    下面出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)托福閱讀欄目小編要為大家分享的是句子簡(jiǎn)化題的答題技巧,詳細(xì)內(nèi)容如下,大家可以參考一下。
    在托福閱讀的十大題型中,句子簡(jiǎn)化題也是其中尤為突顯其特色的一種題目類(lèi)型。句子簡(jiǎn)化題在新托福閱讀考試中通常一篇文章只有一題,雖然量不多,但是如果考生的語(yǔ)法很棒,這種題可謂是“送分題”。因?yàn)檫@種題型的主要考查目的是:考查考生們理解文章中某一特定復(fù)雜句子所傳達(dá)的基本內(nèi)容,并不受細(xì)枝末節(jié)的干擾,用簡(jiǎn)化的句子表達(dá)原句基本內(nèi)容的能力。因此,考生們的語(yǔ)法水平在解題過(guò)程中就顯得尤為重要。
    以O(shè)G Practice Set 4 (Aggression)中的第8題為例:
    The Cognitive Approach. Cognitive psychologists assert that our behavior is influenced by our values, by the ways in which we interpret our situations, and by choice. For example, people who believe that aggression is necessary and justified – as during wartime – are likely to act aggressively, whereas people who believe that a particular war or act of aggression is unjust, or who think that aggression is never justified, are less likely to behave aggressively.
    8. Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence­ Incorrect answer choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.
    People who believe that they are fighting a just war act aggressively while those who believe that they are fighting an unjust war do not.
    People who believe that aggression is necessary and justified are more likely to act aggressively than those who believe differently.
    People who normally do not believe that aggression is necessary and justified may act aggressively during wartime.
    People who believe that aggression is necessary and justified do not necessarily act aggressively during wartime.
    分析:題目中陰影句子的主句為“people who believe that aggression is necessary and justified – as during wartime – are likely to act aggressively”,其中“who believe that aggression is necessary and justified”為people的定語(yǔ)從句,因此該主句部分翻譯為“相信攻擊或者侵略是必要和公正(就如在戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)時(shí)期)的人可能會(huì)有攻擊性或者侵略性行為”;而“whereas people who believe that a particular war or act of aggression is unjust, or who think that aggression is never justified, are less likely to behave aggressively”是whereas引導(dǎo)的表示對(duì)比、對(duì)立或者直接相反的狀語(yǔ)從句,其中“who believe that a particular war or act of aggression is unjust, or who think that aggression is never justified,”是該從句中限定“people”的定語(yǔ)從句,因此該狀語(yǔ)從句意為“然而那些認(rèn)為某場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)或侵略行為是不公正的,或者相信侵略是不合理的人,有攻擊性或者侵略性行為的可能性更小一些”。陰影部分的句子主要是把持有不同看法的人的行為的可能性做了對(duì)比,因此答案選第二個(gè)更合理。
    其他題型的考查重點(diǎn)雖然不是語(yǔ)法,但是語(yǔ)法也會(huì)嚴(yán)重影響題目的理解和答題。建議考生們把新托福閱讀中常涉及的語(yǔ)法知識(shí)掌握好,比如定語(yǔ)從句、狀語(yǔ)從句、賓語(yǔ)從句、主語(yǔ)從句、表語(yǔ)從句、同位語(yǔ)從句、分詞、動(dòng)名詞、不定式、倒裝、強(qiáng)調(diào)句式等。
