本次2013年6月的六級(jí)考試閱讀難度可以說(shuō)是最近幾年的歷史最低難度,從快速閱讀,到簡(jiǎn)答題,再到深度閱讀,基本整個(gè)考試都以細(xì)節(jié)題作為考試靈魂出現(xiàn),這就再次體現(xiàn)了六級(jí)閱讀重局部精讀,輕通篇理解的考試方法。
我們不難看出本次考試快讀閱讀部分還是遵循了一個(gè)基本規(guī)律,即,文章較難且松散,但是題目簡(jiǎn)單且容易定位的原則。對(duì)待快速閱讀這個(gè)部分應(yīng)該像翻字典一樣,重視小標(biāo)題,重視原文單個(gè)的定位句,嚴(yán)格按照寫(xiě)作順序承接出題順序。
簡(jiǎn)單題部分的難度,基本參照六級(jí)近三年的考試難度,通篇全部都是細(xì)節(jié)題,這個(gè)部分我們可以直接給大家提供如下的參考答案:
47.According to the author, a child's musical ability has much to do with their motivation and practice.
48. In order to develop the musical ability of their children, many parents will accompany them during their practice sacrificing a lot of their own leisure time.
49. Because of their father's pressure and strict training, Michael Jackson and some of his brothers and sisters eventually became musicians and dancers.
50. Michael's extra drive for music was partly due to the fact that he was treated as special by his mother.
51. To bring up a great musician like Mozart or Bach, willingness to be strict with your child is the key factor
深度閱讀部分,出現(xiàn)了前所未有的題型顛覆,根據(jù)真題部分的體現(xiàn),我們很容易發(fā)現(xiàn)深度閱讀部分的題型由原始的五種題型,即:細(xì)節(jié)題,推理題,含義題,主旨題,態(tài)度題,壓縮為只考察一種題型----細(xì)節(jié)題。這就要求大家再次加強(qiáng)對(duì)于某個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)定位點(diǎn)的局部理解和功利理解,而不需要對(duì)篇章主旨進(jìn)行大幅度的掌握。其中第一篇講授內(nèi)容為網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物,離同學(xué)們的生活較為貼近,容易掌握。具體題目與答案如下:
Passage One

第二篇文章稍顯難度增加,講授的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于天氣和媒體的關(guān)系,此篇文章內(nèi)容較為生澀,但是,同樣題目的難度卻沒(méi)有大幅度增加,因此,看到下文的題干和答案相信大家可以第一時(shí)間了解六級(jí)閱讀深度部分再次對(duì)于細(xì)節(jié)的關(guān)注:

六級(jí)閱讀在改革的過(guò)程中,已經(jīng)明顯呈現(xiàn)了難度下降的趨勢(shì),這對(duì)于廣大考生而言是一個(gè)利好的消息。但是大多數(shù)同學(xué)反映,在題目不難的同時(shí),要求的速度卻相應(yīng)的有了極大的提高,因此對(duì)于同學(xué)們來(lái)講,更重要的是如何利用技巧在有限的單位時(shí)間內(nèi)加快閱讀的速度和準(zhǔn)確度,這才是六級(jí)閱讀的重中之重。希望大家可以根據(jù)考試多考查細(xì)節(jié)的趨勢(shì),加強(qiáng)通篇定位和局部精讀的能力,最終通過(guò)六級(jí),實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的夢(mèng)想。
