注:1.Oceanography 由Ocean (海洋) 和graphy (学科)组成,意为“海洋学”

2.application 表示“申请”用介词for,表示“应用”用介词to

3.第一句给某个东西下定义,称为篇章定义,必为文章主题

Before the nineteenth century, scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant (不愿意) to go to sea to further his work.

注:1.第二段:在十九世纪之前,对海洋感兴趣的科学家很少,可以推断本文根据时间顺序来描述海洋学发展的过程

2.further 跟在to 后面是个动词,表示“推进”

For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question 'What is at the bottom of the oceans?' had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile (起伏形状) of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.

It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings (测深) were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea.

注:1. it was ...that...强调句型 2. turn to sb. for sth. 向某人请教某事

3. 出现问题中划线词:Maury,1840s 3. investigate 调查,测量

The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea.

注:1.not until 引导的句子要倒装 2.living growth 生物 3.a fact 作同位语

4.contemporary 当代的

5.defy 前后意思相反,可以推出24题答案为C

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.

1. What the author discussed in the previous section is most probably about ____.

A) relationships between causes and results B) classification of reasoning

C)some other common types of reasoning D) some special type of reasoning

2. According to the passage, to do the "effect to effect" reasoning is to reason ____.

A) from cause to effect B) from effect to cause

C) from effect to effect and on to cause D) from effect to cause and on to another effect

3. A necessary cause is ____.

A) one without which it is impossible for the effect to occur B) one of the causes that can produce the effect

C) one that is enough to make the effect occur D) none of them

4. Your refrigerator is not working and you have found that the electric power has been cut off.

The power failure is a ____.

A) necessary cause B) sufficient cause C) contributory cause D) none of them

5. This passage mainly discusses ____.

A) causal reasoning B) classification of cause C) various types of reasoning D) the causal process

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.

Another common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results. We want to know whether cigarettes really do cause lung cancer, what cause malnutrition(营养不良), the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth. We are equally interested in effects: what is the effect of sulphur or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage (污水、污物)in rivers and the sea, of staying up late on the night before an examination?

注:1.reasoning推理 2.第一句Another...下结论,是主题句

3.第二、三句We want to ...an examination?是举例,可以略读

4.malnutrition 中“mal”是表示“不好”的前缀;overnutrition 营养过剩

Causal reasoning may go from cause to effect or from effect to cause. Either way, we reason from what we know to what we want to find out. Sometimes we reason from an effect to a cause and then on to another effect. Thus, if we reason that because the lights have gone out, the refrigerator won't work we first relate the effect (lights out) to the cause (power off) and then relate that cause to another effect. This kind of reasoning is called, for short, effect to effect. It is quite common to reason through an extensive chain of causal relations. When the lights go out we might reason in the following causal chain: lights out-power off-refrigerator not working -temperature will rise-milk will sour. In other words, we diagnose (判定)a succession of effects from the power failure, each becoming the cause of the next.

注:1.causal 原因的,因果关系的

2.三种推理方式:从原因到结果、从结果到原因、从结果到原因再到另一个结果,第三种更重要

3.extensive 广泛的,来自extend延伸extensive reading 泛读

4.In other words 换而言之a succession of 一系列

5.本段讲关系链

Causes are classified as necessary, sufficient, or contributory(起辅助作用的). A necessary cause is one which must be present for the effect to occur, as combustion (燃烧),is necessary to drive a gasoline engine. A sufficient cause is one which can produce an effect unaided (独自的), though there may be more than one sufficient cause: a dead battery is enough to keep a car from starting, but faulty spark plugs(火花塞)or an empty gas tank will have the same effect. A contributory cause is one which helps to produce an effect but cannot do so by itself, as running through a red light may help cause an accident, though other factors --- pedestrians (行人) or other cars in the intersection-must also be present.

注:intersection 交叉路口inter+section

In establishing or refuting (驳斥,反斥) a causal relation it is usually necessary to show the process by which the alleged (所宣称的,所指称的) cause produces the effect. Such an explanation is called a causal process.

