经常有同学问我:有没有什么捷径能够顺利地通过四六级、考研英语考试? 我的回答总是:没有。但是,帮助同学们找到一套科学的学习方法,不仅可以提高英语能力,而且对考试也有切实的帮助,是我一直所追求的。结合我个人的学习体会,并经过长时间的思考和教学中的摸索,我总结出了一套以阅读为纲,提高英语综合能力和突破四六级和考研英语考试的“超精读”方法,希望对同学们有点帮助。

大家不管在阅读英文报刊(推荐阅读Time, Newsweek, the Economist)还是真题的时候,第一遍都必须首先注意提高阅读速度。对报刊上的文章来说,第一遍读的时候不要查字典,记下起止时间,计算单位时间的阅读量。对真题来说,更加要控制在规定的时间内完成,阅读的时候就需要随时对可能的考点作出标记,最后结合解题技巧进行解题。此时的重点放在训练速度、掌握文章大意、结构、作者、专家等的观点。

下一步就是对文章和考点、干扰项等进行详细的分析、总结。这个时候就要仔细体会文章中精彩的语言,注意词的使用、内涵和搭配和扩展,代词和名词的指代,以及对精彩句型的模仿和重要语法现象的、长句、难句、文章结构的分析。另外,还要注意句子和句子之间的关系是什么,是因果、递近、转折还是什么,尤其注意文章的第一句和最后一句,以及每段的第一句和最后一句与其它句子的关系。体会每句话在文章中的作用。在此过程中,要培养自己对文章主要讨论对象、关键词,作者、专家的观点、和语气的把握,注意作者和专家的观点,专家和专家之间的观点是否相同或相反或互补,以及作者和专家的语气是赞成还是反对,是关注还是乐观等等。如果是真题,还要仔细分析考点和正确、干扰选项的规律、特征。在这个过程中,把文章尽可能的多读几遍,提高对文章中单词、短语、句型等的反应速度,阅读速度自然也会提高。

如果能做到上面几点,那么你才能说真正的理解了文章,阅读理解能力以及综合英语能力都会得到很大的提高,其结果是对考试中的每个题型的把握都会更上一层楼。先从听力说起,据研究,一个人的阅读理解能力和听力水平是成正比关系的。试想,有的同学连听力原文都看不懂,怎么可能听懂呢。另外,在超精读的过程中,所积累的词汇能力,对词汇题也有很大帮助,我做过统计,如果对10套左右的四六级、考研阅读真题中的词汇进行过深入学习,那么大纲中的重点词汇就已经被囊括大半了。而且,最好的词汇记忆方法就是通过阅读来学习,记得又牢又准确。对翻译、完形、改错、简短回答问题等小题型,你就会觉得得心应手了,因为你对这些题型的解题能力和你的阅读、词汇能力最相关。另外,还有作文,许多同学喜欢背模版,其实模版作文千篇一律,很难拿高分。如果大家在读报刊和真题的过程中有意识地摘抄和模仿一些精彩地道的词汇和句型,考试时信手拈来,无疑会吸引评卷老师的眼球。其实,大家想一想,我们所阅读的英文文章不都是精彩的作文范文吗?如果同学们能够在早晨或者傍晚朗诵或者背诵英文报刊文章

或者就是真题阅读文章,那么你眼睛里、耳朵里接触到的都是地道的英语,那么坚持下去,你的听说读写能力都会很自然地提高了!

下面,我结合一些例子,说明一下如何进行超精读。

例一、2001年6月四级Passage four

Questions26to30are based on the following passage.

We can see how the product life cycle works by looking at the introduction of instant coffee.when it was introduced,most people did not like it as well as“regular”coff ee and it took several years to gain general acceptance(introduction stage).At one point, though,instant coffee grew rapidly in popularity and many brands were introduced(stage of rapid growth).After a while people became attached to one brand and sales leveled

off(stage of maturity).sales went into a slight decline(衰退)when freeze-dried coffees were introduced(stage of decline).

26. According to the passage, when people grow fond of one particular brand of a product, its sales will _____.

A) decrease gradually B) remain at the same level

C) become unstable D) improve enormously

第一段中有三个句型可以在图表作文中应用:

1. instant coffee grew rapidly in popularity.

我们可以这样模仿:the mobile phone has grown rapidly in popularity.

