略读时,要读段落的第一句和第二句,直到完全理解其义,因为第一句往往是该段的主题句(topic sentence),而第二句往往是对前句的延伸(extension)或进一步的解释(explanation)。通过略读把握文章大意扫读(scanning), 迅速浏览从第三句开始的后面部分, 搜寻对开头两句的支持句(supporting sentences), 同时注意文章中间是否有转折词(transition), 这些词常常会把文章的思路逆转或加入其它重要的信息。当读到段落的最后一句时, 我们又要使用略读, 这时必须再次放慢速度直到完全消化作者对段落的小结(conclusion), 有可能与主题句相反或引导读者进入下一个段落。通过扫读寻找特定信息或特定词组 To get general ideas1 What does the title “Michael Jordan–
Head and Shoulders Above the Rest!”
mean?
Our heads and shoulders are always
above the rest of the other parts of
body. So it means Michael is much
better than others. 2 What does “Wilt the Stilt – the Tower of
Power!” mean?
(stilt: one of two long pieces of wood with
supports for the feet which allow you to
stand and walk high above the ground)
Have you ever seen people walk on stilts in the Spring Festival? They are taller than people who are not on stilts. Chamberlain was 217 centimeters. So it means he was not only tall but also full of power and magic on the basketball court.3 What do the two passages talk about?
