2016年大学英语六级考试如何提升阅读能力(一)

距离今年的英语六级考试还有3个月,同学们要认真复习了,今天小编为同学们找到了一套科学的学习方法,不仅可以提高英语能力,而且对英语六级考试也有切实的帮助。

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套左右的六级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做出标记,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。

①准确性

英语初学者在词汇的使用上一般太宽太泛,欠缺准确性。比如想到走,只会用walk, 其实表示“走”的词汇有很多,如:stroll漫步, 闲逛; stagger 摇晃地走等等。

②形象性

英语母语的人在使用英语的时候用词经常非常形象化,而我们一般用词就比较刻板。比如上升,很多人只会用increase, 其实用climb 这个简单的词就很形象。再如下文:

Diana's sudden death triggered a global outpouring of grief and boosted an already thriving “Diana Industry”. Described in an editorial in the Daily Mirror tabloid as the “grief industry”, interest in Diana has also sp awned hundreds of "exclusive" biographies by people who claim to have been close to her.

trigger n. (枪的)扳机; v. 引发, 引起, 触发

spawn n.鱼等的)卵; v. 产卵,催生,造成,使产生

③多样性

词汇的多样性也是看一个语言学习者词汇掌握是否丰富的重要方面。比如一篇文章讲汽车,其中就使用了car / motorcar / automobile / auto / vehicle 等词进行替换,你如果都掌握了,就可以很容易判断文章的主题。还有一篇关于老年人的作文,一般人只会用old people, 如果你使用了the old / the elderly / the aged / the elderly population / senior citizens, 显然就技高一筹。再如阅读理解中原文用legislator, 答案用lawmaker进行替换。以上这些例子都说明了词汇的多样性的重要。

④感情色彩及语气

动词、形容词和副词等的使用经常都表达了作者的感情色彩和语气,把握这一点对深入理解原文,或者考试时解题都很有作用。

The study's director _89___ that “interactive leadership may emerge 90 the management style of choice of many organizations.” (2003.1 CET-6 Cloze)

A)predicted B) proclaimed C) defied D) diagnosed

这道题有争议,因为A)和B)从中文的意思上来看都可以,其实如果注意到句子中的may所表达的不确定语气就可以确定本题必选A) predicted 无疑。因为predicted 意思是预测,表达的是一种不确定性,而proclaimed 一般表示在正式场合的宣布、声明,无此语气。

⑤复合词

现代英语中复合词的使用非常广泛,且很多字典上都不一定能查到,平时要注意多总结。比如-free 这个词表示“没有,免除”,可以组成很多复合词,flood-free 没有洪水的,fat-free 没有脂肪的。再如孙英杰B尿样阳性,face a multi-year ban, 体会一下复合词的使用是不是句子有了英语的味道

2.总结文章中动词和名词(动宾)搭配、形容词和名词的搭配、副词和动词、形容词的搭配、各类介词搭配(动词和介词、形容词和介词、名词和介词、介词和名词)。

①动词和名词(动宾)搭配

动词作为英语中最活跃的词性,具有强大的组词功能,尤其是与名词的搭配千变万化,但又在很大程度上是约定俗成的。如果不加以注意,就容易犯错误。比如一位同学作文中的表达:People take more emphasis on the health,这里的take就应该用place或者put。曾经请同学翻译一句话:他的英语在这个学校最好。一般人都翻译成:His English is the best in this school. 其实如果平时掌握了地道的动宾搭配,翻译成:His English tops this school. 是不是更好呢

例如:

Chinese President Hu Jintao and British Prime Minister Tony Blair reached vital consensus on Wednesday on promoting the existing comprehensive strategic partnership to a higher level.

