雅思剑9之-----阅读解析

剑9被运用于各雅思培训机构已经一段时间了,苏州北雅教研团的老师在教学中对剑9做了深入解析,以下是阅读方面的一些内容与大家分享。

就阅读而言,《剑9》里面收录的真题大多是在2008和2009年中国大陆地区的考试中出现的,近两年出现的题目非常少,通过下面的表格,同学们可以了解下《剑9》A类阅读的文章内容和题型。

从上面的表格中,我们可以看出《剑9》中收录的阅读文章的背景还是以科普类的文章居多,这符合雅思考试的两个测试特点International(国际化)和None-professional(非专业化)。

此外,就题型类别上,我们通常说的雅思阅读5种重点题型:T/F/NG(判断题)、Matching (搭配题)、Multiple Choice (选择题)、Summary(摘要填空)和List of Headings(标题题)都有出现,而且T/F/NG(判断题)、Matching (搭配题)和Multiple Choice (选择题)3种题型的题量占了绝对优势,总和接近题目总量的70%。另外我们常说的3种次要题型:Short Answer Questions (简答题)、Sentence Completion (完成句子)和Flow-chart, Diagram and Table Completion(图表题)在《剑9》中,Short Answer Questions (简答题)的题量上升至17题,Sentence Completion (完成句子)也达到了15题,紧跟在前3种绝对优势的重点题型之后,值得广大“烤鸭”们注意。

《剑9》里面收录的真题大多是在2008和2009年中国大陆地区的考试中出现的,而不是最近两年的考题。结合2013年前两个月的考试,T/F/NG(判断题)和Matching (搭配题)依旧独领风骚,是雅思阅读的重点刀法,但在近两个月的考试中,几乎每次都出现了Summary(摘要填空)。不要认为《剑9》里Summary(摘要填空)只出现两次,共7题就是不重要的题型了,平时的备考也不用多练习了,那就可能成为雅思考官的“刀下游魂”了!

剑桥雅思8阅读解析

1 / 11 剑桥雅思8阅读解析 READING PASSAGE 2 You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 14-26, which are based on Reading Passage 2 below. The Nature of Genius There has always been an interest in geniuses and prodigies. The word 'genius', from the Latin gens (= family and the term 'genius', meaning 'begetter', comes from the early Roman cult of a divinity as the head of the family. In its earliest form, genius was concerned with the ability of the head of the family, the paterfamilias, to perpetuate himself. Gradually, genius came to represent a person's characteristics and thence an individual's highest attributes derived from his 'genius' or guiding spirit. Today, people still look to stars or genes, astrology or genetics, in the hope of finding the source of exceptional abilities or personal characteristics. The concept of genius and of gifts has become part of our folk culture, and attitudes are ambivalent towards them. We envy the gifted and mistrust them. In the mythology of giftedness, it is popularly believed that if people are talented in one area, they must be defective in another, that intellectuals are impractical, that prodigies burn too brightly too soon and burn out, that gifted people are eccentric, that they are physical weaklings, that there's a thin line between genius and madness, that genius runs in families, that the gifted are so clever they don't need special help,

剑桥雅思8-第三套试题-阅读部分-PASSAGE 1-阅读真题原文部分: READING PASSAGE 1 You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-13 which are based on Reading Passage 1 below. Striking Back at Lightning With Lasers Seldom is the weather more dramatic than when thunderstorms strike. Their electrical fury inflicts death or serious injury on around 500 people each year in the United States alone. As the clouds roll in, a leisurely round of golf can become a terrifying dice with death - out in the open, a lone golfer may be a lightning bolt's most inviting target. And there is damage to property too. Lightning damage costs American power companies more than $100 million a year. But researchers in the United States and Japan are planning to hit back. Already in laboratory trials they have tested strategies for neutralising the power of thunderstorms, and this winter they will brave real storms, equipped with an armoury of lasers that they will be pointing towards the heavens to discharge thunderclouds before lightning can strike. The idea of forcing storm clouds to discharge their lightning on command is not new. In the early 1960s, researchers tried firing rockets trailing wires into thunderclouds to set up an easy discharge path for the huge electric charges that these clouds generate. The technique survives to this day at a test site in Florida run by the University of Florida, with support from the Electrical Power Research Institute (EPRI), based in California. EPRI, which is funded by power companies, is looking at ways to protect the United States' power grid from lightning strikes. 'We can cause the lightning to strike where we want it to using rockets, ' says Ralph Bernstein, manager of lightning projects at EPRI. The rocket site is providing precise measurements of lightning voltages and allowing engineers to check how electrical equipment bears up. Bad behaviour But while rockets are fine for research, they cannot provide the protection from lightning strikes that everyone is looking for. The rockets cost around $1, 200 each, can only be fired at a limited frequency and their failure rate is about 40 per cent. And even when they do trigger lightning, things still do not always go according to plan. 'Lightning is not perfectly well behaved, ' says Bernstein. 'Occasionally, it will take a branch and go someplace it wasn't supposed to go. ' And anyway, who would want to fire streams of rockets in a populated area? 'What goes up must come down, ' points out Jean-Claude Diels of the University of New Mexico. Diels is leading a project, which is backed by EPRI, to try to use lasers to discharge lightning safely - and safety is a basic requirement since no one wants to put themselves or their expensive equipment at risk. With around $500, 000 invested so far, a promising system is just emerging from the laboratory. The idea began some 20 years ago, when high-powered lasers were revealing their ability to extract electrons out of atoms and create ions. If a laser could generate a line of ionisation in the air all the way up to a storm cloud, this conducting path could be used to guide lightning to Earth, before the electric field becomes strong enough to break down the air in an uncontrollable surge. To stop the laser itself being struck, it would not be pointed straight at the clouds. Instead it would be directed at a mirror, and from there into the sky. The mirror would be protected by placing lightning conductors close by. Ideally, the cloud-zapper (gun)would be cheap enough to be

