  ACT阅读因为考试时间短文章难,所以对于考生们的基础能力要求很高,除了要掌握好常考话题对应的单词以外,熟悉常见的短语,对于快速理解文章来说,也是至关重要的。

  ACT阅读总论

  1、记叙的归记叙,议论的归议论;记叙文看情感,议论文看观点;

  2、先看文章再做题; 不要盲信古怪的做题方法;不是学神,就不要尝试先看题再看文章的方法;

  3、ACT阅读的文章和题目出得相对浅薄,切忌过度思考,切忌深思熟虑,熟练掌握Educated Guess;

  4、优等考生(阅读28+)记忆做题,尽量不回看;中级考生(阅读27-)量力而行,务必回看;学神随意(阅读31+);

  5、给行号题目,考查理解能力,务必回看;无行号题目,考查循证能力,记忆做题,尽量不回看;

  6、文章阅读和题目解答的标准动作都要到位,不要盲目拼速度,欲速则不达。
