英语三级考试阅读技巧

叮嘱的是：

在做阅读题时，在不会做的情况下，建议尝试以下提供的技巧，即使自己做出的阅读题，也可以借鉴这些技巧进行参考。但有一点需要强调，技巧尽管经常有效，但最好不要机械的照搬，自己会做的尽量自己做。只有在不会做或拿不准的情况下充分利用这些技巧。为了使考生充分领悟，我结合历年的真题给演示。可以拿出真题进行核对。之后再运用这些技巧把最近几次考试拿出来做。

阅读，一般来说你得把文章读懂才能做题，但三级考试做题的关键不在于读文章，而在于分析题目。把题目分析好，再结合我后面说的这几条。

如果技巧运用的好，30分的阅读理解一般不会低于22分，加上后面的10分英译汉，一般得分30分以上不是很难指望的事，这样的话整个及格的分数就有了保障。务必把握这点。

考试的难度总的来说要比正常英语考试容易得多，我为什么这样说呢，实际上它在题目设计时就已经充分考虑了这些学生的特点，有意识地从命题上把难度降低了。

从题型本身来讲，比如说第一个，很明显，没有写作。另外，从这几个题来看，比如说阅读，阅读里很少有难以回答的问题，就是那些所谓的绕弯的题就很少，一般来说，根据我们讲的做题技巧、办法，一般来说都能做出。整体说讲，15题里面每年当中难的也就一两个，其他的都可以做出，主要是看懂文章大体意思。这是一个。

阅读部分

步骤一、先通读文章达到两个目的：

第一，对文章容的把握。第二，有印象，看题目找答案时更容易找到答案。

二、看题目要学会识别各种不同题型然后采取不同的应对策略

1. 主旨大意题所占的比例偏多，阅读15道题，每篇文章至少有一个主旨大意题，分布有特点，要么第一题要么第五题，所占比例差不多为三分之一。本次考试预计会占到40%的比例。

主旨大意题又分为两种：这篇文章谈论了点什么；用什么样的题目最合适

解题时要注意两个关键点：第一、一定要把握文章的前两句话，主要信息点也往往会包含在前俩句话中。有时也可能是文章中的最后两句话。做到掐头去尾，尤其是要注重头。

第二、在做题过程中要通读文章，就是先把文章中的大意先了解，做到心中有数。

两者结合在一起，确定文章主旨大意题型就会没问题。

例如: 2012年11月真题第5题关于主旨大意最适合的标题是什么可以从文章的前俩句话中得出。

2. 细节题要确定题目中的关键词然后快速寻找文章中答案的位置。一定要注意题的题号和文章容出现的先后顺序是一致的。

例如2012.11 第三题细节题

3. 正误判断题（是特殊的细节题）千万不要搞错是true还是not true 正误判断题所包含的面比较广，分布比较大，涉及的自然段比较多。

细节题和正误判断题本次考试占百分之四十到五十。

4. 词汇题第一种是词的含义第二种是指代（it that 指代什么容）

找到原文相对应的信息，有的一眼就能看出，有时可以将四个选项都代替一下，看看能否使文章通顺。

总之要先通读文章，获取文章整体意义，不要在细节上下功夫，再确定题目类型，然后采用不同的做题策略。

要注意几点：

一、先做简单有把握的题目，5个题目之间是存有在关系的，先做容易的题目会使自己理解更加清晰，对做难题有帮助性。

二、阅读文章题材没有那么深刻，和日常生活社会相关，尤其是热点问题，具有很强的生活气息和时代感，要注意利用你的背景知识。例如，2010.05 第一题利用常识很容易做出来。

三、把握文章的写作目的：1. 描述一种事实（周围所发生的事情）2. 劝说别人一种道理（做好事，符合道德规）

四、有意识注意题目的长度，最长的题目包含的信息量最多，是答案的可能性也越大。

提醒：本次考试如果不出意外的话，没有推论题，

需要强调：一个基本的前提是英语水平。单靠做题那是不行的，给大家讲

做题技巧只是为了在你原有的基础上提高你，而不会说给你做题技巧你就什么都不会就能把考试通过。那不可能，这个一定要有基础。相信大家在之前一个多月里听了系统强化班和龙老师讲基础性的光盘后，应该有这个基础。

