2017考研复试英语口语考试高频话题深度剖析在考研复试中,英语口语是必须要考的一个部分,任何学校任何专业都不可避免。
既然如此,那我们就早作准备,这样才能有的放矢,等真正面临考题时才能做到“兵来将挡水来土掩”。
那具体该如何做呢?今天老师将以考研复试英语口语中的常考话题film为例,进行深度剖析和解读。
Question 1:What types of films do you like?⑴相关词汇汇总你喜欢什么类型的电影?在正确回答这个问题之前,我们要先对相关词汇进行汇总。
那么,电影都有哪些类型?用英语又该怎么说呢?以上电影类型都是按照内容进行的分类,此外还有一些按其他分类方式进行的分类,如:女生片chick flick;女生类电影girly movie;爱情片romantic love story;大片blockbuster;小电影/低预算电影small movies /low-budget films.⑵参考答案如果你不喜欢大片,而喜欢小电影,那你可以说I’m not totally crazy about blockbuster movies, actually I’m more into small movies. They have better plots and stories into it.Be more into…更喜欢….;plot不仅可以指“阴谋”,还能指“情节”。
这句话的意思就是说“我不喜欢大电影,事实上我更喜欢小电影。
因为它有更好的情节和故事。
”如果你喜欢女生电影,即爱情片的话,你可以说I love girly films, andI can’t have enough of it.Whenever I have some time to kill, I would watch them.我喜欢女生电影,并且总也看不够,只要我需要做点什么事情来消磨时间,我就会去看它。
Kill time 就是“消磨时间”的意思。
2017年考研复试英语笔试题型解析汇总2015考研复试英语笔试题型解析之阅读:从最近的考研各个高校复试来看,高校越来越注重学生对文章的分析能力,并日益突出学生提出自己见解的能力,而这类文章主要以议论文和说明文以及评论的形式出现。
考研英语复试阅读题型多数来自国外英文网站或报纸杂志,如纽约时报,泰晤士报,华盛顿邮报,bbc新闻等。
而文章的题材涉及到各个学科以及生活的方方面面,如常见的有经济学,社会学,历史学,教育学。
面对这些题型,对学生的要求已经不仅仅是了解文章内容的方面,而是通过文章的理解,分析总结得出深层次的结论,这要求学生在提高自己词汇量的同时,要更加注重核心词汇,熟词僻义,词意辨析以及固定搭配的掌握。
因此需要同学们掌握单词的基本记忆法,诸如构词法,近义词法,反义词法等。
并且要强化自己的英语语法,尤其是非谓语动词的分词作后置定语和分词作状语;定语从句中的名词性从句,壮语从句是常考的句型;虚拟语气也是在文章中经常出现的句型,这些既是重点也是难点。
因此在复习过程中要注重以英语的思维去思考英语问题,并且要经常浏览外文报纸和网站,通过大量的阅读来培养自己的语感和思维方式。
并且通过平常的积累,养成用英文写作的习惯。
当面对复试阅读实体的时候便会更加自信,游刃有余。
在考试过程中,要把握命题人的出题思路,而各高校命题人所注重的就是学生对问题的思考能力,这相区别于考研初试的英语阅读测试。
因此在面对阅读的时候,同学们首先要理解全文的主旨,在此基础上将分段落所反映的意思与整个文章主旨相照应。
并结合具体的事实细节对具体问题进行推断,推理并引申出自己的结论。
而在阅读的过程中势必会遇到一些生僻的词汇,对于这些词汇最有效的方法就是通过上下文的语境揣测生僻词汇的大意,并通过文章段落的细节描时来验证所揣测的意思是否正确。
并且在面对发散性的问题时,要勇于开阔自己的思路,追求更深层次的理解和感悟。
所以要做好阅读,需要通过大量的泛读和精读英文评论性的文章,通过模仿评论员分析问题的接入点来逐步形成自己观察问题,分析问题,解决问题的能力,因此当面对这样类型的阅读时,就会驾轻就熟。
2017考研复试英语面试常见问题汇总来源:智阅网考研复试通常包括笔试、专业面试和英语面试三部分,考研英语面试会涉及自我介绍及一些专业问题,遇到这些问题,我们要冷静淡定的解答,下面是我们总结的考研英语面试的一些问题,希望考生们认真研究,借鉴一下。
一、传统面试问题(Sample Traditional Interview Questions)如:What can you tell me about yourself?(关于你自己,你能告诉我些什么?)In high school I was involved in competitive sports and I always tried to improve in each sport I participated in. As a college student, I worked in a clothing store part-time and found that I could sell things easily. The sale was important, but for me, it was even more important to make sure that the customer was satisfied. It was not long before customers came back to the store and specifically asked for me to help them. I'm very competitive and it means a lot to me to be the best.分析:这一问题如果面试没有安排自我介绍的时间的话,这是一个必问的问题。
考官并不希望你大谈你的个人历史。
是在寻找有关你性格、资历、志向和生活动力的线索。
答案译文:在高中我参加各种竞争性体育活动,并一直努力提高各项运动的成绩。
2017考研英语复试之考官问答2017考研成绩及分数线陆续发布,目前2017考研的小伙伴们最关心的无疑是考研复试,大多数复试中都有英语问答这一环节,现就英语复试中考官经常提问的问题以及考生的回答线索和回答范例整理如下,希望可以帮助2017复试的小伙伴儿们顺利备考。
问题一、有关个人爱好1.常见的提问方式:What are your hobbies?How do you spend your weekends?What do you like to do in your spare time?2. 回答线索:What:自己的兴趣爱好是什么Why:为什么喜欢3. 回答范例:范例1I'm crazy about reading. Compared with poetry and autobiographies, I' m more into novels and fictions . Reading on a comfortable sofa in an afternoon with the sun shining brightly is my coziest time.I also love traveling. Traveling fills me with great passion and the inner desire to explore. During the journey, not only can I enjoy great scenery, experience different cultures, but also make new friends.范例2Well, in my spare time, I like playing basketball, for this game could not only refresh my body and my mind, but also enable me to realize the significance of team spirit. Besides, English is my favorite subject. I like to do something relating to English such as listening to English songs, watching English movies or TV programs, or even attending the activities held by some English clubs or instituttions in order to improve my proficiency in English. But I deeply understand there is still much room for improvement in my English, so I will keep working on it.问题二、有关未来计划1. 常见的提问方式:What is your plan in the postgraduate study?Where do you see yourself in ten years’time?2.回答线索:Do not say very rigid goals.3. 