在大學(xué)英語四級考試中，考生很有必要掌握一些長篇閱讀的答題小技巧。為此百分網(wǎng)小編為大家?guī)泶髮W(xué)英語四級考試長篇閱讀題的答題技巧。
大學(xué)英語四級長篇閱讀的答題小技巧
1.整體把握文章的脈絡(luò)至關(guān)重要。
段落信息匹配題的題目的順序與文章的行文順序完全不符，這就要求考生在閱讀文章時(shí)整體把握文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和脈絡(luò)，熟悉文章的寫作思路，基本能做到理解每題的中心思想后，能大體定位到文章的`相應(yīng)部分，而不是漫無目的地在全文的每個(gè)段落里搜尋。如樣題中的文章：首先引出話題;中間部分主要談?wù)搩煞矫娴膬?nèi)容—大學(xué)在全球網(wǎng)羅人才和開展工作，同時(shí)大學(xué)也在重塑研究方法;最后是大學(xué)全球化的影響和作用。把文章這樣分成四個(gè)部分以后，根據(jù)每個(gè)題目的內(nèi)容，就可以找到大體的位置。
2.準(zhǔn)確理解題目的內(nèi)容是前提。
每一道題都是原文信息的再現(xiàn)或轉(zhuǎn)述，只有理解了題目所述內(nèi)容，才能做好后面的段落信息定位。理解題目內(nèi)容的關(guān)鍵是：抓句子的主干。冗長的句子，只要抓住了其主干，就不難理解句子的主要含義了。
3.找準(zhǔn)題目中的定位關(guān)鍵詞是關(guān)鍵。
每一道題都是原文信息的再現(xiàn)或轉(zhuǎn)述，只要找準(zhǔn)關(guān)鍵詞才能準(zhǔn)確定位到原文的段落中。關(guān)鍵詞多為：a. 名詞或名詞短語，這類詞是題目和文章談?wù)摰膶ο�，同義替換的可能性較小，是比較可靠的定位關(guān)鍵詞，如樣題中第46題中的American universities, global careers, internship 都可以在原文中直接找到;b.數(shù)字，如數(shù)量、年份等，這類詞同義替換的可能性非常小，是較理想的定位關(guān)鍵詞，如樣題中第47題中的3.9 percent, 是原文信息的再現(xiàn);c. 專有名詞，如人名、地名、機(jī)構(gòu)名、特殊物質(zhì)等，這類詞幾乎沒有同義替換或轉(zhuǎn)述的可能性，是非常理想的定位關(guān)鍵詞，如樣題中第55題中的Danah Boyd就是一個(gè)專有名詞，可以在原文中直接找到。
大學(xué)英語四級長篇閱讀的解題步驟
1、掃描題干，劃出關(guān)鍵詞。選項(xiàng)不要看，用時(shí)越短越好。
2、通讀全文，抓住中心。
3、仔細(xì)審題，返回原文。關(guān)鍵：定位。
定位的三大原則：
(1)關(guān)鍵詞定位原則：由題干出發(fā)，尋找題干中的關(guān)鍵詞，首選大寫字母、數(shù)字等，其次是表時(shí)間地點(diǎn)人物的詞。
(2)自然段定位原則：出題順序與文章段落順序大體一致。
(3)出題點(diǎn)定位原則：答案一定蘊(yùn)涵在有特殊標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號、句式列舉、強(qiáng)轉(zhuǎn)折邏輯關(guān)系的地方。
4、重疊選項(xiàng)，斟酌答案。
(1)縮小范圍的是答案。
(2)擴(kuò)大范圍的不是答案。
(3)原文和選項(xiàng)有交叉內(nèi)容的不是答案。
(4)不相關(guān)的不能選。即，只要選項(xiàng)中有文章中未出現(xiàn)內(nèi)容就錯(cuò)。注意，將文章中的每一個(gè)選項(xiàng)帶回文章一一查對，不要憑印象猜測。

Passage Two
Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.
Some of the world’s most significant problems never hit headlines. One example comes from agriculture. Food riots and hunger make news. But the trend lying behind these matters is rarely talked about. This is the decline in the growth in yields of some of the world’s major crops. A new study by the University of Minnesota and McGill University in Montreal looks at where, and how far, this decline is occurring.
The authors take a vast number of data points for the four most important crops: rice, wheat, corn and soyabeans(大豆). They find that on between 24% and 39% of all harvested areas, the improvement in yields that took place before the 1980s slowed down in the 1990s and 2000s.
There are two worrying features of the slowdown. One is that it has been particularly sharp in the world’s most populous(人口多的)countries, India and China. Their ability to feed themselves has been an important source of relative stability both within the countries and on world food markets. That self-sufficiency cannot be taken for granted if yields continue to slow down or reverse.
Second, yield growth has been lower in wheat and rice than in corn and soybeans. This is problematic because wheat and rice are more important as foods, accounting for around half of all calories consumed. Corn and soyabeans are more important as feed grains. The authors note that “we have preferentially focused our crop improvement efforts on feeding animals and cars rather than on crops that feed people and are the basis of food security in much of the world.”
The report qualifies the more optimistic findings of another new paper which suggests that the world will not have to dig up a lot more land for farming in order to feed 9 billion people in 2050, as the Food and Agriculture Organisation has argued.
Instead, it says, thanks to slowing population growth, land currently ploughed up for crops might be able to revert(回返)to forest or wilderness.This could happen. The trouble is that the forecast assumes continued improvements in yields, which may not actually happen.
