新托福考试阅读听课笔记：推理题备考分析

笔者对于国内外考试研究多年，除了著有相关书籍外，还亲自教授。关于托福考试，曾与人合著《TOEFL阅读高分对策》，成为坊间流行的参考书。蛰居剑桥期间，利用ETS出版的新托福资料，加上多家出版机构的新托福资料，对新托福进行了深入研究，并将研究成果证之于实践，辅导新托福考生，效果良好。为了惠及更多的考生，今将研究成果公之于

众。首先推出的是阅读，笔者将结合新托福样题(ETS官方网站上有)，对新托福的几种题型进行分析，给出正确的做题方法。这次分析的题型是推理题。

一、推理题的标志

推理题的题干中一般含有infer, imply, most likely, least likely, probably等词，分为有共性的推理题和无共性的推理题两大类。

二、推理题的做法

对于无共性的推理题，也就是题干中无线索的，一般使用排除法，即根据各个选项的关键词回原文定位，通过排除法得出正确答案。

对于有共性的推理题，也就是题干中有线索的，可以先圈定题干中的关键词，根据关键词回原文定位，然后进行推理。推理题主要有下列思路：

1.一般对比推理

ETS设计推理题的手段不多，根据两个事物的对比特征出题是其中之一。问其中一个事物的特征时，只要将与之形成对比的另一个事物的特征否定掉就可以了。例如：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 fluke and blowhole 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.

2. 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.

根据关键词sea otters定位第四句：However, unlike the cases of sea otters and pinnipeds…，由原文的unlike可知sea otters和pinnipeds两种动物与whales形成对比，而且很难想象原始的whales的样子；根据“一般对比推理”思路，可以推出“原始的sea otters的样子不难想象”。第一个选项表达了此意，为正确答案。

2.时间对比推理

这种思路常被考到。在这种推理中，一般有两个形成对比的时间段，它们所具有的特征一般相反。当题干问一个时间段的特征时，只要将与之相反的时间段的特征否定掉就可以了。

例一：

Basic to any understanding of Canada in the 20 years after the Second World War is the country’s impressive population growth….

…It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution.

…

It can be inferred from the passage that before the Industrial Revolution

(A)families were larger.

(B)population statistics were unreliable.

(C)the population grew steadily.

(D)economic conditions were bad.

工业革命之后与工业革命之前两个时间形成对比。既然工业革命之后西方世界的家庭变小了，那么工业革命之前的家庭一定比较大。因此(A)为正确答案。

例二：

Accustomed though we are to speaking of the films made before 1927 as “silent”, the film has never been, in the full sense of the word, silent. From the very beginning, music was regarded as an indispensable accompaniment; when the Lumiere films were shown at the first public film exhibition in the United States in February 1896, they were accompanied by piano improvisations on popular tunes. At first, the music played bore no special relationship to the films; an accompaniment of any kind was sufficient. Within a very short time, however, the incongruity of playing lively music to a solemn film became apparent, and film pianists began to take some care in matching their pieces to the mood of the film.

What can be inferred from the passage about the majority of films made after 1927?

(A) They were truly “silent.”

(B) They were accompanied by symphonic orchestras.

(C) They incorporated the sound of the actors’ voices.

(D) They corresponded to specific musical compositions.

1927年前后形成对比。既然1927年以前的电影只有音乐而没有配音，那么1927年之后的电影一定有。所以(C)为正确答案。

例三：

“…The nineteenth century brought with it a burst of new discoveries and inventions that revolutionized the candle industry and made lighting available to all. In the early-to-mid-nineteenth century, a process was developed to refine tallow (fat from animals )with alkali and sulfuric acid. The result was a product called stearin. Stearin is harder and burns longer than unrefined tallow. This breakthrough meant that it was possible to make tallow candles that would not produce the usual smoke and rancid odor. Stearins were also derived from palm oils, so vegetable waxes as well as animal fats could be used to make candles …”

Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about candles before the nineteenth century?

?They did not smoke when they were burned.

?They produced a pleasant odor as they burned.

?They were not available to all.

?They contained sulfuric acid.

