雅思閱讀方法與技巧

抖落心塵

這篇文章將幫助你訓練雅思考試中所有涉及閱讀的方法和技巧。這些方法和技巧如下所示：

1． 預測
　　在你仔細閱讀一篇文章之前，可以猜想一下你會在文章中讀到那些內容。比如一些和文章題目相關的專業知識可以幫助你預測文章中可能包含的內容。看完題目，你可以想一下關于這個題目
你知道多少，不知道多少。或者你可以設想一些看完文章后你能夠回答的問題。這些準備可以幫助你更快、更準確的確定文章的主旨。
下面所講的瀏覽和掃描可以幫助你預測。

2． 瀏覽
　　瀏覽就是將文章快速的讀一遍然后找到文章的主旨。文章的下列部分應該值得注意：
（a） 標題
（b） 副標題
（c） 有關作者的細節
（d） 摘要
（e） 介紹性的段落
（f） 每一段的第一、二句話和最后一句話
（g） 結論段落
　　一篇文章不一定含有所有這些部分——可能沒有摘要，或者沒有副標題——但是通常至少應該有（a），（e），（f）和（g）。關注這些部分可以使你了解文章的主旨，換句話說，對文章有一個總體而非細節的了解。
　　這種閱讀方法也稱為縱覽，它可以被描述為快速的看一本書，一個章節，或一篇文章等，來決定它是否符合你的要求。看一篇文章是否合適，尤其是一本書時，除了上面介紹過的，你還需要注意以下的部分：
（a） 出版物的版本和日期
（b） 內容中的圖表
（c） 前言
（d） 序論
（e） 目錄

3． 掃描
　　當你掃描一篇文章的時候，也是很快的看，但它和瀏覽不同，掃描是為了尋找某些特定的詞句而不是文章的整體；關注的是細節而非主旨。當你閱讀一篇文章時，你可能僅僅想找一個百分數或者某個特定歷史時間的發生時間，而不是這篇文章的主旨。掃描可以幫你更有效的找到這些信息。

4． 詳細的閱讀
　　第二遍和第三遍閱讀文章的時候，應該注意次要的主旨和那些支持、解釋和發展主旨的細節部分。這也可以說是更加全面的閱讀，一個更慢更認真的閱讀過程。這一階段你可以試著猜一下不熟悉的單詞的意思。

5． 猜測不認識的單詞
　　通常你不太可能認識一篇文章中所有的單詞，尤其是在讀第一遍的時候。你可以利用上下文和自己所擁有的專業知識來猜測這些單詞的意思。在你第一遍閱讀文章的時候，最好不要停下來查字典。這會打斷你的閱讀進程和理解。通常隨著閱讀的進行，你會理解這些原本不認識的單詞和短語。字典將在后面的階段使用。
　　在利用上下文猜測單詞意思的時候，要先參考離該單詞最近的內容，再逐漸擴大到更大的范圍。最近的內容就是該單詞所在的句子，或者是這個句子的前后兩個句子。更大的范圍包括該段落的其他句子甚至該文章的其他段落。這些內容都可以為你猜測單詞提供重要的信息。

6． 把握中心意思
　　你應該練習識別包含在文章中的中心意思。在掃描的過程中你可能已經確認了一些中心意思。在讀第二和第三遍的時候，你可以更加全面的理解它們。文章的每個段落都包含一個中心意思，它們往往都涉及到段落的主題。
　　閱讀材料所提供的練習會幫助你確定和理解文章的中心意思。判斷一篇文章的重要性和是否滿足你的需要，理解中心意思是非常重要的，同時你也可以理解文章的結構。

7． 推斷
　　有時作者在文章里的表達并不是直接的。換句話說，作者會暗示一些東西并把它留給讀者去推斷和理解。當作者這樣做時，它需要讀者有一定的知識面——比如專業或文化方面的知識。推斷作者的意圖在理解一篇文章的過程中有時是很重要的。

