四六级阅读技巧

阅读方法和做题方法概括四句话：

1、扫读题干关键词 2、浏览原文作标记 3、比较选项得答案 4、迅速排除省力气 其中核心是浏览原文作标记需要标记的地方：
1指示性的具体信息 如时间、人物、数字 、地点
2与文章结构有关的中心信息 包括：主题句 转折词（but however yet出现这几个词的时候一般都会考到）

必须知道的技巧：

（一）答案项中有绝对语气词的一般不是正确答案项。这些语气词有： must， always， never， the most， all， only， have to， any，no， very，completely， none， hardly等。

例（1） One of the great changes brought about by the knowledge society is that _____ ．
A．the difference between the employee and the employer has become insignificant．
B．people‘s traditional concepts about work no longer hold true．
C．most people have to take part－time jobs．
D．people have to change their jobs from time to time．
分析：四个选项中，C、D两项中都含有“have to”，语气太绝对化，一般被排除。考生在剩下两项中进行选择，就大大降低了难度。
例（2）The main idea of this passage is that _____ ．
A．better use of green space facilities should be made so as to　improve the quality of our life．
B．attention must be directed to the improvement of recreative possibilities．
C．the urban environment is providing more recreation activities than it did many years ago．
D．priority must be given to the development of obligatory　activities．
分析：B、D两项中均有must be，语气太绝对化，故一般被排除。考生结合短文内容在剩下两项中进行选择，命中率就极高了。

（二）选项中含有不十分肯定的语气词一般是正确答案项。这些语气词有： can， could， may， should， usually， might， most，more or less， relatively， be likely to， possible， whether or， not necessarily 等。

例（1）It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes ．
A．Americans are more ambitious than people in other countries
B．in many countries success often depends on one‘s social status
C．American businesses are more democratic than those in other countries
D．businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in America
