2014年考研英语阅读冲刺计划

 

  每每课间游走于教室时,总能见勤勉刻苦的同学会努力的在每一个他们不认识单词的上方标出汉语意思,字迹工整,详实丰富。这可谓之正确的做事。但是每次我都会告诫同学们以后切不可如此,因为这样的标注会使自己下次复习的时,视线呈波浪状起伏,阅读到认识的单词时视线是平的,到不认识处,视线自然上升。这样其实不是在阅读英文而是在阅读中文,以后再看到满页的英文时还是会觉得恐惧。阅读的能力依然很难提高。所以我们虽然在正确的做事,却没有做正确的事。下面留学群考研频道为您提供接下来的60天英语阅读应该怎么复习和最后提高成绩的方法。

  1.对题目进行分析

  很多考生,包括英语实力比较强的部分考生,没有给予题目及选项足够的关注。他们认为英语水平够了就可以在考研中获得不错的成绩。诚然,英语基础和实力是考研成败的重要因素,然而考研英语从某种程度上说,就是用英语包装的了一种思维方式的考察。如果说在前期大家都是在做知识性储备的话,那么到了后半期,大家水平和实力相当的情况下,就是看谁更能够把自己的解题思路不断靠到考研命题专家的思路上去。因此,考研准备的过程,也就是把自己的思路不断贴近命题专家的思路的一个过程。

  2. 做题要进行错误分析

  许多考生在最后的冲刺阶段都会花大量的时间和精力去做许多模拟试卷。这种复习方法不仅耗时耗力,事倍功半,而且甚至会因为模拟题的仿真程度不够好,导致自己的做题思路发生偏差。因此,即便是在最后的阶段,建议同学们也不要大量做题,而是应该保证做题的效率和成效。模拟题可以做,但是量不要太大,否则就会陷入题海之中不能自拔。一般程度的同学一周做一套模拟题足矣,而且应该注意自己的英文实力应该和做题数量呈正比,自觉水平高的同学,做题的量可以大一些,而如果到目前为止感觉基本大纲词汇和真题还没有完全吃透的同学,模拟题可以少做甚至不做。在做模拟题的时候,很多考生会对题目只停留在一个简单的对答案的程度上,这是远远不够的。既然我们花了时间和精力来做模拟题,就应该在投入点时间把它们彻底的研究透彻。在这里,向同学们建议至少要进行一下错误分析,即把所有做错的题目挑选出来,进行分类整理研究,找出自己错误的原因,并进行改正。这样才能真正做到有的放矢,有针对性地进行冲刺。

  在复习阶段,大家要花大力气做的一个工作,就是对每个题,每个选项认真揣摩和分析。为什么对,为什么错。对的选项是以一种什么方式设置出来的,错误的选项到底具有什么特征,跟我们设置了什么陷阱。在这样不断的分析的过程中,我们会慢慢把自己解题的错误思路一个个堵住,最后只剩下了正确的思路和答案。这就是我们说的,复习到最后的境界:文章看完后,看题目和选项的时候,就发现正确答案在眼前“闪闪发光”。

  3. 提高阅读速度

  就考研英语的阅读题来说,一定要千方百计给自己留出充裕的时间,每篇材料精读两遍,理解上一定不会有什么大的偏差。所以说,最后准备时间,你一定要意识到速度是至关重要的。如果你注意力高度集中而且读得快,在相同的时间里,就能比别人多读一遍,有更深一分理解,答题的准确率也就大大提高了。

  那么怎样提高阅读速度呢?必须锻炼出自己一目十行的习惯和速度来。当然这必须是在读懂70-80%关键信息的基础上!!我们在练习的时候,必须给自己规定一定的时间,有紧迫感,模拟考场环境,给自己一个安静的环境,每天一套模...

2014年考研英语阅读题按类型解题

 

  经过几场雨的洗礼,考研复习已经进入白热化的地步了,大家的第二轮复习步入正轨,开始冲刺课程的学习。留学群考研栏目为您准备了很多学习资料供您阅读。

  (一)花开两朵型

  文章开始提出两个核心概念,随后分段论述。把握这种文章的关键是注意这两个核心概念的定义,以及它们的区别和联系。这种结构分为两类,一种是两个概念是并列的,另一种是两个概念形成对比,对于后一种文章要注意两个概念之间的区别,以及作者对各自的态度。

  (二)现象——解释型

  在现象——解释型的文章中,作者在文章开始给出一个现象,相当于提出一个问题,然后对现象进行

  解释或分析现象或问题产生的原因,存在的因数以及可能解决方案,作者可能提到几个不同的解决方案,但是之后作者自己认可的那种解决方案才是文章的重点和主题;在文章最后对现象或问题进行总结说明并进一步强调作者支持的那种解决办法。

