問題形式
這類問題主要考察考生對文章中一個觀點或立場的理解程度,而這種觀點或立場是作者在文章中強烈暗示但并沒有明確闡明的。比如說,如果文章陳述了一個事件的結(jié)果,那么推論類問題就很可能問考生其原因是什么;如果文章出現(xiàn)對比,那么此類問題就可能問考生其對比的基礎(chǔ)是什么。
注意:解答此類問題時,考生不僅需要理解作者所寫出句子的字面意思,還必須搞清楚這些句子之間的邏輯性暗示。正確答案一定是從文章已給出的內(nèi)容中推論出來的。
這種題目的提問方式通常為:

4. 仔細閱讀并且理解原文中的對應(yīng)內(nèi)容,直接確定答案或者利用排除法確定答案。
注意:錯誤選項通常為
★ 不被文中所給出或暗示的信息所支持

★ 過于籠統(tǒng)或模糊
★ 不真實、不準確
★ 與文章不相關(guān)或者沒有被提及
解題范例
The extreme seriousness of desertification results from the vast areas of land and the tremendous numbers of people affected, as well as from the great difficulty of reversing or even slowing the process. Once the soil has been removed by erosion, only the passage of centuries or millennia will enable new soil to form. In areas where considerable soil still remains, through, a rigorously enforced program of land protection and cover-crop planting may make it possible to reverse the present deterioration of the surface.
It can be inferred from the passage that the author most likely believes which of the following about the future of desertification?
○ Governments will act quickly to control further desertification.
○ The factors influencing desertification occur in cycles and will change in the future.
● Desertification will continue to increase.
○ Desertification will soon occur in all areas of the world.
