进行寻读时,不能一行一行地搜寻,而应该一目 数行,快速定位.寻读的关键是要将所需搜寻的 信息点牢记在心.
当你带着某些信息的形象去进行寻读时,文章 中符合要求的信息点就会很容易自动跃然纸 上.如果所读材料的主题熟悉,篇幅也较短,从 头至尾进行一次搜寻就足矣.
但是如果材料的篇幅较长,文字较难,所涉及的 主题又不太熟悉,可能我们就需要快速浏览全 文,首先确定信息点在哪些段落里,做到有的放 矢.一旦我们找到了有关答案,就不必继续阅读. 这就是寻读与其他阅读方法的不同之处.

C. 快速阅读:跳读<skimming>和寻读 <scanning> <以意群为单位、目光扫视 >
• 跳读同上文所讲的预读有相似之处.但相比而 言,跳读需要读者更加注意每个段落的结构与 内容,掌握英语文章结构的一般规律.阅读时可 有选择地读每个段落中的一些词语.

英语专业四级陈汉生第五套模拟题两篇作文范文

Sample 5My Leisure Activities1. As we all know, the most important duty for us college students is study. We channel the majority of our energy and time into study everyday. Sometimes college students have little time to participate in and enjoy leisure activities. However, in my opinion, leisure activities are as important as study for every college student in daily life. After a whole day study, students’body and heart are tired, and it is harm to students’ health. Therefore, college students should spend the member of their time taking part in leisure activities so that they can relax themselves and enjoy their lives.There are many ways to spend the spare time on leisure activities. Some people like playing basketball or football, another people may enjoy swimming or skating, others will be used to reading or listening music. Each one has his or her special style to engage in leisure activities. Take myself for example, I am mostly a stay-at-dormitory type, but I do love cycling. I used to ride my bicycle alone wondering around the Hang Zhou. I was enjoying the views and the excitement of discovering new places. The heart when I cycled by myself was so delightful and the taste of freedom was fantastic. I was addicted to it. Whenever I decided to go further about a direction, I was always as excited as a kid who just got a new toy. My leisure activities make my heart peaceful and develop me positive attitudes towards life.In a word, I hope that everyone will take active part in leisure activities like me and enjoy personal life.2.Some people think that it is important to use leisure time for activities that improve the mind, such as reading and doing crossword puzzles. Others feel that it is important to rest the mind during leisure time. As we are a human we naturally need to take rest on leisure time to recover the stress of work and everyday life. In fact, every individual need to do what they want and belong to them. Personally, I prefer to be active during this time because it is feeling right to me better. Moreover, people are free for what they do on their leisure time, and nobody can say what it is the best.Some people want to relax after their working day. These people prefer to relax by watching movies, reading or doing some massage. People who have a physically jobs such as doctor, teacher and builder may choose these type of activities. If you are doctor, you may feel that you want to take rest for your body after work and you don’t want to do a five kilometer run after work, because you are already physically tired. On the other hand, some people choose to be active on their leisure time because they do very sitting jobs. For example, these people many spend all day sitting on a chair and do their work. At the end of a working day, they may be have a backache, and all of their body become tired so they need to stretch their arms and improve their health by doing some activity such as going to the gym or swimming.To sum up, the important things that people want to stay healthy by choosing what is best for them. In my view, the wrong way is to stay at home in your leisure time if you have a setting job.。

