分隔與粘連是主要的重復信息的方式
A. 分隔:句子中對主干進行修飾或補充的成分
定語從句:that 同位語:that who “,” 插入語:“,” 分詞結構:分詞 不定式結構:to 介詞短語:介詞
B. 粘連:由分號或冒號分開的上下句結構(大粘連)和一個句子內部的直接簡單重復(小粘連);大粘連:直接同義重復:并列、因果關系詞
雙重否定與肯定句重復:(1)A;not 非A (2)A;It’s wrong/foolish/presumptuous to say 非A
主動句與被動句重復:is the result of is the outgrowth of is the product of A B;B by A
逆否命題重復:A B;非B 非 A(無被動句標志詞)
比較句重復:to the same degree/extent as…as more/less -er better than
手段目的句重復:by for in terms of
特殊并列句重復:包含兩個并列關系從句的句式
時間對比句重復:once formerly initial pristine erstwhile hereto hitherto now future before recent begin start create until no longer previous
比喻句重復:like as
小粘連:and but rather than even as…as so…as to…
2. 判斷句子邏輯關系:
找出信號詞,判斷句子的并列、轉折關系和正(+)、反(—)態(tài)度關系
A. 并列關系:并列 遞進 條件 因果 分號、冒號、破折號
并列:and also or just as similarly correspondingly in the same way indeed accordingly
遞進:even
因果:derive from lead to due to because cause since for therefore thus hence in that so…that so…as to as a result result in result from accordingly consequently give rise to
B. 讓步、轉折:even though although even…though while whereas but yet however nevertheless notwithstanding despite in spite of in contrast to on the contrary on the other hand far from rather than whatever otherwise ironically illogically paradoxically curiously surprisingly unfortunately although…, remain/continue(兩次轉折,— + —)
分號
C. 作者的正、反態(tài)度:態(tài)度語氣詞;在沒有中心詞時,特別要注意靠空格的正、反態(tài)度來解題
D. 強烈對比:時間強對比 人物強對比 對象強對比(句子敘述對象的轉移)
E. 照應:人稱代詞:it 指示代詞:such this that those these 定冠詞:the
F. 主體詞:主體動詞:continue remain shift from…to oscillate between…and turn…into reconcile…and… 人物身份名詞 特征人物的特征性質或特征動作
3. 定位中心詞:
定位與空格對應的詞匯或短語;無中心詞時一般要根據(jù)句子邏輯關系兩空格同時做,兩空格相隔很近時一般也要同時做
