      各位同学,考研英语复习进度如何?阅读部分不可忽视哦。现在基础阶段,可以从早年考研英语真题入手,以精读的方式完成阅读部分。文都考研英语老师为2018考研梳理一下历年真题阅读文章中涉及的要点,包括词汇、短语、长难句以及简单的阅读方法。接下来看一下2000年考研英语真题阅读Text 1,这篇文章主要讲了美国经济状况。

      All of this caused a crisis of confidence. Americans stopped taking prosperity for granted. They began to believe that their way of doing business was failing, and that their incomes would therefore shortly begin to fall as well. The mid-1980s brought one inquiry after another into the causes of America’s industrial decline. Their sometimes sensational findings were filled with warnings about the growing competition from overseas.

      a crisis of confidence“信心危机”;take...for granted“认为...理所当然”,也可以用it充当形式主语it is taken for granted that...“人们理所当然地认为”;doing business“做生意”;failing“失败的”;that..., and that...两个并列的that引导的宾语从句,充当believe的宾语;income“收入”;one after another“接连地,一个又一个地”;inquiry into“对...的调查”,inquiry的动词形式inquire;cause“原因”,cause and effect“因果”;decline“衰退”;sensational“轰动的,耸人听闻的”;warning“警告”。

      How things have changed! In 1995 the United States can look back on five years of solid growth while Japan has been struggling. Few Americans attribute this solely to such obvious causes as a devalued dollar or the turning of the business cycle. Self-doubt has yielded to blind pride. “American industry has changed its structure, has gone on a diet, has learnt to be more quick-witted,”... that people will look back on this period as “a golden age of business management in the United States.”

      How things have changed!‘情况已经改变!’look back on“回顾”;solid growth“稳固增长”;struggle“奋斗,挣扎”。Few Americans attribute this solely to such obvious causes as a devalued dollar or the turning of the business cycle.“几乎没有美国人将这一巨变单纯归因于美元贬值或商业周期的轮换这些显而易见的原因。”换句话说,作者认为,原因就是美元贬值和商业周期的轮换。Self-doubt has yielded to blind pride.“自我怀疑已经让步于盲目骄傲。”此句承上启下,表明接下来讲的是盲目骄傲。go on a diet“节食”,在此可以引申为“精简规模”;quick-witted“机智灵敏的”;a golden age“黄金时代,鼎盛时期”。

      以上就是文都考研英语老师为大家梳理的2000年考研英语真题阅读Text 1后两段的要点。“应知学问难,在乎点滴勤。”阅读能力的提升在于日常的积累,大家平时一定多加练习,总结方法和规律,应用于实践。行动起来吧!在实践中提升自己,为考研以及将来的生活做好准备。
