雅思阅读答案规律

1．True

第一种情况：题目是原文的同义表达

通常用同义词或同义结构

例 1

原文：Few are more than five years old。

译文：很少有超过五年的

题目：Most are less than five years old。

译文：大多数都小于五年

解释：题目与原文是同义结构，所以答案应为True

A类考试每次考1-2组，共5-10题左右。

True第一种情况：题目是原文的同义表达。

通常用同义词或同义结构。

第二种情况：题目是根据原文中的几句话做出推断或归纳。不推断不行，但有时有些同学会走入另一个极端，即自行推理或过度推理。

Fause第一种情况：题目与原文直接相反。通常用反义词、not加同义词及反义结构。

第二种情况：原文是多个条件并列，题目是其中一个条件（出现must或only）原文是两个或多个情形（通常是两种情形）都可以，常有both…and、and、or 及also等词。题目是“必须”或“只有”其中一个情况，常有must及only等词。

第三种情况：原文为人们对与于某样事物的理论或感觉，题目则强调是客观事实或已被证明。原文强调是一种“理论”或“感觉”，常有、及等词。题目强调是一种“事实”，常有fact及prove等词。

第四种情况：原文和题目中使用了表示不同范围、频率、可能性的词。原文中常

用many（很多）、sometimes（有时）及unlikely（不太可能）等词。题目中常用

all（全部）、usually（通常）、always（总是）、及impossible（完全不可能）等词。。第五种情况原文中包含条件状语，题目中去掉条件成份。原文中包含条件状语，

如if、unless或if not也可能是用介词短语表示条件状语如in, with, but for或exept for。题目中去掉了这些表示条件状语的成份。这时，答案应为False。

Not Given第一种情况：题目中的某些内容在原文中没有提及。题目中的某些内

容在原文中找不到依据。

第二种情况：题目中涉及的范围小于原文涉及的范围，也就是更具体。原文涉及一个较大范围的范筹，而题目是一个具体概念。也就是说，题目中涉及的范围比原文要小。

第三种情况：原文是某人的目标、目的、想法、愿望、保证、发誓等，题目是事实。原文中常用aim（目的）、purpose（目的

第四种情况：题目中有比较级，原文中没有比较。

NOTECE1．一定要依据原文，不能凭皆自己的知识。原文是判断的唯一根据。

所以，无论你对文章内容或背景多么熟悉，或者你的知识多么丰富，都不能凭借自己的知识来确定答案。即使题目中说“地球是正方形的”。如果文章中没说，你只能答Not Given，不能答False。

2．可以依据原文做适当的推断，但不能做无根据的自行推断或过度推断。有些

题目需要根据原文做适当的推断，才能确定正确答案，但必须是根据原文来做推断，不能做毫无根据的推理。而且一般来讲，即使有推理，也只推一步，不要推

得很深。有些阅读水平好的同学，如果不掌握前面的规律和方法，做这种题型反

而错得更多，主要原因就是想得太多，或推理得太多和太深。

3．要注意题目要求答什么。同是是非题，有时题目要求考生答Ture/False/Not Given，有时要求答T/F/NG，有时又要求考生答Yes/No/Not Given，必须按照要

求去做，否则，本来判断正确，因为不符合要求而失分，很可惜。避免答错的一

个方法是：在平常练习中就按照题目的要求去答，而不是随心所欲。

4．题目中若出现must、only、all及always，答案一般不会是True。题目中出现

这些词很常见，95%的答案都不是True。笔者只遇到过一次题目中出现了must

而答案为True的情况。题目中出现上述这些词，答案False是还是Not Given，就不一定，需要根据上面讲的规律再做判断，一般答案是False的比例

更大一些。不看原文，下面几个题目的答案都是False。

i. Europeans learned all of what they knew of edible , wild plants from Aborigines.

ii. Before the dry plate process short exposures could only be achieved with cameras held in the hand.

