another set of tips

TIPS FOR REORDER PARAGRPH

Parajumbles are jumbled paragraphs. Basically, you are given a paragraph – but the sentences are not in the right order. It‘s up to you to untie this knot and rearrange the sentences so that they logically make sense. Normally instructions for this type of questions will read ―Choose the most logical order of sentences from among the given choices to construct a coherent paragraph‖.

So go through these

1- TRANSITION WORDS

Transition words make the shift from one idea to another very smooth. They organize and connect the sentences logically. Observing the transition words found in a sentence can often give you a clue about the sentence that will come before/after that particular sentence.

Given below are some commonly used transition words:

also, again, as well as, besides, furthermore, in addition, likewise, moreover, similarly,

consequently, hence, otherwise, subsequently, therefore, thus, as a rule, generally, for instance, for example, for one thing, above all, aside from, barring, besides, in other words, in short, instead, likewise, on one hand, on the other hand, rather, similarly, yet, but, however, still, nevertheless, first of all, to begin with, at the same time, for now, for the time being, in time, later on, meanwhile, next, then, soon, the meantime, later, while, earlier, simultaneously, afterward, in conclusion, with this in mind, after all, all in all to sum-up.

EXAMPLE WITH TRANSITION WORDS

A. But in the industrial era destro ying the enemy‘s productive capacity means bombing the factories which are located in the cities.

B. So in the agrarian era, if you need to destroy the enemy‘s productive capacity, what you want to do is bum his fields, or if you‘re really vicious, salt th em.

C. Now in the information era, destroying the enemy‘s productive capacity means destroying the information infrastructure.

D. How do you do battle with your enemy?

E. The idea is to destroy the enemy‘s productive capacity, and depending upon the economic foundation, that productive capacity is different in each case

F. With regard to defense, the purpose of the military is to defend the nation and be prepared to do battle with its enemy.

EXPLANATION FOR THE ANSWER transition word ―but‖ in the first sent ence. It signifies that the sentence is expressing an idea contrary to an idea expressed in some previous sentence. Now we need to find that previous sentence. If we further look at the beginning of the first sentence, it says ―but in the industrial era…‖ which suggests that the contrariness is with respect to eras.

Looking further, we see that sentence B and C are also starting with statement about eras. But the transition word at the start of C is ―now‖ which expresses present era and hence it cannot chronologically come before any other past era. That is, if information era is the present era, talk about any other era will come before this. So sentence B is the correct sentence to come before the first sentence.

Likewise, sentence C is the correct sentence to come after the first sentence (sentence C is continuing the idea). Therefore, we have the link BAC.

We see that option 1, 3 and 4 all have the link BAC. Furthermore, all the three options have the link EBAC. Therefore, we only need to arrange D and F. The sentence F states that ―The purpose is…to battle with the enemy‖ and D questions ―how do you battle with the enemy?‖ Therefore, D will come .

FDEBAC is the correct arrangement.

2- PERSONAL PRONOUN –

Personal pronouns are he, she, it, him, her, they, you, your etc. Remember that personal pronouns always refer to a person, place or thing etc. Therefore, if a sentence contains a personal pronoun without mentioning the person, place or object it is referring to, the person, place or object must have come in the previous sentence . EXAMPLE WITH PERSONAL PRONOUN .

A. Although there are large regional variations, it is not infrequent to find a large number of people sitting here and there and doing nothing.

B. Once in office, they receive friends and relatives who feel free to call any time without prior appointment.

C. While working, one is struck by the slow and clumsy actions and reactions, indifferent attitudes, procedure rather than outcome orientation, and the lack of consideration for others.

D. Even those who are employed often come late to the office and leave early unless they are forced to be punctual.

E. Work is not intrinsically valued in India.

F. Quite often people visit ailing friends and relatives or go out of their way to help them in their personal matters even during office hours.Look at the personal pronoun ―they‖ in sentence B: Once in office, they receive friends and relatives who feel free to call any time without prior appointment. This they must be referring to some people. The reference to some people only comes in sentences A, D, and F. Therefore, one of the sentences will come before sentence B. Let‘s see the link AB,DB, and FB; Link AB- Although there are large regional variations, it is not infrequent to find a large number of people sitting here and there and doing nothing. Once in office, they receive friends and relatives who feel free to call any time without prior appointment. Link DB- Even those who are employed often come late to the office and leave early unless they are forced to be punctual. Once in office, they receive friends and relatives who feel free to call any time without prior appointment.

