英语二阅读关键词
㈠ 哪里2016考研英语二阅读理解答案解析
2016考研英语二阅读答案如下:
21、[B]remodel the way of thinking
根据题干定位在第二段。典型的欲扬先抑,首段说coding classs不重要arent essential, 第二段引出中心Cortina认为较早的接触电脑是有益的beneficial,紧接着具体说明好处在于,他们就学习了电脑知识就懂得如何去开发手机应用程序,创作艺术,或者验证假设。答案关键句在于第三句的比较:It’s not as hard for them to transform their thought processes as it is for older students.对于他们来说与大孩子相比,改变思维并不难。综上所述,[B]remodel the way of thinking是对原文“transform their thought”的同义改写。对比处为命题点。
22、[D] interest
根据题干“in delivering lessons for high-schoolers”、“Flatiron ”,定位到第四段。其中deliver是gear的同义改写。Lesson是curriculum的同义改写。The high-schoolers get the same curriculum, but “we try to gear lessons toward things they’re interested in”(高中生们上同样的课程,但是“我们力图以他们的兴趣来调整课程”),说明该校开设课程是主要考虑到“学生的兴趣”,故选[B] interest。
23、[A] help students learn other computer languages
根据Deborah Seehorn 定位到文章第五段最后一句But the skills they learn —..... — apply to any coding language,。他们所学的技能......可以应用到任何编码语言中去。选项[A]help首先体现了文章主体感情色彩beneficial,computer languages对应 coding language。
24、[C] become better prepared for the digitalized world
根据题干关键词“the last paragraph”回文定位在最后一段。最后一段第一句指出Flatiron的学生不会全都进入IT界。因此马上可以排除A. compete with a future army of programmers和B. stay longer in the information technology instry(都在谈IT行业)第三句进一步指出这些学生将会一生“被电脑包围”(对应the digitalized world),第四句继续表明态度,越早学习电脑思维方式越好(且又一次进行比较the earlier the better),[C] become better prepared for the digitalized world是对上述内容的概况总结。
25、[B] persuade
根据题干关键信息“coax”(Line 4, Para.6),定位到最后一段第四行how to coax the machine into procing what they want本文通篇态度明确,对电脑级相关知识都是强烈的正面态度,只有A选项(“劝说,劝诱”)带入后符合中心思想:其他选项;[B] frighten“吓唬,使惊吓”[C] misguide“误导”,都是明显负面感情色彩,故排除;[D] challenge“挑战”,即“挑战电脑去生产他们想要的”,与A比较后顺利排除。
㈡ 英语二如何复习
我去年考上去的一所211的研究生,英语二72分,超出国家线分。我主要看真题,模拟题什么的不做。下面我讲讲复习注意事项:
第一部分单词
单词复习,可不必花太多的时间,可以一边做题一边背诵单词,花一两个月的时间专门来记单词是很不值得的。记单词的时候,形容词和副词要多花一点精力,对于能在作文中用的单词,要特别记下来,比如magnitude,elusive,这些单词在你写作文,做对比分析时非常有用。
第二部分 阅读
1 做题要看表,给自己足够的压迫感,很多人平时做题散漫惯了,到了考试时一团糟。
2 每篇阅读控制在8至10分钟,且保证命中率,也就是说,开考一个小时内你应该把所有阅读都搞定
3.七选五匹配题,要先在选项中圈出关键词,然后回到原文,一一对应
4.完形填空考察语法和词汇量,以及语境的结合,遇到考察实词的选项,则需要看上下文语境以及通篇的褒贬色彩,这样才可能定位准确。此外,一般要花时间通读原文,这样可以把握文章的脉络和主题,以防犯以偏概全的错误,一错一大片。
5.无论做何种形式的阅读题,不要回头看,略读的速度可以快一些。省略细枝末节,尽可能地关注一些否定,转折处,开头结尾,这些往往是阅读出题的地方。当你发现你很难找到出题的地方在哪,你就看这些对比,转折,以及具有强烈感情色彩的形容词,副词等,比如essential,indispensable ,quite necessary,opposite,这些词都暗含某种观点,某种倾向
第三部分 写作
1.写作的话,平时要多背诵一些高级词汇,你比如许多 a multitude of ,multitudinous,many a 非常地,有tremendously,terrifically,exceedingly,特别注意的是,你要积累很多表示相同意思的词汇(尤其是形容词,副词)。此外,你要积累一些能够代替常用表达法的词汇,比如should可以用be expected to,be supposed to等,will可以用may well ,is likely to代替,擅长用excel in,be expert at 代替等等。这样写起来有得挑选,避免重复,让文章血肉丰满,给老师一种你词汇量特丰富的感觉,分数自然不会低。
2平时要形成一定的写作套路,这样写起来就快,给自己争取时间。比如用什么样的句式,句子来引出对比,总结,我记得我当时引出比较,对比的句子是:
