指示代词的指代含义该如何准确判断呢?

Step 1 : 往前找,一般一句话
Step 2:人称和数要一致
Step 3:结合语境做验证
下面来看几处例题,检验一下吧:
例1:C11T3P2-Q24
One particular population’s summer habitat is a national park, and their winter home is on the____ , where they go to avoid...
分析:
本题可以根据summer habitat, national park, winter home 等定位词,结合出题句特征(含有指示代词的句子),定位到下一句话:
One population, which spends the summer in the mountainous Grand Teton National Park of the western USA, follows a narrow route from its summer range in the mountains, across a riverand down onto the plains. Here they wait out the frozen months, feeding mainly on sagebrush blown clear of snow.
分析这句话可以得知:summer habitat替换为spends the summer in the mountainous,national park则替换为Grand Teton National Park of the western USA,winter home则对应替换为frozen month;由此可以推测指示代词here 指的是某个地点,上文中的地点有两处,分别为mountains 和plains,最后根据句意验证可以得出plains 为本题的答案。
例2:C11T3P3-Q39
The writer advises non-mathematical readers to perform___while reading the book.
分析:
本题可以根据non-mathematical readers, perform, reading 等定位词,结合出题句特征(含指示代词的句子)定位到下一句话:
You will turn these pages much more slowly than when reading a novel or a newspaper. It may help to have a pencil and paper ready to check claims and carry out experiments.
分析这句话可以得知:readers和reading对应的定位句中的turn these pages,结合出题句特征以及最后一个定位词perform被替换成了carry out,结合语境理解得知,it指代的是上文中看书这件事,由此可以推出本题答案为experiments。
总 结
雅思阅读中会经常出现代词,用于指代之前出现过的人、事、物等,作为常见的出题句特征之一,在阅读中可以帮助烤鸭们快速定位、判断出题句。