5．答案选择有一定的规律。笔者通过实践得出如下的规律：

A．题目数目在5个或5个以上时，三种答案都要出现。题目数目在5个以下时，则不一定。

B．可以连续三题答案都一样，如都是Ture，但还没有连续四题答案都一样。

连续三题都一样的情况也不多见，笔者只遇到过两次，一次都是Ture，一次都是Not Given。

6.要相信自己的第一感觉，不要轻易改答案。在考试中，除非有特别强的理由，

否则不要轻易改答案，人的第一感觉往往是正确的。很多同学都将正确的答案改

错了。

7．要注意上述规律和方法的运用，不要钻牛角尖。这种题型本身有一定的缺陷，

即不严密。所以上述规律和方法若能理解就最好，如不能理解，就记住它们，考

试时，照着做就可以了，这些规律都经过实践的检验总结：

1 出现同义表达或推断归纳的为YES/TRUE.

2 出现Not Must / only Fact / prove Many / sometimes / unlikely / all / usually /

等always / impossible原文中有if / unless / if…not / in / with / but / for / except for 表示条件状语成分时答案应该为NO / FALSE

3 出现原文没有提及或者找不到依据的题目范围比原文所说的范围小，更具体的

内容时候原文是目标，想法，愿望，保证，发誓的时候，题目是事实的时候，出

现aim, purpose, promise, swear, vow.题目中有比较级，原文中没有比较级。答案

应该为NOT GIVEN

TRUE/YES

1、原意表达；

例1：According to British research, amere twelve per cent of vehicles tested produced over fifty per

cent of total pollution produced by the sample group.（剑3-Test4-Reading Passage1-Q7）

解析：这个题答案是Yes，因为原文中有一句：When Britain's Royal Automobile Club monitored the exhoust of 60,000 vehicles, it found that 12 per cent of them produced more than half the total

pollution.

题目是原文的原意表达。

例2：All Hewson's experiments used marbles of the same size.（剑2T1-Q39）

解析：对应原文在倒数第三段：How is he(child) to know that any other marble of similar size will do just as well? 可见所有的marble都是一样size的。故题目是文章的原意表达，答案是Ture。

例3：In the past, many cities did more trade within their own country than with overseas ports.（剑

2T2-Q36）

解析：对应原文：...domestic trade was greater at all periods than external trade.题目是原文的换词同意表达，故答案为YES。

2、根据原文概括或归纳而成的。

例1：The reserch findings report commercial rather than political trends.（剑2-Test4-Reading Passage1-Q1）

解析：根据原文，这个报告出自Mintel，一个market reserch organisation，再结合它的内容，主

要关注商业而非政治。所以答案应该是YES。

例2：A link between depression and the time of year has been established.（剑3T3-Q32）

解析：原文倒数第二段最后两句话，However, the belief that rain and murky weather make people more unhappy is borne out by a study in Belgium, which showed...可见，下雨天和阴天人们的心情不好，再根据全文其它部分的一些研究成果，譬如不同的天气影响人体激素的分泌，从而影响到人的心情，可见，depression和天气之间的联系已经建立起来了。故而答案为YES。————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

FALSE/NO

1、题目与原文直接相反；

例1：The department concentrates on collecting single unrelated objects of great value.（剑

3-Test3-ReadingPassage1-Q6）

解析：这个题答案是No，原文中有一句：The collecting emphasis has often been less on individual objects than on groups of morerial which allow the display of a broad range of a society's cultural expressions.

原文说的是收藏更加侧重于能够反映整个社会文化的物品，而不是个人物品。所以题目与原文的意思相反，所以答案是No。

例2：Most people in a port city are engaged in international trade and finance.（剑2T2-Q37）

解析：对应原文：estimates of the ratio of basic to service workers range from 1:4 to 1:8。由原文可知，basic workers指的是那些从事与外贸和港口事务有关的人，而service workers指的是那些为城市提供服务的人，两者的比例明显是后者要多于前者。所以题目与原文的意思直接相反，答案应该是NO。

例3：Redesigning cities would be a short-term solution.（剑2T3-Q26）

解析：对应原文在G段：One solution that has been put forward is the long-term solution of designing cities....可见，designing cities并不是一个short-term solution，而是long-term，题目与原文直接相反，故答案为FALSE。

