新加坡S-AEIS考试时间越来越近了，备考的时间也越来越少，所以大家要加快复习的脚步，AEIS阅读更是如此，在平时的备考中我们已经积累了一定的词汇量和句式，那么今天小编就为大家分析S-AEIS阅读语法结构。

　　第一句：

　　The particular symbolic significance of the cave paintings in southwestern France is more explicitly revealed, perhaps, by the results of a study conducted by researchers Patricia Rice and Ann Paterson.

　　关键句，研究者研究的结果清晰地表明了法国西南部岩洞画的特殊象征意义；

　　第二句：

　　The data they present suggest that the animals portrayed in the cave paintings were mostly the ones that the painters preferred for meat and for materials such as hides.

　　呈现事实，用研究数据表明绘画者喜欢吃的动物或者来做兽皮的动物就是岩洞画中常被绘画的动物。

　　第三句：

　　For example, wild cattle (bovines) and horses are portrayed more often than we would expect by chance, probably because they were larger and heavier (meatier) than other

　　animals in the environment.

　　对事实举例证明，进一步论证第二句的事实。

　　第四句：

　　In addition, the paintings mostly portray animals that the painters may have feared the most because of their size, speed, natural weapons such as tusks and horns, and the unpredictability of their behavior.

　　首先用in addition表示与前面某句话的并列，同样，与第二句一样是对事实的呈现。

　　第五句：That is, mammoths, bovines, and horses are portrayed more often than deer and reindeer.

　　具体例子来证明第四句的事实。

　　第六句：

　　Thus, the paintings are consistent with the idea that the art is related to the importance of hunting in the economy of Upper Paleolithic people.

　　关联词thus表示这是一个结果或者总结，表明岩洞艺术与打猎的重要性有关，也是对以上句子第二句至第五句的总结。

　　第七句：

　　Consistent with this idea, according to the investigators, is the fact that the art of the cultural period that followed the Upper

　　Paleolithic also seems to reflect how people got their food.

　　Consistent with表明与前一句是并列关系，该句内容说明旧石器时代晚期的文化期的艺术也反映了人们如何得到食物;

　　第八句：

　　But in that period, when getting food no longer depended on hunting large game animals (because they were becoming extinct), the art ceased to focus on portrayals of animals.

　　关联词but表示转折，句子内容陈述了另一个事实。

　　解题步骤

　　在段落总结后，大家可以明确段落的基本结构，三大部分：

　　第一部分：主旨句，明确整段主题

　　第二部分：摆事实，举例子（可能是多个并列的事实以及例子）

　　第三部分：总结句，再次点明主旨
