在托福阅读的各大题型中，之前我们为大家介绍过了推理题、词汇题、简化题的解答方式，在托福阅读中掌握每种题型的解答才是解答的关键。下面就为大家介绍否定信息题(Negative Factual Information questions )的提问和解答方式。
首先为大家介绍一下否定信息题，Negative Factual Information questions。这种题型的提问方式一般为：
l According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true of X?
l The author’s description of X mentions all of the following EXCEPT?
在解答这种题目的时候首先要注意的是避免惯性思维的影响。在前面讲过的所有题目当中，或者是平时大家的做题习惯当中，我们都是看到与原文相符或者和原文一样的选项就选，但是到了这个题目，需要选择不属于题干内容或者与原文相反的选项，这是需要注意的一点。
一般这种题目的定位范围都在原文的某一个或者两个自然段，所以第一步需要的就是根据题目大定位到某个自然段，然后根据选项特征对应原文进行选题。
托福阅读否定信息题举例说明：
Paragraph 7： The Cognitive approach. Cognitive psychologists assert that our behavior is influenced by our values， by the ways in which we interpret our situations and by choice. For example， people who believe that aggression is necessary and justified-as during wartime-are likely to act aggressively， whereas people who believe that a particular war or act of aggression is unjust， or who think that aggression is never justified， are less likely to behave aggressively.
Paragraph 8： One cognitive theory suggests that aggravating and painful events trigger unpleasant feelings. These feelings， in turn， can lead to aggressive action， but not automatically. Cognitive factors intervene. People decide whether they will act aggressively or not on the basis of factors such as their experiences with aggression and their interpretation of other people’s motives. Supporting evidence comes from research showing that aggressive people oftendistort other people’s motives. For example， they assume that other people mean them harm when they do not.
9. According to the cognitive approach described in paragraphs 7 and 8， all of the following may influence the decision whether to act aggressively EXCEPT a person’s
A.Moral values
B.Previous experiences with aggression
C.Instinct to avoid aggression
D.Beliefs about other people’s intentions
这道题目的定位范围是两个自然段，四个选项中有三个会influence the decision whether to act aggressively，有一个选项不会“影响一个人决定是否要表现的具有侵略性”，我们要选择这个选项。
首先，在第七自然段的第二句“Cognitive psychologists assert that our behavior is influenced by our values， by the ways in which we interpret our situations and by choice.”中就提到moral values，对应A 选项。
其次，在第八自然段中，第四句“People decide whether they will act aggressively or not on the basis of factors such as their experiences with aggression and their interpretation of other people’s motives.”中提到两个选项，一个是“their experiences with aggression”对应B选项，另外一个是“interpretation of other people’s motives”对应D选项。只有C选项的instinct没有提到，这道题目选择C选项。
总之，在对待这样类型的题目是，除了回归原文的逻辑性思考之外，找到关键词也是很重要的一个步骤。