回答范例:范例1Q: What is your plan in the postgraduate study? /How do you plan to study for your graduate programme?A: I've already made a plan for my postgraduate study. If luckily I got the admission to this university, I would make good use of the two/three years. You know, the two/three years is very short for an aspirant pursuer for knowledge, so it's necessary to make a good plan both for my academic research and future career. First, I will try my best to grasp the theoretical knowledge and set the solid foundation for my further study. Second, if time permits, I will do some part-time job relevant to my major and in this way I can put the theory into practice. Third, I will apply for a doctor degree if impossible.范例2Q: Where do you see yourself in ten years' time?A: It is really difficult to imagine where I will be in ten years' time.But I really hope that ten years from now on, I will already be happily married, have a cozy home, a stable, challenging and well-paid job in which I can find great interest. I hope to have already made some contribution in the research area and had some several publications. And also, I hope by that time, I will have been a person who knows how to be grateful for what life has blessed me with.问题三:有关大学生活1. 常见的提问方式:How did you enjoy your college life?How are you getting along with your classmates?What did you learn in college?What qualifications have you obtained at university?What impressed you the most at college?2.回答线索:To be positive3. 回答范例:范例1Q: How did you enjoy your college life?A : Generally speaking, my college life was busy and colorful. In my spare time, I took an active part in all kinds of voluntary and practice work. In the meantime, I enriched my experience and met new friends sharingsimilar interests. In addition, I’ve spent quite some time in reading. The works of the great minds are really extraordinary and instructive and through reading I’ve stepped into the unknown but wonderful fields that I’d never thought worthy of my time.范例2Q: What impressed you the most at college?A:I believe the library of my university has impressed me the most. If I want to look for a certain professional book, the library seldom lets me down. The searching system is well developed and finding the book is just a click away. Moreover, the books stored in the library are diverse, covering almost all the subjects. Every time I go to the library, it feels like I’m going on a wonderful journey because I’m convinced that I’ll find some brilliant books there.范例3Q: How are you getting along with your classmates?A:I get along well with my classmates. We live together and study together. When one of us in trouble, the others help him/her without any hesitation. Since we are far away from home, we take care of each other like brothers and sisters. Although sometimes we may have different opinions on something, or we may even quarrel with each other, that doesn’t affect our friendship.以上回答范例仅供大家参考,希望能起到抛砖引玉的作用,所以同学们还是要结合自己的实际情况,先整理出自己的回答内容,之后再进行练习。

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1First two hours, now three hours-this is how far in advance authorities are recommending people show up to catch a domestic flight, at least at some major U.S. airports with increasingly massive security lines.Americans are willing to tolerate time-consuming security procedures in return for increased safety. The crash of Egypt Air Flight 804, which terrorists may have downed over the Mediterranean Sea, provides another tragic reminder of why. But demanding too much of air travelers or providing too little security in return undermines public support for the process. And it should: Wasted time is a drag on Americans' economic and private lives, not to mention infuriating.Last year, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) found in a secret check that undercover investigators were able to sneak weapons---both fake and real-past airport security nearly every time they tried. Enhanced security measures since then, combined with a rise in airline travel due to the improving Chicago's O'Hare International. It is not yet clear how much more effective airline security has become-but the lines are obvious.Part of the issue is that the government did not anticipate the steep increase in airline travel, so the TSA is now rushing to get new screeners on the line. Part of the issue is that airports have only so much room for screening lanes. Another factor may be that more people are trying to overpack their carry-on bags to avoid checked-baggage fees, though the airlines strongly dispute this.There is one step the TSA could take that would not require remodeling airports or rushing to hire: