考研英语历年真题阅读要点之2007-Text 1（二）
时间对于考研复习而言并不慷慨，复习的内容又那么多。怎么办呢？各位同学应该具备化繁为简，把握有效信息的能力。文都英语老师继续为大家梳理考研英语历年真题阅读文章中涉及的要点，包括词汇、短语、长难句以及简单的阅读方法。接下来看一下2007年考研英语真题阅读Text 1，这篇文章主要探讨了所谓的天才在很大程度上不过是后天努力的结果。This success, coupled with later research showing that memory itself is not genetically determined, led Ericsson to conclude that the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one. In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize, those differences are swamped by how well each person “encodes” the information.
coupled with相当于and；showing现在分词充当后置定语；is not genetically determined“不是由基因决定的”；the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one“记忆行为与其说是一种直觉性行为不如说是一种认知性训练”；in other words“换句话说”；inborn“天生的，先天的”；exhibit“显示”；abilities to memorize“记忆的能力”；swamp“使沉没，使淹没”，也可以表示“使陷于困境”；encode“编码”，反义词decode“解码”。
And the best way to learn how to encode information meaningfully, Ericsson determined, was a process known as deliberate practice. Deliberate practice entails more than simply repeating a task. Rather, it involves setting specific goals, obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome.
meaningful“有意义的”，反义词meaningless“无意义的”；determine“断定”；deliberate practice“刻意训练”；entail“蕴含，包含”；more than“不仅仅，不只是”；rather“相反”；involve和entail对应；set specific goal“设定具体的目标”；obtain immediate feedback“收到及时的反馈”；concentrate on“集中精力于，全神贯注于”；technique“技术，手法”；outcome“结果，效果”。
Ericsson and his colleagues have thus taken to studying expert performers in a wide range of pursuits ... not just performance statistics and biographical details but also the results of their own laboratory experiments with high achievers. Their work makes a rather startling assertion: the trait we commonly call talent is highly overrated. Or, put another way ...
colleague“同事，同僚”；take to doing“开始做某事”；expert“熟练的，内行的”；expert performers in a wide range of pursuits“众多领域中的专业人士”；statistics“统计资料”；biographical“传记的”；detail“细节”；laboratory“实验室”；startling“令人吃惊的”；assertion“断言”；trait“特性，品质”；overrate“高估”；put another way“换句话说”。
以上就是文都英语老师为大家梳理的2007年考研英语真题阅读Text 1后两段的要点。“一寸光阴一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴。”与其慨叹时间过得如此之快，不如行动起来，为了目标而努力！努力的同时还要结合一定的方法，简单高效完成复习任务，进而突破考研英语乃至整个考研。