注:在证实或驳斥因果关系需要把推理过程显示出来,如灯灭了,牛奶变酸:灯灭了-停电-冰箱不工作-温度上升-牛奶变酸

1. What the author discussed in the previous section is most probably about ____.

2. According to the passage, to do the "effect to effect" reasoning is to reason

A) from cause to effect B) from effect to cause

C) from effect to effect and on to cause D) from effect to cause and on to another effect

3. A necessary cause is ____.

A) one without which it is impossible for the effect to occur B) one of the causes that can produce the effect

C) one that is enough to make the effect occur D) none of them

注:主题题。文中只提到因果关系推理的几种操作方法

Another common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results. We want to know whether cigarettes really do cause

lung cancer, what cause malnutrition(营养不良), the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth. We are equally interested in effects: what is the effect of sulphur or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage (污水、污物)in rivers and the sea, of staying up late on the night before an examination?

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

I hear many parents complaining that their teen-age children are rebelling, I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching at(attempting to seize)one another's hands for reassurance.

注:1.rebel 背叛、反叛

2.从第一句话看出本文是文科文章,所以从态度着手,I wish it were so 说明作者是负态度。

3.should 虚拟语气,表示负态度

4.reassurance=re+assure-ance 使确信;boldly 勇敢的;strike out 开辟

They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up crowded round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon(蚕茧)--- into a larger cocoon.

注:1.But 表明作者负态度 2.set off 开始 3.end up 结果

4.reason 用来解释前面的现象

5.把青少年从众心理比喻成蚕茧

It has become harder and harder for a teen-ager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry firmly carved out a teen-age market. These days every teen-ager can learn from the advertisements what a teen-ager should have and be. And many of today's parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teen-ager who wants to find his or her own path.

注:1.第一句结论句,后面跟着解释 2.第二、三句Industry... 工业广告对青少年的影响

3.第四句And many of... 父母亲对青少年的影响

4.have come to 逐渐如何;

award 奖励,鼓励;popularity 潮流,名声

But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don't care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-with the people who respect you for who you are. That's the only kind of popularity that really counts.

A) Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy.

B)Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.

C) Habit helps one adapt to his own energy cycle.

D) Children have energy cycles, too.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

注:1.第一句提出现象,后面跟着对现象的解释,这种解释一般是考点2.but 转折词和might 虚拟语气都表达作者负态度

3.最后一句话he has proved... 主题句

During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're 'hot'. That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: 'Get up, John! You'll be late for work again!' The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.

注:1.peak 顶峰,高峰 2.forenoon 上午

You can' t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam (鼓起干劲) and work better at your low point.

注:1.第一句话结论句,后面跟着结论的解释 2.stay up 熬夜3.rise 起床4.本段说明针对能量周期我们怎么做

36. In the passage the author's attitude towards 'mixed-ability teaching' is _________

A) critical B) questioning C)approving D) objective

注:1.态度题,找直接评价语句,本文为第一句,正态度 2.critical 批评的,负的

questioning 质疑的,负的approving 赞同的,正的objective 客观的,中性的

We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming (把…按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!

31. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________.

A) he is a lazy person B) he refuses to follow his own energy cycle

C) he is not sure when his energy is low D)he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening

Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won' t change your cycle, but you'll get up steam (鼓起干劲) and work better at your low point.

We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming (把…按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!

注:第一句结论句,文章主题句

Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual (智力)ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality.

B) There is a perfection in nature which sometimes can not be matched by man's creative efforts.

C) The phrase "blind as a bat" is valid.

D) Sonar and radar systems of man are inefficient.

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:

In these days of technological triumphs, it is well to remind ourselves from time to time that living mechanisms are often incomparably more efficient than their artificial imitations. There is no better illustration of this idea than the sonar (声纳) system of bats. It is billions of times more efficient and more sensitive than the radars and sonars designed by man.

4.第一句主题句:天然胜于人工artificial 人工的

5.illustration 例证,本段末句强烈结论

Of course, the bats have had some 50 million years of evolution to refine their sonar. Their physiological mechanisms for echo location, based on all this accumulated experience, therefore deserve our thorough study and analysis.

