南京国际加试真题| 第二期:结合语境，词意解析无压力！

　　每周南京国际加试“0”距离将为各位考生进行加试真题的分享和讲解，沉淀积累定能突破加试!欢迎各位关注专栏，定期阅读哦～

　　本期Viviana老师带你走进国际加试的“读”，畅聊国际学校加试中的阅读理解。

　　01国际班加试英语阅读考什么?

　　加试阅读部分一般会出现2-4篇文章，每篇文章的篇幅大约在230-700个词左右，考察的词汇量在4500个左右，文章可长可短，难度一般是递增的，包含50个语法点。

　　常见的题型包括细节题、主旨大意题、判断题、结合语境理解词义题、语句转述题、修辞目的题、完成句子题等(部分学校如南外本部还会出现指示代词的考察和选择合适句子填入文章等题型)。这些题型不仅考查考生对于文章细节的理解和把握，也会考查学生对信息的概括归纳能力。

　　02加试阅读词汇如何考察?

　　考点回顾：Section C1这篇主要介绍了一只经过驯化的狮子Paddy, the Elkington lion in East Africa，不受物理环境的束缚也不会离开的事情，并在文章最后告诉了我们一个发人深省的道理：任何违反自然规律的东西都是不可信的。

　　学生反映这篇文章难度与平时训练的南外加试复习卷难度相似，为全国高考难度，完成时间约为10分钟以内，新航道的学员们平时练习的难度高于本次加试的难度，所以考试的时候感觉相对较为轻松。

　　词汇点睛

　　tame

　　adj.

　　①A tame animal or bird is one that is not afraid of humans.

　　②If you say that something or someone is tame, you are criticizing them for being weak and uninteresting, rather than forceful or shocking.

　　v.

　　①If someone tames a wild animal or bird, they train it not to be afraid of humans and to do what they say.

　　②If you tame someone or something that is dangerous, uncontrolled, or likely to cause trouble, you bring them under control.

　　tamely adv.

　　tameness n.

　　barrier n.

　　an object like a fence that prevents people from moving forward from one place to another;

　　a problem, rule or situation that prevents sb. from doing sth., or that makes sth. impossible.

　　Synonym: block, obstacle, obstruction, hindrance…

　　fraternity n.

　　Fraternity refers to friendship and support between people who feel they are closely linked to each other.

　　You can refer to people who have the same profession or the same interests as a particular fraternity.

　　obscure adj.

　　If something or someone is obscure, they are unknown, or are known by only a few people.

　　Ok现在咱们来瞧瞧这题阅读理解：

　　"He was deaf to the call of the wild." What does this mean?

　　A. Paddy had a problem with his hearing.

　　B. Paddy was not interested in leaving his home.

　　C. Paddy was not a wild animal.

　　D. Paddy called to the plains lions by roaring.

　　答案：C

　　解析：题目问的是该段最后一句的含义。这句的前面一句很明确地告诉我们Paddy是一只tame(驯服的)狮子，因此它不是一只野外的狮子，C符合文意。

　　这里还有道词义辨析题，

　　The origins of nest-building remain obscure, but current observations of nest-building activities provide evidence of their evolution. Clues to this evolutionary process can be found in the activities of play and in the behavior and movements of birds during mating, such as incessant pulling at strips of vegetation or scraping of the soil…

　　The word "obscure" in line 1 is closest in meaning to

　　A.interesting

　　B.unclear

　　C.imperfect

　　D.complex

　　答案：B

　　解析：obscure所在句的意思是“筑巢的起源仍不____，但目前对筑巢活动的观察提供了它们进化的证据。”既然前后半句是转折关系，说明前后意思相反。后半句提供的关键信息是“有证据”，那么前半句的意思应该是“还没证据”，所以“起源”不明，选B。

　　综上不难发现，阅读理解中的词汇辨析常常实质上考察的是结合上下文理解核心词汇的含义。

　　小伙伴们平时积累词汇的时候不仅要留心常考词汇，将同一词根的不同词性的词整合记忆，一网打尽之外，还要善于捕捉上下文提供的关键信息，不用死记海量词汇!更多有关国际学校和国际留学的资讯，可以咨询新航道在线客服。
