阅读文章的结构
了解文章的结构，能够让我们在阅读时更迅速地把握文章的脉络和文章主旨，对于提高做题效率更有重要意义。文章的结构模式大体上分为四类。这四类文章在一篇文章中并不是独立存在的，有时往往是几种段落结构模式交织在一起。
总分型这类文章遵循从观点到材料，从抽象到具体的逻辑法则，其基本框架是先总论后分论，中心论点出现在分论之前。
问题解决型首先说明情况和背景，然后提出问题，接着作出反应，也就是解决问题，当然问题也可能没有解决或没有完全解决，最后给予适当的评价或者分析。总体布局上有时会舍去背景部分或评价部分。
匹配型段落的发展主线为两种事物之间的类比：两种论点概论----一种论点----另一种论点;或者是现象----一种事物----另一种事物----得出结论。作者一般不发表态度和结论。
假设真实型文章结构模式是：假设观点----进行反驳----作者观点。作者往往在文中开头即提出一种观点或主张，然后从赞同与反对两个方面进行反驳或澄清，经过论证之后才提出作者本人的观点。
Passage 6
Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always __1__ such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a
wr iter” and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of __2__ and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”
The reality is that writing is a __3__, private and poorpaying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never __4__. When I left a 20-year career in the US. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer(自由撰稿人), I had no __5__ at all. What I did have was a friend who found
me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was __6__and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a __7__ writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to __8__ myself. It was so hard to sell a story that __9__ made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years.
I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keeo putting my dream to the test--even though it meant living with __10__and fear of failure. This is the Shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream learn to live there.
A) barely B) genuine C) rewarded D) doubt
E) lonely F) poverty G) persuade H) prospects
I) uncertainty J)impossibly K) encourage
L)awarded
M) alone N)wealth O)cold
参考答案及解析:
1.选K)。此处应填动词的原形。可选项有doubt, persuade, encourage, 但由always推知，作者是在鼓励那些想要成为作家的人，而不是怀疑也不是说服，故排除doubt
和persuade而选encourage。
2.选N)。由空格后的fame可知，此处应填名词。可选项有prospects和wealth，但由dreaming of 与第二段中The reality is... poor-paying可推知，那些想当作家的人梦想的是金钱和名誉，而不是前途，故排除prospects 而选wealth。
3.选E)。此处应填形容词，private, poor-paying
一起修饰affair。选项中有lonely和alone,能修饰affair 的只有lonely,alone表示“孤独的”时，通常作表语，故排除alone而选lonely。
4.选C)。此处应填动词的被动形式。可选项有rewarded和awarded,前者可表示“(为所希望的举动得到的)回报”，后者作动词时表示“颁发，授予”，故只有rewarded 符合题意而排除awarded。
5.选H)。此处应填名词。“当我辞别了我在美国海岸警卫队20年工作成为一个自由撰稿人时，没有任何......可言”，可选项有prospects和wealth，但wealth一般指抽象意义上的“金钱”，因此排除wealth而选
prospects“前途”。
6.选O)。it指代的是apartment building，从had no bathroom可知这个公寓条件很差，选项中只有cold能说明公寓的条件差，故选择O)cold。
7.选B)。“我马上买了一台旧的手动打字机，感觉自己就好像是一个......的作家”，由前面提到的to become a freelance writer可推知，此处作者是想成为一个真正的作家，故选项中只有genuine“真正的”符合题意。
8.选D)。由空格前的to可知，此处应填动词的原形。可选项有doubt,persuade,encourage,但由still hadn’t gotten a break”在写作上还没有任何进展”，所以此处应理解为他开始怀疑自己的选择是否正确，故doubt符合文意。
9.选A)。that从句结构完整，后面有made，故此处应填副词。可选项有barely和impossibly，因that引导的从句是对story的解释，再由hard一词可推知，此处应填的副词应表达肯定的意思，故排除impossibly而选
barely“仅仅，刚刚”。
10.选I)。由空格后的and可知，此处应填名词。由fear of failure可知，所填词应表示不好的境遇，可选项有poverty和uncertainty;又由fear可推知，此处强调的是生活的变化无常，而不是生活的贫困，故选uncertainty。
导读：
Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always K)encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cas es these individuals
are dreaming of N)wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter.(these individuals指代的是Many a young people。) “You’ve got to want to write,”I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”
The reality is that writing is a E)lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never C)rewarded.(kissed by fortune意为“受到命运之神的亲睐”，由此可推出第4题应填的词。) When I left a 20-year career in the US. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer(自由撰稿人), I had no H)prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. (What I did... my room in...。这是一个复合句，What引导的是主语从句，who引导的定语从句修饰a friend,由此可看出，作者刚开始从事写作时的艰难。)It didn’t even matter that it was O)cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a B)genuine writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to D)doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that A)barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years.