Link FB- Quite often people visit ailing friends and relatives or go out of their way to help them in their personal matters even during office hours. Once in office, they receive friends and relatives who feel free to call any time without prior appointment. Which of these links makes sense? Only link DB seems coherent. Now, we examine the options with link DB. We see that options 1 and 3 have link DB in them. Also, both the options have link ADBF. Therefore, ADBF is a link. Now we only need to place sentences E and C. We can do that by reading the sentences in the order given in options 1 and 3.

THE FLOW OF AUTHORS IDEA SHOULD BE COMPLETELY LOGICAL; THE AUTHOR DOES NOT JUMP FROM ONE IDEA TO OTHER SUDDENLY.

In link EC, sentence E is talking about work not being valued whereas sentence C is

talking about people being clumsy, indifferent, inconsiderate etc. Sentence C is NOT talking ab out value of work. It is talking about people‘s behavior. Therefore, EC cannot be a logical flow.

EADBFC IS THE CORRECT ANSWER

3- DEMONSTRATIVE PRONOUN-

The demonstrative pronouns are ―this,‖ ―that,‖ ―these,‖ and ―those.‖ ―This‖ and ―that‖ are used to refe r to singular nouns or noun phrases and ―these‖ and ―those‖ are used to refer to plural nouns and noun phrases. Whenever a sentence contains a demonstrative pronoun without mentioning the noun or the noun phrase, it means that the previous sentence must be mentioning that noun or noun phrase. Finding that noun or noun phrase helps us connect two sentences.

EXAMPLE WITH DEMONSTRATIVE PRONOUN

A. Michael Hofman, a poet and translator, accepts this sorry fact without approval or complaint.

B. But thanklessness and impossibility do not daunt him.

C. He acknowledges too ―in fact he returns to the point often ‖ that best translators of poetry always fail at some level.

D. Hofman feels passionately about his work, and this is clear from his writings.

E. In terms of the gap between worth and rewards, translators come somewhere near nurses and street-cleaners.

Again an easy one. Notice the demonstrative pronoun ―this‖ in sentence A: Michael Hofman, a poet and translator, accepts this sorry fact without approval or complaint. Also note that sentence A is introducing Michael Hofman (Michael Hofman, a poet and translator,…) and will thereby come before every sentence containing the personal pronoun he or him. So which sorry fact is sentence A referring to? It can only be t he fact found in sentence E. Also, other sentences contain ―he‖ or ―him‖. Therefore, EA is a link. Link EA is contained in option 1, 3 and 4. But in 4, sentence D is coming before sentence A, and this cannot happen because sentence A should be before any other sentence referring to Hofman as sentence A is introducing Hofman. Therefore, we are left with options 1 and 3. The difference between options 1 and 3 is the order of sentence D and B.Link DB- Hofman feels passionately about his work, and this is clear from his writings. But thanklessness and impossibility do not daunt him.

EACBD IS THE RIGHT ANSWER

4- ACRONYM APPROACH

– In PJ we encounter full and short names sometimes acronyms of some term or institution.

Ex-World Trade Organization – WTO

Dr. Manmohan Singh – Dr. Singh

Karl Marx – Marx

President George W. Bush – President bush or the president

EXAMPLE WITH THIS

The rule is that if both full form as well as short form is present in different sentences, then the sentence containing full form will come before the sentence containing short form.

1. If you are used to having your stimulation come in from outside, your mind never develops its own habits of thinking and reflecting

2. Marx thought that religion was the opiate, because it soothed people‘s pain a nd suffering and prevented them from rising in rebellion

3. If Karl Marx was alive today, he would say that television is the opiate of the people.

4. Television and similar entertainments are even more of an opiate because of their addictive tendencies.

3241 THE RIGHT ABSWER

5-TIME SEQUENCE APPROACH-Either dates or time sequence indicating words: Be aware of the time indication either by giving years – or by using time indicating words. Arrange the sentences using their proper time sequence. Here are a few time sequence indicating words -Before after later

EXAMPLE FOR THIS

1. Then two astronomers—the German, Johannes Kepler, and the Italian, Galileo Galilei-started publicly to support the Copernican theory, despite the fact that the orbits it predicted did not quite match the ones observed.

