『贰』 如何做好高考英语阅读表达题
这种题型与阅读理解相比,既有相同点也存在着区别。其相同点在于两者都是对语篇阅读能力的考查,考生需对文章有较好的理解。区别主要表现在以下三个方
面:1.
阅读理解题目的题型是客观的,而阅读表达的题型则是主观的,这不仅需要考生将文章理解,还需要将自己对文章的理解通过自己的语言表达出来,而且要受到字数
的限制。这就是说阅读理解只是要求学生将文章及题目中的信息理解了,就能作对题目,而阅读表达不仅要求学生理解文章和题目而且要把文章中的信息用自己的语
言表达出来,是一种信息的输出。2. 阅读理解的文章难度较大,片幅较长,生词较多;阅读表达的文章较为简单,生词少。3.
在于阅读理解中的题型是选择题,问题类型及所考查的方式差别很大,所供选择的答案只有一项是正确的;但在阅读表达中,题型和题目的设置是比较固定的,包
括:题目、句子替换、完成句子、个人观点描述(开放式问题)及翻译五种题型,答案往往是不唯一的。
下面就这五种题型的提问方式和解题方法作详细的讲解。
(一). 题目设置
根据以上的题型,其题目共有五个,每小题3分,共15分。其考查形式如下:
(1) What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within ____words.)
(2) Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
(3)
Please fill in the blank in the __ paragraph with proper words or
phrases to complete this sentence. (Please answer within ___ words.)
(4) Which of the _____ do you think is the best/most important for you / sb. else? Why?
Or do you think it is good/bad/better if _________? Why?
(Please answer within ___ words.)
(5) Translate the underlined sentence in the ___ paragraph into Chinese?
(二). 应对方法及技巧
1.了解题目,速读全文,了解大意和主题。
首
先要了解题目所要考查的内容,因为考察内容较为固定,浏览一遍即可,其中主要看题目的第2、3、5小题,抓住重点考查信息。接下来快速阅读(浏览)全文,
的目的是获取主要信息。运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。
完成这一步骤后,可针对每个小题做出解答。
2.对于文章标题的题型,在阅读理解中比较常见。在弄清楚文章的大意后,用简练的一句话或短语概括出文
章的标题即可。对于大多数文章而言,在第一段往往就交待了该文章的中心内容,第一段中的首句或尾句通常会点明该段的中心,因此一般而言,通过归纳第一段的
首尾句便可写出该文章的标题。在答题时,切记要抓住关键词,且不要出现语法错误。
例如:
There are many ways to
self-improvement. Here are some tips for getting rid of a bad habit.
Habits are as we all know some sort of automatic behaviours and most of
us employ habits that are far from good, thus we want to change them.
There are lots of examples; smoking habits, the habit of over-eating,
the habit of forgetting certain things like umbrellas and gloves, the
habit of interrupting other people when they talk etc.
从第二句可知文章标题为:How To Get Rid Of a Bad Habit 或 Tips for Getting Rid of A Bad Habit。
再如:
One
thing Britain is famous for is pubs, and no trip to the UK would be
complete without a visit to one of the thousands of pubs across the
country.
Pubs play an important part in the social structure of the
country. They are places where all ages and social classes mix to talk,
do business, or just spend a couple of quiet hours before heading home
in the evening.
文章第一句便开门见山,点明主题:Pubs in the UK。
3.句子替换的题型是比较简单的,只要
弄明白了所要替换句子的意思,在文章里找到相应的句子即可。这种题型可视为同意句的转换,即英语中常说的“paraphrase”。据笔者的经验,在考试
中此题的得分率是比较高的,满分率在80%以上。在答题时,要求考生在文章中准确找到原句并将其完整的抄写在答题纸所给定的位置上,切不可只是写上第“某
某”个句子(The XX sentence in paragraph XX. )了事,这样是不能得分的!