Map designers simply placed the subway lines on standard maps of the city streets. These maps clearly showed the subway lines that reached the areas outside the centre of London, but they made it difficult to make out the busy lines that joined directly under central London.In the 1930s, Beck came up with a solution that would not take the geographical accuracy into account. He created a map that was a scaleddown linear diagram of the subway lines. More a basic outline of the lines than a truetolife map, it didn't tell travelers about how far it actually was between two points. Beck's map had a clean structure with coloured lines. His idea was to create the plainest guide to show travelers how to get from one station to another.It's not clear what inspired him to start the project; he wasn't asked to do it, but likely developed his design in his free time, while between jobs. It was more a presentation of his being inventive, in seeing a problem and coming up with an answer to it, than a response to public demand.His design was then presented to the London Passenger Transport Board, whose members refused to accept it, feeling that not showing relative distances between stations was silly and unreasonable. Still, after a time, in order to increase subway ridership and therefore earn more money, the Board decided to print a limited number of copies. Gradually, Beck's map became a huge success.For most of his life, Beck continued to make small improvements to the diagram, but he kept its basic designs and ideas. His clear diagrammatic method of mapping has been generally accepted and followed in the field of information design not only in London but also around the world.4.What is the disadvantage of early subway maps?A.They were not to scale.B.They were hard to draw.C.They were not userfriendly.D.They were seldom updated.5.Which aspect of a subway map did Beck focus on?A.Its simplicity.B.Its vivid details.C.Its completeness.D.Its geographical accuracy.6.What do we know about Beck's map from Paragraphs 4 and 5?A.It was created accidentally.B.It was an immediate success.C.It was a reflection of his creativity.D.It was designed to meet public need.7.How did Beck contribute to the world?A.He changed the construction of subways.B.He inspired designers to improve subway maps.C.He made the first scaleddown linear map.D.He provided a model for the design of subway maps.C[2024·成都市高三摸底测试]It's one of the ultimate tests of willpower: you've been wandering around the market for hours and you're tired and hungry. Then you catch a smell of something fragrant (香的) and delicious, probably fried and almost certainly fattening. Junk food companies are well aware that the smell of their product sets off a desire in your brain and that you'll pay for that later. It is a response that has been researched, and you'd better believe your favorite fastfood chains have marketing teams that are using that research to their advantage.Let's take a closer look at this process. Have you ever noticed that whatever indulgent food (放纵型食品) catches your attention tends to be most appealing just after you first smell it? A couple of minutes later you are standing in line, and it isn't quite as appealing as it was just moments ago, but now you've invested time, so you trust your first feeling to treat yourself.But a recent statement says that this is actually the right moment to walk away. Dipayan Biswas, a marketing professor, found there is a direct connection between how long a person is exposed to indulgent food smells and choosing healthier foods. “The results of a series of experiments show that extended exposure of more than two minutes to junk food smells leads to fewer purchases of unhealthy foods compared wi th no smell or a nonjunkfoodrelated smell,” reads the summary of his study.What appears to be going on here is that the brain doesn't necessarily distinguish between a pleasurable smell and a pleasant taste. “Extended exposure to an indulgent food smell brings pleasure in the mind, which in turn reduces the desire for actual consumption of indulgent foods,” he explains. So next time you feel you don't have the willpower to resist cookies, smell all that sweetness for just a minute or two. To your brain it's the same as actually eating cookies, and the purchase desire would decrease.8.What can we learn about junk food smells from the first paragraph?A.They hardly affect people's food choices.B.They can make a difference in marketing.C.They are unlikely to fool wise customers.D.They finally decrease people's purchase desire.9.What does the second paragraph basically serve as?A.An example. B.An argument.C.A comparison. D.A comment.10.Which statement will Biswas probably agree with?A.The influence of food smells changes over time.B.The senses of taste and smell are closely linked.C.The behavior of smelling food doesn't equal eating it.D.The brain can't tell where sensory pleasure is from.11.What is the best title for the text?A.Train your brain to resist junk foodB.Smells of junk food can keep you off itC.Watch out for tricky marketing toolsD.Food addiction is never about willpowerDForests absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) from Earth's atmosphere, which makes them a key part of easing climate change. But humans may have already made the world's largest rainforest useless in—and perhaps even detrimental to—the battle against greenhouse gases, a new study finds.According to the study, the carbon balance of the Amazon rainforest is damaged largely due to largescale (大规模的) human disturbance to the Amazon ecosystem, with wildfires—many deliberately set to clear land for agriculture and industry—responsible for most of the CO2 emissions (排放量) from the region and the hotter dry seasons.“The first very bad news is that forest burning produces around three times more CO2 than the forest absorbs,” lead author of the study Luciana Gatti said. “The second bad news is that the places where deforestation is 30 percent or more show carbon emissions 10 times higher than the places where less than 20 percent of forest is destroyed.”In the new study, the researchers analyzed nearly 600 measurements of CO2 and CO concentration at four spots in the Brazilian Amazon collected from 2010 to 2024. The team found that, on average, fires poured about 1.6 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year, while healthy trees absorbed only about half a billion tons. The team also found that, while the Eastern Amazon, which has seen historically greater amounts of deforestation over the past 40 years, has become a place where carbon emissions are from, the Western Amazon, which has seen much less deforestation, is neither a carbon “producer” nor a carbon sink. There, CO2absorption by healthy forests balances the emissions from fires.The Amazon Basin contains about 2.8 million square miles of jungle, representing more than half of the tropical (热带的) rainforest area remaining on Earth. “Limiting deforestation, and especially wildfires, is key to changing this dangerous trend in the Amazon. Imagine if we could keep the Amazon from fires, the forest could be a carbon sink,” Gatti said. “But we are doing the opposite—we are accelerating climate change.”12.What does the underlined word “detrimental” mean in Paragraph 1?A.Harmful. B.Sensitive.C.Responsible. D.Ineffective.13.Which is the major cause of the Amazon's carbon imbalance?A.Climate change.B.Industrial development.C.Human activity.D.Natural wildfires.14.What did the researchers discover in their study?A.The Eastern Amazon is relatively betterpreserved.B.The Amazon witnessed more fires from 2010 to 2024.C.The majority of forest fires resulted from deforestation.D.The Amazon rainforest creates more CO2 than it absorbs.15.What does Gatti imply at the end of the text?A.More forests should have been protected.B.The Amazon rainforest is shrinking rapidly.C.People should greatly reduce their carbon footprint.D.Preventing fires helps improve the Amazon's condition.其次节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
