五、conform to principle類題目

這一類題目的形式是非常獨(dú)特的一類，題目中給出一個(gè)推理的結(jié)論或者一種現(xiàn)象；然后讓我們的考生在選項(xiàng)中找一個(gè)與題目中所提到的結(jié)論與現(xiàn)象類似的選項(xiàng)。這種題目許多考生經(jīng)常會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己遇到了困境，自己差不多讀懂了題目的一種“內(nèi)在關(guān)系”------就是A增多了，所以B增多了。結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)選項(xiàng)中表達(dá)類似意思的有四個(gè)選項(xiàng)，根本就無(wú)法選出一個(gè)自己滿意的答案。然而，這一類題目本身選項(xiàng)就特別長(zhǎng)，讀一遍就浪費(fèi)了很多時(shí)間，根本就沒(méi)心情讀第二遍。所以這一類題目，我們需要注意兩點(diǎn)：

一是把文章中那部分用于作對(duì)比的內(nèi)容畫出來(lái)。

二是把內(nèi)容中中主體的性質(zhì)與關(guān)系記清楚。我們來(lái)看一個(gè)難一些的題目：

Buying elaborate screensavers------programs that put moving images on a computer monitor to prevent damage------can cost a company far more in employee time than it saves in electricity and monitor protections. Employees cannot resist spending time playing with screensavers that flash interesting graphics across the screens.

Which one of the following most closely conforms to the principle illustrated above?

A a school that chooses textbooks based on student preference may not get the most economical package.

B an energy-efficient insulation system may cost more up front but will ultimately save money over the life of the house.

C the time that it takes to have a pizza delivered may be longer than it takes to cook a complete dinner.

D a complicated hotel security system may cost more in customer good will than it saves in losses by theft.

E an electronic keyboard may be cheaper to buy than a piano but more expensive to repair.

我們看一下這個(gè)題目，題目中講“屏保程序雖然節(jié)約了電，保護(hù)了電腦；但是減少了職工的實(shí)際工作時(shí)間”?，旣惱蠋熃榻B一個(gè)做這類題目的兩部曲：

一、   畫出考查內(nèi)容！就是說(shuō)通過(guò)閱讀個(gè)選項(xiàng)，知道了選項(xiàng)考查的內(nèi)容是哪一部分之后，回過(guò)頭來(lái)把考查的那部分推理給畫出來(lái)。

二、  分析考查內(nèi)容的主體以及邏輯關(guān)系。那么這道題中主體很明確了-------就是屏保的兩個(gè)影響：“employee time”& “electricity and protection”;邏輯關(guān)系是前者大于后者。

通過(guò)分析原文，不難看出A沒(méi)有比較；B好處大于壞處；C不是影響的比較；D正確；E成為了兩個(gè)主體的比較。