Tremendously different from them is that we place a top priority……后面加从句。这句话的语法是:表语前置引起倒装,把主语部分放在后面,避免头重脚轻。总结,我用的是altogether,而不用人人都会的in brief,in short之类俗套的表达法。
3做完一份真题,要学会积累文章中一些很有哲理,或者非常地道的句子,比如happiness doesn‘t necessarily reside in/ consist in wealth and strength 。 life is a mixture of sorrow and happiness(生活充满了痛苦和幸福)。life is mixture of challenges combined with opportunities(生活中充满了机遇和挑战)。

However, critics say the big companies use such deals to buy their most threatening potential competitors before their businesses have a chance to gain momentum,in some cases as part of a"buy and kill "tactic to simply close them down.

㈣ 英语二2021年真题解析-阅读1
第1段:员工有必要接受“再培训”。
1、"Reskilling" is something 【 that sounds like a buzzword】 but is actually a requirement { if we plan to have a future 【 in which a lot of would-be workers do not get left behind】} 。在培训听上去是一个流行语,但如果我们希望未来的员工不被时代抛弃的话,这实际上是一个必要条件 。——“再培训”是员工进步的必要条件
2、 We know(that) {【we are moving into a period 】(where the jobs in demand will change rapidly), as will the requirements of the jobs 【that remain】.}我们知道人们正在进入一个工作需求将发生迅速变化的时期,剩余岗位的需求也会很快改变。 —— 工作需求正发生迅速变化。
as引导方式状语,“就像”,后面倒装。正常语序是the requirements of the jobs that remain will (change rapidly)
3、 ⭐ Research by the World Economic Forum finds that on average 42 per cent of the"core skills" within job roles will change by 2022. That is a very short timeline.
世界经济论坛发现42%的核心技能,赋予的工作角色将要被改变。在2022年世界经济论坛的研究发现,到2020年工作岗位中平均有42%的核心技能将发生改变。剩下的时间不多了。 ——通过世界经济论坛佐证,“员工需要新的工作技能”
第2段:谁来为员工“再培训”买单?
1、The question of who should pay for reskilling is a thorny one.
这个问题谁来买单这个重塑技能是一个棘手的问题。
2、 ⭐ For indivial companies, the temptation is always to let go of workers 【whose skills are no longer in demand 】and replace them with those 【whose skills are.(省略 in demand) 】
对于个别公司来说,他们喜欢的做法总是抛弃那些技能不再有用的员工,取而代之的是那些具备符合要求技能的员工。
3、(转折句)That does not always happen. 这也不经常发生。
4、 ⭐ AT&T is often given as the gold standard of a company 【 that decided to do a massive reskilling program rather than go with a fire-and-hire strategy. 】
有的公司决定进行大规模再培训项目,而非采取解雇和雇佣的策略。美国电话电报公司就经常被视作这类公司的典范。我们找到第2题关键词,但是这个例子本身。例证题是要去找的外面去找第三句是转折句,所以我们找第二句,第二句是跟第四句的反义。
5、Other companies had also pledged to create their own plans. 其他公司也承诺会制定自己的计划。
6、When the skills mismatch is in the broader economy, though(转折) ,the focus usually turns to government to handle.然而当技能不匹配的现象出现在更广泛的经济领域时,焦点常常会转向政府,并由其处理。
7、 ⭐ Efforts in Canada and elsewhere have been arguably languid at best, and have given us a situation 【where we frequently hear of employers (begging for workers)】,even at times and in regions【 where unemployment is high】.可以这么说。加拿大和其他地方付出的努力,充其量还是不够。含这也使我们经常听到雇主央求招聘员工的情况发生,即使在失业率高的时期和地区也是如此。
languid表示“慵懒,慢悠悠”即努力不够,这词一般不认识考上下文。 and have givenus asituation,and 说明与上句并列意思基本一致,说明解决问题的努力(efforts)还不够,要不怎会出现招工难?
