Point No. 4: this is probably one of my favorite points.
第四点,这可能是我最喜欢的技巧之一。
During tests, this happens to all students, they will pick on answer; and then, they'll think about it; and they'll see another answer;
在考试期间,所有学生都有过这种经历,他们会选择一个答案,然后思考一会儿,又觉得是另一个答案,
and they'll want to change their answer; and they don't remember...they don't know, "Which one should I pick?" it's good to go with your first instinct.
他们会想要改写答案,而不记得......他们不知道应该选择哪一个,最好就是跟着第一直觉走。
So if you're doing multiple choice, and right off the bat you think, "Okay, the answer is A"; ‘
所以如果你们在做单选,你们刚开始会觉得“好的,答案是A”,
and then you look, and you think, "Okay, well, maybe the answer is C", if both of them seem like good possibilities, and you don't know,
然后你们又看了看,觉得“好吧,也许答案是C”,如果两个答案看上去都很有可能是正确的,而你们不知道该怎么办,
choose the one you thought of first.
那就选择你们最开始考虑的那个答案吧。
Okay? Go with your gut feeling, go with your instinct.
知道了吗?相信你们的直觉。
No. 5: questions often follow passage order, so what does this mean?
第五点:题目通常都是按照文章顺序排布的,什么意思呢?
Well, it means that Question 1 will probably be somewhere near the top of the reading,
意思就是第一题的内容可能在阅读材料最开始的部分附近,
Question 2 will be underneath Question 1 in the reading.
第二题在材料中第一题内容的下方。
So the questions...one will be at the top, then two, then three, then four, then five.
所以题目......第一题的内容会在最上面,然后第二题,然后第三题、第四题、第五题。
So it's important because if for example you find the answer for Question 2, it's very probable that the answer for Question 1 is above Question 2.
这很重要,因为......假设你们找到了第二题的答案,那很有可能第一题的答案就在第二题答案上面的内容里。
So it's very important that questions often, not always, but often follow passage order.
所以知道题目通常,不是一直这样,但通常会按照文章顺序排布很重要。
This can help you find answers for other questions.
这能帮助你们找到其他题目的答案。
My next tip for the reading is that it's very important to understand how paragraphs work.
我的下一个阅读技巧是,弄懂段落结构非常重要。
What do I mean by that? I mean understanding specifically topic sentences.
这么说是什么意思?我的意思是要具体理解主题句。
There are a lot of questions in the IELTS, the reading module, where if you know what a topic sentence is,
雅思考试的阅读部分有很多题目,如果你们知道主题句是什么的话,
it can help you find things a lot quicker, a lot easier.
它就能帮助你们更快更容易地找到信息。
So what is the topic sentence?
那么主题句是什么呢?
For every paragraph, there's usually one sentence that almost sums up the paragraph, it's the main idea of the paragraph.
每一段通常都有一句话几乎总结了整个段落的内容,它包含了整段的主要思想。
Where do you find the topic sentence?
在哪里能找到主题句呢?
Not always, but usually, it's the first sentence, or it's at the beginning somewhere in the paragraph.
不是一直如此,但是通常是第一句话,或者在每段开头的某个位置。
So this is a very good tip, especially for paragraph heading and matching questions.
这一个技巧非常好,尤其是在给段落定标题和配对题目中。
By understanding what a topic sentence is and where to find it, you will save a lot of time.
弄懂了主题句是什么并且知道该去哪里找到它,你们就能节省很多时间。
