托福閱讀變化及新題型解讀

字號(hào):


    閱讀是新托福中變化最小的一部分。我們過去培訓(xùn)閱讀的材料和方法仍然有效。主要變化是增加了二種新題型。
    ? 新托福閱讀的整體變化如下:
    1. iBT的閱讀量減少至三篇文章,第一篇文章規(guī)定二十分鐘內(nèi)做完。后兩篇共分配四十分鐘。
    2. 每篇文章的長度大幅度增長,每篇大約六百到七百字,大約比原來多百分之五十的篇幅??偣灿腥艂€(gè)問題。
    ? iBT 閱讀中的新題型:
    1. 句子解釋題:選擇某個(gè)選項(xiàng)來正確表達(dá)文章某句話(通常是一個(gè)較長的復(fù)雜句)的主要意思。例如:
    Passage: Were Earth to be juxtaposed with the Great Red Spot, our planet would be dwarfed in comparison, with a diameter less than half that of the Great Red Spot。。。。。。
    Question: Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.
    Ο The density of the Great Red Spot is much higher than that of the Earth.
    Ο If the diameter of the Great Red Spot were doubled, it would equal that of the Earth.
    Ο By placing the Earth next to the Great Red Spot, one could see that the Earth has a much smaller diameter.
    Ο Because the Earth is close to the Great Red Spot, Earth is influenced by its huge size.
    通過分析理解,第三項(xiàng)正確地表達(dá)了那句話的意思。
    2. 多項(xiàng)選擇題:要求對(duì)文章中的信息分類,填表或完成一個(gè)總結(jié)。而且這種題目的分值通常是二到四分,所以相當(dāng)重要。限于篇幅我們略去文章,只展示問題,給大家一個(gè)直觀的感覺