问题：关于19世纪以前的蜡烛，从第一段可以推出下列哪一点？

这道题的题干中有“19世纪以前”这一时间，由此可见它属于“时间对比推理”思路。原文首句指出：“…19世纪带来了大量新发现和发明，使蜡烛业发生了革命性的变化，所有人都能用蜡烛照明。”根据“时间对比推理”思路，由于19世纪以前的情况与19世纪形成对比，而19世纪所有人能用蜡烛照明，那么在19世纪之前，并非所有人都能用上蜡烛。第三个选项“They were not available to all”表达了这一意思，为正确答案。

2.集合概念推理

集合概念推理也可以称之为百分比推断，它指的是在一个集合中，包含两个相对的方面，共同构成一个大的集合。一方所占的比例减少意味着另一方所占比例的增加；反之，一方所占的比例增加意味着另一方所占比例的减少。根据这一思路，可以由集合中一方的数量变化推断另一方的消减。

例一：

A folk culture is small, isolated, cohesive, conservative, nearly self-sufficient group that is homogeneous in custom and race, with a strong family or clan structure and highly developed rituals. …Unaltered folk cultures no longer exist in industrialized countries such as the United States and Canada….

By contrast, a popular culture is a large heterogeneous group, often highly individualistic and constantly changing.

22.What does the author imply about the United States and Canada?

(A) They value folk cultures.

(B) They have no social classes.

(C) They have popular cultures.

(D) They do not value individualism.

原文谈到folk culture 和popular culture两种文化，它们之间形成对比。既然美国和加拿大不再存在folk culture，那么它们就有popular culture。因此(C)为正确答案。

例二：

Both the number and the percentage of people in the United States involved in nonagricultural pursuits expanded rapidly during the half century following the civil war, with some of the most dramatic increases occurring in the domains of transportation, manufacturing, and trade and distribution.

What can be inferred from the passage about the agricultural sector of the economy after the Civil War?

(A) New technological developments had little effect on farmers.

(B) The percentage of the total population working in agriculture declined.

(C) Many farms destroyed in the war were rebuilt after the war.

(D) Farmers achieved new prosperity because of better rural transportation.

文中指出：非农业人口的数量和比例都增加了。由此可知农业人口的数量和比例下降了。所以(B)为正确答案。

解读新托福阅读中推理题

解读新托福阅读中推理题 解读新托福阅读中推理题。今天，天道小编要和同学们介绍的是新托福阅读中推理题解决策略。下面，和天道小编一起来看看吧： 断题就是所需要的信息都包含在文章中，但是没有直接加以说明，需要考生从已知中推出。推理题的题干中常出现infer, imply , most likely (least likely) 或probably 等词语。根据OG，在IBT 阅读的3篇文章中，每篇会有0-2道这类问题，一次考试总共有3-4道推断题。 一、推理题的两大分类：有共性的推理题和无共性的推理题。 这里所谓的有共性推理题就是说题干中有和原文内容相同的关键词(也叫线索)。根据关键词回原文定位，然后进行推理。一般来说，大多数的推理题都属于这类题目。对于无共性的推理题，也就是题干中无线索，一般使用排除法，即根据各个选项的关键词回原文定位，通过排除法得出正确答案。返回原文找信息点，采用排除法是解决这两类题型解决的共同策略。 二、推理题的三个具体的解题思路： 1、一般对比推理：根据两个事情的对比特征，问其中一个事物的特征，只要将与之形成对比的另外一个事情的特征否定掉就可以。 2、时间对比推理：在这种推理中，一般有两个形成对比的时间段，它们所具有的特征一般相反。当题干问一个时间段的特征时，只要将与之相反的时间段的特征否定掉就可以了。 3、集合概念推理：一个大的集合的两个方面形成对比，两者之间存在着互补性关系，也就是一个的增加意味着另一个的减少。反之，相同。这个比较抽象，我们来看一个例子：例如：Both the number and the percentage of people in the United States involved in nonagricultural pursuits expanded rapidly during the half century following the civil war, with some of the most dramatic increases occurring in the domains of transportation, manufacturing, and trade and distribution.来源：考试大 What can be inferred from the passage about the agricultural sector of the economy after the Civil War?