I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keep putting my dream to the test----even though it meant living with
I)uncertainty and fear of failture.(put... to the test 意为“使.....经受考验”，此处表明了作者态度，即要成为作家必须忍受很多困难。)This is the Shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream learn to live there.
全文翻译：
很多年轻人对我说他们想当作家。我总是鼓励这样的青年，但同时我也向他们说明“当作家”和写作的区别是很大的。在很多情况下，
那些想当作家的人向往的是金钱和名誉，而不是独自守着打字机的漫长日子。我对他们说，“你必须是想写，而不应是想当作家。”
事实上，写作是一件令人寂寞，孤独而且报酬又不高的事情。在每一个受到命运之神青睐的作家背后，还有成百上千的不走运的作家，
这些人的渴望从没有得到过回报。当我辞别了我在美国海岸警卫队20年工作成为一个自由撰稿人时，没有任何前途可言。我只有一个朋友，
他在纽约的一幢公寓里给我找了一个房间。尽管房间很冷而且连洗漱间也没有，不过这都没关系。我马上买了一
台旧的手动打字机，感觉自
己就好像是一个真正的作家了。
然而，大约一年后，我仍然没有任何进展并开始怀疑自己。要卖出一篇暂且可以糊口的作品是如此之难。但我知道我有写作的欲望。这是
我多年以来的梦想。我不会像有些人那样，在临终前还在想，当初如果不放弃该多好啊!我会继续接受考验，即使这意味着变化无常的生活
和对失败的担心。这其实也是梦想实现以前的一种虚幻的境界，每一个有梦想的人都应该学会在这种境遇中生活。

PART I DICTATION （原文） What is a dream for One theory is that we dream to release the deep, secret desires. We do not express these desires in real life because of the rules of polite society. Another theory is that dreams allow us to solve problems that we can?t solve in real life. We go to sleep with a problem and wake up with the solution. This may be a way to use our dreams rather than a purpose of dreaming. If you believe that your dreams are important then analyzing them may help you to focus on the problem and help you to find the solution. The modern image is that dreams are the brain?s way of cleaning up the computer?s hard disk. Dreams organize the events of the day into folders and delete what is not needed. But we all know that very little of what we dream is concerned with what happened to us that day.

