常見閱讀考點(diǎn)出處之四—標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號
　　下面講解閱讀考點(diǎn)常考出處的后一個(gè)特征：總有部分題目出自引人注目的 —— 標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號處。在四六級閱讀過程中，引人注目的標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號，不得不關(guān)注的標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號主要有兩類：1. 引號;2. 小括號。
　　1. 引號
　　1)尤其是當(dāng)引號表示著重強(qiáng)調(diào)時(shí)
　　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(dá)一個(gè)事實(shí)或觀點(diǎn)時(shí)
　　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.
　　2. 小括號
　　小括號()中間加一個(gè)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。

　　真題再現(xiàn)
　　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(dāng)that賓語從句的謂語，主句的admitted表明謂語應(yīng)用過去時(shí)。原文提到Toebe在雅虎的一個(gè)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(rèn)自己“上網(wǎng)成癮”。故答案根據(jù)時(shí)態(tài)要求進(jìn)行修改為：had an Internet Addiction.

　　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(jǐn)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(diǎn)出處是段的總述話語，它介紹了日本女性在說話時(shí)使用敬語是女性完美標(biāo)準(zhǔn)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(xì)描述，所以正確答案為D。
