篇1：英语四级考试 快速阅读命题剖析与预测
英语四级考试 快速阅读命题剖析与预测
快速阅读作为改革后出现的一种新题型，是考生在四级考试中遇到的第一道主观题，因此，它的答题状况，对考生整场考试的心态有至关重要的影响。其实，快速阅读看起来文章长，时间短，难度大，但实际上，它是所有题型中最容易的。正是因为篇幅长时间短的特点，所以并不要求考生将整篇文章都仔细读完。只要在原文中找到题干对应的点，便可以直接找出答案。可见，做快速阅读，重要的是在熟悉其命题规律的基础上把握答题技巧。
快速阅读一般有10个题目，题型不固定：前7个题目可能是多项选择题，也可能是是非判断题（包括正确、错误和原文未提及三种情况)，而后3个题目一般是句子填空或完成句子，填入部分通常为名词短语，其长度一般不超过7个单词。
新修订的《四级考试大纲（修订版)》对快速阅读有如下的要求和说明：
快速阅读部分“采用1～2篇较长篇幅的文章或多篇短文，总长度约为1000词。要求考生运用略读和查读的技能从篇章中获取信息。略读考核学生通过快速阅读获取文章主旨大意或中心思想的能力，阅读速度约每分钟100词。查读考核学生利用各种提示，如数字、大写单词、段首句或句首词等快速查找特定信息的能力。快速阅读理解部分采用的.题型有是非判断、句子填空、完成句子等”。
一般来说，快速阅读部分有以下几个明显的特点：
1.文章的体裁一般为说明文，有大标题，也可能有小标题；即使没有小标题，说明的层次也非常清楚；
2.文章长度大约为1000～1200词，难度适中，基本没有超纲词汇；即使有超纲词汇，也不会影响阅读理解，或者会用汉语在原文中注明；
3.文章的内容以科普知识居多，不要求完全理解，只要求能够通过略读或查读的方式找到题干的信息，并根据原文内容做出正确选择。
4.命题的顺序基本与原文保持一致，其中以段落的首、尾句处为最常考的内容。
5.无论何种题型，基本上都是以细节型题目为主，基本可以从原文直接找到答案。
6.命题的正确选项基本上是对原文内容的语意转述或结构互换，错误选项是对原文内容的夸大、缩小、偷换表达或无中生有。
快速阅读的命题特点和趋势有一定的稳定性。根据近几年来的命题特点预测，这次的题型很可能仍是“单项选择 + 句子填空”的形式，文章仍是一篇难度适中的说明文，内容可能会以社会生活、科普知识和教育文化等为主。
鉴于快速阅读题量大、做题时间短的特点，特别为考生提供以下几点复习备考建议和做题指导：
1.要熟练运用“定位法”（详见《大学英语四级考试一本通关――命题剖析与应试指导》一书），尤其要善于快速发现题干中的关键词或关键信息，在最短的时间内快速定位，并能够结合全文深入理解定位部分的内容；
2.对于有小标题的文章，一定要预先弄清楚各个小标题自身的含义及其相互之间的关系；对于没有小标题的文章，要从整体上把握文章的脉络结构以及说明顺序等宏观内容；
3.对于内容不熟悉或者难度较大的文章，不要企求向仔细阅读那样基本全懂，只要能在最短的时间内把各个题目理解清楚、并做出正确的选择即可。
4.平时在阅读英文报纸或杂志时，尽量有意识地训练和培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
(篇2：四级考试快速阅读
关于四级考试快速阅读
作为四级新题型，快速阅读让很多同学产生了畏难情绪。的确，15分钟要阅读一篇1200字左右的文章并且做完后面的十道题目，听起来确实挺吓人的。可仔细分析这两次新四级的快速阅读部分，发现难度并不像想象中那么大，甚至可以这么说，如果复习方法得当，快速阅读将是整个四级考试中最容易提高且最容易得分的部分，为什么这么说?快速阅读，源自国外的雅思考试，重点考察学生根据题干迅速定位到原文并且快速判断与原文吻合与否或提供原文相关信息的能力。举最新一次四级考试加以说明：1。The energy crisis in America discussed here mainly refers to ashortage of fossil fuels。首先，圈定关键词“energy crisis”“in America”可迅速定位到原文第一段第一句话：There's an energy crisis in America，and it has nothing to do with fossil fuels。原文中用的是“has nothing to do with fossil fuels(与化石燃料无关)”显然和题干中“mainly refers to ashortage of fossil fuels(主要指化石燃料的匮乏)”意思不符，所以显然是N。有意思的是，第4题同样也是原文中使用了“has nothing to do with”与题干表述不一致，所以为N，具体请同学们自己分析。