Enroll more people in the PreCheck program. PreCheck is supposed to be a win-win for travelers and the TSA. Passengers who pass a background check are eligible to use expedited screening lanes. This allows the TSA wants to enroll 25 million people in PreCheck.It has not gotten anywhere close to that, and one big reason is sticker shock. Passengers must pay $85 every five years to process their background checks. Since the beginning, this price taghas been PreCheck's fatal flaw. Upcoming reforms might bring the price to a more reasonable level. But Congress should look into doing so directly, by helping to finance PreCheck enrollment or to cut costs in other ways.The TSA cannot continue diverting resources into underused PreCheck lanes while most of the traveling public suffers in unnecessary lines. It is long past time to make the program work.21. the crash of Egypt Air Flight 804 is mentioned to[A] stress the urgency to strengthen security worldwide.[B] highlight the necessity of upgrading major US airports.[C] explain Americans' tolerance of current security checks.[D] emphasis the importance of privacy protection.22. which of the following contributions to long waits at major airport?[A] New restrictions on carry-on bags.[B] The declining efficiency of the TSA.[C] An increase in the number of travelers.[D] Frequent unexpected secret checks.23.The word "expedited" (Line 4, Para.5) is closest in meaning to[A] faster.[B] quieter.[C] wider.[D] cheaper.24. One problem with the PreCheck program is[A] A dramatic reduction of its scale.[B] Its wrongly-directed implementation.[C] The government's reluctance to back it.[D] An unreasonable price for enrollment.25. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?[A] Less Screening for More Safety[B] PreCheck-a Belated Solution[C] Getting Stuck in Security Lines[D] Underused PreCheck LanesText 2"The ancient Hawaiians were astronomers," wrote Queen Liliuokalani, Hawaii's last reigning monarch, in 1897. Star watchers were among the most esteemed members of Hawaiian society. Sadly, all is not well with astronomy in Hawaii today. Protests have erupted over construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope(TMT), a giant observatory that promises to revolutionize humanity's view of the cosmos.At issue is the TMT's planned location on Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano worshiped by some Hawaiians as the piko, that connects the Hawaiian Islands to the heavens. But Mauna Kea isalso home to some of the world's most powerful telescopes. Rested in the Pacific Ocean, Mauna Kea's peak rises above the bulk of our planet's dense atmosphere, where conditions allow telescopes to obtain images of unsurpassed clarity.Opposition to telescopes on Mauna Kea is nothing new. A small but vocal group of Hawaiians and environments have long viewed their presence as disrespect for sacred land and a painful reminder of the occupation of what was once a sovereign nation.Some blame for the current controversy belongs to astronomers. In their eagerness to build bigger telescopes, they forgot that science is the only way of understanding the world. They did not always prioritize the protection of Mauna Kea's fragile ecosystems or its holiness to the island's inhabitants. Hawaiian culture is not a relic of the past; it is a living culture undergoing a renaissance today.Yet science has a cultural history, too, with roots going back to the dawn of civilization. The same curiosity to find what lies beyond the horizon that first brought early Polynesians to Hawaii's shores inspires astronomers today to explore the heavens. Calls to disassemble all telescopes on Mauna Kea or to ban future development there ignore the reality that astronomy and Hawaiian culture both seek to answer big questions about who we are, where we come from and where we are going. Perhaps that is why we explore the starry skies, as if answering a primal calling to know ourselves and our true ancestral homes.The astronomy community is making compromises to change its use of Mauna Kea. The TMT site was chosen to minimize the telescope's visibility around the island and to avoid archaeological and environmental impact. To limit the number of telescopes on Mauna Kea, old ones will be removed at the end of their lifetimes and their sites returned to a natural state. There is no reason why everyone cannot be welcomed on Mauna Kea to embrace their cultural heritage and to study the stars.26.Queen Liliuokalani's remark in Paragraph 1 indicates[A] its conservative view on the historical role of astronomy.