大学英语六级学习经验大学英语六级阅读高效复习技巧（整理8篇）由网友“Youth小废柴”投稿提供，下面是小编给各位读者分享的大学英语六级学习经验大学英语六级阅读高效复习技巧，欢迎大家分享。

篇1：英语六级阅读高效复习技巧

1、阅读的复习应该从词汇着手还是从文章着手?

我觉得阅读的复习有两个起点，第一单词，第二难句。文章的练习其实还是其次。许多同学在考试前，总是对于单词和难句不太重视，着急于做题目，但是效果往往不佳。究其原因，是基本功方面出了问题。所以，我强调大家从最基本的词汇和难句入手，一直坚持到考试前的一天。当然这样说，并不是就认为应该割裂文章的阅读，而是希望大家要尽可能全面兼顾。

2、如何迅速地在接下来不长的时间里大幅度地提高词汇量?如何在短时间内达到四级词汇要求?如果四级是勉强过的，如果在短时间达到六级的词汇要求?如何能改善背单词手册前背后忘的状况?

词汇量的短期补充是完全可能的，但同时也是很艰苦的。这里，我分两个方面来谈。

首先，单词的记忆是有一定方法，诸如“联想”、“谐音”、“拆分”、“词缀”等方法。具体方法会因各人的学习体验不同而变化。通过这些方法确实可能在短期对单词记忆产生突破性效果。但是，我更觉得四、六级词汇都属于基础词汇，基础词汇的记忆更多是依靠辛苦的重复。所以，短期大量单词的记忆意味着更大的艰辛。

其次，单词记忆中最大的困扰可能不是单词记忆本身，而是单词在不断的记忆中被大量的遗忘。其实我倒觉得这是一个正常的记忆过程中必经的阶段。单词就是在不断的遗忘中得到记忆的。所以，希望减少遗忘的方法就是多次地减少间隔时间的循环。

3、一天以背多少单词为宜?时间安排上如何安排是效率最高的?

应该说准确地划定每天单词的记忆量是很难的，毕竟因人而异。但是，效率的安排上我觉得以琐碎时间记忆最好。

4、都说研究真题最好，但真的面对一篇真题阅读该如何着手?对于一篇阅读我们应该读几遍?该怎么利用一篇阅读材料?有必要去研究透里面每一个词每一句句子吗?阅读里面哪些句子应该重点读的?

研究真题思路确实是教学中我多次强调的问题。许多考生把对真题的复习粗糙地理解为真题内容的熟悉和记忆，乃至也在谆谆告诫下将文章甚至答案都记忆的非常清晰。其实，研究真题是希望透过题目，分析文章的信息编排方式采用了怎样的模式，选项设计体现了怎样的规律。通过极少量的真题的详细研究做到以一当十。具体到单词，我个人不觉得阅读理解中可以明确谈高频词汇的说法。句子方面，我倒觉得只要碰到个人读不太懂的句式就应该拿出来，具体分析，因为读不懂的这些我们俗称“长难句”的构造其实也体现了一些规律性。

5、四六级阅读常考的文章素材是哪几类的?平时我们还能通过哪些途径读到这些文章?有没有好的推荐?

素材的分类标准并不唯一。从社会学的角度进行一般性分类的话，也可以分为“经济”、“科技”、“人文”、“自然”。这种类型的文章从很多的杂志和报纸上都可以读到。我个人觉得《英语世界》比较不错，尤其上面的文章本身涉猎很丰富，而且还有英汉对照。当然国外的一些期刊杂志也不错，诸如《国家地理》等。

6、六级和四级的区别在哪里?需要重点抓哪些方面?

由于四六级命题者是一致的，所以从解题思路、命题风格、文章选材而言，四六级没有很大的区别，六级只要体现的难度还是在于

1)词汇，四级 4200，六级5500+94个词组。我们应该重点关注六级的那1300个单词;

2)语法结构，六级考试长、难句比四级多，也复杂得多。

3)阅读速度上要求不一样。四六级一直强调阅读速度。四级为50words/min，六级为70words/min，但在生词含量少于3%的时候，要求六级的阅读速度达到110words/min，即四分半钟读完一篇文章。我们还是应该从基础做起，先把词汇巩固，这才是考试获得高分的一个前提

7、为什么一篇文章读懂了，但题目就是做不对呢?问题出在哪儿?