另外一个，应该集中把精力放在前面三部分：阅读；词汇和语法；以及挑错。在复习的时候一定要把重点放在前三项。

阅读，一般来说你得把文章读懂才能做题，但三级考试做题的关键不在于读文章，而在于分析题目。把题目分析好，然后再结合我后面说的这几条。

第一个，三级考试所承载的是阅读文章的容，所以要求你在考试做题时一定要充分利用自己的百科和背景知识。二，这些文章无非就是两个目的，一个目的是教人向善，教人干好事，向正面方向发展。第二，传播知识而不是歪门邪道。为什么这个讲法呢，你在选项里面如果是了基本的伦理道德了常识性的东西，这个选项一般是错的。打个比方说，看这个08年11月份这个卷子，看第二篇文章关于吸烟，看这些题目甚至不用看文章根据常识都能做出题。

比如第6题，All the following cases are on-the-job smoking except

that------.

A.an employer smokes while working in the office

B. a taxi driver smokes while driving the car

C. a worker smokes while working in the workshop

D. a worker smokes while reading in the train

就是说在工作时吸烟，所以的情况除了哪个是在工作时吸烟，那很简单是D 。其他的A一个老板在办公室吸烟，那肯定A是在工作时吸烟。B一个出租车司机

在开车的时候吸烟，C一个工人在车间里吸烟，那都是在工作时吸烟。所以说，这个连文章都不用读。

同样的，7、8、9、10都是一样的，9更可笑，Passive smoking means-----

A.never-smokers take up the habit of smoking unwillingly

B.never-smokers have to put up with the active smokers

C.never-smokers take in smoke released by a lit cigarette

D.never-smokers share an enclosed area with smokers

被动吸烟意味着，那肯定选D。

第10 题，in the second part of the passage, the author suggests banning(禁止)on-the-job smoking so as to------

A.cut down costs of medical care and insurance

B.create a healthy and safe working environment

C.prevent eye-irritation from becoming a big health problem

D.improve the smoking employees’ work efficiency

工作时禁止吸烟它的目的是什么，那很简单，就是B创造一个健康安全的工作环境。就是说一定要充分利用常识。文章读不读谁都知道吸烟怎么样怎么样。这个呢，把问题分析好了后不用看文章都能做出题。

另外，我再讲个例子。09年4月份第5题，它问的是什么呢，最后一段的主旨大意是什么，

The main idea of the last paragraph is that a teenager should----

A.differ from others in as many way as possible

B.become popular with others

C.find his real self

D.rebel against his parent and the popularity wave

说青少年应该怎么样,D说青少年应该rebel against his parent and the popularity wave应该反叛他们的父母，这甚至是违反伦理的，哪有作者教孩子应该和人父母作对的，是不是？通常说和父母沟通但不能和父母作对，这个是违反伦理的。教人向善不可能是这个。再看A. differ from others in as many way as possible就是说要尽可能与众不同，怎么能说尽可能让青少年和别人不一样呢，是不是？事实上这些是违反人的基本常识和规律的。

再看第14个，第14个According to Eijkman, polished rice----

A.was cheaper than unpolished rice

B.was less nourishing(有营养的)than unpolished rice

C.was more nourishing than unpolished rice

D.cured “beri-beri”

他如果懂得polished rice(粳米)他就不可能选A,谁都知道粳米比粗米要贵。类似于这样的东西一定要充分利用自己的常识。这是做题要注意的一点。要充分利用自己的百科和背景知识。

另外，要注意选项的长度。4个选项最长的那个是正确答案现在看来这个比例还是比较大的。不是100%。比如09年，08年的题好多属于这个情况，但也有意外，比如2012年11月的真题就不是这个情况。提到这点，不是让大家糊涂了，只是提醒大家一定不要一开始机械性的套用这些技巧，一定要在你犹豫不决或者不会的情况下考虑。

比如我们讲技巧是让大家认识到，我给你说这个是让你做题的成功可能性更高，而不是完全靠这个就把所有问题解决了。

09年4月的题看下，1、2、6、8、9、14都是最长的选项是正确的。总共15个题占了6个。在选的时候长的这个要先考虑。08年的这个最长的选项是答案所占的比例非常高，占了近50%.

