托福閱讀練習(xí)及詳細(xì)解析：Artisans and Industrialization

Before 1815 manufacturing in the United States had been done in homes or shops by skilled artisans. As master craft workers, they imparted the knowledge of their trades to apprentices and journeymen. In addition, women often worked in their homes part-time, making finished articles from raw material supplied by merchant capitalists. After 1815 this older form of manufacturing began to give way to factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers. Cheap transportation networks, the rise of cities, and the availability of capital and credit all stimulated the shift to factory production.

The creation of a labor force that was accustomed to working in factories did not occur easily. Before the rise of the factory, artisans had worked within the home. Apprentices were considered part of the family, and masters were responsible not only for teaching their apprentices a trade but also for providing them some education and for supervising their moral behavior. Journeymen knew that if they perfected their skill, they could become respected master artisans with their own shops. Also, skilled artisans did not work by the clock, at a steady pace, but rather in bursts of intense labor alternating with more leisurely time.

The factory changed that. Goods produced by factories were not as finished or elegant as those done by hand, and pride in craftsmanship gave way to the pressure to increase rates of productivity. The new methods of doing business involved a new and stricter sense of time. Factory life necessitated a more regimented schedule, where work began at the sound of a bell and workers kept machines going at a constant pace. At the same time, workers were required to discard old habits, for industrialism demanded a worker who was alert, dependable, and self-disciplined. Absenteeism and lateness hurt productivity and, since work was specialized, disrupted the regular factory routine. Industrialization not only produced a fundamental change in the way work was organized; it transformed the very nature of work.

The first generation to experience these changes did not adopt the new attitudes easily.The factory clock became the symbol of the new work rules. One mill worker who finally quit complained revealingly about "obedience to the ding-dong of the bell-just as though we are so many living machines." With the loss of personal freedom also came the loss of standing in the community. Unlike artisan workshops in which apprentices worked closely with the masters supervising them, factories sharply separated workers from management. Few workers rose through the ranks to supervisory positions, and even fewer could achieve the artisan's dream of setting up one's own business. Even well-paid workers sensed their decline in status.In this newly emerging economic order, workers sometimes organized to protect their rights and traditional ways of life. Craft workers such as carpenters, printers, and tailors formed unions, and in 1834 individual unions came together in the National Trades' Union. The labor movement gathered some momentum in the decade before the Panic of 1837, but in the depression that followed, labor's strength collapsed. During hard times, few workers were willing to strike_or engage in collective action. And skilled craft workers, who spearheaded the union movement, did not feel a particularly strong bond with semiskilled factory workers and unskilled laborers. More than a decade of agitation did finally bring a workday shortened to 10 hours to most industries by the 185O’s, and the courts also recognized workers' right to strike, but these gains had little immediate impact.

Workers were united in resenting the industrial system and their loss of status, but they were divided by ethnic and racial antagonisms, gender, conflicting religious perspectives, occupational differences, political party loyalties, and disagreements over tactics. For them, the factory and industrialism were not agents of opportunity but reminders of their loss of independence and a measure of control over their lives. As United States society became more specialized and differentiated, greater extremes of wealth began to appear. And as the new markets created fortunes for the few, the factory system lowered the wages of workers by dividing labor into smaller, less skilled tasks.

Paragraph 1: Before 1815 manufacturing in the United States had been done in homes or shops by skilled artisans. As master craft workers, they imparted the knowledge of their trades to apprentices and journeymen. In addition, women often worked in their homes part-time, making finished articles from raw material supplied by merchant capitalists. After 181 5 this older form of manufacturing began to give way to factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers. Cheap transportation networks, the rise of cities, and the availability of capital and credit all stimulated the shift to factory production.

1. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about articles manufactured before 1815?

○They were primarily produced by women.

○They were generally produced in shops rather than in homes.

○They were produced with more concern for quality than for speed of production.

○They were produced mostly in large cities with extensive transportation networks.

