雅思考试阅读理解基本技巧(一篇)

雅思考试阅读理解基本技巧(一篇)雅思考试阅读理解基本技巧 1首先,针对阅读的Heading题,先略读文章的段落是很重要的。
因为这样能快速获取文章的大意,而且有的文章有小标题的,也可以通过各段的主题句来获取段落的大意。
对于选段落标题的题目,我们最不应该的就是先看选项了,因为选项往往会出现多余的题目,而且有的很相近,等考生看完也不能分清什么。
然后再去看文章段落。
回来再看选项就会发现,把刚刚看的东西都忘记了。
略读技巧的一个突出应用,属于对于各段内容的略读。
除此之外,雅思阅读考试当中还有一种选择全文大意的选择题。
这样的选择题要求考生为全文选择一个合适的标题,需要的是考生对于全文略读的能力。
除去直接应用于题型之外,其实在雅思阅读考试中,略读这一技能是贯穿在每一篇文章当中的。
在进行每篇文章的答题之前,考生都需要通过这个方法来对于文章的大致结构及各段的'内容有个基本的了解。
再次,就是扫读在雅思阅读中的重要性了。
扫读是对细节信息的定位过程。
它的目的是快速找到文章的出题点。
这种方法在考试中尤其重要。
建议考生先要看雅思题目中的题干,找出关键词(通常都是名词,动词和形容词),然后再回到原文中找相应的位置,扫读通常都一目三四行,要求考生有一定的词汇量,因为有些关键词,在题干中是一个词,而在文章中却被替换掉了,如果被替换的单词考生不认识的话,就很难在扫读过程中找到出题点。
从而找到正确答案就更困难了。
我们从题干入手找题目中的定位词,忽略与题目要求不相关的信息,然后回到原文迅速找到定位词所在的地方,即答案可能出现的地方。
最合适的定位词最好是形式稳定且比较容易被扫到。
比如说,雅思阅读定位词有人名、地名、机构名称等,还有数词、特殊印刷字体的词,建议考生遇到这些词的时候一定要用笔把它们画出来,这样在做题的时候找定位词就容易多了。
掌握了上面两种方法之后,就要看考生的词汇量和语法的掌握程度了。
因为雅思阅读是精读和泛读相结合的。

As you would expect, English-speaking countries such as Australia, the UK and the US have made the top 10, but the number one may be a surprise: Germany. Two Far Eastern countries, i.e. China and Malaysia, made it to the top 5, ranking higher than the US, Japan, Russia, Nigeria and Brazil.The benefits of studying abroadRussell Howe, a Scot who is currently studying a Business degree at Stellinga International College in the Netherlands, previously also studied in India (which came 11th on the list). 'People often ask me why I needed to travel, because British universities have a good reputation elsewhere in the world. But this is not something I needed to do, but something I really wanted to do. I have learnt different ways of looking at things, but I also found out how much we all have in common, wherever we are from. All of this will be useful in my future career.'Russell is not the only international student in his department. Business and administrative courses are the most popular with international students, followed by engineering and technology, social studies, creative arts and design, medicine-related topics and law. Manal, a student at the Faculty of Art and Design at Stellinga, says she has similar reasons to Russell, but there is more: 'I wanted to broaden my understanding of the world. I have enhanced my language skills: I am more fluent inEnglish and have also taken a level 1 Dutch evening class. One of my modules is about European art, and I believe that I am benefiting more from studying this in Europe than anywhere else. I have managed to visit other countries in my holidays, and really feel that this whole experience is developing my global perspective. I also hope that I have made lasting friendships and contacts.'Enabling student accessWhat is it that makes these countries student-friendly? Well, all of them make it easy for international students to apply, and provide ongoing support once they are there. They also offer good quality degrees, which are valued highly in other countries too. The fact that Germany came out as winner is probably due to the country's efforts towards internationalization. One aspect of this is that the country welcomes foreign students by charging them the same fees as home students, meaning that in some universities overseas students study for free. Many classes are conducted in English, and so are most leaflets, making it easier for international students to keep informed and take part in student life. Apart from the financial reasons already mentioned, this type of educational internationalization can help with the quality of research in these universities, through e.g. networking, team work and the sharing of skills. For students, it is a valuable addition to their skills and experience at a time when jobs are not easy to find.Part 3: HomeworkQuestions 1-11Using NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the passage for each answer, complete the table and the flow chart below.The required documents:The online application process for people outside the EU:Applying to StellingaCollegeWhy Stellinga?Thank you for your interest in Stellinga International College.