这个问题比较奇怪，我只能很遗憾的说：“同学，你根本没有读懂文章”。我们做阅读理解的解题原则叫“本本主义”，所谓正确选项一定是和原文同义表达。与原文相反或者是文中未提及的都是错误的。

8、现在四六级的问题总的趋势是考细节题多呢?还是概括性的多呢?

四六级考试还是以细节题为主，但是能否找到一篇文章或者一段话的主旨也是非常重要的。四六级阅读就是考两大能力“主题和定位”。在做任何题型时，如果你感觉茫然，找不到定位信息，你的唯一的救命稻草就是文章或者段落的主题。哪一个和文章靠的近，哪一个就是正确的答案。

9、阅读里面还有一类题型是简短问答，这个题型要注意什么?回答问题的句子能不能照抄原文的?字数有没有限制呢?

简单题注意回答问题要与提干范围相吻合，避免答非所问，注意不要犯语法错误(主谓不一致，时态不对应，单词拼写错误)。尽可能简洁。照抄的话可以参考以下三大原则：1)以单词或词组回答，完全照抄;2)以4个或者4个以下组成句子可以照抄;3)较长的句子用代词替换名词，动词替换词组。字数限制 10个以下。

10、阅读是大头，对于现在没复习的考友，有什么好的建议呢?现在准备还来得及吗?

现在还没有复习的话肯定来不及了。语言是一个慢慢积累的过程，任何一门考试都是75%能力+20%技巧+5%状态。建议同学们在最后两个星期狂背单词，先把词汇解决，然后可以去做几套真题，对自己经常会犯的一些错误作一个分析和总结，找出薄弱环节，重点付息巩固。

篇2：关于大学英语六级阅读

The drums beat as the dragon boats race . This must be mainland China or Taiwan, right? Think again. These days the traditional Chinese boats are racing in places as unlikely as England and Italy. Dragon -boat racing was introduced to the world in 1982, when the Hong Kong Dragon Boat Festival1 included international competitors. In the 1990s, dragon-boat racing caught on2 in many non-Asian countries. It quickly became the world’s fastest-growing water sport. What’s the appeal3 ? Dragon-boat racing combines athletic competition , cultural interest and just plain fun.

The boats are manned4 by 20 paddlers, one drummer and one person who steers. Nearly 18 meters long, the colorful boats resemble dragons with elaborate heads and tails. The team paddles to the beat of the drum. The boats speed along, rising high and moving smoothly along the water. In about three to six minutes, they cross the finish line.

The races recall Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet in ancient China. When he drowned in the Mi Luo River, the people raced out to save him. But they were too late .

Dragon boats are now racing in towns and cities around the world. Students, working people and older people race for fun and exercise . Serious paddlers compete for cups and medals. In the United States, the Pacific Northwest International Dragon Cup is in its 11 th year. In Toronto, about 250, 000 spectators turn out for dragon-boat races each summer. Sweden has over 400 teams. Poland, too, has several dragon-boat clubs.

There are even consulting businesses to help people organize local dragon-boat events. They help with site selection, team training and safety. Besides that, non-profit organizations hold competitions to raise money.

And various regional and worldwide races — too many to name — keep serious paddlers busy. In September , Rome hosted the Club Crews World Championship. In , world-class teams gathered in Shanghai for the fifth International Dragon Boat Federation races. In . . .

Going to Europe this summer? If so, just remember: When in Rome, do as the Chinese do!

