托福阅读句子插入题——如何做到无缝衔接朗阁海外考试研究中心郑虹句子插入题(Insert Text Questions)是托福阅读考试必考题型，出现在每一篇文章倒数第二题，大部分考生在做此题时遇到模棱两可的答案情况较多，容易选错。朗阁海外考试研究中心的专家将针对这个问题，具体分析句子插入题的考试特点及解题技巧。一、题型特点句子插入题顾名思义就是给一句新的句子，要求考生们把这个句子插入到相应的位置，指定位置是文章中四个黑色方块的地方。这些方块分布在句首或句末，四个方框有时都出现在一个段落里，有时分布在一段的末尾和下一段的开头。考题形式如下：Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where the following sentence could be added to the passage.[…………………]Where would the sentence best fit?同学们要做的是点击其中的一个方块并将这个句子插入文章。句子插入题考查的内容是句子与句子间的逻辑关系，即所插入句子必须和前后句子在逻辑关系上保持一致。其实和我们写作一样，同学们不能把两句毫无关系的句子放在一起。那么在英语里为了体现句与句之间的逻辑关系，会采用各种衔接手段将句子连接起来，所以我们只要熟悉各种句子衔接手段，我们就能立即判断出来句子所插入的相应位置。以下，我们将对考试中经常出现的几种衔接手段进行详细分析。二、解题方法1. 词重复适用这种衔接方法简单粗暴明了，无需花费大量脑细胞，完全是送分题。后面一个句子里重复使用前面句子提到的同一个词（通常是名词），使用此方法，我们可以清楚知道作者仍然在谈论同一主题，因为前后句子在意义上关系密切，互相连贯。Their competition and collaboration were creating the broadcasting industryin the United States, beginning with the introduction of commercial radio programming in the early 1920s. ■With financial assets considerably greater than those in the motion picture industry, and perhaps a wider vision of the relationships among entertainment and communications media, they revitalized research into recording sound for motion pictures. ■In 1929 the United States motion picture industry released more than 300 sound films—a rough figure, since a number were silent films with music tracks, or films prepared in dual versions, to take account of the many cinemas not yet wired for sound. ■At the production level, in the United States the conversion was virtually complete by 1930. ■In Europe it took a little longer, mainly because there were more small producers for whom the costs of sound were prohibitive…Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where the following sentence could be added to the passage.When this research resulted in the development of vastly improved sound techniques, film studios became convinced of the importance of converting to sound.前面一句话已经提及到了research, 第二次出现用this research,所以答案选第二个选项。So, in another set of experiments, Kramer pu