另外，表示极端的，基本上像含有only, no, every这些选项要慎选。再打个比方看着第3题，Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A.There is no popularity that really counts.

B.Many parents think that their children are challenging their authority.

C.It is not necessarily bad for a teenager to disagree with his or her

classmates.

D.Most teenagers are actually doing the same.

一看就是A不对，为什么呢，因为它有no太绝对了。

再看第5个，A. differfrom others in as many way as possible这个也是太极端，一看就是不对的。

再看第8个，According to Paragraph 2, without computer------

A.human activities could not continue

B.there could not be weather forecasting systems

C.many activities would have to change their present form

D.banks would not be able to go on with check clearing

看A. human activities could not continue人类行为不能进行。第二项，there could not be weather forecasting systems将会没有天气预报系统，这也是人的背景知识，表示极端的，为什么呢，没有计算机人就不活动了？没有计算机以前人不照样活动吗？同样，人没有计算机前就没有天气预报吗？D. banks would not be able to go on with check clearing说银行，银行早就有了，计算机才有多长时间的事？这个很容易把它排除了。

再看第9According to the passage, what results from the information of computers?

A.After re-training, all employees in the firm get new jobs.

B. A considerable proportion of people are employed in key posts.

C.The firm keeps all of its original staff members.

D.The decrease in staff members may be balanced by the increase of firm

activitie

其中A After re-training, all employees in the firm get new jobs.和C The firm keeps all of its original staff members.这种表述极端的一般都排除掉。

再看15题，The chemical substance missing from polished rice-----

A.was vitamin B

B.did not affect the chickens

C.was named the Eijkman vitamin

2018成人学士学位英语考试试题 I. Reading comprehension Passage 1 Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger (汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries. With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now s o ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index (巨无霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same m enu i tems: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans. Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many s ee McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, a bomb e xploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) (76)No one claimed responsibility. But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization. 1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE. A. McDonald's was founded in 1948. B. McDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world. C. McDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now. D. McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning. 2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean ____. A. very crowded B. very dean C. existing everywhere D. occurring frequently 3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that ____. A. McDonald’s designs its menu to suit the local people B. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald’s C. the McDonald’s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big Mac D. the low prices McDonald’s bring tens of millions of people through its doors every day 4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's? A. They organized a strike. B. They protested outside a McDonald’s. C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald’s. D. They destroyed a McDonald’s under construction. 5. In ____, an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald’s restaurant in France.

公共英语考试《三级》阅读理解练习(1)

公共英语考试《三级》阅读理解练习(1) "Family" is of course an elastic word. And in different countries it has different meanings. Butwhen British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of "family"in itsnarrow, peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together in their own houseas an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and in-dependent family--hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life. For both man andwoman, marriage means leaving one’s parents and starting one’s own life. The man’s first duty willthen be to his wife, and the wife’s to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financialsupport, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibilityand their alone. Neither the wife’s parents nor the husband’s, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts oruncles, have any right to interfere with them-they are their own masters. Readers of novels likeJane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times, marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girl’s parents, that is, it was the "parents' duty tofind a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement tolead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected andmaintained in the parents' home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in theirgiving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry (嫁妆).

Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that. The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder.

Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss? The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事). Observe and understand your boss’s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5, he may be more likely to help you.

If with the oncoming darkness of the 3rd night you knew that the sun would never rise for you again, how would you spend those 3 precious days? What would you most want to let your gaze rest upon? I, naturally, should want most to see the things which have become dear to me through my years of darkness.

2020年公共英语三级试题：阅读理解(最新)

I heard many parents complaining that their teenage 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 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 (紧握) at one another's hands for reassurance. 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 huddled (聚在一起) 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. It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager 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 teenager who wants to find his or her own path. 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 is the only kind of popularity that really counts. 1.In this passage, the author wants to tell ________. A.teenagers to try to pursue their real selves B.readers to try to be popular with people around C.parents to try to control and guide their children D.people to try to understand and respect each other 2.The author disapproves of rebelling teenagers ________. A.growing away from their parents