雅思阅读真题附答案及解析文库

雅思阅读真题附答案及解析文库一、READING1、READING PASSAGE 2You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 14-25, which are based on Reading Passage 2 on the following pages.Domestic Division of Labour A Domestic division of labour refers to the division of tasks, roles and duties, within the householdWith the increased entry of married women into formal employment, sociologists began to look more closely at the processes that linked home and workplace, including the question of whether or not women's increased involvement in paid labour led to a renegotiation of the “traditional” domestic roles and organization of domestic labourA huge empirical and theoretical literature was then generated in a relatively short time. B Work within the family context takes a variety of formsIn many Western households in the 1990s, it may include tasks such as caring for members of the family, contributing to the household finances, maintaining the house, interacting with kin and establishing and sustaining community relationshipsAs a way of fostering domestic harmony and creating a manageable routine, some couples choose one of three different styles of household role division: traditional, egalitarian or collaborative. C Most people who fit the traditional pattern are characteristically men and women who are conventionally married, or have been living together as a couple for some timeThe man and woman have totally separate spheres of influence and responsibilityFor instance, the husband or male parter is usually the chief decision maker and the major financial providerHe brings in the bulk of money and has the final say over major household purchases and important financial transactionsThe wife or female partner engages in child care and household management, of which the latter also includes maintaining contact with relatives and family members who may not live under the same roof. D In ideal situations, an egalitarian style is typified by an equal interchange in household tasks: for example, one partner does the dishes for one week, while the other cooksThen, the roles are reversed for the next weekAs an alternative, individual jobs may be divided equally, so that one partner handles half of the household tasks and the other partner takes on the remaining equal proportionHowever, this 50/50 scenario does not usually result in a permanent arrangement some specialization does tend to creep inHuman beings are not machines to be switched on and off at precise moments, nor is society organized in such a way as to allow a man to do exactly half the breadwinning and a woman to do exactly half the child rearing. E The collaborative style is a compromise between the two extremes of traditional and egalitarianIn these families, partners can specialize in household activities and the inclination is towards doing what one is expert at or prefersTypically, a woman may do all the cleaning while a man may do all the cooking because they choose to do soIt does not follow patriarchal prescription where a father always has foremost family authority and where the mother's domain is centred around the children and the householdIt is guided by personal interest rather than social conventionAs such, decisions may be deferred to the one who is the specialist in the particular areaIn some cases, couples may reverse their selected roles and the woman may become the main breadwinner, while the man may in turn be the primary child care-giver. F Traditional, egalitarian and collaborative styles are viewed by some as being dependent on female and male gender-role attitudes, both of self arid partnerIn other words, personality differences are said to determine whether men and women adopt one division of labour style in preference to anotherFemininity or female gender-role stereotypes are commonly associated with the emotional, nurturing qualities usually ascribed to a woman, while masculinity or a male gender-role stereotype is seen in the context of risk- taking, assertiveness and independence—usually attributed to men. G An opposing view sees the three family divisions of labour styles as a reflection of the progressive changes couples make in response to changing life situations, rather than being an aspect of personalityEssentially, adult women and men modify their behaviour within the context of family life, in accordance with current situationsIt is these life situations, rather than people, that should be categorised as typically feminine or masculineFor example, when a couple, attends to a baby or cares for a sick relative, it is the feminine qualities that are foremostIn contrast, competition and the degree of aggressiveness often required an outside employment, are associated with stereotypical masculine qualities. H So, depending upon demands in life situations, men and women assign what they believe are the appropriate masculine and feminine characteristics to particular contextsMoreover, depending upon how stereotyped the activities are that they are involved in, gender-roles may alter.1.Questions 14-19Reading passage 2 has eight paragraphs, A-H.Choose the correct heading for paragraphs A-H from the list of headings below.Write the correct number, i-x, in boxes 14-19 on your answer sheet.List of Headingsi Compromise between two extreme stylesii An opposite standpoint from a new angleiii Factors that influence the change of gender roleiv Stereotyped activities in a familyv Conventional family patternvi Primary child care-giver (根据关键词“collaborative style”定位至E段第二句。

Reading Passage 1
Birthday traditions in different countries Birthdays are celebrated all over the world. Some traditions are fairly similar from country to country: candles, cakes and birthday wishes, birthday games and pinches for good luck. Other customs are quite different. Here are a few.
Argentina –In Argentina, as in many Latin American countries, one of the most important birthday parties is a girl’s fifteenth. When girls turn 15, they have a huge party and dance the waltz first with their father, and then the boys at the party.
China –The birthday child pays respect to the parents and receives a gift of money. Friends and relatives are invited to lunch, and noodles are served to wish the birthday child a long life. Denmark – A flag is flown outside a window to show that someone who lives in that house is having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child’s bed while they are sleeping so they
will see them immediately when they wake up. The Netherlands –Special year birthdays such as 5, 10, 15, 20, 21 are called “crown” years and the birthday child receives an especially large gift. The family also decorates the birthday child’s chair with flowers or paper streamers, paper flowers and balloons.
India –Usually Indian children wear white to school. However, on their birthday children wear coloured clothes to school and give out chocolates to everyone in the class. Their best friend helps them to do this.
Japan – The birthday child wears new clothes to mark the occasion. Certain birthdays are more important than others and these are celebrated with a visit to the local shrine. These are the third and seventh birthdays for girls and the fifth for boys.
Questions 1-5
Match the countries in the box with their descriptions.

Reading Passage 2
The American Revolution was not a revolution in the sense of a radical or total change. It was not a sudden and violent
overturning of the political and social framework, such as later occurred in France and Russia, when both were already independent nations. Significant changes were ushered in, but they were not breathtaking. What happened was accelerate evolution rather than outright revolution. During the conflict itself people went on working and praying, marrying and playing. Most of them were not seriously disturbed by the actual fighting, and many of the more isolated communities scarcely knew that a war was on.
America’s War of Independence heralded the birth of three modern nations. One was Canada, which received its first large influx of English-speaking population from the thousands of loyalists who fled there from the United States. Another was Australia, which became a penal colony now that America was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. The third newcomer –the United States –based itself squarely on republican principles.。
