智课网TOEFL备考资料不要带着感情做托福阅读题 摘要： 不要带着感情做托福阅读题，在新托福考试中，很多考生最容易忽略的就是阅读，因为在跟各种英语考试的过招中，绝大部分人会感觉阅读是自己的强项。然而这种认知不一定准确。不少这样的学生，自认阅读不错，实际考出来的分数只有22分左右，甚至会更低。ETS对阅读高水平(High level)的评定标准是22—30分。而事实上，阅读如果达不到25分以上，总分想要过百会比较困难，因为这相当于把挣分的压力转移到了大部分人比较弱的听力、口语、写作上面。由此可见，阅读取得高分对于获得百分以上的托福成绩是一种保证! 那么为什么很多自认为阅读不错的考生不一定能在这一部分熠熠生辉呢? 这是因为新 托福 阅读考试存在一些绊马索。 绊马索一：无方向中隐藏方向。 新托福 阅读考试中绝大部分题目都是对应具体段落的，这会为考生节省很多时间。但是也不排除有少量题目的范围比较大或比较模糊，考生在寻找答案时难免一头雾水，费时费力。其实这些看似没有明确定位方向的题目都是暗藏玄机的。下面我们就来看一个例子： Wind power has a significant cost advantage over nuclear power and has becomecompetitive with coal-fired power plants in many places. With new technological advances andmass production, projected cost declines should make wind power one of the worlds cheapestways to produce electricity. In the long run, electricity from large wind farms in remote areasmight be used to make hydrogen gas from water during periods when there is less than peakdemand for electricity. The hydrogen gas could then be fed into a storage system and used togenerate electricity when additional or backup power is needed. Wind power is most economical in areas with steady winds. In areas where the wind diesdown, backup electricity from a utility company or from an energy storage system becomesnecessary. Backup power could also be provided by linking wind farms with a solar cell, withconventional or pumped-storage hydropower, or with efficient natural-gas-burning turbines.Some drawbacks to wind farms include visual pollution and noise, although these can beovercome by improving their design and locating them in isolated areas. Based on the information in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4, what can be inferred about thestates of North Dakota, South Dakota, and Texas mentioned at the end of paragraph 1? A.They rely largely on coal-fired power plants. B.They contain remote areas where the winds rarely die down. C.Over 1 percent of the electricity in these states is produced by wind farms. D.Wind farms in these states a
