雅思閱讀高分技巧:
雅思閱讀高分技巧1.identify the writer’s overall purpose, target audience, sources etc. 辨識作者的寫作目的,目標(biāo)讀者,和文章來源
這種閱讀技能需要學(xué)生從文章的結(jié)構(gòu),內(nèi)容,用詞通篇考慮。往往對應(yīng)的是文章最后的一道選擇題。一般說來,雅思閱讀文章的寫作目的一般是介紹某個社會現(xiàn)象,目標(biāo)讀者一般都是普通的具有一定認(rèn)知能力的非專業(yè)性讀者,文章都來自一些偏學(xué)術(shù)化的雜志和書籍。但具體的寫作目的目標(biāo)讀者和文章來源要具體分析了。那么同學(xué)們平時讀一些文章的時候就下意識地問問自己作者為什么寫這篇文章,作者希望什么樣的人來讀這樣的文章等等這樣的問題,其實問這些問題既是讀懂一篇文章的手段也是目的。如果讀完了一篇文章還不能回答這樣的問題證明可能有些地方確實沒讀懂。
雅思閱讀高分技巧2.identify and follow key arguments in a text 識別并讀懂文章中的主要論述觀點
這種閱讀技能是指從整體去把握一篇文章的結(jié)構(gòu),并對相應(yīng)的重要的文章觀點進(jìn)行提煉理解的能力。雅思的閱讀文章比較學(xué)術(shù)性,所以相對與其他的文體而言結(jié)構(gòu)其實是比較容易把握的。但還是需要經(jīng)過真題文章的仔細(xì)分析體會去學(xué)習(xí)英文議論說明性文字的結(jié)構(gòu)特點,尤其注意體會區(qū)別出作者自己的觀點和別人的觀點,以及先負(fù)后正的寫法。
雅思閱讀高分技巧3.identify opinions and attitudes as opposed to facts 區(qū)分事實與觀點態(tài)度
能夠區(qū)分文章中的內(nèi)容是觀點態(tài)度或者是事實是一個閱讀者應(yīng)該具備的基本技能。如果閱讀的時候不分青紅皂白都認(rèn)為是事實,我們就缺失了對文章信息的判斷能力,閱讀將可能是極其混亂的。人們不只在閱讀外語文章的時候會犯這種錯誤。那么在文章中如果出現(xiàn)一些類似表示觀點態(tài)度的詞(比如 maintain, argue)要注意,這些詞后面出現(xiàn)的應(yīng)該就是觀點和態(tài)度。觀點和態(tài)度是主觀的,不能被證明的。但如果是這樣的表達(dá):evidence show, experiment suggest后面跟的就應(yīng)該是事實,可以被證明的。
雅思閱讀高分技巧4.locate specific information 定位細(xì)節(jié)信息
雅思閱讀有一種比較難的題型which paragraph contains the following information考察的就是定位細(xì)節(jié)信息的能力。這種能力是考察學(xué)生能不能在海量的信息里找到你最想找的信息然后進(jìn)行閱讀的能力。這反應(yīng)了國外大學(xué)閱讀量巨大的要求。學(xué)生不可能每個字都讀,得具備這種找到最有價值的一點然后再進(jìn)行相關(guān)閱讀的能力。平時訓(xùn)練這種scanning的閱讀技能。當(dāng)然如果對全文結(jié)構(gòu)不做一個skimming也就是大致了解文章結(jié)構(gòu)而大致知道在哪幾段中尋找,這種任務(wù)基本上是不可能完成的。這也反應(yīng)了讀書的一個基本步驟,拿到一本書我們應(yīng)該先看目錄,知道書的大致結(jié)構(gòu)再由此在最相關(guān)的段落中尋找閱讀興趣點。因此這種題型需要skimming+scanning兩種閱讀技能的結(jié)合才能準(zhǔn)確快速地解題。
雅思閱讀高分技巧5.read for detailed information 細(xì)致閱讀
雅思閱讀高分技巧6.extract relevant information 摘取相關(guān)信息
當(dāng)定位到最相關(guān)的句子之后,雅思閱讀考試是希望學(xué)生能細(xì)致閱讀并摘取出相關(guān)的信息答案的。而不是象那種什么不閱讀閱讀法說的那樣不需要讀原文就能解出答案。那么平時大家也應(yīng)該進(jìn)行相應(yīng)的精讀訓(xùn)練,把一些平時難以讀懂的句子仔細(xì)通過各種方法真正讀懂其意思。當(dāng)然閱讀的時候應(yīng)該帶著問題去有針對性的閱讀,搜尋我們想通過閱讀得出的最相關(guān)的信息。這些閱讀技能對應(yīng)的是雅思絕大部分的細(xì)節(jié)題:包括填空題,表格題,句子完成題。
雅思閱讀高分技巧7.distinguish the main idea from supporting detail 區(qū)分主旨和細(xì)節(jié)

