托福閱讀考試詞匯考察特點

托福閱讀考試詞匯考察特點

托福閱讀涉及的知識面比較廣泛，所以對學生的詞匯要求就比較高，有些考生在面對托福閱讀時總是有些畏懼，因為詞匯積累不夠。我提示各位考生，一定要了解托福閱讀考試中詞匯考查的特點，清楚之后備考起來會更方心。下面是我要和大家分享的托福閱讀考試中詞匯考查深度分析，小伙伴們可以參考一下!

　特點一：托福閱讀高分至少六級詞匯量

第一是因為托福閱讀中有一種題目叫做詞匯題，詞匯題是這樣的一種題：你認識這個單詞就肯定能做對，而且能很快地做對。你不認識這個單詞就是經過層層推斷，耗費了很多時間還很容易得到錯誤的結果，所以說解決詞匯題的王道就是認識這個單詞。那么詞匯題在托福閱讀中究竟有多重要呢?是占了25%以上的比例的。OG上說，每篇閱讀題有3-6個單詞題(每篇托福閱讀總共只有13個題呀)，可見詞匯題的重要性--只要把詞匯題解決了，就能輕松拿下托福閱讀中的一大塊分數，還為做其它題節(jié)省了寶貴的時間。托福閱讀的詞匯題中考到的詞匯是什么難度呢?大概是6級的詞匯，也有稍難一些的。所以為了保險起見，單詞的水平要達到6級以上，這樣就可以把閱讀中單詞題的分數拿滿。

第二是閱讀速度的問題。對于中國考生，托福閱讀的一大障礙在于時間不夠用，讀文章的速度太慢了。不是說認識單詞就能快速讀懂文章，而是說單詞量太小閱讀速度必然大打折扣!

　特點二：托福閱讀專業(yè)詞匯要求高

第一是托福閱讀考察的詞匯是偏于專業(yè)性質的，原因是這樣：托?？荚囀菫榱丝纯忌挠⒄Z水平能否保證其在大學中順利學習專業(yè)知識，因此考察的內容是偏重學術的方面的，而閱讀文章也多從大學課本的簡易內容中選取。所以在背單詞的時候對于學術詞匯給予一定程度的重視是合理的。

第二是托福閱讀考察的專業(yè)詞匯難度有限。這點也是很自然的，因為托福畢竟是一門英語水平考試，又不是專業(yè)考試。難度較大的專業(yè)詞匯在閱讀中確實會出現，但根本不是考察的內容，而且其意思可以很容易地猜出來。

舉個例子：It should be obvious that cetaceans--whales, porpoises, and dolphins--are mammals，這是OG閱讀題中的一個原句。這句話中的cetacean就是一個過分專業(yè)而無需背的單詞，你只要認識了whales，dolphins，mammals就知道了cetacean是生活在水里(海里的)動物，而且是哺乳動物，這就相當于知道了cetacean的意思了。需要記憶的是mammal，whale，dolphin這種比較常用的專業(yè)詞匯，而不是cetacean這種生僻的類型，把精力放在背這種艱澀的單詞上是很不值得的。

