SAT阅读技巧：排除法的妙用
<p> 排除法是在做选择题的过程中比较常用的一种方法，排查选项的时候，利用逆向思维，将和题目要求不一致的选项逐一排除，正确答案便会浮出水面。同样，同学们在做<span word="SAT">SAT</span>阅读的选择题的时候，如果使用一下排除法，你会发现阅读并不是传说中的那么难。</p><p> 我们给<span word="SAT">SAT</span>阅读中的排除法下个定义：同样，也是利用逆向思维，如果你发现某个选项和相应的文章内容没有关系，或者说文章的作者根本就没有提到这个选项所叙述的内容，排除之。先来看个例题，</p><p> 原文<span word="Caroline">Caroline</span> <span word="Yip">Yip</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="Marcella">Marcella</span> <span word="Ahn">Ahn</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="history">history</span>. <span word="They">They</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="both">both</span> <span word="lived">lived</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="Cambridge">Cambridge</span>, <span word="Massachusetts">Massachusetts</span>, <span word="in">in</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="twenties">twenties</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="several">several</span> <span word="years">years</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="been">been</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="best">best</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="friends">friends</span> --- <span word="inseparable">inseparable</span>, <span word="really">really</span>.</p><p> <span word="According">According</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="passage">passage</span>, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="word">word</span> <span word="history">history</span> <span word="refers">refers</span> <span word="to">to</span></p><p> <span word="chronological">chronological</span> <span word="record">record</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="actual">actual</span> <span word="occurrences">occurrences</span></p><p> <span word="long">long</span>-<span word="standing">standing</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="noteworthy">noteworthy</span> <span word="relationship">relationship</span></p><p> <span word="formal">formal</span> <span word="written">written</span> <span word="account">account</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="an">an</span> <span word="incident">incident</span></p><p> <span word="branch">branch</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="knowledge">knowledge</span> <span word="focused">focused</span> <span word="on">on</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="past">past</span></p><p> <span word="creative">creative</span> <span word="work">work</span> <span word="based">based</span> <span word="on">on</span> <span word="historical">historical</span> <span word="events">events</span> （选自2006年5月<span word="SAT">SAT</span>真题）</p><p> 这个题问我们原文提到的<span word="history">history</span>指的是什么？读一下原文相关的内容：<span word="Caroline">Caroline</span> <span word="Yip">Yip</span>和<span word="Marcella">Marcella</span> <span word="Ahn">Ahn</span>是有一段历史的。她们20多岁的时候都住在麻省的<span word="Cambridge">Cambridge</span>，多年以来他们都是最要好的朋友，说实在的，是分不开的好朋友。核心意思就是在叙述两个人之间的亲密。然后我们排查选项，注意！和这两句话的意思无关的选项立刻排除。选项<span word="A">A</span>，<span word="chronological">chronological</span> <span word="record">record</span>的意思是按年代的记录，显然和原文无关，排除；选项<span word="B">B</span>，我们会立刻将目光集中到<span word="relationship">relationship</span>这个词上，关系 ，朋友该选项有点感觉；再看选项<span word="C">C</span>，<span word="written">written</span> <span word="account">account</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="an">an</span> <span word="incident">incident</span>和朋友没有直接的关系，排除；选项<span word="D">D</span>，<span word="branch">branch</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="knowledge">knowledge</span>和朋友也没有什么关系吧，排除；选项<span word="E">E</span>，<span word="historical">historical</span> <span word="events">events</span>又是从何而来呢，不就是两个人嘛，和历史有什么关系呢？也排除。这样分析下来，选项<span word="B">B</span>就是正确答案。</p>
