參加雅思考試,考生總是會(huì)遇到各種各樣的問題,導(dǎo)致自己不能取得理想的成績,下面小編為大家?guī)砹搜潘奸喿x考試常出現(xiàn)的陷阱,一起來看看吧!
1、偷換概念陷阱
有時(shí)候選項(xiàng)中雖然與文中有對(duì)應(yīng)的詞,但選項(xiàng)中偷換了關(guān)鍵性的成分(如謂語部分),使得答案錯(cuò)誤。如:
From the experiment described in Part 1, the writer found that the blind subjects
A、had good understanding of symbols representing movement。
B、could control the movement of wheels very accurately。
C、worked together well as a group in solving problems。
D、got better results than the sighted undergraduates. (劍4, Test 1, Q29 )
這道題目里面,很多考生會(huì)選C選項(xiàng),因?yàn)樵睦镉羞@么一句話: … the blind not only figured out meanings for each line of motion, but as a group they generally came up with the same meaning at least as frequently as did sighted subjects.但是C選項(xiàng)偷換了group的概念,把blind subjects說成是組隊(duì)來一起解決問題,這顯然是文章中沒有交代的。
2、偷換數(shù)字陷阱
選擇題的特點(diǎn)便是選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行深度的同義轉(zhuǎn)換。但是如果個(gè)別選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)了數(shù)字,往往意味著這個(gè)數(shù)字直接來源于文章,沒有進(jìn)行任何同義替換。這種干擾選項(xiàng)對(duì)于根本讀不懂原文的考生有著致命的誘惑力,因?yàn)橹挥袛?shù)字是熟悉的,其它的單詞都讀不懂。數(shù)字選項(xiàng)中,數(shù)字在文章中都有提及,但經(jīng)常是通過移花接木的形式出現(xiàn)的,以干擾考生的注意力。比如:
(劍3, Test 4, Q29 )The four divisions
A、each employed a staff of 500 clerks
B、each had equal levels of productivity
C、had identical patterns of organization
D、were randomly chosen for the experiment
原文中,數(shù)字500的確有所提及,但原文講的是The study covered 500 clerical employees in fourparallel divisions。500名員工是實(shí)驗(yàn)所包含的總?cè)藬?shù)。
3、偷換相似陷阱
同理,如果題目中出現(xiàn)的個(gè)別單詞與原文中的用詞一模一樣,尤其是一些經(jīng)常被同義替換掉的動(dòng)詞、形容詞等,這個(gè)選項(xiàng)往往就是干擾選項(xiàng)。比如例3中的D選項(xiàng),很多同學(xué)誤選了D就是因?yàn)閞andom這個(gè)詞在原文中出現(xiàn)過。但是同樣,原為是說The four divisions were assigned to two experimental programmes on a random basis.四個(gè)部門被隨機(jī)分配到兩個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)項(xiàng)目中去,而不是四個(gè)部門是被隨機(jī)挑選的。再舉一例:
The writer was surprised because the blind woman
A、drew a circle on her own initiative。
B、did not understand what a wheel look like。
C、included a symbol representing movement。
D、was the first person to use lines of motion. (劍4, Test 1, Q28 )
A選項(xiàng)幾乎與原文一樣。但是通過仔細(xì)閱讀便會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn),作者吃驚的原因并不是因?yàn)槊と藡D女自己畫了一個(gè)圈,而是因?yàn)門o show this motion, she traced a curve inside the circle 。為了顯示這種運(yùn)動(dòng),她用在圈里面畫了一個(gè)曲線。正確選項(xiàng)C選項(xiàng)與文章幾乎沒有相同之處,但仔細(xì)比對(duì)卻包含了很多同義詞轉(zhuǎn)換: traced – included; curve – symbol; show – representing; movement – motion。
