託福閱讀長難句分析方法
託福閱讀的難點之一就是長難句，能否快速分析出長難句是託福閱讀提升做題速度的關鍵。接下來，一起來看看小編爲大家帶來的託福閱讀長難句分析方法彙總。
託福閱讀長難句分析方法彙總
一.託福閱讀長難句分析方法之同位語
所謂同位語，顧名思義，就是起重複性解釋作用的成分。在託福閱讀中遇到同位語最佳的處理方法就是刪除同位語，從而更好地理解。關於同位語的識別，一般都是以A, B的形式出現，例如，the president of USA, Trump，關於刪除方法，則以保留最簡單的表達爲刪除原則。
二.託福閱讀長難句分析方法之插入語
所謂插入語就是不影響句子含義和結構的插入成分。常見的插入語有that is, that is to say, what’s more, to tell you the truth, frankly speaking等，處理插入語的最佳辦法就是刪除。
三.託福閱讀長難句分析方法之定語
定語的“定”主要指限定，形容詞、名詞、介詞短語等都可以作定語，來修飾、限定名詞。
英語中也可以用一個句子來修飾、限定一個名詞(或者名詞詞組、句子)，這樣的句子叫做定語從句。被修飾的名詞(詞組、句子)叫做先行詞，連接定語從句和主句的叫做關係詞，即that。關係詞分爲兩類，關係代詞(that which who whom whose)和關係副詞(when where why)，關係詞在從句中起三個作用——指代前面先行詞，連接從句和主句，在定語從句中作成分。
前置定語的識別：adj. + n. (比較容易判斷)
後置定語的識別：形容詞短語(adj. + prep. + n./prep.)
e.g. A book useful for your management
一本有助你進行管理的書。
介詞短語(prep. + n./pron.)
分詞短語(ving/ved + prep. + n./pron.)
e.g. A person walking on the road.
動詞不定式(to do sth.)
e.g. A way to solve the problem.
表語形容詞(alike, alive, alone)
注：不定代詞只能用後置定語修飾
四.託福閱讀長難句分析方法之狀語
首先需要強調的是狀語修飾非名詞，狀語的位置比較隨意。可以充當狀語的成分比較多，有副詞，e.g. He secretly decided to leave the room.
介詞短語e.g. We have friends all over the world.
不定式(短語)I went there to see my grandmother.
分詞(短語)現在分詞e.g. Being a poor teacher, he can’t afford to buy a car.
過去分詞e.g. He entered, accompanied by his son.
形容詞e.g. He said nothing but sat silent smoking.
詞組e.g. I shall stay another five months.
複合結構e.g. It being a holiday, the library isn’t open.
從句e.g. Next time you come in, please close the door.
有的時候名詞也可以作狀語e.g. We’ve been waiting hours waiting for you.
加快託福閱讀速度的四步驟 首段第一句很重要
快速的技巧在於每一段的第一句。想想，考試中的每篇文章都是經過千錘百煉的，而好的文章都有一個很好的思路，這種思路經常體現在文章段落的第一句。所以，從理論上來說，你只需閱讀文章每個段落的第一句，而不必顧及段落的其他內容。既然，考試不以你對文章的理解計分(而是以你答案對錯計分)，你沒有理由去關注那些對你答題沒有幫助的內容。
只讀文章段落中的第一句，你就可以對作者的思路有一個大致的把握。這樣可以幫你節約時間，而將更多的時間花在回答問題上。
攻克的4步法
前面我們告訴你如何處理閱讀理解文章的6個策略和閱讀理解的3種題型，現在我們告訴你在做閱讀題時該如何運用這些策略和技巧：
1、解剖文章的第1段;
2、在腦子裏面形成一個作者思路圖;
3、停下來，總結一下文章大意;
4、開始答題。
解剖文章的第1段
積極主動地解讀文章的第1段，時儘量記住作者提出的問題(現象或觀點)，和一些與文章內容相關的概念和詞彙，如這篇文章講的是印第安人風俗，光電子顯像鏡還是諷刺文學。文章的論題是什麼，作者想說什麼?