[B] the importance of astronomy in ancient Hawaiian society.[C] the regrettable decline of astronomy in ancient times.[D] her appreciation of star watchers' feats in her time.27. Mauna Kea is deemed as an ideal astronomical site due to[A] its geographical features[B] its protective surroundings.[C] its religious implications.[D] its existing infrastructure.28. The construction of the TMT is opposed by some locals partly because[A] it may risk ruining their intellectual life.[B] it reminds them of a humiliating history.[C] their culture will lose a chance of revival.[D] they fear losing control of Mauna Kea.29. It can be inferred from Paragraph 5 that progress in today's astronomy[A] is fulfilling the dreams of ancient Hawaiians.[B] helps spread Hawaiian culture across the world.[C] may uncover the origin of Hawaiian culture.[D] will eventually soften Hawaiians' hostility.30. The author's attitude toward choosing Mauna Kea as the TMT site is one of[A] severe criticism.[B] passive acceptance.[C] slight hesitancy.[D] full approval.Text 3Robert F. Kennedy once said that a country's GDP measures "everything except that which makes life worthwhile." With Britain voting to leave the European Union, and GDP already predicted to slow as a result, it is now a timely moment to assess what he was referring to.The question of GDP and its usefulness has annoyed policymakers for over half a century. Many argue that it is a flawed concept. It measures things that do not matter and misses things that do. By most recent measures, the UK's GDP has been the envy of the Western world, with record low unemployment and high growth figures. If everything was going so well, then why did over 17 million people vote for Brexit, despite the warnings about what it could do to their country's economic prospects?A recent annual study of countries and their ability to convert growth into well-being sheds some light on that question. Across the 163 countries measured, the UK is one of the poorest performers in ensuring that economic growth is translated into meaningful improvements for its citizens. Rather than just focusing on GDP, over 40 different sets of criteria from health, education and civil society engagement have been measured to get a more rounded assessment of how countries are performing.While all of these countries face their own challenges, there are a number of consistent themes. Yes, there has been a budding economic recovery since the 2008 global crash, but in key indicators in areas such as health and education, major economies have continued to decline . Yet this isn't the case with all countries. Some relatively poor European countries have seen huge improvements across measures including civil society, income equality and the environment.This is a lesson that rich countries can learn: When GDP is no longer regarded as the sole measure of a country's success, the world looks very different.So, what Kennedy was referring to was that while GDP has been the most common method for measuring the economic activity of nations, as a measure, it is no longer enough. It does not include important factors such as environmental quality or education outcomes - all things that contribute to a person's sense of well-being.The sharp hit to growth predicted around the world and in the UK, could lead to a decline in the everyday services we depend on for our well-being and for growth. But policymakers who refocus efforts on improving well-being rather than simply worrying about GDP figures could avoid the forecasted doom and may even see progress.31.Robert F. Kennedy is cited because he[A]praised the UK for its GDP.[B]identified GDP with happiness.[C]misinterpreted the role of GDP.[D]had a low opinion of GDP.32.It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that[A]the UK is reluctant to remold its economic pattern.[B]GDP as the measure of success is widely defied in the UK.[C]the UK will contribute less to the world economy.[D]policymakers in the UK are paying less attention to GDP.33.Which of the following is true about the recent annual study?