2. His idea was that the sun was stationary at the centre and that the earth and the planets move in circular orbits around the sun.

3. A simple model was proposed in 1514 by a Polish priest, Nicholas Copernicus.

4. Nearly a century passed before this idea was taken serious

SOLUTION EXPLANATION The 3rd sentence talks about the time event and other time vents follow it in a chronological order. So

3241 IS THE RIGHT ANSWER

6- ARTICLE APPROACH

Articles can be divided into two categories –

1. Definite (the) and

2. Indefinite (a and an).

When the author uses ?a / an‘ – he wants to make a general statement – wants to

introduce the noun followed by a/an for the first time but when he uses ?the‘ he wants to refer back to some previ ously discussed noun. It means having ?the‘ is very unlikely in the opening sentence. If ?a/an‘ and ?the‘ both are used for the same noun then the sentence containing ?the‘ will come after the sentence containing a/an.

7- NOUN , PRONOUN AND ADJECTIVE APPROACH– Whenever pronoun comes – it will come in the immediate sentence containing the respective noun.

i. e. A sequence can be like this

Noun

Pronoun

Pronoun

Pronoun

or like

Noun Pronoun

………….. no pronoun

Noun

Pronoun

i.e. the pronoun sequence will continue till it is halted by a break (i.e. a sentence containing no pronoun) then if necessary it will start with the noun again. We can‘t write pronoun after a break. It is not a correct form of writing.

7. All the paragraphs should have a relation with others and try to identify that.

8. Follow general steps like – years wise – Stages of life : Birth ,

school/education ,marriage,children, death- Stages of a butterfly .. etc

9. It is very important you need write the correct sequence order. How many you write correct sequences you would be awarded like that.

10. After finish the test , review your answer and check the meaning in flow . correct or not

PTE学术英语考试

PTE 学术英语考试 PTE 简介 PTE学术英语考试是于2009年10月26日推出的新一代的国际性英语水平测试,由金融时报的母公司英国培生集团以及GMAT 的开发机构管理专业研究生入学考试委员( GMAC )共同研究主办。 PTE 学术英语考试,英文名称Pearson Test of English Academic (PTE Academic),也被译为培生英语考试,是由培生教育集团(Pearson开发并得到GMAC(Graduate Man ageme nt Admissio n Cou ncil)认可的一款新的基于电脑的国际学术英语考试。它为那些需要学术英语的机构例如大学,高等学府以及政府部门提供了一个真实的衡量考生能力的工具。为需要通过英语考试获得赴英语国家学习机会的非英语国家的学生提供了一种新的选择。 PTE 学术英语考试融合了听说读写四种考试形式,考试时间为独立的三小时,所有听说读写四项技能的考核均在三小时内完成。考试分为三部分,口语与写作部分、阅读部分和听力部分。通过电脑自动评分,避免人为因素带来的不公正性。总分90分,分为6个分数等级,考试成绩5个工作日内网上可查。成绩两年内有效。 所有程序包括报名、付费、修改考试时间、修改考试地点、查阅成绩以及后续的向申请大学寄送考试成绩单的服务安排均在网上完成。 考试结构 全场考试需一次完成,考试总时间约为三个小时。每台考试终端计算机的屏幕上都有计时显示,提醒考生每节考试剩余的答题时间。整个考试分成说写,阅读和听力三个部分。除此之外,还有一个短暂的自我介绍以及10分钟的选择性休息。除考试成绩以外,考生会获得一份详细的成绩报告单,包括考生的个人信息和照片,考生的总分,以及各部分的分项成绩。这有助于考生了解自己的优势和薄弱环节,以便在今后的学习中将重点放在需要提高的方面。 口语与写作

