学习高分经验斩获雅思阅读9分
1.阅读8.5
阅读的话自己在考前主要就是复习了一遍剑4~10的错误,把错误找回原文的对照然后分析。每道问题都要找到原文中的对应,这点非常重要,你找不到原文中对应的具体位置就不要妄下结论。雅思考试中除了考察大意、部分matching题以外,别的题目一般都是文中的某句话有着具体的对照。我觉得帮助自己实现飞跃的还是《平行阅读法》这本书,确实对于自己节约时间和提高正确率帮助很大。把书上内容和联系做一遍以后,就要按照平行阅读法来联系。具体也像书中所说的,不必拘泥于书本,关键是在真题练习当中找到边做题边阅读,平行答题的感觉。剑4~10我原先基本每篇要错10个甚至以上。经过总结和《平行阅读法》这部书的练习,做模拟实战时错误都能控制在5个以内,同时还有4~5分钟的时间剩余。实际考试的时候自己确实有些紧张,做的有点慢。时间刚刚好用完,不过每篇都限定在20分钟内搞定,所以这种方法对于阅读速度不高的大多数同学还是很有帮助的。
今天跟一个学姐聊起来,才意识到其实帮助自己阅读飞跃的不仅仅是平行阅读法,还有对《8分万能作文的阅读》。没错,就是8分万能作文这本书。当时她问到我怎么阅读文章中的长句子,我才想到自己对阅读长句子的技巧都来自于8分。你有没注意到8分上面的考官范文都是很长的句子,往往一个很长的段落只有3~5个句子,但每个句子都很长。当时我文章字数写不够,所以很用心的学习8分上的长句子怎么写出来的,对于句子的结构成分我也用笔勾画出来,同时把经典句型记在本子上。回到阅读当中,面对文章中的长句子,你也就不那么害怕和陌生了。
另外我们谈到了学术雅思涉及的一些专业名词问题(听力和阅读都有),我觉得这个大家不要担心,因为这个绝对不会影响你的理解。不认识某方面的专有名词,你只要把它们当做对应的A、B、C、D就好了,A有怎么样作用,A和B是什么关系,这就足够啦。
2.阅读8.5
其实我虽然雅思准备时间很短但是我在此之前准备过9个月的GRE,虽然诸多原因导致最后结果不理想,但是我单词的的确确,老老实实背下来了.因此我的阅读经验结合GRE备战分为内力和招式两大部分.
内力:
首先我想建议每个烤鸭都把对内力的重要性提高到一定的程度.本人也知道什么机经什么无词阅读法在IELTSer中间流传广泛,但是这些东西并不能真正提高我们的实力,最多运气好碰到几篇机经,做对几道有明确态度方向的地无词题.但是这纯属碰运气的事,就像买彩票,中大奖是小概率事件,不中奖才是正常的.
英语学习没有捷径,花多少功夫就得到多少结果. 就像武功,修炼内力才是正道,内力雄浑出招才能平凡中现神奇.只追求招数新奇迟早走火入魔.对于烤雅思阅读来说内力就是词汇量,对英语句式结构的熟悉程度。
词汇量:
词汇量无疑是重要的,阅读的时候如果单词都会就顺着读下去了。但是如果碰到有词不会,不管你是选择重读还是不管跳过,都会卡一下。这个卡一下是是十分浪费时间的,如果老是卡住想都不用想肯定不能按时做完了。而且阅读的不连贯也会影响我们对文章的理解程度。
大部分人觉得词汇量这个东西都是一点一滴积累的,没什么捷径可走.的确这是正确的,但是我们可以根据记忆曲线完美的配置我们的背单词的安排. 这里向大家推荐一下杨鹏背词法.这种方法可以在相对较短的时间内达到单词的识记,对阅读来说这种程度差不多够用了.保收估计雅思单词差不多一个星期就够了。
当然缩短背词周期的的代价是增加背词的密度,负担相对较重.必须指出的是这样背下来的单词通常不知道发音不会拼写,对于听力、口语来说没多大作用。背完后大约有十分之一的单词会读会写,所以对写作来说也会有莫大好处。
