1、托福阅读：插入句子题解题技巧考察能力1、相关语句和词汇的理解2、对于语段中的逻辑顺序的把握题目特征Lookatthefoursquares[■]thatindicatewherethefollowingsentencecouldbeaddedtothepassage.(Youwillseeasentenceinbold)Wherewouldthesentencebestfit?Clickona[■]toaddthesentencetothepassage.Question：在托福阅读中，为什么不论插入题出现在文章的那个位置，这种题都位于总结题之前,存在于倒数第二题的位置呢?ETS是一
2、个很人性化的机构,如果这类题出现在前几道题的位置,选错了会对文章的理解造成影响,影响做其它题。插入的句子对文章本身的影响有多大？和几句话相关？如果和前后两句话都相关,是不是把它拿掉了,就会对文章有较大的影响？只需要找出待插入的句子跟前后某一句话的逻辑联系即可。英语句子间的衔接手法(cohesive devices)该题型重点考查英文句子间的逻辑语义关系，即英文中句子与句子是如何衔接在一起的。Cohesivedevices1. 代词(Pronouns) 具体包括人称代词、指示代词和关系代词等（personal,demonstrative,relative,etc）。在上下句的关联中，代

6、 useful in other parts of their lives. (重复话题词)Before choosing a public or private school for their children, parents should take into account the cost. The price of a private school is usually much higher than that of a public school. (话题词同义改写)Cohesivedevices4.过渡性词和词组(Transitional phrases/trans
7、itional adverbs)上面讲到的三种句间关系属于隐性关系。隐性关系通过上下句的语义关系体现。现在，我们要讲的是句子间的显性关系，即通过明显的逻辑连词或副词来体现句间关系。这些显性关系词包括以下类别。4.1时间关系then, next, later, finally, etc.4.2因果关系therefore, consequently, as a result, etc.4.3转折关系however, but, yet, nevertheless
