考研英语二阅读参考书推荐

考研英语二阅读参考书推荐 第一,新东方的《决胜考研系列·考研英语:阅读理解基础进阶88篇+提高冲刺72篇》。 这本阅读相对不错,在题干和选项的设计上与真题较为接近,并且周围很多同学比较很认可其对于阅读、翻译的解析。在搞透历年真题的基础上,可以看一看这本书。 第二,考研1号的《同源外刊句句讲》——英语二专用。

强烈推荐这本书,原因如下:一这本书选材很好,都是《经济学人》《新闻周刊》等与考研英语真题出处同源的一些外刊之中,与真题的要求基本一致。二是这本书将这些文章一句一句拆开来细细讲解,对于每个句子中的重难点词汇和语法知识,进行系统性的排查和讲解。对于那些基础不好的同学而言,这本书真是恶补基础的最佳选择。但是,这本书也有一大缺憾,就是没有给每篇文章设置题干和选项。也就是说,没有题,只能精读和分析,不能做到练习的目的,但是可以让你更好地理解考研阅读文章,更好地进行语篇分析。不过个人认为,与其在题干和选项的命制方面存在问题,不如不命制这些东西,让考生全力投入到基本功的训练当中去,如果要做题,就做真题,这样也不会误导考生的做题思路。 第三,《新编考研英语阅读理解150篇(基础版+提高版)》。

这本阅读书具有一定的知名度。但是做起来感觉很真题思路有很大差异,偏难偏怪。有很多选项似乎是为了出题而出题,与历年真题的命制思路确有不同。我做了没多少就扔一边了。基础篇和提高篇都一样。其实多数书籍(包括新东方的《考研英语阅读理解精读100篇(基础版+高分版)》)都是这样,跟历年真题不在一个水平上。这也可以理解。毕竟,真题是无数顶级专家长时间集体智慧的结晶,而所谓的模拟题,确是水平有限的个别老师的急功近利之作,两者差别,由此可见一斑。

考研英语词汇参考书目推荐

考研英语词汇参考书目推荐 一、必须专门记忆英语大纲中的词汇 专门记忆英语大纲中的词汇,原因很简单: 1.考研词汇通常都是一词多意的,通过阅读只能知道这个单词的某一个意思,可能在其他的文章里面会有别的含义。所以记忆大纲是十分有效的。 2.2005年考研开始,大纲词汇由5300增到5500,而实际增加为500个左右。而历年真题并没有这部分词汇,所以如果记忆考研大纲的话,这500多个词汇就会被忽略掉了。 3.对于基础不好的考生,做阅读的时候,如果满篇都是生单词,会严重打击信心的。如果做一篇阅读有30个左右生单词不会的话,阅读理解肯定会大受影响! 二、考研英语词汇参考书分析 根据大纲编写的词汇书很多,如果把学习单词分成语境记忆和短期突破的话,大家可以借鉴以下方法: (一)根据语境学习记忆单词的图书 这类书主要适合英语基础较差的同学。 1.《考研英语词汇真题词频语境记忆》(精读版) 作者:郭崇兴 该书以近15年的考研真题为统计依据,将考研单词按照历年真题中出现的频率从高到低排列,并且全部选用真题作为例句。 这样做的好处是真题例句反复出现,让考生非常熟悉考试文章的句子难度,在考试的时候从容面对。尤其是在基础学习阶段非常有效。 2.《考研英语词汇。词根联想记忆法》 作者:俞敏洪 该书收录了3300个核心词汇,列出了500个考过的超纲词,标出了新增词、高频词还有好的助记法。 是本容易让人背完的词汇书。 3.《星火考研英语词汇必备》 书分类很好,熟词生意、差距词汇、核心词汇、次常用词汇、超纲词汇、时文阅读词汇。每个单词解释也很精简,方便记忆。 4.《考研词汇司马得记忆法》 作者:司马得学校 它是把相关词或易混淆的词放到了一块,记起来是挺方便的,美中不足的是,可能不能覆盖到所有重要。 (二)短期突破记忆词汇的图书 这类书主要适合英语基础较差的同学最后突破和适合英语基础较好的同学捡漏补缺用。 1.《考研英语词汇速记手册》 注释比较详尽,是比较可参考的本子,就是太贵。 2.《考研词汇掌中宝》 作者:王若平 王若平推荐的方法就是多听多背多重复,把这本小书翻烂,磁带听烂。 3.《星火抗遗忘程序速记掌中宝》 适合有毅力的人短时间突破。

