2、概,本讲内容梗概,:,3.,快速阅读解题步骤,2024/11/27 周三,3,1.,快速阅读题型简介,快速阅读,(,Skimming and Scanning,),是新增题型;,阅读文章单词量一般在,800-1200,字左右,体裁主要是,说明文,,题材涉及人文社科,自然科学等,答题时间为,15,分钟;,文章后面共有,10,道题,包括,7,道正误判断题,和,3,道短句填空题,(on Answer Sheet 1),;,2024/11/27 周三,4,1),总的阅读量在,800-1200,词左右,但不一定是一篇,有可能是长度不等的几篇文章。,2),题目基本按照其考察内容在文章中出现的自然顺序排列,
3、.,题目分布不均匀,有的部分题目集中,有的部分没有出题。,3),文章有大标题,但不一定有小标题,.(,目前的题目都有小标题,),4),文章中有可能出现图表和图片,也可能是网页的模式。,5),会有一部分超纲词汇,但如果不影响答题,有的给出了中文意思,也可能不给出中文意思。,6),题目以细节题为主,在文章中能找到答案,但说法与原文有一定差异,但,意思相同,。,7),样题的答案中,有,3,个,Y,3,个,N,和,1,个,NG,填空题答案基本上都是原文中出现的词,;,根据考试委员会对样卷的说明,两次真题试卷以及对其他考试中快速阅读部分的研究我们可以初步得出以下结论,:,2024/11/27 周三,5,
4、(1),判断题,以文中所给信息为依据,对所给表述做出正确的判断,(,主旨大意和细节事实),Y,(YES)-,判断陈述内容与文中给出的信息相符合,N,(NO)-,判断陈述内容与文中给出信息相矛盾,NG,(NOT GIVEN)-,陈述的内容在文中未提及或找不到依据。,题目使用的是原文的,同义词,、,同义表达法,或是,对原文的简单归纳,或者,题目表达的范畴小于原文范畴,(,即原文内容包含题目,),应判断为,“,Y,”,。,2024/11/27 周三,6,难点分析:,NG and N,题目使用的是原文的反义词、反义表达法、信息与原文相矛盾应判断为,“,N,”,;,是原文未提及的内容、混淆的事实和非事实
5、,(,如愿望、想法等,),应判断为,“,NG,”,。特别需要注意的是,推论题,经常会出现原文未提及的内容或在原文找不到依据的情况。所以推论题特别要小心得出的答案为,“,NG,”,的情况。,主要困难,:,不能准确把握,“,错,”,及,“,未提及,”,这两种判断的区别,往往把错的当作未提及的,而,把未提及的当作错的处理。,2024/11/27 周三,7,“,N,”,和,“,NG,”,最大的区别在于,“,N,”,代表从文章中可以,明确看出,题干陈述是和文章的意见,(,或提供的事实,),相反或相矛盾,的,;,而如果,文章中所给的信息,不能说明题目中的陈述,则称作,NOT GIVEN,。,切记,:,原文
6、是我们答题时的唯一判断依据。不能凭空猜想或借助自己已有的知识。切忌加入读者自己的主观判断。,经验表明,:,1),有绝对词,only,must,all,always,的句子很可能不是,YES,但是具体是,NO,还是,NOT GIVEN,就不一定了需要具体问题具体分析,;,2)NG,通常不会超过个。如果判断超过个,那肯定其中有错;,3),若拿不准某题是否为,N,或,NG,先放在一边,看该题目前后两题的情况,以及其在原文中的答题依据。由于题目是根据文章的顺序出的,所以此题的大体依据肯定在刚才两题的答题依据之间,再来判断,不需额外考虑;,2024/11/27 周三,8,(2),填空题,要求基于对文章局
7、部信息的理解寻找答案,完成句子做这种题时候应该,先读题,读题时首先,确定关键词,,然后判断该空格处应当填的,词的词性,及,整个句子的意思,,缩小目标,带着问题到原文中去寻找答案。,判断一个空格处所填词的词性,主要是由语法知识决定的,介词后要求使用名词或动名词,/,系动词后需要使用形容词或名词作表语,/,情态动词后使用动词原形,/,一些小的限定词如冠词、不定代词等后要求使用名词,/,及物动词后要求使用名词作宾语,三种基本句型,主,+,系动词,+,表语,谓,+,主,+,状,即,There be,句型,主,+,谓,+,宾,+,状,2024/11/27 周三,9,2.,快速阅读答题技巧,如何完成?,大