值得注意的一点是：快速阅读部分沿袭了雅思考试的相应模式，如果是原文中没有提到的信息就要选择NG，这与N是有区别的。所谓N是与原文信息不符，也就是根据原文信息可以判断出题干的表述与原文不一致，而NG则是原文根本没有相关信息的'支持。这就需要同学们在做题时一定要准确定位原文并仔细对照题干，看题干是对原文的同义替换还是偷换概念，或是与原文根本不相干，试举一例：
7。The real-estate broker the author knows is talented in home redecoration。这道题在10道题目中是有难度的，原文为A real-estate broker Iknow keeps herself amused on the job by mentally redecorating the houses she shows to clients。特别注意原文中的mentally一词，在头脑中重新装饰房屋，显然题干中所说的“在重新装饰房屋上有天分”与原文是不相干的，但原文又缺少相关信息说明题干表述是错是对，所以没有提到的信息就要选NG。
综上，我们可以得出快速阅读的一些规律：1。题目都是原文中一些细节性的信息，所以做题时一定要先阅读题干，然后根据题干中的关键词快速定位到原文相关信息处与原文做比较，一般来说通过比照原文就可直接得出答案，不需要推理。2。题目的顺序与文章的顺序是一致的，在查找文章相关信息时要特别注意这一点。3。简短回答仍然要定位到原文具体细节处，然后用文中的原话来补全句子，这一点比较简单，不赘述。4。时间允许的话，可以做一些雅思里面相关的练习，关键训练自己快速定位的能力。

篇4：6月英语四级考试命题剖析与指导：听力理解
第三章 听力理解
第一节 听力理解命题剖析与预测
听力理解是四级考试中分值较大的一个部分，占整份试卷的35%。它总共分为3个部分，四种类型：Section A由8组短对话和2组长对话组成，前者含有八个问题，后者含有7个问题，分值为15%;Section B由3篇短文组成，含有10个问题，分值为10%;Section C由一篇短文组成，要求填写7个单词和3句话，分值为10%。
一、听力理解命题剖析(略)
二、听力理解命题预测(略)
第二节 听力理解应试指导――“定位法”
根据听力部分的命题特点可知，“定位法”是最适合的解题方法之一，可以完全按照其基本步骤来解题，即：预测→定位→验证。
一、预测
鉴于听力的特殊性――阅读材料中只有题支，没有题干，所以主要是通过题支(复合式听写除外)来预测。预测的基本原则是：联系想内容，区别(反义)定答案;相似可能选，绝对定不选;积极可能选，消极必不选。“联系想内容”是指通过各个题支之间的联系来猜测听力材料的内容;“区别(反义)定答案”是指各个题支间的区别是确定答案的关键地方，尤其是意思截然相反的选项，其中之一很可能就是正确答案;“相似可能选”，是指两个结构相似的句子可能其中之一是正确答案;“绝对定不选”，是指内容过于绝对的选项一定不是正确答案，例如：选项中出现了only, all, any, best等词;“积极可能选，消极必不选”，其实是一个问题的两个方面，是指内容积极向上或者含义深刻的选项有可能是正确选项，而内容消极的选项一定是不正确的选项。但是，由于听力部分含有四种不同的题型，所以除了这个适用于所有听力预测的基本原则之外，每种题型都有自己一些特殊的预测方法，请具体参见后面各节中的解题技巧点拨部分。这里只针对一般情况作出举例说明。
1.联系想内容
A) Give his ankle a good rest.
B) Treat his injury immediately.
C) Continue his regular activities.
D) Be careful when climbing steps.
M: Today is a bad day for me; I fell off a step and twisted my ankle.