在腦子裏面形成一個作者思路圖
在腦子裏或者在草稿紙上畫一個文章的結構思路題。各個段落的目的是什麼，主題又是什麼?再次提醒，TOEFL考察的是你的答題能力而非閱讀能力。你不必完全掌握整篇文章，瞭解文章中的每一個細節。(其實，你也沒有那麼多時間)。相反，你應該只讀文章段落的第1句，而快速瀏覽其餘部分。當你“讀”完這篇文章時，你就能對文章的結構思路有總體的把握。
停下來，總結一下文章大意
在回答問題前，花幾秒鐘總結一下文章的思路和主題。
開始答題
根據你對文章的整體思路來答題。將問題(或選項)定位到文章中具體的某個段落甚至具體的句子。這裏，你可以比第2個步驟更仔細。
託福閱讀真題1
The most thoroughly studied cases of deception strategies employed by ground-nesting birds involve plovers, small birds that typically nest on beaches or in open fields, their nests merely scrapes in the sand or earth. Plovers also have an effective repertoire of tricks for distracting potential nest predators from their exposed and defenseless eggs or chicks.
The ever-watchful plover can detect a possible threat at a considerable distance. When she does, the nesting bird moves inconspicuously off the nest to a spot well away from eggs or chicks. At this point she may use one of several ploys. One technique involves first moving quietly toward an approaching animal and then setting off noisily through the grass or brush in a low, crouching run away from the nest, while emitting rodent like squeaks. The effect mimics a scurrying mouse or vole, and the behavior rivets the attention of the type of predators that would also be interested in eggs and chicks.
Another deception begins with quiet movement to an exposed and visible location well away from the nest. Once there, the bird pretends to incubate a brood. When the predator approaches, the parent flees, leaving the false nest to be searched. The direction in which the plover escapes is such that if the predator chooses to follow, it will be led still further away from the true nest.
The plover's most famous stratagem is the broken-wing display, actually a continuum of injury-mimicking behaviors spanning the range from slight disability to near-complete helplessness. One or both wings are held in an abnormal position, suggesting injury. The bird appears to be attempting escape along an irregular route that indicates panic. In the most extreme version of the display, the bird flaps one wing in an apparent attempt to take to the air, flops over helplessly, struggles back to its feet, runs away a short distance, seemingly attempts once more to take off, flops over again as the useless wing fails to provide any lift, and so on. Few predators fail to pursue such obviously vulnerable prey. Needless to say, each short run between flight attempts is directed away from the nest.

託福閱讀真題2
What unusual or unique biological trait led to the remarkable diversification and unchallenged success of the ants for ever 50 million years? The answer appears to be that they were the first group of predatory eusocial insects that both lived and foraged primarily in the soil and in rotting vegetation on the ground. Eusocial refers to a form of insect society characterized by specialization of tasks and cooperative care of the young; it is rare among insects. Richly organized colonies of the land made possible by eusociality enjoy several key advantages over solitary individuals.
Under most circumstances groups of workers are better able to forage for food and defend the nest, because they can switch from individual to group response and back again swiftly and according to need. When a food object or nest intruder is too large for one individual to handle, nestmates can be quickly assembled by alarm or recruitment signals. Equally important is the fact that the execution of multiple-step tasks is accomplished in a series-parallel sequence. That is, individual ants can specialize in particular steps, moving from one object (such as a larva to be fed) to another (a second larva to be fed). They do not need to carry each task to completion from start to finish — for example, to check the larva first, then collect the food, then feed the larva. Hence, if each link in the chain has many workers in attendance, a series directed at any particular object is less likely to fail. Moreover, ants specializing in particular labor categories typically constitute a caste specialized by age or body form or both. There has been some documentation of the superiority in performance and net energetic yield of various castes for their modal tasks, although careful experimental studies are still relatively few.
What makes ants unusual in the company of eusocial insects is the fact that they are the only eusocial predators (predators are animals that capture and feed on other animals) occupying the soil and ground litter. The eusocial termites live in the same places as ants and also have wingless workers, but they feed almost exclusively on dead vegetation.
1. Which of the following questions does the passage primarily answer?
(A) How do individual ants adapt to specialized tasks?
(B) What are the differences between social and solitary insects?
(C) Why are ants predators?
(D) Why have ants been able to thrive for such a long time?
2. The word unique in line 1 is closest in meaning to
(A) inherited
(B) habitual
(C) singular
(D) natural
3. The word rotting in line 4 is closest in meaning to
(A) decaying
(B) collected
(C) expanding
(D) cultivated
4. The word key in line 7 is closest in meaning to
(A) uncommon
(B) important
(C) incidental
(D) temporary
5. According to the passage , one thing eusocial insects can do is rapidly switch from
(A) one type of food consumption to another
(B) one environment to another
(C) a solitary task to a group task
(D) a defensive to an offensive stance
6. The task of feeding larvae is mentioned in the passage to demonstrate
(A) the advantages of specialization
(B) the type of food that larvae are fed
(C) the ways ant colonies train their young for adult tasks
(D) the different stages of ant development