8、致读完全文再做题目?,先看题目再去文章中寻找答案?,快速阅读方法:,主要包括,略读,(Skimming),和查读,(Scanning),两种。,2024/11/27 周三,10,略读,(Skimming),和查读,(Scanning),1.,略读,(Skimming),又称跳读,(reading and skipping),或浏览,(dancing),是一种非常实用的快速阅 读技能,其,目的是以尽可能快的速度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,例如,:,浏览报纸;书籍的目录,2024/11/27 周三,11,1),以极快的速度阅读大量材料,寻找,字面上或事实上的主要信息和少量
9、的阐述信息,。,2),可以,跳过,某个部分或某些部分,不读,。,3),理解水平可以稍低一些,但也不能太低。,一般阅读的目标 是在保持一般阅读速度的条件下,获得尽可能高的理解水平,通常达到,70%,或,80%,。略读时,“,不需要高度理解,”,平均理解率达,50%,或,60%,就可以了。,4),根据文章的难易程度和要达到的目的,不断灵活地调整阅读速度。,略读有下列四个特点,:,2024/11/27 周三,12,1),要利用印刷细节,(typographical details),如书或文章的,标题、副标题、小标题、斜体词、黑体词、脚注、标点符号,等,对书和文章进行预测略读,(preview sk
10、imming),。预测略读要了解作者的思路、行文方式,(,模式,),以便把握大意、相关细节及其相互关系。,2),以一般阅读速度,(,每分钟,200-250,词,),阅读文章开头的第一、二段,力求抓住文章大意、背景情况、作者的写作风格、口吻或语气等。,3),阅读段落的主题句和结论句,。抓住主题句就掌握了段落大意,然后,略去细节不读,以实现略读速度。,4),注意转折词和序列词,。转折词如,however,moreover,in addition,等,;,序列词如,Firstly,secondly,等。,5),若无需要,不必阅读细节。,略读可以运用下列技巧,:,2024/11/27 周三,13,2.
11、,查读,(Scanning),又称寻读,目的主要是为了从大量的资料中,迅速查找某一项具体事实或某一项特定信息,如数字、时间、人名、地名等。,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略过。在最短的时间内掠过尽可能多的印刷材料,找到所需要的信息。,例如,:,在车站寻找某次,列车的运行时刻,在机场寻找某次,班机的起飞时间,在图书馆查找,书刊的目录,在文献中查找某一,日期、名字、数字或号码,等,都可以运用这种方法。,2024/11/27 周三,14,查读既要求,速度又要求准确性,,带有,明确的目的性,。因此可以把整段整段的文字直接映入大脑不必字字过目,视线在
12、印刷材料上掠过时,一旦发现有关内容,就要稍作停留,将它记住或摘下,;,查读与略读不同。,略读时读者事先对材料一无所知,而,查读则是在读者对材料有所了解的情况下进行的,。,查读的特点,2024/11/27 周三,15,1),利用材料的编排形式,按,字母顺序,排列的,如词典、索引、邮政编码簿、电话号码簿以及其他参考资料等。按,日期和时间排列,的,如电视节目,历史资料。报纸上的体育版面是按比赛类别,(,足球、排球、网球,),排列的等等。,2),利用章节标题和说明,查读时,首先看看,文章标题或章节标题,确定文章是否包含自己所需要的材料,或者哪一部分包含哪些材料,这样可以直接翻到那个部分进行寻找。,查读
13、可运用下列技巧,:,2024/11/27 周三,16,3),抓提示词,读者找到包含所需信息的章节准备查读时,要留心与那个具体信息有关的提示词。,例如在报纸体育运动版上寻找某田径运动员的某项运动成绩,他的国名 就是提示词。在百科全书上寻找纽约市的人口信息,翻到,New York City,那一章后,population,census,inhabitants,等词就是提示词,找到提示词,就可以采用一般阅读速度,获得所需要的信息,。,2024/11/27 周三,17,如何完成,CET Fast Reading,?,做快速阅读题的过程其实就是灵活运用略读和,查读两种快速阅读技巧的过程。在考试过程中,我

15、题,可以先看,每个段落的前两句,,再看,段落的最后一句,。当然在特殊情况下主题句也可能出现在段落中间。,通过识别主题句我们可以快速准确地抓住文章中各个段落的主要意思,从而把握文章的主旨和总体框架,2024/11/27 周三,19,4),较深色或斜体字部分,-,这也可以帮助了解文章内容,;,5),图表,-,文章中有时会带有图表或示意图。有时候看图片比看整段文字更有用。注意图表栏目的文字题目,这些词或短语可用作关键词语。,2024/11/27 周三,20,2.,看问题,在题干中寻找关键词,领会句子的意思,目光快速扫描一遍文后题目,回答主旨题,确定其他题目关键词,大部分题目考的是细节的定位,需要回答