托福閱讀考試中，詞匯題有什么好的答題技巧嗎？

詞匯題在托福閱讀考試中很重要，占了25%以上的比例。在托福閱讀的備考過程中，深入理解才是正確答題的關鍵所在。那么，想要提升托福閱讀高分的關鍵點又在哪里呢？下面來看下托福閱讀考試中詞匯題答題思路：
一、詞匯類題目的問題的提問形式
新托福詞匯類題目的出題形式通常為：
ThewordXinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
用來考察考生某單詞在文章上下文中意思的問題類型最為常見。
二、答題步驟
第一步：在文章中定位到陰影標識的單詞或短語。認識單詞直接選。
第二步：如為生詞讀原文，仔細閱讀該詞或短語所在句子。
第三步：根據上下文含義推測含義。
第四步：少量單詞可由詞根驗證答案。選擇答案時，不要僅僅因為某個選項符合該單詞的某一個正確意思就將其作為正確選項，題目考察的是作者在文章上下文中使用了哪一個詞義。
三、解題線索
1.論點對論據TS+D
Commensalassociationssometimesinvolveonespecies'obtainingfoodthatisinadvertentlyexposedbyanother.Forinstance,severalkindsofbirdsfeedoninsectsflushedoutofthegrassbygrazingcattle.
Thewordinadvertentlyinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
A.indefensibly
B.substantially
C.unintentionally
D.partially
拿到這個題目先看一下這個單詞是否認識，如果認識就直接選出來，如果不認識就回到原文，原文說共生協會有時候認為一種物種獲得食物的方法是被另一種物種inadvertently暴露的。這時候后面的句子是對這個句子的一個論據，句子說，舉個例子，一些鳥類吃的昆蟲是放牧的牛群從草當中驅趕出來的。再觀察四個選項：A.不能防御地;B.大幅;C.無意中地;D.部分地。很顯然，這個原文中與選項中最接近的答案就是無意中。最好將選好的答案再帶到原文翻譯一下：“一種物種獲得食物的方法是被另一種物種無意中暴露的。一些鳥類吃的昆蟲是放牧的牛群從草當中驅趕出來的?！边@類題目在做題的過程中要注意一些標志詞：Forexample,Forinstance,Take…forexample,Evidencescomefrom,Like…,As…
2.前后搭配
Membersofpoorpeasantfamiliesspunorwoveclothandlinensathomeforscantremuneration,inanattempttosupplementmeagerfamilyincome.
Thewordmeagerinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
A.verynecessary
B.verylow
C.traditional
D.primary
這道題目如果認識單詞就直接選，如果不認識單詞，就看原文。原文說貧困的農民家庭的成員在家里織布，后一句說是為了支持他們meager的家庭收入，根據前后搭配，顯然是微薄的家庭收入，所以就選B。
3.并列信息
…Absenteeismandlatenesshurtproductivityandsinceworkwasspecialized,disruptedtheregularfactoryroutine.Industrializationnotonlyproducedafundamentalchangeinthewayworkwasorganized;ittransformedtheverynatureofwork.
Theworddisruptedinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
A.prolonged
B.established
C.followed
D.upset
disrupt在文章句子中出現and連接的并列信息hurt,根據這一并列信息，我們可以得出disrupt在此句中的意思為與hurt并列的信息，所以此題選D。在這類題目中要注意這些連接詞and、or、aswellas、notonly…butalso、some…others…。
4.因果邏輯
In1815hepublishedthefirstmoderngeologicalmap“AMapoftheStrataofEnglandandWaleswithaPartofScotland”,mapsometiculouslyresearchedthatitcanstillbeusedtoday.
Thewordmeticulouslyinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
A.carefully
B.quickly
C.frequently
D.obviously
這道題目中meticulously可能有很多同學不認識，但是根據因果邏輯，原文說這個地圖是如此怎樣地被研究，以至于直到今天還在使用，選項中最為接近的意思應該是仔細的研究，只有仔細的研究才導致這個地圖直到今天仍然被沿用。在做這類題目時要關注原文中表示邏輯關系的引導詞，比如Dueto/Givenby/Since/derivefrom/stemfromTherefore/So/Hence/…follows/Enough…to…/too…to…/So…that…
5.反向邏輯
TheJovianplanetshaveverythickatmospheresconsistingofvaryingamountsofhydrogen,helium,methane,andammonia.Bycomparison,theterrestrialplanetshavemeageratmospheresatbest.
Thewordmeagerinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
A.rich
B.thin
C.unique
D.complex
這道題原文說類木行星有很厚的大氣層，然而類地行星有meager的大氣層，根據反向邏輯，類地行星的大氣層肯定是與厚相反的，所以應該是很薄的大氣層，所以這道題目選B。在反向邏輯中要注意以下的標志詞：
表示讓步：Even/Although/Despite
表示轉折：But/Yet/However
表示對比：Whereas/While/Incontrast/Ontheotherhand
6.詞根詞綴
Theundisputedpre-ColumbianpresenceinOceaniaofthesweetpotato,whichisaNewWorlddomesticate,hassometimesbeenusedtosupportHeyerdahl’s“AmericanIndiansinthePacific”theories.
Thewordundisputedinthepassageisclosestinmeaningto
A.mysterious
B.unexpected
C.acknowledged
D.significant
這個題目中undisputed,un是一個表示否定的前綴，dispute大多數同學認識，這個單詞是指爭辯，那么根據前綴un就知道undisputed指不能爭辯，或者無可爭辯，所以選項里面應該選C,大家都承認的，都接受的。
