很多同学都认为遇到判断题,正确的选TRUE,错误的选FALSE,而没有提及的选NOT GIVEN。其实,这只是对判断题选项的表面理解。真正提高你判断题正确率的关键在于,站在雅思阅读命题人的角度去挖掘TRUE、FALSE、NOT GIVEN背后的深刻含义。
今天,我们着重讲解的是90%的同学都会混淆的一个易错点,也就是如何正确区分FALSE和NOT GIVEN。那么,现在我们一起来看一看FALSE、NOT GIVEN的命题规律都有哪些吧~
FALSE
1. 题目偷换原文概念
原文:
It was named the Silk Road after its most precious commodity, which was considered to be worth more than gold.
题目:
Gold was the most valuable material transported along the Silk Road.
分析:
原文意思是丝绸是最贵的商品,而题目意思是黄金是最有价值的物品。该题虽然没有出现反义词,但是根据原文就可以明确推断出最贵的商品是丝绸,而不是黄金.因此题目张冠李戴,答案选FALSE。
2. 题目和原文信息相反
原文:
These gondolas always weigh the same, whether or not they are carrying boats.
题目:
The weight of the gondolas varies according to the size of being carried.
分析:
题目中的varies与原文中的same构成反义词,两个词表达的含义截然相反,所以答案选FALSE。
上面我们分析了FALSE题的命题规律,相信大家对于遇到那种类型的题选FALSE有了一定的理解。但是呢,又有很多同学把很多FALSE题与NOT GIVEN题混淆,他们都单纯地认为NOT GIVEN是在文中找不到信息,其实这样的理解可以说是基本正确,但是仍然没有认识到NOT GIVEN背后的其它命题规律。接下来,我们再看看这类题怎么做吧~
NOT GIVEN
1. 原文大范围,题目小范围
原文:
The tourist mainly comes from Europe
题目:
The tourist mainly comes from the UK
分析:
欧洲和英国是具有“包含关系”的两种概念,原文说游客来自欧洲 - 大范围,而题目说游客来自英国 - 小范围,那么原文信息中游客来自欧洲,他们有可能来自英国,也有可能来自法国、意大利等等其它欧洲国家,因此题目中游客来自英国只是原文的一种可能性,我们无法判断其正误,所以答案是NOT GIVEN。
2. 根据原文信息无法推断题目描述的关系
原文:
Lower secondary schools in Japan cover three school years, from the seventh grade (age 13) to the ninth grade (age 15). Virtually all pupils at this stage attend state schools: only 3 per cent are in the private sector. Schools are usually modern in design, set well back from the road and spacious inside.
题目:
Private schools in Japan are more modern and spacious than state-run lower secondary schools.
分析:
虽然题目中的Private school和lower secondary schools都提到了,modern and spacious也提到了,但是题目中的比较关系more than根据原文信息无法推断,所以答案就是NOT GIVEN。
3. 题目信息在原文中没有提及
原文:
On the other hand, dams, aqueducts and other kinds of infrastructure will still have to be built, particularly in developing countries where basic human needs have not been met. But such projects must be built to higher specifications and with more accountability to local people and their environment than in the past. And even in regions where new projects seem warranted, we must find ways to meet demands with fewer resources, respecting ecological criteria and to a smaller budget.
题目:
In the future, governments should maintain ownership of water infrastructures.
分析:
原文只提到了water infrastructures,和governments和ownership并没有什么关系,因此选NOT GIVEN。
好啦,到这里大家应该会发现我们做雅思阅读判断题时,最重要的一点就是:做题的依据一定来自于原文信息,而不是自己的脑补!
最后,我们来总结一下判断题中FALSE和NOT GIVEN的解题思路吧:
题目信息与原文不同或者相反,答案是FALSE
题目是原文中的一种可能性,或者根据原文无法判断题目信息,就选NOT GIVEN