2、原文是多个条件并列，题目是其中一个条件（出现must or only）；

例1：Children only accept opinions on rainforests that they encounter in their classrooms.（剑

4-Test1-ReadingPassage1-Q2）

解析：原文说儿童除了在课堂上接受对于热带雨林的知识外，还通过媒体接受。题目的Only太绝对了，所以答案应该是FALSE。

例2：The only way cobra venom kills is to paralyze an animal's nervours system.（真经）

解析：凡是在题目中遇到only,must,all这类过于绝对的词语，一定要小心了，据我的做题经验，

多半是要写FALSE或NO的，譬如这个题，原文第四段：Cobra wenom kells via neurotoxins, proteins that paralyze an animal's nervous system and diaphragm, abdominal muscles used to breathe. 可见，眼镜蛇除了利用毒素破坏猎物的神经系统之外，也破坏用于呼吸的横隔肌和腹肌。题目太绝对了，

所以答案应该是FALSE。

例3：For snake, the only role of wenom is to kill animals.（真经）

解析：对应原文第五段第一句：Meanwhile, wenoms are alse rich in hydrolithic enzymes, a complex mix of poly peptides, nucleases, peptidases, etc., which help digest the snakes's prey.可见，venom除了杀死猎物之外，还具有消化猎物的功能。所以答案应该是FALSE。

例4：The anti-venoms are safe for all the people.（真经）

解析：典型的过于绝对，爱因斯坦都不敢说他的相对论绝对真确，而雅思所选的文章大多是论证

严密的科技论文，不可能出现过于绝对的描述。所以，只要出现这些词语，一定要多加注意。原

文：The anti-venoms are very safe, however they are an animal protein derivative and a small percentage of people react dangerously to it。可见，并不是所有的人对于anti-venoms都是safe的，一小部分人是dangerous的。所以答案应该是FALSE。

3、原文为人们对某种事物的理论感觉，题目则强调是客观事实或已被证明；

（暂时没有找到对应的习题）

4、原文和题目中使用了表示不同范围、频率、可能性的词；

例1：Seretonin is an essential cause of human aggression.（剑3-Test3-ReadingPassage3-Q30）

解析：对应原文：High level of serotonin in certain areas of the nervous system make poeple more active and reactive and, possibly, more aggressive“

，题目与原文使用了不同可能性的词语，所以应

该是FALSE。

例2：The wires sometimes followed the railroad routes in US.（真经）

解析：对应原文在倒数第二段：The telegraph spread across the US more quickly than had the railroads, whose routes the wires often followed。原文使用表示频率的词语是often经常，而题目中使用的是sometimes有时，这两个词语表示不同的频率，所以答案是FALSE。

5、原文中包含条件状语（如if、unless），题目中去除条件成分。

例题：The ever faster expansion will invariably tear apart the Earth.（雅思阅读真经）

是有条件的，那就是解析：文中讲到“Ever fast expansion will rip apart galaxies and event the earth”

，所以题目去掉了条件，故答案为FALSE。

“if it continues”————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

NOT GIVEN

1、题目中的某些内容在原文中没有提及；

例题：Girls are more likely than boys to hold mistaken views about the rainforest' destruction.（剑4-Test1-ReadingPassage1-Q6）

解析：这一类型的题比较容易判断，原文比较了Girls和Boys在importance of rainforests上态度的区别，但是并没有关于rainforest' destructions的比较，所以答案是NOT GIVEN，这里要注意的就是，题目和原文的重叠部分，譬如此题，题目中提到了男孩和女孩的比较，原文中同样有涉及，但是，比较的内容不一样，所以这里容易出错一些。

2、题目中的范围小于原文的范围，也就是更具体(note：但是大于就是ture了)；

例题：It would be a good idea to specify the role definitions of soldiers more clearly.（剑3-Test2-ReadingPassage2-Q29）

解析：根据原文：It is often important that your make it clear what your particular role is at a given time.

