第三点：转折关系常考
我们在听力中经常听到某个男孩子约女孩子出去玩，女孩子一般回答。I’d love to, but I am busy now.显然强调的不是I’d love to而是but I am busy now.阅读中也是一样，出现but/however/whereas等表示转折的词引导的语句往往成为细节题的出题点。
例文：
All these early dives were deep. But the divers could not stay down for very long. They had to come back up to the surface after a few seconds. Scientists needed to stay down longer to study life below surface. Gradually they succeeded, Cousteau, a Frenchman, was able to keep men down to a depth of 36 feet for one month and to a depth of 90 feet for a week.
1. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The early divers could not stay down for very long
B. Up to now only five women scientists have stayed in the undersea laboratory
C. The purpose of undersea laboratories is to make plans for the resources in the ocean
D. It is easy to explore the plant and animal life in the deep ocean
点评：通过文章中的All these early dives were deep. But the divers could not stay down for very long我们可以知道正确答案是A。而其中的B选项可以利用“十大无赖原则”中的绝对化选项原则将其排除，因为出现only等绝对化的选项过于极端，往往是错误选项。
第四点：比较关系常考
这点同学们平时注意得很少，但是如果同学们有心，可以回去看一看你们考过的卷子就会发现比较关系出现的地方，十之八九都会有考题出现，当然这里的比较关系及包括了比较级也包括了级。原因很简单，比较关系涉及几个事物之间的比较，能够很好地说明事物的特征，这样的句子，对于出题老师来说具有很大的诱惑力。
例文：
Along the way, Pittsburgh University has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Boy students send out more heat than girl students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It sounds rather reasonable to draw the following conclusion that the hottest prospect for the Pittsburgh University would be a hardworking, overweight boy student who is very clever in the university.
1. Which of the following persons would produce the least heat?
A. A fat boy students who is clever and studies hard
B. A thin girl students who is not clever and does not study hard
C. A thin boy students who is clever and studied hard
D. A fat girl students who is both clever and hardworking
2. In the last sentence, the “hottest prospect” refers to
A. the person who produces the most heat
B. the person who suffers most from heat
C. the person who takes in the most heat
D. the person who bears the most heat
点评：由原文中比较级出现的部分不难得出第一题答案为B，第二题答案为A。