老传统, 新生命

鼓声阵阵, 龙舟竞渡。这一定是在中国大陆或是在中国台湾吧? 不对, 再猜猜看! 如今, 传统的中国龙舟在英国和意大利等这些不太可能出现的地方比赛。1982 年, 香港龙舟节广邀世界好手参加, 龙舟赛开始为世人所知。20 世纪90 年代, 龙舟赛逐渐在亚洲以外许多国家盛行开来, 并迅速成为一项全球性的水上运动。龙舟赛的魅力何在? 它的魅力在于它将运动竞技、文化趣味以及娱乐完美地结合起来。

船队由18 位划船手、1 位击鼓手和1 位舵手组成。龙舟将近18 米长, 船身被装点得五彩缤纷, 船头和船尾被精心制作成龙头和龙尾的形状。队伍随着鼓声节奏划桨。随着龙舟的速度不断加快, 船身的吃水越来越浅, 在水面上飞速前进。大概只需3 ～6 分钟, 龙舟就能冲过终点线。

这项比赛是为了纪念中国古代爱国诗人屈原而举办的。当年他在汨罗江投水后, 人们驾船去救他, 但为时已晚。

如今, 赛龙舟盛行于世界的各个城镇。学生、上班族和老年人参加龙舟赛是为了娱乐和锻炼身体, 而职业的划船手则为奖杯和奖牌而赛。在美国, 西北太平洋世界龙舟锦标赛已经迈入了第十一个年头。在多伦多, 每年夏天大约有25 万人前去观赏龙舟赛。瑞典有 400 多支龙舟队伍。波兰也有多个龙舟俱乐部。

一些地方甚至还有专门的咨询机构协助筹办地方性的龙舟赛事。他们负责选择比赛场地, 训练队员和维护安全。此外, 一些非盈利性组织也通过举办龙舟赛来募集资金。

各地还会举办许多地区性或全球性的比赛——— 数目繁多, 不胜枚举——— 这让许多职业划船手着实非常忙碌。2003 年9 月, 罗马主办了世界龙舟争霸赛。2004 年, 众多的队伍聚集上海, 参加第五届国际龙舟联盟赛。2005 年⋯ ⋯

今年夏天要去欧洲吗? 如果是的话, 要记住: 入罗马境, 随龙人俗!

阅读导评

古诗《端午赛龙舟》云:“ 端午云开阵雨收, 万人江上赛龙舟。心随鼓点声声急, 忘却屈原当日愁。”这是诗人描写人们观看赛龙舟的真实情景。赛龙舟作为中国一项传统民间运动, 因其竞技性、文化趣味性、娱乐性和大众参与性, 在今天依然有着旺盛的生命力, 并风行于世界各地。在全球一体化的今天, 各民族的传统文化正在不断地交流融合, 君不见, 时下许多“ 洋节”也在我们身边悄然兴起。

阅读导释

1. 香港龙舟节是一项大型的文化活动, 每年8 月初举行, 每次大约有70 ～80 支来自世界各 039 地的业余龙舟队伍参赛, 至今已举办十几届了。

2. 受欢迎, 变得流行起来, 常用于口语。例如: Mini-skirts first caught on in the 1960s. ( 迷你裙最初是在20 世纪60 年代流行开来。)

3. appeal n. 吸引力, 如: Learning English has a special appeal for business people in Asia. ( 亚洲商界学英语的劲头很足

4. man v. 给⋯⋯配备人手, 如: manned spaceship ( 载人飞船) ; What sort of people would he select to man his government? ( 他将选择怎样的人员来组阁呢?)5. 此句改写自谚语:When in Rome, do as the Romans do. ( 入乡随俗。) 作者巧妙地改用广为人知的俗语, 使文章结尾变得生动有趣, 整篇文章顿时活了起来。

篇3：关于大学英语六级阅读

of all the thanksgiving symbols the turkey has become the most well known. the wild turkey is native1 to northern mexico and the eastern united states.

the turkey has brown features with buff-colored feathers on the tips of the wing and on the tail. the male turkey is called a tom2 and, as with most birds, is bigger and has brighter and more colorful plumage. the female is called a hen and is generally smaller and drab in color. the tom turkey has a long wattle ( a fleshy, wrinkled, brightly colored fold of skin hanging from the neck or throat) at the base of its bill and additional wattles on the neck, as well as a prominent tuft of bristles3 resembling a beard projecting downward from its chest.