可见，题目中的范围要小于原文，soldier明显具体一些，所以此题应该是NG。

3、原文是某人的主观思想（目标、目的、想法、愿望、保证、发誓），题目是事实；

（暂时没有找到对应的习题）

4、题目有比较级，原文没有比较。

例题：Less than 3,000 people would die within one week in 1952-1953 if it were not for the coal smoke.（真经）

，原文more than的对象解析：原文“Within a week more than 3,000 deaths thant usual had accurred”

，原文中并没有比较因为浓烟死亡和正

的对象是“3,000”

是“deaths of usual”

，而题目中“less than”

常情况下的死亡人数，所以答案应该是NOT GIVEN。

2014年雅思阅读模拟试题及答案解析（6）

1. A European spacecraft took off today to spearhead the search for another "Earth" among the stars. 2. The Corot space telescope blasted off aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan shortly after 2.20pm. 3. Corot， short for convection rotation and planetary transits， is the first instrument capable of finding small rocky planets beyond the solar system. Any such planet situated in the right orbit stands a good chance of having liquid water on its surface， and quite possibly life， although a leading scientist involved in the project said it was unlikely to find "any little green men". 4. Developed by the French space agency， CNES， and partnered by the European Space Agency (ESA)， Austria， Belgium， Germany， Brazil and Spain， Corot will monitor around 120，000 stars with its 27cm telescope from a polar orbit 514 miles above the Earth. Over two and a half years， it will focus on five to six different areas of the sky， measuring the brightness of about 10，000 stars every 512 seconds. 5. "At the present moment we are hoping to find out more about the nature of planets around stars which are potential habitats. We are looking at habitable planets， not inhabited planets. We are not going to find any little green men，" Professor Ian Roxburgh， an ESA scientist who has been involved with Corot since its inception， told the BBC Radio 4 Today programme. 6. Prof Roxburgh said it was hoped Corot would find "rocky planets that could develop an atmosphere and， if they are the right distance from their parent star，they could have water". 7. To search for planets， the telescope will look for the dimming of starlight caused when an object passes in front of a star， known as a "transit". Although it will take more sophisticated space telescopes planned in the next 10 years to confirm the presence of an Earth-like planet with oxygen and liquid water， Corot will let scientists know where to point their lenses.

When Denis Hennequin took over as the European boss of McDonald’s in January 2004，the world’s biggest restaurant chain was showing signs of recovery in America and Australia，but sales in Europe were sluggish or declining.One exception was France，where Mr Hennequin had done a sterling job as head of the group’s French subsidiary to sell more Big Macs to his compatriots.His task was to replicate this success in all 41 of the European countries where anti- globalisers’favourite enemy operates. B. So far Mr Hennequin is doing https://www.sodocs.net/doc/8e13645871.html,st year European sales increased by 5.8%and the number of customers by 3.4%， the best annual results in nearly 15 years.Europe accounted for 36%of the group’s profits and for 28%of its sales.December was an especially good month as customers took to seasonal menu offerings in France and Britain，and to a promotion in Germany based on the game of Monopoly.

雅思英语阅读练习题及答案：第十二篇雅思英语阅读练习题及答案：第十二篇 ★Next Year Marks the EU's 50th Anniversary of the Treaty A. After a period of introversion and stunned self-disbelief, continental European governments will recover their enthusiasm for pan-European institution-building in 2007. Whether the European public will welcome a return to what voters in two countries had rejected so short a time before is another matter. B. There are several reasons for Europe’s recovering self-confidence. For years European economies had been lagging dismally behind America (to say nothing of Asia), but in 2006 the large continental economies had one of their best years for a decade, briefly outstripping America in terms of growth. Since politics often reacts to economic change with a lag, 2006’s improvement in economic growth will have its impact in 2007, though the recovery may be ebbing by then. C. The coming year also marks a particular point in a political cycle so regular that it almost seems to amount to a natural law. Every four or five years, European countries take a large stride towards further integration by signing a new treaty: the Maastricht treaty in 1992, the Treaty of Amsterdam in 1997, the Treaty of Nice in 2001. And in 2005 they were supposed to ratify a European constitution, laying the ground for

