一、预测策略
预测的内容包括形式和意义两个方面。从意义上看,空白处是什么意思?它在句子中作什么成份?起什么作用?那么它应该是什么词性?采用什么形式(原形、分词、比较级)? 例题分析
Adults are getting smarter about how smart babies are. Not long ago, researchers learned that 4-day-olds could understand addition and subtraction. Now, British research (37) Graham Schafer has discovered that infants can learn words for uncommon things long before they can speak. He found that 9-montold infants could be taught, through repeated show-and-tell, to (38) the names of objects that were foreign to them, a result that (39) in some ways the received wisdom that,……
(37)题的考点是名词。有空格前及空格所在句的句意知道,研究人员对幼儿的智力进行了研究。此处所填的词应该是修饰Graham Schafer的头衔,所以推测是psychologist或者scientist。 (38)题的考点是动词。空格所在的这句话是对Graham Schafer研究成果的阐述,说明能够教9个月大的婴儿认识他们所不熟悉的物体的名字,故空格处的动词推测为recognize或者know。
(39)的考点是动词。空格所在的这句话主要是说明前文所提到的研究成果带来的影响,一般重点强调的科学影响要么是推翻或者挑战了以前的观点。所以此处的动词推测为challenges或者deny。
二、单词听写策略:听到什么就填什么,关键在于准确 1、大小写
如果要听写的单词位于句子的开头,或者根据上下文判断是一个专有名词,那么,它的第一个字母应该要大写。 2、词尾的变形
(1)名词:单数与复数,抽象名词的常用后缀,所有格。如(art) prints, (musical) instruments中的复数;(the) world’s (youngest college graduate); 以及-(t)ure, -ty, -ment, -ity等名词后缀。
(2)动词:如过去式、过去分词、现在分词是考查重点。 (3)形容词:注意词尾的写法,是否用比较级等。 (4)副词:注意副词结尾的-ly。
三、演绎法填句
1、原句照搬法:记录过程要流畅,不要拘泥于个别词的拼写上。尽量使用缩写以加快记录速度。如:
e.g. example diffi. difficulty imp. important for. foreign nec. necessary sts. students univ. university v. very
2、关键词扩展原则:先听大意,写关键词,最后再根据意思用自己的话扩展成句。
3、难词回避原则:尽量避开较难的词汇,不去冒险失分,用自己知道的简单的
同义词、近义词替换难词。
4、句型转换原则:用简单的句型代替原来的复杂长句,尽量少写被动句和从句。 5、省略原则:把语句中可有可无的修饰成分尽量省去。