第3段:高失业率下依然存在劳动力短缺现象
1、With the pandemic,unemployment is very high indeed.
随着流行疾病失业的人确实越来越高却确实非常高
2、In February,at 3.5 percent and 5.5 percent respectively,unemployment rates in Canada and United States were at generational lows and worker shortages were everywhere.
二月加拿大和美国的失业率分别为3.5%和5.5降到了代际低点,劳动力短缺的现象随处可见。
3、As of May, those rates had spiked up to 13.3 per cent and 13.7 per cent,and although many worker shortages had disappeared, not all had done so.
截至五月,两国失业率已经分别飙升到13%和13.7%,尽管许多工作的短缺情况消失了,但也并非所有行业都解决了这一问题。
4、 ⭐ In the medical field, to take an obvious example,the pandemic meant that there were still clear shortages of doctors, nurses and other medical personnel.
一个明显的例子,就是在医疗领域,疫情的爆发意味着医生护士和其他医务人员仍存在着大量短缺。
第4段:开展再培训的必要性
1、Of course,it is not like you can take and unemployed waiter and train him to be a doctor in a few weeks.
当然这并不是说你能在几周之内把一个失业的服务员培训他们成为一名医生
2、But even if you cannot close that gap,may be you can close others,and doing so would be to the benefit of all concerned.
但即便不能填补这个空缺,也许还在其他方面,可以有所突破。这样对所有的相关人员,都有好处。
3、 ⭐ That seems to be the case in Sweden: 【When forced to furlough 90 per cent of their cabin staff】 , Scandinavian Airlines decided to start up a short retraining program 【 that reskilled the laid-off workers to support hospital staff.】
瑞典似乎就有这样的情况,90%的空乘人员被迫休假后,北欧航空决定启动一项再培训的项目,重新培训这些失业的员工以支援医院的工作。
4、The effort was a collective one and involved other companies as well as a Swedish university. 这是一次集体的行动,其他公司和一所瑞典的大学都参与到了其中。
21.Research by the World Economic Forum Suggests _____.世界经济论坛的研究 表明 了?
[A] an urgent demand for new job skills (“既然42%要变” ,那么对新的工作技能迫切的需求)
[B] an increase in full-time employment 无中生有
[C] a steady growth of job opportunities 无中生有
[D]a controversy about the"core skills" 原文是 will change,并没有说“争议”
答案∶ A

[A] The characteristics of reskilling in programs 在培训的项目特点 无中生有
[B] The importance of staff appraisal standards 员工评价标准的重要性 无中生有
[C] An immediate need for government support 干扰项出自第6句,though转折了,故与A无关
[D]An alternative to the five-and-hire standards 解雇和雇佣策略之外的另一种选择 good
答案∶D
23.Efforts to resolve the skills mismatch in Canada___. 细节题(稍难)
在加拿大解决技能不匹配问题 努力
[A] have appeared to be insufficient 似乎还不够 注意题目问的是对“努力”的评价

Section II Reading Comprehension
Part A
Text 1
21、【答案】[A] offered greater relaxation than the workplace
【解析】事实细节题。该题干问:之前的研究认为家是……。历型根据题干,该题答案定位在首段首句。首句大致意思为“一项新的研究表明,与绝大部分研究相反,实际上,人们在家里的压力要大于工作。”由此可知,以往的研究正好跟最新研究相反,即人们在家里的压力小于工作。纵观各选项,选项A意为:与工作场所相比,能提供更多的休闲;与文章表述一致,为正确答案。
22、【答案】[C ] childless husbands
【解析】事实细节题。文章第二段第三句和第四句提到“It is men not women, who report being happier at home than at work…, but more so for nonparents.”即“研究发现是男人,而不是女人,在家比在工作中更高兴。更令人吃惊的是,研究发现,这种情况对于有孩子和没有孩子都是这样,尤其是对于没有孩子的。”所以综合对比后,选择C。
23、【答案】[D] they are both bread winners and housewives
【解析】推理判断题。文章第三段中提到“For many men, the end of the workday is …, with the blurring of role……”. 意思是“对于男人来说,一天的工作结束后,是他们休息的时候,但是对于女人来说,离开办公室之后,还有很多的家务活”。由此可以推出,“The blurring of working women’s roles” 指的是“既要在职场打拼也要做很多家务的女性”。所以综合判定后确定D为正确答案。