英语学习考试方法

英语学习考试方法 第一部分. 听力部分 听力技巧一:学会取舍,理解内容 听力考试中最忌讳的就是词词计较,力求听懂所有词。其实,听懂所有词首 先没必要,其次也不可能。我们在日常生活中听中文时,无论听什么,注意力都不会在每一个字或词上面,而是对文段或对话内容的整体的理解上。何况我们听的是英文,在英文句子中,对不同的词本身就有弱读和重读。 听力技巧二:扫视材料,预测内容 当广播中朗读听力要求时,我们要充分利用这个时间,迅速扫视书面文字中 的题干及选项,通过扫视联系上下文,有根据地预测文段发生的时间、场所、人 物,并预测出谈话的大致内容。并且,在扫视中我们对提出的问题尤其要注意。 这样做的结果是听录音时我们可以有的放矢,做到有备而来,心中有数。 听力技巧三:注重首句,抓住主旨 在听长文段时,由于信息多,而且听力不同于阅读,朗读速度非常快,需要 我们快速做出反应,所以在听的时候就更应当注意主旨大意。在阅读中我们知道 作者一般会在首句或首段道出文段的中心大意、或对所阐述内容进行概括,有些 作者也会在结尾时再一次点题。文段中间部分主要是细节,或是作者为了证实自 己的观点,进一步举出例证,这一部分基本上是事实或是细节。了解了这个特点 后,我们在听录音材料时就可以有目的地听。如果为了解答主旨问题就要着眼于 首句,如果为了回答细节问题就要注意中间部分。 听力技巧四:简单记录,便于辨认 长文段听力中细节很多,所以只靠脑子记忆确实有困难。我们在做长文段听 力时可以做一些简单的记录。这种记录要非常简练,要记重要环节。如文中提及 的人物、事件、时间、地点、原因、方式、程度、数字、选择等信息都非常重要。 笔记要提纲挈领,达到帮助记忆、推断和答题的目的即可。记录的方法多种多样。 可以使用符号、画图、缩写形式等,只要自己能辨认就可以了。 听力技巧五:连贯记忆,准确推理 听录音时,既要不断输入、理解、存贮信息,又要不打断听的过程;既要集 中精力听,又要用心记;紧扣话题,把握说话者的思路,捕捉信号词,连贯记忆 主要信息。听完试题后,要前后联系,利用后面听到的信息补充前面漏听的或有 疑问的信息,并对听前、听中的预测和判断加以推理、分析、修正,以使理解的 准确性更高。最后提醒大家,在做听力考试试题时,要消除紧张情绪,集中注意 力。听力考试对我们不仅仅是听的能力的考查,同时是对我们心理素质的测验。 所以在做听力题前要放松自己的情绪,以愉快轻松的状态应对考试。只要我们加 强训练,训练得法,掌握一些必要的应试技巧就能够在听力中取得高分。 But 题型 形式:A:…… B:……,but …….

