托福阅读句子插入题

托福阅读句子插入题

托福阅读考试中有10大类题型，针对这个题型的多样性，考生在备考托福阅读考试的时候就要对每一种题型进行总结。这里有8个解题步骤，大家一起来学习一下吧。

1、如果是段落之前的空，那么错误率高达百分之九十九，因为每个段的第一句往往是段落的中心句，如果把第一句内容改变了，同样也是改变了整个句子甚至段落的意思。但两段式的插入句子。第二个段落前面或者第一个段落后面的空格往往最容易是正确的。

2、空格后面出现代词"this, these, that, those, he, she,they, it, such, each, other, one, another, both, each,anybody, none, some, any"等，一般都是错的，因为代词不能跨距，如果在代词的前面加入了一句话，那么就会改变代词的指代对象。但也并不绝对，如果概念只有一个主语，其他格局出现连续指代前句，就无法排除后又代词的选项，这就是例外情况。

3、被插入的句子中如果存在指代关系，如"this, these, that, those, he, she, they, it, such, each, other, one,another, both, each, anybody, none, some, any"等，建议不选择整段最前面的空格，主要是因为插入句本身无足轻重的地位，一般不会考察段落之间的承接关系。但要明确一点，两段式插入句子除外。

4、正确的答案优先考虑段落最后的空，并不是最后一个空格，而是空格在段落的最后。因为是放在段尾的，本身对文章没有过多的印象，所以优先考虑。

5、如果空格后出现时间点，而句子又不是在强调某件事，所以一般不建议选择，时间一般和前句所发生的时间衔接较为紧密，不可拆分。

6、空格后如果出现表示转折、因果、递进等衔接词，那么这个空格可以作为次要考虑的最佳位置。因为插入句承起不到那么强悍的、连接句间逻辑关系作用的!但经过详细排查位置之后，无奈之下但能对应或前或后的信息，则可以插入。

7、插入句中如果出现积极或消极概念，有两种可能，第一、插入句为消极和前句构成转折对立，则前一句存在积极概念;第二、插入句和前句构成递进解释，则前一句为存在消极概念。

8、举例之前，问句之前都不作为参考的位置。此外，插入句如果存在表示"也"的内容，那么看第一次出现"也"后面的内容或者概念。

托福阅读词汇题怎么寻找线索

很多同学在面对托福阅读考试中的词汇题的时候，都感觉比较苦恼。想要更好的解答这类题型，大家除了基本的练习之外，还要学会寻找线索，即使我们不能理解到词汇的意思，也能够利用技巧，来辅助我们更好的解答题型。

在托福阅读文章中被考到的单词或短语会被用阴影标识出来

☆ In the case of a word, the question might be :

The word X in the passage is closest in meaning to

☆ In the case of a phrase, the question might be :

In stating X, the author means that

The phrase X in the passage is closest in meaning to

其中，以第一种形式，也就是考察考生某单词在文章上下文中意思的问题类型最为常见。

那么，该如何答题：

1. 在文章中定位到阴影标识的单词或短语。

2. 仔细阅读该词或短语所在句子。

3. 在句子中寻找可以帮助理解阴影标识的单词或短语的具体意思的线索。

4. 选择答案，并将所选择的单词或短语放入原文进行检验，以确认这个句子在全文中仍是有意义的。

选择答案时，不要仅仅因为某个选项符合该单词的某一个正确意思就将其作为正确选项;题目考察的是作者在文章上下文中使用了那一个词义。

如何利用各种托福阅读词汇题线索

☆ 结构线索【即指明句子中各成分之间关系的特定单词、短语和语法结构】

1. 对比

Example: OG Practice Set 5, question 6

Passage 5: In this newly emerging economic order, workers sometimes organized to protect their rights and traditional ways of life. Craftworkers such as carpenters and tailors formed unions and in 1834 individual unions came together in the National Trades’ Union. The labor movement gathered some momentum in the decade before the Panic of 1837, but in the depression that followed, labor’s strength collapsed…

The phrase gathered some momentum in the passage is closest in meaning to

○ made progress

○ became active

○ caused changes

○ combined forces

解析：单词readily所在的文章句子中出现转折词but, 根据文章中but后面的内容我们可以得出短语gathered some momentum在此句中的意思为made progress。

2. 例子

Example: OG Practice Set 4, question 10

Passage 8: One cognitive theory suggests that aggravating and painful events trigger unpleasant feelings. These feelings in turn, can lead to aggressive action, but not automatically. Cognitive factors intervene. People decide whether they will act aggressively or not on other people’s motives. Supporting evidence comes from research showing that aggressive people often distort other people’s motives. For example, they assume that other people mean them harm when they do not.

The word distort in the passage is closest in meaning to

○ mistrust

○ misinterpret

○ criticize

○ resent

解析：distort所在的文章句子后出现“for example”, 根据for example中的内容，我们可以得出distort在此句中的意思为misinterpret。