Paragraph 2: The creation of a labor force that was accustomed to working in factories did not occur easily. Before the rise of the factory, artisans had worked within the home. Apprentices were considered part of the family, and masters were responsible not only for teaching their apprentices a trade but also for providing them some education and for supervising their moral behavior. Journeymen knew that if they perfected their skill, they could become respected master artisans with their own shops. Also, skilled artisans did not work by the clock, at a steady pace, but rather in bursts of intense labor alternating with more leisurely time.

2. Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect answer choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.

○ Masters demanded moral behavior from apprentices but often treated them irresponsibly.

○The responsibilities of the master to the apprentice went beyond the teaching of a trade.

○ Masters preferred to maintain the trade within the family by supervising and educating the younger family members.

○ Masters who trained members of their own family as apprentices demanded excellence from them.

Paragraph 3: The factory changed that. Goods produced by factories were not as finished or elegant as those done by hand, and pride in craftsmanship gave way to the pressure to increase rates of productivity. The new methods of doing business involved a new and stricter sense of time. Factory life necessitated a more regimented schedule, where work began at the sound of a bell and workers kept machines going at a constant pace. At the same time, workers were required to discard old habits, for industrialism demanded a worker who was alert, dependable, and self-disciplined. Absenteeism and lateness hurt productivity and, since work was specialized, disrupted the regular factory routine. Industrialization not only produced a fundamental change in the way work was organized; it transformed the very nature of work.

3. The word disrupted in the passage is closest in meaning to

○Prolonged

○Established

○Followed

○Upset

Paragraph 4: The first generation to experience these changes did not adopt the new attitudes easily. The factory clock became the symbol of the new work rules. One mill worker who finally quit complained revealingly about "obedience to the ding-dong of the bell-just as though we are so many living machines." With the loss of personal freedom also came the loss of standing in the community. Unlike artisan workshops in which apprentices worked closely with the masters supervising them, factories sharply separated workers from management. Few workers rose through the ranks to supervisory positions, and even fewer could achieve the artisan's dream of setting up one's own business. Even well-paid workers sensed their decline in status.

4. In paragraph 4, the author includes the quotation from a mill worker in order to

○Support the idea that it was difficult for workers to adjust to working in factories

○To show that workers sometimes quit because of the loud noise made by factory machinery

○Argue that clocks did not have a useful function in factories

○ Emphasize that factories were most successful when workers revealed their complaints

5. All of the following are mentioned in paragraph 4 as consequences of the new system for workers EXCEPT a loss of

○Freedom

○Status in the community

○Opportunities for advancement

○Contact among workers who were not managers

Paragraph 5: In this newly emerging economic order, workers sometimes organized to protect their rights and traditional ways of life. Craft workers such as carpenters, printers, and tailors formed unions, and in 1834 individual unions came together in the National Trades' Union. The labor movement gathered some momentum in the decade before the Panic of 1837, but in the depression that followed, labor's strength collapsed. During hard times, few workers were willing to strike_or engage in collective action. And skilled craft workers, who spearheaded the union movement, did not feel a particularly strong bond with semiskilled factory workers and unskilled laborers. More than a decade of agitation did finally bring a workday shortened to 10 hours to most industries by the 185O’s, and the courts also recognized workers' right to strike, but these gains had little immediate impact.

6. The phrase gathered some momentum in the passage is closest in meaning to

○Made progress

○B(yǎng)ecame active

○Caused changes

○Combined forces

7. The word spearheaded in the passage is closest in meaning to

○Led

○Accepted

○Changed

○Resisted

8. Which of the following statements about the labor movement of the 1800's is supported by paragraph 5?

○It was most successful during times of economic crisis.

○Its primary purpose was to benefit unskilled laborers.

○It was slow to improve conditions for workers.

○It helped workers of all skill levels form a strong bond with each other.

Paragraph 6: Workers were united in resenting the industrial system and their loss of status, but they were divided by ethnic and racial antagonisms, gender, conflicting religious perspectives, occupational differences, political party loyalties, and disagreements over tactics. For them, the factory and industrialism were not agents of opportunity but reminders of their loss of independence and a measure of control over their lives. As United States society became more specialized and differentiated, greater extremes of wealth began to appear. And as the new markets created fortunes for the few, the factory system lowered the wages of workers by dividing labor into smaller, less skilled tasks.

