第七天：尋找線索 破解新題---7選5解題思路

一、 基本技巧

關于新題型，2006年考綱上公布的新題型有三種，但這三種題型多少都涉及文章的銜接(cohesion)與連貫(coherence)，其中7選5這種題型最基礎，也最具代表性，因此下面介紹的技巧以7選5為例。這種題的做題技巧主要包括兩個方面：做題步驟與判斷方法。

一） 做題步驟

1． 閱讀各個空的前后句，標記關鍵詞

在閱讀文章的開始部分、明確文章的基本話題以后，要閱讀五個空各自的前后句，并將前后句中的解題線索，即關鍵詞標記下來。關鍵詞包括句中的核心名詞或名詞詞組（如帶有形容詞的名詞詞組）、專有名詞、時間數(shù)字、代詞、連詞等。
2． 閱讀各個選項，尤其是選項的首句，標記關鍵詞

3． 比較上述兩類關鍵詞，確定答案

4． 將確定的答案代入原文，看讀起來是否通順。

二） 判斷方法

在標記了原文與選項的關鍵詞以后，可以按照下列原則判斷原文的空與選項是否匹配：

1． 詞匯銜接

正確選項中的關鍵詞一般重復前一句的關鍵詞，也與下一句的關鍵詞相呼應。

2． 邏輯銜接

正確選項與原文空之前的句子在邏輯上是連貫的。例如，前一句使用although，那么正確選項的內容應該與之相反。

3． 代詞銜接

正確選項中代詞之后的關鍵詞一定在原文的前一句談論過。例如，如果選項中說this reward，而且這一選項是正確答案，那么原文中的空之前的句中一定出現(xiàn)過reward這個詞或它的同義詞。
