大學英語四級長篇匹配閱讀20篇

大學英語四級考試閱讀部分試題的第二部分是長篇匹配閱讀，要求考生閱讀一篇

1000詞左右的文章并完成10道題目。長篇匹配閱讀考查考生運用專門的閱讀技

能來閱讀文章的能力，包括用略讀獲取文章大意和用查讀獲取特定信息。

大學英語四級長篇四配閱讀20篇

3.1大學英語四級長篇匹配閱讀答題攻略

一、題型介紹

1.文章包括兩類：帶小標題的文章和無小標題的文章

帶小標題的文章的每一部分都有一個總括性的小標題，通常這個小標題就是該部

分內(nèi)容的概括性總結(jié)，且每一小標題下的內(nèi)容通常是相對獨立的。

無小標題的文章沒有明顯的內(nèi)容間隔，對于這類文章，需通過略讀找出主題句或

主題詞，特別要注意每段的句首和句尾。

2.題目類型：句子表述對應文中段落

2006年6月?2007年6月，這部分是快速閱讀部分，閱讀后的題目為：前面7

題為是非判斷題，2007年12月?2013年6月的快速閱讀部分的前面7題為選

擇題；后面3題題型不變，為填空題，要求考生根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容把句子補充完整。

而在2013年12月的四級考試，快速閱讀變?yōu)殚L篇匹配閱讀，篇章后附有10個

句子，每句一題。每句所含的信息出自篇章的某一段落，要求考生找出與每句所

含信息相匹配的段落。有的段落可能對應兩題，有的段落可能不對應任何一題。

二、命題規(guī)律

1.長篇匹配閱讀題目設(shè)置時，將幾句話整合或者將段落的大意、段落中的具體

信息作為考察點。題目的順序不再按文章順序，而是打亂了，需要考生找到題目

與文章項匹配的段落。

2.包含時間數(shù)字、大寫字母、人名、地名、機構(gòu)名稱等特別的信息點處往往是

命題的重點。

3.標點符號處常設(shè)考點。文章中的標點符號往往是為了更好地解釋前面的內(nèi)容,

所以可以利用標點符號，如破折號、小括號、冒號等，推斷不認識的單詞或句子

的含義。

三、定位技巧

長篇閱讀篇幅長、時間短，因此如何快速確定答案所在的位置極其關(guān)鍵。選取定

位詞時有兩個標準：特殊性和細節(jié)性。文章中多次出現(xiàn)的詞匯不是定位詞，只有

那些出現(xiàn)次數(shù)少、具有明顯識別性的詞才是定位詞。長篇匹配閱讀的定位技巧與

以前的快速閱讀時定位類似。

題干中比較容易定位的關(guān)鍵詞包括:

大學英語四級長篇四配閱讀20篇

1.數(shù)字、地點、大寫、斜體、人名的單詞

數(shù)字包括時間、分數(shù)、百分數(shù)、貨幣數(shù)和普通數(shù)值等，這類詞容易在原文中找到,

可輕松定位。

例：Sincethemid-1970s,theenrollmentofoverseasstudentshasincreasedatan

annualrateof3.9percent.（2013年12月樣題）

地點一般都具有唯一性，其首字母是大寫，考試時應注意原文中的不同地點會對

應不同的信息。

例：ThenumberofforeignstudentsapplyingtoU.S.universitiesdecreased

sharplyafterSeptember11duetochangesinthevisaprocess.（2013年12月樣

題）

大寫單詞一般是組織機構(gòu)等的縮寫或是對某事物的特定稱謂，在考查該地區(qū)、該

事件等相關(guān)問題時作用時可幫助定位。

例：WhatkindoforganizationisMindsetsLLC?（2009年6月）

斜體一般是在考查與斜體相關(guān)的信息時出現(xiàn)，可在原文中快速找到。

人名通常是和某個機構(gòu)名稱或其職務連用，如ScottFriedhoff,Allegheny'svice

president,在考查某人的觀點態(tài)度或研究發(fā)現(xiàn)時常利用人名進行定位。

例：WhatdoHongKongdinerswelcome,accordingtoWelshexecutivechefDavid

Tamlyn?（2011年6月）

2.拼寫較長、以連字符連接的詞

這類詞在原文中的出現(xiàn)次數(shù)很少，因此可根據(jù)題干中的長難詞有效確定答案的位

置。

例：Present-dayuniversitieshavebecomeapowerfulforceforglobalintegration.

