英語四級閱讀題在考試時是最好得分的客觀題部分，考前復習時，同學們也對這部分最感興趣，既然如此，備考階段怎能沒點準備?下面新東方在線英語四級頻道為大家?guī)碛⒄Z四級閱讀高頻考點：特殊標點處，希望對大家有幫助!

1. 引號

1)尤其是當引號表示著重強調(diào)時

如：

They are using fewer of the very deferential “women’s” forms, and even using the few strong forms that are know as “men’s” .

2)某人說的話，能夠集中表達一個事實或觀點時

如：

"If it's a loss [where] you're not getting to work, and family relationships are breaking down as a result, then it's too much." said Maressa Orzack, a Harvard University professor.

例1(引號)：Toebe also regularly visits a site where posters discuss Internet overuse. In August, when she first realized she had a problem, she posted a message on a Yahoo Internet addiction group with the subject line: "I have an Internet Addiction."(2010, 6, cet4)

8. In one of the messages she posted on a website, Toebe admitted that she ______.;

【答案】had an Internet Addiction

【解析】首先分析結(jié)構(gòu)可知，本空所填內(nèi) 容是充當that賓語從句的謂語，主句的admitted表明謂語應(yīng)用過去時。原文提到Toebe在雅虎的一個上網(wǎng)成癮群里發(fā)了一條消息，引號中的內(nèi)容為 這條小的的主題：“我有網(wǎng)癮”。由此可知，Toebe承認自己“上網(wǎng)成癮”。故答案根據(jù)時態(tài)要求進行修改為：had an Internet Addiction.

2. 小括號

小括號()中間加一個漢語注釋，非常容易引起大家的注意。此處就不贅述。我們還是通過真題舉例來看具體考察情況吧。

例2：(小括號)The use of deferential (敬重的) language is symbolic of the Confucian ideal of the woman, which dominates conservative gender norms in Japan. This ideal presents a woman who withdraws quietly to the background, subordinating her life and needs to those of her family and its male head. She is a dutiful daughter, wife, and mother, master of the domestic arts. The typical refined Japanese woman excels in modesty and delicacy; she “treads softly (謹言慎行)in the world,” elevating feminine beauty and grace to an art form.

57. The first paragraph describes in detail ________.

A. the standards set for contemporary Japanese women

B. the Confucian influence on gender norms in Japan

C. the stereotyped role of women in Japanese families

D. the norms for traditional Japanese women to follow

【答案】D

【解析】考點出處是第一段的總述話語，它介紹了日本女性在說話時使用敬語是女性完美標準的象征，其后面幾句是對這種保守性別規(guī)范下女性美德的詳細描述，所以正確答案為D。
