托福句子简化题难题汇总
要被简化的句子已经用阴影标出,然后提出下列问题:
Whichofthesentencesbelowbestexpressestheessentialinformationinthehighlightedsentenceinthepassage?
Incorrectchoiceschangethemeaninginimportantwaysorleaveoutessentialinformation.
正确选项特征
Expresstheessentialinformation——必保留主要信息
问:
什么是essentialinformation?
答:
主要逻辑中的主干信息。
例:
虽然今天很冷,但是穿着漂亮衣服的小明还是开开心心地在外面堆雪人。
Essentialinformation:
小明堆雪人
正确选项:
选项的essentialinformation必须包含小明堆雪人。
注:
虽然小明堆雪人,但是今天很冷。
这一选项是错误的。
因为在这里小明堆雪人是次要信息。
错误选项特征
1.leaveoutessentialinformation
形式:
逻辑错误,主干错误
解决方法:
反其道而行之——一定要在选项最重要的位置找到题干最主要的信息,排除无中生有的新的逻辑关系
2.changethemeaninginimportantways
形式:
细节题常见错误选项(混,偏,无,极,比,反)
解决方法:
从选项回到原句比较细节(先从常见错误选项入手)
四.解题步骤
1.找原句逻辑:
找逻辑连接词词。
常见逻辑连接词:
转折:
but,however,yet,nevertheless
让步:
although,though,eventhough,despite,inspiteof
比较对比:
more/lessthan,as…as,while,whereas,unlike
条件:
if,onlyif,except,unless,providethat,aslongas。
因果:
because(of),since,as,why,for,therefore,hence,thus,consequently,leadto,asaresult(of),resultin,resultfrom,reason,AcontributetoB,attribute/ascribeAtoB,explain,comefrom,soAthatB,AberesponsibleforB
注意:
在因果关系中要注意区分谁是结果,谁是原因。
要注意隐性因果关系词:
force,make,explain,不能直接排除选项中有因果逻辑关系的词。
转折关系只是说明转折之后的信息是主要信息是主要信息,要保留。
不能直接排除选项中没有转折关系的项。
2.找原句主干:
谁做什么,谁是什么(一般删掉修饰语:
定语从句,介词短语结构,时间地点状语)
注意:
若两个句子有对比关系,因为两个分句中被比较的事物本质可能都差不多,所以表修饰的定语从句才是关键,这时候定语时关键。
*第一二步实际上是找到原句的essentialinformation
3.看选项逻辑,主干
4.对比原文与选项主要信息。
排除有明显与主要信息矛盾的选项了,排除无中生有的逻辑
*这个步骤在实际做题的时候,其实是和第三步同时发生的。
5.对比细节:
一般情况下已经排除了三个排除,只剩下正确选项。
如果还剩下两个选项,就应该从选项回到原句比较细节(细节有所缩减,但是选项中的细节必定在原句中已经体现)
五.例题解析

Whichofthesentencesbelowbestexpressestheessentialinformationinthehighlightedsentenceinthepassage?
Incorrectchoiceschangethemeaninginimportantwaysorleaveoutessentialinformation.
A.Despitethefactthatwealthisrelativelyevenlydistributedinpastoralsocieties,genderinequalitystillexistsbecauseonlymencanacquiremilitaryskillsandsocialstatus.
B.Inequalitiesofgenderexistedinpastoralistsocietiesuntilmostcommunitiesbegantorequirewomentopossessthesameskillsasmenandtakepartinthemilitary.
C.Inequalitiesofgenderinpastoralistsocietieswerecausedbysteephierarchiesofwealthanddifferencesinmilitarytrainingbetweenmenandwomen.
D.Inpastoralsocieties,genderinequalityiscomparativelymildbecausewealthisrelativelyevenlydistributedandwomenhavetolearnmostofthesameskillsthatmendo.
解析:
找原句逻辑:
but(but之后重要)
找原句主干:
theyseemstohavebeensoftened(by..andalsoby)
3.找选项主干逻辑
A.Despite…(不重要),genderinequalitystillexistsbecause…
B.Inequalitiesofgenderexistedin…until…
C.Inequalitiesofgenderwerecausedby…
D.Genderinequalityiscomparativelymildbecause…
4.对比原文与选项主要信息
Softened的概念只在Dcomparativemild中出现,所以选择D.
