        托福阅读中,修饰目的题在一定程度上也叫例证题,它主要考查考生透过表面特定的修辞方法/方式发掘潜在的目的能力,在IBT考试中会有3-4个这类型题目。下面,朗阁小编为您整理托福阅读中,修饰目的题的答题方法。
       1、托福阅读修辞目的题的两种考察形式:

  在阅读考试中,这类题目有两种不同的考察形式:一种是给出修辞手段问目的,另一种是给出修辞目的问手段。

  其常见的题目形式如下:

  The author uses X as an example of…

  Why does the author mention X ?

  Why does the author compare … to …?

  Why does the author use the word … in discussing…?

  The author discusses X in paragraph X in order to…

  The author uses X as an example of…

  2、托福阅读修饰目的题解题技巧

  找出这些修辞方法所用的关键词,例如定义中所用的同位语;描述事物大小、形状的形容词和名词;举例用的词,如,for instance, for example, in other words用来解释的词语,如because, this is why, due to等。

  我们来看一个例子:

  One of the most puzzling aspects of the paintings is their location. Other rock paintings,for example, those of Bushmen in South Africa are either located near cave entrances or completely in the open. Cave paintings in France and Spain, however, are in recesses and caverns far removed from original cave entrances.

  Why does the author mention Bushmen in South Africa in paragraph 2 ? (责任编辑:admin)
