    題干:Although English was then overtaken by German, it developed again in the 19th century as a direct result of the industrial revolution.
    原文:In the following century much of this momentum was lost as German established itself as the leading European language of science. … However, in the 19th century scientific English again enjoyed substantial lexical growth as the industrial revolution created the need for new technical vocabulary.
    題干中出現(xiàn)的兩種邏輯關(guān)系均在原文中對(duì)應(yīng)出現(xiàn)。一是表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的although, 對(duì)應(yīng)于原文中的however;二是表示因果關(guān)系的as a direct result of 對(duì)應(yīng)于原文中表因果的邏輯關(guān)系詞as。很顯然,這對(duì)于題干信息的定位意義重大。

    題干:To deal with this, Stanley suggests the use of artificial floods in the short term, and increasing the amount of water available through desalination in the longer term.
    原文:In the immediate future, Stanley believes that one solution would be to make artificial floods to flush out the delta waterways, in the same way that natural floods did before the construction of the dams. He says, however, that in the long term an alternative process such as desalination may have to be used to increase the amount of water available.
    題干中出現(xiàn)了表示遞進(jìn)的邏輯關(guān)系詞in the short term … in the longer term …??焖俨樽x原文,可定位于文中相同的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)in the immediate future … in the long term …。
    另外,對(duì)雅思真題文章進(jìn)行精讀訓(xùn)練的同學(xué)會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn),除了以上兩大功能之外,邏輯關(guān)系詞在原文中的位置還常常是命題考點(diǎn)最集中的地方。因此學(xué)習(xí)和掌握邏輯關(guān)系詞在閱讀中的功能和作用,將對(duì)提高答題的速度起關(guān)鍵性的作用。同時(shí),能夠熟練運(yùn)用邏輯關(guān)系詞對(duì)于寫出條理清楚,層次分明的雅思作文也大有幫助。
