雅思閱讀之巧用并列結(jié)構(gòu)秒殺雅思閱讀＂奇葩＂題型

　　在進(jìn)行學(xué)術(shù)型文章寫作時(shí)，羅列觀點(diǎn)式的并列型寫作結(jié)構(gòu)是常用的段落展開手法。因此，在雅思學(xué)術(shù)型閱讀文章中，這種結(jié)構(gòu)也屢見不鮮。所謂“并列型結(jié)構(gòu)”，指的是按照某種分類特征羅列要點(diǎn)的敘述結(jié)構(gòu)，最簡(jiǎn)單的便是First… Second… Third… Finally的敘述邏輯。而在雅思文章中，這種結(jié)構(gòu)的開端位置通常也具有十分鮮明的特征，文章通常會(huì)首先總述一下所羅列要點(diǎn)的數(shù)量，即出現(xiàn)“數(shù)字+分類特征詞”的典型表述。如劍7 Test 3 Passage 3的第四個(gè)段落：首句出現(xiàn)“six detailed resolutions”的描述，因此可以迅速斷定該段落為并列型結(jié)構(gòu)，并依此將段落中六個(gè)并列層次找出。該篇文章后第34-39題的匹配題目中，題干即為Resolution 1 – 6，因此可以根據(jù)之前的分析，迅速定位到第四段的六個(gè)并列層次位置并進(jìn)而完成解題。

　　除了幫助更快速的定位和解答普通題型，在閱讀時(shí)把握好并列型結(jié)構(gòu)也可以幫助同學(xué)們輕松搞定一些非常規(guī)的“奇葩”題型。下面我們來舉個(gè)例子。

　　劍4 Test 1 Passage 1 文后的9-13題：

　　該題目題干為簡(jiǎn)答題形式，但題后給出了備選項(xiàng)，又看似匹配題題型。但若要將其作為匹配題解答，會(huì)陷入一個(gè)兩難境地：用題干定位則信息太長(zhǎng)，用選項(xiàng)定位則信息過多。這個(gè)題目讓很多同學(xué)感覺無從下手。