2. sales leveled off. 或者也可以这样说:sales remained constant / steady / stable / much the same

3. sales went into a slight decline.

或者也可以这样说: sales declined slightly / 如果下降幅度大可以说sales declined dramatically / substantia lly / sharply / greatly / hugely.

词汇扩展( 同学们可以看一看是否掌握了这些文章的词汇和扩展词汇:

life cyle / energy cycle / eternal cyle / business cycle / business circle /

instant coffee/ instant star / the instant / the minute / the moment / instantaneous

introduce a bill

general acceptance / general public / specific /

at one point / on the point / to the point

brand loyalty

become attached to / be detached from

maturity / mature / premature / ripe / sophisticated

例二、2000年1月四级Passage Two

Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.

30. What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?

A) They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles.

B) They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.

C) They are falling out of use in the United States.

D) They are applicable only on broad roads

请用心体会一下initially 这个词的内涵,其实,你一看到这个词,就必须准确predict出后面可能会有考点,而且肯定会出现but, however, ultimately 一类的转折、对比词。答案B)。

例三、六级2001年6月Passage Two

For centuries, explorers have risked their lives venturing into the unknown for reasons that were to vary ing degrees economic and nationalistic. ……

Although their missions blended commercial and political-military imperatives, the explorers involved al l accomplished some significant science simply by going where no scientists had gone before.

Today Mars looms as humanity’s next great terra incognita. And with doubtful prospects for a short-ter m financial return, with the cold war a rapidly fading memory and amid a growing emphasis on interna tional cooperation in large space ventures, it is clear that imperatives other than profits or nationalism will have to compel human beings to leave their tracks on the planet’s reddish surface. Could it be sci ence, which has long played a minor role in exploration, is at least destined to take a leading role?

……

With Mars the scientific stakes are arguably higher than they have ever been. …..

36. According to the passage, the chief purpose of explorers in going to unknown places in the past was _____ .

A) to display their country’s military might

B) to accomplish some significant science

C) to find new areas for colonization

D) to pursue commercial and state interests

37. At present, a probable inducement for countries to initiate large-scale space ventures is _____ .

A) international cooperation B) nationalistic reasons

C) scientific research D) long-term profits

同学们有没有发现:economic / commercial / financial / profit ; nationalistic / political / military / cold war / nationalism; science / scientist/ scientific 都是近义词或同一范畴的词,也就阅读文章中经常出现的同义换词现象。如果一个词的同义词、相关词在一篇文章中多次重复出现,必定是这篇文章的强调的地方,必定和考题相关。另外,请注意这两到题的考法,先考过去,再考现在,一个是was, 一个是is。答案D, C。

例四、考研2004年Text 1

Hunting for a job late last year, lawyer Gant Redmon stumbled across CareerBuilder, a job database on t he Internet. He searched it with no success but was attracted by the site’s “personal search agent”. It’s an interactive feature that lets visitors key in job criteria such as location, title, and salary, then emails them when a matching position is posted in the database.

….

Some sites design their agents to tempt job hunters to return. When CareerSite’s agent sends out messag es to those who have signed up for its service, for example, it includes only three potential jobs –thos e it considers the best matches. There maybe more matches in the database; job hunters will have to visi t the site again to find them –and they do.

44. Why does CareerSite’s agent offer each job hunter only three job options?

A) To focus on better job matches.

B) To attract more returning visits.

C) To reserve space for more messages.

D) To increase the rate of success.

请各位同学仔细看一下下面这句话中them是指代什么:then emails them when a matching position is p osted in the database. 有的辅导书上是这么翻译的:然后给网上贴出的对应岗位发个邮件/ 当。。。时,你就通过EMAIL给这些人寄去相关的资料。其实,这里them指visitors。比如说你访问某个求职网站,登记了你的要求,那么该网站可能会根据你的要求给你发email通知你,这就是所谓的interactive feature.

44题答案B, 实际上考的是一个例证题,但是表面上不很容易看出来,这就是考研难的地方。如果你平时注意分析第一句话和后面句子的关系,那么你就会知道,例证题的答案经常指向段落第一句话。答案中a ttract替换原文tempt。如果你在解题的时候只注意后面几句话,就可能会做错答案或者速度慢了。

例五、考研2002年Text 4

The Supreme Court’s decisions on physician-assisted suicide carry important implications for how medici ne seeks to relieve dying patients of pain and suffering.

