大學英語六級考試高分得主經(jīng)驗談：閱讀理解

　　Q1：在選文中，單詞dialectic的大意是：A)：對真理的探索;B)：對現(xiàn)實的客觀態(tài)度;C)：逆來順受;D)：辯證法的體系。根據(jù)上下文，正確答案應該是選項D)，其他選項都不對。

　　Q2：句子二中inexpedient一詞的含義是不便的，不明智的。所給的四個選項的意思分別是：A)：無故的;B)：明智的;C)：不現(xiàn)實的;D)：效率高的。從文章和句子中可以看出，正確答案是選項c)。其他選項都不對。

　　Q3：作者稱辯證法可以幫助一個人分析不誠實的“stratagems”。所給四個選項的意思分別是：A)：統(tǒng)計學;B)：工具;C)：態(tài)度;D)：手勢。在本文中stratagem應為“方式、方法、工具”之意，所以正確答案是選項B)，其他選項都不對。

　　Q4：當作者暗示說他想得到的是人的天性，作者指的這種驅(qū)動力是：A)：自然的;B)：邪惡的;C)：錯誤的;D)：理論的�？忌�可以從innate天生的，固有的，一詞推知答案是選項A)，其他選項都不對。

　　又如：1990年1月試題第31題

　　31 、It is implied that fifty years ago_______

　　A) eighty per cent of American working people were employed in factories

　　B) twenty per cent of American intellectuals were employees

　　C)the percentage of intellectuals in the total work force was almost the same as that of individual workers

　　D) the percentage of intellectuals working as employees was not so large as that of the industrial workers

　　答案選D)。這是一道需要自己推斷結論的題，在文中沒有現(xiàn)成的答案。文章中提到約一百年前只有1/5的人受雇于人，50年前被雇傭意味著在工廠或農(nóng)場當勞力，而今天只有1/5的人不受雇于人，而且今天的雇員中受過教育的中產(chǎn)階級的數(shù)目越來越大，由此推出50年前的雇員中知識分子的比例遠遠小于產(chǎn)業(yè)工人。

　　有的考生往往把推理題想得太難，于是就天馬行空地亂推，一般推一步就可以得到結論了，最多都不要推過兩層意思。

　　五、作者的觀點、態(tài)度題

　　作者往往并不直接表明自己對某一事物或觀點的態(tài)度和傾向，有時通過全文的敘述，有時可通過作者的用詞(尤其是形容詞和副詞)，推斷作者的語氣。常見的提問方式有：

　　What is the author's opinion?

　　How does the author feel about...?

　　Which of the following can best describe the style of the

　　passage?

　　要做對這類題，必須做到正確理解作者真正的觀點，同時還要正確地推斷作者的語氣、態(tài)度，弄清作者寫這篇文章的目的是什么，作者的態(tài)度是肯定還是否定，以及文中的事實論據(jù)是否支持作者的論點等等。同時還必須體會作者的用詞和其他修飾手段，例如比喻和諷刺。在讀文章的時候要注意勾畫出表示作者態(tài)度的一些詞語，比如sure，satisfaction，magnanimous，還有一些帶有消極意義的詞，比如ruffled，stingy等。

　　例如：

　　The deliberate violation of constituted law (civil disobedience )is never morally justified if the law being violated is not the prime target or focal point of the protest. While our government maintains the principle of the Constitution by providing methods for and protection of those engaged in individual or group dissent, the violation of law simply as a technique of demonstration constitutes rebellion.

　　Civil disobedience is by definition a violation of the law. The theory of civil disobedience recognizes that its actions, regardless of their justification, must be punished. However, disobedience of laws not the subject of dissent, but merely used to dramatize dissent, is regarded as morally as well as legally unacceptable. It is only with respect to those laws which offend the fundamental values of human life that moral defense of civil disobedience can be rationally supported.

　　For a just society to exist, the principle of tolerance must be accepted, both by the government in regard to properly expressed individual dissent and by the individual toward legally established majority verdicts. No individual has a monopoly on freedom and all must tolerate opposition. Dissenters must accept dissent from their dissent, diving it all the respect they claim for themselves. To disregard this principle is to make civil disobedience not only legally wrong but morally unjustifiable.

　　Q: According to the author,

　　A) the principle of tolerance must be accepted by both parties

　　B)civil disobedience cannot be accepted in a just society

　　C)in a just society, no individual tolerate opposition

　　D) many authorities respect dissent as necessary to the functioning of a free society

　　正確答案是A)。文中最后一段第一句正是作者表達的觀點：容忍的原則要被雙方接受才可。標志詞是must be。像must be，should這類語氣的詞均表明了作者是完全支持這種觀點的。