希望以上的答復(fù)能對您的留學(xué)申請有所幫助。如果您有任何更詳細(xì)的問題或需要進(jìn)一步的協(xié)助,我強烈推薦您訪問我們的留學(xué)官方網(wǎng)站 ,在那里您可以找到更多專業(yè)的留學(xué)考試規(guī)劃和留學(xué)資料以及*的咨詢服務(wù)。祝您留學(xué)申請順利!

雅思閱讀動植物類真題:The Pearl

The Pearl

A

Throughout history, pearls have held a unique presence within the wealthy

and powerful. For instance, the pearl was the favored gem of the wealthy

during the Roman Empire. This gift from the sea had been brought back from

the orient by the Roman conquests. Roman women wore pearls to bed so

they could be reminded of their wealth immediately upon waking up. Before

jewelers learned to cut gems, the pearl was of greater value than the diamond.

In the Orient and Persia Empire, pearls were ground into powders to cure

anything from heart disease to epilepsy, with possible aphrodisiac uses as well.

Pearls were once considered an exclusive privilege for royalty. A law in 1612

drawn up by the Duke of Saxony prohibited the wearing of pearls by nobility,

professors, doctors or their wives in an effort to further distinguish royal

appearance. American Indians also used freshwater pearls from the Mississippi

River as decorations and jewelry.

B

There are essentially three types of pearls: natural, cultured and imitation. A

natural pearl (often called an Oriental pearl) forms when an irritant, such as

a piece of sand, works its way into a particular species of oyster, mussel, or

clam. As a defense mechani*, the mollusk secretes a fluid to coat the irritant.

Layer upon layer of this coating is deposited on the irritant until a lustrous

pearl is formed.

C

The only difference natural pearls and cultured pearls is that the irritant is

a surgically implanted bead or piece of shell called Mother of Pearl. Often,

these shells are ground oyster shells that are worth

significant amounts of money in their own right as

irritant-catalysts for quality pearls. The resulting

core is, much larger than in a natural pearl. Yet,

as long as there are enough layers of nacre (the

secreted fluid covering the irritant) to result in a

beautiful, gem-quality pearl, the size of the nucleus

is of no consequence to beauty or durability.

D

Pearls can come from either salt or freshwater sources. Typically, saltwater

pearls tend to be higher quality, although there are several types of freshwater

pearls that are considered high in quality as well. Freshwater pearls tend to

be very irregular in shape, with a puffed rice appearance the most prevalent.

Nevertheless, it is each individual pearls merits that determines value more

than the source of the pearl. Saltwater pearl oysters are usually cultivated in

protected lagoons or volcanic atolls. However, most freshwater cultured pearls

sold today come from China. Cultured pearls are the response of the shell to a

tissue implant. A tiny piece of mantle tissue from a donor shell is transplanted

into a recipient shell. This graft will form a pearl sac and the tissue will

precipitate calcium carbonate into this pocket. There are a number of options

for producing cultured pearls: use freshwater or seawater shells, transplant

the graft into the mantle or into the gonad, add a spherical bead or do it nonbeaded.

The majority of saltwater cultured pearls are grown with beads.

E

Regardless of the method used to acquire a pearl, the process usually takes

several years. Mussels must reach a mature age, which can take up t0 3 years,

and then be implanted or naturally receive an irritant. Once the irritant is

in place, it can take up to another 3 years for the pearl to reach its full size.

Often, the irritant may be rejected, the pearl will be terrifically misshapen, or

the oyster may simply die from disease or

countless other complications. By the end

of a 5 t0 10 year cycle, only 50% of the

oysters will have survived. And of the pearls

produced, only approximately 5% are of

substantial quality for top jewelry makers.

From the outset, a pearl fanner can figure

on spending over $100 for every oyster

that is farmed, of which many will produce

nothing or die.

F

Imitation pearls are a different story

altogether. In most cases, a glass bead is

dipped into a solution made from fish

scales. This coating is thin and may

eventually wear off. One can usually

tell an imitation by biting on it. Fake

pearls glide across your teeth, while the

layers of nacre on real pearls feel gritty.