推荐大家时间充分去背下GRE词汇, 用书就用红宝书(GRE词汇精选,俞敏洪的)就够了。因为我发现我做的雅思真题里面难词都是GRE词汇。
句式:
句式也是内力很重要的一个环节。也许很多同学会觉得雅思阅读中有句子读不懂,于是重新回过头再去读一遍。这是绝对错误的。很浪费时间。导致这种事发生的原因有两个:一个是单词不认识,一个是句式不熟悉。
对于单词前面已经解决,而对于句式我也没有什么好办法,土办法倒是有一个:背难句。我当时准备GRE时背的时《GRE,gmat难句》,这本书里面列举了GRE中各种结构的难句。我觉得分析每句话的语法结构不好,因为养成看不懂就分析结构的习惯到考场上也去分析分析时间根本不够用,如果大家不信可以自己尝试一下。于是我直接拿着难句背诵,背了没有几句就有语感了,再回头看阅读文章就轻松很多。当然GRE难句的难度很大,居多native speaker都不能用扫读法读下来,需要做好心理准备。过程是痛苦的,前途是光明的。
最后再说说武功招式吧:
在熟悉阅读题的时候我一开始做完一篇文章平均耗时17分钟,搞得不好就有文章做21分钟。我一开始是按照GRE的方法去做的:先快速阅读文章(8分钟左右读完),以后阅读问题回头去文章里寻找答案。这导致了一个问题:我做完一篇文章就把文章看了四到五遍了,重复看文章浪费了大量时间。)
后来我看到网上有人说到了平行阅读法,感觉说得有道理。试了试,基本做完一篇文章最多读3遍。平均耗时下降到了14分钟,最快一篇12分钟就做完了。
最后的最后我想说做阅读的时候一定要回到文章里找答案,不要凭借印象做题,很容易错。
3.雅思9分
孤认为很有必要单独说一下雅思阅读的做题顺序问题。您要是觉得,自己已经掌握顺序了,直接掠过我~节省宝贵时间哈~
是这样的,以前我之所以没有说,是因为我觉得这是最最常识的东西,以为所有人都理所当然的明白的。就没有说,觉得说了我就更显罗嗦了。但是后来我慢慢发现,有很多很多同学,他们的做题方法居然是有点那个问题的。而且是很大的问题。影响时间影响速度,当然就影响了出手的准头,也就是正确率。甚至有很多人,(我 Q上为雅思阅读加了50人左右,但是我一般都是万年隐身。。。大家有事尽管举手发言~有照顾不到的,忘了回的,敬请原谅则个~我忘了,你一直催我就好了~),他们实力都非常非常强的,但是居然做题顺序不对。我估计纠正过来后,8分没有问题~
好,so少刚刚听我要加个更新差点死了,我就不罗嗦了,直接正题。
孤还是强调,雅思阅读没有任何技巧性可言!而我说的的做题顺序,您就当是一个知识普及。。。是必须必备非常基础的东西,这个顺序比你的词汇量还要重要。
听我从头讲起~~
首先必须知道,雅思的出题顺序是大乱序,小顺序。意思就是说,每种题型之间,为乱序。选择和yesorno肯定是乱序,不按题号出现在原文内容中。但是每种题型内部,一般来说,为顺序。即他们在原文中的位置,出现位置是按题号的顺序。这个规律简直就是一定的。但是我好像在剑7中,发现过一次反例。这是剑 34567中,唯一一次反例。可以忽略不计。所以童鞋们,只要记得大乱序,小顺序就好。
那么有了这种顺序应该怎么做题呢?。。。(语气好像找抽啊。。。。大家不要砸我~)
好,那我们就按题型来记题。
嗯,先看题再看原文,这种废话就不多说了,阅读都一样。(但是我还真的遇到过先看文章的神人。。。童鞋们!先看题目再做文章啊!)
看题的时候,每种题型看两个题,划出这两个题的关键词。注意,是只看两个!不要看一个题型中所有的题!那就意味着你遇到多少种题型就要看多少遍文章!