D) is the same as it was 50 million years ago

注:B 选项体现一段结尾和二段开头,应该优选,含有关系词because,although,not only...but also, as well as 的应该优选To appreciate the precision of the bats' echo location, we must first consider the degree of their reliance upon it. Thanks to sonar, an insect-eating bat can get along perfectly well without eyesight. This was brilliantly demonstrated by the Italian naturalist Lazzaro Spallanzani. He caught some bats in a bell tower, blinded them and released them outdoors. Four of these blind bats were recaptured after they had found their ways back to the bell tower, and on examining their stomachs' contents, Spallanxani found that they had been able to capture and eat flying insects. We know from experiments that bats easily find insects in the dark of night, even when the insects make no sound that can be heard by human ears. A bat will catch hundreds of softbodied silent flying insects in a single hour. It will even detect and chase pebbles (卵石) tossed (向上扔)into the air.

Question 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

In the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs before he can learn to walk, the child must physiologically be capable of producing and experiencing particular emotions before these emotions can be modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes place. One kind of learning is called "classical conditioning". This occurs when one event or stimulus is consistently paired with, or followed by, a reward or punishment, It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to associate his mother's face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort. Negative emotions are learned in a similar fashion.

注:1.physiologically 生理的,mental / phycological 心理的

2.modify 修改、改变;pair with 伴随

3.it is ...that 强调介词状语结构

●分类型文章:1.分为几类就是文章主题

2.抓住各类主体词/基本特征词(通常为动词)

3.多余段落通常例证某一类

The second kind of learning is called "operant conditioning." This occurs when an individual learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments. For example, if a mother always attends to her baby when he cries and cuddles him until he is quiet, she may teach him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to have his mother more.

注:1.operant 操作型的,词源operate

2.cuddle 拥抱

3.第一种classical conditioning:联系而去做;第二种operant conditioning:有奖惩而去做

Every day, we grow and have new experiences. We constantly learn by reading, watching television, interacting with some people, and so forth. This learning affects our emotions. Why is it that we learn to like some people and dislike others? If a person is nice to us, cares about us, we learn to associate this person with positive feelings, such as joy, happiness, and friendliness. On the other hand, if a person is mean to us, does not care about us, and even deliberately does things to harm us, we learn to associate this person with negative feelings, such as unhappiness, discomfort, and anger.

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:

For some time past it has been widely accepted that babies - and other creatures -learn to do things because certain acts lead to

"rewards"; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological (生理的) "drives" as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.

注:1.past 和widely accepted:老观点和大众观点,一般应该是否定的

https://www.doczj.com/doc/de11912150.html,ed also to be widely:另一个老观点

3.In other words 概括老观点

It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.

注:1.behave 行为,举止 2.outcome 结果

3.with no reward except 双重否定,所以是肯定结构

4.本段阐述新观点

Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to "reward" the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still go on making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children's responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement "switched on" a display of lights - and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result, for instance, two left or two right, or even to make as many as three turns to one side.

注:1.study:开始做实验,抓住代表人物、实验目的、实验结果

2.第一句过程,第二句notice 表示结果

3.found 表示实验结果

27. Papousek noticed in his studies that a baby ________.

A) would make learned responses when it saw the milk

28. In Papousek's experiment babies make learned movements of the head in order to ________.

A)have the lights turned on B) be rewarded with milk

C) please their parents D) be praised

注:考第二个实验结果,found 引导

Papousek's light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would "smile and bubble" when the display came on. Papousek concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the world and bring it under intentional control.

注:1.observation 暗示着实验结果 2.fundamental 基本的;urge n.欲望;make sense of 理解

29. The babies would "smile and bubble" at the lights because _________.

A) the lights were directly related to some basic "drives" B) the sight of the lights was interesting

C) they need not turn back to watch the lights D) they succeeded in "switching on" the lights

注:考第三个实验结果,observation 引导

30. According to Papousek, the pleasure babies get in achieving something is a reflection of _______.

A)a basic human desire to understand and control the world

注:考最后一段,最后一句的同义改写

A) location of echoes

B) ability to determine where an echo comes from

C) scientific term for sound waves

D)ability to locate unseen objects by echoes

To appreciate the precision of the bats' echo location, we must first consider the degree of their reliance upon it. Thanks to sonar, an insect-eating bat can get along perfectly well without eyesight. This was brilliantly demonstrated by the Italian naturalist Lazzaro Spallanzani. He caught some bats in a bell tower, blinded them. and released them outdoors. Four of these blind bats were recaptured after they had found their ways back to the bell tower, and on examining their stomachs' contents, Spallanxani found that they had been able to capture and eat flying insects. We know from experiments that bats easily find insects in the dark of night, even when the insects make no sound that can be heard by human ears. A bat will catch hundreds of softbodied silent flying insects in a single hour. It will even detect and chase pebbles (卵石) tossed (向上扔)into the air.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claim for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单), or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.

