北京文都雅思阅读信号词暗藏的玄机

雅思阅读中经常会出现一些信号词，掌握了这些信号词，考生在理解文章时会更容易。本文文都国际教育小编为各位考生分析一下雅思阅读信号词暗藏的玄机，希望大家在日后考试中大家能够注意。

　　一、传统信号词

　　1. 顺接和递进

　　例词：also, furthermore, moreover, what is more, in addition…

　　考点：And Western scientists are starting to draw on this wisdom…(C6, P28, T31找标题)

　　解析：And 在这句话开头，有一定的递进含义， this wisdom则是指代了前面一句话出现的their wealth of traditional knowledge(因纽特人传统的知识)，所以这两句话有紧密的联系，同学们在读题的时候要通过发现信号词，然后发散地看它的前后句，后把考点考察的意思补充完整。

　　2. 对比和转折

　　例词：however, but, although, nevertheless, on the other hand, by comparison…

　　考点：However, we believe that credit must be extended in association with other types of support that help participants develop critical life skills as well as productive businesses。

　　题目中出现了conclude的字眼，总结段落一般是在文章的后，然而带有转折信号词however 这句话，显然就是文章的考点所在。

　　3. 相似

　　例词：similarly, in other words, that is, put another way…

　　考点：In other words, we became aware of the obvious fact that there were ‘limits to growth’。

　　解析：In other words 是解释，换一种说法，通常会以更加简单易懂，清晰的话语陈述出难点，常常难点是考点出没的地方。

　　4. 时间先后

　　例词：firstly, second, next, then, now, later, since, eventually, finally…

　　考点：Three factors are involved in this change. First is an awareness of the severity of the problem. Second, a number of resources to help tackle bullying have become available in Britain…Third, there is evidence that these materials work, and that schools can achieve something.

　　解析：段落结构很清楚，主要是因为有表达顺序的信号词First、second、third，让我们认识这段是在讲，侍强凌弱这种现象已经开始改变，主要是从三个方面入手：意识、资源、监督。这种发展让学校有了更多的方法和有效途径解决存在的问题。这里的First、second、third提示我们三个方面，同时也是一个发展的过程。

　　5. 排列次序

　　例词：another, the second, the most, the best…

　　考点：Most important of all, the traditional measures of ‘risk’, such as parents’ age and education, or whether they were a single parent, bore little or no relationship to the measures of achievement and language development。(C5, P63, T12判断题)

　　解析：most important of all 强调了重要的事情，也就是文中比较重要的结论要出炉了。Single parents是题目中的关键词，同样在这一句里出现了，我们可以利用对信号词的敏感度，抓住文章的考点，进行局部精读。

　　6. 强调作用

　　例词：in fact, in essence, in particular, emphasize…

　　考点：This, in essence, is the problem of modern sociobiology- to discover the degree to which hard-wired genetic programming dictates…(C5, P21, T18信息包含题)

　　解析：信息包含题考察细

　　二、非传统信号词

　　1. 表达客观结论findings

　　例词：indicate that, suggest that, find out, conclude that, point out, report that, demonstrate that…

　　考点：But Byers points out that the benefits of increased exercise disappear rapidly after training stops, so any improvement in endurance resulting from juvenile play would be lost by adulthood。

　　解析：配对题目是典型的人名和成果的配对，我们到文章中定位人名就比较好找到答案，可是人名出现的地方就一定是考点么？不见得。但是一旦表达客观结论的信号词与人名同时出现时，就是考点出没的地方了。

　　2. 表达主观观点statements, opinions

　　例词：say, believe, argue that, maintain that, claim…

　　考点：The UCSF researchers maintain that the simplest and most cost-effective action is to establish smoke-free work places, schools and public places.

　　解析：这道分类题考察区分a finding和an opinion。表达个人观点(an opinion)带有一定的主观性，所用的信号词显然与客观事实发现(a finding)的有所区别。

　　3. 特殊符号

　　例词： ‘word’, ——, word…

　　考点：In very significant cases of role change, e.g. from a soldier in the ranks to officer, from bachelor to married man, the change of role has to have a very obvious sign, hence rituals。

　　解析：文中斜体的部分其实就是考察的考点，不知道这个词语的意思没有关系，只要能判断，需要填写的单词是斜体部分，照抄过来就可以轻松拿分。

　　以上是文都国际教育小编为各位考生介绍的雅思阅读信号词的详细内容，每种信号词对文章段落的结构有着重要作用和意义，掌握这些信号词，有利于考生对段落主旨、上下句关系迅速做出判断，提高做题效率。