[A]It is sponsored by 163 countries.[B]It excludes GDP as an indicator.[C]Its criteria are questionable.[D]Its results are enlightening.34.In the last two paragraphs, the author suggests that[A]the UK is preparing for an economic boom.[B]high GDP foreshadows an economic decline.[C]it is essential to consider factors beyond GDP.[D]it requires caution to handle economic issues.35.Which of the following is the best title for the text?[A]High GDP But Inadequate Well-being, a UK Lesson[B]GDP Figures, a Window on Global Economic Health[C]Rebort F.Kennedy, a Terminator of GDP[D]Brexit, the UK's Gateway to Well-beingText 4In a rare unanimous ruling, the US Supreme Court has overturned the corruption conviction of a former Virginia governor, Robert McDonnell. But it did so while holding its nose at the ethics of his conduct, which included accepting gifts such as a Rolex watch and a Ferrari automobile from a company seeking access to government.The high court's decision said the judge in Mr. McDonnell's trial failed to tell a jury that it must look only at his "official acts," or the former governor's decisions on "specific" and "unsettled" issues related to his duties.Merely helping a gift-giver gain access to other officials, unless done with clear intent to pressure those officials, is not corruption, the justices found.The court did suggest that accepting favors in return for opening doors is "distasteful" and "nasty." But under anti-bribery laws, proof must be made of concrete benefits, such as approval of a contract or regulation. Simply arranging a meeting, making a phone call, or hosting an event is not an "official act".The court's ruling is legally sound in defining a kind of favoritism that is not criminal. Elected leaders must be allowed to help supporters deal with bureaucratic problems without fear of prosecution for bribery." The basic compact underlying representative government," wrote Chief Justice John Roberts for the court," assumes that public officials will hear from their constituents and act on their concerns."But the ruling reinforces the need for citizens and their elected representatives, not the courts, to ensure equality of access to government. Officials must not be allowed to play favorites in providing information or in arranging meetings simply because an individual or group provides a campaign donation or a personal gift. This type of integrity requires well-enforced laws in government transparency, such as records of official meetings, rules on lobbying, and information about each elected leader's source of wealth.Favoritism in official access can fan public perceptions of corruption. But it is not always corruption. Rather officials must avoid double standards, or different types of access for average people and the wealthy. If connections can be bought, a basic premise of democratic society-that all are equal in treatment by government-is undermined. Good governance rests on an understanding of the inherent worth of each individual.The court's ruling is a step forward in the struggle against both corruption and official favoritism.36. The undermined sentence (Para.1) most probably shows that the court[A] avoided defining the extent of McDonnell's duties.[B] made no compromise in convicting McDonnell.[C] was contemptuous of McDonnell's conduct.[D] refused to comment on McDonnell's ethics.37. According to Paragraph 4, an official act is deemed corruptive only if it involves[A] leaking secrets intentionally.[B] sizable gains in the form of gifts.[C] concrete returns for gift-givers.[D] breaking contracts officially.38. The court's ruling is based on the assumption that public officials are[A] justified in addressing the needs of their constituents.[B] qualified to deal independently with bureaucratic issues.[C] allowed to focus on the concerns of their supporters.[D] exempt from conviction on the charge of favoritism.39. Well-enforced laws in government transparency are needed to[A] awaken the conscience of officials.[B] guarantee fair play in official access.[C] allow for certain kinds of lobbying.[D] inspire hopes in average people.40. The author's attitude toward the court's ruling is[A] sarcastic.[B] tolerant.[C] skeptical.[D] supportivePart BDirections: The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order.

