4、A such as B,C,D 或 such A as B,C,D
处理方法:两种其实是一样的,不过是换一种表述。它的本质其实是A。遇到它们就只读A,不读BCD。比如
Verbal attacks such as screaming and shouting or belittling and humiliating comments can also be a type of aggression.
直接看成Verbal attacks can also be a type of aggression.口头攻击也是一种侵略性行为的类型。
5、In addition to....,....
It is not just....,....
Rather than....,....
Although/while....,....
处理方法:In addition toA,B 的意思是除了A还有A。这个A往往就是上文提到的,而B就是要附加的。所以遇到In addition to....,....这种结构就找逗号,只读逗号后面的内容,In addition to 和逗号之间的....就不读。
It is not just....,....意思是不止....,还有....。处理方法也是找逗号,读逗号后面的。
Rather than....,....意思是与其....不如....。遇到这种也是找逗号,然后读逗号后面的。
解释一下,前面的In addition to 强调的是逗号后面的内容。In addition to,那个to后面的内容一定是前面讲过的内容,所以不用读。而It is not just....后面的不读,是因为表示否定。否定的内容一般不作为出题点。因为如果否定的地方作为出题点,答案往往不唯一。
Although/While....,....
也是读逗号后面的。因为although和while表示让步,所以前后的词语就是转折的关系。相当于把although和while去掉,把逗号换成but,实际上作者想强调的是but后面的。(文章中but后面的一定是重点)。
Cooperation,rather than evoking a characteristic at the opposite extreme of human nature from competition, is in reality a necessary factor in competition.
看到有rather than马上找逗号,在后面competition后面。直接翻译为合作是竞争的必要因素。rather than后面的复杂结构就不用管它了。
6、more....than....
处理方法:more A than B。与其B不如A,强调的是A。读的时候than后面的东西全部扔掉,只读A。比如
More first-borns have served in the U.S. Congress and as U.S.presidents than have those born in other birth-order positions.
只读More first-borns have served in the U.S. Congress and as U.S.presidents .
7、as well as = and
处理方法:直接看成and,去掉逗号,然后找并列。
8、主语,....,谓语宾语 或 主语谓语,...,宾语
处理方法:这两种表示一个句子没完就被隔开了。遇到这种,就直接找那两个逗号,两个逗号中间的不读,前后的连起来读就可以了。