W: Don’t worry, usually ankle injuries heal quickly if you stop regular activities for a while.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
【预测】四个题支的关键区别是谓语不同：give, treat, continue 和be careful，但其中的ankle, injury，regular activities 和climbing steps等之间互有联系，可猜测本题与脚踝受伤有关，而且是女士对男士所提的建议，所以要重点听女士的话语。
2.反义定答案
A)The man hates to lend his tools to other people.
B)The man hasn’t finished working on the bookshelf.
C)The tools have already been returned to the woman.
D)The tools the man borrowed from the woman are missing.
W: Simon, could you return the tools I lent you for building the bookshelf last month?
M: Uh, well, I hate to tell you this…but I can?t seem to find them.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
【预测】选项C和D的意思截然相反，其中之一必是正确答案。
3.―6(略)
二、定位
由于卷面上的听力部分只有选项没有问题，所以除了要定位选项的内容之外，还必须在听的过程中对问题进行定位，这是做好听力的关键。对于问题的定位，一般会涉及到“5w1h”，即：where, when, who, why, what, how;同时，也可以通过题支的语法特点和含义来提前对问题定位，例如：by + doing sth.表示方式。对于选项内容(正确答案)的定位，一般遵循“听到啥选啥”的原则(短对话除外)。例如：(略)
三、验证(略)
第三节 短对话
一、短对话解题技巧点拨
一般来说，短对话部分共有8组对话，8个问题，每个对话涉及一个问题，彼此之间无联系。而且，与听力部分的其他题目相比，短对话是相对简单的一种题型。它的内容与大学生的日常生活结合最紧密，可能会涉及到学习、考试、住宿、交际、天气、购物、就餐、旅游、约会、交通、工作、送行、会议、娱乐、锻炼、职业等方面。
就解题方法和技巧而言，除了听力通用的“联系想内容，区别(反义)定答案;相似可能选，绝对定不选;积极可能选，消极必不选”的基本原则之外，短对话的解题有一个与其他题型特别不同之处，即：听啥不选啥。“听啥不选啥”，是指对原文直接重复的选项一般不是正确答案。这是因为短对话比较简单，要求考生能完全听懂，并对听到的内容有比较深刻的理解。例如：考试大论坛
A)Having confidence in her son.
B)Telling her son not to worry.
C)Teaching her son by herself.
D)Asking the teacher for extra help.
W: What would you do if you were in my place?
M: If Paul were my son, I’d just not worry. Now that his teacher is giving him extra help and he is working hard himself, he’s sure to do well in the next exam.
Q: What’s the man’s suggestion to the woman?
【技巧点拨】选项B中出现了原文的not worry，选项D中出现了原文的his teacher is giving him extra help，但是正确答案A几乎没有出现对话中的原词。

【预测】
11.A)She expected more people at her party.
B)She enjoys entertaining small children.
C)She threw a surprise party for her friend.

B)They feel lucky to live in Florida.
C)They are going to have a holiday.
D)They have not booked their air tickets yet.
12.四个选项侧重点不同，注意问题的问法;其中涉及到place, live, holiday, book tickets等词，可以猜测跟居住地和旅游有关。
篇5：英语四级考试快速阅读答题技巧
答题技巧一：一段一题、长段两题、平均分配
大学英语四级考试的快速阅读的出题方式一般都为一段出一题、长段出两题，遵循平均分配题目所在位置的原则，在此也不做特别举例?