注:1.present v. 提交 2.主题句后将介绍其他不同投诉的方法

A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer' s favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.

注:the more...the more... 比较结构,可以跟32题联系在一起。

(到此处,文章后面的题目中有4道题已经可以定位了。31题、32题、34题和35题)

Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.

Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, "The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear" is better than "This stereo(立体声音响)does not work."

注:1.firmly 坚决的 2.demonstrate 证明、证实

3.specific 具体的,详细的

4.as to = about

The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.

Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe (衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.

They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.

Question 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?

注:1.第一段中间出现however, 末句为主题句 2.popular belief 普遍观点,负态度

3.ignor 忽略= neglect = overlook, 区别是:ignor (故意) overlook ( 忽略)

4.give A priority over B 给A优先权

5.confidently 自信的

If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.

注:1.focal 关注的,名词为focus 焦点 2.adventurous 冒险的

3.content 内容,contend 包含

C) students will have more confidence in writing D) students will learn to be independent of teachers

注:文章第二段,B,D 选项文章未提到,可排除。定位此段末句,选择A项

I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible (难以辨认的)." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation (动力) to seek improvement.

注:1.shock 震惊 2.omit 省略

3.作者对作文评语的负评价,but 及虚拟语气可以表明作者的态度。

24. The writer seems to think that the teacher's judgement on that sensitive piece of writing is ____________.

There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill.

There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?

A breakthrough(突破) in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC's research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC's scientific laboratories at Ispra near Milan.

注:1.provision 提供,来自provide 2.modest 少量的,谦虚的 3.according to 之前是重点

The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community's solar energy program, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three percent of the Community's energy requirements even after the year 2,000. But he said that with a modest increase in the present sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.

D) only 3% of the EEC's needs even after the year 2000

注:定位在文章第二段。

Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three percent of the EEC's needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community's future energy needs.

注:1.bill 花费,请客的几种说法:It's on me/It's my treat/Let me have the bill

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

A rapid means of long-distance transportation became a necessity for the United States as settlement (新拓居地) spread ever farther westward. The early trains were impractical curiosities, and for a long time the railroad companies met with troublesome mechanical problems. The most serious ones were the construction of rails able to bear the load, and the development of a safe, effective stopping system. Once these were solved, the railroad was established as the best means of land transportation. By 1860 there were thousands of miles of railroads crossing the eastern mountain ranges and reaching westward to the Mississippi. There were also regional southern and western lines.

注:1.首句提出问题,后跟着解决方案。

The Government helped the railroads generously with money and land. Actual work on this project began four years later. The Central Pacific Company, starting from California, used Chinese labor, while the Union Pacific employed crews of Irish laborers. The two groups worked at remarkable speed, each trying to cover a greater distance than the other. In 1869they met at a place called Promontory in what is now the state of Utah.

A) different people have different styles of clothes B) ready-made clothes may need alterations

C) statuses come ready made just like clothes D)our choice of statuses is limited

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:

Statuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we "fit" in society. As we go about our everyday lives, we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman, whether the unfamiliar person on our property is a thief or a meter reader, and so on.

注:1.首句主题句 2.fit 加了引号,意义有所改变 3.property 财产,尤指房产

The statuses we assume often vary with the people we encounter, and change throughout life. Most of us can, at very high speed, assume the statuses that various situations require. Much of social interaction consists of identifying and selecting among appropriate statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fit our actions to those of other people based on a constant mental process of appraisal and interpretation. Although some of us find the task more difficult than others, most of us perform it rather effortlessly.

