① 本课题型(Palm oil 棕榈油)
| 题号 | 题型 | 打法 |
|---|---|---|
| 14–20 | Which section contains the following information?(A–H 段落信息匹配) | 先看题干关键词,回文找"哪一段讲了这件事" |
| 21–22 | Choose TWO letters(A–E) | 多选:选两个,错一个就丢分 |
| 23–26 | Complete the sentences:NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS | 填空:先删修饰,找出主干 |
② 三步法(板书)
- 先找动词(句子的心脏在哪);
- 概括出来简单中文意思;
- 双向猜测(题干 → 文章,文章 → 题干)。
另外一条:不知道的单词,用英语读出来——声音对了,答案常常就浮出来。
③ 猜出题人的心态
- 爱出题的地方:专有名词(机构名)、新鲜的技术、大写词;
- 句子层面:极端值(most / only / all)、倒装句、however 转折、问句;
- 问句—回答型(反问 / why 引导)100% 出答案;最高级和副词也是信号词。
④ 逐题定位(14–20)
| 题 | 题干关键 | 定位线索 / 板书批注 |
|---|---|---|
| 14 | examples of a range of potential environmental advantages of palm tree cultivation | 找"好处"并列出现的地方 |
| 15 | description of an organisation which controls the environmental impact of palm oil production | controls the environmental impact = RSPO(一个机构) |
| 16 | the most consumed… | 消费最多(最高级 = 信号词) |
| 17 | examples of the widespread global use of palm oil | soap / 日用品那一串 |
| 18 | reference to a particular species which could … of oil palm plantations | 某个具体物种 |
| 19 | figures illustrating the rapid expansion of the palm industry | 从少变多:6 千万吨 / from 2 百万、50 年前 / 可能翻倍 |
| 20 | an economic justification for not opposing the palm industry | RSPO 达到标准 / RSPO 坚持不能破坏环境 → 所以"全透明" |
⑤ RSPO 两道多选(21–22)
| 选项 | 内容 |
|---|---|
| A | Its membership has grown steadily over the course of the last decade.(最近十年成员变多) |
| B | It demands that certified producers be open and honest about their practices. |
| C | It took several years to establish its palm oil certification.(花了好几年建立标准) |
| D | Its regulations regarding sustainability are stricter than those governing other industries. |
| E | It was formed at the request of environmentalists concerned about the loss of virgin forests. |
提醒:别只看选项里的原词,回文确认"是不是这个机构做的"。
⑥ 填空四句(23–26)
- 23 One advantage of palm oil for manufacturers is that it stays solid when not refrigerated.(常温不化)
- 24 The Sumatran orangutan(苏门答腊猩猩)is the best known of the animals suffering habitat loss as a result of the spread of oil palm plantations.
- 25 As one of its criteria for the certification of sustainable palm oil, the RSPO insists that growers check ___ on a routine basis.(找"例行检查")
- 26 …the bird's nest fern(鸟巢蕨)could…
方法:把修饰的字删掉,只留主干,再回去定位那个词。
⑦ 文章核心词块
| 词块 | 意思 |
|---|---|
| palm oil / edible oil | 棕榈油 / 食用油 |
| be derived from | 源自(be derived from the African oil palm tree) |
| the most consumed vegetable oil | 消费最多的植物油 |
| unique properties | 独特的性质 |

⑧ 长难句一眼扫
How best to strike a utilitarian balance between these competing factors has become a serious bone of contention.
主语是"疑问词 + 不定式"整体(how best to strike…),has become 才是谓语。先找动词,再概括中文:怎么在这些互相拉扯的因素之间取得一个实用的平衡,已经成了争议焦点。