学士学位英语考试翻译题型解题秘笈

学士学位英语考试翻译题型解题秘笈 在学士学位英语考试复习中,翻译既是重点也是难点,在此提醒考生一定要给予足够重视。外语教育网的小编为考生整理了学士学位英语考试翻译题型解题秘笈,希望考生认真阅读和学习。 翻译部分是03年增加的题型。放在试卷的最后,共有10个小题,考试时间30分钟。翻译试题由两部分组成。第一部分为英译汉,要求考生把阅读理解文章中划线的五个句子译成中文。第二部分为汉译英,要求考生把五个难度适中的中文句子译成英文。英译汉和汉译英的句子难度均低于课文的英语文章。评分标准要求译文达意,无重大语言错误。翻译部分的目的是测试学生词汇、语法、句型方面综合运用语言的能力。 英译汉应试技巧 英译汉是运用汉语把英语所表达的思想准确而完整地重新表达出来的语言活动。在英译汉的过程中,有两点值得我们特别地注意: 1、汉语所要表达的是英语原文的内容,即句子或文章的意义,而不是句子结构; 2、在翻译过程中,英语原文的内容要准确而完整地重新表达出来,而不是将两种语言结构进行简单的转换。 英译汉的过程包括理解,分析句架表达和校核三个阶段,因此,在英译汉的过程中,往往需要考生从英语到汉语,再从汉语到英语反复的推敲。 (一)理解 理解阶段的目的在于读懂英语原文,弄清原文的意思。为了透彻理解原文,建议考生在复习和应试时采取下列步骤: 1、通读全文。通读全文的目的在于从整体上把握整篇文章的内容,理解划线的部分与文章其他部分之间的语法与逻辑关系。在段落中要搞清划线的句子和其他句子之间的关系,因为孤立地阅读划线部分的英语,往往无法理解该部分的真正含义。一篇好的文章,其前后的意思都互相关联,具有很强的逻辑性,一个单词或句子只有在具体的上下文中才能体现出确切的含义来,因此,上下文能帮助我们正确的理解划线的部分,通读全文是很重要的。但是,在通读全文的过程中应该注意,对非划线的部分不要花费时间过多,对于其中一些不太容易理解的内容也不必太在意,只是搞清大体意义即可。因为通读全文的目的在于帮助自己理解划线的部分,只要能把该部分理解透彻也就足够了。 2、分析划线部分的句子结构。从一般的翻译试题来看,划线的部分一般来说结构句子都比较复杂。复杂的句子如果不搞清楚它的语法结构,很难达到正确完整地理解原文的要求。因此正确地把握句子的结构是进行正确地翻译的关键。 3、理解分析划线部分的含义。考生不仅要弄清句子中所有实词和虚词的词汇意义,还要理解全句的整体意义。理解句子的依据除了句子本身之外,还有该句子所处的具体的语言环境。在此阶段应清楚下列问题: (1)句子中是否含有代词和其他具有指代意义的词,如果有,应根据上下文确定它们指代的内容是什么; (2)句子中的短语和一些常用的词往往具有多种含义和用法,那么,在该句中它们的具体含义是什么; (3)按照你的理解,该部分的意义是否与全篇文章的内容一致,有无相互矛盾。 总之,在动手翻译之前,首先要读懂原文,不要一上来就急于动手翻译,这样做往往会出现一种情况:该题快要翻译完了,猛然又发现自己理解有误,马上就急忙修改,搞的卷面上一塌糊涂,而且很容易忙中出错,把本应拿到的分数丢掉了,这是非常令人可惜的。 (二)表达 表达就是译者把自己从英语原文理解的内容用汉语表达出来,理解是表达的基础,表达是理解的结果,但是理解正确并不意味着一定会有正确的表达,平时做翻译练习时有同学反映,有时对原文理解之后还不知如何用汉语表达,就充分说明了这一点。这里介绍两种基本的翻译方法:直译和意译。 1、直译。所谓直译,就是在译文语言条件许可时,在译文中既保持原文的内容,又保持原文的形式。在汉语和英语两种语言中存在着许多共同之处,在对于许多英语句子的翻译过程中,完全可以采取直译的方法,这样可以获得一举两得之功效,既保持了原文的结构,又正确表达了原文的内容。但是直译不是死译和硬译,象It is asserted that…;It is believed that…这一类的结构,如果直译过来那就不伦不类了。 2、意译。汉语和英语分别属于不同的语系,两者在词汇、句法结构和表达方法上具有很多的差异。当原文的思想内容与译文的表达形式有矛盾不易采用直译的方法处理时,就应采用意译法,意译就是不拘泥于原文的形式,重点在于正确表达原文的内容。例如Do you see any green in my eye象这样的句子,只能采取意译的方法,把它翻译为“你以为我是好欺骗的吗”当然,意译并不等于乱译,胡乱地翻译是不符合“忠实”的翻译标准的。 在具体的翻译过程中,我们应该采取灵活的方法,不论是直译还是意译,只要是符合“忠实、通顺”的翻译原则,都是可取的。在翻译的过程中,我们务必注意以下几点: A、理解透彻之后再动手表达,否则表达的结果会令人莫名其妙; B、切忌在翻译时把汉语和英语对号入座,逐字逐句的对号入座的结果往往是不伦不类; C、切忌擅自增减词意,增减意义与翻译技巧中经常提到的增词法与减词法根本就不是一回事。 (三)校核 校核阶段是理解与表达的进一步深化,是对原文内容进一步核实以及对译文语言进一步推敲的阶段,因此,校核是翻译过程中一个很重要的阶段,并不是可有可无的,通过表达之后的校核,我们可以发现译文的一些问题,确保自己理解的内容很有把握地得到分数。在校核阶段,一般应注意与下列各项有关的问题(1)人名、地名、日期、方位和数字等;(2)汉语译文的词与句有无错漏;(3)修改译文中译错或表达不够准确的句子、词组或词汇;(4)有无错别字;(5)标点符号是否有误。 做汉译英时一般应经过以下步骤

