Bible中第五章讲解的是Main Point题型,我们采用和书籍章节对应的方式整理。以下是第五章的详细内容。
Chapter5 Main Point Question
Og: ,无题
The central truth of Main Point Question:
Like all Must be True Questions, the correct answer must pass the Fact Test, but with the additional criterion that the correct answer choice must capture the author’s point.
1)当心有可能会把结论放在开头或中间
2)正确答案必须包含作者的观点或结论 锁定结论论最重要!
Capture the author’s conclusion when reading the stimulus!
Two incorrect answer types:
1. Answers that are true but do not encapsulate the author’s point.
2. Answers that repeat premises of the argument.
错误答案:
1) 答案为真,但没有作者观点进行归纳
2) 答案是原文前提的改写或重复
You must isolate the conclusion and then look for a paraphrase of that conclusion.
Many Main Point question stimuli avoid using traditional conclusion indicators and this lack of argument indicator “guideposts” makes your task more challenging.
Remember, if you are struggling to identify the conclusion in an argument, you can always use the methodology discussed.
Conclusion Identification Method:
Take the statements under consideration for the conclusion and place them in an arrangement that forces one to be the conclusion and the other(s) to be the premise(s). Use premise and conclusion indicators to achieve this end. Once the pieces are arranged, determine if the arrangement makes logical sense. If so, you have made the correct identification. If not, reverse the arrangement and examine the relationship again. Continue until you find an arrangement that is logical.
Recognize the differences between Main Point and Must Be True question.
Prompt for Main Point 题干中已经存在结论,选项只是重述结论; 逻辑含义是,下面那个选项将很好的描述作者的观点,作者的观点已经存在,你只需找出他,进行重述
• The main point of the argument above is that
• Which one of the following most accurately expresses the editor’s conclusion?
• Which of the following best summarizes the conclusion of the argument?
• The author hopes to prove which of the following?
• The argument seems to lead up to which of the following?
• Which of the following is the author’s main point?
Must Be True question stems appear in a variety of formats, but one or both of the features described below appear consistently:
1. The stem often indicates the information in the stimulus should be taken as true, as in:
“If the statements above are true...”
“The statements above, if true...”
“If the information above is correct...”
This type of phrase helps indicate that you are dealing with a First Family question type.
2. The stem asks you to identify a single answer choice that is proven or supported, as in:
“...which one of the following must also be true?”
“...which one of the following conclusions can be properly drawn on the basis of it?”
“...most strongly support which one of the following?”
“Which one of the following can be properly inferred...”
In each case, the question stem indicates that one of the answer choices is proven by the information in the stimulus.
Prompt for Must Be True: 原文中本没有结论,这里选项中有可能是事实,也有可能是 结论; 不同于main point ,这里让你自己归纳作者的观点;逻辑含义是,下面哪个‘事实’或者‘结论’被上面的信息所支持, 有可能是让你自己归纳作者的观点。
“If the statements above are true, which one of the following must also be true?”
“If the information above is correct, which one of the following conclusions can be properly drawn on the basis of it?”
“The statements above, if true, most strongly support which one of the following?”
“Which one of the following can be properly inferred from the passage?”
“Which one of the following is most strongly supported by the information above?”
