除此以外,OG對于新托??荚囬喿x題型的呈現(xiàn)方法也與真實考試有一定距離,如:
??????
一.細節(jié)題的閱讀跨度:OG中大多數(shù)題目只考一段,但是實際考試會有一道題目考2段、甚至是3段的情況。比如《GROUNDWATER》這篇文章的第10題:
??????
10. According to paragraphs 6 and 7, why is basalt unlike most crystalline forms of rock?
??????
It is unusually solid
??????
It often has high porosity.
??????
It has a low proportion of empty space.
??????
It is highly permeable.
??????
二.句子改寫題的句子復雜性:真實考題比OG中的句子改寫題要長很多,而且邏輯關系也更復雜。
??????
三.指代題:OG指代題考得不少,真實考試指代題考得很少。
?????
四.選項長度:真題的選項長度長很多。
??????
五.細節(jié)題題干關鍵字沒有在原文直接給出。這讓考生定位細節(jié)難度大幅度增加。不過說句公道話,其實在老托??荚嚲鸵呀?jīng)這樣了,并不是在新托??荚囍歇氂械摹1热纭禗epletion of the Ogallala Aquifer》這篇文章的第11題。
??????
11.Paragraph 5 mentions which of the following as a source of difficulty for some farmers who try to conserve water?
??????
Crops that do not need much water are difficult to grow in the High Plains.
??????
Farmers who grow crops that need a lot of water make higher profits.
??????
Irrigating less frequently often leads to crop failure.
??????
Few farmers are convinced that the aquifer will eventually run dry.
??????
六. 文章的復雜程度:這個也不用說了,OG的文章結(jié)構(gòu)性非常明顯,就好像看CCAV的新聞聯(lián)播一樣;真實考試的文章結(jié)構(gòu)糾結(jié)多了,就好像看本屆世界杯一樣。比如:《The Long-Term Stability of Ecosystems》和《Colonizing the Americas via the Northwest Coast》這兩篇文章。
?????
新托福閱讀部分其實并不存在真的所謂“新題型”,這些題型也是有規(guī)律可循的,考生們在備考時多加注意就沒什么值得害怕的。