好,然后,带着你记住的这些题,去看文章。我估计一般情况下,一般啊,一次只需要记六个keywords就够了。下面的就不用我说了吧?每找出一个答案,就看该题型中的下一个题目,以此类推。没做完之前,每种题型,记两个题。
好,我们具体问题具体分析一下。
我随手打开剑5,T1,P1。我拿到这片文章,先看题目,每种题型记两个题,所以我先记的是,45,和89。这片的多选稍后说。比如我先找到8了,(我胡说的啊,没看题,就是比如一下~),那么我心中记得题目就变成了4,5,9,10。假设我又找到4了,那我心中记得就变成了,5,6,9,10.。希望我解释完了大家不要更糊涂了。。。.
但是也有可能,我都做完一种题型了,另一种的题型我还一个没有找到,很正常。
至于这篇的多选,肯定不能你一次只看两个选项的。但是第一次看题的时候呢,要是全把这选项记住,费时间,以后还忘。我觉得这种题,可以第一遍看题型的时候,略过。等你看完一段了,scan选项中有没有你要的东西。这么一段一段的看。
又至于matching,我说,所有人,就是加我阅读的所有人,都为matching而痛不欲生。。。所以不要担心,matching就是难。要死大家一起死。matching这种题目,有时关键词很简单,就是大写的人名。所以省去了记关键词的麻烦~我觉得matching就在于理解。别无他法。。。。
还有就是说,不少人都说,我觉得雅思文章很简单,我都能看懂,但是我就是做不对。。宝贝儿啊~~~~你都看懂了怎么可能做不对呢~~还是没有看懂嘛!小弱我总结了一下,一般是同义词替换的问题。就是说,不明白原文中的这句话,是对应题中的那个词的。理解才是王道。
要有信心啊童鞋们~我这个口语听力废人阅读都有8哦~阅读在四项中确实是最容易的了~我还知道一个女孩,实际上实力很强!最低7.5吧,但是就是死活没有信心。。。做题之前,要有这种气魄:什嘛玩意儿啊~蒙小孩呢~我肯定都能做对。根本不值一提。即使100人中99人和我答案不一样,我也认为一定是我对了!
做雅思,小宇宙,气场,一定要强~~~~~~以上就是小站雅思频道为大家带来的3篇雅思巨人经验贴,祝早日走出雅思阅读的雾霾,翱翔在口语和写作的填空中。祝与雅思和平分手。
雅思阅读模拟练习及答案
1 One of the most intelligent animals on the planet is the dolphin. 2 These unique animals have been regarded highly by humans for many centuries. 3 In ancient Greece, if sailors saw dolphins swim by their ships when they were starting out ______ a voyage, they believed they would have good luck.
4 One unique characteristic that makes them different from other sea animals is the way that they communicate. 5 Dolphins use sound, touch and taste in order to learn about their world; however, unlike dogs, dolphins cannot smell. 6 They use a whistle or sound waves to see and feel their way around their environment. 7 This makes them different from many other sea animals and also helps them communicate _______ people.
8 Another unique thing about dolphins is that the bones in their fins are similar ______ those in human arms and hands. 9 However, the connective tissue that surrounds the bones forms a flipper (鳍状肢) instead of a hand with individual fingers. 10 Even though dolphins live in the oceans, they do not drink the salt water around them. 11 Their bodies absorb water from the wide variety of creatures they eat.
12 Loving a dolphin is an easy thing to do but, unlike a dog or a cat, the dolphin cannot come home with you from the ocean. 13 That is why many people like collecting dolphin souvenirs. 14 One can find many such things in almost every shop around the world. 15 Even the ancient people painted the images of dolphins on their vases.

雅思考试阅读模拟练习及答案
1. The failure of a high-profile cholesterol drug has thrown a spotlight on the complicated machinery that regulates cholesterol levels. But many researchers remain confident that drugs to boost levels of ’good’ cholesterol are still one of the most promising means to combat spiralling heart disease.
2. Drug company Pfizer announced on 2 December that it was cancelling all clinical trials of torcetrapib, a drug designed to raise heart-protective high-density lipoproteins (HDLs)。 In a trial of 15000 patients, a safety board found that more people died or suffered cardiovascular problems after taking the drug plus a cholesterol-lowering statin than those in a control group who took the statin alone.