2015年雅思阅读模拟试题及答案解析三

Time to cool it 1 REFRIGERATORS are the epitome of clunky technology： solid， reliable and just a little bit dull. They have not changed much over the past century， but then they have not needed to. They are based on a robust and effective idea--draw heat from the thing you want to cool by evaporating a liquid next to it， and then dump that heat by pumping the vapour elsewhere and condensing it. This method of pumping heat from one place to another served mankind well when refrigerators' main jobs were preserving food and， as air conditioners， cooling buildings. Today's high-tech world， however， demands high-tech refrigeration. Heat pumps are no longer up to the job. The search is on for something to replace them. 2 One set of candidates are known as paraelectric materials. These act like batteries when they undergo a temperature change： attach electrodes to them and they generate a current. This effect is used in infra-red cameras. An array of tiny pieces of paraelectric material can sense the heat radiated by， for example， a person， and the pattern of the array's electrical outputs can then be used to construct an image. But until recently no one had bothered much with the inverse of this process. That inverse exists， however. Apply an appropriate current to a paraelectric material and it will cool down. 3 Someone who is looking at this inverse effect is Alex Mischenko， of Cambridge University. Using commercially available paraelectric film， he and his colleagues have generated temperature drops five times bigger than any previously recorded. That may be enough to change the phenomenon from a laboratory curiosity to something with commercial applications. 4 As to what those applications might be， Dr Mischenko is still a little hazy. He has， nevertheless， set up a company to pursue them. He foresees putting his discovery to use in more efficient domestic fridges and air conditioners. The real money， though， may be in cooling computers. 5 Gadgets containing microprocessors have been getting hotter for a long time. One consequence of Moore's Law， which describes the doubling of the number of transistors on a chip every 18 months， is that the amount of heat produced doubles as well. In fact， it more than doubles， because besides increasing in number，the components are getting faster. Heat is released every time a logical operation is performed inside a microprocessor， so the faster the processor is， the more heat it generates. Doubling the frequency quadruples the heat output. And the frequency has doubled a lot. The first Pentium chips sold by Dr Moore's company，Intel， in 1993， ran at 60m cycles a second. The Pentium 4--the last "single-core" desktop processor--clocked up 3.2 billion cycles a second. 6 Disposing of this heat is a big obstruction to further miniaturisation and higher speeds. The innards of a desktop computer commonly hit 80℃. At 85℃， they

Birthday traditions in different countries Birthdays are celebrated all over the world. Some traditions are fairly similar from country to country: candles, cakes and birthday wishes, birthday games and pinches for good luck. Other customs are quite different. Here are a few. Argentina–In Argentina, as in many Latin American countries, one of the most important birthday parties is a girl’s fifteenth. When girls turn 15, they have a huge party and dance the waltz first with their father, and then the boys at the party. China– The birthday child pays respect to the parents and receives a gift of money. Friends and relatives are invited to lunch, and noodles are served to wish the birthday child a long life. Denmark– A flag is flown outside a window to show that someone who lives in that house is having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child’s bed while they are sleeping so they will see them immediately when they wake up. The Netherlands– Special year birthdays such as 5, 10, 15, 20, 21 are called “crown” years and the birthday child receives an especially large gift. The family also decorates the birthday child’s chair with flowers or paper streamers, paper flowers and balloons. India – Usually Indian children wear white to school. However, on their birthday children wear coloured clothes to school and give out chocolates to everyone in the class. Their best friend helps them to do this. Japan– The birthday child wears new clothes to mark the occasion. Certain birthdays are more important than others and these are celebrated with a visit to the local shrine. These are the third and seventh birthdays for girls and the fifth for boys. Questions 1-5 Match the countries in the box with their descriptions. 1 A country where longevity is celebrated by a special dish ________ 2 A country where candies are distributed among peers ________ 3 A country where the birthday is made known to the community ________ 4 A country where the household is full of birthday ornaments ________ 5 A country where religious worship is sometimes involved ________

Next Year Marks the EU's 50th Anniversary of the Treaty A. After a period of introversion and stunned self-disbelief，continental European governments will recover their enthusiasm for pan-European institution-building in . Whether the European public will welcome a return to what voters in two countries had rejected so short a time before is another matter. B. There are several reasons for Europe’s recovering self-confidence. For years European economies had been lagging dismally behind America (to say nothing of Asia)， but in the large continental economies had one of their best years for a decade， briefly outstripping America in terms of growth.