答题技巧二：选小不选大
四级快速阅读中，问题的范围必须小于原文范围，反之则判定为错N
在此特别提示考生，如果题目中所表述的内容与原文明显不符、矛盾或相反，可判断为N。
确定为N的情况：
（1）题目中的信息与原文内容相反
（2）题目将原文的意思张冠李戴
（3）将原文中的不确定因素转化为确定因素
（4）改变原文中的条件、范围等
答题技巧三：两段判定（判断NG最好方法）
在四级快速阅读中，如果上一题已经确定了在原文中的位置，读过两段后仍无下一题所需信息，则可以判定该题为NG，而不用通读全文。
答题技巧四：主宾判定
四级快速阅读中，将题干的句子进行简单分解后，问题中的主语、宾语在原文未出现或被偷换概念是，判定为NG
确定为NG的情况：
（1）题目中的表述无中生有
（2）原文中作者的目的、意图、愿望等内容在题目中作为客观事实陈述
（3）将原文中的特殊情况推广为普遍现象
（4）将原文的内容具体化
（5）随意比较原文中的两个事物
答题技巧五：相关信息准确合并
快速阅读文章中有时可能会问到所面临的问题是什么？某事情的原因是什么？等等，这样的问题在文中可能是在不同的位置都有表述，所以考生遇到这样的问题时，不能只局限在某一段里面找答案，可以先做后面的题目，在后面的阅读中发现还有该题的答案时，将相关信息合并后再确定答案。

10.6月英语四级考试阅读七大答题技巧
篇6：英语四级考试快速阅读两大技巧
快速阅读从6月份首次出现到现在，题型的难度一直在稳步递增，其中也包含了题型的改变(自12月份起将判断题改为选择题)。这既折射出了命题者对该部分题型命制的探索与不断创新，也反映出了命题者在反复调整题型的难度系数，想要给该部分寻找到一个合适的分量。这种尝试既有成功，但也有欠考虑之处。考生普遍反映快速阅读难度过大，个别题目超出了四级甚至是六级考试大纲的要求。下面，将结合真题为各位考生揭开快速阅读解题的神秘面纱：
两大基本考点――skimming和scanning
其实“快速阅读”这个称谓是对这部分题型名称的一种误解，甚或说是一种误译。实际上试题册上所给的题型英文名称是Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)――阅读理解(略读与跳读)。不少考生正是由于受到所谓“快速”两字的误导，以为单纯求快就可以万事大吉，殊不知这其中是另有“隐情”。
Skimming――略读
略读，顾名思义就是要求考生在较短时间内把握住文章某个段落的主题思想。我们首先来看一下6月份快速阅读第一题：
1. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?
A) Her daughter's repeated complaints.
B) Fatigue resulting from lack of sleep.
C) The poorly managed state of her house.
D) The high financial costs adding up.
一般来说快速阅读的第一题往往是针对文章的开头部分。以该题为例，基本上所有考生都能够定位到第一段。可是第一段到底应该怎么读就成了个大问题。
A few months ago, it wasn't unusual for 47-year-old Carla Toebe to spend 15 hours per day online. She'd wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs C leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem.
诚然，从头到尾“快速”读完确实是个办法――而且也是绝大多数考生使用的办法，但这样做完全失去了skimming的意义。换个角度来说，如果每个题目都像这样把段落读完，那么十道题加在一起所积累的阅读量势必将超过15分钟的大限。其实大部分文章的段落重点或者说中心都集中在首末句上。略读所要考察的就是考生是否敢于大胆抓住首末句，抛去段落中间的无效部分，从而迅速找到答案。以本题而言，该段最后一句，尤其是but之后的“it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem”(直到她的四个女儿开始不断发出抱怨的时候她在开始意识到自己出问题了)就是答案所在位置。故而选择A选项。
再看6月的快速阅读第六题：
6. What did Dale think of Mindsets LLC’s workshop?
A) It was well-intentioned but poorly conducted.
B) It tapped into the executives’ full potential.
C) It helped him make fair decisions.
D) It met participants’ diverse needs.
这道题在当年得分率非常低。原因就在于这道题对应的可能段落有两段而不是一段(省略号表示段落略去部分，下文同此例)：
“I had a management position open in my department ;and the two finalists were a man and a woman . Had I not attended this workshop , I would have automatically assumed the man was the best candidate because the position required quite a bit of extensive travel . …”Dale’s assumptions are another example of the well-intentioned but incorrect thinking that limits an organization’s ability to tap into the full potential of a diverse workforce .
“I learned from the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation , I needed to present the full range of duties, responsibilities and expectations to all candidates and allow them to make an informed decision .” Dale credits the workshop , “because it helped me make decisions based on fairness .”
