如何解決新TOEFL閱讀中的修飾目的題2

字號:

三、邏輯關系詞的題
    在段落中將某個邏輯關系詞劃線問why does the author mention “邏輯關系詞”?
    這種題目的解法關注邏輯關系詞所表述的含義如:
    轉(zhuǎn)折連詞:however but although instead rather than 等詞的出現(xiàn)就是表明前后相反含義
    因果連詞:because result in result from等詞的出現(xiàn)就是表明前后因果關系
    遞進連詞:furthermore too also 等
    舉個中文例子:麗麗老師很靚,但事實上,她長得很抽象。Why does the author mention但事實上?是因為前后邏輯關系相反。
    例1:
    The level of violence in territorial aggression varies widely from species to species, though few species fight other members of the species to death and instead rely on non-lethal contests for control of territory that involves noise-making maneuvers such as roaring.(在領土爭奪過程中的暴力水平是物種之間是有區(qū)別的,盡管很少有物種把對方打死而是代替的是依賴于非致命性的方式來控制領地包括發(fā)出噪音如吼叫)
    Why does the author use the word instead in paragraph 2 to show that information that follows
    A contradicts what precedes it
    B expands upon what precedes it
    C provides an example of what precedes it
    D explains an effect of what precedes it
    Instead顯然是一個邏輯關系詞表明前后相反含義所以正確答案應該是A
    例2
    Unfortunately, Hubble telescope was initially delayed in relaying its first pictures back from space due to a simple mathematical miscalculation.
    Why does the author begin paragraph 2 with Unfortunately?
    A.it indicates that NASA has been unhappy with all of Hubble’s photograph.
    B.It shows that NASA’s plan to use stars to orient the Hubble telescope was misguided
    C.It emphasizes the need to have telescopes on Earth.
    D.It indicates that high expectation were not initially met.
    Unfortunately,表明了作者對Hubble 望遠鏡的態(tài)度。所在正確答案是D。
