首先，要先識出具體例證題的問(wèn)法。例證題的題干我們可以總結成一句中文：作者引用該例子來(lái)證明什么，或者該例子被引用來(lái)說(shuō)明什么。在這句中文里面，我們發(fā)現有些中文是固定的，因此我們可以了解這些中文的英文表達，例子：research，example，instance，case，quotation或者直接是該例子的英文名稱(chēng);用來(lái)：cite，mention，use;證明：explain，illustrate，show，demonstrate等。

能夠識別題型后，就可以嘗試解題。我們發(fā)現，題干提問(wèn)的是例子證明的內容是什么，而在學(xué)術(shù)性議論文里面，例子就是論據，論據證明的內容就是論點(diǎn)。因此這個(gè)題可以簡(jiǎn)而言之歸納為找論據證明的論點(diǎn)。那大家可以想一下，論點(diǎn)句和論據句的位置關(guān)系。其實(shí)包括我們自己在寫(xiě)議論文時(shí)，論點(diǎn)和論據的關(guān)系也是論點(diǎn)一般在前面，在后面再用論據去解釋說(shuō)明。因此，我們可以利用題干中的論據去定位到原文，再往前一步找到該論據證明的論點(diǎn)。因此例證題的解法可以歸納為：1.定位例子在文章中出現的位置;2.在例子前找到觀(guān)點(diǎn)，用觀(guān)點(diǎn)句對應選項即可。接下來(lái)用例子來(lái)感受一下：

例1(英一2009年 text 4)

39. The story of John Dane shows that less well-educated New Englanders were often ______.

[A] influenced by superstitions

[B] troubled with religious beliefs

[C] puzzled by church sermons

[D] frustrated with family earnings

We should not forget, however, that most New Englanders were less well educated. While few craftsmen or farmers, let alone dependents and servants, left literary compositions to be analyzed, it is obvious that their views were less fully intellectualized. Their thinking often had a traditional superstitious quality.A tailor named John Dane, who emigrated in the late 1630s, left an account of his reasons for leaving England that is filled with signs. Sexual confusion, economic frustrations, and religious hope—all came together in a decisive moment when he opened the Bible, told his father that the first line he saw would settle his fate, and read the magical words: “Come out from among them, touch no unclean thing , and I will be your God and you shall be my people.” One wonders what Dane thought of the careful sermons explaining the Bible that he heard in Puritan churches.

觀(guān)察該題，問(wèn)的是story of John Dane的例子表明什么，因此符合我們例證題的一個(gè)問(wèn)法。那我們先找到例子在文章哪里出現，A tailor named John Dane, 這里出現我們知道應該是開(kāi)始描述例子的內容，那么觀(guān)點(diǎn)往前面找一句： Their thinking often had a traditional superstitious quality.用這句話(huà)直接對應選項，發(fā)現A選項的superstitions跟原文superstitious可以對應，因此可以選擇A選項。

總而言之，例證題遵循著(zhù)比較固定的解題思路，定位也比較好找，一般會(huì )有明顯的例子標志詞，再用例子前的觀(guān)點(diǎn)句對應，對應句也不會(huì )很難理解，可以嘗試著(zhù)用原詞或者同義詞去對應。因此，例證題作為我們必得分的題型，大家可以在暑期多進(jìn)行練習。