四种思维解决托福阅读推理题

四种思维解决托福阅读推理题 托福阅读推理题是指重要信息隐藏在文章中，不会直接表露出来，需要考生自己从表面内容中推理出。通常看到infer、indicate、imply、suggest这类关键词，就能够判定题目类型是推断题。这类托福阅读题目并不像词汇题或者事实信息题，只需要对文章“肤浅的”理解就能快速解题，有点儿像文章总结题，需要费一番工夫，用一些耐心对文章深层了解才能解题。所以很多学生会觉得题目“难”。其实掌握了方法，稍微有些耐心就能提高这类题目的答对率，题目也就不像想象中的难了。下面文都国际小编就为大家实例讲解四种思维解决托福阅读推理题。 托福阅读推理题做题思维：对比逆推思维 往往可以逆推的题目，定位句有着明显的隐含反意，找到合适的答案就可以直接选。 Paragraph 2: Speculation on the origin of these Pacific islanders began as soon as outsiders encountered them, in the absence of solid linguistic, archaeological, and biological data, many fanciful and mutually exclusive theories were devised. Pacific islanders are variously thought to have come from North America, South America, Egypt, Israel, and India, as well as Southeast Asia. Many older theories implicitly deprecated the navigational abilities and overall cultural creativity of the Pacific islanders. For example, British anthropologists G. Elliot Smith and

托福阅读推理题中那些“逆向推理”

托福阅读推理题每篇0-2道，考查学生理解和感知文章内容关系的能力，需要学生根据句子之间的逻辑性进行更深层次的推断。有时候，我们可以利用“正向推理”：找出与文章描述特质一致的选项。也有一些题，文章给我们的提示其实正是题干概念相反范畴的特质，这需要我们以此出发，逆推出题干范畴的特质，再得出答案。 那么，托福阅读推理题中会有哪些情况涉及“逆向推理”呢? 第一种情况：新的时间点引发的逆向推理 例题一：来自-Petroleum Resources-第6题 Paragraph 3: Oil pools are valuable underground accumulations of oil, and oil fields are regions underlain by one or more oil pools. When an oil pool or field has been discovered, wells are drilled into the ground. Permanent towers, called derricks, used to be built to handle the long sections of drilling pipe. Now portable drilling machines are set up and are then dismantled and removed. When the well reaches a pool, oil usually rises up the well because of its density difference with water beneath it or because of the pressure of expanding gas trapped above it. Although this rise of oil is almost always carefully controlled today, spouts of oil, or gushers, were common in the past. Gas pressure gradually dies out, and oil is pumped from the well. Water or steam may be pumped down adjacent wells to help push the oil out. At a refinery, the crude oil from underground is separated into natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, and various oils. Petrochemicals such as dyes, fertilizer, and plastic are also manufactured from the petroleum. 6.Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 3 about gushers? ○They make bringing the oil to the surface easier. ○They signal the pre sence of huge oil reserves. ○They waste more oil than they collect. ○They are unlikely to occur nowadays. 题目解析： 选D. 在第三段中的第六句uAlthough this rise of oil is almost always carefully controlled today, spouts of oil, or gushers, were common in the

十大技巧锦囊? 之一 小单词，大线索 Factual information【事实信息题】 “真相，永远只有一个！”20分钟一篇托福阅读，平均到800字篇幅的文章中去，再排除那些判断全文的主旨题，这是火眼晶晶的节奏啊。 所以事实信息题不是考你细工出慢活的时候，而是靠你抓Key words paraphrasing and location（关键词替换定位）。 如何最有效的锁定答案，这里小站针对事实信息题给出的第一条锦囊——小单词，大线索。 多年来，被应试题海战术训练的极其有素的考生们，早就学会了巧妙抓关键词了，但往往是我认识这个单词，但我还是选错了。就像你参加一个世界咖啡评选比赛，你觉得认为是白咖啡或巴西咖啡吧，但你未必知道土耳其咖啡才是咖啡之王。分析事实信息题的特点是：范围小，正确率极高。 题型表现最多形式是：因果关系和表比较级关系的长难句。 表因果关系的词： Cause：frontality/since/in that/on account of Effect：so that/therefore/as a result/consequently 表比较级的词： unlike…from /prior to/ more than 所以，在获取key words之后，我们要做的才是重点。你有看过柯南在发现一丝线索后就停止推理吗？不，所谓的大线索，就是将关键词放回原句，让案件重现，理顺关键句的因果关系，让正确选项浮出水面。 纸上谈兵终不靠谱，绝知此事要做真题！ 小伙伴们快来小站托福板块，阅读区实践吧。

