雅思阅读方法与技巧

抖落心尘

这篇文章将帮助你训练雅思考试中所有涉及阅读的方法和技巧。这些方法和技巧如下所示：

1． 预测
　　在你仔细阅读一篇文章之前，可以猜想一下你会在文章中读到那些内容。比如一些和文章题目相关的专业知识可以帮助你预测文章中可能包含的内容。看完题目，你可以想一下关于这个题目
你知道多少，不知道多少。或者你可以设想一些看完文章后你能够回答的问题。这些准备可以帮助你更快、更准确的确定文章的主旨。
下面所讲的浏览和扫描可以帮助你预测。

2． 浏览
　　浏览就是将文章快速的读一遍然后找到文章的主旨。文章的下列部分应该值得注意：
（a） 标题
（b） 副标题
（c） 有关作者的细节
（d） 摘要
（e） 介绍性的段落
（f） 每一段的第一、二句话和最后一句话
（g） 结论段落
　　一篇文章不一定含有所有这些部分——可能没有摘要，或者没有副标题——但是通常至少应该有（a），（e），（f）和（g）。关注这些部分可以使你了解文章的主旨，换句话说，对文章有一个总体而非细节的了解。
　　这种阅读方法也称为纵览，它可以被描述为快速的看一本书，一个章节，或一篇文章等，来决定它是否符合你的要求。看一篇文章是否合适，尤其是一本书时，除了上面介绍过的，你还需要注意以下的部分：
（a） 出版物的版本和日期
（b） 内容中的图表
（c） 前言
（d） 序论
（e） 目录

3． 扫描
　　当你扫描一篇文章的时候，也是很快的看，但它和浏览不同，扫描是为了寻找某些特定的词句而不是文章的整体；关注的是细节而非主旨。当你阅读一篇文章时，你可能仅仅想找一个百分数或者某个特定历史时间的发生时间，而不是这篇文章的主旨。扫描可以帮你更有效的找到这些信息。

4． 详细的阅读
　　第二遍和第三遍阅读文章的时候，应该注意次要的主旨和那些支持、解释和发展主旨的细节部分。这也可以说是更加全面的阅读，一个更慢更认真的阅读过程。这一阶段你可以试着猜一下不熟悉的单词的意思。

5． 猜测不认识的单词
　　通常你不太可能认识一篇文章中所有的单词，尤其是在读第一遍的时候。你可以利用上下文和自己所拥有的专业知识来猜测这些单词的意思。在你第一遍阅读文章的时候，最好不要停下来查字典。这会打断你的阅读进程和理解。通常随着阅读的进行，你会理解这些原本不认识的单词和短语。字典将在后面的阶段使用。
　　在利用上下文猜测单词意思的时候，要先参考离该单词最近的内容，再逐渐扩大到更大的范围。最近的内容就是该单词所在的句子，或者是这个句子的前后两个句子。更大的范围包括该段落的其他句子甚至该文章的其他段落。这些内容都可以为你猜测单词提供重要的信息。

6． 把握中心意思
　　你应该练习识别包含在文章中的中心意思。在扫描的过程中你可能已经确认了一些中心意思。在读第二和第三遍的时候，你可以更加全面的理解它们。文章的每个段落都包含一个中心意思，它们往往都涉及到段落的主题。
　　阅读材料所提供的练习会帮助你确定和理解文章的中心意思。判断一篇文章的重要性和是否满足你的需要，理解中心意思是非常重要的，同时你也可以理解文章的结构。

7． 推断
　　有时作者在文章里的表达并不是直接的。换句话说，作者会暗示一些东西并把它留给读者去推断和理解。当作者这样做时，它需要读者有一定的知识面——比如专业或文化方面的知识。推断作者的意图在理解一篇文章的过程中有时是很重要的。

