  托福阅读考试是托福考试当中的第一个部分,托福阅读题型包括词汇题,指代题,句子简化题,句子插入题,细节题,否定信息题,推理题,作者目的题,小结题和图表填空题。

  本期主要给大家介绍一下托福推理题以及它的解题方法。

  托福阅读题型:推理题例题解题方法

  . Inference questions 推理题

  推理题的标志是在题干中出现infer/imply/suggest/indicate/most likely 这样的词汇,它和细节题属于同源题目,都需要定位并且根据文中信息来选择答案。与细节题不同的是,推理题在找到原文中定位点之后考察的是学生对于文中信息的总结概括,或者反向推理的能力。我们来看一道例题,

  It should be obvious that cetaceans-whales, porpoises, and dolphins-are mammals. They breathe through lungs, not through gills, and give birth to live young. Their streamlined bodies, the absence of hind legs, and the presence of a fluke3 and blowhole4 cannot disguise their affinities with land-dwelling mammals. However, unlike the cases of sea otters and pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses, whose limbs are functional both on land and at sea), it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like. Extinct but, already fully marine cetaceans are known from the fossil record. How was the gap between a walking mammal and a swimming whale bridged? Missing until recently were fossils clearly intermediate, or transitional, between land mammals and cetaceans.

  Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about early sea otters?

  ○It is not difficult to imagine what they looked like

  ○There were great numbers of them.

  ○They lived in the sea only.

  ○They did not leave many fossil remains.

  首先我们来对题目的出题范围进行定位,题干的blowhole可以作为定位词汇,定位到原文的第四句话:“However, unlike the cases of sea otters and pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses, whose limbs are functional both on land and at sea), it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like.”在这句话里交代了“unlike the casess of sea otters”,即与sea otters不一样的是,whales的陈述是:it is not easy to envision what the first whales looked like.即,不容易看出第一头鲸长什么样子。而sea ottter是和鲸鱼相反,所以选择A选项,即不难看出第一头sea otter长什么样子。所以实际上,这种题目虽然叫做推理题,但是并不需要同学们在做题的时候推的过远,基本考察的还是对原文信息概括和总结的能力。

  托福阅读题型之推理题的解题方法你了解了吗?我相信这次举例说明多多少少都能够帮助到你。最后希望大家能够好好的复习托福阅读,做好新托福考试当中的第一部分。
