探究2：推理判断题命题解读及备考策略

闫跃

一、命题解读

推理判断题是指那些针对文章隐含的内容、作者未言明的观点或含蓄表达的立场所设置的问题，主要考查考生概括、归纳、比较、推理等综合能力，要求考生在理解文章字面意思的基础上，解读文章的深层内涵。

二、解题策略

1. 推断隐含意义

这类题目要求考生在理解原文的表面信息的基础上，通过合乎情理的推断，得出更深层次的隐含意义，从而推断出作者没有提到或没有明说的某一情况。题干中通常含有infer、imply、indicate、suggest等标志词。正确选项必须忠实原文，但不能照搬原文，否则就变成了事实细节，而不是经过推断而得出的结论。

A. It's formal.    B. It's risky.

In some cases， it's not so much the treatment of the animals on set in the studio that has activists worried; it's the off-set training and living conditions that are raising concerns.

27. What can we infer from the last paragraph about animal actors？

A. They may be badly treated. B. They should take further training.

三、总结

解答推理判断题要注意两点：一是推理，二是判断，两者密不可分。推理是为了判断，判断依赖于推理。推理判断时务必要忠于原文，以原文为基础，在文章中寻找用于推理的依据，切忌主观臆断，把自己的看法当成作者的观点。
