【5】C
【解析】
本文是说明文,关于如何保持远距离的友情,作者提出了一些建议。
【1】此题空前一句是“不要让距离使你疏远了朋友”;选项D意为:使用下面这些建议,可以与你的朋友保持亲密。“distance, keep you away friends”与选项D中“stay close with your friends”是反义词复现。下文是关于如何保持友情的几条建议。选项D是承上启下。故选D项。
【2】此段首句是“安排时间聊天”,也是本段的主题句。选项G意为:无论如何,你应该尽量找恰当的时间和你的朋友聊天。空前两句中都提到chat,选项G中chat是原词复现。故选G项。
【3】分析文章结构,所填空是该段的主题句。根据下文“My friends and I text each other about the small things”可知,“通过发短信等形式说一些小事情”是保持友谊的好方法。选项A意为:分享一些小事。故选A项。
【4】此题线索是代词指代和逻辑。选项E意为:它还可以帮助你更多地了解朋友。空前一句中“It allows you to…”, 选项E中“It can also help…”都有代词it , 都是指代Social media;选项E中also 表示递进关系,是进一步说明“社交媒体是保持远距离友谊的好方法”。故选E项。
【5】此段主题句是“一起度假”。选项C意为:为什么不和你的朋友计划一次旅行呢?“plan a trip 和”Vacation together”意思相关。故选C项。
七选五做题技巧
1. 略读文章抓大意
即以最快的速度跳跃式地浏览文章的大小标题、首段、每段的首句,以及表示句、段关系的连接性词语(如however, but等词后的内容) ,以了解文章的基本结构和内容大意。
如此篇文章可以跳跃式地浏览文章,会发现每一小段的首句就是该小段的主题句。
2. 重点阅读上下句
因为正确选项必定会与上下句之间语义衔接、逻辑通顺,解题时大多只看上句,或只看下句,就可基本确定答案。
如第1小题,空格处的上一句“不要让距离使你疏远了朋友” 选项D意为:使用下面这些建议,可以与你的朋友保持亲密。选项D是承上启下,从而确定选项。
3.标题结构。
如果考查段落标题,先看看其他标题的语言形式,同一文章中的几个段落小标题基本上是同一语言形式。如果其他标题是名词短语,该题答案也是名词短语;如果其他标题是祈使句,该题的答案也是祈使句。如:
如第3小题,空格处在段落的首句,观察其他每小段的首句,都是小标题,也就是此段的主题句,形式都是祈使句。因此,此空格处也是主题句,也应该是祈使句形式,可以帮助确定选项。
4. 词语复现显神功
上下文与主题相关的词语通常会以原词、同义词或近义词等形式在上下文中重复出现,这种现象叫词语复现。同一个词的重复出现叫原词复现;以同义词的形式重复出现,叫同义复现;以近义词或近义表达(意思相近,表达方式不同)的形式重复出现,叫近义复现;以词义相同而词性不同的形式重复出现,叫同根复现。还有上义词与下义词的复现(adult是teacher, parent的上义词,而teacher, parent就是adult的下义词)。
如第2小题此题线索是词汇复现, 空前两句中都提到chat,选项G中chat是原词复现,
可帮助确定选项。
值得注意的是,有的题利用词语复现解题十分管用,但这并不意味着凡与上句或下句有复现词的选项就一定是正确选项,只是正确的可能性更大,在解题过程中需重点考虑或优选考虑而已。是否为正确答案,还得将含复现词的选项代入原文,看该选项与上下文是否真的衔接,只有上下衔接紧密的才是正确选项。
5. 代词、逻辑亦管用
七选五就是考查上下文之间的衔接,而代词是语篇衔接的重要手段之一,故解题中要善于利用这一衔接手段。
如第4小题,空前一句中 的it选项E中的 it , 都是指代Social media;选项E中also 是逻辑线索,表示递进关系,可以帮助确定选项。