托福阅读推断题

1, How did this tremendous development take place, and why did it happen in the Teotihuacán Valley? Among the main factors are Teotihuacán’s geographic location on a natural trade route to the south and east of the Valley of Mexico, the obsidian resources in the Teotihuacán Valley itself, and the valley’s potential for extensive irrigation灌溉冲洗. The exact role of other factors is much more difficult to pinpoint―for instance, Teotihuacán’s religious significance as a shrine圣地, the historical situation in and around the Valley of Mexico toward the end of the first millennium B.C., the ingenuit y and foresightedness of Teotihuacán’s elite, and, finally, the impact of natural disasters, such as the volcanic eruptions 火山喷发of the late first millennium B.C.如此惊人的发展是如何产生的，它为什么发生在Teotihuacán山谷？主要因素有：Teotihuacán地理位置处于到墨西哥谷东南部的天然商路上；Teotihuacán谷本身的黑曜石资源；山谷的大量灌溉的潜力。要想说清楚其他因素所扮演的角色就难的多了——比如，Teotihuacán作为圣地的宗教意义；墨西哥谷及周边直到公元前第一个千年的历史情况；Teotihuacán精英阶层的3远见；最后还有自然灾害的影响，诸如公元前一千年的火山喷发。 Which of the following can be inferred from paragraphs 2 and 3 about the Volcanic eruptions of the late first millennium B.C.?以volcanic eruptions of the late firsr millennium B.C. ○They were more frequent than historians once thought. ○They may have done more damage to Teotihuacán than to neighboring centers. ○They may have played a major role in the rise of Teotihuacán. ○They incr eased the need for extensive irrigation in the Teotihuacán Valley 做关键词定位至第二段最后一句，这个是诸多factor当中的一个，而这些factor 都是促进T城发展的，所以答案是C。也可以排除法，A无相关信息；第三段第三句说火山对T影响很大，没跟其他的比较，B错；第二段第二句说到了irrigation，但与问题无关，错 This last factor is at least circumstantially implicated in T eotihuacán’s rise. Prior to 200 B.C., a number of relatively small centers coexisted in and near the Valley of Mexico. Around this time, the largest of these centers, Cuicuilco, was seriously affected by a volcanic eruption, with much of its agricultural land covered by lava. With Cuicuilco eliminated as a potential rival, any one of a number of relatively modest towns might have emerged as a leading economic and political power in Central Mexico. The archaeological evidence clearly indicates, though, that Teotiluacan was the center that did arise as the predominant force in the area by the first century A.D. 最后一个因素至少从环境上与Teotihuacán古城的崛起有牵连。在公元前200年之前，有很多相对的小的中心共存于墨西哥谷及附近。大约在此时，这些中心中的最大者，Cuicuilco，受到了一次火山喷发的严重影响，它的大部分耕地被火山熔岩所覆盖。伴随着Cuicuilco作为一个潜在对手的消失，任何一个相对较小的城镇都有可能在中央墨西哥形成领导性的经济政治力量。尽管考古学证据清晰地表明Teotiluacan确实在公元1世纪成长为这一地区的主要力量。 【TPO-8 (1) 6# 7#】 What can be inferred from paragraph 3 about Cuicuilco prior to 200 B.C.? ○It was a fairly small city until that date. ○It was located outside the Valley of Mexic o. ○It emerged rapidly as an economical and political center.

托福阅读推理题如何提升正确率

托福阅读推理题如何提升正确率 托福阅读中推理题型比较需要考生开动脑筋。比起那些只要成功定位就能找到解题线索的题目，推理题对考生的逻辑思维分析能力有更高要求。今天给大家带来了托福阅读推理题如何提升正确率,希望能够帮助到大家，一起来学习吧。 托福阅读推理题如何提升正确率 托福阅读推理题解题思路分析 从题型构成上来看，托福阅读10大题型中的推理题其实很像是细节题，似乎都是需要考生返回原文来寻找具体信息并加以解题的。而这两种题型的不同之处在于细节题能够在原文中找到对应选项的细节，最多进行一些简单的表述形式变化，但含义却保持一致，可以说相对简单。 而推理题则需要大家在找到原文的基础上再做进一步的逻辑推理分析，正确选项代表的含义要靠大家自己思索出来，无法在原文中直接找到对应内容。换句话说，大家需要根据文中的相关依据再往前做简单推理才能得出答案。大家不要小看这一步推理的过程，很多同学偏偏就是不知道该怎么去进一步思考推理。 做好推理题需要类比逻辑思维