53. The word "appraisal" (Line 5, Para. 2) most probably means "___________".

A) involvement B) appreciation C)assessment D) presentation

注:词汇题。一种心理活动,A 涉及,B 感激,C 评价,D 成交,故排除非心理活动A项和D项,采用代入法可排除B项

54. In the last sentence of the second paragraph, the pronoun "it" refers to "_________".

A)fitting our actions to those of other people appropriately B) identification of other people's statuses

C) selecting one's own statuses D) constant mental process

注:指代题。二段末句中的前半句中的the task,而task又指代的是前边一句中提到的内容

A status has been compared to ready-made clothes. Within certain limits, the buyer can choose style and fabric. But an American is not free to choose the costume (服装) of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among the clothing presented by our society. Furthermore, our choice is limited to a size that will fit, as well as by our pocketbook (钱包). Having made a choice within these limits we can have certain alterations made, but apart from minor adjustments, we tend to be limited to what the stores have on their racks. Statues too come ready made, and the range of choice among them is limited.

注:1.四级文章比喻、类比相当于举例。举例常为细节,服务于结论,速读

2.rack 衣架

51. In the first paragraph, the writer tells us that statuses can help us _________.

A) determine whether a person is fit for a certain job

B) behave appropriately in relation to other people

C) protect ourselves in unfamiliar situations

D) make friends with other people

注:1.重点第一句和第二句,第一句话说明身份地位的功能:使我们对他人的言谈举止恰如其分

2.首句中的get along with是指与某人相处,get well along with 和睦相处

3.A项中的fit 与文中的fit意思不同

Statuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we "fit" in society. As we go about our everyday lives, we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman, whether the unfamiliar person on our property is a thief or a meter reader, and so on.

一.考研阅读的基本解题思路:(四步走) 第一,扫描提干,划关键项。 第二,通读全文,抓住中心。 1. 通读全文,抓两个重点: ①首段(中心句、核心概念常在第一段,常在首段出题); ②其他各段的段首和段尾句。(其他部分略读,有重点的读) 2. 抓住中心,用一分半时间思考3个问题: ①文章叙述的主要内容是什么? ②文章中有无提到核心概念? ③作者的大致态度是什么? 第三,仔细审题,返回原文。(仔细看题干,把每道题和原文的某处建立联系,挂起钩)定位原则: ①通常是由题干出发,使用寻找关键词定位原则。(关键词:大写字母、地名、时间、数字等) ②自然段定位原则。出题的顺序与行文的顺序是基本一致的,一般每段对应一题。 ★要树立定位意识,每一题、每一选项都要回到原文中某一处定位。 第四,重叠选项,得出答案。(重叠原文=对照原文) 1. 通过题干返回原文:判断四个选项,抓住选项中的关键词,把选项定位到原文的某处比较,重叠选项, 选出答案。 2.作题练习要求:要有选一个答案的理由和其余三个不选的理由 二.阅读理解的解题技巧 1. 例证题: ①例证题的标记。当题干中出现example, case, illustrate, illustration, exemplify 时。 ②返回原文,找出该例证所在的位置,既给该例子定位。 ③搜索该例证周围的区域,90%向上,10%向下,找出该例证支持的观点。例子周围具有概括抽象性的表达通常就是它的论点。 注意:举例的目的是为了支持论点或是为了说明主题句。举例后马上问这个例子说明了什么问题?不能用例子中的话来回答这个问题。 ④找出该论点,并与四个选项比较,得出选项中与该论点最一致的答案。 ⑤例证题错误答案设计的干扰特征经常是:就事论事。 即用例子中的某一内容拉出来让你去选。(╳) 要求:在阅读中,遇到长的例子,立即给这个例子定位,即找出起始点,从哪开始到哪结束。 2. 指代题: ①返回原文,找出出题的指代词。 ②向上搜索,找最近的名词、名词性短语或句子(先从最近点开始找,找不到再找次近的,一般答案不 会离得太远)。 ③将找到的词、词组或句子的意思代入替换该指代词,看其意思是否通顺。 ④将找到的词、词组或句子与四个选项进行比较,找出最佳答案。 3. 词汇题:“搜索代入”法 ①返回原文,找出该词汇出现的地方。 ②确定该词汇的词性 ③从上下文(词汇的前后几句)中找到与所给词汇具有相同词性的词(如一下子找不到就再往上往下找),代入所给词汇在文章中的位置(将之替换)看语义是否合适 ④找出选项中与代替词意思相同或相近的选相,即答案 注意:a.如果该词汇是简单词汇,则其字面意思必然不是正确答案。 b.考研阅读不是考察字认识不认识,而是考察是否能根据上下文作出正确的判断。 c.词汇题的正确答案经常蕴藏在原文该词汇出现的附近。注意不能靠单词词义直接往下推。 d.寻找时要注意同位语、特殊标点(比如分号,分号前后两句话的逻辑关系不是形式上的并列就是语 义上的并列,也就是两句话的意思相同,所以可用其中一句话的意思来推测另一句话的意思从而推出所给词汇含义)、定语从句、前后缀,特别要注意寻找时的同性原则。比如:让猜一个名词词组(动词词组)的意思,我们就向上向下搜索名词词组(动词词组)。 ▲隐蔽型词汇题:题干与原文的某句完全重合,只有一两个词被替换掉。隐蔽型词汇题的做法跟词汇题

