做此類題一要抓住有關(guān)的數(shù)據(jù),二要從眾多的信息中找出那些有用的信息,三要抓住一些關(guān)鍵詞。實際上,上述兩題都可看作數(shù)據(jù)推算題,一題是算錢,另一題是算時間。
通過閱讀我們發(fā)現(xiàn)布告中的所有數(shù)據(jù)都是有用的,那么關(guān)鍵詞是:grown-ups, children, over 12, under 12, opening time, except Friday。第一題中Mr Smith是成人,須買3塊錢的門票,他一個14歲的兒子需買2塊錢的門票,另一個不滿12歲的兒子可免票,所以Mr Smith先生需花5塊錢,B是正確答案。第二題C是正確答案。
四. 主旨大意題
此類題型用以考查學(xué)生對文章主題或中心思想的領(lǐng)會和理解。如:
What does the passage mainly talk about? What is the main idea of this passage? What does the writer want to tell us? What is the best title of this passage?
每一篇文章都有它的主題句,而每一個段落也各有主題句,它一般都用來表示一篇文章或一個段落的主旨大意。因此,找出文章和各段落的主題句(往往為第一句或最后一句)是解題的關(guān)鍵。抓住了主題句,文章的最佳標(biāo)題也就不難確定了。如:推理判斷題哪一節(jié)中的例文我們給它起個什么標(biāo)題好呢?我們在它后面再加上一段話:
One dollar for changing a new part sounds reasonable(合理的), but the $ 29,999 is exactly the value of wisdom and knowledge.
。 )The best title for the passage should be ________ .
A. The Value of Knowledge B. Helpless Workers C. The Expensive Machine D. The Lucky Factory
文中的最后一句是整篇文章的主題句,也就是文章的標(biāo)題,即:The Value of Knowledge知識的價值,A為正確答案! ∥. 經(jīng)驗常識題 此類題主要是考查中學(xué)生應(yīng)有的多項綜合知識,包括:社會、天文、史地、科普及生活常識等。此類題往往與文章沒有直接關(guān)系,學(xué)生只能憑自己的常識進行判斷,然后做出符合規(guī)律的正確選擇。如:
。 )We can guess when a giraffe sees a tiger ______ .
A. it will run away as fast as possible B. it will run to eat the tiger C. it will make the tiger bring it something to eat D. it will make one of the smallest
animals bring the tiger something to eat
