Experienced friends can quickly find the answer to English reading. Let me introduce you to the skills of finding answers quickly in English reading!
Main idea
In English reading, we should be clear about levels. Personally, it is very useful to make clear the main idea of the article, the center of the paragraph and the sub-center inside the paragraph, which are the main topics and some details of some articles. The general theme of an article has a fixed position: the end of the first paragraph, the beginning of the second paragraph and the last paragraph. Of course, there are also unconventional situations that need to be discovered by our own ability. You need to train slowly to find the theme. Conventional and unconventional articles can pass real questions and be analyzed by experts at the back, and their ability can be improved quickly.
Conventional article writing logic
In this article, we have always emphasized the importance of article logic. So, what is the general logic? Through general induction and summary, four logical frameworks can be roughly drawn. These frameworks are especially helpful to understand the overall content of the article. The reading process can skip the logical main line according to the frame, and it will have a good effect on the basis of grasping the main points, paragraph center and sub-center of the paragraph. Perhaps, at the beginning of graduate school, many students who have a solid foundation on weekdays will be wiped out. This situation is not necessarily due to the great lack of English vocabulary knowledge, but may be a kind of logical confusion. The framework is briefly introduced as follows:
Framework 1: ask questions-analyze questions-solve problems.
Frame 2: Narrative Phenomenon-Analysis Phenomenon-Conclusion
Frame 3: Put forward an idea-support or refute-and reiterate it.
Frame 4: Comparison of two things-item by item-overall comparison
In reading, we should consciously classify and analyze the articles and clarify the logic. What is listed above is the trunk, and further analysis is needed to the branches and leaves in order to achieve a clear hierarchy. At the paragraph level, the center of the article is also easy to distinguish. Most of the center of the article is at the beginning and end, and a few will appear in the paragraph. So when reading the article, after positioning, try to expand the scope of key reading through a few sentences and observe the position of sentences in the paragraph and in the full text. Generally speaking, the nearest paragraph center and paragraph sub-center are often the correct answers. Of course, it is more reliable to analyze carefully when filling in the answer at last.
The key position of the implied answer
The so-called article focus is what we have to pay special attention to when reading the article, and it is also the visual focus when we browse the article. In postgraduate reading, topic points are generally important places in the article, with common centers and sub-centers of paragraphs; For non-center, graduate articles are generally not inspected. This is determined by the selectivity of postgraduate entrance examination and the practicality of reading scientific papers. The above logic can basically grasp all macro problems, but for micro problems, we must solve them through the tips of key positions. The following is to understand and grasp the details of the article through the analysis and introduction of some key positions:
1, the center and paragraph center and sub-center of all articles.
2. Turning point and cause and effect. In reading, it is best to mark the words with turning point and cause and effect, because turning point and cause and effect both express the author's views and attitudes, which are more emphasized than ordinary sentences. Because, for, but, anyway.
3. Sentences and words expressing opinions may appear in many places. Of course, not all the sentences and words are important, but they are all worth reading. It is exciting to be sensitive to these words in reading articles, so we should accumulate such words: agree, admit, assert, see, insist, discover, think, believe, show, point out, content, cheer, say and so on.
4. Special punctuation marks, some of which indicate specific explanations, table explanations and antonyms. , there are strong and weak points. The main special punctuation marks are:-,(), ""and so on.
5. Modal verbs. Both "should" and "must" can express the author's emotional factors and reflect the author's views on something from the side, so reading should be the main thing.
6. Special sentence patterns. For example, adverbs in the form of comma in advance, such as Variety and ..., are of great significance ... Adverbs play a great role in sentences and can reflect attitudes and degrees. This special sentence pattern is more focused and worth reading and analyzing.
7. Quote comparative, superlative, such/such, etc.
There are many key features listed above, which are no different from some relatively prominent words. When reading an article, you can basically make most of the reading questions by relying on these key points. When reading, draw the key points quickly and read only the sentences with key features, so as to "lose weight" the article and improve reading efficiency.
Option feature
1, characteristics of correct answer
(1) is synonymous with the original sentence.
(2) Grammatical changes relative to the original text, such as from passive to active in the original text.
(3) Positive and negative, that is, the negative form of the original sentence, and the answer becomes a positive narrative; The original text is positive form, from positive narrative, the answer becomes negative form, from negative narrative.
(4) From the point of view of (4)AB, the original text tells one thing from the point of view of A, while the answer tells the same thing from the point of view of B, and the essence remains unchanged.
(5) concrete abstraction, that is, the specific situation of the original text, the answer becomes abstract generalization, and vice versa.
2, the characteristics of interference options
(1) Copy the original text with different words.
(2) Half of the information is consistent with the original text, and half of the information is inconsistent.
(3) Put some information of the original text on the table.
④ Contrary to the original statement.
(5) There is no new information in the original.
(6) contains absolute words, such as only, always, never, all, everything, everything, everywhere, etc.
(7) Logical error, causal inversion, etc.
Finally, I would like to remind my friends that to do a good job in English reading for postgraduate entrance examination, we must decompose and think about the article from different angles on the basis of solid English vocabulary and grammar. Do the questions at ordinary times and record your own right and wrong on the answers. It is best not to mark the answer on the question. When you practice in the future, you can feel your progress and see your shortcomings by comparing with the past.
