考研人數(shù)逐年增加,競爭之激烈使得我們不得不加急復(fù)習(xí)的日程。眾所周知,閱讀理解占據(jù)了考研英語二100分試卷的一半分值,而考研英語閱讀文章大多來自英美國家的主流報(bào)刊雜志,所以如果能在日常就多多閱讀這些文章,對以后讀懂文章做對題目來說會大有裨益。
學(xué)習(xí)步驟如下:
1.不看漢語譯文自己看一遍短文做理解
2.看漢語譯文比對自己理解的意思與之出入
3.強(qiáng)化記憶重點(diǎn)單詞(以記憶其漢語意思為主)
Parkrun is succeeding where London’s Olympic “l(fā)egacy” is failing. Ten years ago on Monday, it was announced that the Games of the 30th Olympiad would be in London. Planning documents pledged that the great legacy of the Games would be to lever a nation of sport lovers away from their couches. The population would be fitter, healthier and produce more winners. It has not happened. The number of adults doing weekly sport did rise, by nearly 2 million in the run-up to 2012 – but the general population was growing faster. Worse, the numbers are now falling at an accelerating rate. The opposition claims primary school pupils doing at least two hours of sport a week have nearly halved. Obesity has risen among adults and children. Official retrospections continue as to why London 2012 failed to “inspire a generation”. The success of Parkrun offers answers.
短文翻譯
倫敦奧運(yùn)會的遺留影響未能奏效,而公園跑的活動興盛了起來,十年前的某個(gè)星期一,第30屆奧林匹克運(yùn)動會被宣布在倫敦舉行。規(guī)劃文件保證,奧運(yùn)會遺留影響將促使全國的體育愛好者離開自家的沙發(fā)出去鍛煉,人民群眾會更加健康,并產(chǎn)生更多的獲獎(jiǎng)?wù)?。可是這一切并未發(fā)生。每周進(jìn)行體育鍛煉的成年人數(shù)量確實(shí)有所增長,在 2012 年倫敦奧運(yùn)會到來之前增加了將近 200 萬人,但總?cè)丝跀?shù)量的增加卻更快一些。然而糟糕的是,現(xiàn)在這些數(shù)字正在加速減少。反對者宣稱,每周至少進(jìn)行 2 小時(shí)體育鍛煉的小學(xué)生的數(shù)量幾乎減半。成人和兒童的過度肥胖問題有所增加。官方繼續(xù)反思為什么 2012 年倫敦奧運(yùn)會沒有能夠“鼓舞一代人”這個(gè)問題。公園跑的成功則給出了答案。

題目解析
22.【解析】可以發(fā)現(xiàn)原文中第二段第一句話Parkrun is succeeding where London’s Olympic “l(fā)egacy” is failing與題干中的關(guān)鍵詞 London’s Olympic “l(fā)egacy” has failed to...對應(yīng),所以可以鎖定文章的第二段,從而找出解題的關(guān)鍵。第二段前半部分講了在最初的時(shí)候Olympic的目標(biāo),然而,事實(shí)卻事與愿違,...but the general population was growing faster. Worse, the numbers are now falling at an accelerating rate. 由這句話可以看出,Olympic并沒有推動大眾的參與性,與預(yù)期的目標(biāo)不符,所以選擇B.promote sport participation。
