在上一期公眾號(hào)文章中,我們向大家展示了因果關(guān)系的細(xì)節(jié)題,詳情可見(jiàn):《【考研英語(yǔ)二】搞定原因分析題,提升閱讀正確率!》今天我們對(duì)此知識(shí)點(diǎn)再做進(jìn)一步的劃分和講解。
邏輯關(guān)系
因果關(guān)系的題目中,有很直白清晰的邏輯關(guān)系,也有很隱晦的邏輯關(guān)系。如2010 Text 1的21題,這題就是比較直白清晰,because對(duì)應(yīng)文中的as。
21. In the first paragraph, Damien Hirst’s sale was referred to as “a last victory” because .
[A] the art market had witnessed a succession of victories
[B] the auctioneer finally got the two pieces at the highest bids
[C] Beautiful Inside My Head Forever won over all masterpieces
[D] it was successfully made just before the world financial crisis
涉及段落:
The longest bull run in a century of art-market history ended on a dramatic note with a sale of 56 works by Damien Hirst, Beautiful Inside My Head Forever, at Sotheby’s in London on September 15th 2008. All but two pieces sold fetching more than £70m, a record for a sale by a single artist. It was a last victory. As the auctioneer called out bids, in New York one of the oldest banks on Wall Street, Lehman Brothers, filed for bankruptcy.
解析:根據(jù)as這句話,答案很容易選出[D] it was successfully made just before the world financial crisis,文章中的bankruptcy對(duì)應(yīng)financial crisis。
那我們?cè)賮?lái)看一組隱晦的因果關(guān)系考察題,2013年40題:
40. Women entering top management become headlines due to the lack of .
[A] more social justice
[B] massive media attention
[C] suitable public policies
[D] greater “soft pressure”
涉及段落:
If appropriate public policies were in place to help all women——whether CEOs or their children’s caregivers——and all families, Sandberg would be no more newsworthy than any other highly capable person living in a more just society.
解析:題目中的due to對(duì)應(yīng)文章中的if條件句,if后面的信息就是due to所需要的,所以這道題的正確答案是[C] suitable public policies,如果不告訴大家,定位處是if這句話,大家很容易錯(cuò)選A這個(gè)選項(xiàng)。
接下來(lái)我們就給大家整理一些隱性的因果關(guān)系詞匯,以免大家在解題過(guò)程中感覺(jué)迷茫。

相關(guān)真題
這5組因果關(guān)系需要在相應(yīng)的練習(xí)題中遇到,大家才會(huì)記得住,所以在此給大家展示幾道相關(guān)真題。
2009年第55題:
Also, leadership is a slippery subject, and as he depicts various theories, even Mr. Nye never quite nails the jelly to the wall. He is at his most interesting point when discussing the moral aspects of leadership in particular, the question of whether it is sometimes necessary for good leaders to lie——and he provides a helpful 12-point summary of his conclusions. A recurring theme is that as circumstances change, different sorts of leaders are required; a leader who thrives in one environment may struggle in another, and vice versa. Ultimately that is just a fancy way of saying that leadership offers no easy answers.
55. According to the author, the most interesting part of Mr. Nye’s book lies in his .
[A] view of changeable leadership
[B] definition of good leadership
[C] summary of leadership history
[D] discussion of moral leadership
解析:題目中的lie in就相當(dāng)于because的邏輯關(guān)系,所以這也是一道因果細(xì)節(jié)題,在這題的定位處,出現(xiàn)一個(gè)when,這個(gè)when引導(dǎo)的從句就是和because一樣的邏輯關(guān)系,when后面的句子跟著discussing the moral aspects of leadership,那么對(duì)應(yīng)的選項(xiàng)就是[D] discussion of moral leadership。
2008年第43題:
This is not a primitive barter system. By creating currencies, the Internet removes a major barrier-what Bob Meyer, publisher of BarterNews, calls “the double coincidence of wants.” That is, two parties once not only had to find each other, but also an exchange of goods that both desired. Now, they can price the deal in virtual currency.
43. The Internet barter system relies heavily on .
[A] the size of barter sites
[B] the use of virtual currency
[C] the quality of goods or services
[D] the location of trading companies
解析:此題若是靠學(xué)生自己讀懂,自然能選出來(lái)virtual currency,但若是基礎(chǔ)一般的學(xué)生遇到此題,那就可以識(shí)別出rely on就是because的邏輯關(guān)系,文中的by......正好對(duì)應(yīng)because的邏輯關(guān)系,所以答案就不言而喻了,選擇[B] the use of virtual currency。
以上內(nèi)容,向大家展示了隱性的因果細(xì)節(jié)題,這種題目出題量不大,但若是遇到了,我們就要一定把它們做對(duì)哦~如果大家有任何疑問(wèn)或想法,也可以在評(píng)論區(qū)里留言哦~
