提升雅思閱讀高分,也可以和純外教一對(duì)一交流,可以參加阿卡索外教在線一對(duì)一,雅思高分保分班,還有免費(fèi)試聽(tīng)課:ttp://www.krbn.com.cn/lps/content/ystf_test.htm?_s=lo&search=11110
這些就是并列關(guān)系詞:and, or, also, not only?…but also…, both?…and…, not?…but…等,其中and這個(gè)單詞出現(xiàn)的頻率最高,它作為并列關(guān)系詞所體現(xiàn)出來(lái)的并列關(guān)系也被我們利用得最多。下面我們來(lái)看看并列關(guān)系詞在閱讀中的作用。
1.如果and前后連接的是單詞的話,那么這兩個(gè)詞很有可能是“類別一致”(多為前后是名詞的情況)或“方向一致”(多為前后是動(dòng)詞、形容詞或副詞的情況),如:
AIS scientists work across a number of sports, applying skills learned in one - such as building muscle strength in golfers - to others, such as swimming and squash. (squash和swimming為并列關(guān)系,可以推測(cè)squash是一項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng),此為“類別一致”)
Researchers, now analysing the results of data gathered in 1994, say arthritis, high blood pressure and circulation problems - the major medical complaints in this age group - are troubling a smaller proportion every year. (arthritis, high blood pressure?和circulation problems為并列關(guān)系,可以推測(cè)arthritis是一種疾病,此為“類別一致”)
The prospects for energy from tidal currents are far better than from wind because the flows of water are predictable and constant. (predictable?和constant意思接近,方向一致)
The continuous and reckless use of synthetic chemicals for the control of pests which pose a threat to agricultural crops and human health is proving to be counter-productive. (continuous和reckless在此都有否定方向性)
很多年前,讀到過(guò)一篇介紹阿姆斯特朗的文章,里面有一個(gè)用法,至今印象深刻:
However, everything changed dramatically and drastically in October of 1996, shortly after his 25th birthday. (dramatically?和drastically在此含義近似,方向一致;疊加使用表示強(qiáng)調(diào),這在英文中是一種修辭手法,叫押頭韻——首字母發(fā)音相同,詞性相同的兩個(gè)詞連用,一般表示強(qiáng)調(diào))
2.or也有這樣的用法,但是相對(duì)的,or更加接近“含義近似”:
The water in the irrigation canals is still or very slow-moving and thus cannot carry sediment, Stanley explains. (still和slow-moving含義近似)
Even more impressively, DNA analysis of the fungi suggests that the ants improve or modify the fungi by regularly swapping and sharing strains with neighbouring ant colonies. (improve和modify含義近似)
The sense of smell, or olfaction, is powerful. (The sense of smell和olfaction含義近似)
3.另外一些表達(dá)并列關(guān)系的詞或短語(yǔ),當(dāng)前后在說(shuō)兩件并列的事時(shí),也會(huì)用不同的詞來(lái)表達(dá)近似的含義:
Apart from engendering widespread ecological disorders, pesticides have contributed to the emergence of a new breed of chemical-resistant, highly lethal superbugs.
此處apart from體現(xiàn)前后兩件事為并列關(guān)系(Apart from A, B?…意思是“除了A, B還怎么怎么樣”,用法類似于in addition to),engender和emergence雖然詞性不同,但是含義接近。
許多考生應(yīng)該也可以看得出,我用這種方法進(jìn)行并列關(guān)系來(lái)猜詞的時(shí)候,只要看懂一個(gè)單詞,那么就可以根據(jù)這個(gè)詞猜另一個(gè)詞的類別及方向。這就是提升雅思閱讀高分必學(xué)技巧,希望對(duì)大家有幫助。