4. 完成句子题型是以往阅读理解题目中所没有的题型。这种题型要求考生弄明白空缺的句子及其上下文的内容,而且要弄清其间的关系,根据这些关系猜测出空缺处的内容。上下文之间的关系通常有下列几种,这些关系通常通过一些连词表示出来:
A.同位关系(并列关系)
标志词:and, also, likewise, similarly, too, either…or, neither…nor, not…but…, not only…but also…, in the same way, equally, …
B.递进关系
标志词:then; besides; in addition; additionally; what is more; moreover, further, …
C.对比关系(转折关系)
标
志词:but, however, nevertheless, nonetheless, still, in any case,
unfortunately, while, on the contrary, in contrast, by contrast, in
comparison, conversely, on the other hand, …
D.因果关系
标志词:because, since, as, for; now that, so, therefore, thus, hence, accordingly, consequently, as a result, …
E.让步关系:
标志词:although; though; even though; even if; nevertheless; despite; in spite of; …
F.时间关系
标志词:when, while, as, after, before, since, until, as soon as, once, …
G.条件关系:
标
志词:if, suppose (that), supposing (that), unless, in case, so (as) long
as, so far, on condition (that), provided (that), providing
(that),without, …
I. 表示目的(意图)
标志词:to, in order to, so as to, so that, in order that, lest, for fear that, as, …
H.解释与被解释关系
标志词:is, that is, that is to say, means, the meaning is (that) …, …
明确了空缺处与上下句之间的关系,完成句子的问题会迎刃而解了。例如:
The
American Speech-Language-Hearing Association is working with companies
and government officials on setting rules for use of portable music
devices. The group says the best way to protect your hearing is to,
limit listening time and use earphones that block out foreign
noises.
根据横线后面句意及连词“and”;限制听的时间“和”利用可以阻止外部噪音的耳机,可判断前面与后面一致,故应是rece the volume/turn down the player。
再如:
All
beers are served as pints (500 ml) or halves (250ml). To order, you
need to ask for a pint or half, and then name the beer. So, you could
say “_______________.”
前面内容说了所有啤酒都是按品脱或半品脱卖的,然后说叫何种啤酒,“so”后面应该说“A pint of bitter, please. (A half of lager, please.)”
5.个人观点描述(开放式问题)
此
类问题的解答比较容易,考生可根据自己的观点选择较容易回答的点回答。这种题目往往设计两个题目,回答此题时必须回答完整,即怎么问,怎么答。如:要回答
“which … is the … ”,不要只是说“The first/ second
one.”要把句子写完整;回答“why”的问题时最好用上“because”。
6.翻译题目
翻译类题目是对学生综合语言知识理解和运用
的考察,考生不仅要理解英语语句,而且需要将其转译成汉语,因此又是对汉语表达水平的一种检测。中西文化与思维方式存在着很大差异,以致汉英句式结构具有
很大的不同。汉语句子为语义型或意合型,英语句子为语法型或形合型。相比而言,汉语句子标准较宽松,句号的位置也有弹性。因此,汉语中无主语和无动词的句
子很多,而英语句子的主语和动词则不可缺少,且英语多长句和复合句,汉语多短句。因此,英译汉时,翻译要尽求符合汉语表达的习惯,然而很多同学没有注意到
其间差别,翻译出了“英语式的汉语”。再者,有些考生对词汇和短语的掌握不够准确,导致句子的漏译和错译。例如;
The purpose of a
text is to show what you have learned about the subject. It helps you
to remember your newly learned knowledge. The world won’t end if you
don’t get good results once in a while, so don’t be over- worried if it
happens.
考生译:这个世界不会结束如果你在以后不能得到一个好的结果,所以不要担心是否会发生的事。
该译句中是按照英语的语句顺序译的,没有照顾到汉语的习惯。而且句子中出现几处错译。once in a while意为“偶尔”;over- worried为“过分担忧”。
参考译文:如果偶尔一次没有考好,也没什么大不了的,因此,即使发生了,也不要过度担忧。
在翻译时,要适当应用增词、减词、词性转化、语序转化等技巧;英语中的从句(定语从句及名词性从句)和较长的短语往往单独翻译,这样能够将英语长句转化成符合汉语结构的句式。例如:
Regardless
of other health effects of coffee, some evidence suggests that drinking
coffee may protect against type 2 diabetes and colon cancer. But there
is much more evidence of a protective effect from fruits, vegetables and
whole grain than from coffee. So enjoy your coffee as part of a healthy
diet, which includes a wide variety of foods.