Although it ruled that there is no constitutional right to physician-assisted suicide, the Court in effect sup ported the medical principle of “double effect”, a centuries-old moral principle holding that an action h

aving two effects –a good one that is intended and a harmful one that is foreseen –is permissible if the actor intends only the good effect.

56. From the first three paragraphs, we learn that_____ .

A) doctors used to increase drug dosages to control their patients’pain

B) it is still illegal for doctors to help the dying end their lives

C) the Supreme Court strongly opposes physician-assisted suicide

D) patients have no constitutional right to commit suicide

答案B, 这几段里有不少和法律相关单词可以学习,比如constitutional / rule / supreme court, rule 这个词在这里是裁决的意思,很多死背词汇书的同学考试中就不一定能够反应出这个意思。这道题目的干扰项之一C很有意思,大家有没有注意到strongly这个词,这个选项就错在这里。请看一下第二段Although这句话,体会一下这句话的内涵(尽管,但是),这句话的内涵是最高法院尽管认为医生协助病人自杀是非法的,是持反对态度的,但并不是强烈反对!所以大家在做题的时候一定要注意选项中的形容词和副词等限定词,这些地方经常是陷阱,同样文章中出现这类词汇也需要高度警惕。

因为时间关系,就简单地举这些例子,大家还有什么问题,或者我说的不当的地方,欢迎一起讨论!英语学习的道路是永无止境的!

最后引用一个我与一个网上同学的对话来结束这篇文章,希望各位同学都能早日视深刻地理解英语为一种享受,并顺利攻克四六级考研英语。

同学:您说的超精读会花费很多时间的难道不是吗?

答:呵呵,你搞错了,你做题目的时候是在40分钟之内完成。研究题目的时候超精读,知道吗?精读之外,研究好出题点,解题技巧,怎么会过不了?不花时间,怎么提高?你不精读,这次过不了,下次还要再考,更花时间。

最关键的是要下苦功,才能享受甜蜜的胜利果实!

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—医学

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—医学 Passage 18(Doctor-assisted Suicide:Is It Ever an Option?) Should doctor-assisted suicide ever be a legal option? It involves the extreme measure of taking the life of a terminally ill patient when the patient is in extreme pain and the chances for recovery appear to be none.Those who argue against assisted suicide do so by considering the roles of the patient,the doctor,and nature in these situations. Should the patient take an active role in assisted suicide? When a patient is terminally ill and in great pain,those who oppose assisted suicide say that it should not be up to that patient to decide what his or her fate will be.There are greater powers at work that determine when a person dies,for example,nature.Neither science nor personal preference should take precedence over these larger forces. What role should the doctor have? Doctors,when taking the Hippocratic oath,swear to preserve life at all costs,and it is their ethical and legal duty to follow both the spirit and the letter of this oath.It is their responsibilities to heal the sick,and in the cases when healing is not possible,then the doctor is obliged to make the dying person comfortable.Doctors are trained never to hasten death.Those who oppose assisted suicide believe that doctors who do help terminally ill patients die are committing a crime,and they should be dealt with accordingly.Doctors are also,by virtue of their humanness,capable of making mistakes.Doctors could quite possibly say,for instance,that a cancer patient was terminal,and then the illness could later turn out not to be so serious.There is always an element of doubt concerning the future outcome of human affairs. The third perspective to consider when thinking about assisted suicide is the role of nature.Life is precious.Many people believe that it is not up to human beings to decide when to end their own or another’s life.Only nature determines when it is the right time for a person to die.To assist someone in suicide is not only to break criminal laws,but to break divine 1aws as well. These general concerns of those who oppose assisted suicide are valid in certain contexts of the assisted suicide question.For instance,patients cannot always be certain of their medical conditions.Pain clouds judgment,and so the patient should not be the sole arbiter of her or his own destiny.Patients do not usually choose the course of their medical treatment,so they shouldn’t be held completely responsible for decisions related to it.Doctors are also fallible,and it is understandable that they would not want to make the final decision about when death should occur.Since doctors are trained to prolong life,they usually do not elect to take it by prescribing assisted suicide. I believe that blindly opposing assisted suicide does no one a service.If someone is dying of