(10 points)[A]The first published sketch, "A Dinner at Poplar Walk" brought tears to Dickens's eyes when he discovered it in the pages of The Monthly Magazine. From then on his sketches, which appeared under the pen name "Boz" in The Evening Chronicle, earned him a modest reputation.[B]The runaway success of The Pickwick Papers, as it is generally known today, secured Dickens's fame. There were Pickwick coats and Pickwick cigars, and the plump, spectacled hero, Samuel Pickwick, became a national figure.[C]Soon after Sketches by Boz appeared, a publishing firm approached Dickens to write a story in monthly installments, as a backdrop for a series of woodcuts by the ten-famous artist Robert Seymour, who had originated the idea for the story. With characteristic confidence, Dickens successfully insisted that Seymour's pictures illustrate his own story instead. After the first installment, Dickens wrote to the artist and asked him to correct a drawing Dickens felt was not faithful enough to his prose. Seymour made the change, went into his backyard, and expressed his displeasure by committing suicide. Dickens and his publishers simply pressed on with a new artist. The comic novel, The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, appeared serially in 1836 and 1837, and was first published in book form in 1837.[D]Charles Dickens is probably the best-known and, to many people, the greatest English novelist of the 19th century. A moralist, satirist, and social reformer. Dickens crafted complex plots and striking characters that capture the panorama of English society.[E]Soon after his father's release from prison, Dickens got a better job as errand boy in law offices. He taught himself shorthand to get an even better job later as a court stenographer and as a reporter in Parliament. At the same time, Dickens, who had a reporter's eye for transcribing the life around him especially anything comic or odd, submitted short sketches to obscure magazines.[F] Dickens was born in Portsmouth, on England's southern coast. His father was a clerk in the British navy pay office -a respectable position, but wish little social status. His paternal grandparents, a steward and a housekeeper possessed even less status, having been servants, and Dickens later concealed their background. Dicken's mother supposedly came from a more respectable family. Yet two years before Dicken's birth, his mother's father was caught stealing and fled to Europe, never to return. The family's increasing poverty forced Dickens out of school at age 12 to work in Warren's Blacking Warehouse, a shoe-polish factory, where the other working boys mocked him as "the young gentleman." His father was then imprisoned for debt. The humiliations of his father's imprisonment and his labor in the blacking factory formed Dicken's greatest wound and became his deepest secret. He could not confide them even to his wife, although they provide the unacknowledged foundation of his fiction.[G] After Pickwick, Dickens plunged into a bleaker world. In Oliver Twist, e traces an orphan's progress from the workhouse to the criminal slums of London. Nicholas Nickleby, his next novel, combines the darkness of Oliver Twist with the sunlight of Pickwick. The popularity of these novels consolidated Dichens' as a nationally and internationally celebrated man of letters.D → 41. → 42. → 43. → 44. → B →45.Part CDirections: Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points) The growth of the use of English as the world`s primary language for international communication has obviously been continuing for several decades.(46) But even as the number of English speakers expands further there are signs that the global predominance of the language may fade within the foreseeable future.Complex international, economic, technological and culture change could start to diminish the leading position of English as the language of the world market, and UK interests which enjoy advantage from the breath of English usage would consequently face new pressures. Those realistic possibilities are highlighted in the study presented by David Graddol(47) His analysis should therefore end any self-contentedness among those who may believe that the global position of English is so stable that the young generation of the United Kingdom do not need additional language capabilities.David Graddol concludes that monoglot English graduates face a bleak economic future as qualified multilingual youngsters from other countries are proving to have a competitive advantage over their British counterparts in global companies and organizations. Alongside that, (48) many countries are introducing English into the primary-school curriculum but British schoolchildren and students do not appear to be gaining greater encouragement to achieve fluency in other languages.If left to themselves, such trends will diminish the relative strength of the English language in international education markets as the demand for educational resources in languages, such as Spanish, Arabic or Mandarin grows and international business process outsourcing in other language such as Japanese, French and German, spreads.(49) The changes identified by David Graddol all present clear and major challenges to UK`s providers of English language teaching to people of other countries and to broader education business sectors. The English language teaching sector directly earns nearly &1.3 billion for the UK in invisible exports and our other education related explores earn up to &10 billion a year more. As the international education market expands, the recent slowdown in the number of international students studying in the main English-speaking countries is likely to continue, especially if there are no effective strategic policies to prevent such slippage.The anticipation of possible shifts in demand provided by this study is significant:(50) It gives a basis to all organization which seek to promote the learning and very different operating environment. That is a necessary and practical approach. In this as in much else, those who wish to influence the future must prepare for it.Section III WritingPart A51.