The coming year also marks a particular point in a political cycle so regular that it almost seems to amount to a natural law. Every four or five years， European countries take a large stride towards further integration by signing a new treaty： the Maastricht treaty in 1992， the Treaty of Amsterdam in 1997， the Treaty of Nice in . And in they were supposed to ratify a European constitution， laying the ground for yet more integration—until the calm rhythm was rudely shattered by French and Dutch voters. But the political impetus to sign something every four or five years has only been interrupted，not immobilised， by this setback. D. In the European Union marks the 50th anniversary of another treaty—the Treaty of Rome， its founding charter. Government leaders have already agreed to celebrate it ceremoniously， restating their commitment to “ever closer union” and the basic ideals of European unity. By itself， and in normal circumstances， the EU’s 50th-birthday greeting to itself would be fairly meaningless， a routine expression of European good fellowship. But it does not take a Machiavelli to spot that once governments have signed the declaration (and it seems unlikely anyone would be so uncollegiate as to veto

雅思英语阅读练习题及答案：第一篇 内容摘要：The failure of a high-profile cholesterol drug has thrown a spotlight on the complicated machinery that regulates cholesterol levels. ★Why did a promising heart drug fail? Doomed drug highlights complications of meddling with cholesterol. 1. The failure of a high-profile cholesterol drug has thrown a spotlight on the complicated machinery that regulates cholesterol levels. But many researchers remain confident that drugs to boost levels of 'good' cholesterol are still one of the most promising means to combat spiralling heart disease. 2. Drug company Pfizer announced on 2 December that it was cancelling all clinical trials of torcetrapib, a drug designed to raise heart-protective high-density lipoproteins (HDLs). In a trial of 15000 patients, a safety board found that more people died or suffered cardiovascular problems after taking the drug plus a cholesterol-lowering statin than those in a control group who took the statin alone. 3. The news came as a kick in the teeth to many cardiologists because earlier tests in animals and people suggested it would lower rates of cardiovascular disease. "There have been no red flags to my knowledge," says John Chapman, a specialist in lipoproteins and atherosclerosis at the National Institute for Health and Medical Research (INSERM) in Paris who has also studied torcetrapib. "This cancellation came as a complete shock." 4. Torcetrapib is one of the most advanced of a new breed of drugs designed to raise levels of HDLs, which ferry cholesterol out of artery-clogging plaques to the liver for removal from the body. Specifically, torcetrapib blocks a protein called cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP), which normally transfers the cholesterol from high-density lipoproteins to low density, plaque-promoting ones. Statins, in contrast, mainly work by lowering the 'bad' low-density lipoproteins. Under pressure 5. Researchers are now trying to work out why and how the drug backfired, something that will not become clear until the clinical details are released by Pfizer. One hint lies in evidence from earlier trials that it slightly raises blood pressure in some patients. It was thought that this mild problem would be offset by the heart benefits of the drug. But it is possible that it actually proved fatal in some patients who already suffered high blood pressure. If blood pressure is the explanation, it would actually be good news for drug developers because it suggests that the problems are specific to this compound. Other prototype drugs that are being developed to block CETP work in a slightly different way and might not suffer the same downfall. 6. But it is also possible that the whole idea of blocking CETP is flawed, says Moti Kashyap, who directs atherosclerosis research at the VA Medical Center in Long Beach, California. When HDLs excrete cholesterol in the liver, they actually rely on LDLs for part of this process. So inhibiting CETP, which prevents the transfer of cholesterol from HDL to LDL, might actually cause an abnormal and irreversible
