TOEFL阅读:拿分小技巧

从某种意义上来讲,词汇量的大小是托福阅读理解高分的基础和关键。如果词汇量没有达到基本要求(五千以上),即使你有“葵花宝典”在手,也只能命丧托福考试的“毒招”之下。所以,以牺牲词汇量为代价的技巧练习简直是一种无用功。

托福阅读技巧而言,托福阅读量非常大,一般的中国考生根本无法把文章全部读完,所谓的“扫读法”、“跳读法”和“略读法”也只能适用于少数类型的文章,根本不能解决本质问题。那么,文章到底应该怎么读法呢?一句话,主动地阅读文章的关键部位。

所谓主动阅读文章是指不能像一般的阅读那样完全被动地接受信息,而应该不断的进行思考和预测;所谓关键部位,主要是每一段的开头和结尾部分。由于TOEFL的阅读理解文章全部选自于正式出版物(publication),文章的逻辑(logic)结构非常完整(complete)和严谨(rigorous),而且出现的逻辑模式也是屈指可数。若大家经过系统的训练,考生的预测可以做到非常准确的程度(accuratedegree)。这样,通过阅读文章的几处关键部位,就能很快地把握整个文章的结构和内在的逻辑关系,也就解决了问题的四分三左右了。

解题训练法的应用。排除法(exclusivemethod)恐怕是一直以来大多数学生在解阅读理题目时使用最多的方法。事实上(infact),这种方法具有致命的缺点(fataldisadvantage):干扰大、费时间。更有效和迅速的办法是读完题干之后,就在脑子反映出一个模糊的(vague)或者是不完整的答案,然后直接在选项中寻找接近的答案进行判断(tojudge)。这种能力必须在平时的训练和讲解中逐渐(gradually)养成和加强,而不是什么技巧之类的东西可以替代。平时还还是要多加练习。