9. The author identifies political party loyalties, and disagreements over tactics as two of several factors that

○Encouraged workers to demand higher wages

○Created divisions among workers

○Caused work to become more specialized

○Increased workers' resentment of the industrial system

10. The word them in the passage refers to

○Workers

○Political patty loyalties

○Disagreements over tactics

○Agents of opportunity

參考答案：

1. ○3

This is an Inference question asking for an inference that can be supported by the passage. The correct answer is choice 3, "They were produced with more concern for quality than for speed of production." A number of statements throughout the passage support choice 3. Paragraph 1 states that "Before 1815 manufacturing in the United States had been done in homes or shops by skilled artisans . . . After 18 15 this older form of manufacturing began to give way to factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers." Paragraph 2 states that "Before the rise of the factory . . . skilled artisans did not work by the clock, at a steady pace, but rather in bursts of intense labor alternating with more leisurely time." Paragraph 3 states, "The factory changed that.Goods produced by factories were not as finished or elegant as those done by hand, and pride in craftsmanship gave way to the pressure to increase rates of productivity." Taken together, these three statements, about production rates, the rise of factories after 18 15, and the decline of craftsmanship after 18 15, support the inference that before 18 15, the emphasis had been on quality rather than on speed of production. Answer choices 1, 2, and 4 are all contradicted by the passage.

2. ○2

This is a Sentence Simplification question. As with all of these items, a single sentence in the passage is highlighted: Apprentices were considered part of the family, and masters were responsible not only for teaching their apprentices a trade but also for providing them some education and for supervising their moral behavior. The correct answer is choice 2. Choice 2 contains all of the essential information in the highlighted sentence. The highlighted sentence explains why (part of the family) and how (education, moral behavior) a master's responsibility went beyond teaching a trade. The essential information is the fact that the master's responsibility went beyond teaching a trade. Therefore, choice 2 contains all that is essential without changing the meaning of the highlighted sentence.Choice 1 changes the meaning of the highlighted sentence b~ stating that masters often treated apprentices irresponsibly.Choice 3 contradicts the essential meaning of the highlighted sentence. The fact that "Apprentices were considered part of the family . . . " suggests that they were not actual family members.Choice 4, like choice 3, changes the meaning of the highlighted sentence by discussing family members as apprentices.

3. ○4

This is a Vocabulary question. The word being tested is disrupted. It is highlighted in the passage. The correct answer is choice 4, "upset." The word "upset" here is used in the context of "hurting productivity." When something is hurt or damaged, it is "upset."

4. ○1

This is a Factual Information question asking for specific information that can be found in paragraph 4. The correct answer is choice I, "support the idea that it was difficult for workers to adjust to working in factories." The paragraph begins by stating that workers did not adopt new attitudes toward work easily and that the clock symbolized the new work rules. The author provides the quotation as evidence of that difficulty. There is no indication in the paragraph that workers quit due to loud noise, so choice 2 is incorrect. Choice 3 (usefulness of clocks) is contradicted by the paragraph. The factory clock was "useful," but workers hated it. Choice 4 (workers complaints as a cause of a factory's success) is not discussed in this paragraph.

5. ○4

This is a Negative Factual Information question asking for specific information that can be found in paragraph 4. Choice 4, "contact among workers who were not managers," is the correct answer. The paragraph explicitly contradicts this by stating that "factories sharply separated workers from management." The paragraph explicitly states that workers lost choice I (freedom), choice 2 (status in the community), and choice 3 (opportunities for advancement) in the new system, so those choices are all incorrect.

6. ○1

This is a Vocabulary question. The phrase being tested is "gathered some momentum." It is highlighted in the passage. The correct answer is choice I, "made progress." To "gather momentum" means to advance with increasing speed.

7. ○1

This is a Vocabulary question. The word being tested is spearheaded. It is highlighted in the passage. The correct answer is choice 1, "led." The head of a spear leads the rest of the spear, so the crafts workers who "spearheaded" this movement led it.

