雅思阅读如何掌握好定位能力!很多小伙伴在做雅思阅读练习题的时候都有这样的烦恼：定位不到原文?题目全都是关键词?凭感觉划一划?究竟怎么迈出雅思阅读的步呢?还在苦苦不知道怎么做定位的烤鸭就有福了哦，下面广州新航道小编为大家整理出关于如何掌握好定位能力的相关内容，大家可以get起来呀!

雅思阅读

首先定位词的特点是重复率低不易变。它主要分为两种：“人品词”和普通词。人品词顾名思义就是看到就该感到惊喜的特殊定位词，包括人名、地名、组织机构名、数字、特殊印刷体(斜体，引号等)。不过不可能所有的题目里面都包含人品大爆发的特殊定位词，所以在多数时间我们主要寻找的定位词依然是易识别不易变化的名词词性的定位词。

了解了定位词的主要分类后，我们来看看雅思当中的定位词回到原文当中对应的情况：划出的定位词是否在原文当中丝毫不变?实际上雅思阅读中的定位可以分为多种难度。

一星难度

题目划出的定位词在原文当中没有任何改变。

例如：In epigenetic process, chemicals influence the activity of our genes(C11T4P1). 定位词epigenetic process在原文中出现为：Epigenetic process are chemical reactions tied to neither nature nornurture but representing what researchers have called a ‘third component’.

二星难度

定位词在原文中有词性转变，这一点是很容易识别出来的。

例如：Monkeys were less likely to become diabetic (C6T3P3). 这句话当中的diabetic在原文中以名词形式出现: …and they have more normal blood glucose levels (pointing to a reduced risk for diabetes, which is marked by usually high blood glucose levels)

另一种是主被动的变化。

比如：...to allow snow to reflect radiation (C11T1P3) 在原文中的表述为: ...enable radiation to be reflected by snow.

三星难度

这种难度的定位词为者同/近义词转换的关系，比如说在看到image考鸭们需要联想到picture，motif等词。

例如：…the life expectancy of Earth(C9T1P2) 这句话中的life expectancy在原文出现为：...since the lifetime of a planet is several billion years.

其实同/近义词的替换考查的是大家平时的积累，也就是单词量的问题，虽然不能说雅思阅读只考查单词量，但是许多技巧和方法都是建立在一定的单词基础之上的。

四星难度

题目中一般会出现概括性的词，原文中是它的具体内容。这种替换在雅思考试中也很常见，通常会被称为“上下义”的替换。上义词是概括性词，下义词是它的具体表现。例如，武器如果是上义词的话，那么猎枪、大炮就是具体表现。

例如：...it would cut down on air pollution(C9T3P2)的air pollution在原文中的表述为: …reducing its carbon dioxide emissions.

上下义的替换，考查的实际上是一种思维意识，当考鸭们看到题目的概括性词的时候，需要想到原文可能出现的具体表现，从而有意识地去到原文找相应定位词;反之亦然，当原文中出现了具体内容的时候，也需要意识到这是题目定位词所在。

需要注意的是，并不是所有的名词都可以作为定位词。如果题目中的名词是全文大范围出现的文章主题词，以及抽象名词(如：result, opinion, idea, information, effect, trend, theory等)，这时我们就得退而求其次寻找句子当中的动词或者形容词。

要想在有限的时间内尽可能准确地完成题目，我们务必要掌握好定位能力、了解定位词会在原文出现的几种情况。一旦找到题目对应的位置，距离答案就不远了!对于做题时定位不到的情况，我们应该多总结、多思考、在做完题后一定要对比题目与原文，研究题目中的关键词在原文中的表现，思考的多了自然就能手到擒来。

2019年4月27日雅思大作文题目：应该保存哪些老建筑？利弊是什么？

Some people think that certain old buildings are more worth preserving than the other ones. Which types of old buildings should be preserved? Do you think that the advantages of preserving these old buildings outweigh the disadvantages?