考研英语阅读理解精读100篇之经济类 unit1 unit1 Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey’s application to join the European Union, to be voted on by the EU’s Council of Ministers on December 17th, are economic-in particular, the country’s relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2004 members of the EU. But it is not far off that of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1st 2004 (Latvia), and it is much the same as those of two countries, Bulgaria and Romania, which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1st 2007. Furthermore, the country’s recent economic progress has been, according to Donald Johnston, the secretary-general of the OECD, "stunning". GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13.4% higher than a year earlier, a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey’s inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972, and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year, $10 billion economic programme that will, according to the IMF’s managing director, Rodrigo Rato, "help Turkey... reduce inflation toward European levels, and enhance the economy’s resilience". Resilienc e has not historically been the country’s economic strong point. As recently as 2001, GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994, and by

UNIT SIX TEXT ONE Maintaining internal E-mail systems has long been the bane of the university information-technology director. Servers are unwieldy and unreliable, and in the past several years, the number of student complaints has grown exponentially as forward-moving providers like YahooMail, Hotmail, and Gmail have increased expectations of what E-mail should offer. The solution for a number of colleges has been to wave the white flag and outsource E-mail hosting to the experts. Microsoft, which owns Hotmail, and Google (Gmail) are the biggest players in the educational E-mail hosting market. Along with the neat-o peripheral gizmos like messaging, calendars, and collaboration tools, the outsourced systems are more stable, have better spam filters, and provide much more storage space than the typical university's in-house system. At the University of Pennsylvania, its old E-mail service gave students 60 megabytes of storage, just 3 percent of the 2 gigabytes Windows Live now provides. In return, Google and Microsoft get almost nothing, at least monetarily and in the short term. Microsoft's Windows Live @ edu and the Google Apps Education Edition are free of charge for schools. Eliminating another source of revenue, the two tech giants stripped their respective services of advertising in an effort to accommodate educators' concerns. Microsoft breaks even on the venture (it does run ads on non-E-mail services like instant messaging), while Google, which makes almost all its money through advertising, runs at a loss. But what money they don't make at the moment will—the companies hope—pay great dividends in the form of lifelong users in the future, says Google's Jeff Kelter. As quickly as they shuffle out of commencement, graduates see their E-mail transition to the traditional ad-based formats of Gmail and Hotmail. And unlike before, when universities couldn't afford to host thousands of alumni, Google and Microsoft can maintain every account indefinitely, retaining customers as long as customers still want them. Not all schools are ready to outsource their tech dirty work, with privacy and security topping the list of concerns. Critics worry that by handing over the responsibility of E-mail hosting, colleges also relinquish the freedom to keep the information safe in the best way they see fit. Even in the corporate world, there is great skepticism of consumer technologies like Google Apps. Yet most university IT managers agree that outsiders would do a better job protecting individual E-mail from viruses and spam than their own small operations, and strong word-of-mouth praise has done wonders to supplement the almost nonexistent marketing budgets for these Microsoft and Google

2009考研英语阅读理解精读100篇(2)

TEXT 2 He emerged, all of a sudden, in 1957: the most explosive new poetic talent of the English post-war era. Poetry specialised, at that moment, in the wry chronicling of the everyday. The poetry of Yorkshire-born Ted Hughes, first published in a book called “The Hawk in the Rain” when he was 27, was unlike anything written by his immediate predecessors. Driven by an almost Jacobean rhetoric, it had a visionary fervour. Its most eye-catching characteristic was Hughes's ability to get beneath the skins of animals: foxes, otters, pigs. These animals were the real thing all right, but they were also armorial devices—symbols of the countryside and lifeblood of the earth in which they were rooted. It gave his work a raw, primal stink. It was not only England that thought so either. Hughes's book was also published in America, where it won the Galbraith prize, a major literary award. But then, in 1963, Sylvia Plath, a young American poet whom he had first met at Cambridge University in 1956, and who became his wife in the summer of that year, committed suicide. Hughes was vilified for long after that, especially by feminists in America. In 1998, the year he died, Hughes broke his own self-imposed public silence about their relationship in a book of loose-weave poe ms called “Birthday Letters”.In this new and exhilarating collection of real letters, Hughes returns to the issue of his first wife's death, which he calls his “big and unmanageable event”. He felt his talent muffled by the perpetual eavesdropping upon his every move. Not until he decided to publish his own account of their relationship did the burden begin to lighten. The analysis is raw, pained and ruthlessly self-aware. For all the moral torment, the writing itself has the same rush and vigour that possessed Hughes's early poetry.