16、的,问题中,总会有些,词或短语与文章中的某些词、短语完全相同,或词义相近或相关,。有了这些关键词,你就可以直接查读到答案的位置,有些部分就不用看了,寻找关键词应,优先考虑专有名词和数字,,因为它们在文章中是极容易找到的。注意有时句中的数字在文章中可能会用文字形式表达,例如,30%,与,thirty percent,。,查找关键词的顺序如下,:,题干主语中的名词 谓语动词(行为动词)宾语部分的名词,2024/11/27 周三,21,利用问句中的,1-3,个关键词,在文章中,确定答案的大概位置,有的放矢地快速通读与答题有关的部分,比较这两部分,是否有同义词,同义短语和同义结构,。如果两部分在这些方
17、面是等价的,就可以确定答案。,在快速阅读考试中,能否准确找出正确答案很在很大程度上取决于,对字句的形式变化的认识能力,,即能否辨认出意义相近或相同但形式上有很大差异的词或短语。,3.,利用关键词,在文章中查找答案,查读,+,略读,2024/11/27 周三,22,有时还需要对蕴含全文观点的段落进行细读,判断作者态度和进行逻辑推理,完成推论题,.,注意题目一般按照自然顺序排列,接下来的题目一般只需继续查读剩余部分,无须再从头查起,;,如问句中可能出现,staff selection,但在文章中可能是,recruitment;,在问句中是,vehicles,在文章中出 现时可能是,cars,tru
18、cks,或者,vans,。因此在阅读过程中应多加比较。如能攻破这一关,就一定能够取得好的考试成绩。,2024/11/27 周三,23,4.,真题分析,标题,-,Protect Your Privacy(,说明文,)-,预测,:,为什么,?,怎么样,?,小标题,-,快速准确地抓住文章的主旨和总体框架,留意一些逻辑关系。如时间前后,容易混乱;因果关系,不容颠倒;比较关系,严格对应;最高级别,要有依据。,一时之间难以判断时,就多划几个词,或者注意整句的意思。只要大部分的划出来了核心,有一个两个模糊,问题不大。要相对仔细读的段落也不必要每句都要读得清清楚楚。,如何阅读长句:以考点为准,抓住主干,202

48、文章的开始段和结束段,因为它们往往是对文章内容的概括。,2024/11/27 周三,35,2),集中注意力,阅读时,以意群为组,我们在阅读过程中常常觉得时间不够用,或者是读完了文章,大部分单词的意思也都知道,却不明白这个句子或整篇文章讲了些什么。这主要是因为不良阅读习惯,如:,因此与读英语文章时应该以,“,意群,”,(,meaningful thought group,)为单位阅读,即将单个的词语按照自然的语法和意义关系组织起来。,“,指读,”,即用手指或笔尖指着文章逐词阅读;,“,回读,”,即在阅读中遇到生词或不熟悉的短语时,返回到句首甚至段首重读;如果遇到长句,常常反复多次;,“,译读,”
49、,,,即在阅读过程中,不断把词,短语,以致句子译成母语来理解。,边看边,读出声音,,边看边用笔指着心里默念逐字阅读等,这些不良的阅读习惯都影响了阅读速度及理解。,2024/11/27 周三,36,Successful improvement of your reading depends upon your eagerness to improve and your willingness to practice.,如果你一个一个词来读这句话,你的视线就要在每个词上都要停留一次,影响阅读速度,如果以意群为单位,即:,Successful improvement of your reading
50、depends upon your eagerness to improve and your willingness to practice.,这样,你的视线是在每个词组上停留,停留次数减少,意义比较连贯,即使你的视线在词组上停留的时间要比在一个单词上停留的时间稍微长一些,但因为意义容易理解,总体时间还是要比前者短,而且阅读质量提高了。词组越长,阅读速度越快:,Successful improvement of your reading depends upon your eagerness to improve and your willingness to practice.,这样阅读的