8. ○3

This is a Factual Information question asking for specific information that can be found in paragraph 5. The correct answer is choice 3, "It was slow to improve conditions for workers." The paragraph states, "More than a decade of agitation did finally bring a workday shortened to 10 hours to most industries by the 1850's, and the courts also recognized workers' right to strike, but these gains had little immediate impact." This statement explicitly supports choice 3. All three other choices are contradicted by the paragraph.

9. ○2

This is a Factual Information question asking for specific information about a particular phrase in the passage. The phrase in question is highlighted in the passage. The correct answer is choice 2, "created divisions among workers." The paragraph states (emphasis added): " . . . they (workers) were divided by ethnic and racial antagonisms, gender; conflicting religious perspectives, occupational differences, political part loyalties, and disagreements over tactics." So "political party loyalties and disagreements over tactics'' are explicitly stared as two causes of division among workers. The other choices are not stated and are incorrect.

10. ○1

This is a Reference question. The word being tested is them. It is highlighted in the passage. This is a simple pronoun-referent item. The word them in this sentence refers to those people to whom "the factory and industrialism were not agents of opportunity but reminders of their loss of independence and a measure of control over their lives." Choice 1, "Workers," is the only choice that refers to this type of person, so it is the correct answer.

11. ○4

This is an Insert Text question. You can see the four black squares in paragraph 1 that represent the possible answer choices here. Before 1815 manufacturing in the United States had been done in homes or shops by skilled artisans. ■ As master craft workers, they imparted the knowledge of their trades to apprentices and journeymen. ■ In addition, women often worked in their homes part-time, making finished articles from raw material supplied by merchant capitalists. W After 1815 this older form of manufacturing began to give way to factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers. ■ Cheap transportation networks, the rise of cities, and the availability of capital and credit all stimulated the shift to factory production. The sentence provided, "This new form of manufacturing depended on the movement of goods to distant locations and a centralized source of laborers," is best inserted at square 4. The inserted sentence refers explicitly to "a new form of manufacturing." This "new form of manufacturing" is the one mentioned in the sentence preceding square 4, "factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers." The inserted sentence then explains that this new system depended on "the movement of goods to distant locations and a centralized source of laborers." The sentence that follows square 4 goes on to say, "Cheap transportation networks, the rise of cities, and the availability of capital and credit all stimulated the shift to factory production." Thus the inserted sentence contains references to both the sentence before square 4 and the sentence after square 4. This is not true of any of the other possible insert points, so square 4 is the correct answer.

12. ○○B(yǎng)efore 1815: 2 6 1815-1850: 3 5 7

This is a Fill in a Table question. It is completed correctly below. The correct choices for the "Before 18 15" column are 2 and 6. Choices 3, 5, and 7 belong in the "1815-1 850" column. Choices 1 and 4 should not be used in either column.

托福閱讀難度及題型的信息

機(jī)考模式

新托福閱讀考試分兩種模式：Short Format以及Long Format。前者歷時(shí)60分鐘，要求學(xué)生在規(guī)定時(shí)間里完成三篇閱讀約36-42道題目;而后者則將考試時(shí)間拉長(zhǎng)至100分鐘，按需完成60-70道題目。

本來(lái)這對(duì)學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)只是“小菜一碟”，但自從新托福將考試形式由筆試改為電腦操作，這對(duì)很多人來(lái)說(shuō)無(wú)疑是“當(dāng)頭一棒”。也許對(duì)大多數(shù)人來(lái)說(shuō)看幾個(gè)小時(shí)的網(wǎng)上新聞或是打上半天的游戲都不是什么新鮮事兒，但面對(duì)屏幕做上一兩個(gè)小時(shí)的題目倒真不是隨便可以信手拈來(lái)的。

建議各位正在準(zhǔn)備托福 閱讀備考的同學(xué)，平時(shí)要養(yǎng)成習(xí)慣通過(guò)電腦來(lái)閱讀，至于閱讀的內(nèi)容將會(huì)在第四個(gè)點(diǎn)里再作詳細(xì)介紹。關(guān)于這一點(diǎn)的備考和寫(xiě)作的備考策略是一致的，大家可以結(jié)合起來(lái)一起準(zhǔn)備。