2017考研备考英语阅读技巧指导之局部情感态度题局部情感态度题在我国的考研备考英语阅读理解试卷中局部情感态度题极为罕见。
在20XX年和20XX年连续两年各考了2题,但是此前并没有这样的题型,而且在20XX的试卷中也没有考到。
这个不能说明这样的题型不重要,相反只能说明局部情感态度题是非常重要的,而且根据往年的得分统计来看,该题型得分非常低。
究其原因是什么?我们先来研究这个几个题目,最后再回答这个问题。
一、局部情感态度题与全文情感态度题的区别两者其实虽然都是情感态度题,但是在本质上他们没有什么共同之处,在全文情感态度题里所有不可能成为正确答案的选项在这里都可以成为正确答案。
而且他们的解题方法没有任何共同之处。
他们唯一的共同点就是都是情感态度题。
二、局部情感态度题的解题步骤(一)根据局部对象或者局部对象的主体找出本题的出题句;(二)在出题句(或称得分句)中寻找含有感情色彩的词语或句子;(三)比较该感情色彩的词语或句子和四个选项,选择一个意思和该词语最为接近的选项;三、局部情感态度题历年真题解析例1、Inrecentyears,railroadshavebeencombiningwitheachother,mergingintosu persystems,causingheightenedconcernsaboutmonopoly.Asrecentlyas19 95,thetopfourrailroadsaccountedforunder70percentofthetotalton-miles movedbyrails.NeGtyear,afteraseriesofmergersiscompleted,justfourrailroa dswillcontrolwellover90percentofallthefreightmovedbymajorrailcarriers.Supportersofthenewsupersystemsarguethatthesemergerswillallowforsu bstantialcostreductionsandbettercoordinatedservice.Anythreatofmonop oly,theyargue,isremovedbyfiercecompetitionfromtrucAs.Butmanyshippe rscomplainthatforheavybulAcommoditiestravelinglongdistances,suchasc oal,chemicals,andgrain,trucAingistoocostlyandtherailroadsthereforehave thembythethroat.Thevastconsolidationwithintherailindustrymeansthatmostshippersareser vedbyonlyonerailcompany.Railroadstypicallychargesuch“captive”shippers20to30percentmorethantheydowhen anotherrailroadiscompetingforthebusiness.Shipperswhofeeltheyarebeingoverchargedhavetherighttoappealtothefe deralgovernment'sSurfaceTransportationBoardforraterelief,buttheproces siseGpensive,timeconsuming,andwillworAonlyintrulyeGtremecases.Railroadsjustifyratediscriminationagainstcaptiveshippersonthegroundst hatinthelongrunitreduceseveryone'scost.Ifrailroadschargedallcustomerst hesameaveragerate,theyargue,shipperswhohavetheoptionofswitchingtot rucAsorotherformsoftransportationwoulddoso,leavingremainingcustom erstoshoulderthecostofAeepinguptheline.It'stheorytowhichmanyeconomistssubscribe,butinpracticeitoftenleavesrailroadsinthepositionofdeterminingwhichcompanieswillflourishandwhich willfail.“Dowereallywantrailroadstobethearbitersofwhowinsandwholosesinthe marA etplace?”as AsMartinBercovici,aWashingtonlawyerwhofrequentlyr epresentsshipper.Manycaptiveshippersalsoworrytheywillsoonbehitwitharoundofhugeratei ncreases.Therailroadindustryasawhole,despiteitsbrighteningfortunes.stilldoesnotearnenoughtocoverthecostofthecapitalitmustinvesttoAeepu pwithitssurgingtraffic.Yetrailroadscontinuetoborrowbillionstoacquireone another,withWallStreetcheeringthemon.Considerthe$10.2billionbidbyNo rfolASouthernandCSGtoacquireConrailthisyear.Conrail'snetrailwayoperatingincomein1996wasjust$427million,lessthanh alfofthecarryingcostsofthetransaction.Who'sgoingtopayfortherestoftheb ill?Manycaptiveshippersfearthattheywill,asNorfolASouthernandCSGincre asetheirgriponthemarAet.52.Whatismanycaptiveshippers'attitudetowardstheconsolidationintherail industry?(20XX)(A)Indifferent.(B)Supportive.(C)Indignant.(D)Apprehensive.【解析】:第一步:根据局部对象或者局部对象的主体找出本题的出题句;根据该题的题干,我们可以依据manycaptiveshippers找到本题目的出题句(得分句)为最后一段的第一句话。

虽然有突破口、也有规律可循,但这并不意味着我们可以一劳永逸、高枕无忧,要知道,想要精通世界上任何一门语言,除非有天生的语言天分,否则偷不得半分懒,只能勤勤恳恳反复练习。
一遍不懂读两遍,默念不行就大声念出来,遇到不认识的单词就查,不懂的句子就静下心来拆分结构。
总之,读书百遍、其义自现,英语学习之路上没有笨蛋,只有懒人。