从以上句子中我们就必须总结两个动宾搭配:

(1)reach consensus on … 在…方面达成共识;

(2)promote the existing comprehensive strategic partnership 促进现有的全面战略伙伴关系

②形容词和名词的搭配

英语中形容词表达的涵义很广,同一个形容词可以修饰不同的名词,不同的形容词可以修饰同样的名词,学习中一定要注意积累。如有个同学的造句:The traffic in Nanjing is crowded. 这里crowded 就用错了,应该用heavy。另外,heavy 还可以修饰smoker / rain 等等。再如outstanding / superior / rare / top 都可以形容

students, 指优秀的学生。不要想到好坏就想到good, bad,。比如不好的效果可以用ill effects , unfavorable effects 等等。

③副词和动词、形容词的搭配

副词的使用经常使你的句子非常简洁和地道,比如你听到小日本被炸了,你的反应是不是pleasantly shocked (愉快的震惊)呢再如intensely / crucially important 都可以代替very important。如果你是李宇春的忠实粉丝,但如果是a hopelessly devoted fan 而耽误了学习就不好啦。

④各类介词搭配(动词和介词、形容词和介词、名词和介词、介词和名词)

有专家称,英语是介词的语言,从这一点就可以看出介词的重要性。多掌握各类介词固定搭配,可以使你的英语表达更地道。

3.注意对文章中重要词汇进行一定的扩展。

我们可以从词汇的同义词、反义词,同根词、相关性等等角度进行扩展,让你的词汇形成一个网络,而不是孤立的个体。

4.正确识别代词与抽象名词的指代

如果无法正确识别指代,读者就无法把句子和句子连接成具有连贯意义的整体,就无法把握作者的思路延展。

例1:2003年6月六级阅读理解第三篇

(32)Take the case of public education alone. The principal difficulty faced by the schools has been the tremendous increase in the number of pupils. This

has been caused by the advance of the legal age for going into industry and the impossibility of finding a job even when the legal age has been reached. (This = the tremendous increase in the number of pupils.) In view of the technological improvements in the last few years, business will require in the future proportionately fewer workers than ever before. The result will be still further raising of he legal age for going into employment, and still further difficulty in finding employment when hat age has been attained. If we cannot put our children to work, we must put them in school. (本文是一篇人文类的议论文,讨论的主要对象public education在第一句话中就提到,属于开门见山类的文章。第一段讲了公立学校面临的主要困难是学生数量的巨大增长,以及增长的原因。)

32. What is the reason for the increase in the number of students

[定位与替换] 本题问学生数量增长的原因是什么为典型的因果关系考点。问题指向原文第一段第一句,公立学校面临的主要问题是学生数量的增长。接着讲了两个原因(This has been caused by …):合法就业年龄的提高(也就是在一定年龄以下不能就业)和达到合法年龄后无法找到工作。所以选B) Raising of the legal age for going to work. 合法工作年龄的提高。

[干扰项分析] A) The requirement of educated workers by business. 企业对受过教育的工人的要求。文中没有提到,属于无中生有。C) The trend toward a shorter workday. 工作时间缩短的趋势。此为第二段第一句的内容,但偏离了考点。D) People's concern for the future of the next generation. 人们对下一代的未来的关心。文中也没有提到,属于无中生有。

如果无法正确识别文章中This 的指代,解题就会遇到困难。现在的六级英语命题者,喜欢从指代处出题。

例2:2002年6月阅读第一篇:

Indeed, the human history has not been merely touched by global climate change, some scientists argue, it has in some instances been driven by it. (some scientists argue为插入语,第一个it指代the human history,第二个it指代global climate change)

第三步:总结文章中的好的短句、长难句、考点句;总结文章中句子如何开头,句子之间的关系、衔接,段落之间的衔接,并记忆和运用可以在作文中使用的句型。

例1:He is a big spender. 他花钱大手大脚。

运用:Many young adults are big spenders. 许多年轻人花钱大手大脚。

例2:1949 witnessed the liberation of China.

运用:The dawn of the new century witnessed the increasing popularity of the web.

中国人写英文句子多喜欢用第一人称开头,写作文时候开头也缺乏变化。所以平时在超精读时仔细研究文章中的句子是如何开头是很有必要的。

例3:He got off the plane. Reporters surrounded him. 这两个句子没有语法问题,但放在一起就显得缺乏连贯性。如果改成He got off the plane and was

surrounded by reporters 或者He got off the plane. And he was surrounded by reporters 就可以了。所以平时要多研究英文句子是如何衔接的。