考試強(qiáng)度

無(wú)論是Short Format還是Longre Format，托福閱讀考試強(qiáng)度上對(duì)考生的要求都是相當(dāng)大的，新托福閱讀部分每篇文章字?jǐn)?shù)增至了700字左右。然而，在新托福閱讀當(dāng)中，對(duì)于初學(xué)者來(lái)說(shuō)最難的不是單詞，而是要求在規(guī)定時(shí)間里完成規(guī)定的題數(shù)。

新托福閱讀不同于CET4，CET6，與高考也有很大區(qū)別，因?yàn)镃ET4、CET6與高考的閱讀考試大都是提供約4-5篇文章，然后出20道選擇題，要求考生根據(jù)所讀文章答題。最大的不同在于這些考試都沒(méi)有要求做完每個(gè)科目考試所用的時(shí)間。

因此很多同學(xué)在一開(kāi)始做托福 閱讀的時(shí)候，十分不適應(yīng)托福閱讀的時(shí)間限制，有的人甚至在考前都沒(méi)有克服這個(gè)問(wèn)題。有的同學(xué)在考試前總是按一篇文章來(lái)練，認(rèn)為自己在20分鐘內(nèi)(按總的時(shí)間平均分配到每篇閱讀文章的用時(shí))完成12-14題綽綽有余。但問(wèn)題在于托?？荚嚥⒎且黄黄獊?lái)考，而是將3篇或5篇看作一個(gè)整體來(lái)考驗(yàn)學(xué)生對(duì)強(qiáng)度的適應(yīng)能力。

由此建議考生在托福 閱讀備考期間一定要養(yǎng)成3篇一練或者5篇一練的習(xí)慣，培養(yǎng)自己在規(guī)定時(shí)間里完成盡可能多的題數(shù)，并保證一定的正確率。

有很多的專(zhuān)業(yè)考生，因?yàn)槠綍r(shí)課業(yè)負(fù)擔(dān)較大，可用于支配學(xué)習(xí)托福的時(shí)間有限，希望在考前通過(guò)高強(qiáng)度的課程學(xué)習(xí)來(lái)提高考試成績(jī)。

針對(duì)基礎(chǔ)較好短期內(nèi)需要考試的學(xué)生，我們推薦學(xué)生采用75%的正課占比，側(cè)重于個(gè)性化的考試應(yīng)對(duì)，針對(duì)自己薄弱的地方，對(duì)癥下藥，并輔以適量的配套訓(xùn)練來(lái)檢測(cè)學(xué)習(xí)效果，確保對(duì)知識(shí)點(diǎn)的掌握。

托福閱讀題型變化

考試題型的主要變化在于題型中增加了詞匯解釋題、填表、插入句子和完成段落等。根據(jù)新托福閱讀測(cè)試的目的，考生需要在平時(shí)訓(xùn)練中著重培養(yǎng)和加強(qiáng)三種閱讀技能，即信息定位能力、速讀理解能力和研讀整理能力，來(lái)幫助自己適應(yīng)新題型。

這一點(diǎn)表現(xiàn)出新托?？荚囬喿x明顯雅思化，因此增加題目并不意味著增加難度，其難度體現(xiàn)在考生對(duì)題型的熟悉程度?？梢哉f(shuō)，新托福閱讀內(nèi)容的難度降低，于是便通過(guò)題型變化增加難度，因此閱讀理解部分并不需要過(guò)于擔(dān)心，關(guān)鍵是了解題型。

知識(shí)面和信息量

大家都知道，做題基于托福 閱讀讀文章的基礎(chǔ)之上，因此增進(jìn)閱讀能力會(huì)對(duì)完成題目起到至關(guān)重要的作用。在備考階段，大家要多讀各類(lèi)題材的文章。新托福閱讀測(cè)試的選材大多涉及自然科學(xué) (天文、地質(zhì)、生物學(xué)等)、人文和社會(huì)科學(xué)(文學(xué)、歷史、人類(lèi)學(xué)、社會(huì)學(xué)等)以及藝術(shù)和商務(wù)等學(xué)科領(lǐng)域。多閱讀這些文章，一方面可以了解相關(guān)的常識(shí)和背景知識(shí)，同時(shí)可借此機(jī)會(huì)熟悉不同學(xué)科的常用詞匯。