考研英语阅读超精读法

超精读——全面提升英语阅读能力 作者:丁晓钟来源:点点英语 经常有同学问我:有没有什么捷径能够顺利地通过四六级、考研或者其它英语考试? 我的回答总是:没有。但是,帮助同学们找到一套科学的学习方法,不仅可以提高英语能力,而且对考试也有切实的帮助,是我一直所追求的。在国内这样的非母语学习环境里,如何在英语学习上少走弯路,最为行之有效和直接的提高英语水平的办法就是大量阅读,并作精细阅读,这样才能带动“听说写译”等其它能力的突破。结合我个人的学习体会,并经过长时间的思考和教学中的摸索,我总结出了一套以阅读为突破口,提高英语综合能力和突破四六级和考研等等英语考试的“超精读”方法,希望能对同学们有所帮助。 对大部分中国学生来说,欠缺的不是泛读,而是精读。总的来说,同学们在超精读文章的时候要对文章和考点、干扰项等进行详细的分析、总结。这时要仔细体会文章中精彩的语言,注意词语的内涵、使用、扩展和搭配,代词和名词的指代,对精彩句型的模仿,以及对重要语法现象、长句、难句、文章结构的分析。另外,还要注意分析句子和句子之间的关系,是因果、递近、转折还是什么?尤其要注意文章的第一句和最后一句,以及每段的第一句和最后一句与其它句子的关系,体会每句话在文章中的作用。在阅读过程中,要培养自己对文章主要讨论对象、关键词,作者和专家的观点,以及语气的把握。特别注意作者和专家的观点,专家和专家之间的观点是否相同或相反或互补,以及作者和专家的语气是赞成还是反对,是关注还是乐观等等。如果是真题,还要仔细分析考点和正确、干扰选项的规律、特征。在此过程中,可把文章尽可能的多读几遍,甚至翻译一下,提高对文章中单词、短语、句型等的反应速度,阅读速度自然也就提高了。 如果能做到上面几点,那么你才能说真正地理解了文章,阅读理解能力以及综合英语能力都会得到很大的提高,其结果是对考试中的每个题型的把握都会更上一层楼。先从听力说起,据研究,一个人的阅读理解能力和听力水平是成正比关系的。试想,有的同学连听力原文都看不懂,怎么可能听懂呢。另外,在超精读的过程中,所积累的词汇能力,对词汇题也有很大帮助,我曾做过统计,如果对10套左右的四六级、考研阅读真题中的词汇进行过深入学习,大纲中的重点词汇就已经囊括大半。最好的词汇记忆方法是通过阅读来学习,可以记得又牢又准确。对翻译、完形、改错、简短回答问题等小题型,你就会觉得得心应手,因为你对这些题型的解题能力和你的阅读、词汇能力最相关。关于作文,许多同学喜欢背模版,其实模版作文千篇一律,很难拿到高分。如果在读英语报刊和真题的过程中,我们有意识地摘抄积累一些精彩地道的词汇和句型,考试时信手拈来,无疑会使评卷老师眼睛为之一亮。实际上,我们所阅读的英语文章就是一篇篇精彩的作文范文。如果我们能在早晨、傍晚朗读或背诵英语报刊文章或真题阅读文章,经常进行翻译练习,耳濡目染接触到的都是地道的英语,坚持下去,我们的听说读写译能力很自然地就会得到提高。 第一步:准备好阅读材料,训练阅读速度,捕捉文章大意。不要查字典、看译文。 在阅读英语报刊(推荐阅读Time, Newsweek, the Economist等)或者真题的时候,第一遍都必须首先注意提高阅读速度。对报刊上的文章,第一遍读的时候不要查字典,记下起止时间,计算单位时间的阅读量。对真题,更加要控制在规定的时间内完成,阅读时就要随时对可能的考点作出标记,最后结合解题技巧来解题。这时的重点放在训练速度,掌握文章大意、结构,以及作者和专家等的观点。 第二步:总结文章中词汇使用的准确性、形象性、多样性和感情色彩及语气,复合词的使用,总结各类重要搭配,对各类重要词汇进行扩展,正确识别代词与抽象名词的指代,并记忆和运用可以在作文中使用的词汇。 1.从文章中词汇使用的准确性、形象性、多样性和感情色彩及语气角度,复合词的使用进行总结。