例4:2002年6月六级阅读第二篇

(29) Our obsession (迷恋) with thinness is also fueled by health concerns. ……

以上是某一段第一句话,请注意also衔接两段的作用。

29. The author criticizes women's obsession with thinness __________.

[定位与替换] 本题询问作者是如何批评妇女对瘦的着迷的。由关键词obsession with thinness定位到第五段第一句。但该句只给出了部分答案。注意also这个词,表明人们对瘦的迷恋还有原因,应该在上面一段。第四段说瘦现在被认为是新的优点的标志。带来的结果是肥胖被认为是不好的,因为肥胖意味着缺乏精神力量。整个社会以瘦为美,作者对人们迷恋瘦是因为社会风气使然,这是从社会的角度。第五段第一句的话说,我们对瘦的迷恋部分原因是我们对健康的关注另外,从文中可以看出作者是从医学的观点来说明疾病不一定是和体重有关,太迷恋瘦也有可能造成对健康的损害。所以本题应该选B) from sociological and medical points of view从社会学和医学的角度。解答本题需要整合两段内容,并具有概括能力。

For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. In 1985 when a Japan Air Lines (JAL) jet crashed, its president, Yasumoto Takagi, called each victim’s family to apologize, and then promptly resigned. And in 1987, when a subsidiary of Toshiba sole sensitive military technology to the former Soviet Union, the chairman of Toshiba gave up his post. These executive actions, which Toshiba calls “the highest form of apology,”may seem bizarre to US managers. No one at Boeing resigned after the JAL crash, which may have been caused by a faulty Boeing repair. The difference between the two business cultures centers around different definitions of delegation. While US executives give both responsibility and authority to their employees, Japanese executives delegate only authority—the responsibility is still theirs. Although the subsidiary that sold the sensitive technology to the Soviets had its own management, the Toshiba top executives said they “must take personal responsibility for not creating an atmosphere throughout the Toshiba group that would make such activity unthinkable, even in an independently run subsidiary.” Such acceptance of community responsibility is not unique to businesses in Japan. School principals in Japan have resigned when their students committed major crimes after school hours. Even if they do not quit, Japanese executives will often accept primary responsibility in other ways, such as taking the first pay cut when a company gets into financial trouble. Such personal sacrifices, even if they are largely symbolic, help to create the sense of community and employee loyalty that is crucial to the Japanese way of doing business. Harvard Business School professor George Lodge calls the ritual acceptance of blame “almost a feudal (封建的) way of purging (清除) the community of dishonor,”and to some in the United States, such resignations look cowardly. However, in an era in which both business and governmental leaders seem particularly good at evading responsibility, many US managers would probably welcome an infusion (灌输) of the Japanese sense of responsibility, If, for instance,

大学英语六级选词填空应试技巧

大学英语四级阅读:选词填空技巧汇总 选词填空的考察形式 一篇280词左右的文章,文章中挖出10个空,并统一给出A-O 15个备选答案。选词填空区别于完形填空,有更大的解题难度,原因在于: 1. 完形填空每题都是四选一,选词填空第一题要十五选一,就算用到排除法,最后一题也要六选一,而且在十五个选项中还有五个根本不会用到,难度加大; 2. 完形填空每题的四个选项都是统一的词性,只需要辨析词义、搭配就基本可以作答,而选词填空的十五个选项有多个词性,解题时需要同时判断词性和词义,难度加大; 3. 完形填空每题的四个选项往往都是统一时态,统一形式,而在选词填空中会涉及选项的动词时态、第三人称单数形式、被动主动语态,名词的单复数等的辨析,难度加大。 针对选词填空的解题方法分为三步 1. 预览选项,了解词义并把选项分为四大类词性:名词n,动词v,形容词a,副词ad,在每个选项后作词性的简要标记; 2. 精读全文开头,把握文章主题,并以三个空或一个段落为一个单位,利用前后文判 断每空的词性; 3. 把对应词性的选项逐一带回原文,含义通顺,时态、主谓搭配一致的为正确选项。 四级考试的常用后缀在判断选项词性时可以有一定帮助作用。在根据前后文判断每空的词性时,一些经常考察的形式如下: 名词:通常来说,冠词(如a,an,the)、形容词、介词后面搭配名词,即"a/an/the/adj./prep. + n。", 举例说明:Education soon became a _____. 冠词a后面加可数名词的单数形式,正确答案是nightmare,这句话的意思是"教育很快成了一种噩梦。" As the trade winds lessen in _____, the ocean temperatures rise causing the Peru current flowing in from the east to warm up by as much as 5 degrees. (06-6) 介词in后面加名词,正确答案是strength,这句话的意思是"当信风强度减弱的时候,海洋温度上升,导致从东部流入的秘鲁洋流上升了5摄氏度之多。"较难的一个例子:Husbands and children now do some of these jobs, a ____ that has changed the target market for many products. (06-12) 这里可以用两种判断方法来判断横线处所填词的词性。第一种方法,用句子结构来判断,前面一句话,husbands and children now do some of these jobs,这是一个完整的句子,主语husbands and children,谓语动词do,宾语some of these jobs;后面的that 引导的是一个同位语从句,它所修饰的中心词就是a后面需要填的词,而定语从句的中心词是名词,所以横线处应填一个名词。第二种方法,根据刚才所说的"a + 名词"的语法规则来判断,横线处应该填一个名词,而且是一个可数名词的单数形式。正确答案是situation。这句话的意思是"丈夫和孩子现在也做一些这样的工作了,这种情况就改变了许多产品的目标市场。" 动词:动词的考点很多,我们来看其中三种: 1. 主语后缺谓语动词。举例说明:He ____ from his teachers, came home in tears and thought about dropping out. 在这句话里,主语是he,本来后面应该有一个动词作谓语,但是这里没有动词,而是在横线后面出现了一个介词短语from his teachers,这样这句话就缺少谓语动词,所以横线上应该填一个动词。正确答案是hid,这句话的意思是"他不愿见老师,