24、【胡辩答案】[C] earnings
【解析】词义句意题。文章第四段第一句提出“在工作中,大家都知道挣钱,他们做工作就是为了家庭收入”。紧接着第二句给出“这些雇员付出体力和脑力的劳动,就是为了得到能够维持他们生活的必须收入”。结合上下文,moola应该对应原文中的“income”,表示他们挣得的收入。故C正确。
25、【答案】[A] division of labor at home is seldom clear-cut
【解析】事实细节题。根据题干关键词“The home front”可以回文定位在原文最后一段。最后一段第一句指出“然而,人们对于大后方(家庭)就没有那么清楚了”,接下来的一句进一步指出“Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically…”(家务活的分工很少清清楚楚),A项中的“seldom”同意置换原文中的“Rare”, “clear-cut”同意置换原文的“clinically”,故A项正确。
Text 2
26、【答案】[D] missed its original purpose
【解析】根据题干关键词recruiting more first-generation students回文定位到第一段的第四句,然后一一比对选项,“rather than close an achievement gap based on social class”排除选项B,选项A和C是无关选项,由第四句话中This has created “a paradox” in that recruiting first-generation students…与选项D “missed its original purpose”是同义替换,paradox的意思是“自相矛盾,似是而非的观点”,所以正确答案为D。
27、【答案】[C] the problem is solvable
【解析】根据题干信息“research article are optimistic because…裤烂缺…”可以回文定位到文章第二段第一句“But the article is actually quite optimistic, as it outlines a potential solution to this problem”。As引导的原因状语从句是题干答案,跟C选“the problem is solvable”重合,因此选C。
28、【答案】[C] are in need of financial support
【解析】根据题干信息most first-generation students...定位第三段最后一句中,“most of first-generation students were recipients of Pell Grants(佩尔奖学金),a federal grant for undergraates with financial need",可知答案为C,其中in need of和with...need对应,financial support 和financial相对应。
29、【答案】[D] are inexperienced in handling their issues at college
【解析】根据题干关键词the author of the paper回文定位到文章第四段第一句“their thesis ...that face most college students”。这句话中明确说到第一代学生缺乏处理一些问题的实际经验,与选项D语义相符,其中are inexperienced与原文的lacking in practical knowledge对应,handling their issues与how to deal with the issues对应,at college与that face most college students对应。
30、【答案】[B] colleges are partly responsible for the problem in question
【解析】根据题干关键词infer from the last paragraph回文定位到文章最后一段,这是一个段落推理题,可以通过寻找段落中心的方式来解。最后一段第一句和第二句是并列关系,均提出第一代学生中存在的与社会阶层有关的问题。第三句以一个because所引导的原因状语从句点明中心,明确该问题的来源是美国高校未承认社会阶层对学生教育经历的影响,因此总结出来可知,选项B正确,说明出现了相应问题,高校应该担负一部分责任。
Text 3
31、【答案】[A]more emotional
【解析】细节题。题干中的office language对应文章中的lingua franca of corporate(公司通用语),题干中的has become对应文章中的has gotten,所以答案对应文章中的more emotional and much more right-brained。所以答案A more emotional。本题的易错答案是 more objective。文章中的objectives是名词“目标,话题”的意思。
32、【答案】[C] sports culture
【解析】细节题。本题的答案可以从第二段的第二句到第四句中得出。这几句话都是在举例子,作为论据出现来论证第一句话。第二句话中出现了sports,第三句话中出现了coach和team,第四句话中出现了coach和team,win,所有的这些词都与运动相关,所以答案选C sports culture。
33、【答案】[D] strengthen employee loyalty
【解析】细节题。本题题干中还出现了believe这一观点动词,根据题干中的importation of terminology可以定位到第三段的第二句话,但是这句话属于论据,其论点是第一句话。本句中出现are intended to表示目的,对应题干中的aims to,句子出现了increase allegiance to the firm,对应D strengthen employee loyalty,表示“加强员工的忠诚度”。
34、【答案】[A] voices for working women
【解析】推理题。根据题干中的Lean In可以定位到第四段的第二句话。这句话中出现了1990s和“mommy wars”也是明显的论据,所以推理的核心论点是前面的第一句话。第一句话中出现了work-life balance,第二句话中出现了mommy wars,结合二者可以推理出这句话谈论的是工作中对于女性的不公平。所以答案选voices for working women(为职业女性申辩)。
