考研英語7選7解題技巧之用好邏輯銜接
邏輯銜接根據(jù)前后句之間的邏輯關(guān)系又細(xì)分為：解釋關(guān)系、例證關(guān)系、因果關(guān)系、順逆關(guān)系。
1. 解釋關(guān)系
前后句之間含有解釋的邏輯關(guān)系，這樣的邏輯關(guān)系是很隱蔽的。
例題：By 1995, the year she died, the business had grown so much that she had decided to remain involved only in the area of design. ______.
正確選項(xiàng)：The creative side of things was what she had always enjoyed most.
例題分析：design這個(gè)詞的中文意思大家肯定很熟悉，但筆者如果提個(gè)問題，不知道有多少讀者能回答出來：What is the essential quality(nature) of a successful designer?(一個(gè)成功的設(shè)計(jì)師的基本素質(zhì)是什么？究竟怎樣的人可以被稱之為設(shè)計(jì)師？)答案是：He or she must have original mind.(必須具有創(chuàng)新思維。)選項(xiàng)中的the creative side of things 是對(duì)前句中the area of design的最好解釋。其實(shí)任何語言學(xué)習(xí)的最高境界就是對(duì)語言所表達(dá)的思想的精確理解，而不是表面的語言現(xiàn)象。筆者留一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的問題給讀者思考：Who can be called entrepreneurs(企業(yè)家)?
2. 例證關(guān)系
前后句的某句是為了證明另一句而舉的例子。例證的形式多樣，但就其本質(zhì)而言無非是思維上的形象(例子、類比等)和抽象(觀點(diǎn))的辯證關(guān)系，用到的思維過程無非就是基本的歸納(從形象到抽象)和推理(從抽象到形象)。
例題：Manager should provide regular feedback to their staff._____.
正確選項(xiàng)：For example, when good work has been done it must be praised.
例題分析：選項(xiàng)是對(duì)前句舉了一個(gè)十分明顯的例子。
3. 因果關(guān)系
前后句的邏輯是因果關(guān)系，常見的邏輯表達(dá)有：because, for , since, as, the reason is that,
result in /from , be due to , be attributed to 等等。還有一些表示因果邏輯關(guān)系的表達(dá)是比較隱蔽的，如：underlie (前者構(gòu)成后者的基礎(chǔ)，實(shí)際是前者是因，后者是果)，再如：in response to(前者作為后者的回應(yīng)，即后者是因，前者是果)。希望考生在平日英語學(xué)習(xí)中多作總結(jié)，這對(duì)考研各個(gè)部分的解題都有好處。
例題：There is no doubt that, in an increasingly competitive trading environment , we are better equipped than ever to compete and to win and we feel increasingly optimistic.______.
正確選項(xiàng)：This is due to our now having a clear strategy with a focus on the customer, product improvement and store refurbishment.
例題分析：選項(xiàng)句中有一個(gè)非常重要的形容詞clear，這個(gè)詞足以說明該公司的strategy(戰(zhàn)略)是正確的，一家公司有著清晰而正確的戰(zhàn)略思想當(dāng)然會(huì)使其蒸蒸日上�？崭袂懊嬉痪湔侵v的該公司躊躇滿志，十分樂觀�？崭窬溟_頭的this is due to 反映出這樣的因果邏輯關(guān)系。
4.順逆關(guān)系
英語行文中后句對(duì)前句不是順承邏輯關(guān)系就是逆轉(zhuǎn)邏輯關(guān)系，這是顯然的常識(shí)。如果空格前后兩句話之間是邏輯上的逆轉(zhuǎn)，則空格處很有可能是個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折邏輯的句子。
例題：Company both large and small have spend large sums of money on improving office computer facilities._________. It seems that business have failed to apply the developments in technology to greater effect.
正確選項(xiàng)：However , this enormous investment has not improved productivity as expected.
例題分析：空格前句作者如果不是正面也至少可以說是中性的描述：公司無論大小都在改進(jìn)自己的辦公室的硬件方面不惜血本投資�？崭窈竺娴囊痪渲杏幸粋�(gè)明確的表示負(fù)面評(píng)價(jià)的詞fail to。如果沒有空格中的這句話，前后兩句的邏輯出現(xiàn)了斷層(logical gap)。所以考生可以在備選項(xiàng)中搜尋轉(zhuǎn)折邏輯的各種表達(dá)法，很快就能找出正確的選項(xiàng)。