既然提到了逻辑思维分析推理，接下来就来为大家介绍一下托福推理题中比较常用的类比逻辑思维方式。这种思维模式很简单，也就是*中提到两个事物，互为比较对象，而这两个事物具有一些相同的特点特征，因此可以根据A事物具有的特征来推理出B事物也具备相同的特征。 举个简单的例子，像小刘一样，小王也喜欢养猫。那么从这句话里，我们就可以通过类比思维来推断出，小刘喜欢养猫。大家是不是觉得这也太容易了，不要小看这种推理思维，下面给大家两道来自托福官方真题中的阅读逻辑题做参考分析。 推理题类比思维解题技巧实例讲解 实例1： When it comes to physiology, the leatherback turtle is, in some ways, more like a reptilian whale than a turtle. It swims farther into the cold of the northern and southern oceans than any other sea turtle, and it deals with the chilly waters in a way unique among reptiles. What can be inferred about whales from this paragraph? A . They are considered by some to be reptiles. B. Their bodies are built in a way that helps them manage extremely cold temperatures.

托福阅读 推断题

推断题是托福阅读十大题型之一。推断题最关键的本质就是作者强烈暗示，但是绝不明说。环球托福针对托福阅读十大题型，为大家搜集整理了以下文章，今天的主题是托福阅读十大题型推论题，每一篇托福阅读中有0-2题，要抓住技巧，所以要快速做题。环球托福会陆续整理托福阅读十大题型的其他题目的把握和分析文章，敬请期待吧。 推断题Inference questions ( 0 to 2 questions per set ) 推断题最关键的本质就是作者强烈暗示，但是绝不明说。按理说美国人应该比较喜欢直来直去，但是人家也会偶尔在考试的时候用用犹抱琵琶半遮面，出个推断题来考考你。在推断题中最常考的就是否定关系和比较关系的推断。比如说“不像海推断题Inference questions ( 0 to 2 questions per set ) 推断题最关键的本质就是作者强烈暗示，但是绝不明说。按理说美国人应该比较喜欢直来直去，但是人家也会偶尔在考试的时候用用犹抱琵琶半遮面，出个推断题来考考你。在推断题中最常考的就是否定关系和比较关系的推断。比如说“不像海獭，想象一下早期的鲸鱼长什么样子很不容易”，就是告诉你，想象一下早期的海獭长什么样子其实比较容易。或者说“在1815年后，工匠们制作工艺品追求速度胜过看重质量”，关键就是要暗示你在1815年前，工匠们更加看重工艺品的质量。 因此推断题的解题难度要略高于细节题，因为考生不仅要理解原文的意思，还要据此来做一步逻辑上的推断，这就从纯粹考查客观的题目上升到了考查作者主观方面的高度，从哲学上来讲，可是好大的一步呢!但是关键是这一步推断又不能走得太远，一步足矣，推两步就错了，因此推断的度很不好把握。我们中国的同学，逻辑思维能力好的人，往往思维跳得太快，自己推理推了不止一步，选错了会觉得很委屈。这也是我们同学不太喜欢的一种题型。 解法：提取题干中的关键词回文定位所有出现关键词的句子，然后综合各句提取结论性的信息。该类信息通常不会被原文直接以字面意思表达出来，通常是言外之意。 正确选项特征：含蓄，抽象，概括。 错误选项的特征：与细节题的错误选项特征基本相同。一般对于推论题来说，更保险的方法是用排除法做题。如果能排除3个错误选项，即使正确选项找不到定位点，不知道其"编码(encode)"的方式，也可以把题目做出来。但是使用排除法前提是必须阅读理解到足够多的信息，信息量能支持你用排除法做题。这就要求阅读能力相对来说高些。如果你在每一句话阅读上都花费大量的时间，这种方法对你来说只能成为时间上的累赘。这就是为什么我在前面强调练习一遍阅读理解难句的重要性。 Tips： 这类题目的题干中会出现infer/ imply/ reflect 等词。做这一类题目可直接排出对原文直接描述的选项，答案是建立在对原文直接表述基础上的理论推断。 做此类题型，一般需要注意几类关键词： a. 表示数量的副词：many, some, much of, several, a few, most… b. 情态动词：can, may, could… c. 表过去状态的词：used to be, at once, were… d. 表示不唯一的词：not only, exclusively… 解题技巧： a. 一般推理：根据两个事物之间存在的不同特征进行推断，由此及彼。 b. 时间对比推理：不同时期事物一般具有相反的特征。 c. 集合概念推理：一个大的集合由存在互补关系的两方面组成，此消彼长。 以上就是本次环球托福对于托福阅读十大题型推论题的整理，希望大家了解了推论题的正确