新东方四级词汇笔记(非常完整版)第4课

新东方四级词汇笔记(非常完整版)第4课 第4课 主谓一致:指的就是给出主语,要求判断谓语动词是用单数还是复数的问题。 一、就近原则: 指句子的主语由两部分单词或短语构成时,由离谓语动词近的那部分主语来决定谓语动词的单复数。 只有当以下单词或短语连接主句的两部分时就近原则才适用: 1. or 或者; 2. either … or … 不是…就是… ,…或… ; 3. neither … nor … 既不…也不…; 4. not only … but also … 不但…而且… ; 5. not … but … 不是…而是… 例如:主语1 or 主语2 谓语动词。此时由主语2决定谓语动词。 10. _C_ either he or his accountants going to claim for the loss? A Are B Where C Is D Does 如果题目改变为:Either he or his accoun tants ___ going … 则应选A 二、句子谓语动词一定用复数的两种情况: 1. 集合名词做主语,集合名词没有复数形式,因为他本身就代表一个复数概念。 常见的几个复合名词:people 人民,人们;police 警察;cattle 牛;poultry 家禽。 2. 表示数量的复数名词+ 不可数名词,整体做主语时 例如:去年出口了八百万顿煤。Eight million tons of coal were exported last year. 三、谓语动词一定用单数的六种情况: 1. 句子的主语是由从句充当的、动词不定式短语作主语、动名词短语作主语; 2. 表示时间、重量、长度、价值四方面的词做主语; 399. -- “How many days?” 0 -- “Did you say that five days _C_ required to complete that work?” A are B were C was D is 3. 表示单数概念的主语,短语,谓语动词,此时谓语动词也用单数; 因为此结构中短语只是对主语提供附加说明情况,所以谓语动词也用单数。 当以下这些标志性的介词或介词短语出现在此结构中时可以不管中间的附加说明情况:with, together with, like, except, besides, in addition to, rather than, as well as 注意:表示复数概念的主语,短语,谓语动词,此时谓语动词应用复数。 4. each, every, either, some, any, no,由以上六个词中任何一个所构成的复合代词作主语时; some经常构成的三个复合代词:something, somebody, someone; no经常构成的三个复合代词:nothing, nobody, no one;either of + 短语; 5. 通常由and连接两部分这种形式做主语谓语动词要用复数,但在以下两种情况下则应用单数; 1> and连接的两部分指的是同一事物; 2> and连接的两部分被no, each, every中任何一个词修饰时; 例如:每位男士和女士都要着装得体。be supposed to do sth. 理应,应该做某事。 Every man and every woman is supposed to dress properly. 11. Many an airplane _B_ in the exhibition. A are shown B has been shown C has shown D show them

英语学习阅读笔记

一.文章的套路结构:(本笔记局限于说明文章,议论文章。) 1. 结论说明型 A.文章开始出现一个结论,后为对他的解释 B.TS(topical sentence即主题句)即为为结论出现支出;注意特别容易的情况是每一段之主题句是该段首句。 C.什么是“判断句”?---通常很重要,判断结论说明型靠判断句,直指主题 a.系表结构:be. remain b.含有作者的态度和评价,注意可能有自由褒贬词 2.新老观点型 A.判断标志: 文章开始不久就出现了老观点,例如: it was traditionally assumed? it was once / usually believed? Many ××believed that? Many ××have argued? It was frequently assumed that? It was universally accepted that? 过去.传统.大家一致公认的观点,都是老观点。 B.TS:陈述新观点的句子。 C.新观点特征: 对同一focus给出不同的解释。 读到老观点的时候,应该停下来想一想,新观点可能是什么样子,从而往下有目的地寻找。 3.现象解释型 A.判断标志:首段给出一个自然的或社会的现象,往往很古怪,下文对其做出解释。 B.可能有多种解释,TS:作者给了正评价的解释。 C.需要注意的是:

