Paragraph matching in CET-6 reading: problem-solving skills

First browse the topic and underline the key words.

Because the order of CET-6 reading questions is different from the original text, candidates can't do the questions in the traditional order. The characteristics of synonymous reporting and detailed questions require candidates to find detailed information in the text quickly. Although the article is very long, there are still rules to follow. Judging from last year's real questions, although the sentences state the details of the article, their basic contents are all described around the theme of the paragraph. Therefore, it is suggested to take the strategy of reading the topic first and then the article. When browsing the topic, pay attention to the key words in the sentence. By reading several details in the stem quickly, candidates can quickly understand the main idea of the article, thus speeding up reading and saving positioning time.

Second, go back to the original text and do the simple questions first.

Long reading articles in CET-6 reading are generally expository or argumentative, and these articles are logically rigorous. There are usually some indicative words in the information expression provided by the stem, which can help candidates narrow the positioning range and quickly determine the original paragraph corresponding to their detailed information. Some topics will contain directional words with obvious characteristics, such as numbers, time and special fonts (such as capital letters and italics). These topics are relatively easy. Candidates can quickly match and choose the correct answer as long as they find the corresponding paragraphs with obvious characteristics in the text.

Third, pay attention to synonymous reporting and complete the remaining problems.

About 60% of the ten questions in CET-6 have no obvious characteristic keywords, which often tests the sensitivity of candidates to synonymous reporting. Usually, the ways of synonymous reporting include changing part of speech, using synonyms and changing sentence patterns. According to the keywords extracted in the first step, candidates can find the corresponding synonymous reporting points in the remaining paragraphs after choosing the second paragraph to complete all the questions.

In a word, the key to doing CET-6 information matching problem is to delimit keywords and find corresponding points. No matter whether the original words are reproduced or synonymous, you can get high marks on this issue as long as you match the corresponding points quickly and carefully. Candidates are advised to practice more according to Bian Xiao's suggestion and control the time to do the questions.