  (三)层层递进型

  全文论述从抽象到具体,从简单到复杂,文章开始是对有关主题的一般介绍,然后一步一步将主题具体化。这类文章的各段开始常出现表示递进关系的副词,如in addition to, furthermore, moreover等,文章的主题一般可以通过综合各段首句得出。

  (四)一枝独秀型

  全文围绕一个核心概念展开,文章围绕着这个概念、中心思想或者现象,从各个方面进行分析和解释说明,最后对文章进行总结,并再一次对该概念、中心思想进行阐述。

  (五)问题——解决方案型

  在这类文章中,作者首先提出一个问题,然后针对这一问题给出解决方案。如果有多个解决方案,作者认可的才是主题。

  除了文章结构外,对于报刊杂志体文章时文的一般特点也应有所了解,因为这种文章在考研阅读中占有极大比重。报刊杂志体文章的主要特点有:

  1.引人入胜。通常以一个有趣或吸引人的故事或背景开始。

  2.抛砖引玉。讲故事或交代背景的目的在于引出主题。所以,时文的主题常出现于首段的最后一句话或第二段的首句。

  3.假装客观。作者开始不说出自己的观点,貌似客观地陈述各派观点,最后才表达自己的观点。在确定作者态度的时候,主要根据所举的例子进行判断。如果例子表现一种正面态度,说明作者对这一事物持正评价;反之持负评价。

  由上述的统计分析可知,对于一篇完整的英文说明文或者议论文来说,不论其形式看上去有多么复杂多样,但是套用一句老话:“万变不离其宗”即文章都遵循了特定的篇章结构模式,在这些模式中采用频率最高的是“现象—解释型”型模式。这种模式的特点即提出问题(提出说明的事物或者现象)、分析问题(对事物或者现象进行说明)、解决问题(对说明的事物或者现象进行总结)。可见,如果我们熟悉了文章的篇章结构模式特点,对读懂文章和把握主题帮助极大,一般来说,我们阅读文章的目的是为了获取信息。 文章体裁不同,其结构特点就会各异。因此,我们获取信息的最有效方法之一就是去学习和了解文章的结构,以便更加准确、快速地定位我们要找的信息。

2014年考研英语阅读理解做题技巧总汇

 

  各路考研大军还在不停的奋战中,随着考研人群的越来越多,要想从千军万马中脱颖而出,需要坚韧不拔的毅力和持之以恒的决心,考研的路是艰辛而枯燥的,留学群为奋斗在一线的考研“将士们”加油,祝你们凯旋而归!

  考研英语大纲明确规定,考查考生判断、推理和引申能力。这在考题中相对应的就是推理题,这种题型考查考生在现实生活中的阅读技能即快速、准确推导出所需信息的能力,要求考生能够看懂题目提供的四个选项并在文中检索相关信息。这种题目比较耗费时间,在紧张的考试中,容易给考生带来心理压力,因此面对此类题型考生首先要调整心理状态,细致冷静地返回到文章中,结合语境,运用逻辑思维去推导答案。这里请考生一定要记住:西方人习惯用从个别到一般的演绎思维模式;不同于中国人的从一般到个别的归纳思维方式。

  面对判断原则的题目,考生必须先读懂题目所给的四个选项,记住它们的意思,返回原文去扫描,搜寻信息点,与题目不相关的句子、语段很快掠过,相关信息语言区域则要求考生必须细致地对照原文中的信息,来推倒出相关结论。

  引申即为词汇的内涵,与外延(字面意义)相对,是需要我们结合上下文即语境来理解说话人或作者的真实想法。例如,当你对你的朋友说:“咱们周末一起去吃饭吧!”而你的朋友回答道:“我最近有考试。”那么在正常情况下,你就知道对方没时间和你度周末。可见语境是我们理解话语(discourse)的试金石。并且引申也常常用隐喻的方式表达。

  推理题学习方法指导

  从广义上讲,几乎所有的考研题都是推理题,不会从字面意思告诉你问题的答案,考研的试题追求的是对文章的深层理解及推理,所以从这个意义上说全部的题目都属于该范畴。

  从狭义上看,该类题型指题干上有三个典型词,即infer,imply和conclusion。如:What can you infer from the story? 或What is the implied meaning of this sentence? We can draw the conclusion from the passage that…, 推理性问题原文中没有现成的答案。答案是你自己推想出来的,但不能凭空瞎想,必须以原文中某句话或某个词语为依据去合理推测才能找到合适的答案。