3. The news came as a kick in the teeth to many cardiologists because earlier tests in animals and people suggested it would lower rates of cardiovascular disease. “There have been no red flags to my knowledge,” says John Chapman, a specialist in lipoproteins and atherosclerosis at the National Institute for Health and Medical Research (INSERM) in Paris who has also studied torcetrapib. “This cancellation came as a complete shock.”
4. Torcetrapib is one of the most advanced of a new breed of drugs designed to raise levels of HDLs, which ferry cholesterol out of artery-clogging plaques to the liver for removal from the body. Specifically, torcetrapib blocks a protein called cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP), which normally transfers the cholesterol from high-density lipoproteins to low density, plaque-promoting ones. Statins, in contrast, mainly work by lowering the ’bad’ low-density lipoproteins.
Under pressure
5. Researchers are now trying to work out why and how the drug backfired, something that will not become clear until the clinical details are released by Pfizer. One hint lies in evidence from earlier trials that it slightly raises blood pressure in some patients. It was thought that this mild problem would be offset by the heart benefits of the drug. But it is possible that it actually proved fatal in some patients who already suffered high blood pressure. If blood pressure is the explanation, it would actually be good news for drug developers because it suggests that the problems are specific to this compound. Other prototype drugs that are being developed to block CETP work in a slightly different way and might not suffer the same downfall.
6. But it is also possible that the whole idea of blocking CETP is flawed, says Moti Kashyap, who directs atherosclerosis research at the VA Medical Center in Long Beach, California. When HDLs excrete cholesterol in the liver, they actually rely on LDLs for part of this process. So inhibiting CETP, which prevents the transfer of cholesterol from HDL to LDL, might actually cause an abnormal and irreversible accumulation of cholesterol in the body. “You’re blocking a physiologic mechanism to eliminate cholesterol and effectively constipating the pathway,” says Kashyap.
Going up
7. Most researchers remain confident that elevating high density lipoproteins levels by one means or another is one of the best routes for helping heart disease patients. But HDLs are complex and not entirely understood. One approved drug, called niacin, is known to both raise HDL and reduce cardiovascular risk but also causes an unpleasant sensation of heat and tingling. Researchers are exploring whether they can bypass this side effect and whether niacin can lower disease risk more than statins alone. Scientists are also working on several other means to bump up high-density lipoproteins by, for example, introducing synthetic HDLs. “The only thing we know is dead in the water is torcetrapib, not the whole idea of raising HDL,” says Michael Miller, director of preventive cardiology at the University of Maryland Medical Center, Baltimore.

Suggested Answers and Explanations
1. vi
2. ii
3. vii 本段介绍了torcetrapib和statin的治病原理,但是同时短语“in contrast”与之前第二段后半段的内容呼应,暗示了这两种药在理论上能相辅相成,是理想的搭配。第一个选项无法涵盖整段意义,故选择i是错误的。
4. iii 本段分析了可能导致torcetrapibl临床试验失败的原因,后半段指出如果以上推测正确,那么未来的药物可借鉴这个试验,设法避免torcetrapib的缺陷,研制出有效的药物。viii选项无法涵盖后半段的意思。
5. ix 见首句。
6. v
7. A 见第二段。题目中administer一词意为“用药”,subject一词为“实验对象”之意。
8. B 见第四段“… to raise levels of HDLs, which ferry cholesterol out of artery- clogging plaques to the liver for removal from the body.”即HDLs的作用最终是将 choleserol清除出人体:“… for removal from the body”。
9. B 见第四段“But HDLs are complex and not entirely understood.”
10. C 见第二段“… plus a cholesterol-lowering statin”,即statin是可以降低cholesterol的。
11. D 见第六段 “So inhibiting CETP, … might actually cause an abnormal and irreversible accumulation of cholesterol in the body.
12. A 见第三段。
13. C 见第四段“Statins, in contrast, mainly work by lowering the ’bad’ low-density lipoproteins
