toefl閱讀句子插入題
託福閱讀部分中的句子插入題相對於詞彙題、句子簡化題、事實信息題，它在每篇文章都會出現一道題，而且位置是固定的，一定在最後一題內容小結題之前的倒數第二題，如此一來若是答錯了也不影響考生對文章的理解和做題。那麼如何應對該類考題呢?本站小編接下來就跟大家分享toefl閱讀句子插入題的解法。
既然這句插入的話對文章本身是沒有影響的，那麼插入的句子插在某段段首的機率大麼?答案明顯是否定的。原因呢?因爲外國人的思維模式比較直截了當，不會像中國人那樣藏着掖着，拋磚引玉或是畫龍點睛。所以往往在某段第一句的句子在該段都起着至關重要的角色：主題句，它會總結上文，而更多的情況是引領下文。
我們排除了一個答案：就是段首的位置，但是還有三個干擾選項啊!!!句子插入題到底在考察什麼呢?答案是：上下文的銜接。插入的句子一定要和上下文銜接得當。下面環球託福老師就帶廣大的托兒們瞭解句子插入題解題方法。
步驟一：先閱讀要插入的句子。
步驟二：關注插入的句子主語部分，要在該插入句子之前得以重複。
以TPO4 Deer Population of the Puget Sound的句子插入題爲例。
Paragraph 2-3: Nearly any kind of plant of the forest understory can be part of a deer's
diet, where the forest inhibits the growth of grass and other meadow plants,
the black-tailed deer browses on huckleberry, salad, dogwood, and almost any other shrub
or herb. But this is fair-weather feeding. What keeps the black-tailed deer alive in the harsher seasons of plant decay and dormancy? One
compensation for not hibernating is the built-in urge to migrate. Deer may move from high-elevation browse areas in summer down to the lowland areas in late fall.
Even with snow on the ground, the high bushy understory is exposed;
also snow and wind bring down leafy branches of cedar, hemlock, red alder,
and other arboreal fodder.
The numbers of deer have fluctuated markedly since the entry of Europeans
into Puget Sound country. The early explorers and settlers told of abundant
deer in the early 1800s and yet almost in the same breath bemoaned the lack of
this succulent game animal.
Look at the four squares [] that indicate where the following sentence could
be added to the passage.
There food is available and accessible throughout the winter.
Where would the sentence best fit?
插入的句子主語部分出現兩個單詞there 和food, there是地點狀語，說明插入的位置之前出現了地點和食物。而文中的四個插入的句子只有第二處之前提到了high-elevation browser和lowland areas, 並且還提到了鹿吃的browse。所以答案是第二處。
步驟三：注意插入句子的邏輯關係詞：轉折，遞進和因果關係表示結果的詞。
下面以TPO 3 Long-term stability of ecosystem爲例。
Paragraph 6: Ecologists are especially interested to know what factors
contribute to the resilience of communities because climax communities all over
the world are being severely damaged or destroyed by human activities. The
destruction caused by the volcanic explosion of Mount St. Helens, in the
northwestern United States, for example, pales in comparison to the destruction
caused by humans. We need to know what aspects of a community are most
important to the community’s resistance to destruction, as well as its
recovery.
Look at the four squares that indicate where the following sentence could
be added to the passage.
In fact, damage to the environment by humans is often much more severe
than damage by natural events and processes.
Where would the sentence best fit?
插入的句子主語部分是：damage to the environment by human, 要和原文得以重複，我們不難發現在第二處和第三處都有提到，但是插入句子的開頭出現了一個邏輯關係詞：in fact。這個詞的意思是：事實上，在託福閱讀插入句子中表示遞進。如果發現邏輯關係詞，問題似乎就迎刃而解了，我們發現第六段的第二句是個例子，也就表明第二句話一定是爲前面一句話服務的，這句話的意思是：火山爆發所造成的破壞比起人類造成的破壞顯得蒼白無力。但是我們發現第一句話中完全沒有提到自然災害所造成的破壞，只是提到了人類活動所造成的破壞。所以我們應該把插入的句子放在第二處，它對第一處進一步闡明作者思想。
環球託福老師也幫助大家總結了常出現在句子插入題中的邏輯關係詞：
表示轉折：however, but, nevertheless, nonetheless
表示遞進：in fact, actually, indeed, furthermore, additionally, besides
表示結果：as a consequence, as a result, thus, hence, so
除了上述三點做題方法，環球託福老師還總結了插入句子中的表示持續性的動詞，例如：continue to, keep on, go on, again, 這些單詞和詞組都有一個共同的特點，都和再一次有關。換句話說，既然它說了“繼續，再一次，持續”則意味着“原來有過，所以才能繼續”，所以在找插入點時，只要把持續做的事，在段落中找到即可，插入的句子一定插在它的後面。
環球託福老師建議我們考生一定要對以上三種做題方法進行掌握，相信託兒們一定能秒殺句子插入題。
