雅思大牛教你怎么做雅思阅读
雅思阅读似乎天生就是用来刁难人的：每篇近1000字的学术文章，不认识的单词，需要细细比对的题目，准确誊抄答案......而这一切都要在六十分钟内完成。因此，很多雅思考生抱怨雅思阅读时间不够，或者匆匆忙忙做完了正确率太低。实际上，雅思阅读虽然文章长，题目多，但是在规定时间内做完并且有一个可观的正确率，是完全可以达到的标准。
雅思阅读的时间不够主要源于两个方面：一是文章太长，二是题目涉及的信息点位置分散。对于第一个问题，需要在平时的备考过程中加强训练。这里面主要有两个问题，一是阅读速度慢，二是生单词阻碍了阅读的进度。阅读速度慢的问题只有通过大量阅读来解决。实际上，如果每天给自己一个规定的时间，在这一时间内要求自己必须完成一定字数的阅读，这样天天练习，阅读速度慢慢就会提高。很多时候，阅读的速
度不够快和大脑接受英语信息的速度有关系，当大脑需要将英语翻译成汉语才能接受的时候，速度自然就慢了。因此，就需要平时养成英语的思维习惯，比较可行的办法是自己在心里对着自己说话，碰到任何一件有意思的事情，就在心里默默地用英语描述。除此以外，也可以找一份与雅思阅读难度相当的英语材料，每天大声快速的朗读，以此来训练自己快速接受英语信息的能力。应对生单词，则要有两手准备：一是平时阅读的时候多积累单词、看见不认识的单词，当时就记录下来并且反复复习;二是在考试中如果遇到了生词，不要慌张，一般而言都不影响理解，将它当作一个认识的单词就好，或者直接跳过去也未尝不可。但是有时会有关键词不认识的情况，所以，解决这个问题根本还是在平日的积累。
关于题目涉及信息分散的问题，主要通过做题技巧来弥补。通过浏览文章之后，我们在心里应该对文章什么部分讲什么有了一个大概的印象。这种“印象”是做题速度的根本保证。在这个基础上，要掌握一些基本的技巧。首先，雅思的阅读题的顺序通常是与文章相对应的，就是说，前面的题目对应文章的前几段，后面的题目对应文章的后几段，有一定的对应关系，这样，在寻找信息的时候就更能有的放矢，不至于满篇乱找。其次，雅思的阅读题中，比较容易出问题的可能是判断题和段落信息匹配题。判断题要坚持一个基本原则，那就是文章中没有提到的坚决是NOTGIVEN。中国人的思维习惯，认为有所提及，但是没有说到，应该判断为错(FALSE或者NO)，但是，在雅思考试当中，就算文章所说内容与题目有关，但没有出现关键词，也不能认为对。例如2010年9月11日雅思A类考试第三篇文章，判断题中说行星上面可能有水，原文说的是行星被氢气层所环绕。看起来二者相关，但是答案应该是NOTGIVEN，因为并没有提到跟水有关的东西，而题目所陈述的是跟水相关的情况。至于段落信息匹配题，就一定要找出关键词，并和原文进行比对。对于相似的信息，就需要在信息之间首先加以比较，找出分歧的地方，再到文章中去找。这样，就能很容易地找出信息所在段落了。
雅思阅读模拟真题原文：new weapon to fight cancer
new weapon to fight cancer
1. British scientists are preparing to launch trials of a radical new way to fight cancer, which kills tumours by infecting them with viruses like the common cold.
2. If successful, virus therapy could eventually form a third pillar alongside radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the standard arsenal against cancer, while avoiding some of the debilitating side-effects.
3. Leonard Seymour, a professor of gene therapy at Oxford University, who has been working on the virus therapy with colleagues in London and the US, will lead the trials later this year. Cancer Research UK said yesterday that it was excited by the potential of Prof Seymour's pioneering techniques.
4. One of the country's leading geneticists, Prof Seymour has been working with viruses that kill cancer cells directly, while avoiding harm to healthy tissue. "In principle, you've got something which could be many times more effective than regular chemotherapy," he said.
5. Cancer-killing viruses exploit the fact that cancer cells suppress the body's local immune system. "If a cancer doesn't do that, the immune system wipes it out. If you can get a virus into a tumour, viruses find them a very good place to be because there's no immune system to stop them replicating. You can regard it as the cancer's Achilles' heel."
6. Only a small amount of the virus needs to get to the cancer. "They replicate, you get a million copies in each cell and the cell bursts and they infect the tumour cells adjacent and repeat the process," said Prof Seymour.
7. Preliminary research on mice shows that the viruses work well on tumours resistant to standard cancer drugs. "It's an interesting possibility that they may have an advantage in killing drug-resistant tumours, which could be quite different to anything we've had before."
8. Researchers have known for some time that viruses can kill tumour cells and some aspects of the work have already been published in scientific journals. American scientists have previously injected viruses directly into tumours but this technique will not work if the cancer is inaccessible or has spread throughout the body.
9. Prof Seymour's innovative solution is to mask the virus from the body's immune system, effectively allowing the viruses to do what chemotherapy drugs do - spread through the blood and reach tumours wherever they are. The big hurdle has always been to find a way to deliver viruses to tumours via the bloodstream without the body's immune system destroying them on the way.
10. "What we've done is make chemical modifications to the virus to put a polymer coat around it - it's a stealth virus when you inject it," he said.
11. After the stealth virus infects the tumour, it replicates, but the copies do not have the chemical modifications. If they escape from the tumour, the copies will be quickly recognised and mopped up by the body's immune system.
12. The therapy would be especially useful for secondary cancers, called metastases, which sometimes spread around the body after the first tumour appears. "There's an awful statistic of patients in the west ... with malignant cancers; 75% of them go on to die from metastases," said Prof Seymour.
13. Two viruses are likely to be examined in the first clinical trials: adenovirus, which normally causes a cold-like illness, and vaccinia, which causes cowpox and is also used in the vaccine against smallpox. For safety reasons, both will be disabled to make them less pathogenic in the trial, but Prof Seymour said he eventually hopes to use natural viruses.
14. The first trials will use uncoated adenovirus and vaccinia and will be delivered locally to liver tumours, in order to establish whether the treatment is safe in humans and what dose of virus will be needed. Several more years of trials will be needed, eventually also on the polymer-coated viruses, before the therapy can be considered for use in the NHS. Though the approach will be examined at first for cancers that do not respond to conventional treatments, Prof Seymour hopes that one day it might be applied to all cancers.
