1. 提問方式

　　推斷文章出處的設題形式有：

　　The passage is most likely to be taken from______.

　　Where would this passage most probably appear?

　　The passage is most likely a part of______.

　　2. 解題技巧

　　這類問題應從文章的內容或結構來判斷其出處：

　　(1)報紙：前面會出現日期、地點或通訊社名稱。

　　(2)廣告：因其格式特殊，容易辨認。

　　(3)產品說明：器皿、設備的使用說明會有產品名稱或操作方式，而藥品的服用說明會告知服用時間、次數、藥量等。

　　3. 實例分析（全國卷）

　　Do you always understand the directions on a bottle of medicine? Do you know what is meant by “Take only as directed?” Read the following directions and see if you understand them.

　　To reduce pain, take two tablets(藥片) with water, followed by one tablet every eight hours, as required. For night-time and early morning relief (緩解疼痛) take two tablets at bedtime. Do not take more than six tablets in twenty-four hours.

　　For children six to twelve years old, give half the amount (量). For children under six years old, ask your doctor’s advice.

　　Reduce the amount if you suffer from restlessness or sleeplessness after taking the medicine.

　　●This text is most probably taken from a ______.

　　A. textbook                   B. newsreel            C. doctor’s notebook            D. bottle of medicine

　　【解題思路分析】此題極易誤選D。的確，人們常在藥瓶上的說明中看到文章直接引語部分的文字內容，但是像第一段這樣的內容不可能出現在藥瓶上。由此可見，這一段文章應選自教科書中有關如何讀服藥說明的課文，故選A。
