《英美文学选》学习方法首先我想与大家谈论一下参考书，我看见网上有人询问是否有 什么好的参考书。我总共买了二本参考书，用处不大，浪费时间不少。只有把课本彻底看透， 你才能掌握主要脉络。仔细对照，你可以看出参考书上无非也是从书上copy过来，只能让你 看一遍参考书，又看一遍书本。我能理解大家想偷机取巧的想法，参考书必定是比课本薄得 多，看上去象精选集，但事实并非如此，实际考题说明一切。考题不会超大纲，答案自然都 在书上。只不过来年考题会从越来越偏僻角落去选择，所以课本也就越发重要。我现在都能 想象出题老师得意笑容，我出的题难什么，都在书上。 当我看完第一遍书时，其过程实在是艰涩痛苦，捏着厚厚书真觉得苦海无涯，望也望不 到出头之日。但奇妙的感觉在后面，当我第二，三，四遍看完，当然到后面是以翻看形式了， 书本捏在手上变得越来越薄了。我认为以课本为基础，在自己脑海中形成的超薄精选集才是 正直实用有效的参考书，在网上是下载不到，书店里也买不到。你所需要做的是把这课本看 懂，读透，翻烂。i dont want to say this is only choice, but it actually is, and an most direct and efficient way. don’t find too much resources, which cant easy your job, but increase your burden. 我看见许多人说背不出，或怎样背。大家都是这条路上过来的难兄难弟，多半白天要上 班，晚上要背书，有段时间我近似绝望，怀疑自己提早进入老年痴呆症，健忘症。我不断弄 混名字，作品，时期，英美不分。就现在考题看来，题型已不是单纯浅显记忆题，而是在此 基础上的综合理解题，在今年的部分选择题，简答题里都是这样。如果不掌握最基本的（纯 粹背的），pass是绝无希望。 我的方法是建立一个树枝结构。复习开始时面对的最大困惑是东西太多，无从下手，而 且更糟是前背后忘记，忘得比背得快，简直是没天理，花下去的时间精力似乎打了水漂。当 然要让每个作家都能象对shakespeare一样一听就有个大概印象，没有充足广泛阅读量是无 法做 英美文学是综合学科，要通过或考好，是需要日常对英美历史背景熟悉，对大量着作的 阅读，研究体会的。死记硬背真的只是应付考试的，原始而无意义手段，而且对来年的考题 是没办法应付的噢！ 以下还有一些小窍门，希望有帮助： 1.先复习美国文学，后英国文学； 2.美国文学可先从现实主义阶段开始，英国文学可先从维多利亚阶段开始； 3.去年考过题还会再考； 4.诗中解释较多的话，找那些能反映主题的解释多背背；明年多半是课本没有的解释了， 考你的对诗理解程度了， 5.对各阶段时期特征多花功夫复习； 6.明年的理解题，综合题，比较题必然多，例如： 1).二个阶段思想，风格比较，举例说明； 2).描述一个阶段思想，风格特点，举例说明； 3).比较二个同一，不同阶段诗人，剧作家，小说家，举其作品说明； 4).详细说明一个术语，一种写作方式，风格，主义如何运用，举代表人物，作品说明， （eg, this year question: what is allegory concerned with its implying meaning?) 刁钻复杂的题人人都可猜，我并非想例出一点希奇古怪的题扰乱你们的思路。这次四月 考试，我是充满信心拿高分，对每位作家或诗人我都仔细复习到了，但题目仍是出乎我意料 之外，我觉得不公平是题型已不是去年直白而水平的出题方式，是一种纵向综合题型。我想 提醒明年要参加考试的同学，决不要把每个作家或时期独立复习，如果可能的话，在对每位 作家或时期有一定熟悉的程度，作一点纵向的比较，不但能加深理解，对你们明年考试决对