The Island of Mallorca (in Spain) is known for its imitation pearl industry.

Quality natural pearls are very rare jewels. The actual value of a natural pearl

is determined in the same way as it would be for other “precious” gems.

The valuation factors include size, shape, color, quality of surface, orient

and luster. In general, cultured pearls are less valuable than natural pearls,

whereas imitation pearls almost have no value. One way that jewelers can

determine whether a pearl is cultured or natural is to have a gem lab perform

an x-ray of the pearl. If the x-ray reveals a nucleus, the pearl is likely a beadnucleated

saltwater pearl. If no nucleus is present, but irregular and *all dark

inner spots indicating a cavity are visible, combined with concentric rings of

organic substance, the pearl is likely a cultured freshwater. Cultured freshwater

pearls can often be confused for natural pearls which present as homogeneous

pictures which continuously darken toward the surface of the pearl. Natural

pearls will often show larger cavities where organic matter has dried out and

decomposed. Although imitation pearls look the part, they do not have the

same weight or *oothness as real pearls, and their luster will also dim greatly.

Among cultured pearls, Akoya pearls from Japan are some of the most lustrous.

A good quality necklace of 40 Akoya pearls measuring 7mm in diameter sells

for about $1,500, while a super- high quality strand sells for about $4,500. Size

on the other hand, has to do with the age of the oyster that created the pearl (the

more mature oysters produce larger pearls) and the location in which the pearl

was cultured. The South Sea waters of Australia tend to produce the larger

pearls; probably because the water along the coast line is supplied with rich

nutrients from the ocean floor. Also, the type of mussel common to the area

seems to possess a predilection for producing comparatively large pearls.

G

Historically, the world’s best pearls came from the Persian Gulf, especially

around what is now Bahrain. The pearls of the Persian Gulf were natural

created and collected by breath-hold divers. The secret to the special luster of

Gulf pearls probably derived from the unique mixture of sweet and salt water

around the island. Unfortunately, the natural pearl industry of the Persian Gulf

ended abruptly in the early 1930’s with the discovery of large deposits of

oil. Those who once dove for pearls sought prosperity in the economic boom

ushered in by the oil industry. The water pollution resulting from spilled oil

and indiscriminate over-fishing of oysters essentially ruined the once pristine

pearl producing waters of the Gulf. Today, pearl diving is practiced only as

a hobby. Still, Bahrain remains one of the foremost trading centers for high

quality pearls. In fact, cultured pearls are banned from the Bahrain pearl

market, in an effort to preserve the location’s heritage. Nowadays, the largest

stock of natural pearls probably resides in India. Ironically, much of India’s

stock of natural pearls came originally from Bahrain. Unlike Bahrain, which

has essentially lost its pearl resource, traditional pearl fishing is still practiced

on a *all scale in India.

14 NOT GIVEN

雅思閱讀技巧之詞匯+ 總結(jié)

雅思閱讀技巧錦囊一:英語詞庫

所謂英語詞庫是英語對英語的詞庫而非是英語對漢語的詞庫。每個烤鴨都清楚雅思是國際性考試而非中國性質(zhì)考試,單詞背其中文意思在考試過程中是無效的,題目和 文章 都沒有中文的出現(xiàn)。雅思閱讀就是在全文中的找答案,可是你所用定位的詞很多時候不會老老實實的坐在原文里等著你,這就需要你具備英語 同義詞 的能力。

比如劍橋6的67頁的list of headings 的 key point 2 的首句中managers should ensure that all employees have specific goals and receive comments on how well they are doing in those goals. 與之相對應(yīng)的答案是establish targets and give feedback 同意詞組為:have specific goals等于establish targets,receive comments on how well they are doing in those goals等于give feedback。

雅思閱讀技巧錦囊二:ability to paraphrase

Paraphrase意思是用英文的 句子 或者段落來解釋其英文的句子或者段落。對于外語系的孩子來講這種能力的考試是家常便飯,也就造就了他們的理解能力比非外語系的同學(xué)們好很多。這種能力在雅思閱讀考試中也是司空見慣的。

例如:劍橋6的43頁的判斷題10. Cities with high level of bicycles usage can be efficient even when public transport is only averagely good. 很多孩子看見only習(xí)慣性判為NO。因為太絕對了。實則不然,答案為YES。對應(yīng)于原文中two most ‘bicycle friend’ cities considered—Amsterdam and Copenhagen—were very efficient, even though their public transport systems were ‘ reasonable but special.

