2020 National Exam Preparation: How to Understand Cause and Effect Relationships in Speech

Example 3 The Forbidden City is filled with red and yellow colors, and the color is relatively single in the large Forbidden City. The reason why these two colors were chosen is due to the influence of traditional Chinese culture. In traditional culture, red has always been regarded as a kind of joyful color, signifying solemnity, happiness and good fortune. According to literature, the color red has been commonly used in palaces since the Zhou Dynasty. The Forbidden City inherited the color aesthetics of previous palaces, which is why it used a lot of red. As for the determination of the orthodox status of yellow, it stems from the Chinese nation's tracing of the origin of civilization. Chinese civilization originated in the Yellow River basin, the endless Loess Plateau, and the rushing Yellow River, all of which made the yellow color y imprinted into the essence of the yellow children. To the Han Dynasty, Han Wu Di Liu Che established "Hanju Tu De", so far, the yellow color has become a symbol of the imperial power of the Han Dynasty, and the subsequent dynasties have remained unchanged, all to the yellow color for the noble.

The most accurate summary of the main idea of the passage is:

A. emphasize the single-color architectural features of the Forbidden City

B. explain the symbolism of red and yellow in traditional Chinese culture

C. analyze the influence of traditional Chinese culture on the color of the building

D. analyze the reasons for choosing the red and yellow colors of the Forbidden City

This is the first time that a question has been asked on the subject of the Forbidden City. A main idea summary question, the passage first talks about the Forbidden City's relatively single color, next explains the reasons for choosing red and yellow through cause and effect inverted sentences. Finally, a detailed explanation is given in the section on reasons. The main point is that the Forbidden City chose the colors red and yellow. Therefore, choose option D.

Example 1 and example 2 belong to the same by the cause and effect of the conclusion of the leading word guided by the main sentence, but in the choice of the answer, we find that the example 1 is the main sentence of the synonymous replacement, while the example 2 has a markedly different, the correct answer is not only synonymous with the replacement of the conclusion of the sentence, but also appeared in the "the reason for the" three words, and similarly, example 3, inverted cause and effect structure choice answer is also in this form. The answer to the structural choice in Example 3 is also in this form. It is easy to misunderstand that the cause and effect relationship is also important. But by the above three examples can be seen, whether it is simply the conclusion of synonymous replacement or emphasize the conclusion of the reason, both have obvious ****, that is, the conclusion of this part of the content must appear.

In summary, the most typical format of causality is because A, so B, special format is the reason why B, because A, both emphasize the conclusion is B focus. Causality correct answer can be summarized in the following three forms: ① conclusion B synonymous replacement; ② emphasize the reason for the conclusion B; ③ reason A and conclusion B at the same time, and ① ② two forms are more common, the cause + conclusion of the form is rare. If the option simply describes the content of the cause is not divided, it is a non-focus should be excluded.