雅思阅读选择题四种解题技巧

雅思阅读选择题四种解题技巧 雅思阅读选择题总会用各个选项来迷惑人,下面教育优选来为大家分享雅思阅读选择题的解题技巧 1. 如果一个选项合乎题意,还要看其它选项中是否有both…and、all of theabove 的字样。 我们举一个中文阅读的例子: 原文:如果你随便停车,要罚你款,还要把你的车拖走。 题目:如果你随便停车,将: A. 被罚款 B. 你的车被拖走 C. 没事儿 D. both被罚款and你的车被拖走答案:D 如果选项中有一个是all of the above,它是正确选项的可能性很大。Both…and是正确选项比all of the above小一些。总之,如果一个选项合乎题意,不要马上选。看一眼其余选项中是否有both…and,all of theabove的字样。 2. 注意题干中是否有not,except的字样。 题干中有这些词时,通常是将它们大写并使用黑体,特别醒目。如果不注意看,必然答错题。

如前面的关于帕金森症的中文阅读文章,可能出一道四选一的题目: 题目:下面的人得过帕金森症EXCEPT A. 邓小平 B. 里根 C. 拳王阿里 D. 陈景润答案:B 3. 干扰选项的特点 做选择题的过程就是与干扰选项做斗争的过程。清楚干扰选项的特点,就能做到百战百胜。干扰选项特征如下: A. 无 选项中所讲的内容在原文中根本不存在,或找不到语言依据。要注意,答题的唯一依据是原文,不能凭借自己的知识或主观想象。 B. 反 与原文相矛盾的选项。这时要注意题干或原文中是否有NOT、EXECPT等词,也要注意反义词。 C. 满 含有“绝对意义”的词汇如must、always、all、will的选项,一般为错误选项。选项中含有“相对意义”的词汇如can、may、sometimes、some、not always,一般为正确答案。也就是说,越是模棱两可、含含糊糊,越可能是正确答案,因为它适用的范围更广。这条规律的适用性很强,实践证明它的准确率在90%以上。 D. 偏 似是而非,与原句部分相似的选项。这是不太容易排除的。

雅思真题解析之雅思配对题讲解

Matching题讲解 题型: 1.人名理论配对 2.分类题 3.长句子配对 4.段落细节配对 难点: 属于细节题,比较费时间 题目与题干不易读懂 题干与题目无法关联起来 配对题做题基本方法: 1先做文章其他类型题目: 两种类型配对一起出现概率较小(剑桥雅思真题中C4T2P3 C5T3P1C6T1P1 C8T1P1出现过),若出现则难度较大,可先做其他文章。 2 先做出比较明显的选项。 如有比较明显的信号词 3.最后细度剩下的选项 划出关键词,根据关键词扫读全文。注意关键词的近义词转化。 题型分析: 1人名理论配对 特点:容易定位,乱序出现 注意事项:留意NB 方法:先读题干画出句子关键词,按文章顺序,找人名,找理论信号词,注意理论由几句话组成 真题分布: (C4T2P1<5-8> C4T2P4<36-40> C5T4P2<14-17> C6T1P1<8-11> C6T3P2<25-27> C7T3P3<34-39> C7T4P3<35-40>) 2 Classification: 特点:不容易定位,