考研英语与大学英语四六级的区别

考研英语与大学英语四六级的区别 准备考研的同学大部分都考过英语四、六级,那么是英语六级难还是考研英语难,有些同学英语六级考了560分,但考研只得了50分,有些同学本科是英语专业过了专业八级,但考研也只得56分,究其原因,是因为英语四、六级与考研英语是完全不同的两个体系的考试。 四、六级是资格考试,只要能达到了一定的水平就能得高分。而考研英语是筛选性的考试,每年国家招的人数是有限制的,因此国家会利用英语这门考试筛选一部分人。考研英语与六级考试有四点不同。 一、考试的题型不同 考研的题型有完型、传统阅读、新题型、翻译、作文。其中完型由280个单词构成,给出20个空,每空2.5分,共10分,这道题全国的均分是2.5-3.5分,此题考查同学们的词组搭配,语法和语感能力。传统阅读由4篇文章构成,每篇文章400个单词,5个问题,每题2分,一共20个问题,共计40分。新题型是国家取消研究生入学考试听力以后新加的题型,此题来源于博士研究生入学考试的题型。翻译是平衡整张试卷难度的。如果前面出的题难就会出2个长难句,3个简单句;如果前面的题简单,此题就会出3个长难句2个简单句。建议大家把真题中的阅读认真翻译一遍,真题阅读是翻译的好的范本。作文由一篇小作文和一篇大作文构成,其中小作文10分,要求写一篇100个单词的应用文,大作文20分,要求写一篇160-200个单词的议论文,万学海文有一个超级作文模版,此模版用哲学的观点把世间万物分为4类,此模版把一篇作文变成了一个填空题,只要大家把议论的事物填进去,便可得一个很好的分数。 二、单词考核的侧重点不同 四、六级考试一般考单词的前一两个常用的意思,而考研英语考单词的最后两个意思。2005年研究生入学考试英语作文题讲得是赡养老人的问题,赡养这个单词很多同学都不会写,其实很简单就用support,可能大家只知道support有支持,提供的意思,但忘记了它还有赡养的意思。 三、语法考核的侧重点不同 四、六级考试重点考核词法,如名词、动词、形容词、介词等等,而考研英语侧重考核语法,如宾语从句、状语从句、倒装句等等。 四、文章选材与命题思路不同 四、六级考试的文章一般选自描写风土人情、人物传记的文章或小小说等,考研英语文章选自科技论文,外文期刊综述,外国产品说明书等。四、六级考试的文章大家读懂了就可以做对,但是考研英语的文章大家读懂了,也不一定做对。比如四、六会问是哪个教练带领中国足球冲向世界,但考研英语会问为什么黑哨在足球联比赛中屡禁不止。 大家了解了考研英语与四、六级的区别后,就可以采用科学合理的方法复习英语。很多同学在背单词的时候有三大误区。 一、记一个单词的时间太长,有的同学记一个单词会用5分钟,这就浪费了4分钟10秒,人的记忆力在50秒时达到顶峰,再往后就急剧下降,所以大家在记单词时要加大单位时间内的频率。这就如同我们见到了一个美女,若我们和她谈一个小时,一个月后我们不一定还记得她,但是若我们每天和她谈5分钟,连续12天,相信2个月后,这个美女长什么样子,穿什么衣服,我们还记得一清二楚。 二、喜欢记熟悉的单词,很多同学背单词会从字母a开始,背了几天后发现自己还在背以字母a开头的单词,于是又从z开始背,结果背了几天还在以字母z开头的单词里。最后认识的还是认识,不会的照样不会。建议大家记单词时把生词做个标记,下次看时重点看生词。 三、边背边写,这个习惯也不好。因为考研英语词汇分为5级,其中大家只要记住一级

