2018考研英語:閱讀理解精選題目日日
練(08.17)
在考研英語的學(xué)習(xí)中,閱讀理解占到60%的分值(包括閱讀理解A、B、C三部分)。其重要性不言而喻。如何提高閱讀理解得分能力,將是決戰(zhàn)考研英語成敗的關(guān)鍵一環(huán)。而想要有效提升閱讀能力,唯有在實(shí)戰(zhàn)演練中不斷磨礪、體會(huì)并歸納總結(jié)做題的經(jīng)驗(yàn)教訓(xùn),才能有所成效。下面,就跟著都教授每天學(xué)一點(diǎn),每天進(jìn)步一點(diǎn)吧!
Consumers should celebrate that;the firms’losses are their gains.But there is a catch.Comparisonsites, whether for insurance or something else, introduce a new layer of costs,including their own splashy advertising campaigns.In theory, competition in the market for comparison sites ought to keep those costs down.But in a recentpaper, David Ronayne of Warwick University argues that consumers often lose outfrom comparison sites.They earn a commission for each shopper who uses them to buy insurance.That referral cost is incorporated into the price the consumer ends up paying.If the increased costs outweigh the saving the comparison enables, consumers end up worse off.1.Why consumers often lose out from the comparison sites?
(A)The referral cost will be increasedby splashy advertising campaigns.(B)Consumers may not earn the commissionwhen buying the insurance.(C)The new layer of costs may increasethe price of insurance.(D)The insurance company may spend moreon comparison sites.題目解析:
1.Why consumers often lose out from the comparison sites?
(A)The referral cost will be increased by splashy advertising campaigns.referral cost和splashy advertising campaigns之間是沒有關(guān)系的(看譯文你就知道了)
(B)Consumers may not earn the commission when buying the insurance.這個(gè)干擾項(xiàng)就是我從文中隨便找了幾個(gè)詞拼湊在一起的。Commission你都不知道是什么就瞎選!
(C)The new layer of costs may increase the price of insurance.Comparison sites, whether for insurance or something else, introduce a new layer of costs.這句話看的明白吧:新的成本是會(huì)加到保險(xiǎn)價(jià)格上的,羊毛出在羊身上啊!
正確答案C!!)
(D)The insurance company may spend more on comparison sites.保險(xiǎn)公司才沒有花更多呢。

定位其實(shí)兩個(gè)句子都是可以的:
That referral cost is incorporated into the price the consumer ends up paying.Comparison sites, whether for insurance or something else, introduce a new layer of costs.這段話用了兩句話來說同一個(gè)意思。
你確定那一句都是可以得出答案的!