  逻辑推理关系解题方法及步骤如下:

  1)解题方法

  a. 要做好推理判断题,要求考生能够充分理解阅读文章、分析语篇特征、寻找解题依据。考生应该在领会全文的基础上作出正确的推理和判断;

  b. 要理解文章的字面意思,弄清上下文的整体逻辑;其次,在阅读过程中要一定要留意那些似乎话中有话的间接表达句,它们往往采用说半句、打比喻、反过来讲的方式,留有让考生自己作结论或推理的余地,同时要留意含义深刻或结构复杂的句子。同学们对作者表达的意思不能一下看透,它们往往是命题点所在;

  c. 要精读读题干,充分了解题目要求我们进行推理和判断的内容,以免白费力气;

  d. 仔细挖掘作者隐藏在文章中的一些重要涵义,切勿用自己的主观判断来代替文章内容。

  2)解题步骤

  第一步:通读全文,尤其是首末段,迅速得知文章的主旨大意;

  第二步:通读选项,在每个选项下边用笔标记本...

    Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?

  Many people are afraid to assert(表现)themselves. Dr.Alberti, author of Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back, thinks it's because their self-respect is low.Our whole set up(体制)is designed to make people distrust themselves,says Alberti.There's always'superior'around–a parent, a teacher, a boss-who'knows better'. There superiors often gain when they chip(削弱)away at your self-image.

  But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves. They offerassertiveness trainingcourses–AT for short. In the AT courses people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be more active without hurting other people.

  In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear. A group taking an At course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But At uses an even stronger motive-the need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how the feels.

  Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image. If someone you face is moreimportantthan you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your own good sense.

  You go by the other person's demand. But, why should you? AT says you can get to feel good ab...

   I don't think there is anything wrong with your blood. The key to your problem is that long nap(打盹,小睡)after dinner. If you didn't sleep for hours during the early part of the evening, you would be more ready to sleep at bedtime. If you didn't nap after dinner, you would not want to stay up so late, and you would not feel the need to take a sleeping pill. The pill is still working in your system when you get up in the morning. This helps account for the fact that you feel tired all day. You should get out of the habit of sleeping during the evening. Right after your evening meal, engage in some sort of physical activity - a sport such as bowling, perhaps. Or get together with friends for an evening of cards and conversation. Then go to bed at your usual time or a little earlier, and you should be able to get a good nights rest without taking a pill.

  If you can get into the habit of spending your evenings this way, I am sure you will feel less tired during the day. At first it may be hard for you to go to sleep without taking a pill. If so, get up and watch television or do some jobs around your house until you feel sleepy. If you fall asleep and then wake up a few hours later, get up but do not take a sleeping pill. Read a while or listen to the radio, and make yourself a few hours'sleep that night, you will feel better in the morning than you usually feel after taking a pill. The next night you will be ready to sleep at ...

   In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the battle of the sexes.

  If the process goes too far and man's role is regarded as less important - and that has happened in some cases-we are as badly of as before, only in reverse.

  It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired ofmonism(母亲崇拜), - but we don't want to exchange it for aneo-popism(新父亲崇拜).What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals.

  There are signs that psychatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit(信任)-not all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman's place is the home. We are beginning, however, o analyze men's place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy developme...

   A mysteriousblack cloudapproaches the earth-our planet's weather is severely affected.

  Throughout the rest of June and July temperatures rose steadily all over the Earth. In the British isles the temperature climbed through the eighties, into the nineties, and moved towards the hundred mark. People complained, but there was no serious disaster.

  The death number in the U. S. Remained quite small, thanks largely to the air-conditioning units that had been fitted during previous years and months. Temperatures rose to the limit of human endurance throughout the whole country and people were obliged to remain indoors for weeks on end. Occasionally air-conditioning units failed and it was then that fatalities occurred.

  Conditions were utterly desperate throughout the tropics(热带地区)as may be judged from the fact that 7943 species of plants and animals became totally extinct. The survival of Man himself was only possible because of the caves and cellars(地窖)he was able to dig. Nothing could be done to reduce the hot air temperature. More than seven hundred million persons are known to have lost their lives.

  Eventually the temperature of the surface waters of the sea rose, not so fast as the air temperature it is true, but fast enough to produce a dangerous increase of humidity(湿度). It was indeed this increase that produced the disastrous conditions just remarked. Millions of people between the latitudes of...

   Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea. People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.

  Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.

  At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea. Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added. She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread unti...

   There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先)it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?

  If spelling become the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely toplay safe. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.

  I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience:This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation(动力)to seek improvement.