the turkey was originally domesticated in mexico, and was brought into europe early in the 16th century. since that time, turkeys have been extensively raised because of the excellent quality of their meat and eggs. some of the common breeds of turkey in the united states are the bronze, narragansett, white holland, and bourbon red.

though there is no real evidence that turkey was served at the pilgrim’s4 first thanksgiving, in a book written by the pilgrim’s governor bradford, he does make mention of wild turkeys. in a letter sent to england, another pilgrim describes how the governor sent “ four men out fowling”returning with turkeys, ducks and geese .

benjamin franklin5 once said, “ i wish the bald eagle6 had not been chosen as the representative of our country; he is a bird of bad moral character; like those among men who live by sharping7 and robbing, he is generally poor and very often lousy. the turkey is a much more respectable bird and withal a true original native of north america . ”

火鸡漫谈

在感恩节所有的象征中, 火鸡已经成为人们最熟悉的东西。野火鸡主要生长在墨西哥北部和美国东部。

火鸡通体呈褐色, 只是在翅尖和尾部点缀些许浅黄色的羽毛。人们称雄性火鸡为 t om。和大多数鸟儿一样, 公火鸡个头更大, 羽毛的颜色也更加鲜艳明亮。人们把雌性火鸡称作h en。母火鸡的个头较小, 羽毛是单调的土褐色。公火鸡嘴的底部有一条长长的肉垂( 这是一种从脖子或喉咙垂下的肉质的皮肤褶皱, 色彩艳丽) , 脖子上也会长些肉垂。而且, 公火鸡还长有一丛从胸部垂下来的像是一撮胡子一样的竖毛。

火鸡最早在墨西哥被驯化, 并在16 世纪早期被输送到欧洲。从那时起, 人们就因其高品质的肉和蛋而开始大量饲养火鸡。美国最常见的火鸡品种主要有青铜色、纳拉甘塞特、荷兰白和波旁红等。

尽管并没有确凿的证据证明美国清教徒在过第一个感恩节时曾把火鸡摆上宴席, 但是他们的总督布雷德福在他写的一本书中确实提到了野火鸡。另一个清教徒在他寄往英格兰的信中描述了总督是怎样派“ 四人出去捕鸟”, 结果却带了些火鸡、鸭子和鹅回来。

本杰明· 富兰克林曾经这样说:“ 要是当年我们没有选择秃头雕作为我国的象征就好了。秃头雕的品行不好, 就像那些靠欺骗和掠夺为生的人中败类一样, 它一般都很卑下, 而且行为通常也很卑劣。火鸡则是一种更加值得尊敬的鸟, 不仅如此, 它是北美真正土生土长的鸟儿。”

阅读导评

一提到火鸡, 人们就会想到感恩节餐桌上那道香喷喷的大餐, 但是把它和美国历史联系起来的人并不多。假如美国人当年真的把火鸡选作国鸟, 是不是美国甚至整个世界的历史都会改变呢? 鸟儿, 不论是高尚还是卑鄙, 无非是为了生存而已, 可人的欲望却是无止境的。要改变国鸟, 再难也容易, 要改变整个国家的政策和国民的性格, 才是最难最难的。

阅读导释

1. 这个词作“ 本地的, 土生的”解, 如: native land ( 故乡) ; native tongue ( 母语) ; a native italian ( 一个土生土长的意大利人) ; the maize is native to america. ( 玉米是美洲的土产。)

2. 这里指“ 雄性动物”, 特别是猫和火鸡。后文中的hen 多指雌性家禽和水生动物。考虑到本文的写作特点, 直接译为公火鸡和母火鸡。

3. 该词原指竖起的鬃毛, 此处指火鸡脖子上竖起的较硬的羽毛。

4. pilgrim 原意为朝圣者。此处大写, 专指美国早期的清教徒移民。1620 年, 的“ 五月花”号船满载着不堪忍受英国国内宗教迫害的102个清教徒到达美洲, 并且在新英格兰建立普利茅斯殖民地。为了纪念那些虔诚的殖民者, 也为感谢上帝赐予丰收和健康, 美国把每年11 月的第四个星期四定为感恩节。火鸡和南瓜饼都是这一节日的传统食物。

