在英一试卷中，新题型主要由三种题型组成—填空式阅读，段落排序题以及标题匹配题。今天我们来着重讲一讲段落排序题。

信息匹配题要求考生对一篇乱序的六七个段落，依次排序。其中一到两段已经给出明确的段落。这个题目最大的特点就是一步错，可能导致步步错。大家在备考的时候可能会存在为难情绪，值得一提的是，有的考生可能“祈祷”不要考这个题。其实，这种看似很难的题，是有很强的技巧性的，如果大家掌握了我们的解题技巧，题目难度其实不是很大，主要考察了我们考生的段落衔接意识和理解能力。面对这一道题时，我们可以运用如下技巧来进行解题：

拿到题目，浏览六/七个选项，标注选项中(尤其是首句和末句)鲜明的衔接标志词(例如指代，数字，逻辑关系词，时间顺序等);

如果首段没有给出，则需要先确定首段;如果首段已经给出，则按照顺序注意解题，注意关注选项首句和末句的衔接关系。

可以打破常规，如判断某两段文字必然衔接，结合题目顺序，进行反推。通读文章，检查一致性和连贯性。[page]

下面，我们就以2018年英语一的段落推断题为例，进行详细的讲解和说明：

Part B

Directions:

The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 41-45, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G to filling them into the numbered box. Paragraphs B and D have been correctly placed. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)

[A] The first published sketch, "A Dinner at Poplar Walk" brought tears to Dickens's eyes when he discovered it in the pages of The Monthly Magazine. From then on his sketches ,which appeared under the pen name "Boz" in The Evening Chronicle, earned him a modest reputation.

[B] The runaway success of The Pickwick Papers, as it is generally known today, secured Dickens's fame. There were Pickwick coats and Pickwick cigars, and the plump, spectacled hero, Samuel Pickwick, became a national figure.

[C] Soon after Sketches by Boz appeared, a publishing firm approached Dickens to write a story in monthly installments, as a backdrop for a series of woodcuts by the ten-famous artist Robert Seymour, who had originated the idea for the story. With characteristic confidence, Dickens successfully insisted that Seymour's pictures illustrate his own story instead. After the first installment, Dickens wrote to the artist and asked him to correct a drawing Dickens felt was not faithful enough to his prose. Seymour made the change, went into his backyard, and expressed his displeasure by committing suicide. Dickens and his publishers simply pressed on with a new artist. The comic novel, The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, appeared serially in 1836 and 1837, and was first published in book form in 1837.

[D] Charles Dickens is probably the best-known and, to many people, the greatest English novelist of the 19th century. A moralist, satirist, and social reformer. Dickens crafted complex plots and striking characters that capture the panorama of English society.

[E] Soon after his father's release from prison, Dickens got a better job as errand boy in law offices. He taught himself shorthand to get an even better job later as a court stenographer and as a reporter in Parliament. At the same time, Dickens, who had a reporter's eye for transcribing the life around him especially anything comic or odd, submitted short sketches to obscure magazines.

[F] Dickens was born in Portsmouth, on England's southern coast. His father was a clerk in the British navy pay office -a respectable position, but wish little social status. His paternal grandparents, a steward and a housekeeper possessed even less status, having been servants, and Dickens later concealed their background. Dicken's mother supposedly came from a more respectable family. Yet two years before Dicken's birth, his mother's father was caught stealing and fled to Europe, never to return. The family's increasing poverty forced Dickens out of school at age 12 to work in Warren's Blacking Warehouse, a shoe-polish factory, where the other working boys mocked him as "the young gentleman." His father was then imprisoned for debt. The humiliations of his father's imprisonment and his labor in the blacking factory formed Dicken's greatest wound and became his deepest secret. He could not confide them even to his wife, although they provide the unacknowledged foundation of his fiction.