8． 理解文章的结构
文章的结构有很多种，把握这些结构可以帮助你更好的理解文章。比如作者希望着重指出一种情况，讨论一个问题或者计划一个解决方案，往往都会使用特殊的文章结构。或者作者想要比较两种观点，那么就会从两种适用的文章结构种来选择一种。
　　与文章结构有关的另一个特征是作者对时间的运用。如果描写一系列的事件或者一个过程，作者往往会使用时间顺序，事件会在它们发生的时间被叙述。也有一些作者会用其他的方法来叙述这样的一系列事件，比如用过去和现在对比的方法。

9． 确定作者的意图
　　一旦你理解了文章的结构，你会更清楚的理解作者的意图。文章的结构会受到作者意图的影响。作者的意图可能是告知或者劝说，他会根据他的意图来为文章选择一种结构或风格。作者也可能在一篇文章中体现两种意图——告知和劝说，在这种情况下最好确定那种意图是作者的主要意图。

10．评价作者的态度
　　作者在文章中所表现的态度并不一定是中立的或者客观的，尤其是在他们试图说服读者同意他们的意见时。理解作者的态度和文章的主旨或者提供的信息之间的关系就显得尤为重要。这是因为，作者的态度会影响文章中信息的表达方式。你应该着眼于确定作者态度的方法，以及评价作者态度是保持中立还是带有偏见。

雅思作文（TASK 2）主要有哪几种体裁？
　 TASK 2的体裁属于议论文（ARGUMENTATIVE WRTING），通常分为discussion和 argumentation两大类。Discussion要求考生分析某个方面的问题/现象，找出成因并提出相应解决办法，往往以特殊问句形式出题（WH-，HOW）。Argumentation要求考生就某一话题/观点发表自己的见解，阐述自己的观点，力图说服读者；对某观点进行评价，驳斥对方观点等，往往以一般疑问句形式出题。下面所列雅思作文考题分别属于上述两大类：
　　1. Computers can translate all kinds of languages; therefore there is no need for our children to learn foreign languages. Do you agree with this statement? (argumentation)
　　2. Traditional culture can civilise a nation, so people think that the government should subsidize artists, musicians and drama companies. Do you agree or not? (argumentation)

雅思考试准备方法与技巧

　　雅思考试在中国骤然火爆,是近两年的事。有两方面的原因。第一，赴英联邦国家留学，别无选择，必过雅思。第二，由于申请人数激增，加拿大移民局采用雅思考试成绩衡量技术移民类申请者的英文能力，作为免面试的参考依据。雅思考试成绩理想者，极有可能免去面试一关，省去不少麻烦与煎熬。但问题的关键在于，面对对于大部分考生来说仍相当陌生的考试制度，考生应
针对其目前的英文实力，作一客观现实的分析和评估。在此基础上，制定扎实有效的备考计划，才能一战成功，顺利通过雅思。

　　路有多远
　　对于大多数中国学员而言,衡量其英文水平的标准是大学公共英语四/六级考试。但国内的四/六级英语考试命题思路，基本上是借鉴美国的托福考试，以考察英语语言本身为主。更注重语言知识点，而非实际语言运用。顺利通过四，六级，并不意味着能顺利通过雅思。同托福系统相比，雅思考试系统更注重实际语言运用能力。语言是信息的载体，雅思考的是语言之外的信息，这就要求考生不仅要拥有扎实的语言基本功，还要有灵活实际的语言运用能力，能够在高强度的考试压力下，迅速找到并答出正确的信息。而对大学毕业后又工作多年的大部分考生来说，即便在校时曾通过了四/六级考试，多年间，英文知识已折旧无几，现在真正的英文水平，可能不过是一级二级，甚至更低。另外，作为雅思考试主要命题单位之一的澳大利亚高校国际开发署曾言，有计划地准备雅思，一般三个月成绩可提高一分，这可以作为备考雅思的一个参考。它意味着在英文实力不足的情况下，盲目强化训练的做法是有害无益的。
　　备考雅思，首先需要恢复英文本身的功力，然后针对雅思考试的特点，进行系统的专项强化。因此，切实有效的作法是把备考雅思分成两个阶段来完成：实力恢复期和考题强化期。
