托福閱讀常見(jiàn)考察同學(xué)們的文章檢索能力,信息比對(duì)能力,信息分析處理能力,和最終的信息總結(jié)能力;在所有能力當(dāng)中,最優(yōu)先考察或者說(shuō)最底層的基礎(chǔ)能力就是信息檢索,也就是細(xì)節(jié)定位,但是有趣的是,有時(shí)還需要同學(xué)們做一些簡(jiǎn)單的數(shù)學(xué)計(jì)算。
但是,檢索能力要求同學(xué)們要優(yōu)先判斷用哪些細(xì)節(jié)來(lái)定位,也就是判斷出有價(jià)值的信息,比如:
According to paragraph 1, which of the following groups of mammals experienced a high extinction rate at the end of the Pleistocene
A. Large mammals living in North America
B. Small mammals living in South America
C. Large mammals living in South Africa
D. Large mammals living in Europe
首先閱讀題干,發(fā)現(xiàn)題干信息較多,似乎“groups of mammals experienced a high extinction rate at the end of the Pleistocene”都是重要信息,但是我們除了可以鎖定題干的信息,也可以同時(shí)掃讀選項(xiàng)的信息,發(fā)現(xiàn)4個(gè)選項(xiàng)的主要差異;閱讀之后發(fā)現(xiàn),選項(xiàng)的差異集中在地名和mammal的大小上,那么做題時(shí)可以更多地根據(jù)選項(xiàng)差異來(lái)定位和分析了。
原文:
At the end of the Pleistocene (roughly 11,500 years ago), many large mammals became extinct. Large mammals in the Americas and Australia were particularly hard- hit. In Australia, 15 of the continent's 16 of large mammals died out; North America lost 33 of 45 genera of large mammals, and in South America 46 of 58 such genera went extinct. In contrast, Europe lost only 7 of 23 such genera, and in Africa south of the Sahara only 2 of 44 died out.
鎖定好信息,確認(rèn)地名,再來(lái)比對(duì)信息,發(fā)現(xiàn): North America丟失了33/45的large mammal,而South America丟失了46/58,Europe丟失了7/23,South Africa丟失了2/44
然后do the math, 通過(guò)計(jì)算可以得知,數(shù)值最大的是South America,正確答案即是B。
準(zhǔn)確定位,能夠避免做題時(shí)過(guò)度推斷和引出無(wú)關(guān)信息,但偶爾基礎(chǔ)的計(jì)算能力也是必須的,讓同學(xué)們能快速比對(duì)出最佳答案。
