2020考研英語：閱讀技巧之小符號的秘密！希望小編的整理可以幫助到你和小編一起來看看吧！ 　　1、逗號 　　用于分割并列成分?？佳兄攸c：兩個逗號之間，或者一個逗號之后，如果是補充說明成分時，跳過不看。Eg. Some huge American industries, such as consumer electronics, had shrunk or vanished in the face of foreign competition. 　　2、句號 　?、儆糜陉愂鼍洌硎疽粋€句子的結(jié)束， 起分割切分句子作用。 　?、谟糜谀承┛s略詞之后。比如Mr.、 Ms.、 etc。等等。如果句號作為簡寫符號使用，那么這個詞語簡寫前后面的符號應(yīng)該照常寫上，因為簡寫號并非句號，也不遵循句號的語法。比如Entreprise Co., Ltd或者I invited Tom, Jerry, etc。(注意兩個點) 　　③用作小數(shù)點 　　3、問號 　　考研英語閱讀文章中的問號一般都是設(shè)問的功能，只問不答，答案不言自明。Eg1. 考研難道沒有價值嗎?另外，如果開篇就是問句，那么則屬于問題答案型文章，對問題的回答就是全文主旨。 　　4、冒號 　　冒號前后是從抽象到具體的過程，后面進一步補充說明前面的內(nèi)容。 　　Eg.1997 passage 3 Q2 　　60. The word "pervasive" (Line 1, Paragraph 2) might mean ________。 　　[A] widespread [B] overwhelming 　　[C] piercing [D] fashionable 　　We live in a society in which the medicinal and social use of substances (drugs) is pervasive: an aspirin to quiet a headache, some wine to be sociable, coffee to get going in the morning, a cigarette for the nerves。 　　5、分號 　　前后是并列關(guān)系，包括結(jié)構(gòu)上并列和語義上的并列。 　　For us, this means that evolution is over; the biological Utopia has arrived. (2000 Passage2) 　　6、引號 　?、僖?②強調(diào) ③諷刺 　　Eg1 "Scientific" creationism, which is being pushed by some for "equal time" in the classrooms whenever the scientific accounts of evolution are given, is based on religion, not science。 　　7、括號 　　①解釋說明生詞;②補充說明

　　Drugs (substances) that affect the central nervous system and alter perception, mood, and behavior are known as psychoactive substances. (1997，Text 3) 　　8、破折號 　?、僖粋€破折號后面起補充說明或評價判斷。 　　I am an idiot - the stupidest kind of all。 　　"This book stands for reason itself。" And so it does - and all would be well were reason the only judge in the creationism/evolution debate。 　?、趦善普厶栔g其補充說明，可先跳過不看。 　　In Australia-where an aging population, life-extending technology and changing community attitudes have all played their part-other states are going to consider making a similar law to deal with euthanasia。 　　9、省略號 　　英文中的省略號的作用和漢語是一樣的。當(dāng)省略號在句尾并且有下文時，應(yīng)該打四個點，后面一個為句號。如：And it flew further, and further, and further.... Jorge smiled and turned back。當(dāng)省略號在句尾并作為語氣延長的作用時，應(yīng)使用修辭前的標(biāo)點，如：Do you love me...?其余情況下使用三個點。如：The Martians...they just...just bombed our...our town, please send...more.