a.可能先给出几个错误的(作者持负评价),最后一个才是正确的(正平价)。 b.可能所有解释作者全都不喜欢。 4.问题解决.回答型 A.判断标志: a.手段出现了设问句。 b.首段出现了以下词语:problem difficulty task puzzle 等 B.TS:作者给出正评价的解决方案。 5.其他类的文章 前班部分是以上四种结构之一,后半部分讲了一些与前面无关的内容。 TS在前面,从前面不从后面 二.做题的几条原则 1.先读文章后做题也可以先看题在看文章,建议仔细看全文,才能把握主题不至于上当 2.不能凭印象,或自己的知识背景做题。这点我很有感触,作题不能想当然 2. 做细节题:必须找原文语言重现,正确选项为原文的精确改写。(难大题目用选项中的关键词语,扫描全文,此外在读原文时有意识的记一下 三.平常复习的建议 1.复杂句式――重点训练。推荐王若平的大学难句和考研难句,随便哪本都可以。价格好象是20大元。难句重点训练省略,倒装,复杂从句,等 2. 生词.词组:注意熟词僻义 3. 注意对找主题句绝对敏感; 4.重点把握:A文章结构;B作者态度。 具体作题思维:

新东方四级听力的笔记

英语四级听力解题技巧之“一二三四” 一个中心:A部分以大学校园生活为中心 四级听力的A部分试题中,有很多都直接来自托福(TOEFL)听力A部分,还有部分是托福听力试题改编的。托福考试的目的就是检测非英语国家学生是否到美国接受高等教育的语言能力,其中听力的测试范围主要是大学校园生活(campus life)。通过对87年以来的历年试题的研究可以看出,四级听力A部分大多数试题涉及到大学校园生活。谈话的话题大多涉及大学生活中的各个场景,诸如吃饭、学习、借书、做作业、考试、开车、生病、找工作等等。每一类场景都有特定的词汇和固定谈话思路,我们可以通过选项的一些词汇,推测谈话的话题。带着托福情结的部分四、六级听力试题,答案是很有规律的。 在四级听力中,常见的场景有:(1)作业场景;作业包括assignment,paper,essay,presentation,experiment 等形式,作业一般很多,很难。(2)课程及考试场景;课程(course)一般很难,very challenging,好让有志于赴美读书的各国青年才俊们三思而后行。(3)授课场景;教授的课(含lecture,presentation等)讲的极为枯燥,很难听懂但是学生却对教授评价甚高;(4)考试场景;考试一般很难,女生比男生用功,考的好,还很爱帮助男生上进。(5)放假场景;大家思乡心切,急于回家。(7)打工找工作场景:工作难找,面试要做充分准备。(8)事故场景:学生一般命大,遇到交通事故(甚至飞机坠毁),往往车(包括自行车)毁而人无大碍,受点轻伤或者毫发未伤。(9)看show场景;一般人多票难买。(10)噪音场景;一般是嫌原来的住处too noisy,不利于安心学习。(11)找人一般找不到。(12)教授、医生、学生一般都很忙。(13)飞机、火车一般都晚点。(14)遇事不要着急,要耐心,要等待。 两类选项分析技巧: 一)排除一个选项的技巧,下列选项,可以排除: 1. 所属类别和其他选项相距甚选的选项,例如: (A) The choice of course. (C) An evening course. (B) A day course. (D) Their work. 其中的D选项,明显和其它三个选项属于不同类别,因而对的可能性极小。 2. 所涉及的人物和其他选项不同的选项,例如:1999年1月 A) The arrangement of the Wednesday meeting. B) Where they are going to meet Mr. Johnson. C) The necessity of writing to Mr. Johnson. D) Who is going to contact Mr. Johnson. 其中的A选项,明显和Mr. Johnson.没直接关系, 因而对的可能性极小。 3. 四个选项中,仅有一个选项含有数字或专用名词,则该选项一般不对,例如: A) They are both anxious to try Italian food. B) They are likely to have dinner together. C) The man will treat the woman to dinner tonight. D) The woman refused to have dinner with the man. 其中有且仅有A选项,含有专用名词Italian, 因而对的可能性极小。 又例如: A) Take the GRE test again in 8 weeks. B) Call to check his scores. C) Be patient and wait. D) Inquire when the test scores are released. 其中有且仅有A选项,含有专用名词GRE, 有含有数字,因而对的可能性更小。 4. 四个选项中,仅有一个或者两个选项含有听力中很少涉及的词汇,则该选项一般不对。例如: A) He was kept in hospital for a long time. B) He was slightly injured in a traffic accident. C) He was seriously wounded in a mine explosion. D) He was fined for speeding. C选项含有mine explosion在听力和日常口语中很少涉及,因而对的可能性很小。 5. 内容不合常理、比较荒谬的选项一般不对。例如: A) Most people killed in traffic accidents are heavy drinkers. B) She doesn’t agree with the man.

