俗话说“得阅读者得高分”，阅读在考研英语试卷中占很大比重，考研英语想拿高分，必须掌握阅读题的解题技巧。我们今天来分析下2013年考研英语真题阅读text3，从中给大家讲下阅读题的答题技巧和思路。

    首先当我们拿到这篇文章时，我们可以先精读各段首句，重点精读首段与尾段的首句，了解我们文章的主旨大意，首段首句为Up until a few decades ago, our visions of the future were largely - though by no means uniformly - glowingly positive. 末段首句为This long perspective makes the pessimistic view of our prospects seem more likely to be a passing fad. 我们可以得出主旨：我们对未来的期望是乐观的。带着这样的主题我们可以直接入题，那么31题，我们红色字体划出题干中的关键词，判断此题是因果细节题：

　　31. Our vision of the future used to be inspired by_____.

　　[A] our desire for lives of fulfillment

　　[B] our faith in science and technology

　　[C] our awareness of potential risks

　　[D] our belief in equal opportunity

　　第二步：根据题干中的关键词找出原文的定位信息，此处注意是used to，过去受什么的启发，按照文章的出题顺序，我们不难定位：Up until a few decades ago, our visions of the future were largely - though by no means uniformly - glowingly positive. Science and technology would cure all the ills of humanity, leading to lives of fulfillment and opportunity for all. 第一句是总结句，我们对未来持乐观的态度，第二句解释原因，our faith in science and technology正是对第二句的概括，选B。

　　分析干扰项：A第二句的偷换概念，C张冠李戴，是对未来悲观态度的原因， D是第二句的偷换概念。

　　32. The IUCN’s “Red List” suggest that human being are_____.

　　[A] a sustained species

　　[B] a threaten to the environment

　　[C] the world’s dominant power

　　[D] a misplaced race

　　用同样的步骤做32题，本题是推理题，定位到原文Look up Homo sapiens in the "Red List" of threatened species of the International Union for the Conversation of Nature (IUCN) ,and you will read: "Listed as Least Concern as the species is very widely distributed, adaptable, currently increasing, and there are no major threats resulting in an overall population decline." 重点看引号的内容，sustained是对very widely distributed, adaptable, currently increasing, and there are no major threats的高度概括，选A。

　　分析干扰项：B是过度推断;C无中生有;D张冠李戴。

　　33. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 5?

　　[A] Arc helps limit the scope of futurological studies.

　　[B] Technology offers solutions to social problem.

　　[C] The interest in science fiction is on the rise.

　　[D] Our immediate future is hard to conceive.

　　同样步骤看33题，本题是细节题，我们要先明白第五段的主题句，然后从选项着手，定位选项的关键词，并从第五段中找定位信息。Our immediate future is hard to conceive. 是对it may be easier to think about such lengthy timescales than about the more immediate future.的反向同义改写，选D。

　　分析干扰项：A无中生有，B 是对Arc, a new publication dedicated to the near future.的偷换概念，曲解题意，C是对The potential evolution of today's technology,的过度夸大。

　　34. To ensure the future of mankind, it is crucial to_____.

　　[A] explore our planet’s abundant resources

　　[B] adopt an optimistic view of the world

　　[C] draw on our experience from the past

　　[D] curb our ambition to reshape history

　　此题为事实细节题，定位到第六段的the past holds the key to the future，draw on our experience from the past是此句的完美替换，选C。

　　分析干扰项：A无中生有，B偷换概念，曲解题意，D 偷换概念。

　　35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

　　[A] Uncertainty about Our Future

　　[B] Evolution of the Human Species

　　[C] The Ever-bright Prospects of Mankind

　　[D] Science, Technology and Humanity

　　此题是主旨大意题，就像刚才我们找主题句那样，我们同样可以定位首段首句为Up until a few decades ago, our visions of the future were largely - though by no means uniformly - glowingly positive. 末段首句为This long perspective makes the pessimistic view of our prospects seem more likely to be a passing fad. 可以选出C。

　　分析干扰项：A是作者反驳的观点，不能作为文章的观点，B文章中的一个论据，D 太宽泛，全篇的重点是人类未来。

　　希望以上的解析能帮助大家更好的理解这篇文章，文都老师在此希望广大的2015考研学员早点开始备考，养成好的单词复习习惯，贵在坚持，认真学习，耐心练习。最后恭祝您快乐学习，顺利通过考研!