这道题目的要求更高。考生不仅要知道重点在两个段落的首末句上，还需要结合题目所问，对这四个句子孰轻孰重作出预先判断，然后再进行阅读。题目问的是Dale对这个研讨班的看法。据此看来一段第一句无效，因其起始部分讲到的是Dale在公司的position(职位)。同样该段末句也无效，Dale’s assumptions――讲的是Dale原先的一些错误想法和做法。很可惜的是当年不少考生都在这两个句子上耗费了大量时间，甚至还有个别考生通读该段，这样自然是得不偿失。
再来看下一段的第一句，I learned from the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation(我通过学习知道不能把自己的性别比、偏见带到工作中去)。这句话有用吗?显然也不行。因为它所讲到的是Dale在学习班里的收获。最后一句说道“because it helped me make decisions based on fairness”(因为这个研讨班让我能做出公平的选择)。读到这里第六题的答案也就顺理成章的选择C了。
206月第七题：
7. Andrew Heidrich now visits websites that discuss online gaming addiction to __________.
A) improve his online gaming skills
B) curb his desire for online gaming
C) show how good he is at online gaming
D) exchange online gaming experience
这道题和上述第六题颇有些相像。它对应的段落，也就是出现了Heidrich这个人物的段落，同样也是两段：
Andrew Heidrich, an education network administrator from Sacramento, plays World of Warcraft for about two to four hours every other night, but that's nothing compared with the 40 to 60 hours a week he spent playing online games when he was in college. He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention (干预), in which relatives told him he'd gained weight.
“There's this whole culture of competition that sucks people in” with online gaming, said Heidrich, now a father of two. “People do it at the expense of everything that was a constant in their lives.” Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly “to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check.”
如果读者朋友掌握了我们刚才所讲的方法自然就会觉得这题就比较轻松了。同样是抓住两个段落的四个重点句，然后根据题干进行判断。分析过程这里就不再赘述。很明显第二段最后一句是符合要求的。Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly “to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check.”(Heidirch现在经常浏览那些探讨网友成瘾问题的网站，不时提醒自己克制对网游的喜爱。)所以答案选择B。
通过上面三个例子的分析，我们不难看出四级快速阅读略读相对而言是比较容易掌握的。在确定出对应段落后直接分析它的首末句就可以了。只不过个别难题还要求结合题干逐一对照比较分析，在若干个首末句当中挑选出最合适的。还有一点不知道读者朋友有没有发现，实际上，在首句和末句当中最后能够充当答案的往往还是最后一句。记住这个小规律了对于提高解题速度也大有帮助。
Scanning――跳读
跳读其实对大家来说就比较熟悉了。首先是找准题干关键词，然后带入原文定位寻找答案。段落中与关键词无关部分可以一概略去不看。每次快速阅读考试都有几个直接定关键词就能得答案的送分题。比如206月份第三题：
3. What is becoming essential in the course of economic globalization according to the author?
A) Hiring qualified technical and management personnel.
B) Increasing understanding of people of other cultures.
C) Constantly updating knowledge and equipment.
D) Expanding domestic and international markets.
题目问在经济全球经济一体化的进程中什么变得非常重要(essential)。本题的关键词为essential，带入到文章中很快发现它出现在全文第五段：Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions. 题目简单就简单在essential之后的部分便是我们要找的内容――expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions(加深对异域文化的了解，重新审视自己那些不实的假想)，答案选择B。
快速阅读中的填空题更也几乎全部依靠跳读来定位。比如年6月第十题：
10. Now that she's got a boyfriend, Toebe is no longer crazy about __________.
题目的关键词当然是Toebe，再加上这又是最后一题，所以很快判断出应该到最后一段答案。
Since then, Toebe said, she has kept her promise to herself to cut back on her Internet use. “I have a boyfriend now, and I'm not interested in online dating,” she said by phone last week. “It's a lot better now.”
题目横线之前最后几个词是crazy about(痴迷于)。这个词组没有在原文出现，不过却出现了近义词组interested in，所以在其后的短语online dating就成为了本题的答案。
结合刚才两道题大家应该看到，跳读的基础是要找准关键词。一般说来，专有名词、时间数字、特殊名词短语这三类词汇是最容易被选中作为关键词的，因为它们标记明显，非常易于辨认。
不过近几年也出现了不少有一定挑战性的题目。例如6月第二题：
2. With the increase in the number of TV channels_________.
A) the cost of TV advertising has decreased
B) the nuiflber of TV viewers has increased
C) advertisers' interest in other media has decreased
D) the number of TV ads people can see has increased
Television's influence on advertising is fourfold. First, narrowcasting means that television channels are seen by an increasingly narrow segment of the audience. The Golf Channel, for instance, is watched by people who play golf. Home and Garden Television is seen by those interested in household improvement projects. Thus, audiences are smaller and more homogeneous(具有共同特点的) than they have been in the past. Second, there is an increase in the number of television channels available to viewers, and thus, advertisers. This has also resulted in an increase in the sheer number of advertisements to which audiences are exposed. Third, digital recording devices allow audience members more control over which commercials they watch. Fourth, control over programming is being passed from the networks to local cable operators and satellite programmers.
