剑桥雅思4 Test2的阅读是不是很难
雅思阅读判断题技巧汇总!雅思阅读考试一共有三篇文章,每篇文章的题目数量不一样,题目的类型也不相同,其中比较常见也是让考生比较头疼的是每次都会遇见的判断题,尤其是再区分“False”和“Not Given”的时候,会影响考生的判断,那么雅思阅读判断题技巧有哪些呢,下面小编为大家一一道来。1、题目实在考察考生对文章跳读、扫读和对细节进行阅读理解的能力,题目和文章的顺序基本对应,这里小编考生建议先看题,带这这些问题去阅读文章,在文章中确定段落之后,再快速阅读该段落,定位到相关位置,是进行判断。
2、一般如果题目和原文是同义表达,或是对原文句子进行了合理的推理,都是TURE;如果题目与原文相反,或者原文说A和B都可以,而题目说只有A或B才可以,或者是原文表达的是一种可能性,但是题目强调是既定事实,再或者原文和题目使用了不同的表范围、频率的词,一种是题目中去掉了原文中包含有条件的成分,以上五种情况都选FALSE;那么NOT GIVEN呢?雅思阅读基本的情况是文章当中完全没有提及到,或是题目缩小了原文的范围,更加具体,或是原文中表达的是某种愿望和意向,题目却说成是事实,又或是题目中加入了原文本没有的比较。
3、具体如何运用这些原则需要在练习的过程中去细细体味,小编这里要提醒的是,判断题的书写问题。要按照题目的要求进行书写:如果题目要求写TRUE、FALSE、NOTGIVEN,写TRUE、FALSE、NOTGIVEN;如果题目要求写YES、NO、NOTGIVEN,写YES、NO、NOTGIVEN,也不能小写,也不能缩写。这也是需要在备考的时候养成良好的答题习惯。
这些关于雅思阅读判断题技巧大可以再平时复习中灵活运用,提高自己的正确率,争取考取满意的成绩。

雅思阅读高分技巧:
雅思阅读高分技巧1.identify the writer’s overall purpose, target audience, sources etc. 辨识作者的写作目的,目标读者,和文章来源
这种阅读技能需要学生从文章的结构,内容,用词通篇考虑。往往对应的是文章最后的一道选择题。一般说来,雅思阅读文章的写作目的一般是介绍某个社会现象,目标读者一般都是普通的具有一定认知能力的非专业性读者,文章都来自一些偏学术化的杂志和书籍。但具体的写作目的目标读者和文章来源要具体分析了。那么同学们平时读一些文章的时候就下意识地问问自己作者为什么写这篇文章,作者希望什么样的人来读这样的文章等等这样的问题,其实问这些问题既是读懂一篇文章的手段也是目的。如果读完了一篇文章还不能回答这样的问题证明可能有些地方确实没读懂。
雅思阅读高分技巧2.identify and follow key arguments in a text 识别并读懂文章中的主要论述观点
这种阅读技能是指从整体去把握一篇文章的结构,并对相应的重要的文章观点进行提炼理解的能力。雅思的阅读文章比较学术性,所以相对与其他的文体而言结构其实是比较容易把握的。但还是需要经过真题文章的仔细分析体会去学习英文议论说明性文字的结构特点,尤其注意体会区别出作者自己的观点和别人的观点,以及先负后正的写法。
雅思阅读高分技巧3.identify opinions and attitudes as opposed to facts 区分事实与观点态度
能够区分文章中的内容是观点态度或者是事实是一个阅读者应该具备的基本技能。如果阅读的时候不分青红皂白都认为是事实,我们就缺失了对文章信息的判断能力,阅读将可能是极其混乱的。人们不只在阅读外语文章的时候会犯这种错误。那么在文章中如果出现一些类似表示观点态度的词(比如 maintain, argue)要注意,这些词后面出现的应该就是观点和态度。观点和态度是主观的,不能被证明的。但如果是这样的表达:evidence show, experiment suggest后面跟的就应该是事实,可以被证明的。
雅思阅读高分技巧4.locate specific information 定位细节信息
雅思阅读有一种比较难的题型which paragraph contains the following information考察的就是定位细节信息的能力。这种能力是考察学生能不能在海量的信息里找到你最想找的信息然后进行阅读的能力。这反应了国外大学阅读量巨大的要求。学生不可能每个字都读,得具备这种找到最有价值的一点然后再进行相关阅读的能力。平时训练这种scanning的阅读技能。当然如果对全文结构不做一个skimming也就是大致了解文章结构而大致知道在哪几段中寻找,这种任务基本上是不可能完成的。这也反应了读书的一个基本步骤,拿到一本书我们应该先看目录,知道书的大致结构再由此在最相关的段落中寻找阅读兴趣点。因此这种题型需要skimming+scanning两种阅读技能的结合才能准确快速地解题。
雅思阅读高分技巧5.read for detailed information 细致阅读
雅思阅读高分技巧6.extract relevant information 摘取相关信息
当定位到最相关的句子之后,雅思阅读考试是希望学生能细致阅读并摘取出相关的信息答案的。而不是象那种什么不阅读阅读法说的那样不需要读原文就能解出答案。那么平时大家也应该进行相应的精读训练,把一些平时难以读懂的句子仔细通过各种方法真正读懂其意思。当然阅读的时候应该带着问题去有针对性的阅读,搜寻我们想通过阅读得出的最相关的信息。这些阅读技能对应的是雅思绝大部分的细节题:包括填空题,表格题,句子完成题。
雅思阅读高分技巧7.distinguish the main idea from supporting detail 区分主旨和细节

Thomas Young
The Last True Know-It-All
