必须承认,有时也会有非常细致的问题问到复杂的词汇。同样,出题者也会手下留情。这类问题最好举例来说明。在以下的片断中我们读到:
The genetic inheritance a baby receives from its parents at the moment of conception fixes much of its later development, determining characteristics as varied as whether it will have blue eyes or suffer from a life-threatening illness such as cystic fibrosisIn 1986, American researchers identified the genetic defect underlying one type of muscular dystrophy. In 1989, a team of American and Canadian biologists announced that they had found the site of the gene which, when defective, gives rise to cystic fibrosis.
如果我们被要求完成下面的句子:
The second success of researchsintosgenetic defect was to find the cause of
如上面文章中所说的,句中缺失的词是cystic fibrosis。尽管我们可能根本不知道 cystic fibrosis是什么,我们也根本不需要知道。需要我们做的只是理解它前后的词。将它当作数学题中的x变量即可。知道它与前后文怎样连接就足够了。
出题者绝不会这样问:Why is cystic fibrosis a genetic defect?这样的问法就会要求我们掌握这个词。相反,雅思考试是要考查我们联系上下文理解事物的能力。一旦我们了解了这一点,看到生词就再也不会紧张了。