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—工学类

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—工学 类 Passage 18 Tennis hopeful Jamie Hunt, 16, felt he could not become a world-class junior player while attending a regular school. The international circuit has players on the road 50% of the time--and it's hard to focus on your backhand when you're worrying about being on time for homeroom. So last year Hunt, who hones his ground strokes at Elite TNT Tennis Academy in April Sound, Texas, enrolled for academics in the $9,750-a-year University of Miami Online High School (UMOHS), a virtual school that caters to athletes. "The online school gives me the flexibility I need," says Hunt. "The workload is the same, but I can do it anywhere. It's nicer to ask a question face-to-face with a teacher, but in some ways it prepares me better for college because I have to be more independent." A year ago, Hunt's world junior ranking was 886; now it's 108. Virtual high schools, which allow students to take classes via PC, have emerged as an increasingly popular education alternative, particularly for on-the-go athletes. UMOHS has more than 400 students enrolled, 65% of whom are athletes. Accredited by the 100-year-old Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, UMOHS offers honors and advanced-placement classes. All course material is online, along with assignments and due dates. For help, says principal Howard Liebman, "a student may e-mail, instant message or call the teacher." Dallas mom Lori Bannon turned to another online school, Laurel Springs in Ojai, Calif. Bannon, who has a medical degree from Harvard, didn't want to compromise the education of her daughter Lindsay, 13, an élite gymnast who spends eight hours a day in the gym. "Regular school was not an option," says Bannon, "but I wanted to make sure she could go back at grade level if she quit gymnastics." Laurel Springs' enrollment has increased 35% a year for the past four years, to 1,800 students. At least 25% are either athletes or child entertainers. Educators are split on the merits of such schools. Paul Orehovec, an enrollment officer for the University of Miami, admits, "I was somewhat of a skeptic. But when I looked into their programs and accreditation, I was excited. UMOHS is the first online school to be granted membership in the National Honor Society." Kevin Roy, Elite's director of education, sees pitfalls and potential in virtual schools. "You will never have that wonderful teacher who inspires you for life," says Roy. "But the virtual school offers endless possibilities. I don't know where education's imagination will take this." 注(1):本文选自Time;11/29/2004, p149-149, 1/2p, 1c; 注(2):本文习题命题模仿对象2004年真题text 4第1、2题(1、2),text 1 第2 题(3),text 3第5 题(5)和2000年真题text 4第4题(4); 1.

考研英语阅读理解精读100篇之经济类

考研英语阅读理解精读100篇之经济类 unit1 unit1 Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey’s application to join the European Union, to be voted on by the EU’s Council of Ministers on December 17th, are economic-in particular, the country’s relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2004 members of the EU. But it is not far off that of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1st 2004 (Latvia), and it is much the same as those of two countries, Bulgaria and Romania, which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1st 2007. Furthermore, the country’s recent economic progress has been, according to Donald Johnston, the secretary-general of the OECD, "stunning". GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13.4% higher than a year earlier, a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey’s inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972, and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year, $10 billion economic programme that will, according to the IMF’s managing director, Rodrigo Rato, "help Turkey... reduce inflation toward European levels, and enhance the economy’s resilience". Resilience has not historical ly been the country’s economic strong point. As recently as 2001, GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994, and by just under 5% in 1999. Indeed, throughout the 1990s growth oscillated like an electrocardiogram recording a violent heart attack. This irregularity has been one of the main reasons (along with red tape and corruption) why the country has failed dismally to attract much-needed foreign direct investment. Its stock of such investment (as a percentage of GDP) is lower now than it was in the 1980s, and annual inflows have scarcely ever reached $1 billion (whereas Ireland attracted over $25 billion in 2003, as did Brazil in every year from 1998 to 2000). One deterrent to foreign investors is due to disappear on January 1st 2005. On that day, Turkey will take away the right of virtually every one of its citizens to call themselves a millionaire. Six noughts will be removed from the face value of the lira; one unit of the local currency will henceforth be worth what 1m are now-ie, about €0.53 ($0.70). Goods will have to be priced in both the new and old lira for the whole of the year, but foreign bankers and investors can begin to look forward to a time in Turkey when they will no longer have to juggle mentally with indeterminate strings of zeros. 注(1):本文选自Economist;12/18/2004, p115-115, 2/5p; 注(2):本文习题命题模仿2004年真题text 1第1题和第3题(1,3),2001年真题text 1第2题(2),1999年真题text 2第2题(4)和2002年真题text 3第4题(5); 1.What is Turkey’s economic situation now?
