  就考研英语试卷而言,阅读部分乃重中之重。从基础阶段开始,我们就应该重点关注阅读。为了帮助各位同学更加有效地复习,文都教育考研英语老师为大家梳理一下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1998年考研英语真题阅读Text 1,这篇文章主要介绍了修建巨型大坝弊大于利。
  And yet, the myth of controlling the waters persists. This week, in the heart of civilized Europe, Slovaks and Hungarians stopped just short of sending in the troops in their contention over a dam on the Danube. The huge complex will probably have all the usual problems of big dams. But Slovakia is bidding for independence from the Czechs, and now needs a dam to prove itself.
  段首句既是转折处,也是段落中心句;接下来举例说明,其实可以略过,如果题目涉及另当别论;the myth of controlling the waters persists“控制水的神话在持续”,题目涉及到了这句话,正确选项They have universal control of the waters,关于巨型大坝的神话就是“控制水”;civilized“文明的”;stop just short of doing“差点做某事”;send in“派遣(军队或警察)”;contention“争论”;the huge complex指的就是“巨型大坝”;bid for independence“争取独立”。
  Meanwhile, in India, the World Bank has given the go-ahead to the even more wrong-headed Narmada Dam. And the bank has done this even though its advisors say the dam will cause hardship for the powerless and environmental destruction. The benefits are for the powerful, but they are far from guaranteed.
  meanwhile“与此同时”;go-ahead“许可”;wrong-headed“执迷不悟的,刚愎自用的”;hardship“困苦,苦难”;the powerless和environmental destruction并列,前者表示“无权者,弱者”,后者表示“环境破坏”,environmental protection就是“环境保护”;the powerful“有权者,强者”和the powerless对应;guarantee“保证,担保”。
  Proper, scientific study of the impacts of dams and of the cost and benefits of controlling water can help to resolve these conflicts. Hydroelectric power and flood control and irrigation are possible without building monster dams... It is time that the world learned the lessons of Aswan. You don’t need a dam to be saved.
  段首句“对于大坝的影响以及控制水的收益与成本的科学的、合理的研究有助于解决这些冲突”;hydroelectric power“水力发电”;irrigation“灌溉”;monster“巨大的,庞大的”,也可以表示“怪物”;it is time that...“是做某事的时候了”,that从句的谓语动词往往用一般过去时;learn the lesson“吸取经验教训”。
  以上就是文都教育考研英语老师为大家梳理的1998年考研英语真题阅读Text 1后三段的要点。各位同学在复习过程中,千万不可逃避困难,应该从最棘手的问题入手。某些同学觉得阅读特别难,索性搁置一边。这种情况是极其危险的,如果一直拖延下去,可能直到考试也没有把阅读问题解决。因此,马上行动起来,突破阅读吧!
  文都考研提醒大家全国各单位院校2018研究生招生简章公布时间为每年6月—10月份,想要报考2018考研的同学们,请及时关注意向院校官方信息,做好2018考研报名的相关准备工作。
