如何確定雅思閱讀的考點

小編： 106能夠快速確定雅思閱讀的考點，對于迅速提高閱讀成績至關重要。
單點測試
雅思考試是“單點測試”：一道題目一般只考察一個點，這就是題目的考點。而其余信息一般都是文中所討論到得事實，不作為考點。因此，高效正確的確定考點，對于提高雅思閱讀的速度和解題準確度，是一個關鍵點。
事實信息和邏輯信息
雅思閱讀題目中，大部分信息為“事實信息”，是不需要確認其正確性的；而關鍵的信息是“邏輯信息”，為題目的考點所在。
筆者將聊舉數例，以供讀者體會：
例1：C3T1P2Q21 （劍3 Test 1 Passage 2 Question 21,以下均用同義符號體系）
YES if the statement reflects the claims of the writer
NO if the statement contradicts the claims of the writer
NOT GIVEN if it is impossible to say what the writer thinks about this
Q21. Opponents of smoking financed the UCSF study.
本題之事實信息為opponents of smoking以及the UCSF study，而邏輯信息為 financed,即文章會談到opponents of smoking 和the UCSF study這兩個細節，而要求判斷的是“前者是否資助（financed）了后者”。
本題的原文如下：“A more recent study by researchers at the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) has shown that second-hand cigarette smoke does more harm to non-smokers than to smokers. ” 和 “The American Medical Association represents about half of all US doctors and is a strong opponent of smoking.”
上述原文談論到了事實信息，即opponents of smoking, （The American Medical Association represents about half of all US doctors and is a strong opponent of smoking）和the UCSF study （A more recent study by researchers at the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) has shown that second-hand cigarette smoke does more harm to non-smokers than to smokers.）
而題目的考點，是要求考察邏輯信息financed，在原文中沒有提到，所以本題答案為NOT GIVEN.
例2：C5T2P2Q17
TRUE if the statement agrees with the information
FALSE if the statement contradicts the information
NOT GIVEN if there is no information on this
Q17. Current thinking on humour has largely ignored Aristotle's view on the subject.
文章中會談論到事實信息為Current thinking on humour 以及Aristotle's view on the subject，而需要判斷的邏輯信息為 has largely ignored, 要求判斷的是“前者是否很大程度上忽略了后者”。
文章中談到“ most modern humour theorists have settled on some Aristotle's belief that ......”文章中，亞里士多德具體的看法是非常難理解（誰讓人家是亞里士多德呢：），但是我們只要知道題目中的考點，是問人們是不是忽略了他的想法。
題目中的ignore是指“忽略”，而文章中的意思為“大多數人在亞里士多德的想法上達到一致（have settled on）”，題目的考點和原文相反，因此答案選擇FALSE!
例3：C5T3P2Q22
TRUE if the statement agrees with the information
FALSE if the statement contradicts the information
NOT GIVEN if there is no information on this
Q22. Sediment in the irrigation canals on the Nile delta causes flooding.
文章中會談論到事實信息為Sediment in the irrigation canals on the Nile delta 以及 flooding，而需要判斷的邏輯信息為 causes, 要求判斷的是“前者是否導致了后者”。
原文中談到Once north of Cairo, most of the Nile water is diverted into more than 10,000 kilometres of irrigation canals and only a small proportion reaches the sea directly through the rivers in the delta. The water in the irrigation canals is still or very slow-moving and thus cannot carry sediment, Stanley explains. The sediment sinks to the bottom of the canals and then is added to fields by farmers or pumped with the water into the four large freshwater lagoons that are located near the outer edges of the delta: So very little of it actually reaches the coastline to replace what is being washed away by the Mediterranean currents
所以原文提到了到sediment 和irrigation canals，考點邏輯信息causes the flooding 沒有提到，所以答案選擇NOT GIVEN！
從上述例子中看出，能夠迅速確定考點，對于閱讀考試的突破和提高至關重要！希望通過這篇文章的討論，能夠幫助讀者們迅速掌握雅思閱讀的竅門，開啟一個嶄新的閱讀思維世界，并取得雅思閱讀考試的成功。
