SAT常見結(jié)構(gòu)指示詞

字號(hào):

在今天的SAT常見詞匯復(fù)習(xí)中,我們要給大家介紹的是結(jié)構(gòu)詞匯,即Direction Words。結(jié)構(gòu)指示詞在SAT 詞匯學(xué)習(xí)中的作用體現(xiàn)在三個(gè)方面:幫助我們預(yù)判focus或topic,幫助我們預(yù)判細(xì)節(jié)關(guān)系或者說是細(xì)節(jié)結(jié)構(gòu),幫助我們確定閱讀速度的快慢。下面我們來進(jìn)行SAT常見詞匯結(jié)構(gòu)指示詞的復(fù)習(xí),來看下面的例子:
     Reports on an organization’s projects may fill several major functions at the same time. A report can be used to educate and gain support from key people and groups, to facilitate and inform decision-making about current and future projects, and to provide documentation for the organization’s records.
     上面文字中的several是一個(gè)不定數(shù)詞,它屬于Classification & Listing這一類Direction Words,當(dāng)它出現(xiàn)在觀點(diǎn)句中或者結(jié)論句中的時(shí)候,它表明緊跟在它后面的名詞或者名詞短語就是下面文字的topic or focus,在這里我們知道下面文字的中心是報(bào)告的主要功能(major functions)。其次通過several這一結(jié)構(gòu)指示詞,我們還可以判定下面的細(xì)節(jié)部分不是分類討論結(jié)構(gòu)就是列舉結(jié)構(gòu)。最后我們既然已經(jīng)能夠預(yù)判下文的中心和結(jié)構(gòu),也就自然能夠加快閱讀速度了,畢竟已知大意和目的的內(nèi)容可以加快閱讀。
