雅思閱讀是非無判斷題的應對方法
1. 關于False和Not Given的解釋
Students generally find this type of exercise rather difficult. One reason is that they are used to doing true and false exercises where the false covers false and not given. Then when they come to do true, false or not given, they cannot make the distinction between the three different types of contradiction and not given. It is therefore important that students are able to understand what false means in true, false and not given. There are three types of contradictions:
學生通常發現這種題型很難。其中的原因之一是這些學生習慣于做true和false題目，其中的false涵蓋了false和not given兩種情況。所以當學生在做true, false和 not given的題目時他們無法區分三個不同種類的矛盾對立狀況和not given的區別。因此，學生要理解false的含義。總共有三種矛盾對立狀況：
statements which are the opposite of the original text.
命題與原文內容對立。
statements which are the opposite of the original text, because they are negative.
命題與原文對立，因為命題否定原文內容。
statements where the information is not the opposite or negative, but the information in the statement contradicts that given in the text.
命題信息既不對立也不否定，但是和原文內容矛盾。
Look at the examples below relating to the text and exercises:
Example 1
原文：Hurricanes have winds of at least 74 miles per hour.
題目：Hurricanes are winds with the speed of up to 74 miles per hour.
分析：由于原文中的核心內容是at least 74 miles per hour，而題目中是up to 74 miles per hour。因此，這就是False的第一種情況：命題與原文內容對立。
Example 2
原文：As forecasting improved communities were no longer surprised by hurricanes and could take measures to evacuate ahead of the storm. While destruction still continues, the number of deaths in hurricanes has dropped significantly.
題目：The destruction caused by hurricanes has ceased due to improvements in forecasting.
分析：原文的核心內容是While destruction still continues，而題目中的內容是The destruction caused by hurricanes has ceased。因此，這就是False的第二種情況：命題否定原文內容。
Example 3
原文：In 1609, a fleet of ships carrying settlers from England to Virginia USA was struck by a hurricane. Some of the ships were damaged and part of the fleet grounded on Bermuda, an isolated nation in the Atlantic. These passengers became the first people to live on Bermuda.
題目：The first people to live on Bermuda were settlers who chose to live there as alternative to England.
分析：通過原文和題目比較我們發現：沒有明顯的對立和否定的詞匯出現。而是通過句式結構的轉換產生了題目和文章信息的矛盾。因此，這就是False的第三種情況。
那么，not given是如何判斷呢?我們再來看一個例子：
Example 4
原文：The Mayans also showed their respect for hurricanes by building their major settlements away from the hurricane-prone coast-line.
題目：The Mayans lost many of their major settlements because of hurricanes.
分析：盡管題目和原文中有對應的詞出現：The Mayans和major settlements，但是題目中的因果關系在文章中并沒有體現。也沒于出現有關lost的相應表述。因此我們可以判斷此題為not given。
2. What is the keyword? 什么是關鍵詞
Select ONE keyword from each of the following:
從以下的句子中劃出一個關鍵詞：
Networking is not a modern idea.
People fall into two basic categories.
All teachers are cynics.
The first piece of Hesses art has little effect on visitors to the gallery.
The New Forest has already been made into a National Park.
Suggested answers:
參考答案：
not
two
all
little or perhaps first
already
The suggested answers Ive given may not seem that obvious to the students who would possibly consider keywords such as modern or New Forest as more significant. However, the keywords shown have a greater significance in terms of the meaning of the whole statement and illustrate a number of traps in the test. For instance:
我所給出的參考答案又有可能對學生來說不是那么明顯。學生有可能認為諸如modern或New Forest 這一類關鍵詞更重要一些。但是，根據整個題目的意義來說，參考答案所給出的關鍵詞更加重要，而且體現了考試出題的陷阱。請看以下例子的分析:
not makes the statement negative as opposed to possibly being positive in the text
two determines a specific number of categories which may differ in the text.
all determines that every teacher is a cynic and not a proportion of.
little has a negative connotation as opposed to a little another one to watch out for is few and a few
already shows that the New Forest was made into a National Park in the past and is not a future proposal i.e. an indication of past, present or future time.
These examples hence illustrate the importance of looking out for: negativity, a specific number, the whole or a proportion of, positive and negative connotation and reference to time. Other ones to watch out for include:
這些例子搜尋以下關鍵詞的重要性：否定詞，具體的數字，限定范圍的詞，具有肯定或否定意義的詞和時間指示詞。其他的需要搜尋的關鍵詞包括：
l Modals e.g. words like must, should, have to
情態動詞
l Adverbs of frequency e.g. sometimes, always
頻率副詞，如sometimes, always
l Words such as most, some, all
諸如most, some, all等限定詞
3. 同義轉換能力
A paraphrase is a restatement of a paragraph, sentence, or word.
我們通過對一道TRUE/YES考題的分析來掌握同義轉換能力。
EXAMPLE
The original sentence :
Until recently, criminologists could not afford to analyze DNA evidence for all homicide cases.
An effective paraphrase of this sentence:
Crime labs now can use DNA for all murder cases.
NOTE: This paraphrase utilizes synonyms to replace key words. Some are very close , while others take more liberties . The essential meaning has been retained, however, despite these significant changes.
通過上述的分析，總結出以下四種同義詞轉換技巧：
replace a Phrase with a Word 單詞詞組轉換
Until recently轉換成了now，criminologists轉換成了Crime labs
Start the Sentence Differently 句型結構轉換
原句采用了Until recentlycriminologists could not的結構, 而在題目中的運用了Crime labs now can的結構
Replace a Word with a Synonym 同義詞轉換
同義詞轉換包含了詞匯轉換的內容，但更注重的是對于單詞本身的替換。
上面例子中最明顯的同義詞替換就是homicide和murder。另外analyze和use的替換也屬于這種情況。
Change Passive into Active Voice/Negative Slant to Positive 主動被動轉換/ 否定肯定轉換
這種轉換方式和句型結構的轉換有相似的地方，但更注重表達方式的理解。如until recentlycould not afford to analyze 轉換成了now can use