A Thomas Young (1773-1829) contributed 63 articles to the Encyclopedia Britannica, including 46 biographical entries (mostly on scientists and classicists) and substantial essays on "Bridge,” "Chromatics," "Egypt," "Languages" and "Tides". Was someone who could write authoritatively about so many subjects a polymath, a genius or a dilettante? In an ambitious new biography, Andrew Robinson argues that Young is a good contender for the epitaph "the last man who knew everything." Young has competition, however: The phrase, which Robinson takes for his title, also serves as the subtitle of two other recent biographies: Leonard Warren's 1998 life of paleontologist Joseph Leidy (1823-1891) and Paula Findlen's 2023 book on Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680), another polymath.
B Young, of course, did more than write encyclopedia entries. He presented his first paper to the Royal Society of London at the age of 20 and was elected a Fellow a week after his 21st birthday. In the paper, Young explained the process of accommodation in the human eye on how the eye focuses properly on objects at varying distances. Young hypothesized that this was achieved by changes in the shape of the lens. Young also theorized that light traveled in waves and he believed that, to account for the ability to see in color, there must be three receptors in the eye corresponding to the three "principal colors" to which the retina could respond: red, green, violet. All these hypothesis were subsequently proved to be correct.
C Later in his life, when he was in his forties, Young was instrumental in cracking the code that unlocked the unknown script on the Rosetta Stone, a tablet that was "found" in Egypt by the Napoleonic army in 1799. The stone contains text in three alphabets: Greek, something unrecognizable and Egyptian hieroglyphs. The unrecognizable script is now known as demotic and, as Young deduced, is related directly to hieroglyphic. His initial work on this appeared in his Britannica entry on Egypt. In another entry, he coined the term Indo-European to describe the family of languages spoken throughout most of Europe and northern India. These are the landmark achievements of a man who was a child prodigy and who, unlike many remarkable children, did not disappear into oblivion as an adult.
D Born in 1773 in Somerset in England, Young lived from an early age with his maternal grandfather, eventually leaving to attend boarding school. He haddevoured books from the age of two, and through his own initiative he excelled at Latin, Greek, mathematics and natural philosophy. After leaving school, he was greatly encouraged by his mother's uncle, Richard Brocklesby, a physician and Fellow of the Royal Society. Following Brocklesby's lead, Young decided to pursue a career in medicine. He studied in London, following the medical circuit, and then moved on to more formal education in Edinburgh, Gottingen and Cambridge. After completing his medical training at the University of Cambridge in 1808, Young set up practice as a physician in London. He soon became a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and a few years later was appointed physician at St. George's Hospital.
