托福閱讀許多題目的選項都具有比較強的迷惑性和干擾性，讓很多本來就意志不太堅定的同學做出錯誤的理解和選擇。如何才能避免這類問題?大家需要做的是先了解選項設置的原理理清思路。下面小編就來為大家具體介紹。

托福閱讀選項設置原理簡介

ETS在設置選項時，會出現很多迷惑性的、看似與原文相似的信息;比如A、B選項實際都是原文本身不存在、卻被隨意推斷出來的信息，而這種選項一定錯;同時正確答案會與原文發生paraphrase, 中文俗稱“同義轉述”。

托福閱讀做題思路實例講解

既然思路已經明確了，那么我們看下面一道題目：

The numbers of deer have fluctuated markedly since the entry of Europeans into Puget Sound country. The early explorers and settlers told of abundant deer in the early 1800s and yet almost in the same breath bemoaned the lack of this succulent game animal. David Douglas, Scottish botanical explorer of the 1830s, found a disturbing change in the animal life around the fort during the period between his first visit in 1825 and his final contact with the fort in 1832. A recent Douglas biographer states:" The deer which once picturesquely dotted the meadows around the fort were gone [in 1832], hunted to extermination in order to protect the crops."

Q：According to the paragraph, how had Fort Vancouver changed by the time David Douglas returned in 1832?

A：The fort had become the headquarters for the Hudson's Bay Company.

B：Deer had begun populating the meadows around the fort.

C：Deer populations near the fort had been destroyed.

D：Crop yields in the area around the fort had decreased.

答案和思路分析

答案是C。

題目問FV地區有什么轉變，取自原文最后一句：鹿消失了，是為保護莊稼而獵殺殆盡。destroyed轉述原文的were gone。

我們觀察下D選項，“莊稼產量減少了”。會有同學開腦洞，難道不是因為莊稼要廢了，才去保護的嗎?所以也可以理解為莊稼的轉變?--不選的原理很簡單：原文沒明說，不能隨意推斷。

綜上所述，托福考生們在面對閱讀題時一定要記得忠實于原文，不亂猜不瞎猜更不能想太多，這次是做對托福閱讀題所需要具備的基本品質。