新托福阅读八大题型完整解析

新托福阅读八大题型完整解析 与老托福相比较，IBT阅读和其他部分一样有很大的变化。 IBT阅读的主要变化有五点： 1. 题目的数量减少：从之前老托50道题目减少到目前39道； 2. 文章的篇数减少：从之前的5篇减少到目前的3篇； 3. 文章内容的长度增加：内容字数从之前的350字左右增加到目前650-700字/篇； 4. 题目的分数参差不齐：各个类型题目的分数根据其难易程度而定； 5. 出现了三类新题型：句子插入题，句意解释题目和表格题是新出现的题目类。 解决IBT阅读中的插入句子题的五大步骤 插入句子题是IBT阅读中的新题性。这类题目是给出一句话让我们来判断这句话应加入一个段落中四个方块的哪个部分，用鼠标双击所选的黑色方块即可。做这类题目的关键首先是理解该句子，寻找其中的衔接词，分析这个句子的特点和其在文中的作用，然后把这个句子带入原文中检验其是否合适。 掌握衔接词是解答插入句子题的关键 掌握衔接词对解答这类问题非常重要，因为它是理解上下文和这个句子的逻辑关系的核心。衔接词语主要包括代词(指示代词，例如this, these their, it, such, another ，这些通常是上文提到过的，所以可以采用就近原则来做。)；关键同义词，重复出现的形容词，副词和名词；表示因果，转折等关系的过渡词语：如，therefore, so, however, as a result, consequently, on the contrary, however 等；递进扩展词：如，furthermore, also, as well, too, in addition, moreover, besides, even, additionally等；结构配对词：如，on t he one hand…. on the other hand，some…others，同时还要注意一些表示顺序的词，如 first ,second ,third等。 我们来具体来一个例子： 1. But there is also another special kind of conversational flow among Southern women that contributed to their writing. 2. Some of their talk took the form of tales and vignettes told for their own sake. 3. Sometimes humorous, sometimes sad; all were as bright as the figures in the fine needlepoint. 4。 Look at the four positions that indicate where the following sentences can be added to the …paragraph of th e passage。 These tales included grotesque, comic, and poetic descriptions, character sketches, narratives, gusts of feeling, delicate ironies, and astute observations。 Click on a position to add the sentence to the passage。 A: position 1 B: Position 2 C: Position 3 D: Position 4 具体的解题步骤： 1. 理解要插入的句子：These tales included grotesque, comic, and poetic descriptions, character sketches, and narratives, gusts of feeling, delicate ironies, and astute observations. 我们看这个句子是主、谓、宾结构，其中宾语为一些列的并列名词和短语。 2. 寻找衔接词：这个句子的衔接词为：These tales 3. 分析这个句子和上下文的关系：位置1 不可能，因为它后面的句子是一个主题型句子，即，提出论点，而我们要插入的句子为一个小点，属于论据。然后看位置2，这里出现了和我们要加入句子一样的信息点Some of their talk took the form of tales and vignettes told for their own sake。显然句子放在位置2是不行的；位置3后面的句子是对其前面句子for their own sake的进一步解释。所以最后只能是位置4了。 4. 把这个句带入各个位置。 5. 检查每个位置，位置4是最恰当的。 总之，把握这五大步骤是我们解决插入句子题的一个便利小窍门，具体的应用方法因人而议。理解需