E Young's skill as a physician, however, did not equal his skill as a scholar of natural philosophy or linguistics. Earlier, in 1801, he had been appointed to a professorship of natural philosophy at the Royal Institution, where he delivered as many as 60 lectures in a year. These were published in two volumes in 1807. In 1804 Young had become secretary to the Royal Society, a post he would hold until his death. His opinions were sought on civic and national matters, such as the introduction of gas lighting to London and methods of ship construction. From 1819 he was superintendent of the Nautical Almanac and secretary to the Board of Longitude. From 1824 to 1829 he was physician to and inspector of calculations for the Palladian Insurance Company. Between 1816 and 1825 he contributed his many and various entries to the Encyclopedia Britannica, and throughout his career he authored numerous books, essays and papers.
F Young is a perfect subject for a biography - perfect, but daunting. Few men contributed so much to so many technical fields. Robinson's aim is to introduce non-scientists to Young's work and life. He succeeds, providing clear expositions of the technical material (especially that on optics and Egyptian hieroglyphs). Some readers of this book will, like Robinson, find Young's accomplishments impressive; others will see him as some historians have - as a dilettante. Yet despite the rich material presented in this book, readers will not end up knowing Young personally. We catch glimpses of a playful Young, doodling Greek and Latin phrases in his notes on medical lectures and translating the verses that a young lady had written on the walls of a summerhouse into Greek elegiacs. Young was introduced into elite society, attended the theatre and learned to dance and play the flute. In addition, he was an accomplished horseman. However, his personal life looks pale next to his vibrant career and studies.
G Young married Eliza Maxwell in 1804, and according to Robinson, "their marriage was a happy one and she appreciated his work." Almost all we know about her is that she sustained her husband through some rancorous disputes about optics and that she worried about money when his medical career was slow to take off. Very little evidence survives about the complexities of Young's relationships with his mother and father. Robinson does not credit them, or anyone else, with shaping Young's extraordinary mind. Despite the lack of details concerning Young's relationships, however, anyone interested in what it means to be a genius should read this book.

试题分析
Question 1-7
题目类型:True / false /not given
题号定位词文中对应点题目解析
