There are too manyunknown words and as a result readi ng is simply not a pleasure. For some stude nts, eve n readi ngin their own Ian guage is a chore.Ha

27、ving a wide vocabulary is essential to making sense of written Ianguage. Of course, this isa circular argume nt, because the more you read the more vocabulary you lear n and the more wordsyou know the more easily you can read. Don t make the mistake of reading with your dictionarybeside you, looking

28、 up every single new or doubtful word. This is laborious and prevents you from practici ng the skill of predicti on.Sometimes in reading you find a word you know but the sense doesn t seem to fit in. This isnot surpris ing because words have so many mea nings and degrees of mea ning. What is more, p

29、artof their meaning is shaped by the words around them. Keep look ing at the surro unding words and ask ing yourself“ what sort of meaning would make sense here?”The more that people study the readi ng process, the better they can pass on to Ian guage learners a range of advice to choose from. Peopl

30、e have lear ned to read in all kinds of ways. Here is some in formati on that could help you pla n to be a better reader in the foreig n Ian guage you are study ing.1) Work out the general meaning firstWhen people read in a new Ianguage they often feel they must take a detailed approach, focusing in

31、 every word, particularly those they don know. They read as if they were using a microscope, look ing carefully at each of the small pieces (the in dividual words) , but not necessarily seeing the whole picture at first. This is called the “ bottm-up” approach. Other readers try to look first at the

32、 big picture (the“ -dpw n” approach, atte nding to in dividual brickson ly as n ecessary, a process that in volves some in tellige nt guesswork. Gen erally this sec ond approach is recomme nded by successful lear ners.2) In teractive readi ngAno ther way of thinking about read ing is to describe it

33、as an in teractive process, where the text brings something to you and you bring something to the text. Readers bring together all their knowledge of the world with what they see on the page in front of them. That is why, when reading in our own Ianguage, we don t need to read every word. We add mea

34、ning which is notactually stated.3) From supported reading to independent readingLan guage lear ners start by n eed ing con siderable support as they read. Textbooks supply this support in the form of in troduct ions that summaries the conten ts, glossaries, pictures, expla nati ons of new grammar p

35、oints. In your reading you need to move gradually from this support to reading more the text itself.51. According to the author,.A . looking up the dictionary is of great help for the understandingB. reading more promotes the gaining of vocabularyC. the more you read , the clearer the meaning isD. t

36、he amount of vocabulary is the key to reading52. Successful learners recommend.A . trying to look first at the big pictureB. looking carefully at each of the small piecesC. focusing on every wordD. “ bottomup ” approach53. The word “ chore ” in the first paragraph maybe means.A . an important aspect

37、 B . a difficult and tiring thing C . an easy questi on D . someth ing special 54 . You come across a new or doubtful word whe n you are readi ng, you can.A . just miss it and let it beB . keep look ing at the surrounding words C . look it up in the dict ionary each timeD. make sense of it with the