[G] After Pickwick, Dickens plunged into a bleaker world. In Oliver Twist, e traces an orphan's progress from the workhouse to the criminal slums of London. Nicholas Nickleby, his next novel, combines the darkness of Oliver Twist with the sunlight of Pickwick. The popularity of these novels consolidated Dichens' as a nationally and internationally celebrated man of letters.

D → 41__. → 42___. → 43___. → 44___. → B →45___.

第一步，浏览六/七个选项，标注选项中(尤其是首句和末句)鲜明的衔接标志词(例如指代，数字，逻辑关系词，时间顺序等)：

A首：The first published sketch 末：无

B首：The runaway success of The Pickwick Papers 末：无

C首：Soon after Sketches by Boz appeared 末：The comic novel, The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, appeared serially in 1836 and 1837, and was first published in book form in 1837.

D首：Charles Dickens is probably the best-known(全名) 末：无

E首：Soon after his father’s release from prison 末：无

F首：Dickens was born in Portsmouth, on England's southern coast.(人物生平介绍应该位于文章靠前部分) His father was a clerk... 末：无

G首：After Pickwick, 末：无

第二步，如果首段没有给出，则需要先确定首段;如果首段已经给出，则按照顺序注意解题，注意关注选项首句和末句的衔接关系。

A首：The first published sketch 末：无

B首：The runaway success of The Pickwick Papers 末：无

C首：Soon after Sketches by Boz appeared 末：The comic novel, The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, appeared serially in 1836 and 1837, and was first published in book form in 1837.

D首：Charles Dickens is probably the best-known(全名) 末：无

E首：Soon after his father’s release from prison 末：无

F首：Dickens was born in Portsmouth, on England's southern coast.(人物生平介绍应该位于文章靠前部分) His father was a clerk... 末：无

G首：After Pickwick, 末：无

根据文章后的题目顺序，首段D已经给出。接下来观察文章的首末段衔接：

1.C项末尾提到了The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, appeared，B首提到 The runaway success of The Pickwick Papers，可以推知：C B相连。

2. F项首句提到His father was a clerk... E项首句提到了Soon after his father’s release from prison.可知 FE相连。

3. G项首句也提到了After Pickwick可知，CBG相连。

D → 41__. → 42___. → 43___. → 44_C__. → B →45_G__.

结合选项空位，整合一下思路，可以得出答案：44. C， 45. B。因为FE相连，其只有可能在 41. 42或者 42. 43两个位置，那么我们只需要衡量 D后面是A 还是 F即可。将选项以此带入:

. 假设D末与A首相连：

D末大致含义：查尔斯狄更斯的简介。

A首：出版了某个东西

再看一下DF的可能性：

. 假设 D末与F首相连：

F首：狄更斯出生在某地

比较两个选项可以得知，DF链接更自然，因此前四个空应该是 DFEA，再次我们可以根据A的位置进行验证，比较A末和C首，A末：Boz... C首也出现了Boz，衔接顺畅，可以证明AC相连。

所以答案最终为 41. F，42 E 43. A，将答案填到方框中：

D → 41_F_. → 42_E__. → 43__A_. → 44_C__. → B →45_G__.

【答案】

41. [F] Dickens was born in Portsmouth

42. [E] Soon after his father's release from prison

43. [A]The first published sketch

44. [C]Soon after Sketches by Boz appeared

45. [G] After Pickwick, Dickens plunged into a bleaker world

下面总结一下这套题的解题方法，首先在拿到题目后，浏览六/七个选项，标注选项首句和末句鲜明的衔接标志。结合首段已经给出，按照顺序注意解题，注意关注选项首句和末句的衔接关系，结合选项可以判断文章中两段文字必然衔接，再结合题目顺序，进行反推。最后，通读文章，检查一致性和连贯性。2017年这套题目难度在往年中属于难度适中的题目，难点在于找到衔接关系，对此大家一定要耐得住性子，细心寻找段落首末衔接处(如原词或者指代还原)。不过在大家讲我们的解题技巧内化之后，就可以化难为简，同学们在可以可以结合往年试题多加练习，攻克新题型中的段落排序题。