（必备）英语四级阅读技巧：如何做阅读理解？ 一、英语四级阅读技巧 1、练习阅读方法，提高阅读速度。传统的三种方法：1）先看文章后作题。是用这种方法应注意三点：1、注意文章中心与作者基本观点，即抓大的放小的。 2、注意重要细节的位置，第一遍阅读时在了解主题之后知道某个东西在哪里，胜过你知道他是什么。 3、阅读速度稍快。不能过分沉迷于原文，速度要快一点。 2）先看问题再读文章要抓对重点适用于文章：1、难度较大的文章2、只包含一两段的流水账文章。流水账文章段落少层次感较差，可以先看题目看清问题，确定大概的位置。3、细节题较多的文章。缺点：对主题把握不够明确。 3）读一层意思做一道题，读文章做题交叉进行。本方法适用于：1、段落较多的文章2、阅读速度较慢的同学。注意事项：1每次阅读一小段或者一长段的一半2阅读速度比第一种阅读方法要稍慢一些，力求弄清本段意思3每次读新的内容之前，最好把接下来要回答的问题要先看一下。每篇文章为9分钟，读原文要5分钟，做题要4分钟注意不良的阅读习惯：1逐词指读正确方法要读意群2出声阅读 2、分析句子结构注意句子的主干，其他可以不看
3、熟悉体型主题（mainmainlyprimaryprimarily中心思想写作目的标题）细节（定位原文关注考试原则）词意（包括指带上下文推断词义词根）推理（细节性推理题infer题型conclude题型）态度（表示态度的首段选项的含义） 4、课外阅读主要是看复旦大学和上海交大的书 5、授课内容与方式对阅读一般性了解，结合一篇文章讲一讲四级的阅读方法细节题的导入3细节题考试原则常考的语言现象5主题方面的总结8难题穿一穿 四级一般的阅读方法和做题方法概括四句话：1扫读题干关键词2浏览原文作标记3比较选项得答案4迅速排除省力气其中核心是浏览原文作标记 可以标记的地方：1指示性的具体信息如时间、人物、数字2与文章结构有关的中心信息包括：主题句转折词（buthoweveryet出现这几个词的时候一般都会考到）其他标记题号考试原则 文章首句出现定义或者概念，通常就是主题 出现转折必会考到 主题在末段的可能性接近于零0 任何主题题型只要选项包含细节就直接错误，不管它有大多伟大按时间顺序阐述的文章主题通常在首末段，尤其是首段 细节题定为原则：细节出现多次，优先考虑首次定位 原文有个词，再在选项中弄一个与其相类似的单词作干扰选项作词义题的方法：根据上下文确定同义或反义的关系
英语四级真题快速阅读题 Small Schools Rising This years list of the top 100 high schools shows that today, those with fewer students are flourishing. Fifty years ago, they were the latest thing in educational reform: big, modern, suburban high schools with students counted in the thousands. As baby boomers(二战后婴儿潮时期出生的人) came of high-school age, big schools promised economic efficiency. A greater choice of courses, and, of course, better football teams. Only years later did we understand the trade-offs this involved: the creation of excessive bureaucracies(官僚机构)，the difficulty of forging personal connections between teachers and students.SAT scores began dropping in 1963;today,on average,30% of students do not complete high school in four years, a figure that rises to 50% in poor urban neighborhoods. While the emphasis on teaching to higher, test-driven standards as set in No Child Left Behind resulted in significantly better performance in elementary(and some middle)schools, high schools for a variety of reasons seemed to have made little progress. Size isnt everything, but it does matter, and the past decade has seen a noticeable countertrend toward smaller schools. This has been due ,in part ,to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has
大学英语-4级水平(4000词汇量)必备学习
美式论文、报告写作技巧 编者按：美式教育的特点即是课程内容强调学生参与及创新运用，因此，报告便成了常见的考核学生学习成果的方式，比如实验报告、学期报告、专题报告、研究报告及论文（含毕业论文）等。研究生presentation 及seminar 的机会更是占很大的比重，有些甚至占学期成绩很大比例。如何完成报告、论文同时得到良好的成绩，是本文提供给有志留学的有心人参考的目的。 美国大学生由於自小已养成自动寻找答案习惯，在启发式的教育环境下，写报告、论文对他们来说比较不陌生，虽然专业知识上美国学生不见得比外籍学生强，但是表达能力由於自小培养，加上英语能力的优势，常比外籍学生在报告、论文方面有较隹的利基。反之中国学生比较缺乏报告写作的训练，因此如果在留学过程中无法适应美式教育会比较辛苦，其实论文、报告的写作要领其实不难，只要把握技巧就可水到渠成。
通常论文由篇首(Preliminaries)，本文(Texts)以及参考资料(References)三部分构成；而这三大部分各自内容如下： (一) 篇首： 封面(Title) 序言(Preface) 谢词(Acknowledge) 提要(Summary) 目录(Tables and Appendixes) (二) 本文： 引言(Introduction) 主体，含篇(Part)、章(Chapter)、节(Section) 、以及注释(Footnotes) (三)参考资料： 参考书目(References or Bibliography) 附录资料(Appendix)。

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions . Hire Advantage At a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult ,employers who can eliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinct advantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots . A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make .

