【高分基礎】托福閱讀備考詞匯相關(guān)常見誤區(qū)解讀

托福閱讀備考詞匯誤區(qū)：做閱讀不用背單詞

首先說第一個問題，不用背單詞，是絕對不可能的!當我們在各大網(wǎng)站和論壇進行瀏覽的時候，我們最為關(guān)注的帖子，就是15天搞定托?？荚?，抑或是一戰(zhàn)輕松考到托福110分。毫不夸張的說，其實這些帖子完全都是無用的帖子。就像我們請教姚明怎么一下子就能摸到2米3，這時姚明會告訴你，首先要抬起手臂，然后大臂拖動小臂，最后用手觸及2米3就好了。

但是實際上姚明只是因為長得個子高，所以輕松就能摸到2米3，但是對于我等如假包退，如假包換的純屌絲來說，要想摸到2米3，其實姚明說的大多沒用，我們要么高高蹦起，要么找個梯子爬上去才是我們的王道!

其實背托福單詞也是這樣的，要想搞定托福考試，不要管何等牛人告訴你做做官方真題Official就好了，但是一定記住，那是因為這些牛人早就背下了4記單詞和托福單詞，不信就拿這些單詞書去考考他們。如果他們也沒背的話，就直接考考他們是否能把題做對。總而言之，準備托?？荚?，必須背單詞!而且是95%的4級單詞和托福單詞都要背的像book一樣熟悉才可以，換句話說，必須秒殺!不能給自己任何的思考時間!

托福閱讀備考詞匯誤區(qū)：不需要4級詞匯基礎

來說第二個誤區(qū)。其實放眼大陸的所有托福單詞書，其實都是在默認一點的，就是這些單詞書其實都是去掉了大學4級單詞的，換而言之，所有單詞書的寓意都是，至少要有大學6級基礎(這里沒有寫錯，其實過了大學4記得很多人，50%的大學4級單詞都沒記熟)，否則是不應該來談什么托?？荚嚨?。

但是現(xiàn)實的情況是，不要說很多考托福的大學生也就是4級基礎的水平，而且其實現(xiàn)在絕大多數(shù)的高中生，真的是連4級的基礎都沒有的，在這種情況下，如果直接背托福單詞，而不背4級單詞的話，就好像我們用沙子做起了一個10層的大樓，然后告訴你，向上爬吧。

其最終的結(jié)果就是，無論如何都只能剩下一身沙子。要想爬樓梯，必須要從1層爬起，沒有人可以從5層爬起，這是一個基本的常識，背單詞也是這樣，要背托福單詞，一定先要把4級單詞先背了，否則總是會發(fā)現(xiàn)句子就是無法理解。其實這個時候，不是你不會技巧，而是你不認識單詞!

Biological diversity has become widely recognized as a critical conservation issue only in the past two decades. The rapid destruction of the tropical rain forests, which are the ecosystems with the highest known species diversity on Earth, has awakened people to the importance and fragility of biological diversity. The high rate of species extinctions in these environments is jolting, but it is important to recognize the significance of biological diversity in all ecosystems. As the human population continues to expand, it will negatively affect one after another of Earth's ecosystems. In terrestrial ecosystems and in fringe marine ecosystems (such as wetlands), the most common problem is habitat destruction. In most situations, the result is irreversible. Now humans are beginning to destroy marine ecosystems through other types of activities, such as disposal and run off of poisonous waste; in less than two centuries, by significantly reducing the variety of species on Earth, they have unraveled cons of evolution and irrevocably redirected its course.

Certainly, there have been periods in Earth's history when mass extinctions have occurred. The extinction of the dinosaurs was caused by some physical event, either climatic or cosmic. There have also been less dramatic extinctions, as when natural competition between species reached an extreme conclusion. Only .01 percent of the species that have lived on Earth have survived to the present, and it was largely chance that determined which species survived and which died out.

However, nothing has ever equaled the magnitude and speed with which the human species is altering the physical and chemical world and demolishing the environment. In fact, there is wide agreement that it is the rate of change humans are inflicting, even more than the changes themselves, that will lead to biological devastation. Life on Earth has continually been in flux as slow physical and chemical changes have occurred on Earth, but life needs time to adapt — time for migration and genetic adaptation within existing species and time for the proliferation of new genetic material and new species that may be able to survive in new environments.

Railroads reshaped the North American environment and reoriented North American behavior. In a quarter of a century, claimed the Omaha Daily Republican in 1883, they have made the people of the United States homogeneous, breaking through the peculiarities and provincialisms which marked separate and unmingling sections.

The railroad simultaneously stripped the landscape of the natural resources, made velocity of transport and economy of scale necessary parts of industrial production, and carried consumer goods to households; it dispatched immigrants to unsettled places, drew emigrants away from farms and villages to cities, and sent men and guns to battle. It standardized time and travel, seeking to annihilate distance and space by allowing movement at any time and in any season or type of weather. In its grand and impressive terminals and stations, architects recreated historic Roman temples and public baths, French chateaus and Italian bell towers — edifices that people used as stages for many of everyday life's high emotions: meeting and parting, waiting and worrying, planning new starts or coming home.

Passenger terminals, like the luxury express trains that hurled people over spots, spotlight the romance of railroading. (The twentieth-Century Limited sped between Chicago and New York in twenty hours by 1915). Equally important to everyday life were the slow freight trans chugging through industrial zones, the morning and evening commuter locals shuttling back ions and urban terminals, and the incessant comings and goings that occurred in the classifications, or switching, yards. Moreover, in addition to its being a transportation pathway equipped with a mammoth physical plant of tracks signals, crossings, bridges, and junctions, plus telegraph and telephone lines the railroad nurtured factory complexes, coat piles, warehouses, and generating stations, forming along its right-of-way what has aptly been called the metropolitan corridor of the American landscape.

(A) made all sections of the nation much wealthier

(B) brought more unity to what had been a fragmented nation

(C) reduced dependence on natural resources