最新中考英语试卷答题技巧

最新中考英语试卷答题技巧 中考英语复习:现阶段考生应该做什么 一、收集做过的试题,把所有错题抄在一个改题本上,用红色笔写上正确答案,并在错题旁边写一、两句说明错题原因,让自己加深印象,不再犯类似的错误。如还是没有明白,要及时问老师。 二、要加强阅读训练和听力训练。你现在有时间,但是千万别浪费,每天坚持阅读,练听力(有统一听力训练带)。 三、要每天利用至少半个小时的时间,大声的朗读和背诵所学过的课文、对话、单词,通过朗读和背诵达到听、说训练。答题的时候有语感。以初中英语教材第三册为重点。 四、可以做一些综合练习来判断哪方面还有漏洞。 中考英语答题技巧: 一、听力

今年中考听力题对考生要求高了,难度也加深了,同学们要充分运用手里发的听力资料,反复听,听的过程中做做速记。捕捉的信息准确,才能答题正确。 二、单项选择 属于考查各项基础知识的传统题型,此题内容涉及语法、词汇、惯用法、句型、口语功能等方面。此题灵活,覆盖面广,但多数题目源于课本或化于课本。答题时要注意: 1.题目有语境,吃透语境,把握题干的全部信息,并从词法、语法、惯用法、词的搭配等多方面考虑。 2.对话构成题干,更生活化,更灵活,要根据实际情况来断定答案。 3.注意综合性的知识,切记"语不离句,句不离文,语法不离语境"。用排除法选出答案。 三、句子翻译

它要求考生有较精准的语言素养,考查考生对词义的理解、词汇的拼写、词性的选择和运用,以及固定搭配、句子的类型结构、句子的时态等方面的能力。 课文中出现的动词、固定搭配词组,要特别注意,因为这些内容掌握的好坏,是考生能否正确遣词造句的关键,每学到一个动词、固定搭配词组,都要联系简单句的5个基本句型考虑组成句子。 四、完型填空 1.要通读全文,掌握大意,这是非常必要的。 2.上下要连续,前后要贯通,连词的使用为各行各句之间提供了紧密的因果、转折、并列或者条件的内在逻辑关系,通过发现和识别连词,可以从宏观的角度把握文章的大意,构建全文的内在逻辑结构,领会作者的思路,完形填空通过保留一定数理的词语,使答题的人获得必要的信息和知识。 3.要仔细推敲,复校全文。 4.要有比较扎实的语言基本功底,有比较严密的逻辑思维。接近中考了,要进行强化训练,每天至少要做两至三篇的强化训练,要自

湖北学位英语群-学位英语考试答题技巧

学位英语考试答题技巧83418077湖北学位英语群71544378 主题思想题在考试中出现的频率较高,因为这类题可考查考生抓主要信息的能力,而能够抓住文章的主要信息又是阅读能力的一个极为重要的方面。 这类题在设题时常会用到title, subject, main idea , topic, theme等词。常见的提问形式有以下几种: What is the main idea of the passage? Which of the following would be the best title? What’s the best title for the passage? The main idea of the passage is that _____. This passage tells us _____. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage? What does the passage mainly discuss? 做这类题时常用略读法,把注意力放在抓主要信息上,不去过分注意细节事实,否则会造成“只见树木,不见森林”的结果。通常的办法是,快速阅读文章时注意找出各段主题句。英文文章各段主题句常放在段首,有时也放在段尾或段落中间,有时不明确写出,通读文章后把各段主题句联系起来,一般就能得出文章主题。 就整篇文章来讲,首段和尾段一般对于解这类题更为重要。我们以97年统考试卷中阅读理解部分的第一篇文章为例: How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved ,whatever he may do .It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return .In addition ,life is always presenting new things to the child——things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-know. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society. 文章后面第四个问题是: The main idea of the passage is that _____. A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard C. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life 文章的第一段讲的是人们常听说孩子们盼着长大成人,老年人则希望返老还童。人生的每个阶段总是欢乐伴着苦恼,而最幸福的人则是那些既享受人生每一阶段所带来的欢乐,又没有因虚度年华而终生后悔的人。第二段讲述了一个人儿童时代的欢乐与苦恼,第三段则告诉读者青年人的责任与义务,机遇和挑战。从以上三段文字来看,第一段中第二句即是主题句,所以我们应选D为正确答案。

