为了帮助考生们更好地备考雅思,留学网雅思栏目为大家带来雅思阅读提速技巧之眼动训练,希望对大家有所帮助哦!
雅思阅读究其本质是应试型阅读。而应试型阅读的目的就是为解题服务。分析雅思阅读的题目发现,貌似复杂的题目其实归结起来无外乎两种:主旨题与细节理解题。解题的过程实际上也就是两大快速阅读技巧的结合:略读(Skimming了解中心) +查读(Scanning查找细节)。
不过,相信大家在其他老师的课上或书籍中都接触过以上两种技巧,感觉大体相同:听着明白,用着糊涂。或者说不知道该如何skim或scan。其实, skimming 和scanning 都要求能快速准确地识别关键词或词组(定位速度)。而恰恰这一步是烤鸭所不熟悉和忽略的。比如,在以往教学中,每期我都会发现有不少同学定位速度非常慢。连人名、地名这样的专有名词都很难定位到。这肯定不是词汇量不足的问题。要真正提高阅读速度,必须首先提高定位速度。
这里给大家介绍一下扫视定位法,即变逐字、逐句阅读为字群、词群、意群阅读,用一目一行,一目多行等方式,以高于平时精读几倍乃至几十倍的速度扫视阅读材料,从而快速在原文中定位到题干中的关键词。具体做到:避免眼球没有规律的扫视; 避免中途回视;加快眼动速度,逐步扩大视知觉广度。 视知觉广度大,由于眼球注视时间短和中途回视的次数少(眼动速度快),阅读的平均速度就比较快。
以下练习是为提高眼动速度,加强对单词和词组的视觉感知而设计的。大家在练习时要抱着实验的心态,忘记对错误的担心,严格按时间要求完成训练。相信只要你认真练习,并且在做题时实践,一定会对雅思阅读有新的感悟。更或是顿悟?

各位,以上训练没任何技术含量。只要你有心,每天拿出15分钟时间实践操练,坚持两个星期,自然会得心应手。正所谓,操场上多流汗,战场上少流血啊。技能是练出来的, 潜力是逼出来的。技能的东西不要指望老师讲个课就好,而是要安排训练。记住这个道理技能是练出来的。学习的内容可以分为事理,知识,观点和技能。事理需要点拨,知识需要传授,观点需要灌输,技能需要练习。不论操作技能还是考试技能,都是练出来的。所以,要成功就要多付出汗水。