2014年12月大学英语四级考试备考资料《阅读理解》答题技巧

2014年12月大学英语六级考试备考资料《阅读理解》答题技巧 需要指出的是,在一篇文章的阅读过程中,我们要根据不同的要求采用不同的阅读方法。总的来说,在正式考试中,阅读理解部分可参照下列步骤进行。首先用“快读”的方法浏览全文,以了解中心思想及大意。在此基础上,可根据要回答的问题,用“查读”的方法,或(查到文章中与答题内容有关的范围后)用“细读”的方法,来确定答案。回答问题时,可在文章中划出关键词句,以此作为答题的依据。全部问题答完之后,如时间允许,可再快读一遍全文,核实一下所确定的答题的答案是否符合全文的精神。 1. 快读(Skimming) 快读的目的是用浏览全文的方法了解文章的大意和主题思想,并对文章的结构有个总的概念。顾名思义,快读时,速度要快。一般地说,250字左右的短文要求在二、三分钟内看完。快读时精力必须十分集中,不必去记忆细节;遇到个别生词及难懂的词句,均应略过,以求对全文总体意思的了解。为了更好地抓住全文的中心思想,在快读时要留心文章中某些反复出现的词语,这些往往与文章的主题有关。快读时,还应特别注意文章的开始段和结束段以及文章中每一段的段首句和结尾句,因为它们往往是对文章内容最好的概括。 2. 查读(Scanning) 查读的目的主要是为了寻找文章中某些特定的信息。在查读时,目光要自上而下、一目数行地寻视与答题内容相关的词句,与此无关的内容要很快掠过。当回答有关who, when, where等文章细节问题的时候,用此方法我们一般都可很快找到答案,可以说“一查即得”。但是有些与文章细节有关的问题如:why, how等难以找到现成的回答,这时首先需要通过查读,找到文中与答题内容相关的范围,然后再用下面要讨论的“细读”方法,方可得出准确的答案。 3. 细读(Reading for full understanding) 找到文章中的有关范围以后,即在此范围内逐句阅读,特别对关键词、句要仔细琢磨,以便对其有较深刻、较准确的理解和掌握。不仅要理解其字面意思而且要通过推理和判断,弄清文章中“字里行间”所隐含的意思。在细读中,对没有学过的生词,可根