5. 本杰明·富兰克林( 1706—1790) , 18 世纪美国的政治家和文学家, 同时还是了不起的科学家、发明家。他一生最真实的写照是他自己所说过的一句话:“诚实和勤勉, 应该成为你永久的伴侣。”

6. 秃头雕。从1782 年起, 秃头雕就是美国的国鸟。秃头雕捕猎的本领较差, 只会跟随其他海鸟一起去捉鱼, 往往只能抓那些死鱼和半死不活的鱼。有时候, 它们还会从鱼鹰的嘴中把鱼抢去。

7. 这个词并不是标准用法, 出自sharp adj. 狡猾的, 欺骗的。此处相当于动词, 指“( 运用狡猾的手段进行) 欺骗”, 特别用于商业贸易中。

篇4：关于大学英语六级阅读

christianity

christianity began life as a jewish sect. far from attempting to find a new religion, the first christians viewed themselves as jews following the teachings of the jewish messiah . it was only later, after many non-jews converted, that christianity became a religion distinct from judaism2

although christianity shares much with judaism, these two faiths differ significantly with respect to such fundamental issues as god’s relationship with humanity. the central motif through which this relationship has been understood in both traditions is that of a covenant or contract. in hebrew scr iptures ( the old testament3) , god offers a special relationship with his chosen people — the jews through a contract that specifies the terms of this relationship . the details of this arrangement have been modified and expanded from time to time, in a series of covenants with noah, abraham, and moses4. the most well known of these contracts is god’s agreement with moses on mt. sinai, the ten commandments5.

in the christian understanding of covenant theology, god offers humanity a new contract — the new testament6— as revealed in the person and teaching of jesus. unlike previous covenants, the new covenant refers to the eternal fate of individuals rather than to the worldly fate of the nation of israel. also, rather than being offered only to jews, the new contract is offered to humanity as a whole . individual salvation7 and the question of how that salvation can be achieved is a dominant theme of traditional christianity.

salvation, according to this tradition, is necessary because otherwise the individual is condemned to spend eternity in hell8 , a place of eternal punishment. born into sin, the sentence of eternal damnation is the fate of every person unless she or he is saved from this fate by being“ born again ”through faith in jesus christ. all other doctrines are built around a warning of condemnation and a redeeming message of redemption. as the core doctrine, it would be natural that arguments over soteriology ( one’s theory of redemption) would lead to religions schisms. disagreement over competing notions of salvation led to the split between catholicism and protestantism.

given the stark contrast between heaven and hell as eternal abodes of the soul, serious thinkers have had to grapple with the question —what happens to people who, while not saints, nevertheless are generally good people who have never committed any major sins in their lives? reflection on this problem led to the development of purgatory9, an intermediate realm between heaven and hell. in purgatory, souls are tortured for their sins, but are eventually released and allowed to enter heaven.

the apple of discord

the wedding of peleus and the sea-goddess thetis2 were held and all gods were invited. but her absence3 of one goddess was clearly noticeable. it was eris, the goddess of discord. as she planted seeds of discord wherever she went, it was natural that her presence at the ceremony was not desirable. she had good reason to feel angry. so she decided to make fun of4 the group at the party. eris slipped5 into the hall after the couple left and rolled on the floor a golden apple , having the words, “for the fairest”. it caused a violent quarrel among the three goddesses, hera , athena and aphrodite. zeus found it advisable to send them before a shepherd boy on mt ida, paris by name , for judgment. hermes, the messenger, took the apple in his hand and led the goddess away.

