句子插入题解题策略




核心解题方法,就是化身为作者,找前后语义呼应。
所以这个题目,和修辞目的一样,本质考的不是阅读,而是写作能力。需要具备写作者思维。
想一下,如果自己是作者,写了这一句话,前后你可能再给出什么内容。
TPO1-54,一共162道句子插入题。
做题线索大致可以分为以下三种:
①代词指代(细分指代词等4种)
②逻辑关系词线索(细分因果关系等10种)
③同义改写线索(细分换词性等7种)
看例子,TPO54P1木材的第13题(可以自己先做再往下看)
要插入的这句话:
Some sleighs were capable of carrying over 100 tons worth of timber.
先去想,如果你是作者,写了这句话,前后可能会出现什么内容。
“有些雪橇可以带100吨的木材。”
那前面应该出现“为什么”或者“怎么”的信息,比如能使雪橇带100吨的条件,后面也会出现“然后如何”的信息。回到原文去找语义呼应,就不难得出答案。要知道D前的最后一句话仍然是可以使雪橇带更多货物的条件/原因,所以放在这里最合适。
同时也可以避开最具干扰的第三个空。

还有TPO47P3珊瑚礁的第13题
要插入的句子:
Yet because many coral reef organisms can tolerate only a narrow range of environmental conditions, reefs are sensitive to damage from environmental changes.
但是因为他们耐受区间很窄,所以对环境变化敏感。
你是作者的话,yet后面是不好,那yet前面写的一般是好,这句再往后写哪些环境变化或者损坏之后如何。就不会跑偏了。
再来TPO28P1 Groundwater
This is a consequence of the slow rate of movement of the groundwater, which often prevents the water table from attaining a flat (horizontal) level.
是个常错题
插入句是对于地下水位不能保持水平的解释,所以句前应该是不水平的现象。
这一题主要是因为 consequence较为抽象,较难对应。
The water table is the underground boundary below which all the cracks and pores are filled with water. In some cases, the water table reaches Earth’s surface, where it is expressed as rivers, lakes and marshes. ▆ Typically, though, the water table may be tens or hundreds of meters below the surface. ▆ The water table is not flat but usually follows the contours of the topography. ▇ Above the water table is the vadose zone, through which rainwater percolates. ▆ Water in the vadose zone drains down to the water table, leaving behind a thin coating of water on mineral grains. The vadose zone supplies plant roots near the surface with water.
另有TPO48P1 Chinese Population Growth
Other developments addressed the problems of dry and sandy areas unsuitable for growing China’s native crops.
句前找developments的重复或指代,句后找dry and sandy问题的解决。

选A而不选B,因为B后虽然比较符合,但是B前对应不上developments.