大学英语六级阅读理解及答案

Reading Comprehension for CET 6 Passage 1 In the 1962 movie Lawrence of Arabia,one scene shows an American newspaper reporter eagerly snapping photos of men looting a sabotaged train.One of the looters,Chief Auda abu Tayi of the Howeitat clan,suddenly notices the camera and snatches it.Am I in this?he asks,before smashing it open.To the dismayed reporter,Lawrence explains,He thinks these things will steal his virtue.He thinks you're a kind of thief. As soon as colonizers and explorers began taking cameras into distant lands,stories began circulating about how indigenous peoples saw them as tools for black magic.The ignorant natives may have had a point.When photography first became available,scientists welcomed it as a more objective way of recording faraway societies than early travelers' exaggerated accounts.But in some ways,anthropological photographs reveal more about the culture that holds the camera than the one that stares back.Up into the 1950s and 1960s,many ethnographers sought pure pictures of primitive cultures,routinely deleting modern accoutrements such as clocks and Western dress.They paid men and women to re-enact rituals or to pose as members of war or hunting parties,often with little regard for veracity.Edward Curtis,the legendary photographer of North American Indians,for example,got one Makah man to pose as a whaler with a spear in 1915--even though the Makah had not hunted whales in a generation. These photographs reinforced widely accepted stereotypes that indigenous cultures were isolated,primitive,and unchanging.For instance,National Geographic magazine's photographs have taught millions of Americans about other cultures.As Catherine Lutz and Jane Collins point out in their 1993 book Reading National Geographic,the magazine since its founding in 1888 has kept a tradition of presenting beautiful photos that don't challenge white,middle-class American conventions.While dark-skinned women can be shown without tops,for example,white women's breasts are taboo.Photos that could unsettle or disturb,such as areas of the world torn asunder by war or famine,are discarded in favor of those that reassure,to conform with the society's stated pledge to present only kindly visions of foreign societies.The result,Lutz and Collins say,is the depiction of an idealized and exotic world relatively free of pain or class conflict. Lutz actually likes National Geographic a lot.She read the magazine as a child,and its lush imagery influenced her eventual choice of anthropology as a career.She just thinks that as people look at the photographs of other cultures,they should be alert to the choice of composition and images. 1.The main idea of the passage is______________. [A]Photographs taken by Western explorers reflect more Westerners’ perception of the indigenous cultures and the Western values. [B]There is a complicated relationship between the Western explorers and the primitive peoples. [C]Popular magazines such as National Geographic should show pictures of the exotic and idealized worlds to maintain high sales. [D]Anthropologists ask the natives to pose for their pictures,compromising the truthfulness of their pictures. 2.We can infer from the passage that early travelers to the native lands often_________. [A]took pictures with the natives [B]gave exaggerated accounts of the native lands

We have probably all had ... 下面是我给大家整理的,希望对大家有帮助。 Laziness is a sin(罪), everyone knows that. We have probably all had lectures pointing out that laziness is immoral, that it is wasteful, and that lazy people will never amount to anything in life. But laziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complex reasons rather than simple wish to avoid work. Some people who appear to be lazy are suffering from much more serious problems. They may be so distrustful of their fellow workers that they are unable to join in any group task for fear of ridicule or of having their idea stolen. These people who seem lazy may be ruined by a fear of failure that prevents fruitful work. Or other sorts of fantasies (幻想) may prevent work; some people are so busy planning, sometimes planning great deals of fantastic achievements that they are unable to deal with whatever "lesser" work is on hand. Still other people are not avoiding work; strictly speaking, they are merely procrastinating rescheduling their day.

In order to acquire knowledge, we have to study hard. However, it can not be ignored that effective learning needs both motivation and scientific methods. It’s not difficult for us to come up with se veral possible reasons accounting for this perspective. In the first place, learning is a kind of serious and hard work. Therefore, not everyone is able to keep going without certain internal motivations. Besides, scientific methods play a significant role in improving learning efficiency. Many of us believe that the longer you study, the better grades you will get. But a lot of experiences of our classmates prove that this view is not entirely correct. In details, studying for a long time is exhausting and it is very likely to decrease study efficiency, which is critical to academic performance. From what has been mentioned above, we can easily draw a conclusion that the importance of motivation and methods in learning is self-evident. And it is necessary for us to develop good learning methods. 【参考范文译文】 俗话说,知识能改变命运。因此,为了获得知识,我们必须努力学习。然而,不可忽略的是,有效的学习既离不开学习动力的存在,也离不开科学的学习方法。 不难列举上述观点的原因。首先,学习是一件严肃且困难的事。因此,不是每个人都能在没有某种内在动机的情况下一直继续。此外,科学的方法在提高学习效率方面发挥着重要的作用。我们当中有不少人都认为,学习的时间越长,成绩就会越好。但是我们周边同学的很多经历证明这个观点并不完全正确。具体来说,长时间的学习是累人的,因此它很可能会降低学习效率,而学习效率对于学业成绩来说却是至关重要的。 综上所述,我们可以很容易就得出如下结论:学习动机和方法的重要性是不言而喻的,因此我们非常有必要形成良好的学习方法。

