如何提升你的英語閱讀的五大技巧

　　當(dāng)你必須要閱讀英文時，你是否冒冷汗呢？剛開始閱讀一篇文章夾雜著不認(rèn)識的詞匯是會有壓迫感的，甚至對于非常有自信的讀者也是一樣。下面有五個有效的技巧可以幫助你的閱讀成為很有收獲的經(jīng)驗而非患得患失。

　　事前的準(zhǔn)備

　　不要匆忙的就直接閱讀。在你開始閱讀前，先看一下標(biāo)題及圖片。這將給予你對于主題有很好的想法 , 并想想你已經(jīng)得知的訊息。下一步，推測一下這篇文章在說什么,想想你要學(xué)什么，然后寫下大概遇到的問題。為閱讀自我準(zhǔn)備是一種讓你預(yù)測到下一頁的方式。

　　第一次的接觸

　　現(xiàn)在你已經(jīng)對于主題有一般的了解，你可以開始你的閱讀了。開始后就不要停止閱讀全篇文章。你目前不需要擔(dān)心細(xì)節(jié), 剛開始的時候，你應(yīng)該試著抓到主旨在說什么, 這就是skimming。當(dāng)你閱讀完全部文章后，想想看你理解并且記住了多少。

　　詳細(xì)的閱讀

　　還記得你先前寫下的那些問題嗎？現(xiàn)在正是尋找答案的時候了。請再閱讀一下文章，但是這一次需要慢一點(diǎn)及小心一點(diǎn)了。尋找一下跟你的問題有關(guān)的任何詞匯或句子。這就是scanning。如果你看到任何東西你認(rèn)為有興趣或是重要的，那就用筆注記起來。一旦你完成了，你對于文章應(yīng)該更了解。

　　詞匯、詞匯、詞匯！

　　你不需要了解每一個詞匯來了解文章在說什么。找出你不知道的關(guān)鍵字或句子然后試著寫下來。但是請不要現(xiàn)在就拿起字典來！試著利用文章上下文來猜詞匯。在你已經(jīng)猜過之后，那就拿起字典來查看你到底猜對程度多少。你一定會感到莫名的驚喜的！

　　最后的閱讀

　　在這個時候，你應(yīng)該更清楚這篇文章在說什么了。再閱讀一次。你現(xiàn)在可以專注任何陌生的文法架構(gòu)或句子型態(tài)上。當(dāng)你完成一切動作后，坐下來想一想你今天學(xué)到的東西�，F(xiàn)在再看看其實(shí)沒有那么難嘛，不是嗎？

　　翻譯：

　　Do you break out into a sweat when you have to read in English? Staring at a page full of unfamiliar words can be overwhelming, even for the most confident of readers. Here are five useful tips that can help make reading a rewarding experience rather than a dreaded chore.

　　Be prepared

　　Never rush straight into reading. Before you begin, look at the title and any pictures. This will give you a good idea of the topic. Think about what you already know. Next, predict what the reading will be about. Think about what you want to learn and write down any questions you may have. Preparing yourself for the reading in this way will get you started before the first page is even turned.

　　At first sight

　　Now that you've got a general idea of the topic, you can begin. Read the entire text over once without stopping. Don't worry about the details just yet. In the beginning, all you should be trying to do is get a feeling for the main idea. This is called skimming. When you're done, think about how much you've understood and remembered.

　　It's all in the details

　　Remember those questions you wrote down before? Now it's time to find the answers. Read the text again, but this time, read it slowly and carefully. Look for any words or phrases that relate to your questions. This is called scanning. If you come across anything else that's interesting and important, underline that too. Once you're finished, you should have a fuller understanding of the text.

　　Words, words, words!

　　You don't have to understand every single word to understand the text. Pick out key words or phrases you don't know and write them down. But don't reach for the dictionary just yet! Try to guess the word's meaning from context - the words or phrases around it. After you've taken a guess, go ahead and use the dictionary to see how close you were. You might be pleasantly surprised!

　　Final reading

　　By this time, you should be familiar with the text. Read it one more time. You can now focus on any unusual grammar structures or sentence styles. When you've finished, sit back and think about everything you've just learned. That wasn't so difficult, was it?