paris was son of priam, king of troy. as his mother dreamed at his birth that she was bearing a piece of burning wood, the babe was regarded as representing the destruction of the city itself. to save the kingdom from possible disaster6 , the parents had the helpless infant left on top of mt ida to die. however, he survived his ill fate. brought up by the herdsmen, he became a strong, handsome lad. he was secretly united with oenone, a fair and faithful mountain fairy maiden. on this particular day, as he was taking care of his sheep on the mountain side, the youth was surprised to see four human beings standing before him. hermes told him about his mission and left. the three holy beauties then competed with each other, showing themselves up before the shepherd. hera promised to make him king of asia. athena undertook7 to help him get imperishable fame in war; whereas aphrodite offered to secure for him the love of the most beautiful woman in the world. the primitive instinct of the boy thus moved, aphrodite won the prize , and the other two goddesses left in anger and became deadly enemies of troy.

the last dinner

jesus spent his last few hours of liberty quietly in the suburb of bethany. it was the day of passover. the jews observed this feast by eating roast lamb and unleavened bread. 2

jesus asked his disciples to go to town and reserve a room in one of the smaller inns and order a dinner that they might all be together.

when evening came, judas, looking bland3 and innocent, left the house together with the others. they went down the mount of olives and entered the city and found that everything was ready. they took their seats around one long table and began to eat.

but it was not a cheerful meal. they felt the dread of those coming events which already were casting their terrible shadow over the small group of faithful friends.

jesus spoke very little. the others sat in gloomy silence. at last peter could stand it no longer, and he blurted4 out what was in everybody’s mind . “master, ”he said,“we want to know. do you have reason to suspect one of us?” softly jesus answered, “ yes. one among you who is now sitting at this table will bring disaster upon us all. ” then all the disciples got up and crowded around him. they protested their innocence. at that moment judas slipped quietly out of the room. they now all knew what was to come. they could no longer remain in that little room. they needed fresh air, and they left the inn and walked out of the gate and went back to the mount of olives and opened the wicket to a garden which a friend had told them to use whenever they wished to be alone . it was called gethsemane5 , after an old oil-press which stood in a corner. after a while jesus walked away from the little group. but three of the disciples who were closest to him, followed at a distance.

he turned around and bade them wait and watch while he prayed.

the time had come for a final decision. escape was still possible , but escape would mean a silent confession of guilt and defeat for his ideas.

he was alone among the silent trees and fought his last great battle . he was a man in the fullness of his years. life still held a great promise. death, once his enemies captured him, would come in a most terrible form. he made his choice . he stayed. he went back to his friends. and behold! they were fast asleep . a moment later, the whole garden was in an uproar. led by judas, the guards of the sanhedrin rushed upon the prophet. judas was at their head. he threw his arms around his master and kissed him. 6 that was the sign for which the soldiers had waited. at that moment, peter realized what was happening.

最后的晚餐

耶稣在贝瑟尼郊区平静地度过了生命中最后几小时的自由行动时间。那天是逾越节,犹太人吃烤羔羊肉和无酵饼来庆祝这一节日。

耶稣让门徒进城到一家小酒馆订了房间及晚餐, 他们将在那里聚会。

夜色降临, 犹大若无其事地和其他人一起离开了家。他们下了橄榄山, 进了城, 发现一切均已备好。他们围着一张长桌坐了下来, 然后开始用餐。

可这并不是一顿让人感到愉快的晚餐。即将发生的事早已在这一小群忠实的教友中间投下了可怕的阴影, 他们感到了恐惧。

耶稣没怎么说话。其他人忧郁且安静地坐着。

最后, 彼得再也无法忍受, 脱口道出了大家的心声。 “ 老师, ”他说,“ 我们想知道, 您是否有充分的理由怀疑我们中间的一个? ” 耶稣轻声地回答:“ 是的。现在坐在这张桌子旁的, 你们中间的一人将给我们大家带来灾难。” 随后, 所有的门徒都站起来围在了他的四周, 声辩各自的清白。就在那一刻, 犹大悄悄溜出了房间。这下他们都知道要发生什么事了。他们再也无法呆在那个小房间里了。他们需要呼吸一些新鲜的空气, 就离开小酒馆, 走出大门, 返回橄榄山, 然后打开通往一个花园的边门。一个朋友告诉他们, 无论何时只要他们想单独呆一会, 都可以进那个花园。

