以下是引用steedzhu在2005-7-14 1:47:00的发言:此方法对于阅读的提高很有帮助。
下面是小安的原话,介绍了他的阅读方法。
There is a good way to improve reading, try to get my post and try to practice hard on the second round review, you can get a framework of RC and you will hardly do wrong on some question types, and then again the third round review will help you to practice what you learned from the second round, do not ignore this round, because when I finally take test, I have no tip for any question types. The tips I summarized are all translated into a feeling, I can easily correctly choose the answer according to my feelings, you have to practice to get those tips all translated into a habit.
Before you practice, try to think “why those answers are wrong?”, “Is there anything common in the wrong answers?”, “And in the right answers?” Try to comprehend what is "related" and what is "unrelated",do not easily judge, try to comprehend what is "related" and what is "unrelated"?? What is "related" and what is "unrelated" information (choice), that is a very important rule to quickly rule out some wrong choices and the next is “what is conform to the author”, “what is conform to the author's attitude”, and “what is not (also choices)”. If you see, try to read the passage again for the attitude info, this is a great rule to rule out some wrong choices, the attitude thing and I can tell you that, I did all the RC infer question without relocate because I can easily rule out wrong answers, memorize the pattern, and try to practice. Without practice, you can get nothing. But it is the goal; you should do something before hand.
First, categorize all the RC questions
You should guarantee 100% right on "main idea" type questions, try to collect all detail questions, I mean those with line number or key words, try to get these right answer back to the passage. You will see some question rules. I do not want to tell you because you can get the rules by yourself, if I tell you the detailed rule, you will not certainly get what I mean. Then collect the "structure type", and promise yourself you can do 90% right or higher, it is just easy like "main idea and attitude" thing.
Do you know why you should get question types apart?
First, you can get suttle feelings about how to make a question
Second, you can get info about how to prepare to do those questions when you are reading the passage, it is very important to get the question right, you will see when you finished summarizing, you can easily tell that “oh, I think ETS will make a question in here", when you are reading the passage, when you know there is a structure type questions, you will think following questions when reading:
1. why the author write this paragraph?
2. What he want to tell us?
3. Is there any change in attitude?
4. What is the function of the detail in this paragraph?
5. What may be the relation between this paragraph and the whole passage?
That is very important! Not everyone do that when reading, so they have to relocate info and it cost precious time, you should analyze the question like "what can I get the answer when I read", it is equal to "what part of passage I should read carefully when I read", I get all passages reread and underlined what part is the key to question. I mean on the passage using fluerecent pen, it is very clear.
Second: try to get all infer question collected, try to contrast the answer and the original text and try to get what is wrong about the wrong questions
Why they are all wrong, do not stop on why they are all wrong when you can get some feeling like "too extreme", you should think hard on how to quickly rule out some of them, that is the "related/unrelated" stuff. And the "attitude" stuff, which I mentioned above, the infer questions are very important if you want to get higher scores such as 730+.
You should categorize on subject matter, you will see that what the "science" passages want to test you on. The most important is "the whole logic relation between facts and stuffs", you have to get the logic relation between A,B,C,D...A lead to B, C can restrain A. D can restrain B, you must quickly realized that both C and D can restrain B, only A can lead to B, you only should memorize the "either lead to or restrain" relationships between things, do not get it more complicated, you will confused if you do not memorize or memorize too much. So just lead to or restrain, just support or do not support, that is enough for quickly ruling out most confusing wrong answers without relocating.
When you get 文科 passages, pay more attention on 列举, when you get economic and management passages, pay more attention to the logic推理顺序and support/unsupported relationship. You can easily get the feeling if you summarize and can get detailed feelings.
Third:
1. Try to directly get all the answers from passage because you are familiar with the passages. Do not see the questions, try to get what may be a question here
2. When you finished reading, try to write the frame in Chinese (or English) in a paper. It is quite like to write down 机经, do not read questions, do not read the passage when you write the frame,
Why you have to do this?
--To know what you have forgotten and the capacity of your memorization and you can improve in the next passage. Every paragraph, five questions and what may be the key point for questions and finally you will improve on the ability to memorize more of the passage framework, the more and the clear you can memorize the frame of the passage, the less time you have to spend on questions, practice in this round and try to get all your tips summarized into reading, you cannot tell clear rules finally, and you have get the all steps.
On the third round, try to answer the questions after finish the writing. Why? Try to practice "related/unrelated" and "conform or not conform to the attitude" rule, this is all I know about RC review and try to practice more passages in one day on the second round. The more you can get in one day, the stronger you feel about RC, it's easy to say but very tough.
一般原则:
——————
对于已经做完所有gmat阅读的xdjm,建议你把og和补充材料的阅读拿出来(共81篇,也可以挑一部分,比如补充材料第2篇完全可以删掉),进行横向总结:
1、根据细节题的题目和正确答案把考点在原文中全部画出来。然后看细节题的考法,总结:主要的无外乎取非和关键字替换
2、把所有main idea题看一遍,看其对文章意思的表述方法:有套路,且不走极端
3、把所有结构题看一遍,看其表述方法
4、把态度题看一遍(题目太少,可以再看看gre年代题)
5、最关键的题information题。没什么好方法,锻炼看题目时的记忆力,还有主要从段落意思上看
当你做完这样的总结后,你会形成一种gmat阅读的感觉,并且会在你再次作题时融入你的阅读方法。
对于句子理解上有困难的xdjm(衡量的标志:看阅读时看不懂文章在讲什么),建议你可以尝试训练杨鹏难句(不用练完,练出感觉就可以了)
对于那些对科技类和多生词类文章有困难的xdjm,希望你多练习首字母提炼技术,可以找gre的这类文章练,强迫自己做首字母提炼。
我在复习时总的感觉是,总结的时间远超过作题的时间,我甚至按题材和写作方法对所有题目进行了分类,现在看来,这个工作的帮助似乎不很大,没有题目总结那么有意义,不过目标比较高,时间又有剩余的朋友也可以做一下这个工作。你会发现历史类文章和地理考古类文章都具有鲜明的特色。
