考研英语的阅读和四六级的阅读在解题思路上有所不同,前者侧重的是理解的深度,通常找到线索句后,还需要认真比对选项去寻找相应的同义替换,而后者侧重的是阅读的速度,只要在短暂的时间里,找到定位信息句,答案就一目了然了,属于我们说的“连连看”,不会设置很深的陷阱,而考研英语必须要从深层次去理解信息,识别出题老师经常设置的干扰选项,才能做对题目。因此,在离考试仅剩下两个月的时间里,各位考生需要通过做题去总结常见错误选项的特征和正确选项的特征。
下面老师就考研真题中的典型题目进行分析,希望对广大考生有所帮助。
【典型例题 1】
【原文】4①However, the Justices said that Arizona police would be allowed to verify the legal status of people who come in contact with law enforcement. ②That’s because Congress has always envisioned joint federal-state immigration enforcement and explicitly encourages state officers to share information and cooperate with federal colleagues.
【题目】37. On which of the following did the Justices agree, according to Paragraph4?
【选项】[A] Federal officers’ duty to withhold immigrants’ information.
【分析】本题题干在问“根据第四段,下面哪个选项是法官所同意的?”A选项说,联邦官员的职责是要保留移民的相关信息。而文中第四段第二句后半部分说“鼓励州官员去和联邦同事分享信息并且进行合作”,用到的是“share”分享,而A选项里却用的是“withhold”保留,语义刚好相反。
【典型例题 2】
【原文】1①A century ago, the immigrants from across the Atlantic included settlers and sojourners. ②Along with the many folks looking to make a permanent home in the United States came those who had no intention to stay, and who would make some money and then go home. ③Between 1908 and 1915, about 7 million people arrived while about 2 million departed. ④About a quarter of all Italian immigrants, for example, eventually returned to Italy for good. ⑤They even had an affectionate nickname, “uccelli di passaggio,” birds of passage.
【题目】26 “Birds of passage” refers to those who____
【选项】
[B] leave their home countries for good.
[D] find permanent jobs overseas.
【分析】本题题干说,“Birds of passage”指的是哪些人?回文定位到第一段第四句话后半部分,eventually returned to Italy for good,“Birds of passage”指的是最终会永久地返回到意大利的人,而B选项却是永久地离开他们的家园,显然和文章内容相反。同时,D 选项说,在海外找到永久工作的人,和文章语义不一致。