中考英语考试中的时间控制和答题技巧

中考英语中的时间控制和答题技巧 一、单项选择做题要点: 先看选项,认清是什么考点,考什语法点或知识点;再读题进行斟酌。做题速度,2题/分钟。力争15分拿14分! 二、完型填空(先通读文章后填选项) 此类文章词汇一般较简单。认真琢磨第一段第一句话的大意。弄清全文何时、何地、何人、何事四大要素之后才填选项。若考语法,则应用语法知识。 切忌未通读文章前边看边填。注意上下文的关联,尤其注意文中 so、 and、 but 等连词透漏出的答案信息。 答题时间:6——8分钟。力争10分拿到8-9分。 完型题是我们容易失分的题型之一,究其原因主要有两点:一是学生普遍缺乏整体把握篇章的能力,而完型主要就是考察这种能力,因此有些选项,如果不放在原文中,没有上下文的限制,那么可能ABCD四个选项都可以填进去,但放到原文中,答案就是唯一了。二是完形填空所选用的篇目多是先叙后议的文章,即先叙述一个感人故事,末尾再发表议论,点明中心思想。因为这类文章基本都是原汁原味的英美作品,所以其中所蕴含的人生观、世界观和我们有所不同,又由于文化的差异,其感情表达方式许多学生难以理解,这就形成了所谓的“情感缺失”,题一选就错,还不明原因。所以要想做好完型,练习固然不可或缺,英美文化知识背景的学习和了解也是至关重要的。 至于做题方法,大致分三步走: 第一,先通读全文掌握其大意。这是题目所要求的,也是很必要的,除顶级高手可以一边看文章一边看选项之外,大家最好老老实实先把文章通读一遍。通读的目的就是掌握大意,而非完全理解,也就是抓住文章的感情主线。 第二,从头开始,边看文章边选答案。

英语大题解题技巧与方法

英语大题解题技巧与方法 英语是许多学生难以攻克的短板,各个答题都有其难点,当然也有相应的解题技巧和方法,以下是物美云知识店铺整理的英语大题解题技巧,希望能帮到大家。 1听力题型 听力部分的比重大概为20%。主要涉及:边听选图片或选单词、边听边看图排序或判断、听问句选答句、听答句选问句、听写类等等。 英国知名的听力教学法专家根据听力理论和记忆的心理规律设计了听的三个步骤:“听前(pre-listening)”“听时(while-listening)”和“听后(post-listening)”。 要想在听力部分拿到满意的成绩,需这么做: 1.听前争分夺秒读题干,了解题意。 图画中出现的人物、动物、动作、时间或数字等内容,孩子要极其敏感,抓住这些关键信息来提高答题准确率。 2.听时聚精会神,耳手脑并用。

适度紧张,边听边记边思考。如果遇到需要听写的单词太长,则可采用自己能辨识的缩略法进行标记。第一遍听大意,做好标注;第二遍集中精力,边听边写答案。 3.听后仔细推敲,确保正确率。 听完后检查,看看有没有拼写错误。发现错误及时纠正。注意,不要空题!很可能有些答案通过前后文意,也可以推断出来。 2单项填空 这是一道传统题型,涉及词汇、语法、句型、惯用法等方面。 答题时,也需要讲究一定的技巧: 1.认真审题干,从题干中判断考点,从词汇和语法等各个方面联系思考。 2.排除法是很好的解题帮手。自己能明确排除的做好标注,节省答题时间。 3.对话型的单选题,可把自己置身于语境之中进行思考。

