题型技巧分析

标题配对题（List �of headings）是雅思阅读中的一种重要题型，要求给段落找小标题。它一般位于文章之前，由两部分组成：一部分是选项，另一部分是段落编号，要求给各个段落找到与它对应的选项，即表达了该段中心思想的选项，有时还会举一个例子。当然，例子中的选项是不会作为答案的。

解题思路：

1. 将例子所对应的选项及段落标号划去

2. 划出选项中的关键词及概念性名词

3. 浏览文章，抓住各段的主题句和核心词（尤其是反复出现的核心词），重点关注段落首句、第二句与末句

4. 与段落主题句同义或包含段落核心词的选项为正确答案

文章内容回顾

提出保护生物多样性的措施，特别针对一些不受关注但同时在食物链中比较重要的动物。

相关英文原文阅读

The variety of life on Earth, its �biological diversity is commonly rerred to as biodiversity. The number of �species of plants, animals, and microorganisms, the enormous diversity of �genes in these species, the different ecosystems on the planet, such as �deserts, rainforests and coral res are all part of a biologically diverse �Earth. Appropriate conservation and sustainable development strategies �attempt to recognize this as being integral to any approach. Almost all � cultures have in some way or form recognized the importance that nature, and �its biological diversity has had upon them and the need to maintain it. Yet, �power, greed and politics have affected the precarious balance.

�

Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity �where each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to �play.� For example,� A larger number of plant species means a �greater variety of crops Greater species diversity ensures natural �sustainability for all life forms Healthy ecosystems can better withstand and �recover from a variety of disasters. And so, while we dominate this planet, �we still need to preserve the diversity in wildlife.

�

While there might be “survival of the �fittest” within a given species, each species depends on the services �provided by other species to ensure survival. It is a type of cooperation �based on mutual survival and is often what a “balanced ecosystem” rers to.

�

The world environmental situation is likely �to be further aggravated by the increasingly rapid, large scale global �extinction of species. It occurred in the 20th century at a rate that was a �thousand times higher than the average rate during the preceding 65 million �years. This is likely to destabilize various ecosystems including �agricultural systems.

�

In a slow extinction, various balancing �mechanisms can develop. Noone knows what will be the result of this extremely �rapid extinction rate. What is known, for sure, is that the world ecological �system has been kept in balance through a very complex and multifaceted �interaction between a huge number of species. This rapid extinction is �therore likely to precipitate collapses of ecosystems at a global scale. �This is predicted to create large-scale agricultural problems, threatening � food supplies to hundreds of millions of people. This ecological prediction �does not take into consideration the fects of global warming which will �further aggravate the situation.

�

Industrialized fishing has contributed �importantly to mass extinction due to repeatedly failed attempts at limiting �the fishing.

�

A new global study concludes that 90 �percent of all large fishes have disappeared from the world’s oceans in the �past half century, the devastating result of industrial fishing. The study, �which took 10 years to complete and was published in the international �journal Nature, paints a grim picture of the Earth’s current populations of � such species as sharks, swordfish, tuna and marlin.

�

The loss of predatory fishes is likely to �cause multiple complex imbalances in marine ecology.

�

Another cause for extensive fish extinction �is the destruction of coral res. This is caused by a combination of causes, �including warming of oceans, damage from fishing tools and a harmful �infection of coral organisms promoted by ocean pollution. It will take �hundreds of thousands of years to restore what is now being destroyed in a �few decades.

�

According to the most comprehensive study �done so far in this field, over a million species will be lost in the coming �50 years. The most important cause was found to be climate change.

NOTE: The above presentation encompasses �only the most important and burning global environmental problems. There are �several additional ones, especially in the field of chemical pollution that �contribute to harm the environment or upset the ecological balance.

题型技巧分析

Summary也是雅思阅读考试的常客，做summary时首先要明确是全文型的还是段落型的。若是全文型的summary要把握文章结构，注意段首句的阅读，有效将summary中各个句子分配到文章段落中，注意前后的逻辑联系。若是段落型的summary首先要确定考察的是文章的哪个段落，可以通过以下几种方式进行定位：1) 题目直接给出；2) summary的小标题；3) summary中的特殊印刷体；4) 大题顺序原则。定位好段落以后再使用完成句子题的方法进行一一解答，先定位，再判断所填词的词性或词类，然后进行同义转换的预测，最后回原文答案进行寻找。