Consumers should celebrate that;the firms’losses are their gains.But there is a catch.Comparison sites, whether for insurance or something else, introduce a new layer of costs, including their own splashy advertising campaigns.In theory, competition in the market for comparison sites ought to keep those costs down.But in a recent paper, David Ronayne of Warwick University argues that consumers often lose out from comparison sites.They earn a commission for each shopper who uses them to buy insurance.That referral cost is incorporated into the price the consumer ends up paying.If the increased costs outweigh the saving the comparison enables, consumers end up worse off.消費(fèi)者應(yīng)該歡呼雀躍,因?yàn)槠髽I(yè)的損失正是他們的獲益。然而這里有一個(gè)陷阱,無論是保險(xiǎn)還是其他產(chǎn)品的比價(jià)網(wǎng)站都引入了新一層的成本,包括這些網(wǎng)站聲勢(shì)浩大的廣告活動(dòng)。理論上,比價(jià)網(wǎng)站之間的市場(chǎng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)應(yīng)當(dāng)可以壓低這類成本。但華威大學(xué)(Warwick University)的戴維?羅內(nèi)因(David Ronayne)最近發(fā)表的論文認(rèn)為,消費(fèi)者往往會(huì)因?yàn)楸葍r(jià)網(wǎng)站而遭受損失。對(duì)于每個(gè)從這些網(wǎng)站購買保險(xiǎn)的顧客,網(wǎng)站都從中賺取傭金。這一轉(zhuǎn)介成本實(shí)際上被加到了產(chǎn)品的價(jià)格之中,最終還是由消費(fèi)者買單。如果這部分增加的成本高于從比價(jià)網(wǎng)站獲得的優(yōu)惠,消費(fèi)者反而將得不償失。
附:長(zhǎng)難句來了
Do animals have rights? This is how the question is usually put.It sounds like a useful,ground-clearing way to start.Actually,it isn't,because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights,which is something the world does not have.詞匯突破:account看法
Put(常用于觀點(diǎn)的表達(dá))
主干識(shí)別:it isn't
其他成分:Actually,狀語
because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights,which is something the world does not have.狀語從句
微觀分析:it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights狀語從句的主句
which is something the world does not have狀語從句中的定語從句
翻譯點(diǎn)撥:當(dāng)翻譯的句子中出現(xiàn)指代的時(shí)候有時(shí)需要往前找到指代的對(duì)象,并翻譯出來,以語義是否通順為標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
it指代前面的句子可以翻譯為:這種說法,isn't后面省略了so或true
這種說法并不對(duì)/情況并不是這樣的。

參考譯文:
(1)這種說法是不對(duì)的,因?yàn)檫@種說法認(rèn)為存在著一種被大家認(rèn)同的關(guān)于人權(quán)的看法,而這種共識(shí)其實(shí)是不存在的。
(2)事實(shí)并非如此,因?yàn)檫@種問法是以人們對(duì)人的權(quán)利有共同的認(rèn)識(shí)為基礎(chǔ)的,而這種共同認(rèn)識(shí)并不存在。
