第二類:頻度限定

例4 劍2 Test 4 Q 35

The most common type of road rage incident involved

A damage to property

B personal violence

C verbal abuse

思路透析:此題題干中出現(xiàn)了most common 這種表示頻率的詞,那么勢必出現(xiàn)road rage的種種表現(xiàn)作為干擾項,而我們要等的是最為普遍的一種形式的同意轉換。

實際做題:

原文:Well, as you can see, 93% of respondents had had some kind of problem. A surprisingly large percentage-24% had had their car damaged in some way, but the main type of incident was being shouted at-79% had experienced that. 15% had experienced violence on their own persons... they’d actually been hit by someone.

解題:正如我們所料,出現(xiàn)了violence和damage等road rage的表現(xiàn)形式作為干擾項,而我們所需要的是把most common 和main type 做同意轉換,進而得到答案C。

例5 劍2 Test 3 Q 8

The respondents feels that adverts should occur every

A 10 minutes

B 15 minutes

C 20 minutes

思路透析:通過這個題的出題形式,能夠看出是純粹考查頻率的一道題。

實際做題:聽到how often 這個問題時確定做題位置。

原文:Well out of that list I’d say every quarter of an hour. I don’t think we can complain about that, as long as they don’t last for ten minutes each time!

解題:此題用每次廣告所持續(xù)的時間10分鐘為干擾項,加以排除。把15分鐘和quarter進行同意轉換后得到答案B。

總結:在此提醒考生們,當題目中出現(xiàn)表示頻率的詞時要加以注意,這樣的詞通常包括:frequency, frequent, frequently, common, commonly, usual, usually, average, averagely, every ...minutes 等。

第三類:名詞限定

例 6 劍6 Q 33

Asiatic lions disappeared from Europe

A 2500 years ago

B 2000 years ago

C 1900 years ago

思路透析:此題題干中出現(xiàn)了Europe 這一名詞加以限定,所以解題時要注意哪個時間緊跟著歐洲那么哪個選項就很有可能是正確答案。

實際做題:

原文:However, Europe saw its last Asiatic lion roaming free two thousand years ago. Over the next nineteen hundred years the numbers of Asiatic lions in other areas declined steadily, but it was only in the nineteenth century that they disappeared from everywhere in India.

解題: 1900年這個選項是跟著印度的,故排除。2000年是跟著歐洲出現(xiàn)的,故答案為B。

總結:有時候一些具有實際意義的名詞對這個題目的范圍進行了限定,那么其實題目就出現(xiàn)了簡化的機會,重點關注哪個選項是出現(xiàn)在這個名詞周圍的就可以輕松得到答案了。

綜上所述,雅思選擇題很容易對題干進行時間,頻率,以及名詞的限定。提前發(fā)現(xiàn)這些限定能夠幫助我們確認解題方向,進而進行有的放矢式的解題,能大大提高解題的正確率。