英文小说阅读

Isaac Bashevis Singer 艾萨克·巴什维斯·辛格(Isaac Bashevis Singer,1904-1991)美国作家。出生于沙俄统治下的波兰,祖父与父亲都是犹太教的长老。他从小接受正统犹太教教育,学习希伯来文和意第绪文,熟悉犹太教的经典和宗教仪式以及犹太民族的风俗习惯等,这一切都铸就了他作品的重要特色。由于受到作家和记者的哥哥的影响,他违背父命,走进了华沙犹太人文学界。在哥哥的帮助下,1935年迁居美国纽约。 辛格15岁开始文学创作。迄今为止已创作30余部作品,全都用意第绪文写成,大部分已译成英文。长篇小说《莫斯卡特一家》(195o)、《庄园》(1967)和《农庄》(1969)等主要写在现代文明和排犹主义双重压力下,波兰犹太社会的解体过程,其中《庄园》是这类作品的代表作。另一类小说主要写爱情与宗教问题,主要作品有《撒旦在戈雷》(1955)、《卢布林的魔术师》(196o)、《奴隶》(1962)、《仇敌;一个爱情故事)(1972)和《童爱)(1979)等。其中最著名的是《卢布林的魔术师》,西方评论家说它是辛格最佳的长篇小说。 辛格的短篇小说创作也很突出,至今已发表I0余部短篇小说集,重要的有《傻瓜吉姆佩尔及其他故事》(1957)、《市场街的斯宾诺莎》(1961)、《羽毛的王冠》(1973)、《短篇小说集》(1982)、《意象集》(1985)、《梅休塞拉赫之死及其他故事》(1988)等。此外还有2个剧本、3部回忆录。11部儿童故事集。1978年,由于“他的充满激情的叙事艺术,这种艺术既扎根于波兰犹太人的文化传统,又反映了人类的普遍处境”,辛格获诺贝尔文学奖。 辛格被称为当代最会讲故事的作家。在创作上,他尊重传统,又吸收了意第绪文学中的营养,创造出自己的独特风格。他的小说有不少以性爱为题材,他认为“在爱情和性爱中比在任何其他关系中,人的本性显露得更充分”。但他不耽于色情描写,而重在探索和揭示激情对个人命运的影响。他主张作家创作要起到娱乐读者的作用,让读者得到艺术享受。所以他的故事叙述生动,文笔轻松幽默,作品中丰富的成语和活泼的句法受到评论界的高度赞扬,认为那是任何译文无法传达的。

英语阅读2期末复习资料

英语阅读2期末复习资料 Part One Passage l Th is is a short passage about the wildebeest migration. Every year around April , many thousands of wildebeest gather together on the Serengeti Plains in Tanzania in preparation for their long journey northwards. Although it is often referred to as ‘The Migration' , this great movement of animals is an endless year - round trek dictated by the seasons and the search for fresh grass and water. By early July the long straggling columns of wildebeest , along with large numbers of zebra , begin to reach the Mara Reserve. They can enter anywhere and once inside their movements are erratic according to where forage is best. However, the herds do have one or two favorite river crossing places and after the Mara grasses have been gazed to the ground , they use these to move northwards out of the reserve. Weak animals rarely survive the river crossings. Many are crushed to death by the sheer weight of numbers and some are eaten by huge crocodiles. In late September. the herds begin to re- form for the journey back to the Serengeti Plains. They arrive three months later and begin calving. Read Passage 1 and decide whether the following statements are True or False. 1. In April the wildebeest travel from the Mara Reserve to the Serengeti. 2. The reason for ‘ T he Migration' is search for food. 3. In early June , the wildebeest reach the Mara Reserve. 4. The wildebeest' s movements are irregular when they go into the Mara Reserve. 5. At the end of the year , the wildebeest return to the Serengeti Plains and give birth to calves. Passage 2 This is a short passage about the monster and Frankenstein ? Some time later , Frankenstein received a letter from his father telling him that his young brother. William. had been murdered. All the family was shocked when Justine Moritz , the boy' s nanny , was accused of the crime and Frankenstein was horrified when she was executed for the murder because he felt that his monster had done it , not Justine. Throughout the following months , Frankenstein became more and more depressed. Then , one day when he was traveling in the mountains , trying to forget his troubles , Frankenstein suddenly met the monster. He shouted furiously at him , accusing him of the crime, and telling him to stay away from him and his family. But the monster insisted on talking to his creator and told him the sad story of his life since he had run away from the laboratory where Frankenstein had made him. The monster said that he had tried , in vain , to attach himself to humans , but nobody would have anything to do with him , because they found him so ugly and frightening. He told Frankenstein that even when he had saved a child who was drowning in a river , nobody thanked him. In fact , the father shot him in the shoulder because he was afraid of him.