35、【答案】[D] regular people mock it but accept it
【解析】细节题。根据题干的关键词可以定位到最后一段的第一句话。要注意这句话的结构。本句是一个转折句,尽管大家取笑office speak,但是…。转折之后表示的是人们对它的认可,A Managers …avoid it态度与文章不符。B中的linguists 在文章中没有提到。C中的Companies find it to fundamental,属于推理过度,文章说的是depend on,依靠并不说明fundamental根本的。
Text 4
36、【答案】[B] the increase of part-time jobs
【解析】本题为细节题。根据关键词“job pictures, neglected”可以回文定位到第二段第一句话“the jobs picture ...was largely overlooked”,其中neglected是overlooked的同义替换。并且此句有明显的命题点“however”。第二句具体指出被忽略的部分是“there was a big jump in the number of people who report voluntarily working part-time.”,即有大量的人自愿从事兼职工作。故正确答案为B。其中increase是原文jump的同义替换,voluntary part-time jobs是voluntarily working part-time的同义转述。
37、【答案】[C] cannot get their hands on full-time jobs
【解析】根据题干中的关键词“many people work part-time”可以定位到第二段第五句话“many people who work part-time jobs actually want full-time jobs”。由此句可知,那些从事兼职工作的人实际想拥有全日制工作。接着第六句明确指出他们从事兼职工作的原因:they take part-time because this is all they can get。言外之意是说,人们目前只能得到兼职工作,而无法获得全职工作。故正确答案为C。
38、【答案】[B] shows a general tendency of decline
【解析】通过题干中的involuntary part-time employment可以将该题定位在文章第二段。该段倒数第二句表明“这种非自愿参加兼职工作在六月份是呈现增长的,但是总趋势是下降的”。故B选项(呈现出一种普遍下降的趋势)正确。
39、【答案】[B] employment is no longer a precondition to get insurance
【解析】通过题干中with Obamacare可以将该题定位在全文最后一句。该句表明,就业和保险之间不再有关联。而从上一句可以看出,之前很多人想要找一份提供保险的全职工作来养活自己和家人。可见,之前,就业就意味着能得到保险。而它们之间的关系不复存在,即雇佣不再是得到保险的前提条件。可见,B选项正确。
40、【答案】[A] employment in the US
【解析】该题考察的是文章主旨大意。文章首段指出目前的失业率呈现出下降的趋势,而接下来的第二段提出在这种失业率下降的好现象中,我们忽略了那些自愿(voluntary)参加兼职工作的人。第三段就自愿兼职工作者和非自愿兼职工作者的区别展开描述。最后两段表明,那些自愿参加兼职工作的人是因为有了一项名为Obamacare的政策,该政策旨在使那些没有全职工作的人也有可能获得保险,从而提升就业率。可见,全文都是围绕美国的就业形势展开讨论。故A选项正确。
Part B
41、【答案】[D] Most of your fears are unreal
【解析】本段中出现了多次词义复现,如Fear is not real以及fears are just the proct of our luxuriant imagination(恐惧只是丰富想象的产物)。Unfortunately转折后作者通过引用Will Smith的话以及自己的总结强调揭示了段落主题。
42、【答案】[E] Think about the present moment
【解析】该题所在段落平铺直叙,因此第一句话为段落中心句,其中关键信息是focus on the present moment,与选项E主题词复现。下文中又多次复现了主题词,如value the present moment,moment以及present。
43、【答案】[G] There are many things to be grateful for
【解析】该题的解题线索是主题词复现。段落中的appreciate,smile,value与grateful属于近义复现,cry和complain与grateful是反义复现。
44、【答案】[A] You are not alone
【解析】段落首句出现了表达强烈语气的情态动词should,因此主题句为首句,关键信息为you are not alone,与A选项匹配。
45、【答案】[C] Pave your own unique path
【解析】该段落主题句为“When you…you should believe in yourself and be sure that your decision is the best.”作者正面提出了自己的观点“相信自己以及自己的决定是的”。下文进一步阐释,其中own thoughts, own values 以及own choices构成了标题中的own unique path。

本文讨论了:英国粮食自给自足的模式。无法满足国内需求的问题,文章开篇提出,人口激增引发人们对粮食安全的关注,英国也不例外,随后引述一些人。关于恢复自给自足的观点,并借利兹大学的报告核对英国土地特征的分析,指出自给自足模式无法满足国内对肉类,奶制品以及农作物的需求。
第1段:粮食安全日益成为关注焦点。
1、表原因【 With the global population predicted to hit close to 10 billion by 2050 ,and forecasts{ that agricultural proction in some regions will need to nearly double to keep pace}】, food security is increasingly making headlines.