（2013年12月樣題）

globalintegration表示"全球一體化”是常見的搭配，在文中很容易就能找到。

3.文章小標題

長篇匹配閱讀有時在文章中會出現(xiàn)多個小標題，而每個小標題后都對應特定主題

的內(nèi)容，做題時可根據(jù)題干信息找到相應小標題，縮小做題范圍。

四、解題技巧

大學英語四級長篇四配閱讀20篇

利用定位技巧找到題干在原文中的大體位置后，如何確定題目答案同樣有跡可循。

1.注意邏輯關(guān)系詞

在將題目與原文進行對應時，要學會挑揀有信息的地方精讀，其中原文中表示邏

輯關(guān)系的詞要注意：

a.因果關(guān)系：asaresult,therefore,hence,consequently,because,for,dueto等。

b.并歹U、遞進關(guān)系：and,or,then,inaddition,besides,inotherwords,moreover

等。

c.轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系：however,but,yet,infact等。

d.表示比較：onthecontrary;bycontrast;comparedwith,...than...等。

運用這些詞可幫助確定題目的考查點，例如出現(xiàn)表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的詞時，轉(zhuǎn)折的作

用一般是對前面的否定，對后面的肯定。

2.運用標點符號

要學會運用小括號、破折號、冒號等。通常這些標點符號是為了進一步解釋前面

的信息，而快速閱讀的詞匯相對來說比較簡單，可以很容易理解標點前的被解釋

信息，因此在做題時可將這些符號之后的信息略去不讀，從而節(jié)省做題時間。

3.同義替換

四級長篇匹配閱讀部分，有時題目并不一定是原本的內(nèi)容，而是使用了同義轉(zhuǎn)換，

因此做題時注意原文中換一種說法以后設(shè)置的題目。有的題考查文章主旨、段落

大意，通?？稍谖恼碌氖啄┚渥?、首末段落處查找。

五、解題步驟

在做長篇匹配閱讀時，除了要有較快的閱讀速度，還必須掌握一定的做題方法，

考生可參照以下步驟進行答題：

1.先看題目定方向

長篇匹配閱讀篇幅長、時間短，因此在做題時必須帶著目的在原文中有選擇有方

向地閱讀。考生應先看題目再看文章，首先利用題目中的時間、數(shù)字、大寫、人

名等關(guān)鍵詞快速定位答案在原文中的位置，接著再讀文章。

2.定位判斷很輕松

大學英語四級長篇四配閱讀20篇

相對于深度閱讀而言，長篇匹配閱讀中"找"甚于"懂"，因為它不像深度閱讀的選

項那樣具有極強的干擾性，因此只要題干中的某些關(guān)鍵詞出現(xiàn)在文中鎖定的位置,

就可以確定正確答案了。

「文章大意」

本文講述了一位盲人使用電子書的感受，從之前只有很少的書籍有盲文版本，到

現(xiàn)在通過使用閱讀器可以將所有的書都轉(zhuǎn)換成盲文，極大地方便了盲人中那些渴

望讀書的人。

參考答案及解析

1.H定位由equallyrandomwhimofthecommittee可定位到H段倒數(shù)第二句。

解析該句提到作者現(xiàn)在可以對自己要讀什么書做任意的決定，而不是“聽從那些

決定將哪些書制成盲文的委員會的任意的決定”。

2.B定位由sorrowfor可定位到B段第三句。

解析該句指出“只有一件事作者不能堅持自己的原則，即不為自己不能擁有的而

傷心”，后面接著提到“是因為只有很少一部分的書籍有盲文版本〃。

3.F定位由secondhand可定位到F段后半部分。

解析作者用小孩吃糖果的例子來說明為什么必須是二手書店，最后一句指出“二

手書店在某種程度上是控制花銷的唯一的一種方式”。

4.A定位根據(jù)evilspeakingagainsttheeBook可定位到A段第四句。

解析該句指出“最新抨擊電子書的焦點是電子書不像紙質(zhì)書可以留下痕跡，可以

傳遞，可以擴充房屋，可以點燃回憶等”。

大學英語四級長篇匹配閱讀20篇

5.D定位由holiday,browsinginbookshops可定位到D段中間。

解析該句指出“假期的大部分時間我都在書店里瀏覽，不是為了自罰，而是尋找

我真正可以讀的書”。

6.1定位由tolimitherselftothreeorfourpaperbacks可定位到I段倒數(shù)第二句。