P教18—2001年真题,第一段:象征含义;第二段:举例(只要举到的完全得分)。 P教17—2000:切勿企图标新立异;1998:历年臭名昭著的一个考题,不用看;1999:要看懂图表,但是有过企图标新立异的惨痛例子; symbolic meaning 3、数量原则:(极其关键) A、段落(提纲)(有几年有要求举例,万不能落,没距离就少了一点,该点的分就没了) B、句子小:6——8句 P1:3——4句 大:12——15句 P2:5——7句 P3:4句 C、字数100——110词常只限10行 200——220词 4、顺序原则:语言→结构→内容(思路) 多变,少错,但求无过,起承转合,忽略不计 5、思维转化原则:互译(写不出的就不写,非写不可的就换简易的) eg:孝敬父母使我们的传统美德?→(承担:under take ) It is our obligation to respect our aging parents .(该句话放在第三段最好) obligate :义务(一个保卫祖国的战士不离开祖国的大门:我不离开gate) 取其精华,去其糟粕?→精华:好的方面;糟粕:坏的东西,负面影响(consequence)等;去:丢弃,放弃(abandon ,throw away)。take the positive aspects,resist the negative consequence 原则:中英互译的必死,不要死扣中文。将中文降到最弱智的解释,英文保证正确。非写不可的的,一定转换思维:eg:乱收费→“乱”:违法,未经学生同意的,过高的,不合理的(unreasonable) 大学扩招→越来越多人上大学;大学扩大了受教育的权利 籍贯→我的家乡是……;加我→让我成为你的朋友(add as your friend) 我绕来绕去也找不到教室→我怎么也找不到教室 你对我很重要→you are my water !!!! 6、语言变化原则:同一意义尽量使用不同方法表达,如 象征含义:symbolic meaning ;subtle 等。

新东方笔记-例子和图表

1997年1月 Directions" For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic Haste Makes Waste. You should write at least 120 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below. 1. 为什么"欲速则不达"? 2. 举例说明。 谚语格言题文章逻辑结构: Paragraph I:(1)点明要阐释的谚语或名言(general); (2)用自己的话解释这一谚语或名言的意思,有时有正反两面的逻辑(specific)。 Paragraph II: (1)作者对该谚语或名言的观点态度,即文章的论点句; (2)支持性的细节分论点,举例子论证(至少两点,有时有正反两面的逻辑); (3)本段总结(可以省略)。 Paragraph III: (1)总结全文,定下结论(通常为阐明其现实或更深远意义)。 Haste Makes Waste By "Haste makes waste" is meant that one should do everything step by step. Even simple operations can easily be spoiled if we rush to complete them, neglecting important stages in the process. One should make full preparations before beginning an task. 注:spoilt=spoiled 被毁坏;Spare the rod, spoil the child. 棍棒出孝子Take English study for example. Without a good command of pronunciation, we can never hope to speak in an understandable way. Similarly, if we do not learn to spell properly and to acquire a basic grasp of grammar, we will never succeed in writing good composition. In short, laying a solid foundation is essential if we want to make achievements in our studies or work, or indeed in any other aspect of our lives. At every step, review what has been achieved and assess the problems ahead before moving to the next step. And remember, Rome was not built in a day. 注:laying a solid foundation 打下坚实的基础 英文学习和体育锻炼作为例子 [讲义P7] Example :
