考研英语基础阅读技巧之论点论据？

基础阶段(3到6月),广大考生除了要每天背单词啃长难句之外,对阅读的要求也不能松懈,那该如何进行复习,怎样才能事半功倍呢?

我们知道不管是英语一还是英语二考研阅读的文章95%以上的都是议论文。而议论文最重要是找到论点。那如何区分论点和论据呢?

1.若前面有完整句子。后以for example、take sth for example 、such as 、take 、consider、like 等开始的,一直到点号结束,中间都不用读,括号括起来,括号内容为论据。前一句话为论据。此情况出现频率极高。这一技巧,在阅读理解和新题型中都是适用的。

“Ihave great confidence that by theend of the decade we'll know in vast detailhow cancer cells arise,” saysmicrobiologist Robert Weinberg, an expert oncancer. “But,” he cautions, “somepeople have the idea that once one understandsthe causes, the cure willrapidly follow. Consider Pasteur, he discovered thecauses of many kinds ofinfections, but it was fifty or sixty years before cureswere available.”(1994年)

2.若前面有完整句子。后面马上出现引号引用某人的话,那后面的引用一定为论据,不用读。

Acuteforeign observers relatedAmerican adaptiveness and inventiveness to thiseducational advantage. As amember of a British commission visiting here in 1853reported, “With a mindprepared by thorough school discipline, the American boydevelops rapidly intothe skilled workman.”(1996)那这段话中就只用读第一句。

Giventhis optimistic approach totechnological innovation, the American worker tookreadily to that special kindof nonverbal thinking required in mechanicaltechnology. As Eugene Ferguson haspointed out, “A technologist thinks aboutobjects that cannot be reduced tounambiguous verbal descriptions; they aredealt with in his mind by a visual,nonverbal process … The designer and theinventor … are able to assemble andmanipulate in their minds devices that asyet do not exist.”(1996)这段话也只用读第一句。

3. 抽象观点或概念后,有具体例子。例子为论据。这是一种频率高但是很容易忽略的点。希望大家好好练习:

Butthe tide is unlikely to turn back,In Australia - where an aging population,life-extending technology andchanging community attitudes have all played theirpart - other states aregoing to consider making a similar law to deal witheuthanasia. In theUSandCanada, where the right-to-die movement is gathering strength, observersarewaiting for the dominoes to start falling.

在这一小段话中。In Australia与 In the US and Canada并列,同时也是前一句话tide趋势这一抽象概念的2个具体例子。

4. 某句后有人名,数字,时间等列举。列举点一定是论据。

Theofficial statistics are mildlydiscouraging. They show that, if you lumpmanufacturing and services together,productivity has grown on average by 1.2%since 1987. That is somewhat fasterthan the average during the previous decade.And since 1991, productivity hasincreased by about 2% a year, which is morethan twice the 1978-1987 average.The trouble is that part of the recentacceleration is due to the usual reboundthat occurs at this point in a businesscycle, and so is not conclusiveevidence of a revival in the underlying trend.There is, as Robert Rubin, thetreasury secretary, says, a “disjunction” betweenthe mass of business anecdotethat points to a leap in productivity and thepicture reflected by thestatistics.

那这段话就只用读第一句。

Twoother explanations are morespeculative. First, some of the businessrestructuring of recent years may havebeen ineptly done. Second, even if it waswell done, it may have spread muchless widely than people suppose.

LeonardSchlesinger, a Harvard academicand former chief executive of Au Bong Pain, arapidly growing chain of bakerycafes, says that much “re-engineering” has beencrude. In many cases, hebelieves, the loss of revenue has been greater than thereductions in cost. Hiscolleague, Michael Beer, says that far too manycompanies have appliedre-engineering in a mechanistic fashion, chopping outcosts without givingsufficient thought to long term profitability. BBDO’s AlRosenshine is blunter.He dismisses a lot of the work of re-engineering consultantsas mere rubbish --“the worst sort of ambulance cashing.”

那这2段话该怎么分析呢?我们可以看到第二段出现了2个人,也就是说整个第二段都是人名的列举。都是例子都不需要读。

综上所述,学会区分论点论据,能让我们很大程度上简化文章。能在基础阶段好好学习、好好练习,为暑期和后面的强化阶段打下夯实的基础。
