1、剑九阅读真题William Henry Perkin做题分析 新通外语广州学校网址: G 剑九阅读真题William Henry Perkin做题分析 一篇雅思文章拿下来,我们可以先看文章,再看题目,也可以先看题目再看文章,这两种做题的顺序都各有利弊,孰好孰坏取决于每个人看文章做题的习惯。今天,我们借助一篇剑九阅读真题William Henry Perkin,向大家讲解一种新的做题方式做题看文章交叉进行。一边做题一边看文章,做题看文章交叉进行,乍听之下也许大家会觉得很容易造成阅读混乱,但其实不然,这种做题方式不但省时省事,而且准确率也高。接下来我们一起来看看做题看文章交叉进行这种方法是如何运用
2、在具体的文章中的。 在雅思阅读真题Test 1的reading passage 1 William Henry Perkin,运用做题看文章交叉进行,我们可以很快地把题目做出来,而且无需反复回原文查看。 好吧,我们一起开始做题,记住,且行且思,且看题目且看文章,且思考。 1 Michael Faraday was the first person to recognize Perkins ability as a student of chemistry. 第一道题目讲的是Michael Faraday是第一个赏识Perkin作为一个化学学生所具有的才能,我们猜测考点可能是the first
3、person,立即阅读文章William Henry Perkin:The man who invented synthetic dyes。文章第一段William Henry Perkin was born on March 12, 1838, in London, England. As a boy, Perkins curiosity prompted early interests in the arts, sciences, photography, and engineering. But it was a chance stumbling upon a run-down, yet
4、 functional, laboratory in his late grandfathers home that solidified the young mans enthusiasm for chemistry.大致讲了Perkin的幼年,没找到答案,继续看第二段As a student at the City of London School, Perkin became immersed in the study of chemistry.

Those speeches fired the young chemists enthusiasm further, and he later went on to attend the Royal College of Chemistry, which he succeeded in entering in 1853, at
6、 the age of 15.我们找到His talent and devotion to the subject were perceived by his teacher, Thomas Hall。Thomas Hall鼓励他参加了一系列皇家学院知名科学家Michael Faraday所做的讲座。由此我们知道Michael Faraday不是第一个赏识Perkin的人,在他之前还有Thomas Hall,题目到此我们可以判断为FALSE。 2 Michael Faraday suggested Perkin should enrol in the Royal College of Chem

8、 Royal College of Chemistry, which he succeeded in entering in 1853, at the age of 15.我们并没有从这段文章看到有关Michael Faraday建议Perkin入学皇家化学学院的信息,初步判断是NOT GIVEN,当文章看到最后我们也确实没看到任何相关信息。 3 Perkin employed August Wilhelm Hofmann as his assistant. 第三道题讲的是Perkin雇佣August Wilhelm Hofmann作为他的助手。我们继续阅读文章At the time of P
9、erkins enrolment, the Royal College of Chemistry was headed by the noted German chemist August Wilhelm Hofmann. Perkins scientific gifts soon caught Hofmanns attention and, within two years, he became Hofmanns youngest assistant.文中讲到Perkin的科学天分很快引起了Hofmann的注意,不到两年后,他成了Hofmann最年轻的助手。谁是谁的助手,分清人物关系我们很快
10、就知道答案是FALSE。 4 Perkin was still young when he made the discovery that made him rich and famous. 第四道题目讲的是当Perkin的发现使得他名利双收的时候他仍然很年轻。我们继续阅读Not long after that, Perkin made the scientific breakthrough that would bring him both fame and fortune. 那之后没多久,Perkin就做出了科学上的突破,而这一突破将会使他名利双收。Perkin这时候确实仍然很年轻。答案出

The drug is derived from the bark of the cinchona tree, native to South America, and by 1856 demand for the drug was
12、surpassing the available supply. Thus, when Hofmann made some passing comments about the desirability of a synthetic substitute for quinine, it was unsurprising that his star pupil was moved to take up the challenge.知道The drug is derived from the bark of the cinchona tree, native to South America, 这
13、种药取自原产南美洲的金鸡纳树的树皮,是不是仅仅生长在南美洲文章也没有明确给出,初步判断是NOT GIVEN,看到文章后面也没有看到相关信息。 留学改变人生,教育改变中国! 新通外语广州学校官网: 新通外语广州学校网址: G 6 Perkin hoped to manufacture a drug from a coal tar waste product. 第六道题讲的是Perkin希望从煤焦油废料产物中制造出药品。我们继续看文章During his vacation in 1856, Perkin spent his time in the laboratory on the top flo

