暑假来临,各位同学要抓住暑假这段时间,制定合理的学习计划,提升自己的学习水平,暑假是学习和提分的好时间,今天小编为大家带来的是雅思阅读细节题解题要旨,希望可以帮到各位同学和家长。
很多同学都反应说,雅思阅读细节信息匹配题比较难做,甚至有同学在考试中对这一题型的匹配度不是很高,今天新航道教育就跟大家分享一下这一类型的匹配题该怎么做,首先来看一下,这一题型具体长什么样子,先来看一个例子:
Reading Passage 2 has seven paragraphs, A-G.
Which paragraph contains the following information?
Write the correct letter, A-G, in boxes 14-17 on your answer sheet.
NB You may use any letter more than once.
14 a cost involved in purifying domestic water
15 the stages in the development of the farming industry
16 the term used to describe hidden costs
17 one effect of chemicals on water sources
这道题没有给大家选项,只给了四个信息,需要同学们把这四个信息跟段落做一个匹配。这就是细节信息匹配的样式。
在了解了这个题的具体类型以后,接下来看看这个题的解题思路:
1.出题思路—主旨?细节?
大家先思考一下这个题的出题思路是什么,是偏主旨还是偏细节?
匹配题的特点就是题目都是不按照文章顺序出的,简单扼要的说就是两个字:乱序。而细节匹配题除了乱序的特点之外,还有同义替换程度高,以及没有办法像其他匹配题一样拥有选项来帮助我们缩小题目寻找范围等的特点。所以这个题型毫无疑问就成为雅思阅读题中最难的一类了。
2.解题思路:主旨!细节!
其实这个题从核心本质上来看可以用一个主旨题的做法来解答。那怎么利用一个文章的主旨来做一个如此细节题目呢?
作为主旨题做:
文章的结构——前 中 后:分析文章结构与中文一样,英文类的文章结构一般在开始的时候都会做一下铺垫,来引入话题,中间就会是文章最核心的部分,也就是文章的高潮,在最后文章会做一个结论、瞻望未来等。确定了文章结构,再读段落的首句来确定题目位置。
段落大意——段落标题匹配:根据段落大意来预测题目会出现在哪一段。
作为细节题做:
情况1:如果文章的结构或者是段落大意不明晰的时候可以用此方法。
情况2:段落细节信息匹配题与标准信息类别匹配题放在一起考的时候。
例题实战
A For more than forty years the cost of food has been rising. It has now reached a point where a growing number of people believe that it is far too high, and that bringing it down will be one of the great challenges of the twenty first century. That cost, however, is not in immediate cash. In the west at least, most food is now far cheaper to buy in relative terms than it was in 1960. The cost is in the collateral damage of the very methods of food production that have made the food cheaper: in the pollution of water, the enervation of soil, the destruction of wildlife, the harm to animal welfare and the threat to human health caused by modern industrial agriculture.
B First mechanisation, then mass use of chemical fertilisers and pesticides, then monocultures, then battery rearing of livestock, and now genetic engineering - the onward march of intensive farming has seemed unstoppable in the last half-century, as the yields of produce have soared. But the damage it has caused has been colossal. In Britain, for example, many of our best-loved farmland birds, such as the skylark, the grey partridge, the lapwing and the corn bunting, have vanished from huge stretches of countryside, as have even more wild flowers and insects. This is a direct result of the way we have produced our food in the last four decades. Thousands of miles of hedgerows, thousands of ponds, have disappeared from the landscape. The faecal filth of salmon farming has driven wild salmon from many of the sea lochs and rivers of Scotland. Natural soil fertility is dropping in many areas because of continuous industrial fertiliser and pesticide use, while the growth of algae is increasing in lakes because of the fertiliser run-off.
C Put it all together and it looks like a battlefield, but consumers rarely make the connection at the dinner table. That is mainly because the costs of all this damage are what economists refer to as externalities: they are outside the main transaction, which is for example producing and selling a field of wheat, and are borne directly by neither producers nor consumers. To many, the costs may not even appear to be financial at all, but merely aesthetic - a terrible shame, but nothing to do with money. And anyway they, as consumers of food, certainly aren't paying for it, are they?
D But the costs to society can actually be quantified and, when added up, can amount to staggering sums. A remarkable exercise in doing this has been carried out by one of the world's leading thinkers on the future of agriculture, Professor Jules Pretty, Director of the Centre for Environment and Society at the University of Essex. Professor Pretty and his colleagues calculated the externalities of British agriculture for one particular year. They added up the costs of repairing the damage it caused, and came up with a total figure of 2,343m. This is equivalent to 208 for every hectare of arable land and permanent pasture, almost as much again as the total government and EU spend on British farming in that year. And according to Professor Pretty, it was a conservative estimate.
E The costs included: 120m for removal of pesticides; 16m for removal of nitrates; 55m for removal of phosphates and soil; 23m for the removal of the bug cryptosporidium from drinking water by water companies; 125m for damage to wildlife habitats, hedgerows and dry stone walls; 1,113m from emissions of gases likely to contribute to climate change; 106m from soil erosion and organic carbon losses; 169m from food poisoning; and 607m from cattle disease. Professor Pretty draws a simple but memorable conclusion from all this: our food bills are actually threefold. We are paying for our supposedly cheaper food in three separate ways: once over the counter, secondly through our taxes, which provide the enormous subsidies propping up modern intensive farming, and thirdly to clean up the mess that modern farming leaves behind.
F So can the true cost of food be brought down? Breaking away from industrial agriculture as the solution to hunger may be very hard for some countries, but in Britain, where the immediate need to supply food is less urgent, and the costs and the damage of intensive farming have been clearly seen, it may be more feasible. The government needs to create sustainable, competitive and diverse farming and food sectors, which will contribute to a thriving and sustainable rural economy, and advance environmental, economic, health, and animal welfare goals.
G But if industrial agriculture is to be replaced, what is a viable alternative? Professor Pretty feels that organic farming would be too big a jump in thinking and in practices for many farmers. Furthermore, the price premium would put the produce out of reach of many poorer consumers. He is recommending the immediate introduction of a ‘Greener Food Standard', which would push the market towards more sustainable environmental practices than the current norm, while not requiring the full commitment to organic production. Such a standard would comprise agreed practices for different kinds of farming, covering agrochemical use, soil health, land management, water and energy use, food safety and animal health. It could go a long way, he says, to shifting consumers as well as farmers towards a more sustainable system of agriculture.
Which paragraph contains the following information?
Write the correct letter, A-G, in boxes 14-17 on your answer sheet.
NB You may use any letter more than once.
14 a cost involved in purifying domestic water
15 the stages in the development of the farming industry
16 the term used to describe hidden costs
17 one effect of chemicals on water sources
这是一个议论型的文章,根据前面提到的出题思路和解题思路,基本上可以确定文章核心的部分开始于C段、D段,C段首句用了一个指代,说明是在与前文做联系,最后一句是一个反问,有承上启下的作用,D段首句有一个强转折。再通过分析我们可以知道文章的结构是A、B段是背景 ,C段是过渡 ,D、E段真正代价的总说分说,F、G段是对解决这个问题的考虑。了解了文章的结构,接下来做题的时候就方便很多。
14:E段首句是:“The costs included…”,答案定位在E段
15:说农业产业发展的问题,在讲背景,定位到A和B段
16、17题的做题方法相似,同学们可以自己做一下。
