二、阅读解析
本次考试中出现了两组判断题,一组填空题(简答题的形式),一组标题对应题,一组分类式配对题,三组总结题(其中两组填空式、一组选项式)。
填空题的出题频率依旧中规中矩,每次考试基本上会出1-2篇,这是5-6分中等分数的学生拿分的好题型。填空题虽然有各种形式,但他们的“老大”一直是summary,所以同学们能练好summary,对于其他填空题的形式也就不会怕了。建议中等程度的学生做一篇文章,先做填空题,以保证基本分数为目的。
配对题和判断题,也非常符合规律,考试80%的可能性,你一定会遇上这两个小伙伴。这次考试的配对题是分类式的,所以是比较容易定位的,判断题,正如我们课堂上所讲,可以运用一定的技巧,把它放到考试最后做。留有两手准备,有时间就好好做,没时间就用技巧,也能保证一定的正确率。
另外,本次考试的填空题出现了比较严重的乱序现象,建议考生在复习备考过程中,对真题里的无序题型加强训练。
