四、既理解个别句子的意义,也理解上下文之间的意义关系(常见,题干无固定形式)
学员们对文章个别句子好像是“理解”的,但由于不理解它与上下文中其他句子的逻辑关系,因而整篇文章讲的是什么则不能准确掌握。在阅读理解测试中,但从考核目标和内容来看,要求学员准确理解一些有关联的句子之间的逻辑关系(例如概括和举例说明、前因后果、行为动机、比较、条件或让步等)。
1. Which of the following may cause/lead to 。。。 according to the passage?
2. Sb. is asked/advised to do sth. Because ________。
3. The aim of.。。 is/was ______。
4. The best solution for 。。。 seems to be ________
5. is specifically mentioned in paragraph 。。。 as an example of _______。
6. The author argues that a teacher‘s chief concern should be ________
7. According to the passage/author, people differ in their opinions about 。
8. … encourages the use of sth. so that _______
9. According to the passage the new device proved to be _________
10. Which of the following best characterizes the main feature of.。。 ?
五、根据所读材料进行判断和推论(难度比较大)
对理解字里行间的言外之意以及作者的观点、写作意图和态度十分重要,要求考生推断文章的含义和引申意思(根据文章所提供的部分信息或文章的含义进行归纳);判断所节选文章的某一部分的内容要点;有时甚至要求推断作者的身分。
下面是判断、推理的一些常见的表达方式:
1. What is implied in the sentence(s) 。。。 ?
2. It is implied in the passage that
3. The passage implies / suggests that
4. It can be inferred/seen/concluded from the passage that
5. Which of the following can be inferred from this passage?
6. Which of the following can be concluded from this passage?

10. In Which of the following publications would this passage most likely be printed?
11. The paragraph following the passage would most probably discuss
12. What would the paragraph preceding this passage probably discuss?
六、领会作者的观点、意图和态度回答这类题首先要在阅读过程中注意体会和觉察作者的观点、意图和态度。这种信息有时是直接表达的,但更多的是间接、含蓄的流露。作者的主观情感和态度往往和全文的主题和要点相关联。