此句中有几个难点:一个由which引导的非限定性定语从句和几个固定搭配:part of; healthy diet; a wide variety of,而且enjoy一词考生不易译出。下面是几个考生的译句:
(1) 所以应将咖啡作为一个包括种类丰富的食物的健康饮食的一部分。
(2) 因此把喜欢咖啡列入你的包括丰富多样的食物的合理膳食中去。
(3) 所以把热爱咖啡作为你健康饮食的一部分,它包括食物中的大量营养。
例(1)、(2)将定语从句译入主句中,不符合汉语表达习惯;(3)中虽将从句分译,但“它”指代不明确,且“a wide variety of foods”翻译有误。三个例句都没有准确译出“enjoy”的含义;
参考译文:因此,享受你的咖啡吧,让它作为健康饮食的一部分,当然,健康的饮食包括多种多样的食物。
综上所述,阅读表达是一种测试考生综合英语能力的新题型,面对新题型,考生应该本着“以不变应万变”思想,夯实基础,提高阅读能力和速度,摸清规律,掌握技巧,沉着应对,向15分挑战。
『叁』 英语高考阅读表达答题技巧
高考过去半年了,题型有点模糊了。我尽最大努力给你提出一些建议。
就拿山东的内题型做范例吧。
第一题一般是容概括文章大意或者给文章起题目的。最重要的是要找出来文章的topic sentence,即主题句。最常见的是在文章的首段或末段,也有可能在文章的中间部分。通读文章是找出主题句的关键,可以大体先把文化中那个读一遍,把握出中心思想。
第二题是在文章的某一句抠出一个空,让你根据上下文来补全。这样的题型可以说是比较难的(我就经常跑偏啊),但是有迹可循。上下文是关键,所以要反复研读上下文,读懂意思。此外还有小技巧,如某些固定搭配之类的。
第三题是就文章内容提问。这类题一般答案都能在原文中找到,不难。细心是要注意的地方。
第四题是作者的写作意图之类的。文章的中心思想还是解题的关键。
第五题是开放性题目。只要言之成理即可得分。
说了这么一大堆,希望可以对你的学习起到帮助。(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……
『肆』 如何做高考英语阅读理解推断题
做高考英语阅读理解推断题,我个人的经验,三步:
1.迅速将整篇文章分解,理出文章结构;
2.迅速抓住文章叙述的主题;
3.迅速找出各部分的中心意思,并找出表达中心意思的句子。
做到这3步,基本上这篇文章不用逐字读完就可以答对接下来的题目。
先说一下,英语文章,尤其是用于考试的阅读文章,其结构都有非常明显的典型性,一般结构为主题段,论述段落,总结及结论段,乃至超长的毕业论文也不过是在这个大框架内。
以一篇文章5段为例:
一般第一段为主题段,也就是说,整篇文章要表达的主题一定会出现在这里,你要做的就是迅速把中心句找出来,一般来说,中心句会出现在倒数第2句或第1句,简单一点的文章会在第1句就出现,如果考题出得比较难,也可能需要自己总结,但就算需要自己总结中心句,也一定能在该段落中找出代表中心意思的词;
接下来第二、三、四段,各段将对第一段提出的主题意思进行论述或分步骤分析,也就是说,每个段落都会有进阶的主题,即个各分论点,所以你要做的同样是迅速把它们找出来,位置和方法相同;
最后一段为全文的总结,并会对结论进行进一步的分析,或做推测,或作评论,这也是一个出题点,你要做的就是抓住总结的主旨和对其进一步分析的结论。
当然并不会所有文章都是5段,例如有的主题段落会有2段甚至更多,论点段落可能只有2段或多达4段以上(但一般不超过3段),难一点的文章里每个分论点也可能不止一段,我这里只是以5段为例,解释的是文章的结构,或者说一般构成,通过这个规律可以迅速将文章进行分解,进而掌握各部分的要点。
下面分析一下出题要点,或者说出题规律(如果题不会出得很偏的话),以一篇阅读文5题为例,一般为1个主题、1个分论点、2个细节题、1个结论或对结论的分析、推测。
可见掌握文章主题、分论点及结论分析就可以答对3/5,这是不需要逐字逐句读完全文的,而2个细节题怎么办呢,就需要通过题目提供的信息迅速分析出其所在的分论点,然后回到该分论点段落找到与这题相符的句子,一般如果题出得简单的话会是原句照搬,难一点的话会换个表达方式,再难一点则会绕个圈设个陷阱,这就需要非常小心,一定要舍得多花2秒钟把这句话和前后两句反复阅读,挖出陷阱。这样的话5道题都可以迎刃而解了,这就叫针对性解题。
说一下我的阅读答题习惯吧,一般我第一时间会先看题,并且非常认真的理解每道题的意思,提取有用的信息,虽然一般并不容易只通过问题一下子就找出文章主题,但一定能找到跟主题有关的词和信息,并且至少知道文章是在讨论某个东西还是在叙述某件事,也就是说是议论文、说明文,还是叙述文,然后迅速按上面的三步走,这样带着问题扫读全文,连细节题也可以非常迅速的找出来,最后将问题一一对应,全部解决!
这些就是我一路考到专八的阅读题经验,方法交给你了,接下来就是多多练习,只有多练才能练到炉火纯青的地步,最后做阅读题简直是轻松+愉快!
好了,说了这么多,希望对你有所帮助!

Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri?鄄beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.
At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri?鄄beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.
Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.
61. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.
A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin
C. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice

C. Christian Eijkman’s experiment was successful
D. the Javanese’s disease was caused by a kind of germ
C ★★
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
66. The writer of this passage must be ______.
A. an American B. a Chinese
C. a professor D. a student
67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
68. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.