切記:高分的取得不只是靠技巧,閱讀能力的提升非常的重要

雅思閱讀必備高分三技能

技能一:擁有扎實的詞匯語法基礎(chǔ)及背景知識

這里強調(diào)的其實是英文基礎(chǔ)的重要性。考生想要在考試過程中游刃有余,沒有一定的詞匯量基本是沒有辦法達(dá)成的。當(dāng)然我們在考試中可以通過上下文,轉(zhuǎn)折詞等等猜測生詞的意思。但是,一旦生詞量超過一定比例,勢必會影響考生的理解。說到理解,在雅思考試中碰到長難句是常有的事情。那么扎實的語法基礎(chǔ)也是考生正確理解文章意義的一個重要的必備素質(zhì)。

除去扎實的詞匯語法基礎(chǔ)之外,豐富的背景知識也是一名高分考生所必須的。雅思閱讀考試人文社科類和自然科學(xué)類當(dāng)中有眾多小分支話題,涉及天文、地理、生物、地質(zhì)、語言學(xué)、發(fā)展史等等眾多領(lǐng)域。為了保證考試時的閱讀效率及答題的正確性,考生需要在平時多多查閱相關(guān)資料,了解各類文章背景。

技能二:熟悉題型的做題思路和技巧和出題角度

雅思閱讀考試的題型多種多樣,有細(xì)節(jié)題,有主旨題,有考察整體理解的題型,也有考察辨別信息能力的題型。

因此,建議想要取得高分的學(xué)員,在掌握每種題型的解題技巧的同時,還需要研究的是考試的出題角度,仔細(xì)研究各種題型考察的是何種能力。然后有針對性的去鍛煉這方面的能力。14年的雅思閱讀考試中,所占比重最大的幾類題型為細(xì)節(jié) 配對 題、是非無判斷題、選擇題。之前??嫉?List of headings對在去年的考試中所占比例并不大。14年幾乎每場考試都有細(xì)節(jié)配對題出現(xiàn),那么其實可以反映出雅思考試更加注重考生的細(xì)節(jié)定位能力以及對于材料的理解能力。

技能三:充分到位的精讀和模擬訓(xùn)練是必不可少的

精讀是提高分?jǐn)?shù)的唯一法寶。精讀的方法是:

用一小時完整的做一個Test三篇文章,然后一篇文章一篇文章的開始精讀。

查出每篇文章的所有生詞,并要求認(rèn)知。接著分析文章所有的長難句,翻譯整篇文章。

把所有題的出題點在文章里標(biāo)出來。我們要非常清楚對是為什么對,錯是為什么錯。精讀可以提高同學(xué)們的詞匯、長難句分析能力以及對整篇文章做題思路的理解。

模擬訓(xùn)練可以提高考生兩方面的能力:一是考試答題順序的安排。二是考試時間的合理分配。

首先是答題順序的安排??忌⒉挥猛耆凑湛荚囄恼碌捻樞騺泶痤}。完全可以通過對于標(biāo)題的瀏覽來確定文章大意。然后根據(jù)自己的熟悉程度來選擇文章的先后順序。

另外,在確定了文章的先后順序之后,題目的先后順序其實也是需要進(jìn)行合理安排的。比如14年很流行的段落細(xì)節(jié)配對題,雖然經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)在文章很靠前的位置,但是,無論什么樣的位置出現(xiàn),這種題型都應(yīng)該放在最后來解決。除了答題順序之外,考試時間的精確掌控也是考生是否能夠取得高分的一個重要因素。雅思閱讀考試是個精泛讀結(jié)合過程,不是所有的文字都需要進(jìn)行精讀的,恰恰那些基礎(chǔ)很好有能力有機會考到高分的考生,往往會犯全篇通讀的錯誤,導(dǎo)致最后答題時間不夠,沒能完成所有的題目而不能取得滿意的成績。

保存并繼續(xù)

另外要提醒考生注意的是,在平常的模擬考試中就養(yǎng)成是用答題卡的習(xí)慣,這樣才不至于在考試的時候因為時間不夠而出現(xiàn)答題卡不能填寫完全的情況。相信很多次的模擬練習(xí)之后,考生一定有能力在考試時,用最合理的時間分配進(jìn)行最佳順序的答題,最終取得高分成績。
