第六講 怎樣做完成句子
    一、題型介紹
    在全國職稱英語等級(jí)考試中,完成句子是一種比較新穎的題型。這種題型通常是先給出一篇300詞左右的短文,短文后給出五個(gè)不完整的句子,一般是缺少一個(gè)詞,要求考生在理解短文的基礎(chǔ)之上,完成這五個(gè)句子,即把丟掉的詞根據(jù)原文的內(nèi)容給填出來。盡管每個(gè)句子都缺少一個(gè)詞,但如果要填的詞比較難,題目設(shè)計(jì)者提供了所要填的詞的第一個(gè)字母或前兩三個(gè)字母,這樣難的題目就變得相對(duì)容易些了。
    由于完成句子這種題型比較新穎,在目前我國其它類型的大規(guī)??荚囍猩心┦褂眠^,許多應(yīng)試者對(duì)該題望而生畏,有的甚至干脆放棄了這一部分。實(shí)際上大可不必如此,因?yàn)橥瓿删渥釉诒举|(zhì)上只不過是我們常見的閱讀理解題型的一種變體,或叫簡答題,考生根據(jù)自己對(duì)于文章的內(nèi)容的理解從四個(gè)先項(xiàng)中先出一個(gè)正確的答案。而完成句子這種題型通常是先給出一篇短文,短文后給出五個(gè)不完整的句子,每個(gè)句子一般缺少一個(gè)詞,要求考生在理解短文的基礎(chǔ)之上,完成這五個(gè)句子,這些句子多半已改變了敘述的角度或者采用另一種廉潔,但是句子的內(nèi)容往往是文章中某些內(nèi)容的稞。因此,這種題型不過是把覺的閱讀理解題型的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)去掉,只保留其題干部分,要求考生把不完整的題干(句子)補(bǔ)全。
    二、測(cè)試點(diǎn)
    完成句子主要是用來測(cè)試應(yīng)試者的閱讀理解能力和對(duì)英語詞匯的使用能力,它的測(cè)試點(diǎn)與一般的閱讀理解題型的測(cè)試點(diǎn)基本上一致。下面我們以全國職稱英語等級(jí)考試?yán)砉ゎ悩宇}中的完成句子為例說明命題者是怎樣測(cè)量考生這種閱讀能力,并指出如何解答這類問題。
    Computers Can Read
    Computers can solve difficult problems and control the machines which are not simple. Many people use small computers called calculators to add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers quickly. Scientists use large computers to solve many problems at the same time. You can play games with computers, and some computers can help you learn languages. The Reading Machine is a special kind of computer. It can read books for blind people.
    This machine consists fo three sections: a scanner (掃描儀), a computer, and a vioce synthesizer (合成器). These three parts are like your eyes, your brain, and your voice. The scanner is the "eye"of the machine. It scans, or looks at the words on the page of a book and changes them into signals. These signals then go to the computer, the "brain" of the machine. The computer analyzes (分析)the signals and r***gnizes the words and then sends information about the words to the vioce synthesizer. The voice synthesizer makes the sounds of the words.
    To use the machine, a blind person simply opens the book and puts it face down on the scanner. The machine reads the words on the page. When one page is finished, the blind person turns the page and puts the bllk on the scanne