A. warmly welcomed at the airport
B. offered a ride to his home
C. treated hospitably at his home
D. treated to dinner in a restaurant
69. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A. strict with time B. serious with time
C. careful with time D. willing to spend time
70. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
A. Friendships between Chinese
B. Friendships between Americans
C. Americans’ hospitality
D. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships
D ★★★
The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
“I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can’t even understand a bit of music.”
“I’m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.”
But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.”
I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.
Attitudes are important. Whether they’re positive or negative, they’re rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (责怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.
This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (标准) for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.
71. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. A friend in need is a friend indeed
B. How to make friendship last for ever
C. You are who your friends are
D. Friends are the most important in one’s success
72. The underlined sentence “they’re rubbing off on you” in Paragraph 6 means ______.
A. they’ll push you ahead
B. they’ll influence you
C. they’ll cover your shortcomings
D. they’ll help you achieve your goal
73. The musicians’ words at the beginning are written mainly to show ______.
A. the musicians’ living conditions are quite poor
B. people have poor taste in music
C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing
D. young people have greater chances of succeeding
74. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.
A. improve a lot in making more friends
B. come to the right way of making friends
C. develop a better relationship with your friends
D. arrange the time with your friends properly
75. The passage is mainly written for ______.

Norm Pethrick, a 36-year-old man in Australia’s northern city Darwin, was praised on Thursday for jumping onto a crocodile’s back to save his wife Wendy at Litchfield National Park, a popular tourist spot southwest of Darwin, a local newspaper reported.
Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater.
Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.
Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (伤口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.
“This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.
He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”.
Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (细菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.
56. This passage is most likely to be found in _____.
A. a travel guide B. a newspaper

There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.
61. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Finding a job.

English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.
However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
71. According to the passage ______.
A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things
B. there should be egg in an eggplant
C. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree
D. boxing rings should be round
72. Which of the following is the correct plural?
A. Beeth. B. Geese. C. Meese. D. Tooth.
73. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?
A. A wise man and a wise guy.
B. Overlook and oversee.
C. Quite a lot and quite a few.
D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.
74. The underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “______”.
A. blow B. roll up C. get hurt D. finish
75. Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ______.
A. clever B. crazy C. lazy D. ll

『柒』 高考英语阅读理解解题技巧
我任教英语10多年了,关于英语阅读理解的解题技巧,要抓住两个个重点。
1、词汇方面:词汇是英语学习的基础。
很多学生反映,在阅读过程中觉得有些单词非常面熟,可却不知道是什么意思,所以整篇文章理解起来记忆不知所云,造成阅读障碍。如果考试大纲要求记忆的词汇没有掌握的话,在通篇理解文章时就会困难重重。高效阅读的方法需要训练,是一种眼脑相互协调的高效率学习方法,一般情况下,培养阅读者直接把视觉器官感知的文字符号转换成意义,消除头脑中潜在的发声现象,形成眼脑直映,结合记忆训练,用以提高学习效率。
由于大家平时对快速阅读接触不多,可以通过直接训练,训练大脑和眼睛的协调能力,去年,有学者推荐《精英特全脑速读记忆软件》作为假期学生学习计划中,以为软件练习30个小时就能使阅读速度提高5-10倍左右,学习每天练习1-2个小时,两个星期就能取得很好的效果,普通人300字每分钟左右的阅读速度会达到3000字每分钟的阅读速度,记忆力也相应的快速提升。这个建议得到了中央教科所心理研究室原主任、多年从事脑心理研究的专家朱法良的高度认可,目前我们学习很多班级开展的假期速读速记训练课程,用的就是《精英特全脑速读记忆软件》
2、为了节省时间在做阅读的时候应该切忌:
(1)阅读时不要逐字逐句的翻译,这样会导致阅读速度的降低,要快速阅读整篇文章,把握文章大意。
(2)不要一句话反复阅读,即阅读时碰到一时不理解的句子就一遍一遍地沉浸在阅读那个句子当中,反复琢磨。其实完全没有必要,因为要选对答案并不意味着对原文的每个句子都要读懂,抓住一些重点句子就够了,正确的做法是,以理解整个段落和整篇文章为主,在涵盖出题点的句子上用心捉摸。上文中提到的《精英特速读记忆》,超级速读训练同时就顺带训练了记忆,而超级记忆部分的思维导图对全面阅读文章后,抓出文章脉络和重点有良好的作用。所以建议大家可以尝试着学习一下。
3、如果是正在考试或者正在忙着备考的学生,我建议学习一下《精英特》,能够提高记忆力和学习效率,《精英特速读记忆》也是我们协会认可的。希望你早日进步!
