2007年6月英語六級真題精講：快速閱讀
【快速閱讀·指點(diǎn)迷津】
考生應(yīng)該先看文章后的題目，分析定位詞，并用筆標(biāo)出以加深印象；把文章通讀一遍，注意每段的中心句或中心思想，留心題目當(dāng)中標(biāo)出的信息，但不要在閱讀過程中停下來去考慮單詞、詞組或句子的意思，懂不懂都要一律跳過；在做題時(shí)，要注意對比題目和文章當(dāng)中相應(yīng)信息在表述方式上的不同，要特別注意兩者在用詞上的區(qū)別--考的往往就是這個(gè)詞。
【試題精講】
1． 【答案】N
【解析】考生首先要根據(jù)定位詞 "Plans for 2004" 找到文章的第1段第2句。 "In fact, one in four workers is dissatisfied with their current job, according to the recent Plans for 2004 survey." 題干中的most與原文one in four顯然不符，故答案為N。
2． 【答案】Y
【解析】題目中的定位詞Mary Lyn Miller 可以在原文第2段首句找到。"Mary Lyn Miller, veteran career consultant and founder of the Life and Career Clinic..." 題目中的advise與原文consultant對應(yīng)，故答案為Y。
3． 【答案】NG
【解析】根據(jù)定位詞Mary Lyn Miller找到文章第2段。首句提到 "...says that when most people are unhappy about their work..."和尾句的 "...she has helped thousands of dissatisfied workers reassess life and work."均未涉及她本人對自己工作的感想，故答案為NG。
4． 【答案】Y
【解析】考生可根據(jù)題目中的定位詞many people find it difficult找到文章Step 1 Willingness to do something different的第2句。 "Many find it difficult to steer away from a career path make a change..." 題目中以change their career path與原文的steer away from a career path or make a change意義吻合，故答案為Y。
5． 【答案】those things that they love most
【解析】題目中的定位詞commit和pursuit可以在Step 2 Commitment to being who you are, not who or what someone wants you to be 的第1句找到: "...and make a commitment to pursue those things that you love most." 介詞of后應(yīng)填名詞形式，答案為those things that they love most，在這里考生注意的是把文中的人稱代詞you改為they.
6． 【答案】products
【解析】定位詞是sell themselves，考生可在原文Step 3 Self-definition 的開頭部分找到: "...they need to know how sell themselves. 'In the job market, you are a product.'" 而題目中的In the job market與原文一致，故答案為products.
7．【答案】more confidence
【解析】根據(jù)定位詞self-honoring or self-love和potential employers可找到原文Step 4 Attain a level of self-honoring的第2句。"By accepting who you are-your emotions, hopes and dreams, your personality, and your unique way of being-you'll project more confidence when networking and talking with potential employers." 題目中的during an interview with potential employers 和 when networking and talking with potential employers一致，show與project對應(yīng)，故答案為more confidence.
8． 【答案】What do I really want to do
【解析】考生可根據(jù)定位詞develop a vision找到原文Step 5 Vision的首句。 Miller suggests that job seekers develop a vision that embraces the answer to "What do I really want to do?" 題目中的answers the question 與原文embraces the answer to正好對應(yīng)，故答案為What do I really want to do.
9． 【答案】give up or risk/take risks and make sacrifices
【解析】定位詞pursue their dreams 和unwilling to可以幫助考生迅速找到原文Step 6 Appropriate risk的第4句，"...job seekers should assess what they are willing to give up, or risk, in pursuit of their dream." 答案顯然為give up or risk。考生也可從尾句找到答案:"...if you identify how much risk you are willing to take and the sacrifices you are wiling to make."
10.【答案】the lack of action
【解析】根據(jù)定位詞 holds people back from考生可找到文章Step 7 Action的第3句。 "All too often, it is the lack of action that ultimately holds people back from attaining their ideas." 此句為強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，與題目意思完全一致，強(qiáng)調(diào)的部分the lack of action即為空白部分應(yīng)填的答案。
