四六级阅读长短句的窍门
时间：2018-12-12 作者：英语课 分类：大学四六级阅读
在切入正题之前，大家可以先看下面一道题目:
1×2×3×4×5×6×7×8×9×0×11×12=?我可以肯定有部分人能很快得出答案，而另一部分人则要算比较长的时间，问题在哪呢?我想就在与你是否有整体意识，看到一道题
目之前先不要急于去算，应先从整体上看一下题目有无规律可循。
如果把这个原理应用在阅读中就是准确快速得提取出句子的主干，这样不仅能加快阅读速度，而且能够准确的理解句子的意思.
举例：Under a system deployed 1 on the WhiteHouse Web site for the first time last time,those who want to send a message to PresidentBush must now navigate 2
as many as nine Web pages and fill out a detailed 3 form that starts by asking whether the message sender supports WhiteHouse policy or differs with it.
分析技巧如下：在长难句中象以介词短语开头的这部分可以先不理会，重要的是找出句子主的干，在这句话中可以提取主干为：Those people must now navigate nine Web
pages and fill out a detailed form.主干意思都能很容易理解，然后再把细节(比如定语)添加上。如果你看到这个句子后一个词接一个词的翻译，会大大影响理解的速度，可能
会出现读了很长时间但还是弄不清楚这个句子到底说的什么情况。另外象长句子中常见的诸如过去分词形式的词比如 deployed,detailed,这2个词虽然形式一样但是在句中的功能
却截然不同，deployed是过去分词做后置定语修饰system,而第二个detailed却是起着形容词的作用，即过去分词形式的形容词修饰form。我经过阅读大量的文章发现，象这种形式
的词在句子中一般就这2种作用：一是过去分词前无谓语动词，过去分词直接跟在名词后面，这种词起后置定语作用，二是过去分词位于名词之前，这种情况下就起着形容词的作用
所以以后在碰到这样的词不用发愁不知道它在句子中到底有什么用，只要按上面2种思路考虑，一般都能准确地判断出词在句子中的意思。
句子大意：因为上周白宫网站首次设置了一个网上系统，那些想发信息给总统的人们必须浏览多达至九个网页的内容，还要填一份详细的表格，而这个表格的第一个问题就是
信息发送者的白宫的政策是支持还是反对。
再看下面一个例子：DNA 4 analysis has been so successfully applied 5 in criminal investigations 6 that the media coverage 7 has left the public a strong
perception that DNA analysis is infallible.在理解这个句子时一定要抓住句子的核心so that句型，在这个句子中它引导结果状语从句，在口语中这个that可以省略。第二个
that则是引导名词性从句。
句子大意：DNA鉴定这种技术在犯罪调查中已经得到如此成功的运用，以至于媒体对它的报道使公众深信DNA鉴定是绝对可靠的。
另外留2个题目供大家参考练习(要求在最短的时间内找出句子的主干)：