解析&审题
本题的关键词是老建筑。这个话题在2017年12月4日出现过，问的是“为什么需要保护老建筑”。此外，2018年2月3日的考试也与本话题相关，问的是“应该保护老建筑还是应该建新房子和道路？”本次考试要求讨论的题目是“哪些老建筑需要保护以及保护老建筑的优劣势”。可见，这几次考试题目既有交叉之处，又各有侧重。

按照常规想法，我们一般会认为那些具有历史文化价值的老建筑应该保留下来，这既是我们历史文化的一部分，也可以作为旅游资源加以使用。但是有些老建筑可能已经对城市安全产生了影响，那就应该拆除重建。因此，原则上我们应该保留那些具有历史价值的老建筑，但也要根据具体情况决定是否应该保留它们。

以下是高分范文，大家可认真阅读，看老师是如何把以上思路落实到具体文字表达的。

老师笔记
It is important to maintain certain old buildings in view of their advantages to societies. Old buildings such as museums, palaces, religious constructions, and ancient structures and sites are a part of a nation’s history. Societies have long sought to protect and preserve these cultural heritage for considerations ranging from historical research to public education to tourist attractions and to the desire to reinforce a sense of national identity. People have only to cast their eyes on an old building to feel the presence of the past and the spirit of a place, as if it were the very reflection of history. In this respect, demolishing an old building of historic value is no different from destroying a piece of history.

鉴于某些旧建筑对社会的好处，对它们进行维护是很重要的。博物馆、宫殿、宗教建筑、古建筑和遗址等老建筑是一个国家历史的一部分。长期以来，社会一直在寻求保护和保存这些文化遗产，原因从历史研究到公共教育，再到旅游景点，再到增强民族认同感的愿望，不一而足。人们只需把目光投向一座古老的建筑，就可以感受到过去的存在和一个地方的精神，就好像它是历史的镜像。在这方面，拆除具有历史价值的旧建筑与摧毁一段历史并无不同。

解析

（1） 本段开门见山，回答题目中的个问题，提出那些对社会有好处的老建筑应该保存。随后列举这类老建筑，然后列举原因。

（2） In view of 鉴于；因为

（3） Cultural heritage 文化遗产

（4） Range from ... to... 从......到......的范围内

（5） Reinforce 强化；加强

（6） National identity 国家身份

（7） Demolish 拆除；推倒

Nevertheless, sometimes it is better to knock down certain types of old buildings that are less worth preserving. Although this might seem “morally” wrong, actually it is the right choice to do so. When a historic structure has become a threat to society, for example, having it removed can actually add more value to the area around it. In such cases, of course, the land cleared should be used beneficially for the progress of society. This change could attract property investors to that area that might have otherwise been avoided. Furthermore, it would often cost a lot more to restore a destroyed old building than to replace it with a new one.

然而，有时拆除某些不太值得保留的旧建筑会更好。虽然这看起来“道德上”是错误的，但实际上是正确的选择。例如，当一个历史建筑对社会构成威胁时，移除它实际上可以为它周围的地区增加更多的价值。当然，在这种情况下，被清理的土地应该被用来使之有利于社会进步。这一变化可能会吸引房地产投资者进入他们本来会避免的领域。此外，修复一座被摧毁的旧建筑通常要比用一座新建筑替换它花费更多。

解析

（1） 本段转换角度，讨论保存老建筑的弊端：对社会构成安全问题；阻止地方增值；花费巨大。

（2） Knock down 拆除

（3） Add value to... 为......增加价值

（4） Replace ... with... 用......来代替......

In the big picture of pros and cons, it should be made a legal rule to protect and preserve old buildings of historic value. But then, there should as well be a few exceptions to the rule.

在正反两面的局面中，应该制定法律规则来保护和保存具有历史价值的老建筑。但是，也应该允许规则之外存在一些例外。

解析

（1） 本段为结论，并重申自己的观点。

（2） Pros and cons 赞同和反对

（3） A few exceptions to the rule 规则的几个例外
