备战08英语四六级考试:细节决定高分
mistakes, a remarkably high number.
(CET-4 2000.6),在这么一句话里,主要成分是referee made mistakes, 而23 mistakes是一个很高的数字,究竟有多高,remarkably在这里修饰了high, 表明了高到了什么样的程度。我们知道remarkably是表示不寻常地,显著地意思;所谓不寻常,也就代表着按照人们的正常思维和想法是不可能想到的。因此,在该篇文章的第二题中:
The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was ____.
A. slightly above average
B. higher than in the 1998 World Cup
C. Quite unexpected
D. As high as in a standard match
可以通过这个表示“不寻常地” 的remarkably的分析,得出正确选项, quite unexpected.
另在CET-4 2005.1的一篇文章中,In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. 这里我们可以看出,在日本的学前教育中,并没有强调学业理论指导,但是这里为什么要用surprisingly, 令人惊讶地,又是令谁惊讶呢?通过前文… many Americans are turning to Japan, a country of high academic achievement and economic success, for possible answers. However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find…这里我们可以看出,是令美国人惊讶了。美国人为什么会惊讶?在什么情况下会使人产生惊讶?如果事情按照正常的规律发生,会令人惊讶么?一般来说,只有结果和自己预期想象的不一样,才会令人就惊讶。本文我们可以看出美国人本想向日本人学习在学前教育方面对学业理论指导的,但是通过后句我们已经知道日本人在学前教育中,并没有强调学业理论指导。因此,在该篇文章的第一题中:
We learn form the first paragraph that many Americans believe ____.
A. Japanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parents.
B. Japan’s economic success is a result of its scientific achievements.
C. Japan’s preschool education emphasizes academic instruction.
D. Japan’s higher education is superior to theirs.
原本以为日本的学前教育强调学业理论指导,但是结果并不这样,因此产生了惊讶。只要大家留心surprisingly, 这道题是很容易能够选对的。