方法: 划出关键词 找到项目1对应原文段落,与题干配对 找到项目2对应原文段落,再对应题干 最后选答案 真题分布: (C5T3P1<5-10> C6T3P3<33-37> C7TP1<5-10> C8T4P3<31-36>)(C4T4P3<32-35> C6T2P1<11-13> C8T1P1<5-8> C8T2P2<23-26>) 重点例题分析 C8T4P3 四个选项是4种不同收集蚂蚁的方法,在通读全文以后,会比较清楚,而且ABCD是按照文章顺序来的,可分别定位到第二段到第四段 A hand collecting 第二段 B using bait 第三段 C sampling ground litter 第四段 D using a pitfall trap 第五段 这种题型有两种做法 对于能力较好的学生可先先从文章入手,读完一个段落后再筛选答案 以选项A为例 先读第A所在的第二段。发现31题关键词group of ants(大量的)的同义转换为20-25individuals collected。因此31题选项为A 然后继续往下读,发现35题的separate containers 对应的文章中的individual insects are placed in plastic or glass tubes 因此35题答案也为A 按照这样以此往下所有的答案就可选出。 但这种方法对学生词汇,理解能力和瞬时记忆要求比较高。 另一种从题目入手 读选项化出题目中的关键词 31take specimens from groups of ants

剑桥雅思8阅读Test1Passage3原文翻译

剑桥雅思8阅读Test1Passage3原文翻译-心灵感应 解析查看,请点击:剑桥雅思8阅读Test1Passage1原文+答案解析 人类可否只通过思想进行沟通交流? 一百多年来,关于心灵感应的话题在科学界产生很大意见分歧,时至今日,它依然在学界精英中引起激烈辩论。 自上个世纪70年代以来,在世界各大高校和科研院所,超心理学者们冒着被同行嘲笑和怀疑的风险,将关于心灵感应的各种不同说法进行严格的科学实验,其结果及其启示即使在研究者本身中,也引发了很大争议。 有些科学家认为,实验结果提供了强有力证据,可以证明心灵感应是真实存在的。另一些超心理学家则相信,该研究虽试图用科学证据证明心灵感应存在,却并未取得成功,相关研究也都处在失败的边缘。不过无论是怀疑者还是倡导者都同意一点,即迄今最有力的证据来自于“ganzfeld”实验。该实验名称来自德语,意思是“全域”。通过冥想心灵感应实验者的报告,超心理学家怀疑,可能因为人们之间传递的“信号”过于模糊,以至于很容易被正常的脑波活动所覆盖。如果这样的话,当人们身处一个伴有灯光和音响的温暖轻松的环境,经历冥想般的宁静,会更容易感知此类信号。 该实验几乎满足了所有的条件。参加者待在密封的房间里,坐着柔软的躺椅,听着轻松的音乐,眼睛被特殊的过滤器覆盖,只看见柔和的粉色光。早期的实验主要涉及选图。先从一个大型图库中任意选出四张图片,再让实验者指认其中一张。具体操作步骤是,作为“发送人”的实验者努力将一张图通过思维传给密封房间内的“接收人”。当传送结束后,“接收人”需从四张图中选出哪一张才是刚刚被传送的图。如果是随便猜测,可达到25%的命中率。然而,如果心灵感应真的存在,命中率就应该更高。1982年,心灵感应研究的先行者之一,美国超心理学家查尔斯·荷诺顿(Charles Honorton)分析了这些早期实验的结果。结果证明典型的命中率要高于30%。虽然比例高不了多少,但统计测试表明,结果已不完全是偶发几率。 “ganzfeld”实验似乎可以证明心灵感应是真的存在。但是在这个论据本身有个不足之处,在很多传统科学领域中也常常被忽视:不能因为排除了偶然几率的存在,就能证明心灵感应就是真实存在的。很多其他方法也可以得出正向的结果:既有图片线索偶然传递给接受者的感官泄露,也有彻底的欺骗。作为回应,研究人员回顾了截至1985年的全部ganzfeld 研究,结果显示80%的研究提供了重要的统计数据。不过,他们也同意,实验中太多的因素都可导致正向结果,因此他们制定了清单,希望在未来研究中可采用新的标准。 此后,许多研究人员转向autoganzfeld 测试。这种自动化技术使用电脑来完成关键任务如随机选择图像。通过最大限度地减少人为参与,尽量降低错误结果出现的风险。1987年,荷诺顿(Honorton)使用了“荟萃分析”,这是一种可以从系列研究中找出整体结果的新型统计方法。他对数以百计的 autoganzfeld 实验结果进行了分析,虽然没有以前那样引人注目,结果依然令人印象深刻。 然而,单独的ganzfeld 实验研究彼此间缺乏一致性,这让一些超心理学家感到十分困扰。心灵感应拥护者们指出,如果要求每一项研究都得出满意结果,起码忽略了一个基本的统计学事实:需要大量的样本才能得出少量的结果。如果像目前的结果显示那样,偶然几率是 25%,而心灵感应存在的几率只略高于它,真正的证据就不可能由一个典型的约40人参加的ganzfeld 实验所提供:因为样本集合不够大,数目不够多。只有用“荟萃分析”将多项实验研究结合起来,心灵感应存在的证据才会由模糊变得清晰。而这貌似也是研究者们所正在追寻的。