在本段中TV channels或者channel这个词多次出现给考生带来了不小的挑战。显然通读全段是不现实的。在这里也再次提醒读者注意，在应试过程中通读原文是万万不可采用的方法，很明显这样做也是违背了命题的初衷。比较现实的方法是找到该段中所有出现channel的句子，逐个与题目要求做比较，从而快速判断。一个个比较下来之后发现，在second这个词后面的句子是最符合题意的。“there is an increase in the number of television channels available to viewers, and thus, advertisers”――电视频道的增加意味着观众能看到的广告数量增加了。这样不难看出D为正确答案。
细心的读者可能已经发现了，无论是skimming还是scanning，都有可能牵涉到一个结合题干事先判断有效句的问题。而且一旦题目深入到这个层次也就无一例外的成为了该年度考试中的难题。不过这种判断过程实际也是有规律可循的――重点考察句子的前半部分，特别是状语部分。下面以2010年6月份第5题为例加以说明。
5. According to Orzack, people who struggle with heavy reliance on the Internet may feel __________.
A) discouraged
B) pressured
C) depressed
D) puzzled
这道题目的关键词是人名Orzack，对应的段落比较多
Excessive Internet use should be defined not by the number of hours spent online but “in terms of losses,” said Maressa Orzack, a Harvard University professor. “If it's a loss [where] you're not getting to work, and family relationships are breaking down as a result, then it's too much.”
Since the early 1990s, several clinics have been established in the U. S. to treat heavy Internet users. They include the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery and the Center for Internet Behavior.
The website for Orzack's center lists the following among the psychological symptoms of computer addiction:
…
Physical symptoms listed include dry eyes, backaches, skipping meals, poor personal hygiene (卫生) and sleep disturbances.
People who struggle with excessive Internet use maybe depressed or have other mood disorders, Orzack said. When she discusses Internet habits with her patients, they often report that being online offers a “sense of belonging, and escape, excitement [and] fun,” she said. “Some people say relief…because they find themselves so relaxed.”
不少考生看到这儿就觉得无所适从，不知从何读起，更不知道从何处寻觅答案。首先要记住题目要求――与网络依赖想抗争的人会有什么心理反应。循着这个线索逐一比较这几个段落。首先排除第一段，因为它的开始部分讲的是过度沉迷互联网――excessive Internet use;第二段起始部分是时间状语――since the early 1990s，这个也不是题目所涉及的内容/同理排除第三段和第四段。一直到第四段第一句终于出现了与题干几乎完全重合的部分，由此判断答案必然在该句出现。果不其然，答案就是“People who struggle with excessive Internet use maybe depressed”――与网络沉迷抗争的人可能会感觉情绪低落，所以该题答案选择C。
综上所述，考生们只要牢牢掌握好跳读与略低两个基本方法，再勤加训练就一定能在快速阅读部分拿到理想的分数。
篇7：英语四级快速阅读解题技巧
英语四级快速阅读解题技巧
Skimming――略读
略读，顾名思义就是要求考生在较短时间内把握住文章某个段落的主题思想。我们首先来看一下2010年6月份快速阅读第一题：
1. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?
A) Her daughter’s repeated complaints.
B) Fatigue resulting from lack of sleep.
C) The poorly managed state of her house.
D) The high financial costs adding up.
一般来说快速阅读的第一题往往是针对文章的开头部分。以该题为例，基本上所有考生都能够定位到第一段。可是第一段到底应该怎么读就成了个大问题。
A few months ago, it wasn’t unusual for 47-year-old Carla Toebe to spend 15 hours per day online. She’d wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs C leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem.