英语四级阅读方法与解题技巧 省时间、高质量的阅读方法是：一次完成法。即只细读一次，边读边作题。阅读完成，作题完毕。 阅读步骤 一如果第一段较短，可读完再看第一道题目，看能否做，如不能做，即问题在第一段中未提及，则 接着往下读，读到能做为止。如果第一段较长，则可读一半或一个层次后，找到中心句，看第一 道题，看能做否，不能，接着读。 二以后几段，先看题后看文章，读一段做一题。如果题目涉及多段，则看完所有相关段落后，做题。 三近年来，阅读文章一般是五段，一段一题，但自去年开始有变，有时一题涉及多段，一段涉及多题。但每段的题目分配比较均匀。此种方法的优点：易于精准定位，节省时间，提高正确率。每 篇文章最重要的就是第一段的第一句，最后一句；每段的第一句和最后一段的最后一句。因为这 些往往是中心句，对于文章的思路，架构，作者的态度，有很强的说明性。 解题技巧 一主旨题： 主旨题一般会放在第一个或最后一个考。如果放在第一个，则看完全文再做。 主旨题一般会涉及文章最中心的东西。应注意看文章的第一段和每段首句进行总结。 正确解的特征：含有文章所涉及的中心词，简明扼要但概括全面。 切记： （1）只反映文章某一细节或某一段落的选项一定不是解 （2）如果文章用了大量的篇幅阐述一个问题或说明一个事物，只在最后用少量的文字提及了一些与前面所论相反的内容或其他与前面所论关系不很紧密的内容，文章的主旨不受后面的影响。 能概括文章主要阐述内容的为解。 二态度题： 态度题一般考作者的态度，有时也考文中某人的态度。态度题最重要的是“看清楚是谁对谁的态度、谁对什么的态度”。作者的态度一般会孕于文章的行文之中，一些形容词、副词都能表现 作者的态度。. seem常表示作者对所论问题的否定、批评态度。only也常表示否定态度。 双重否定表示作者的强烈肯定或强烈否定，所以，此时作者的态度便不太可能是objective（客 观的）了，一般多掺进了作者自己的感情好恶。有时作者也不直接表明态度，会通过举例或引用 他人的话来说明自己的态度。此时应注意：所引、举的例子与作者所论述的观点是否一致，可借 此来判断作者自己的态度。 注：（1）当问作者其所论内容的态度时，如当备选答案中有indifferent（漠不关心的）时，可首先排除，因为如果作者是漠不关心的话，就不会写文章论述了。 （2）一些表态度的词汇： subjective主观的objective客观的 positive肯定 negative 否定的 optimistic乐观的pessimistic悲观的 biased有偏见的partial片面的、偏见的 impartial公平的、无偏见的 puzzling困惑的relevant适当的、中肯的 apprecial欣赏的indignant愤怒的 supportive支持的apprehensive担忧的 三例证题： 例证题考察的是文章的逻辑结构。这样的文章结构一般是“先举例后论点”或“先论点后举例” 切记：遇到问“作者举xx例子的目的”时，有关例子本身的选项一定不是解。正确解的特征：跳 出例子本身，从宏观上概括，全面而合情合理。但有的时候会专门考所引的话的意思，这样的题 就属于例子本身题，可具体问题具体分析。 四引证题： 引证题是指对关于于文章中作者引用别人的话或是名言，或是他人的观点等等而设置的问题。做此类题一定要注意看作者所引用的观点与作者自己的观点是否一致，如果一致，可从整篇文章的 思路推理，如不一致，可从文章的反向考虑。 五细节题： 细节题是每篇文章中最多的一种题型。做此类题的要点是：返回原文，找准出处。
