雅思阅读常用的四类隐性形定位词

对于很多雅思备考的同学而言，往往忽视寻找隐性定位词这个问题。其实如果考生能够有效准确的找到隐性定位词，不仅能够提高阅读速度，还能保证正确率。因此，今天就为大家带来总结一些常用的隐性定位词。 

一、隐性定位词中Proportion=%.

通常，在我们审题的时候，会发现每个问题的选项都有特定的信号词出现，例如下面的问题中，我们可以明显看到问题6中出现的proportion，因此我们在选择相对的答案的时候，可以找找文中有没有相对应百分比的对照。然后首先看看这些百分比内容的匹配性，因此像这种隐形定位词能够有效提高我们做题的速度。

Question 1-6

Reading Passage 1has nine sections, A-l.

Which sectioncontains the following information?

Write the correctletter, A-l, in boxes 1-6 on your answer sheet.

6. The estimatedproportion of children in New Zealand with auditory problems

对应原文：

The Impact ofHearing Loss on Young Children

A. Hearingimpairment or other auditory function deficit in young children can have amajor impact on their development of speech and communication, resulting in adetrimental effect on their ability to lean at school. This is likely to havemajor consequences for the individual and the population as a whole. The New ZealandMinistry of Health has found from research carried out over two decades that6-10% of children in that country are affected by hearing loss.

因此第6题选A

二、Payment，通常可以用货币符号表示。

在下面的例子中，我们可以从问题中找到关于payment这个隐性定位词。从字面可以知道payment是账单的意思，就是关于金钱，或者货币符号的形式出现。所以考生可以根据相关线索优先分析这类选项。

Question 8-13

Do the followingstatements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 1?

In boxes 8-J3 onyour answer sheet, write

TRUE：If thestatement agrees with the information

FALSE：If thestatement contradicts the information

NOT GIVEN：If there isno information on this

12. Johnson onlyreceived payment for his Dictionary on its completion.

对应原文：

Johnson signed thecontract for the Dictionary with the bookseller Robert Dosley at a breakfastheld at the Golden Anchor Inn near Holborn Bar on 18 June 1764. He was to bepaid? 1,575 in instalments, and from this he took money to rent 17 GoughSquare, in which he set up his 'dictionary workshop'. James Boswell, hisbiographer, described the garret where Johnson worked as 'fitted up like acounting house' with a long desk running down the middle at which the copyingclerks would work standing up.

原文说的是分期ininstallments，而题干说的是only...completion，因此是False。

三、隐性定位词Earlier=time.

如果出现这种描述时间的隐性信号词，那么选项若出现时间的形式可以优先查看。例如下文出现earlier，字面意思表示很早，表时间的，那么选项看看有没有表时间的。这样能大大提高做题速度。

Question 27-29

Reading Passage 3has eight paragraphs A-H.

Which paragraphcontains the following information?

Write the correctletter, A-H, in boxes 27-29 on your answer sheet.

27. Mention of ageo-engineering project based on an earlier natural phenomenon

对应原文：

D.The concept ofreleasing aerosol sprays into the stratosphere above the Arctic has beenproposed by several scientists. This would involve using sculpture or hydrogensupplied aerosols so that sculpture dioxide would form clouds, which would, inturn, lead to a global dimming. The idea is modelled on historic volcanicexplosions, such as that of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991, whichled to a short-term cooling of global temperatures by 0.5℃.Scientistshave also scrutinized whether it's possible to preserve the ice sheets ofGreenland with reinforced high-tension cables, preventing icebergs from movinginto the sea.

原文出现时间的地方描述historicvolcanic explosions, such as that of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines，such as举例子，historicvolcanic explosions对应natural phenomenon，因此选D.

四、雅思阅读隐性定位词中Refer to as= proper nouns.

当我们遇到像refer to as，这种表示要解释一个现象，一个单词意思的隐性信号词的时候。在选看选项的时候可以优先看那些专有名词的选项，换句话说就是选项有某个单词不熟悉，然后出现频率高的名词。通过下面的例子，我们可以看出：

Question 34-40

Complete thesentences.

Choose NO MORETHAN THREE WORDS from the passage for each answer.

Write your answersin boxes 34-40 on your answer sheet.

35. Plants whichdo not respond to light levels are referred to as.

对应原文：

For example, somespecies of birds' breeding can be induced even in midwinter simply byincreasing day length artificially (Wolfson 1964). Other examples ofphotoperiodic occur in plants. A short-day plant flowers when the day is lessthan a certain critical length. A long-day plant flowers after a certaincritical day length is exceeded. In both cases the critical day length differsfrom species to species. Plants which flower after a period of vegetativegrowth, regardless of photoperiod, are known as day-neutral plants.

回原文寻读，找到day-neutralplants是以斜体形式出现，且前面有限定are known as，可以确定是专有名词，do not respond to light levels对应regardless ofphotoperiod，所以填day-neutral plants.
