托福阅读关键词定位法,首先要学会找题目中的关键词,然后利用题目中的关键词去定位文章的相关信息。那么具体应该如何操作呢?下面,牛学君来给大家详细解读一下。

一.托福阅读关键词定位

托福考试每篇文章的字数都是在700字左右,可以说是密密麻麻的一片,英语字母,看得牛学君是头都大了,为了让大伙更上一层楼,牛学君只能忍着,只能一点一点给大家解释了。考生们在考试的时候,可以分段来看整篇文章,而且,很多考生看文章看懂了,但是题目就是错了,这也很正常的,在阅读的时候,一定要抓住关键词,抓不住关键词,那就很难在做题的时候做对,或者花更少的时间。想要抓好关键词,得要做到:1)看逻辑信号词;2)读句子的时候一定要牢记看主干。

二.托福阅读关键词定位实例讲解

下面,牛学君就来举例说明了,举的例子就是托福TPO25中的文章The Decline of Venetian Shipping:

TPO25-2 The Decline of Venetian Shipping:

Paragraph 2 This decline can be seen clearly in the changes that affected Venetian shipping and trade. First, Venic’s intermediary functions in the Adriatic Sea, where it had dominated the business of shipping for other parties, were lost to direct trading. In the fifteenth century there was little problem recruiting sailors to row the galleys (large ships propelled by oars): guilds (business associations) were required to provide rowers, and through a draft system free citizens served compulsorily when called for. In the early sixteenth century the shortage of rowers was not serious because the demand for galleys was limited by a move to round ships (round-hulled ships with more cargo space), with required fewer rowers. But the shortage of crews proved to be a greater and greater problem, despite continuous appeal to Venic’s tradition of maritime greatness. Even though sailors’ wages doubled among the northern Italian cities from 1550 to 1590, this did not elicit an increased supply.

在快速阅读这个段落的时候我们要找的关键词是:逻辑信号词—如段落中所标示的first, but, this… 我们不难发现这些信号词所在的句子基本都是解题的信息点。那么在做题定位时不妨多加留意。当然,抓住这些关键词并不难,难在理解。接下来我们就来看看理解这些句子时的关键词。每段话的首句是必定要读的。这是包含了一个定语从句的复杂句。先看到核心词changes,再看到Venetian shipping and trade。这篇文章接下来具体要写的内容就展露无遗,也就是威尼斯船业和贸易的变迁。

First,这当然是开始写shipping的标志了。我们一直强调句子要读主干,那么简单地看这个句子就是Venice’s functions were lost, 核心词很显然是lost,也对应了整篇文章的主题 decline. 接下来两句写到了15和16世纪遇到的船员难招的问题。冒号的出现,阅读冒号之前的内容there was little problem;到下一句,这句中要看到的核心是not serious;再往后看到But….to be a greater and greater problem. 到这里意思应该已经一目了然了,就是讲威尼斯船业在招聘船员方面所遭遇的变迁:little problem—not serious —greater problem。刚才我们讲了文章阅读部分要抓关键词,其实我们在阅读题目和选项时也是需要寻找关键词的。有些题目的选项是比较长的,四个选项看上去也差不多一段话了,所以一定要抓住关键词判断才行,如否定词、比较词和并列词。这些是快速浏览选项的第一步。再次也要看到题干和每个选项中能让我们快速定位到原文的关键词。

关键词很关键!托福阅读中找对关键词才能快速找到对应内容,快速做对题目。上文是牛学君为大家整理的关于托福阅读关键词的方法及实例讲解,大家在学习的同时也要多做练习去实践。