1Other peopleA段第四句“Young has competition, however: The phrase, which Robinson takes for his title, also serves as the subtitle of two other recent biographies: Leonard Warren's 1998 life of paleontologist Joseph Leidy (1823-1891) and Paula Findlen's 2023 book on Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680), another polymath.”该句中明确给出了Young还有其他的竞争者,他们的传记中也同样拥有这样的小标题,分别是Leonard Warren写的关于Joseph Leidy的传记,以及 Paula Findlen's写的关于Athanasius Kircher的传记。
因此,本题答案为True
2all, articlesB段第一、二句B段第一句 “Young, of course, did more than write encyclopedia entries.”明确表示Young所做的远不仅仅是编辑大英百科全书的词条,因此并不是所有的都在百科全书。而在本段第二句中,作者指出,Young在20岁的时候将自己的第一篇论文自荐给伦敦皇家学会,并在一年后成为该学会的会员: He presented his first paper to the Royal Society of London at the age of 20 and was elected a Fellow a week after his 21st birthday。Paper与article为近意思。显然,题干与原文含义相反。
因此,本题答案为False
3likeC段最后一句C段整体是在介绍Young晚年的主要成就,即Young长大后的成就。此外,在C段最后一句中,作者明确指出Young和其他的孩子不同的一点在于,Young并没有像其他那些年少成名而后来江郎才尽的孩子一样,他后来同样取得了非凡的成就: These are the landmark achievements of a man who was a child prodigy and who, unlike many remarkable children, did not disappear into oblivion as an adult.句中的unlike为like的反义词,显然题干与原文含义相反。
因此,本题答案为False
4surpassingD段第四、七句D段介绍了Young的成长背景和经历,同时体现出其涉猎范围较为广泛。其中第四句中提到Young决定学医,并且在后面的介绍中指出Young还参加戏剧演出,学习跳舞和吹笛子: He then broke with his Quaker upbringing by attending the theater and learning to dance and play the flute. In addition, he was an accomplished horseman.而在第七句中作者指出Young还是一名杰出的马术师。但是并未指出Young在哪个方面的造诣更高,更有天赋。Surpassing这个概念并没有在文中体现。
因此,本题答案为Not Given
5soughtE段第四句“ His opinions were sought on civic and national matters”,文中表明Young的很多观点关注人民和国家事务。题干与原文含义相同。
因此,本题答案为True
6Interested in, social pastimeF段第七句“We catch glimpses of a playful Young, doodling Greek and Latin phrases in his notes on medical lectures and translating the verses that a young lady had written on the walls of a summerhouse into Greek elegiacs.”文中指出,通过Young的医学演讲中乱写的希腊字母和拉丁短语以及将一位年轻女性写在凉亭上的诗歌翻译成希腊挽歌便能看出他的幽默。显然,Young对于这样的社交娱乐是感兴趣的。题干和原文相符合。
因此,本题答案为True
7disease, later yearsC段第一句,G段第一句C段第一句给出了“later in his life,”但是本段近讲述了Young晚年在学术方面的成就;G段给出了Young的婚后生活,以及Robinson在书中并未提及Young与父母间的关系。但无论哪一个点都没有提及其晚年饱受某种疾病之苦。
因此,本题答案为Not Given
题目类型:Short-answer question
8life storiesA段第一句“Thomas Young (1773-1829) contributed 63 articles to the Encyclopedia Britannica, including 46 biographical entries (mostly on scientists and classicists)…”该剧中的“biographical entries”指传记词条,与题干中的life stories表示相同涵义。
因此,本题答案为46
9first academic paperB段第三句“In the paper, on how the eye focuses properly on objects at varying distances, Young hypothesized that deformation of the crystalline lens accomplished the accommodation.”B段段首表明,Young将自己的第一篇论文自荐给了伦敦皇家学会学会。因此本段讨论的是其第一篇论文。而本段第三句指出,在这篇论文中,Young主要讨论了人类眼球的调节机制
因此,本题答案为humaneye或human eye accommodation
10a group of languagesC段第五句“In another entry, he coined the term Indo-European to describe the family of languages spoken throughout most of Europe and northern India.”该句指出,Young创造了术语 Indo-European来描述在欧洲大部分地区以及北印度使用的语言。
