TYPE8句子插入题
首先请大家想一个问题,为什么不论插入题出现在第几段, 这种题都只存在于总结题之前,存在于倒数第二题的位置呢?
ETS是一个很人性化的机构, 试想一下, 如果这类题出现在前几道题的位置, 而你又选错了,那么会对你对文章的理解造成困扰, 影响你做其他的问题. 所以,要把它放在后面.而没有它,是不影响你做题不影响你读文章的.
清楚了以上的问题, 那么请大家想, 既然这句插入的话对文章本身是没有影响的, 那么它到底和几句话相关?? 如果和前后两句话都相关,是不是把它拿掉了, 就会对文章有影响!!!!!
所以,可以盖棺定论了,待插入的句子,只和前后某一句话相关.扭过来这个思路,再作这种题就容易的多, 我看到过很多人,做这类题, 先把句子拆成前后两部分, 然后挨个空找,前一半对上了不敢选,因为后一半对不上,最终战战兢兢的蒙一个!它只能对上一半,你为什么要强求前后都能对上呢?
下面隆重向你推荐句子插入题的几种常规思路和无耻技巧。
常规思路1
当插入句是代词 it they开头时，在每个空之前找是否有他们的指代对象，有的，就是正确的。可以借鉴指代题的思路。(具体的回去看type6指代题)
常规思路2
当插入句是指示代词This these such+名词开头时，找名词的同义概念。
常规思路3
如果开头是thus，however这些有逻辑的副词，按照逻辑关系选择
常规思路4
找小词，插入句中有another， other，also+名词，寻找这些名词的句子，然后通过句意判断插入句是在这个句子之前还是之后，一般是之前。
说明一点：对于插入题，无耻技巧是辅助我们做题的，是帮助我们排除选项的，所以先用常规思路解题才是王道!
无耻技巧1
在段落之前的空，必错，因为每段的中心都在第一句，如果把第一句改变了，也就改变句意了
无耻技巧2
空后有代词they it的，generally speaking，是不对的，代词不能跨距，如果在代词前面加一句话，就会改变代词的指代对象。但是有例外存在，比如这一段只有一个主语，就无法排除后有代词的选项，后面我会举例子!
无耻技巧3
优先考虑段落最后的空，注意，我说的是段落最后的，而不是最后一个空，有时候最后一个空在段中。因为放在最末尾，本身对文章没什么影响，所以，优先考虑这个空。
这种题的解题方法和指代题很像，要各种思路技巧融会贯通，灵活运用。看例子吧!
Eg1
Paragraph 1: Extinct but already fully marine cetaceans are known from the fossil record. ■How was the gap between a walking mammal and a swimming whale bridged?
■Missing until recently were fossils clearly intermediate, or transitional, between land mammals and cetaceans.■Very exciting discoveries have finally allowed scientists to reconstruct the most likely origins of cetaceans. ■In 1979, a team looking for fossils in northern Pakistan found what proved to be the oldest fossil whale.
12. Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where the following sentence can be added to the passage.
This is a question that has puzzled scientists for ages.
Where would the sentence best fit?
我要你们铭记这道题，因为这道题无耻到了极致，指示代词this+名词，是第二种常规思路，找question的同意概念，有同学看完了四个空，说怎么没有问题的同意概念啊??!!再好好看看，第二个空之前那么明显的问号在那里!直接选第二个!对，就这么无耻
Eg2
Paragraph 7:■The raising of livestock is a major economic activity in semiarid lands, where grasses are generally the dominant type of natural vegetation. ■The consequences of an excessive number of livestock grazing in an area are the reduction of the vegetation cover and the trampling and pulverization of the soil. ■This is usually followed by the drying of the soil and accelerated erosion.■
12. Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where the following sentence can be added to the passage.
This economic reliance on livestock in certain regions makes large tracts of land susceptible to overgrazing.
Where would the sentence best fit?
还是
指示代词this+名词，去前面找economic reliance on livestock的同意概念，先运用无耻技巧1排除第一个空，然后看第二个空之前也就是第一句，有livestock is a major economic activity，直接选第二个。
Eg3
Paragraph 6: ■Because they are always swimming, tunas simply have to open their mouths and water is forced in and over their gills. ■Accordingly, they have lost most of the muscles that other fishes use to suck in water and push it past the gills. ■In fact, tunas must swim to breathe. ■They must also keep swimming to keep from sinking, since most have largely or completely lost the swim bladder, the gas-filled sac that helps most other fish remain buoyant.
11. Look at the four squares [■l that indicate where the following sentence can be added to the passage.
Consequently, tunas do not need to suck in water.
Where would the sentence best fit?
先看待插入的句子，Consequently，常规思路3，按照逻辑词的逻辑关系，先排除第一个空。看到第一句有because，认为第二个空可能对。再往后看，有同学说第二，第四空之后都有they，排除了选第三个。这就是我刚才提醒过的，当一段只有一个主语，或者说每句的主语都有一个词的时候，这种用其后后代词的排除法就失效了。看这段，每句的主语都是tunas，所以说，不能用代词排除了。
回到刚才的常规解法，运用逻辑关系，选择第二空!带入翻译一下，因为金枪鱼的经常游动，它们必须张着嘴使水流经它们的腮。因此，它们不需要吸水!
Eg4
Paragraph 6: Under very cold conditions, rocks can be shattered by ice and frost. Glaciers may form in permanently cold areas, and these slowly moving masses of ice cut out valleys, carrying with them huge quantities of eroded rock debris. █In dry areas the wind is the principal agent of erosion. █It carries fine particles of sand, which bombard exposed rock surfaces, thereby wearing them into yet more sand. █Even living things contribute to the formation of landscapes. █Tree roots force their way into cracks in rocks and, in so doing, speed their splitting. In contrast, the roots of grasses and other small plants may help to hold loose soil fragments together, thereby helping to prevent erosion by the wind.
11. Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where the following sentence could be added to the passage.
Under different climatic conditions, another type of destructive force contributes to erosion.
Where would the sentence best fit?
看句子，another type，常规思路四，在空后寻找type of destructive force contributes to erosion. 的同意概念，第一个空，the wind is the principal agent of erosion. 就是。如果你不放心，往下看看吧，第二个，有it，无耻技巧二有代词者排除，第三个even，甚至，不符合逻辑。第四个，有their，代词，排除掉。
这类题就告一段落了，提醒一下大家，因为无论用常规思路和无耻技巧都是一种快速的手段，用这些方法的时候你都没怎么好好读句子，所以，选出来之后，一定要回头读一读，是否通顺。
