Whether they’re project documents, trade journals, blogs, business books or ebooks, most of us read regularly as part of our jobs, and to develop our skills and knowledge.
But do you ever read what should be a useful document, yet fail to gain any helpful information from it? Or, re-read something several times to get a full understanding of the content? If so, look at the following strategies (策略) that will help you read more effectively.
●Think About What You Want to Know
Before you start reading anything, ask yourself why you’re reading it. Are you reading with a purpose, or just for pleasure? What do you want to know after you’ve read it? Once you know your purpose, you can examine the resource (資源) to see whether it’s going to help you.
Ask yourself whether the resource meets your needs, and try to work out if it will give you the right amount of knowledge. If you think that the resource isn’t consummate, don’t waste time reading it.
●Know How Deeply to Study the Material
Where you only need the shallowest knowledge of a subject, you can skim material. Here you read only chapter headings, introductions, and summaries.
If you need a moderate (中等的) level of information on a subject, then you can scan the text. This is when you read the chapter introductions and summaries in detail. You can then speed read the contents of the chapters, picking out and understanding key words and concepts.
Only when you need full knowledge of a subject is it worth studying the text in detail (細(xì)節(jié)). Here it’s best to skim the material first to get an overview of the subject. This gives you an understanding of its structure, into which you can then fit the detail gained from a full reading of the material.
1.Why should we know our purpose before reading?
|
A.Because we can develop our skills and knowledge. |
|
B.Because we can get a full understanding of the content. |
|
C.Because we can avoid re-reading something several times. |
|
D.Because we can check it out whether the material will be helpful. |
2.What does the underlined word “consummate” in the 5th paragraph mean?
|
A.Legal. |
B.Natural. |
C.Perfect. |
D.Formal. |
3. According to the depth to study the material, how many reading strategies are mentioned?
|
A.2. |
B.3. |
C.4. |
D.5. |
4.The best title for this passage should be ______.
|
A.Reading Strategies |
|
B.Think About What You Want to Know |
|
C.Know How Deeply to Study the Material |
|
D.How to Develop our Skills and Knowledge |

It’s really true what people say about English politeness: it’s everywhere. When squeezing (擠過去) past someone in a narrow passage, people say “sorry”. When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing these things. After all, squeezing past others is sometimes unavoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started traveling to the British Isles, and here are some more polite ways of interacting (交往) with people in UK.
People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time. When people buy something in a shop, customer and shop assistant in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be exceptional to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, as opposite to Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.
Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize (批評(píng)) others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers emphasized several times but none of their explanations were intended as criticism. It has been my impression that by avoiding criticism, English people are making an effort to make others feel comfortable. This also is showed in other ways. British men still open doors for women, and British men are more likely to treat women to a meal than German men. However, I do need to point out here that this applies to English men a bit more than it would to Scottish men! Yes, the latter are a bit tightfisted.
1.What is the author’s attitude towards English politeness?
|
A.He thinks it is unnecessary. |
B.He thinks little of it. |
|
C.He appreciates it very much. |
D.He thinks it goes too far. |
2.What can be inferred from the passage?
|
A.German men never treat a woman to dinner. |
|
B.The author think it’s unnecessary to say “thank you” to the bus driver. |
|
C.In Germany, employers often say “thank you” to employees for their job. |
|
D.Germans think it is unnecessary to thank workers because payment is enough. |
3.We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men ______.
|
A.like to fight with each other |
|
B.treat women in a polite way |
|
C.a(chǎn)re as generous as English men |
|
D.a(chǎn)re unwilling to spend money for women |
4.The author develops the text through the method of ______.
|
A.making comparisons |
B.telling stories |
|
C.giving reasons |
D.giving examples |

You’re standing in the dairy section at the grocery store, searching for your favorite brand. Suddenly, you catch a smell of chocolate cookies. You forget about dairy and head for the bakery (烘烤食品) section. Guess what? You just walked into an odor (氣味) trap (陷阱)! The odor was cooked up by scientists in a lab.
For years, scientists have been studying the special powers of smell. They found that more than our other senses, smell changes our mood and helps us remember things.
So companies have begun spending thousands of dollars to scent (使充滿香味) entire stores. Artificial (人造的) scents are being used to lead customers by the nose. These smells help to get people inside and put them in the mood to buy. They even make customers remember the store later, so they’ll come back for more. Also, many companies have smartly made use of product smells. A company added lemon fragrance to its dish cleaner. They wanted people to think the soap contained “natural” cleaners. It worked!
New uses for smells are being created every day. One bank, for example, gives customers coupons (優(yōu)惠券) advertising car loans (貸款). To get people to take out a loan, bank officials hope to coat these coupons with the fresh leather smell of a new car. In Australia, telephone offices are putting sweat odor on unpaid bills. Since some people sweat when they’re scared, this smell might remind them of when they were frightened. And they’ll pay the bills right away!
What lies ahead for our noses? Smell scientists are working on some pretty far-out ideas. Would you believe TV sets that produce smells? Or how about scent diets? Certain food smells will fool your stomach into thinking it’s full. Alarm clocks will scent your bedroom with a strong pleasant smell designed to wake you up. Scientists are even working on ways to keep garbage from smelling. Researchers expect scents to help students make more sense of what they’re learning.
And just think. Someday soon, even your homework may smell nice!
1.How do sales methods affect customers in the stores?
|
A.They change customers’ preferences. |
|
B.They persuade customers to use credit cards. |
|
C.They make customers avoid bad and unsafe products. |
|
D.They influence customers to make unplanned purchases. |
2.Why do telephone offices put sweat odor on unpaid bills?
|
A.Because the sweat odor is a reminder of terrifying experience. |
|
B.Because the sweat odor can change people’s attitude. |
|
C.Because most people don’t think much of sweating. |
|
D.Because many people dislike paying bills. |
3.What does the author mean by saying “Someday soon, even your homework may smell nice!”?
|
A.Students would benefit more from smell research. |
|
B.Students would be more willing to do homework. |
|
C.Smell research would develop beyond our imagination. |
|
D.Smell research would make great differences to our life. |
4. Why does the author write this passage?
|
A.To encourage the store owners to use smells. |
|
B.To expose wrong practices by smell scientists. |
|
C.To inform the readers of an interesting subject. |
|
D.To blame the advertisers that use smells to sell. |

閱讀下面短文并回答問題,然后將答案寫到答案卡相應(yīng)的位置上(請(qǐng)注意詞數(shù)要求)。
For most Americans, a clean glass of water is just a faucet (水龍頭) away. But for many of the world’s poorest people, it’s hard to get.
2 On Wednesday, the United Nations (UN) marked World Water Day by trying to cut the number of people without good drinking water — one billion human beings worldwide — in half. In the next ten years, the UN will work with governments around the world to reduce the shortage.
Without clean water nearby, many people use water that is not clean. In India, many people bathe and wash their clothes in rivers that are polluted by human waste.
According to the UN, not having enough clean water and sanitation (衛(wèi)生設(shè)施) causes more than three million deaths a year.
“The links between water and human health are powerful,” said Dr Lee Jong Wook, director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO). “We cannot live without clean water.”
In fact, the International Federation of the Red Cross said that quick reaction after last year’s Asian tsunami (海嘯) had stopped disease. The agency provided clean water to nearly 500,000 people in Indonesia and Sri Lanka after the tsunami.
World Water Day was first celebrated in 1993. Since then, it is celebrated each year on March 22.
