英語四六級閱讀技巧
閱讀方法和做題方法概括四句話:
1、掃讀題干關(guān)鍵詞 2、瀏覽原文作標記 3、比較選項得答案 4、迅速排除省力氣 其中核心是瀏覽原文作標記需要標記的地方:
1指示性的具體信息 如時間、人物、數(shù)字 、地點
2與文章結(jié)構(gòu)有關(guān)的中心信息 包括:主題句 轉(zhuǎn)折詞(but however yet出現(xiàn)這幾個詞的時候一般都會考到)
必須知道的技巧:
(一)答案項中有絕對語氣詞的一般不是正確答案項。這些語氣詞有: must, always, never, the most, all, only, have to, any,no, very,completely, none, hardly等。
例(1) One of the great changes brought about by the knowledge society is that _____ .
A.the difference between the employee and the employer has become insignificant.
B.people‘s traditional concepts about work no longer hold true.
C.most people have to take part-time jobs.
D.people have to change their jobs from time to time.
分析:四個選項中,C、D兩項中都含有“have to”,語氣太絕對化,一般被排除。考生在剩下兩項中進行選擇,就大大降低了難度。
例(2)The main idea of this passage is that _____ .
A.better use of green space facilities should be made so as to improve the quality of our life.
B.a(chǎn)ttention must be directed to the improvement of recreative possibilities.
C.the urban environment is providing more recreation activities than it did many years ago.
D.priority must be given to the development of obligatory activities.
分析:B、D兩項中均有must be,語氣太絕對化,故一般被排除。考生結(jié)合短文內(nèi)容在剩下兩項中進行選擇,命中率就極高了。
(二)選項中含有不十分肯定的語氣詞一般是正確答案項。這些語氣詞有: can, could, may, should, usually, might, most,more or less, relatively, be likely to, possible, whether or, not necessarily 等。
例(1)It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes .A.Americans are more ambitious than people in other countries
