CET4

这一周陆陆续续向大家提到了阅读常考考点出处的三大特征：

1. 逻辑关系处常考（包括转折、并列、因果等）

2. 特殊标记处常考（包括大写字母、数字等）

3. 引人注目的标点符号处常考（包括引号、小括号）

同学们，是否有在阅读的过程中，有意识地去留心文章中的这些常考出处点呢？

如果有，今天给大家介绍的四六级阅读常考题型当中的第一大题型，几乎占据了四六级常考题型“半壁江山”的细节题，相信就能迎刃而解了。

（1）细节题表现形式

这类题特点是题干的信息比较具体，考查文章中的重要细节。

例：

What is the chief concern of native high-skilled, better-educated employees about the inflow of immigrants? (2011.6., cet6)

而原文出处如下：

Among high-skilled, better-educated employees, however, opposition was strongest in states with both high numbers of immigrants and relatively generous social services. What worried them most, in other words, was the fiscal (财政的)burden of immigration.

可以看到：

题干中的high-skilled, better-educated employees的信息非常具体，和原文完全一致。

（2）细节题解题方法

A. 建议同学先看题干，后看文章。

B. 带着题干中的具体细节信息，在文中相应段落或句子，仔细研读。

C. 答案一定来自原文并要做一定的理解后，进行归纳或推理。

D. 切勿加入过多主观判断。

例：

Throughout this long, tense election, everyone has focused on the presidential candidates and how they’ll change America. Rightly so. But selfishly, I’m more fascinated by Michelle Obama and what she might be able to do, not just for this country, but for me as an African-American woman. As the potential First Lady, she would have the world’s attention. And that means that for the first timepeople will have a chance to get up close and personal with the type of African-American woman they so rarely see.

57. Why does Michelle Obama hold a strong fascination for the author?

A. She serves as a role model for African women.

B. She possesses many admirable qualities becoming a First Lady.

C. She will present to the world a new image of African-American women.

D. She will pay closer attention to the interests of African-American women.

【答案】C

【解析】细节归纳。由第2句可知，作者尤其对Michelle Obama能为身为非裔美国妇女的自己做什么而感兴趣（but for me as an African-American woman），而接下来的两句解释了作者之所以这么感兴趣的原因：Michelle Obama将会让人们第一次有机会靠近和接触他们极少见到的非裔美国女性，也就是她将向世界展现出非裔美国妇女的一种新形象，故答案为C。

【误区排除】

A. 她成为非裔美国妇女的偶像——文中说的是她将代表她们向世界展现新形象，而不是成为她们的榜样；所以这里千万不要加入主观意识。

B. 她身上有许多成为第一夫人的优秀品质——文中未提及

C. 她将向世界展现出非裔美国妇女的一种新形象。

D. 她会密切关注非裔美国妇女的利益——文中未提及

 

做题时间！

As we have seen， the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease —— especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors， such as poor eating habits， smoking， and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can be pursued further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight ， but does not eat very nutritious（有营养的） foods， who feels OK but exercises only occasionally， who goes to work every day， but is not an outstanding worker， who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk ， and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts， but sleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.

The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely not ill and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs. Both types have simply been called well. In recent years， however， some health specialists have begun to apply the terms well and wellness only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise and they make a point of monitoring their body‘s condition. Most important， perhaps， people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap （缺陷） may be well， in this new sense， if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations. Wellness may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve， but as an ideal that people can strive for. People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living， the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.

1. Today medical care is placing more stress on______.
A. keeping people in a healthy physical condition

B. monitoring patients ‘body functions
C. removing people‘s bad living habits

D. ensuring people‘s psychological well－being

2.Traditionally， a person is considered “well” if he ______.
A. does not have any unhealthy living habits

B. does not have any physical handicaps
C. is able to handle his daily routines

D. is free from any kind of disease

 

【答案】1. C 2. D

【解析】

1. 题干中的medical care is placing more stress on和原文第一段中的the focus of medical care细节一致。

而在第一段第一句As we have seen， the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease —— especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors， such as poor eating habits， smoking， and failure to exercise.破折号之后的内容表明，现代医疗保健主要关注的是改掉人们的不良生活习惯。这里考生应对从文中找到所需的细节进行适当归纳。

2. 题干中的traditionally和considered “well” 都能在原文第二段首句The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely not ill and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs.中找到。

该句提到，传统医学把not ill和in excellent health两种状态都称作“well”，由此可知，传统医学认为的“well”就是“远离疾病”，所以，这里要对细节进行适当理解。即要理解excellent health：非常健康，与free from any kind of disease“远离任何疾病”是同一个意思。