因此,本题答案为Indo-European
11inspire, medical studiesD段第四句D段前面介绍了Young童年时期的生活背景。本段第四句中则指出:“Following Brocklesby's lead, Young decided to pursue a career in medicine.”。显然,正是因为 Richard Brocklesby的引导,Young才决定在医学方面有所建树。
因此,本题答案为 Richard Brocklesby
12teaching positionE段第二句“ Earlier, in 1801, he had been appointed to a professorship of natural philosophy at the Royal Institution”,题干中的teaching position与E段第二句中的professorship均表示“教师职位”,该句明确指出,Young作为自然哲学的教授,受聘于英国科学研究所。
因此,本题答案为 Royal Institution
13LondonE段第五句“His opinions were sought on civic and national matters, such as the introduction of gas lighting to London and methods of ship construction.”E段主要介绍了Young作为自然哲学学者取得的成就。而第五句则列举了Young的两个成就,其对于伦敦的所做出的成就在于煤气照明的引入。
因此,本题答案为gas lighting
A我们该怎样理解托马斯·杨(1773-1829)?他是《大不列颠百科全书》中63篇文章的作者,其中包括46篇传记(大部分都是关于科学家和古典学者),和大量关于“桥” “色彩论” “埃及” “语吉” “潮汐”等的论文。一个能够写出这样多有权威性文章的人应该算是一个博学者? 一个天才?还是一个业余兴趣广泛的人呢?在一篇关于他的比较激进的传记中,Andrew Robinson 认为托马斯杨是-位强有力的竞争者能够配得这样的墓志铭“是最后一个知道任何事的人”。但是杨也要面对竞争:因为这样的传记标题Robinson不仅给了他,也作为副标题给了有关另两位学者的传记:Lenard Warren 1998年著的《古生物学家Joseph Leipy的一生》(1823-1891)以及Paula Findlen 2023年著的关于另一位博学者Athanasius Kircher(1602-1680)的传记。
B当然杨的贡献远不止写了很多百科全书上的文章,他在20岁的时候将自己的第一篇论文自荐给伦敦皇家学会,并在他的21岁生日后被评为一周科学人物,杨在该篇论文中解释了人类眼睛的调节机制一一关于眼睛如何通过不同的距离聚焦在物体上。在后面的文章中,他更加全面地探讨了这个问题,类似牛顿,他在自己身上进行了可怕的实验用以获得相关的证据,他还得出这样的理论:光是通过“以太”分子的振动,以波的形式进行传递的,而“以太”是一种假想物质,其存在还存在争议性。他还认为为了能看见颜色,必须要有3个感应器对“三原色”进行感应,而这三种视网膜对其产生感应的颜色就是红,黄,蓝二种颜色。
C在他人生的晚些时候,也就是40多岁的时候,杨试图破解锁在罗塞塔石碑里的未知文字密码,这个石碑是在1799年在埃及被拿破仑的军队发现的,并且从1802年起就在英国博物馆进行展出。该石碑上包含了 3种不同的字母:希腊语,不可辨识的文字以及埃及的象形文字。这种不可辨识的文字现在被认为是正如杨所推断的是很普通的,是和象形文字直接相关的。他最初有关这方面的工作首次出现在他在《大不列颠百科全书》中编纂的词条。在另一个条目中,他创造了术语“Indo-European”来描述在欧洲大部分地区以及北印度使用的语言。这些都是这是这位从小就展露科学天赋并且不像很多孩子后来江郎才尽的科学家获得的里程碑式的成就。
D托马斯·杨出生在英国萨默塞特郡一个虔诚的教友会教徒家庭,从小和他的外公一起长大,最后去了寄宿学校。他两岁的时候就博览群书,并且自学熟练掌握了拉丁语,希腊语,数学以及哲学,在很大程度上他受到了舅舅Richard Brocklesby的鼓励,他的舅舅也是英国皇家学会的一位内科医生。在Brocklesby的引导下,杨决定要在医学方而有所建树,他曾先后在伦敦大学、爱丁堡大学和格丁根大学学习医学,多亏了Brocklesby的引荐,杨进入了英国皇家学会,他最后也打破了从小在教友会的教育,他参加戏剧演出,学习跳舞和吹笛子,此外,他还是一位杰出的马术师。在1808年结束在剑桥大学的医学学习后,杨在伦敦开了一家诊所,很快他就成为皇家内科医生学会的一员,并且几年后成为圣乔治医院的一名内科医生。
E杨作为内科医生的医术却赶不上他作为自然哲学学者或是语言学家取得的成就,早在1801年,他已经被任命为英国皇家学会的教授,他每年要在那里举办60场的讲座。这些讲座在1807年以两本书的形式进行出版。1804年杨就已经成为英国朵家学会的秘书,而他获此殊荣直至去世。他的很多观点关注人民和国家事务,比如说在伦敦引进煤气照明和造船方法。从1819年起,他就是航海天文年历的主要负责人,也是Board of Longitude的秘书。从1824年到1829年,他担任Palladian 保险公司的精算师和内科医生。在1816年和1825年间,他为《大不列颠百科全书》编纂了许多词条,而且穷其一生著作,论文无数。
F我们通过杨在医学课上胡乱写的希腊字母和拉丁文短语以及他将一位年轻的女士写在避暑山庄墙上的诗句翻译成挽歌可以看出他的幽默,但是他的个人生活也因为自己对工作和研究的全情投入而略显苍白。
G他在1804年和Eliza Maxwell结婚,据Robinson所述“他们的婚姻是幸福的,因为他的夫人欣赏他的工作”。我们对于他夫人的了解仅限于她在她丈夫备受一些关于眼睛的理论方面争议的时候总是坚定地支持他,并且当他的医学生涯开始慢慢起飞的时候,她开始有些担心钱的问题。值得一提的是,杨没有被保护的人,他都是和自己的导师进行互动一一先是他的外公,后是Brocklesby一一还有先于他过失的一些伟人(其中很多是很著名的如牛顿,杨最早在17岁读了他写的书)。但是关于杨和他母亲以及父亲的关系的记述却鲜力人知,Robinson在说到杨的非凡的头脑时也并没有将其归功于他的父母,或许很难有这样的巧合:过去的天才都是由于卓越的父母教育造就的。
