今天为大家介绍一种小托福考试真题阅读中理解文章的技巧——举例关系。举例关系就是用一个例子证明作者在文中的某个观点。下面澳际小编结合小托福试题的实例给大家做一个分析。

　　Memory is important for learning language skills. Education specialists in England want to help people improve their reading abilities. They want students to remember the books and articles they read. The specialists found something to help: facial expressions. They gave ten students a happy article to read. Five of the students read the happy article while smiling. Five students read the happy article while frowning. Then they answered comprehension questions. The smiling students remembered more of the happy article than the frowning students.

　　在这个小托福考试真题段落中我们发现作者用了科学家所做的一个实验作为例子，例子中提到五个学生在阅读令人开心的文章时笑着读，还有五个皱着眉读，结果那五个笑着读的学生理解得更好。我们在阅读这一段落时就应该牢牢地把握住例子所证明的观点，即例子之前的那句话：The specialists found something to help: facial expressions.在之后的题目中我们看到出现了下面的两道题，但是只要同学们能够把握好这个举例关系，这两道小托福试题的答案都能轻松解答。

　　6. Why does the speaker mention the two experiments made by the specialists? B

　　(A) To prove that memory is important for learning for learning language skills.

　　(B) To suggest that memory is closely related to facial expressions.

　　(C) To illustrate that smiling students have better memory than frowning students.

　　(D) To show that the specialists have already found the reason why facial expressions help memory.

　　这道题其实就在考察例子所证明的是什么观点，我们刚才已经提到，就在例子的前面一句话。

　　7.According to the passage, if you are reading a happy article, what kind of facial expression should you have? A

　　(A) Smiling face

　　(B) Frowning face

　　(C) Angry face

　　(D) No facial expression

　　这道题考察的其实还是同学们是否理解这个例子所证明的观点，所以只要我们把握住作者的观点，我们就能轻松选出答案A。

　　从上面这个例子来看，我们能够体会到举例关系对于理解全文和解题的重要性。希望同学们在之后做题以及阅读文章时更加注重对于举例关系的把握。

　　上面提到的就是用举例关系理解小托福试题阅读题的技巧，同学们如果能掌握就再好不过了，同学们可以多搜集一点小托福考试真题来练习一下，小编祝同学们在考试中交一个完美的答卷。