當(dāng)然,英語學(xué)習(xí)絕非一日之功。想要取得一個(gè)漂亮的好成績(jī),更得需要付出持之以恒的努力:多練多總結(jié),才能出成績(jī)。綜上就是小編給大家提供的高分技巧,技巧就是牢固的知識(shí)點(diǎn)和強(qiáng)悍的答題思路,預(yù)祝所有考生2018考研有個(gè)好成績(jī)。凱程教育:
凱程考研成立于2005年,國內(nèi)首家全日制集訓(xùn)機(jī)構(gòu)考研,一直從事高端全日制輔導(dǎo),由李海洋教授、張?chǎng)谓淌凇⒈R營教授、王洋教授、楊武金教授、張釋然教授、索玉柱教授、方浩教授等一批高級(jí)考研教研隊(duì)伍組成,為學(xué)員全程高質(zhì)量授課、答疑、測(cè)試、督導(dǎo)、報(bào)考指導(dǎo)、方法指導(dǎo)、聯(lián)系導(dǎo)師、復(fù)試等全方位的考研服務(wù)。凱程考研的宗旨:讓學(xué)習(xí)成為一種習(xí)慣;
凱程考研的價(jià)值觀口號(hào):凱旋歸來,前程萬里; 信念:讓每個(gè)學(xué)員都有好最好的歸宿;
使命:完善全新的教育模式,做中國最專業(yè)的考研輔導(dǎo)機(jī)構(gòu); 激情:永不言棄,樂觀向上;
敬業(yè):以專業(yè)的態(tài)度做非凡的事業(yè);
服務(wù):以學(xué)員的前途為已任,為學(xué)員提供高效、專業(yè)的服務(wù),團(tuán)隊(duì)合作,為學(xué)員服務(wù),為學(xué)員引路。
如何選擇考研輔導(dǎo)班:
在考研準(zhǔn)備的過程中,會(huì)遇到不少困難,尤其對(duì)于跨專業(yè)考生的專業(yè)課來說,通過報(bào)輔導(dǎo)班來彌補(bǔ)自己復(fù)習(xí)的不足,可以大大提高復(fù)習(xí)效率,節(jié)省復(fù)習(xí)時(shí)間,大家可以通過以下幾個(gè)方面來考察輔導(dǎo)班,或許能幫你找到適合你的輔導(dǎo)班。
師資力量:師資力量是考察輔導(dǎo)班的首要因素,考生可以針對(duì)輔導(dǎo)名師的輔導(dǎo)年限、輔導(dǎo)經(jīng)驗(yàn)、歷年輔導(dǎo)效果、學(xué)員評(píng)價(jià)等因素進(jìn)行綜合評(píng)價(jià),詢問往屆學(xué)長(zhǎng)然后選擇。判斷師資力量關(guān)鍵在于綜合實(shí)力,因?yàn)槿魏我婚T課程,都不是由
一、兩個(gè)教師包到底的,是一批教師配合的結(jié)果。還要深入了解教師的學(xué)術(shù)背景、資料著述成就、輔導(dǎo)成就等。凱程考研名師云集,李海洋、張?chǎng)谓淌凇⒎胶平淌凇⒈R營教授、孫浩教授等一大批名師在凱程授課。而有的機(jī)構(gòu)只是很普通的老師授課,對(duì)知識(shí)點(diǎn)把握和命題方向,欠缺火候。
對(duì)該專業(yè)有輔導(dǎo)歷史:必須對(duì)該專業(yè)深刻理解,才能深入輔導(dǎo)學(xué)員考取該校。在考研輔導(dǎo)班中,從來見過如此輝煌的成績(jī):凱程教育拿下2015五道口金融學(xué)院狀元,考取五道口15人,清華經(jīng)管金融碩士10人,人大金融碩士15個(gè),中財(cái)和貿(mào)大金融碩士合計(jì)20人,北師大教育學(xué)7人,會(huì)計(jì)碩士保錄班考取30人,翻譯碩士接近20人,中傳狀元王園璐、鄭家威都是來自凱程,法學(xué)方面,凱程在人大、北大、貿(mào)大、政法、武漢大學(xué)、公安大學(xué)等院校斬獲多個(gè)法學(xué)和法碩狀元,更多專業(yè)成績(jī)請(qǐng)查看凱程網(wǎng)站。在凱程官方網(wǎng)站的光榮榜,成功學(xué)
凱程考研,為學(xué)員服務(wù),為學(xué)生引路!
員經(jīng)驗(yàn)談視頻特別多,都是凱程戰(zhàn)績(jī)的最好證明。對(duì)于如此高的成績(jī),凱程集訓(xùn)營班主任邢老師說,凱程如此優(yōu)異的成績(jī),是與我們凱程嚴(yán)格的管理,全方位的輔導(dǎo)是分不開的,很多學(xué)生本科都不是名校,某些學(xué)生來自二本三本甚至不知名的院校,還有很多是工作了多年才回來考的,大多數(shù)是跨專業(yè)考研,他們的難度大,競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈,沒有嚴(yán)格的訓(xùn)練和同學(xué)們的刻苦學(xué)習(xí),是很難達(dá)到優(yōu)異的成績(jī)。最好的辦法是直接和凱程老師詳細(xì)溝通一下就清楚了。
