23、要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握”。主要考查考生的逻辑能力,包括整篇语言逻辑和句与句之间上下文逻辑关系的判断;备选答案中含有两个干扰选项,这两个干扰选项在表面上看往往与正确答案有一定的相关性,这给考生解题带来很大的困难;文章篇幅较长,解题时间有限,选错一题甚至会造成两题出错。该题型要求考生从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系,理解句子之间、段落之间的关系,对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握,并具备运用语法知识分析理解长难句的能力。可以说,此题型是对语言能力和阅读理解能力的综合测试,因此在要求上远远高于这两种题型,考生有必要对这类题型的答题思

26、ancing.解题技巧依据词汇线索词汇线索主要包括代词线索和词汇复现两种情况。1代词线索英语表达中,代词出现的频率极高。代词主要是为避免重复,用于指代前面提到的人或物,有时也用于指代前面提到的名词或概念。巧妙利用这样的指代关系可以有效地帮助我们做出正确的选择。2词汇复现词汇复现指相同词汇的重复使用、同义词和近义词的复现或同一范畴词的复现。英语的线性思维表现为第一句话的宾语,往往是第二句的主语,或者前后句有相同或重叠的词语。这种前后句语义的衔接常以句子中关键词(常为名词、动词、形容词)的同义词、近义词(组)或反义词(组)复现的方式来实现。解题时可以利用这些词作为解题线索。“I adore dan
27、cing,” says Lester Bridges,the owner of a dance studio in Iowa.“I cant imagine doing anything else with my life.” Bridges runs dance classes for all ages.“Teaching dance is wonderful.

28、Dance in the US.is everywhere.CIf you like dancing outdoors,come to America.DMy older students say it makes them feel young.EI keep practicing even when Im extremely tired.FDancing seems to change their feeling completely.GThey stayed up all night long singing and dancing.D本句起到承上启下的作用。根据设空前一句“Teachi
29、ng dance is wonderful.”可知,下文应与教别人跳舞有关,又根据设空后一句“Its great to watch them.”中的“them”可知,待填句中应包含一个表示人的复数名词,故选D。请快速确定下面这段文字的词汇线索题。When you need to talk to someone,dont do it in your own office. ,its much easier to excuse yourself to get back to your work than if you try to get someone out of your space eve
30、n after explaining how busy you are.AIf youre busy,dont feel bad about saying noBWhen you want to avoid interruptions at workCSet boundaries for yourself as far as your time goesDIf youre in the other persons office or in a public areaEIts important that you let them know when youll be availableFIt might seem unkind to cut people short when they interrupt youGLeave it open when youre available to talk and close it when youre notD解答本题可利用词汇复现作为解题线索。对比本空以及所给的选项,可以看出空格前的“in your own office.”与D项中的“in the other persons office”相对应。前文说“不要在自己的办公室谈事情”,后文说“如果你在别人的办公室或公共场合,借口要回去工作要容易得多”才是符合语境的。所以答案选D。