8． 理解文章的結構
文章的結構有很多種，把握這些結構可以幫助你更好的理解文章。比如作者希望著重指出一種情況，討論一個問題或者計劃一個解決方案，往往都會使用特殊的文章結構。或者作者想要比較兩種觀點，那么就會從兩種適用的文章結構種來選擇一種。
　　與文章結構有關的另一個特征是作者對時間的運用。如果描寫一系列的事件或者一個過程，作者往往會使用時間順序，事件會在它們發生的時間被敘述。也有一些作者會用其他的方法來敘述這樣的一系列事件，比如用過去和現在對比的方法。

9． 確定作者的意圖
　　一旦你理解了文章的結構，你會更清楚的理解作者的意圖。文章的結構會受到作者意圖的影響。作者的意圖可能是告知或者勸說，他會根據他的意圖來為文章選擇一種結構或風格。作者也可能在一篇文章中體現兩種意圖——告知和勸說，在這種情況下最好確定那種意圖是作者的主要意圖。

10．評價作者的態度
　　作者在文章中所表現的態度并不一定是中立的或者客觀的，尤其是在他們試圖說服讀者同意他們的意見時。理解作者的態度和文章的主旨或者提供的信息之間的關系就顯得尤為重要。這是因為，作者的態度會影響文章中信息的表達方式。你應該著眼于確定作者態度的方法，以及評價作者態度是保持中立還是帶有偏見。

雅思作文（TASK 2）主要有哪幾種體裁？
　 TASK 2的體裁屬于議論文（ARGUMENTATIVE WRTING），通常分為discussion和 argumentation兩大類。Discussion要求考生分析某個方面的問題/現象，找出成因并提出相應解決辦法，往往以特殊問句形式出題（WH-，HOW）。Argumentation要求考生就某一話題/觀點發表自己的見解，闡述自己的觀點，力圖說服讀者；對某觀點進行評價，駁斥對方觀點等，往往以一般疑問句形式出題。下面所列雅思作文考題分別屬于上述兩大類：
　　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)

雅思考試準備方法與技巧

　　雅思考試在中國驟然火爆,是近兩年的事。有兩方面的原因。第一，赴英聯邦國家留學，別無選擇，必過雅思。第二，由于申請人數激增，加拿大移民局采用雅思考試成績衡量技術移民類申請者的英文能力，作為免面試的參考依據。雅思考試成績理想者，極有可能免去面試一關，省去不少麻煩與煎熬。但問題的關鍵在于，面對對于大部分考生來說仍相當陌生的考試制度，考生應
針對其目前的英文實力，作一客觀現實的分析和評估。在此基礎上，制定扎實有效的備考計劃，才能一戰成功，順利通過雅思。

　　路有多遠
　　對于大多數中國學員而言,衡量其英文水平的標準是大學公共英語四/六級考試。但國內的四/六級英語考試命題思路，基本上是借鑒美國的托福考試，以考察英語語言本身為主。更注重語言知識點，而非實際語言運用。順利通過四，六級，并不意味著能順利通過雅思。同托福系統相比，雅思考試系統更注重實際語言運用能力。語言是信息的載體，雅思考的是語言之外的信息，這就要求考生不僅要擁有扎實的語言基本功，還要有靈活實際的語言運用能力，能夠在高強度的考試壓力下，迅速找到并答出正確的信息。而對大學畢業后又工作多年的大部分考生來說，即便在校時曾通過了四/六級考試，多年間，英文知識已折舊無幾，現在真正的英文水平，可能不過是一級二級，甚至更低。另外，作為雅思考試主要命題單位之一的澳大利亞高校國際開發署曾言，有計劃地準備雅思，一般三個月成績可提高一分，這可以作為備考雅思的一個參考。它意味著在英文實力不足的情況下，盲目強化訓練的做法是有害無益的。
　　備考雅思，首先需要恢復英文本身的功力，然后針對雅思考試的特點，進行系統的專項強化。因此，切實有效的作法是把備考雅思分成兩個階段來完成：實力恢復期和考題強化期。