各類(lèi)書(shū)籍、報(bào)刊及網(wǎng)上文章都可以選擇作為練習(xí)閱讀的材料，如果是選取帶有一定學(xué)術(shù)性的文章或大學(xué)教材則是再好也沒(méi)有了。這一點(diǎn)大家可以結(jié)合適應(yīng)“機(jī)考”這一變化來(lái)共同實(shí)現(xiàn)更多地去選擇在電腦上閱讀文章而非實(shí)際的報(bào)紙或雜志。

托福閱讀只要找出最優(yōu)選項(xiàng)即可

托福閱讀不管復(fù)習(xí)的如何也不管考試時(shí)你是怎么做的托福閱讀試題，只要結(jié)果對(duì)了就好，那么這時(shí)一些托福閱讀技巧可能就非常有用了，下面就來(lái)看看具體該如何做選擇的的方法，希望對(duì)大家有所幫助。

在進(jìn)行托福閱讀訓(xùn)練的時(shí)候，如果你只是堅(jiān)持找關(guān)鍵詞，卻忽視了其他的一些短語(yǔ)，尋找題目中的詞語(yǔ)在文章中是否出現(xiàn)，那么你的托福閱讀分?jǐn)?shù)是很難提升的。注意關(guān)鍵詞不是托福閱讀考試的一切。

這里必須承認(rèn)，當(dāng)正確答案是原文重現(xiàn)的時(shí)候，我們?nèi)ゲ捎?，原文?dāng)中出現(xiàn)的詞，在正確答案之中也出現(xiàn)，這種做題方法，從理論上是說(shuō)得通的。但是事情往往不是這么簡(jiǎn)單!這里有可能出現(xiàn)問(wèn)題的點(diǎn)，就是在于“最優(yōu)選項(xiàng)”。

所謂的托福閱讀試題最優(yōu)選項(xiàng)，一種可能形式與原文更為接近的選項(xiàng)。另一種可能性，則是排除掉其中3個(gè)錯(cuò)誤答案，最后得到那個(gè)與原文關(guān)系不大，但是也沒(méi)有明顯錯(cuò)誤的選項(xiàng)。

這里很顯然，最優(yōu)選項(xiàng)之中的正確答案，都不是可以通過(guò)簡(jiǎn)單的尋找哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)之中的詞，在原文之中也出現(xiàn)這種方法來(lái)解決的。而且考慮到中國(guó)考生在閱讀之中必須拿到27分以上的成績(jī)，因此，細(xì)節(jié)題和句子簡(jiǎn)化題是絕對(duì)不被允許錯(cuò)的!因此，這種通過(guò)簡(jiǎn)單的尋找一一對(duì)應(yīng)的詞匯的方法也是行不通的。

此路不通，另尋他路。那這種托福閱讀技巧是什么?其實(shí)很簡(jiǎn)單，就是讀懂!哪怕你不能完全懂，退而求其次，其中的邏輯關(guān)系一定要懂!或者說(shuō)，對(duì)于托福閱讀來(lái)說(shuō)，核心的內(nèi)容就是要弄清其中的邏輯關(guān)系。不過(guò)，句子之中的邏輯關(guān)系，并不是簡(jiǎn)單的so，because這些連詞，里面的邏輯更多指的是，各種動(dòng)詞所體現(xiàn)出來(lái)的因果關(guān)系，這才是核心。

換句話說(shuō)，在準(zhǔn)備托福閱讀的時(shí)候，應(yīng)該盡一切可能去讀懂每一個(gè)句子之中的每一點(diǎn)細(xì)節(jié)，只有這樣才是拿到高分的捷徑!而不是，去通過(guò)只言片語(yǔ)進(jìn)行猜測(cè)，通過(guò)猜測(cè)考托福，只能是死路一條。
