所謂攻略,第一要務是弄清楚攻的目標是什么？有什么特點？應當采取哪些措施？新四級考試的快速閱讀部分頻繁出現網上求職、找工作、教育國際化等方面的文章,比如2007年12月份快速閱讀文章的主題就是大學教育的國際化趨勢。只要掌握了正確的方法,快速閱讀相對來說是個比較容易得分的部分。一般來說,快速閱讀部分考查考生面對大量信息時迅速找到所需信息的能力。可分以下幾個步驟來應對:
1、讀懂題目要求,找出題目中的題眼,即考查的信息點；
2、找出題目中最中心的詞或者短句；
3、根據從題目中獲得的信息回到原文,尋找答案。針對本文中討論的就業類和教育類文章有何特定的解題技巧,下面將結合真題對之進行分析,以求提出實際的解決方案。
一、就業類例:
Protect Your Privacy When Job-Hunting Online...
1. Check for a privacy policy. ... Remember, the longer your resume remains posted on a job board, the more exposure, both positive and not-so-positive ...
2. Take advantage of site features. ... CareerBuilder.com, for example, offers three levels of privacy from which job seekers can choose. The first is ...The second is ...The third is ...
3. Safeguard your identity. ... Replace your name on your resume with a generic identifier, such as "Intranet Developer Candidate", or "Experienced Marketing Representative"...
4. Establish an email address for your search. ...
5. Protect your references. ...
6. Keep confidential (機密的) information confidential. ...
這是2007年6月快速閱讀真題,主題為"如何在上網找工作時保護隱私"。此篇為較典型的針對就業中遇到的問題提出解決方案的選文,其結構為標準的總分模式,即在中心意思描述清楚之后分述各個分論點。因此,熟悉就業類選材的這種特點,考生便可抓住分論點、"題眼"以及分論點中描述內容的中心句或句中的中心詞大做文章了。
題1:It is important that your resume not stay online longer than is necessary.
解析:此題根據題眼"resume not stay ... longer"鎖定第一小點中的"Remember, the longer your resume remains posted on a job board, the more exposure, both positive and not-so-positive ..."可知,簡歷在網上放置的時間越長,隱私暴露的時間也越長。故為Y。
題2:Of the three options offered by Career Builder.com in Suggestion 2, the third one is apparently most strongly recommended.
解析:此題根據題眼"Career Builder.com in Suggestion 2"鎖定第二小點中提到的三個"隱私保護等級"可知,文章只是介紹這三種等級,并未強烈推薦第三種等級。故為NG。
題3:Applicants are advised to use generic names for themselves and their current employers when seeking employment online.
解析:此題根據題眼"generic names"鎖定第三小點中"Replace your name on your resume with a generic identifier, such as 'Intranet Developer Candidate’, or 'Experienced Marketing Representative’"可知,應聘者應該把名字設置為泛指的名字,比如"網絡研發應聘人"或"資深市場銷售代表"等。故為Y。
二、教育類
例:
Universities Branch Out...
people has made universities a powerful force for global integration,...
In response to the same forces that have driven the world economy, universities have become more self-consciously global
... ... Over the past three decades the number of students leaving home each year to study abroad has grown at an annual rate of 3.9 percent,
...... Yale and Harvard have led the way, offering every undergraduate at least one international study or internship opportunity —and providing the financial resources to make it possible
.... Yale professor and Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator Tian Xu directs a research center focused on the genetics of human disease at Shanghai’s Fudan University, in collaboration with faculty colleagues from both schools ...... Silicon Valley was intentionally created by Stanford University,
......, but support for research funding has been unsteady. The budget of the National Institutes of Health dou-bled between 1998 and 2003, but has risen more slowly than inflation since then
... ... In the wake of September 11,changes in the visa process caused a dramatic decline in the number of foreign students seeking admission to U.S. universities, ...Most Americans recognize that universities contribute to the nation’s well-being
..., but many fear that foreign students threaten American competitiveness ...
這是2007年12月快速閱讀真題,主題為"教育國際化"。相對于以上總結的就業類選文沒有呈現出明顯的逐個論述小論點的模式,但是把文章的整體結構尤其每段的中心句提煉出來,會發現此類選文的結構十分類似,即總論之后從各個方面進行分論闡述。故考生在做題時也是有章法可循的。
