  在線拆解托福閱讀細節題

  細節題是托福閱讀中除了詞匯題外出題量最多的題型，是考生備考的時候需要重點關注的主流題型。

  細節題在考察能力上相對來說比較簡單，就是考察同義替換的能力，考生需要分辨哪一個選項跟原文是在用不同的表達方式表達同一個意思，因此細節題也是所有考生都需要盡量得分的題型。

  正因為細節題考察的是同義替換的能力，考生在做題的時候就需要切記，不要開腦洞發散思維給自己加戲，一旦想得太多，最后正確率很可能涼涼。

  01、看到細節題我們應該做什么

  拿到細節題，我們要做的第一件事情是根據題干里的關鍵信息確認好對應的原文，接下去就是精讀原文對應的那句話，然后分析四個選項，看哪個選項是原文的同義替換。

  02、以TPO16 Passage1 Question1為例

  我們以TPO16 Passage1 Question1為例來具體看一下細節題的拆解過程：

  Paragraph 1: Trade was the mainstay of the urban economy in the Middle East, as caravans negotiated the surrounding desert, restricted only by access to water and by mountain ranges. This has been so since ancient times, partly due to the geology of the area, which is mostly limestone and sandstone, with few deposits of metallic ore and other useful materials. Ancient demands for obsidian (a black volcanic rock useful for making mirrors and tools) led to trade with Armenia to the north, while jade for cutting tools was brought from Turkistan, and the precious stone lapis lazuli was imported from Afghanistan. One can trace such expeditions back to ancient Sumeria, the earliest known Middle Eastern civilization. Records show merchant caravans and trading posts set up by the Sumerians in the surrounding mountains and deserts of Persia and Arabia, where they traded grain for raw materials, such as timber and stones, as well as for metals and gems.

  Q：According to paragraph 1, why has trade been so important throughout the history of the Middle East?

  A. The rare and valuable metals and stones found in Middle Eastern deserts have always been in high demand in surrounding areas.

  B. Growing conditions throughout the Middle East are generally poor, forcing Middle Eastern people to depend on imported grain.

  C. Many useful and decorative raw materials cannot be found naturally in the Middle East but are available from neighboring regions.

  D. Frequent travel, due to limited water supplies in the Middle East, created many opportunities for trade with neighboring societies.

  首先根據題干里的關鍵詞trade，the history of the Middle East找到對應的原文是第一句和第二句。

  又因為題目問的是 why，我們需要在原文找到對應的因果邏輯，原文的第二句話出現了因果關系邏輯詞due to，因此我們需要精讀的是第二句話。

  第二句話的意思是說“自從古代以來就是如此，部分是由于這個地區的地質，大部分是石灰石和砂巖，幾乎沒有金屬的礦藏和其他有用的材料”。

  A選項的意思是說在中東沙漠里找到的稀有、有價值的金屬和石頭在周邊地區有高的需求。和原文表達的意思相反，不選。

  B選項的意思是說整個中東生長的條件通常比較貧瘠，迫使中東人依賴進口的谷物。原文未提及，不選。

  C選項的意思是說很多有用以及裝飾性的材料不能夠在中東的自然里找到但是可以在鄰近地區獲得。和原文意思一致，正確答案是C。

  D選項的意思是說由于中東有限的水的供應，頻繁的出行創造了很多跟鄰近社會貿易的機會。原文未提及，不選。

  這就是細節題的拆解過程，記得做題關鍵：同義替換，勿加戲!