那个花园叫客西马尼, 就在角落里榨油机的后面。

过了一会儿, 耶稣走开了。和他关系最近的三个门徒在不远处跟着他。

他转过身, 命令他的门徒等待并守护着他做祷告。做出最后决定的时刻来临了。虽然他仍有可能逃跑, 但那将意味着默认自己有罪和承认自己思想的失败。他独自呆在静悄悄的树林里, 作出了生前最英勇的斗争。他正值壮年。生活仍有很多希望。一旦敌人逮捕了他, 他将以一种很可怕的方式被处死。他做出了抉择。他不逃。他回到教友们中间。看! 他们都睡熟了。片刻之后, 整个花园一片喧哗。一群犹太教公会卫兵在犹大的带领下, 向这位先知冲过来。犹大就在最前面。他搂着老师并亲吻了他。这正是士兵们等待的信号。那一刻, 彼得终于明白发生了什么。

阅读导评

人的一生就像是道选择题, 而我们每个人, 无时无刻不在做出自己的选择, 以期达到所追求的境界。哈姆雷特在生死之间也曾犹豫过,“ 生还是死, 这是个问题。”耶稣在逃跑与留下之间, 选择了留下, 选择了承担责任。尽管这样做的代价是在痛苦中结束自己的生命, 然而他得到的却是自己的清白和坚贞不渝的宗教信仰以及他不曾预想到的对后世的深远影响。

阅读导释

1. 最后的晚餐, 讲述的是耶稣在逾越节的时候和他的12 个门徒聚餐时的情形。那天, 他被门徒犹大出卖, 后来被钉死在十字架上。达·芬奇的名画《最后的晚餐》描绘的就是这次聚餐时的情形。由于在最后的晚餐中, 犹大被认为是第13 个人, 因此现代英语国家对数字 “13”就很忌讳, 他们在请客时一定会避开这个数字, 既不会选13 日也不会请13 个人。

2. 这一小段主要是讲逾越节( passover) 的过法。犹太人吃烤羔羊肉和无酵饼庆贺。注意, 这里的observe 不是通常大家所说的“观察”或“ 评述”的意思, 而是“庆祝, 过( 节日、生日等) ”的意思, 等同于celebrate, 如: observe the national day ( 庆祝国庆) ; we always observe birthdays at home. ( 我们总是在家里过生日。)

3. 这个词是“无动于衷的, 满不在乎的, 泰然自若的”的意思。还可作形容词, 作“淡而无味的, 枯燥乏味的”解, 如:this is a bland story with little plot. ( 这是个缺乏情节而又枯燥乏味的故事。)

4. 指“ 脱口而出, 冲口说出”, 如: he blurted out the secret. ( 他不慎说出了秘密。)

5. 客西马尼, 地名, 耶路撒冷附近的一个小花园。在《圣经》中, 这是耶稣蒙难的地方, 故常被引作为“ 蒙难地, 蒙难时刻”。

6. 这句话即judas kiss 一词的来源。在《圣经》中犹大以亲吻的方式暗示卫兵抓住耶稣, 所以judas kiss 指“ 口蜜腹剑的伪善阴险行为”。与犹大有关的词语还有judas goat, 专指用于引领羊群到屠宰场的“ 头羊, 领头山羊”。

篇8：【大学英语六级经验】英语六级阅读高分应试技巧

快速阅读是大学英语六级考试改革后出现的新题型，是试卷中客观试题的主要组成部分，也是考生感到困难的试题之一，

1. 概述

大学英语六级考试从2006年6月开始在全国180所进行英语教学试点改革的高校中使用了新题型，并将于2006年12月面向全国的在校大学生全面采用六级考试的新题型。改革后的大学六级考试对考生的能力提出了更高的要求，新六级考试的内容也出现了一些变化，尤其是在阅读理解部分增设了快速阅读。本文来源:考试大网