随着世界人口的预测,将要在2025年达到近10亿人,而且预测农业的食品生产在一些地区将会达到两倍的需求量,才能保持速度食品安全增加已经成为了一个头条。
2、In the UK,it has become a big talking point recently too,for a rather particular reason: Brexit.
最近在英国,由于脱欧这个相当特殊的理由,他也成为了一个热门的话题。
第2段:恢复自给自足的愿景
Brexit is seen by some as an opportunity {to reverse are recent trend}{ towards the UK importing food.} 有一些认为英国脱欧是一个机会对于扭转进口食品的趋势
The country proces only about 60 per cent of the food it eats, down from almost three-quarters in the late 1980s.该国的粮食产量只占其消费量的60%比20世纪世纪80年代末的75%更低
⭐A move back to self-sufficiency, the argument goes, would boost the farming instry, political sovereignty and even the nation's health.到自给自足的模式,将会推动农业发展、强化政治主权,甚至能够提高国民健康。
Sounds great - but how feasible is this vision ?听起来很棒但这一愿景的可行性度如何呢
第3段:英国国内对肉类和奶制品的所有需求无法得到满足。
⭐According to a report on UK food proction from the University of Leeds ,85 percent of the country's total land area is associated with meat and dairy proction.
根据报告对英国食品的生产来自于伦敦大学,在英国85%的乡村整个的土地,连接着食物和牛奶的生产。
That supplies 80 percent of what is consumed,so even covering the whole country in livestock farms wouldnt allow us to cover all our meat and dairy needs.
但他也只供应了消费总量的80%,所以即便全国都布满畜牧场,也无法满足人们对肉类与奶制品的所有需求。
第4段:
There are many caveats to those figures, but they are still grave.尽管对这些数据有不少的预先声明但形式依然严峻
To become much more self-sufficient, the UK would need to drastically rece its consumption of animal foods,and probably also farm more intensively—meaning fewer green fields,and more factory-style proction. 第2题干扰项出处
为了能够更加的自给自足,英国需要大幅度的减少动物食品的消费,可能还需要加强集约式耕作,这意味着绿地减少,工厂化生产增加。
第5段
But switching to a mainly plant-based diet wouldn't help. 不过转向素食为主的饮食也无济于事
⭐There is a good reason why the UK is dominated by animal husbandry: most of its terrain doesn't have the right soil or climate to grow crops on a commercial basis.
英国之所以以畜牧业为主,是有其充分理由的英国大部分的土地,没有合适的土壤和气候来进行商业种植。
Just 25 percent of the country's land is suitable for crop-growing,most of which is already occupied by arable fields.只有25%的国土师和种植农作物其中大部分已经备耕地占用
Even if we converted all the suitable land to fields of fruit and veg—which would involve taking out all he nature reserves and removing thousands of people from their homes—we would achieve only a 30 percent boost in crop proction .即使我们将所有适宜种植的土地改造,包括所有的自然保护区,使成千上万的人千离家园,也只能实现农作物增长30%。
第6段
⭐Just 23 percent of the fruit and vegetables consumed in the UK are currently home-grown,so even with the most extreme measures we could meet only 30 per cent of our fresh proce needs. 目前英国消费的水果和蔬菜只有23%是本土种植的
That is before we look for the space to grow the grains,sugars, seeds and oils that provide us with the vast bulk of our current calorie intake
.因此即使采取了极端的措施,在寻找空间种植谷物糖类种子,这些目前我们提供大部分热量的食物之前,我们也只能满足30%的新鲜农产品的需求。