4.单选题很多能从课本中找到影子,因此可联想课文内容进行比对。 5.答题完毕后,要将句子连起来读读,看看是否通顺。语感也是很重要的噢! 3完型填空 主要考查孩子的语法与词汇知识综合运用的能力。既考查词语基本搭配、近义词辨析、动词常用时态、句型结构、关联词等,又考查了理解和逻辑能力。 从例子中,我们可以看出完形填空是介乎单项填空和阅读理解之间的一种题型,一般设置10个左右的选项。解答技巧如下: 1.通读全文,了解大意。 先认真通读文章内容,了解大概意思。 错误做法: (1)遇到生僻的词汇或较难的句子,就停下来在这些细枝末节上死抠。 (2)一看到这么多空格,就着急边看边填,想早点填完。

学位英语完形填空解题技巧

成人学位英语考试解题技巧---完形填空 一、概述 完形填空(Part ⅣCloze)是在一篇题材熟悉、难度适中的短文(约200词)中留有20个空白。每个空白为一题,每题有四个选项。要求考生在全面理解内容的基础上选出一个最佳答案,使短文的结构和意思恢复完整。填空的选项包括结构词和实义词,有些选项会涉及到一些重要的语法。 二、完形填空解析 完型填空是英语考试的一个组成部分。《考试大纲》指出:“完型填空部分的目的是测试学生综合运用语言的能力”,也即理解篇章和使用词汇和语法的能力。完型填空有如下特点: 1.这项考试首先是测试考生对篇章的理解能力。虽然所给出的文章被抽去了一些词,但是整篇文章的内容仍是可以理解的。如果考生不能理解文章内容,就难以将正确的词填入文中。这也就是完型填空题与以单句形式考核词汇和语法的实体的根本区别。由此可见,考生在作题时必须时刻从上下文考虑,部应该只看到所添的词在短语或句子内是否可行。因此,在作题时最好将全文通读一下,了解了全文的意识以后在作题。 2.这项考试还测试考生使用词汇和语法结构的能力。文章中留出的每一个空格要求填入一个词。考试大纲规定:“填空的词项包括结构词和实义词”。结构词(也称虚词,有代词、冠词、介词、连词、关系词等)主要是表示语法结构关系的,在选用结构词时便需要考虑在语法上是否恰当。对实义词(名词、形容词、数词、动词和副词)的选择既要看其意思用在句中是否得当,也要看它与其他词的搭配关系是否合适。 3.首句一般没有空格,对于首句应该给与足够的重视,因为往往它就是中心句或是引导句,它的时态往往决定了全文的时态,所以多花一点时间看首句是值得的。 4.然后以句子为单位一句一句地读,一句一句地填空,主要考虑语法、句意、逻辑和上下文联系。暂时填不出来的就空在那里。 5.最后通读一遍,完成没有填的空,再看看填的顺不顺,不顺的地方大胆修改。 三、答题技巧 1.拿到题目,首先从语法角度考虑,因为语法考察要占70%以上(其中有与词汇考察相交部分),每一题必然是考某一个语法点,如果你在选择答案时已经知道考的是哪一个语法点,那么90%的可能这道题里做对了;如果你云里雾里,那只有祈祷了。 2.从语法着手不行之后,在从句意着手,透彻理解句子的意思。 3.总是第一反应,因为第一反应往往来自于语感。 4.容易的熟悉的题要一跳而过,难题也不要多花时间,先猜一个答案,(以免后来时间紧,忘记),再在题目前做一个记号,等到检查时,再考虑。也许在做其它题目时,你会得到某种启示。 5.掌握语法结构和规则,记住短语搭配,用熟悉的短语去推断正确的答案。 2012年学位英语-- 完形填空模拟真题 例一: Most people have no idea of the hard work and worry that gosintosthe collecting o f those fascinating birds and animals that they pay to see in the zoo.One of the ques tions that is always asked of me is __1__ I became an animal collector in the first _ _2__ .The answer is that I have always been interested in animals and zoos.According to my parents, the first word I was able to say with any __3__ was not the convention al“mamma”or“daddy”, __4__ the word“zoo”, which I would __5__ over and over agai n with a shrill __6__ until someone, insgroupsto __7__ me up, would take me to the zo o.When I __8__ a little older, we lived in Greece and I had a great __9__ of pets, ra nging from owls to seahorses, and I spent all my spare time __10__ the countryside in search of fresh specimens to __11__ to my collection of pets.__12__ on I went for a year to the City Zoo, as a student __13__ , to get experience of the large animals, s
