　　二、秘訣

　　1.快速瀏覽全文，把握文章脈絡(luò)

　　文中陰影部分皆為具體闡釋或舉例，所以無需仔細(xì)閱讀，可快速瀏覽甚至跳過不看。而下劃線部分的成分則需讀者特別注意，如第三段的this，它表明該段是上文的總結(jié);that is表明后文為前文的解釋，所以讀者如果前文看懂了，后文也就沒有太大作用了。

　　Passage One

　　In a purely biological sense, fear begins with the bodys system for reacting to things that can harm us -- the so-called fight-or-flight response. An animal that cant detect danger cant stay alive, says Joseph LeDoux. Like animals, humans evolved with an elaborate mechanism for processing information about potential threats. At its core is a cluster of neurons deep in the brain known as the amygdala .

　　LeDoux studies the way animals and humans respond to threats to understand how we form memories of significant events in our lives. The amygdala receives input from many parts of the brain, including regions responsible for retrieving memories. Using this information, the amygdala appraises a situation - I think this charging dog wants to bite me - and triggers a response by radiating nerve signals throughout the body. These signals produce the familiar signs of distress: trembling, perspiration and fast-moving feet, just to name three.

　　This fear mechanism is critical to the survival of all animals, but no one can say for sure whether beasts other than humans know theyre afraid. That is, as LeDoux says, if you put that system into a brain that has consciousness, then you get the feeling of fear.

　　Humans, says Edward M. Hallowell, have the ability to call up images of bad things that happened in the past and to anticipate future events. Combine these higher thought processes with our hardwired danger-detection systems, and you get a near-universal human phenomenon: worry.

　　Thats not necessarily a bad thing, says Hallowell, When used properly, worry is an incredible device, he says. After all, a little healthy worrying is okay if it leads to constructive action -- like having a doctor look at that weird spot on your back.

　　Hallowell insists, though, that theres a right way to worry. Never do it alone, get the facts and then make a plan, he says. Most of us have survived a recession, so were familiar with the belt-tightening strategies needed to survive a slump.

　　Unfortunately, few of us have much experience dealing with the threat of terrorism, so its been difficult to get facts about how we should respond. Thats why Hallowell believes it was okay for people to indulge some extreme worries last fall by asking doctors for Cipro and buying gas masks.

　　2.仔細(xì)研析題干，確定關(guān)鍵詞語

　　選擇題的解答成功與否，主要取決于對(duì)題干的充分挖掘。如第53題，該題定位并不難，因?yàn)槿嗣亲顬槿菀状_定的線索，再加上study一詞便可確定答案所在地。但該題的關(guān)鍵在于learn一詞，它決定了正確答案肯定不是原文直接言明，而是間接暗示的，所以由此可先排除文章直接言明的選項(xiàng)B)和C)。選項(xiàng)A)與所在段的內(nèi)容不相干，所以正確答案為D)。

　　53. From the studies conducted by LeDoux we learn that _________.

　　A) reactions of humans and animals to dangerous situations are often unpredictable

　　B) memories of significant events enable people to control fear and distress

　　C) peoples unpleasant memories are derived from their feelings of fear

　　D) the amygdala plays a vital part in human and animals responses to potential danger

　　3.理性分析失效，投機(jī)技巧登場(chǎng)

　　1)答案項(xiàng)中有絕對(duì)語氣詞的一般不是正確答案項(xiàng)。這些語氣詞有： must, always, never, the most, all, only, have to, any, no, very, completely, none, hardly等。

　　2)選項(xiàng)中含有不十分肯定的語氣詞一般是正確答案項(xiàng)。這些語氣詞有： can, could, may, should, usually, might, most，more or less, relatively, be likely to, possible, whether or, not necessarily 等。

　　3)選項(xiàng)中照抄原文的一般不是答案項(xiàng)，而同義替換的一般是選項(xiàng)。此外，正確選項(xiàng)往往其詞匯對(duì)應(yīng)數(shù)量在3個(gè)或3個(gè)以上。

　　4)較全面、有針對(duì)性地表達(dá)文章中心思想的選項(xiàng)一般是答案項(xiàng)。

　　5)選項(xiàng)中表達(dá)意義較具體的、膚淺的一般不是答案項(xiàng)，而概括性的、抽象的、含義深刻的一般是答案項(xiàng)。

　　6)選項(xiàng)中較符合常識(shí)的、易明白的一般不是選項(xiàng)，而似乎不太合理、一時(shí)較難理解的往往是正確選項(xiàng)。

　　4.時(shí)間緊張之時(shí)，略看文章答題

　　1)針對(duì)主旨大意題只讀段首、段尾句。一般來說，一篇文章的中心思想或某一段主題思想往往通過段首、段尾句表達(dá)出來?？忌杆僬业搅诉@些主題句，也能答題。

　　2)若針對(duì)舉例子、引用名人言論、特殊符號(hào)后內(nèi)容出題，考生可只讀例子、名人言話、符號(hào)前后句內(nèi)容，然后答題。

　　3)如果題目只是針對(duì)某一段內(nèi)容而提問，考生可只看該段內(nèi)容即可答題，而不必等把文章全看完才做，以防到時(shí)要交卷，而能做出的題因時(shí)間不足而瞎猜。

　　4)針對(duì)詞匯題，考生可只看詞匯所在句和前后句內(nèi)容即可答題，因?yàn)閷?duì)單詞字義的揣測(cè)，一般只通過單詞所在句或前后句內(nèi)容就能猜出。
