智 课 网 托 福 备 考 资 料 托福阅读找重点要通过题目练习 托福阅读其实大家都知道托福阅读文章重点在于那些关键词句上， 但是做起托福阅读试题后要想能准确地发现它们也并非易事，具体该怎 么做呢? 要读懂一个段落我们只需要抓住几个关键词而已。那么关键词怎么 抓呢?一是看逻辑信号词;二是读句子的时候一定牢记只看主干!下面我们 就以TPO25中的托福阅读文章The Decline of Venetian Shipping为例，说说如何巧抓关键词。 TPO25-2 The Decline of Venetian Shipping： Paragraph 2 This decline can be seen clearly in the changes that affected Venetian shipping and trade. First， Venic’s intermediary functions in the Adriatic Sea， where it had dominated the business of shipping for other parties， were lost to direct trading. In the fifteenth century there was little problem recruiting sailors to row the galleys (large ships propelled by oars)： guilds (business associations) were required to provide rowers， and through a draft system free citizens served compulsorily when called for. In the early sixteenth century the shortage of rowers was not serious because the demand for galleys was limited by a move to round ships (round-hulled ships with more cargo space)， with required fewer rowers. But the shortage of crews proved to be a greater and greater problem， despite continuous appeal to Venic’s tradition of maritime greatness. Even though sailors’ wages doubled among the northern Italian cities from 1550 to 1590， this did not elicit an increased supply. 以上算得上是托福阅读中较长的段落了，在快速阅读这个段落的时 候我们要找的关键词是：逻辑信号词—如段落中所标示的first， but， this… 我们不难发现这些信号词所在的句子基本都是解题的信息点。那 么在做题定位时不妨多加留意。当然，抓住这些关键词并不难，难在理 解。 接下来我们就来看看理解这些句子时的关键词。每段话的首句是必 定要读的。This decline can be seen clearly in the changes that affected Venetian shipping and trade。这是包含了一个定语从句的 复杂句。先看到核心词changes，再看到Venetian shipping and trad e。这篇文章接下来具体要写的内容就展露无遗 ，也就是威尼斯船业和 贸易的变迁。 First，这当然是开始写shipping的标志了。Venice’s intermediary functions in the Adriatic Sea， where it had dominated the business of shipping for other parties， were lost to direct trading. 我们一直强调句子要读主干，那么简单地看这个句子就是Venice’s functions were lost， 核心词很显然是lost，也对应了整篇文章的主题 decline. 接下来两句写到了1