解析這句話提到“現(xiàn)在是我可以在假期的時候隨便帶多少書，把它們都裝在這些

小卡片里，而我的妻子卻只能帶三四本紙質(zhì)書”。

7.C定位由book-lover可定位到C段最后一句。

解析作者和那些愛書人"有同樣的感官渴望一紙張的味道，新書翻開的響聲帶來

的滿足，撫摸圓形書脊的那種開心感覺一但卻沒有一點來自讀書的滿足”。

8.1定位根據(jù)notperfectyet可定位至UI段。

解析該段前幾句提到"目前的技術(shù)并不完美，一頁頁的掃描書很乏味，而且不同

的類型和打印尺寸經(jīng)常會得到不同的結(jié)果，這需要熟練的編輯技術(shù)才能做到輕松

易讀”。

9.E定位根據(jù)題干中portablebraillereader,15years可定位到E段。

解析該段后半部分提到作者知道“這種技術(shù)不是很新，它已經(jīng)存在至少15年了，

但是他是一個天生的勒德分子"，接著作者解釋了什么是勒德分子，即必須經(jīng)過

四個階段才能去使用這種技術(shù)的人。

10.G定位由feelsthegrowingdisapproval可定位到G段后半部分。

解析作者指出“有時候會感到逐漸增多的不滿：我們可以忍受一個電話，但不是

三個"，即作者不滿有太多的電話響聲。

「文章大意」

大學英語四級長篇匹配閱讀20篇

本文圍繞誠信進行討論，可見近些年來人們對于道德問題給予了高度的重視。本

文以小標題的形式展開，從什么是誠信、風險業(yè)務、人人熱衷于冒險、評估風險、

避免欺騙行為等方面闡釋了誠信在日常生活中的重要性。

參考答案及解析

1.E定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞regretlater定位至UE段的第二句。

解析表述與原文是同義轉(zhuǎn)述，value和原文中的focuson都表達"注重眼前利益"

之意。

2.H定位據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞Integritymatters和relyon定位到H段第二句。

解析該句提到“我們的日常生活都必須依靠相互信任”，否則社會會一片混亂，由

此可見正直、誠實的重要性。

3.C定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞identifytherisks將答案定位在C段。

解析題干中identifytherisks與文中recognizerisks是同義替換。

4.D定位根據(jù)題干中foolthemselves和byusingallkindsofexcuses可定位在D

段第一句。

解析該句提到“惹禍上身的人中絕大多數(shù)都知道規(guī)則和事實，但是他們總是自欺

欺人，為自己所承擔的風險尋找借口”。

5.G定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞disease和hurt等詞，可定位到G段。

解析這一段主要講的是作弊對他人的危害。陳述是對G段的總結(jié)。

6.A定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞是"notonly...butalso..."可定位到全文第一句。

解析提到“誠信最關(guān)鍵的就是言行一致一一不僅要為自己設(shè)定一個高標準（誠實,

責任感，尊重他人，公平），而且每時每刻都要遵守這些標準”。

7.F定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞getcaught定位到F段的首句。

解析原句里的higherprice和moredearly是同義替換。

8.H定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞integrityoftheirpoliticalleaders定位至!jH段的后面

部分。

解析該部分提到水門事件的丑聞使美國人對政治和社會的信任降低。

大學英語四級長篇展配閱讀20篇

9.B定位根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞personalandprofessional定位到原文B段中間及后半
