判斷 judgment
判斷詞的選擇
考生們在參加雅思考試時,往往會遇到無法確定考試中考點的問題。有些同學費盡心思在文中找到答案出處,仔細比較原文和題目間的關系,但最終發(fā)現(xiàn)依然選擇錯誤,以下是一道經(jīng)典真題:
以下是雅思考試的一道真題,反映出了雅思考試閱讀部分對于學生判斷的考察,
原文: Educating Psyche by Bernie Neville is a book which looks at radical new approaches to learning, describing the effects of emotion, imagination and the unconscious on learning. One theory discussed in the book is that proposed by George Lozanov, which focuses on the power of suggestion.
題目:
The book Educating psyche is mainly concerned with
A. The power of suggestion in learning .
B. A particular technique for learning based on emotions
C. The effects of emotion on the imagination and the unconscious
D. Ways of learning which are not traditional
正確答案: D
題目分析:本題是雅思閱讀考試中的典型題型,題目中的選項和原文分別由對應關系。其中最具有迷惑性的是C選項,選項中的內(nèi)容The effects of emotion on the imagination and the unconscious 基本為原文原詞,這會讓很多同學與原文中的describing the effects of emotion, imagination and the unconscious on learning.混淆,誤以為這兩個句子表達的是同樣的意思??忌鷤冏屑氂^察會發(fā)現(xiàn),原文的意思是:情緒、想象力和無意識在學習中的影響。題目中的意思是:情緒對于想象力和無意識的影響。這兩個句子在中文意思上差別很大,如果考生在考場中無法準確的翻譯出句子的意思可以簡單的比較兩個句子的內(nèi)容。題目中的句子是emotion on the imagination and the unconscious,而原文是effects of emotion, imagination and the unconscious。原文的句子中emotion, imagination and the unconscious這三個詞是并列的,而在題目中則不是。A選項里的The power of suggestion是原文內(nèi)容,也具有較大的迷惑性,但是縱觀全文會發(fā)現(xiàn)A選項中的in learning 在原文中是沒有提到的,屬于推斷內(nèi)容。B選項內(nèi)容屬于原文中完全沒有提及,這樣的選項屬于難度較低的選項,針對的是基礎較差的學生。D選項為正確選項,選項中的 not traditional對應原文中的radical new 這兩個選項雖然使用的單詞完全不一樣,但是表達的意思卻是相同的。
In general, it is plausible to suppose that we should prefer peace and quiet to noise. And yet most of us have had the experience of having to adjust to sleeping in the mountains or the countryside because it was initially 'too quiet', an experience that suggests that humans are capable of adapting to a wide range of noise levels.
The writer suggests that people may have difficulty sleeping in the mountains because
A. Humans do not prefer peace and quiet to noise
B. They may be exposed to short bursts of very strange sounds
C. Humans prefer to hear certain amount of noise while whey sleeps.
D. They may have adapted to a higher noise level in the city.