15、相对应,所以是TRUE。 7 Perkin was inspired by the discoveries of the famous scientist Louis Pasteur. 第七道题目讲的是Perkin被著名的科学家Louis Pasteur的发现所鼓舞。我们继续看文章Despite his best efforts, however, he did not end up with quinine. Instead, he produced a mysterious dark sludge. Luckily, Perkins scientific training and natu
16、re prompted him to investigate the substance further. Incorporating potassium dichromate and alcohol into the aniline at various stages of the experimental process, he finally produced a deep purple solution. And, providing the truth of the famous scientist Louis Pasteurs words chance favors only th
17、e prepared mind, Perkin saw the potential of his unexpected find.文中讲的是事态的发展完全验证了著名科学家路易巴斯德的名言“机遇只偏爱那些有准备的头脑”,Perkin看到了自己这不期而至之发现的潜在价值。 文章中没有提到Louis Pasteur的发现,只提到他的名言,所以是NOT GIVEN。 8 Before Perkins discovery, with what group in society was the colour purple associated? 第八道题讲的是在Perkin的发现之前,紫色是那种社会群体使
18、用的。我们继续阅读文章Historically, textile dyes were made from such natural sources as plants and animal excretions. Some of these, such as the glandular mucus of snails, were difficult to obtain and outrageously expensive. Indeed, the purple color extracted from a snail was once so costly that in society at
19、the time only the rich could afford it. Further, natural dyes tended to me muddy in hue and fade quickly. It was against this backdrop that Perkins discovery was made.文章中的句子Indeed, the purple color extracted from a snail was once so costly that in society at the time only the rich could afford it.讲到
20、实际上,从一种蜗牛身上提取而来的紫色曾经一度昂贵到在当时的社会上,只有富人才买得起,所以答案是The rich。 9 What potential did Perkin immediately understand that his new dye had? 留学改变人生,教育改变中国! 新通外语广州学校官网: 新通外语广州学校网址: G 第九道问的是Perkin很快明白他的新染料具有的潜在价值。我们继续读文章Perkin quickly grasped that his purple solution could be used to color fabric, thus making it

But perhaps the most fascinating of all Perkins reactions to his find was his nearly instant recognition that the new dye had commercial possibilities.句子中的But perhaps the most fascinating
22、 of all Perkins reactions to his find was his nearly instant recognition that the new dye had commercial possibilities。文中讲到在Perkin对其发现所做出的所有反应中最令人惊叹的,是他几乎立刻就看到了这种新染料有着商业上的无限可能性,所以答案是Commercial。 10 What was the name finally used to refer to the first colour Perkin invented? 第十题问的是Perkin发明的第一种颜色最后使用的名

24、the color violet). Perkin起初将他的染料命名为“提尔紫”,但这种颜色后来普遍被人们称作“mauve”红紫色所以答案为Mauve。 11 What was the name of the person Perkin consulted before setting up his own dye works? 第十一题问的是在建立起他自己的染料工场前,Perkin咨询的那个人的名字。我们继续阅读文章He asked advice of Scottish dye works owner Robert Pullar, who assured him that manufactu

30、到相关答案,继续看下一段Although Perkins fame was achieved and fortune assured by his first discovery, the chemist continued his research. Among other dyes he developed and introduced were aniline red (1859) and aniline black (1863) and, in the late 1860s, Perkins green. It is important to note that Perkins syn
31、thetic dye discoveries had outcomes far beyond the merely decorative. The dyes also became vital to medical research in many ways. For instance, they were used to stain previously invisible microbes and bacteria, allowing researchers to identify such bacilli as tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax. Ar
32、tificial dyes continue to play a crucial role today. And, in what would have been particularly pleasing to Perkin, their current use is in the search for a vaccine against malaria.文中讲到如果Perkin泉下有知一定会对此感到格外开怀,它们目前正被用来寻找一种对抗疟疾的疫苗,所以答案是Malaria。 到这里,文章看完了,题目做完了,这就是做题看文章交叉进行,这种做题方式不一定适用于每一个同学,对于基础较好的同学,此方法会有很大的帮助,希望考生们在不断的做题中,摸索出适合自己的做题方法,适合自己的就是最好的。 在雅思备考的路上行走时,我们需要思考,但不能一味思考而停滞不前,就像这篇文章的解题过程一样,且行且思。 留学改变人生,教育改变中国! 新通外语广州学校官网: 新通外语广州学校网址: G 更多雅思机经下载,点击进入免费下载 留学改变人生,教育改变中国! 新通外语广州学校官网:
