解讀考研英語閱讀中的“十大符號秘密”
考研界公認的一條準則：得閱讀者得天下。閱讀的考察大到篇章，小到標點符號，所以我們要掌握各個細節(jié)，知己知彼方能百戰(zhàn)不殆。下面跨考教育英語教研室閱讀主講靳姝老師為大家總結(jié)考研閱讀中常用標點符號，希望引起考生對閱讀理解中標點加以重視。
1. 逗號 comma
用于分割并列成分。考研重點：兩個逗號之間，或者一個逗號之后，如果是補充說明成分時，跳過不看。Eg. Some huge American industries, such as consumer electronics, hadshrunk or vanished in the face of foreign competition.
2.句號 period/full stop
①用于陳述句，表示一個句子的結(jié)束， 起分割切分句子作用。
②用于某些縮略詞之后。比如Mr.、 Ms.、 etc.等等。如果句號作為簡寫符號使用，那么這個詞語簡寫前后面的符號應該照常寫上，因為簡寫號并非句號，也不遵循句號的語法。比如Entreprise Co., Ltd或者I invited Tom, Jerry, etc..(注意兩個點)。
③用作小數(shù)點
3. 問號
考研英語閱讀文章中的問號一般都是設問的功能，只問不答，答案不言自明。Eg1.考研難道沒有價值嗎?另外，如果開篇就是問句，那么則屬于問題答案型文章，對問題的回答就是全文主旨。
4. 冒號(colon)：
冒號前后是從抽象到具體的過程，后面進一步補充說明前面的內(nèi)容。
Eg.1997 passage 3 Q2
60. The word pervasive (Line 1,Paragraph 2) might mean ________.
[A] widespread [B] overwhelming
[C] piercing [D] fashionable
We live in a society in which the medicinal and social use of substances(drugs) is pervasive: an aspirin to quiet a headache, some wine to be sociable,coffee to get going in the morning, a cigarette for the nerves.
5.分號(semi-colon)前后是并列關(guān)系，包括結(jié)構(gòu)上并列和語義上的并列。
For us, this means that evolution is over;the biological Utopia has arrived. (2000 Passage2)
6. 引號(quotation marks)：①引用 ②強調(diào) ③諷刺
Eg1 Scientific creationism,which is being pushed by some for equal time in the classrooms whenever thescientific accounts of evolution are given, is based on religion, not science.
7. 括號(parentheses ) ①解釋說明生詞。②補充說明
Drugs (substances) that affect the central nervous system and alterperception, mood, and behavior are known as psychoactive substances. (1997，Text 3)
9. 破折號(dash)
①一個破折號后面起補充說明或評價判斷。
I am an idiot - the stupidest kind of all.
This book stands for reason itself. And so it does and all would bewell were reason the only judge in the creationism/evolution debate.
②兩破折號之間其補充說明，可先跳過不看。
In Australiawhere an aging population, life-extending technology andchanging community attitudes have all played their partother states are goingto consider making a similar law to deal with euthanasia.
10.省略號(ellipsis) ...
英文中的省略號的作用和漢語是一樣的。當省略號在句圍并且有下文時，應該打四個點，最后一個為句號。如:And it flew further, and further, and further.... Jorge smiled andturned back.當省略號在句尾并作為語氣延長的作用時，應使用修辭前的標點，如：Do you love me...?其余情況下使用三個點。如：The Martians...they just...just bombed our...our town, pleasesend...more...