建校歷史:機(jī)構(gòu)成立的歷史也是一個(gè)參考因素,歷史越久,積累的人脈資源更多。例如,凱程教育已經(jīng)成立10年(2005年),一直以來專注于考研,成功率一直遙遙領(lǐng)先,同學(xué)們有興趣可以聯(lián)系一下他們?cè)诰€老師或者電話。
有沒有實(shí)體學(xué)校校區(qū):有些機(jī)構(gòu)比較小,就是一個(gè)在寫字樓里上課,自習(xí),這種環(huán)境是不太好的,一個(gè)優(yōu)秀的機(jī)構(gòu)必須是在教學(xué)環(huán)境,大學(xué)校園這樣環(huán)境。凱程有自己的學(xué)習(xí)校區(qū),有吃住學(xué)一體化教學(xué)環(huán)境,獨(dú)立衛(wèi)浴、空調(diào)、暖氣齊全,這也是一個(gè)考研機(jī)構(gòu)實(shí)力的體現(xiàn)。此外,最好還要看一下他們的營業(yè)執(zhí)照。
第二篇:2012考研英語閱讀理解
2012考研英語閱讀理解:讀外刊擴(kuò)大詞匯量
2011年10月24日 11:38來源:萬學(xué)海文
英語二閱讀理解A部分題型為多項(xiàng)選擇題,總共有4篇文章,總長(zhǎng)度為1500詞左右,要求考生閱讀文章并回答每篇文章后面的問題。每篇文章后設(shè)有5個(gè)問題,共20題,每小題2分,總計(jì)40分。對(duì)于中國的英語學(xué)習(xí)者說,不管是英語四、六級(jí),專
四、專八考試,還是考研、考博考試,閱讀始終是一項(xiàng)最為重要的技能,所占的分?jǐn)?shù)比例大,“得閱讀者得天下”,閱讀能力并不僅僅體現(xiàn)在閱讀理解一項(xiàng)當(dāng)中,很大程度上,閱讀理解能力是綜合素質(zhì)的體現(xiàn),閱讀能力也和英語知識(shí)運(yùn)用、新題型、寫作等題型相互關(guān)聯(lián),這樣題型的解決需要通過閱讀獲取相關(guān)的信息,如果閱讀能力不好,這些題型的做題質(zhì)量會(huì)受到大大地影響。
依據(jù)最新的大綱,萬學(xué)海文(微博)英語考研輔導(dǎo)老師們對(duì)閱讀A部分做了一個(gè)詳細(xì)地分析,通過和考研英語一閱讀理解A部分的對(duì)比,我們可以獲知以下的信息,英語二閱讀量減小,英語一是1600詞,英語二是1500,而且沒有說生詞量不超過總共的3%,考查生詞的可能性降到最低,大綱中并沒有提到超綱詞匯,這給了考生一個(gè)定心丸,即不必?fù)?dān)心超綱詞匯。且英語二明確規(guī)定了考察的體裁和題材。題材是經(jīng)濟(jì)、管理、社會(huì)、文化、科普。這方面的題材與專業(yè)碩士的特點(diǎn)休戚相關(guān),且英語一中的八大閱讀能力的要求減為6條。少了“理解文中的概念性含義”和“區(qū)分論點(diǎn)和論據(jù)”這兩個(gè)難度較大的要求,“進(jìn)行有關(guān)的判斷、推理和引申”去掉了引申,而除去的以上兩點(diǎn)對(duì)閱讀有非常高的要求。英語二閱讀部分所要掌握的六大能力是:1,理解文章的要義,2,理解文中的具體信息,3,理解作者的意圖、觀點(diǎn)或態(tài)度,4,進(jìn)行有關(guān)的判斷、推理和引申,5,根據(jù)上下文推測(cè)生詞的詞義,6,理解文章的總體結(jié)構(gòu)以及上下文之間的關(guān)系。
綜上所述,英語二對(duì)閱讀能力的考查大為降低了,明確規(guī)定了所要考查的范圍,考生在復(fù)習(xí)的時(shí)候,可以有的放矢,對(duì)所考查的題型進(jìn)行精心復(fù)習(xí)。2012年在考題的難度上和題型的設(shè)計(jì)上相比2011年很有可能沒有大的改變,這是一個(gè)可喜的消息,還有,萬學(xué)海文英語考研輔導(dǎo)老師們建議2012年的考生在復(fù)習(xí)閱讀題型時(shí),可以讀一些外刊,因?yàn)閾?jù)我們的統(tǒng)計(jì),很多閱讀來源于外刊,比如,經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人,時(shí)代周刊,紐約時(shí)報(bào),讀這樣的文章不但可以使我們擴(kuò)充詞匯量,了解有關(guān)的題材,而且還可以獲取背景知識(shí),藉此,在了解了相關(guān)知識(shí)后,然后輔以適當(dāng)?shù)慕忸}技巧,這樣在答題的時(shí)候一定會(huì)游刃有余。
萬學(xué)海文建議考生在復(fù)習(xí)的時(shí)候,應(yīng)該定期做題,勤于思考,總結(jié)方法,除此外,還要夯實(shí)基礎(chǔ),平時(shí)在做題的過程中,把篇章中一些好的句子(特別是長(zhǎng)難句)、短語、以及一些高頻常考詞匯抄錄下來,日積月累,做題的正確率定會(huì)提高,得高分的可能性就會(huì)增大,考取理想院校就會(huì)