要求考生在15分钟内阅读完一篇1000～1200词左右的文章并完成后面设置的10个问题，前7个是判断题。如果与文章内容相符，就选Y (for YES) --- if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage；不相符则选N (for NO) --- if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage；如果问题中所含的信息在原文中并未提及，则为NG (for NOT GIVEN) --- if the information is not given in the passage。这种考试类型--是非判断题--是雅思考试中的一个常见阅读考试题型，这就说明我们的四级考试逐渐向国际性的考试靠拢。后面3个问题是填空题，即根据句子的提示在原文中找出答案，填入空格即可---这沿袭了老式四级考题中的简答题的类型。该题型旨在测试考生在实际语言环境中查询有效信息的能力，这也反映出四级考试试图提升考生英语实际应用能力的改革方向。

2. 该题型的特点

所谓快速阅读，就是以较快的速度在规定的时间内有目的、有方法、高效率地阅读材料，以便从中准确地获得所需的信息。新四级的快速阅读试题的目的就是考察考生在短时间内获取篇章特定信息的能力，对于考生的阅读速度有较高的要求，但对于阅读的深度要求则相对较低。其文章和出题特点如下：

1）从样题和2006年6月的全真题来看，文章长度基本上是1000～1200词，通常会出现大标题和副标题（如果在今后的考试文章中没有副标题，就可以通过阅读各段的首句和尾句来推测文章某段落可能会涉及的内容），文中的句子结构并不复杂，但词汇量较大。

2）文章的选材注重时效性，现实性较强，选自英、美等国家出版的报刊文章和书籍，语言规范，表达生动，涉及最近的社会热点问题，如科普、环境、学术观点、经济、生活、文化等，通常不会涉及到政治、军事、尖端科技等内容，

体裁方面，从样题和全真题来看，都是说明文。样题介绍的是一种垃圾处理设施---垃圾填埋场(Landfill)；真题主要介绍的是美国的高速公路（Highways），从中我们可以得出一个结论，那就是快速阅读通常是比较客观的介绍或描述，而很少会涉及到作者的态度。可供选择阅读材料的来源有Time, Newsweek, China Daily, 21st Century等。平时在阅读这些报刊文章时，应注意选择一般性的题材，这样对应付快速阅读测试会有帮助。

3）判断正误题是若干个陈述句组成，要求根据原文所给的信息，判断每个陈述句是对(Yes)、错(No)、还是未提及（Not Given）。试题的题干长度适中，为20个词左右，以便于考生在短时间内理解题目，阅读时获取有效信息，迅速找到答案。这种题型的最大难度在于，选项间的混淆程度很深，在Yes和No之外还有第三种情况：Not Giv-en。所以，必须要把原文中相应的叙述找出来，看哪个选项是对原文的精确改写，是则为正确，否则为错误，但是在很多情况下似乎很难区分No和Not Given（这在后面会加以分析总结），因此考生不能凭印象做题，因为选项间的差异有时候可能就微小到一个介词、连词、冠词、副词或语气词上，更不能完全利用自己的知识背景做出想当然的判断，一切的判断都应以原文为基础。

4）后面的3个题是根据原文所提供的信息补充完整句子。通过对样卷和真题的分析，我发现这种题型的难度不大，句子填空题的答案都是原文中出现的原词，考生只需找到所需信息相应的地方，然后把它从原文中搬抄下来即可，基本上不需要改动原文信息。其次，所要填写的信息都在题干的最后，例如：全真题No.8 The greatest benefit brought about by the interstate system was ______. 样题和全真题中的其它填空题都是如此。第三，答案内容不是专有名词或名词短语，就是数字，从样题和全真题中还没有发现其他词性的单词作为答案出现。例如全真题No.8 的答案是名词短语per-sonal freedom of mobility；No.9 Trucks using the interstate highways deliver more than ______. 其答案是75 percent，是数字。第四，根据命题的标准，答案的长度一般在5个单词以内。第五，试题的题干长度也是为20个词左右。

5）通过研究和分析样题及全真题，我发现快速阅读的的出题规律是---出题的顺序与文章的篇章段落展开的顺序基本是一致的，即题目是按照文章的段落顺序给出的，其答案的顺序当然也是如此，例如第二题的答案在原文中出现的位置应在第一题的答案之后，依次类推。根据这一规律，考生可以快速确定答案的位置，以免重复阅读而浪费时间。