诚然，从头到尾“快速”读完确实是个办法――而且也是绝大多数考生使用的办法，但这样做完全失去了skimming的意义。换个角度来说，如果每个题目都像这样把段落读完，那么十道题加在一起所积累的阅读量势必将超过15分钟的大限。其实大部分文章的段落重点或者说中心都集中在首末句上。略读所要考察的就是考生是否敢于大胆抓住首末句，抛去段落中间的无效部分，从而迅速找到答案。以本题而言，该段最后一句，尤其是but之后的“it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem”(直到她的四个女儿开始不断发出抱怨的时候她在开始意识到自己出问题了)就是答案所在位置。故而选择A选项。
再看2009年6月的快速阅读第六题：
6. What did Dale think of Mindsets LLC’s workshop?
A) It was well-intentioned but poorly conducted.
B) It tapped into the executives’ full potential.
C) It helped him make fair decisions.
D) It met participants’ diverse needs.
这道题在当年得分率非常低。原因就在于这道题对应的可能段落有两段而不是一段(省略号表示段落略去部分，下文同此例)：
“I had a management position open in my department ;and the two finalists were a man and a woman . Had I not attended this workshop , I would have automatically assumed the man was the best candidate because the position required quite a bit of extensive travel . …”Dale’s assumptions are another example of the well-intentioned but incorrect thinking that limits an organization’s ability to tap into the full potential of a diverse workforce .
“I learned from the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation , I needed to present the full range of duties, responsibilities and expectations to all candidates and allow them to make an informed decision .” Dale credits the workshop , “because it helped me make decisions based on fairness .”
这道题目的要求更高。考生不仅要知道重点在两个段落的首末句上，还需要结合题目所问，对这四个句子孰轻孰重作出预先判断，然后再进行阅读。题目问的是 Dale对这个研讨班的看法。据此看来一段第一句无效，因其起始部分讲到的是Dale在公司的position(职位)。同样该段末句也无效，Dale’s assumptions――讲的是Dale原先的一些错误想法和做法。很可惜的是当年不少考生都在这两个句子上耗费了大量时间，甚至还有个别考生通读该段，这样自然是得不偿失。
再来看下一段的第一句，I learned from the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation(我通过学习知道不能把自己的性别比、偏见带到工作中去)。这句话有用吗?显然也不行。因为它所讲到的是Dale在学习班里的收获。最后一句说道“because it helped me make decisions based on fairness”(因为这个研讨班让我能做出公平的选择)。读到这里第六题的答案也就顺理成章的选择C了。
2010年6月第七题：
7. Andrew Heidrich now visits websites that discuss online gaming addiction to __________.
A) improve his online gaming skills
B) curb his desire for online gaming
C) show how good he is at online gaming
D) exchange online gaming experience
这道题和上述第六题颇有些相像。它对应的段落，也就是出现了Heidrich这个人物的段落，同样也是两段：
Andrew Heidrich, an education network administrator from Sacramento, plays World of Warcraft for about two to four hours every other night, but that’s nothing compared with the 40 to 60 hours a week he spent playing online games when he was in college. He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention(干预), in which relatives told him he’d gained weight.
“There’s this whole culture of competition that sucks people in” with online gaming, said Heidrich, now a father of two. “People do it at the expense of everything that was a constant in their lives.” Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly “to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check.”
如果读者朋友掌握了我们刚才所讲的方法自然就会觉得这题就比较轻松了。同样是抓住两个段落的四个重点句，然后根据题干进行判断。分析过程这里就不再赘述。很明显第二段最后一句是符合要求的。 Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly “to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check.”(Heidirch现在经常浏览那些探讨网友成瘾问题的网站，不时提醒自己克制对网游的喜爱。)所以答案选择B。
通过上面三个例子的分析，我们不难看出四级快速阅读略读相对而言是比较容易掌握的。在确定出对应段落后直接分析它的首末句就可以了。只不过个别难题还要求结合题干逐一对照比较分析，在若干个首末句当中挑选出最合适的。还有一点不知道读者朋友有没有发现，实际上，在首句和末句当中最后能够充当答案的往往还是最后一句。记住这个小规律了对于提高解题速度也大有帮助。
