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。If you were to examine the birth certificates of every soccer player in 2006’s World Cup tournament, you would most likely find a noteworthy quirk: elite ... that feed the World Cup and professional ranks, you would find this strange phenomenon to be even more pronounced
birth certificate“出生证明”；tournament“锦标赛，联赛”；noteworthy“值得注意的”；quirk“奇事”；elite“出类拔萃的，精锐的”，也可以充当名词，表示“精英”；feed the World Cup“为世界杯输送球员”；professional rank结合语境，可以表示“职业联赛”；this strange phenomenon就对应a noteworthy quirk；pronounced“显著的”。
What might account for this strange phenomenon? Here are a few guesses: a) certain astrological signs confer superior soccer skills; b) winter-born babies tend to have higher oxygen capacity, which increases soccer stamina; c) soccer-mad parents are more likely to conceive children in springtime, at the annual peak of soccer mania; d) none of the above.