大学英语四六级考试必知应试技巧

大学英语四六级考试必知应试技巧 巨微英语 一、听力: 1、对话题;用试音和念题的时间熟悉选项,找关键信息点,找像but,however,一类的转折词都有可能含有关键信息,再通过句中重要名词和常见高频动词判断场景,提高准确率。 2、短文理解,一般西方人在一篇文章中开头结尾都会包含很多信息,理解这些有助于把握整篇文章,再关注一些时间数字地点等信息。 3、复合式听写,听之前迅速浏览全文,判断文章大概内容和结构,观察空格后的语法信息,判断应填的词性单复数时态及语态,重点记那些支撑句子结构的主要成分,即主语谓语宾语,而一些虚词则可省略。 二、阅读: 1、否定词,答题时依靠否定关系,能排除干扰内容。注意,除了运用常见否定词外,否定前缀也要注意。 2、因果连词,如果题目要求从文中找出相应信息,一定要把句子看完整,应对要求解释句子的题目,优先考虑因果关系。 3、转折词,一旦出现对比关系,就能很快判断句间和句内的关系。转折词往往表示前后内容不一样,容易成为出题重点。 4、核心词,题干中反复出现的名词和各段段首反复出现的名词都可能是核心词,

很多题目都和文章或段落的主题有关,有很多正确选项自然不可避免地包含文章主题词或段落核心词。 三、翻译: 1、根据原文含义增减词语,通过添加词语的方式,更忠实的表达原文的隐藏含义。在不影响原意的情况下省略无关紧要的词语。 2、恰当运用词类转换,特别是名词,动词,形容词这类词语。可以转换使用,运用这些可使译文通顺流畅。 3、警惕被动语态,英语中被动语态使用频率要远远高于汉语。如果一味按照原句的语态来翻译,往往使译文显得别扭。 4、通常情况下,长句要分译,短句要合译。 四、写作: 1、字迹清晰,段落分明,每段开头空四至八个字母格。 2、内容完整,紧扣提纲。 3、语法和拼写正确,再追求闪光的句子。

大学英语六级阅读理解练习5篇

1 There was on shop in the town of Mufulira,which was notorious for its color bar. It was a drugstore. While Europeans were served at the counter,a long line of Africans queued at the window and often not only were kept waiting but,when their turn came to be served,were rudely treated by the shop assistants. One day I was determined to make a public protest against this kind of thing,and many of the schoolboys in my class followed me to the store and waited outside to see what would happen when I went in. I simply went into the shop and asked the manager politely for some medicine. As soon as he saw me standing in the place where only European customers were allowed to stand he shouted at me in a bastard language that is only used by an employed when speaking to his servants. I stood at the counter and politely requested in English that I should be served. The manager became exasperated and said to me in English,“If you stand there till Christmas I will never serve you.” I went to the District commissioner's office. Fortunately the District Commissioner was out,for he was one of the old school;however,I saw a young District Officer who was a friend of mine. He was very concerned to hear my story and told me that if ever I wanted anything more from the drugstore all I had to do was come to him personally and he would buy my medicine for me. I protested that that was not good enough. I asked him to accompany me back to the store and to make a protest to the manager. This he did,and I well remember him saying to the manager,“Here is Mr. Kaunda who is a responsible member of the Urban Advisory Council,and you treat him like a common servant.” The manager of the drugstore apologized and said,“If only he had introduced himself and explained who he was,then,of course I should have given him proper service.” I had to explain once again that he had missed my point. Why should I have to introduce myself every time I went into a store…any more than I should have to buy my medicine by going to a European friend?I want to prove that any man of any color,whatever his position,should have the right to go into any shop and buy what he wanted. 1.“Color bar” in the first paragraph comes closest in meaning to ___. A.a bar which is painted in different colors. B.the fact that white and black customers are served separately. C.a bar of chocolate having different colors. D.a counter where people of different colors are served with beer. 2.The writer was,at the time of the story,___. A.a black school teacher B.an African servant C.a black,but a friend of Europeans D.a rich black
