四六級(jí)大綱在閱讀理解部分都指出：測(cè)試學(xué)生通過(guò)閱讀獲取書面信息的能力。因此，為了有針對(duì)性的考查大家對(duì)書面信息的獲取能力，經(jīng)過(guò)對(duì)歷年真題的歸納總結(jié)發(fā)現(xiàn)，四六級(jí)考點(diǎn)出處有一定特征。其中第一大特征就是在邏輯關(guān)系處出考題。

　　小編先帶大家看看大家最熟悉的考點(diǎn)出處：轉(zhuǎn)折處出考點(diǎn)。常見(jiàn)轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)聯(lián)詞有：but, however, yet, nevertheless, while(然而), on the contrary等等。

　　真題再現(xiàn)

　　大家先試試身手，不會(huì)的話，記得找出真題再做一遍喲!

　　例1：A few months ago, it wasn't unusual for 47-year-old Carla Toebe to spend 15 hours per day online. She'd wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs – leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem.(2010.6, cet4 )

　　51. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?

　　A. The poorly managed state of her house.

　　B. The high financial costs adding up.

　　C. Fatigue resulting from lack of sleep.

　　D. Her daughter's repeated complaints.

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】本段主要描述了Carla Toebe因上網(wǎng)嚴(yán)重影響到生活，最后一句后半句通過(guò)轉(zhuǎn)折指出，是她4個(gè)女兒的不停抱怨才讓她最終意識(shí)到自己有了問(wèn)題(had a problem)，而這一問(wèn)題正是題干中提到的“spending too much time on the Internet”。

　　例2：I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like a peon (勤雜工) plenty of people. But at 19 years old, I believed I deserved inferior treatment from professional adults. Besides, people responded to me differently after I told them I was in college. Customers would joke that one day I’d be sitting at their table, waiting to be served.

　　54. How did the author feel when waiting tables at the age of 19?

　　A. She felt it unfair to be treated as a mere servant by professional.

　　B. She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded her as a peon.

　　C. She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her.

　　D. She found it natural for professionals to treat her as inferior.

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】作者19歲時(shí)在飯店當(dāng)招待員，對(duì)于不被顧客尊重，她的看法是“deserved inferior treatment”，即“低人一等是理所當(dāng)然的”。換句話說(shuō)，作者覺(jué)得有專業(yè)技能的人看低她是十分自然的事，即D選項(xiàng)所述。

　　二、邏輯關(guān)系：并列、因果

　　除了最熟悉的轉(zhuǎn)折以外，邏輯關(guān)系還包含：并列、舉例、因果、遞進(jìn)等等。而緊排在轉(zhuǎn)折之后，相對(duì)在歷年真題中較多出現(xiàn)的考查處，分別是：并列和因果。

　　常見(jiàn)表并列的詞語(yǔ)：and, while(同時(shí)), meanwhile, also;

　　值得注意的是：兩個(gè)句子之間用分號(hào)(;)隔開(kāi)，也表并列。

　　常見(jiàn)表因果的詞語(yǔ)：because, why, the reason, for, so, since, as a result等。

　　同樣值得注意的是：當(dāng)why引導(dǎo)一個(gè)問(wèn)句時(shí)，考點(diǎn)出處往往是緊接著回答此問(wèn)題的句子或相鄰的幾個(gè)羅列點(diǎn)或相連幾段話的首句。

　　并列和因果都比較難以察覺(jué)，需要同學(xué)平時(shí)練習(xí)過(guò)程中就有意識(shí)地對(duì)這兩種邏輯關(guān)系進(jìn)行關(guān)注。

　　真題再現(xiàn)

　　大家先試試身手，不會(huì)的話，記得找出真題，再做一遍喲!

　　例1：(并列)They weren't looking for cured meats, organic produce or beautiful presentation; they were looking for whatever they could get their hands on, and this prioritisation of quantity over quality prevailed for decades, meaning a generation was brought up with food that couldn't compete with neighbouring France, Italy, Belgium or Spain.(2011.6, cet 4)

　　53. Why couldn't Britain compete with some of its neighbouring countries in terms of food in the post-war decades?

　　A. Its food lacked variety.

　　B. Its people cared more for quantity.

　　C. It was short of well-trained chefs.

　　D. It didn't have flavourful food ingredients.

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】本段后半部分提到，這種只重?cái)?shù)量不重質(zhì)量的習(xí)慣持續(xù)了幾十年，這意味著一代英國(guó)人是被無(wú)法和鄰近的法國(guó)、意大利、比利時(shí)和西班牙相媲美的食物養(yǎng) 大的。由此可知，英國(guó)食物無(wú)法跟鄰國(guó)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)是因?yàn)橛?guó)人只重?cái)?shù)量不重質(zhì)量。B選項(xiàng)是對(duì)原文中“prioritisation of quantity over quality”的同意轉(zhuǎn)述。
