考研英语阅读：如何利用标点符号
1986-处于出题的摸索阶段，文章接近大学英语四级水平，那我们可以学习其中的单词和句子。-文章特别规整，答案特征出题位置开始形成，也就是说我们的解题技巧开始适用。-文章专业度偏高。阅读理解命题思路形成，-至今 没有太大的变化。开始英语一的阅读更侧重于基础。20开始英语二也正式开始。那基础阶段(3-5月底)肖老师首推的复习文章是1986年-的文章。为什么呢?因为这些文章的单词和长难句在后面的文章中一直在出现。这阶段我们强化基础，淡化解题技巧。在文章中学习和掌握高频词和重点短语，熟悉长难句类型对我们暑期开始的技巧提升有很好的作用。那今天就带大家学习下标点符号。
这是大家很容易忽略的阅读技巧。在一篇450左右的文章中真正有用的信息是150-200字。而基础阶段我们学习标点符号就有助于我们简化文章以及提高对有用信息的敏感度。
在考研英语的阅读中常用的标点符号有6个：逗号、冒号、破折号、分号、引号和括号。下面肖老师一一给大家讲解：
1.逗号
要注意的是在考研阅读的文章中，我们要注意几乎每篇文章都有的逗号尤其是2个逗号的情况。2个逗号中间一般为插入语，可以跳读。例如
For a while it looked as though the making of semiconductors, which America had invented and which sat at the heart of the new computer age, was going to be the next casualty.(，阅读1)半导体制造业是美国发明的，而且是新的电脑时代的核心产业，一度被认为会成为下一个受害者。
2. 冒号
其作用是进一步解释说明前句中的事物或现象，也就是说冒号前后是一个从抽象到具体的过程。如果冒号前面的内容读懂了，后面的内容不管多长都可以不用看。
There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. (2000，阅读4)进行进化式自杀还有一种办法：一直活着、少生孩子。
3.分号
一个分号表示语意并列，2个或2个以上的分号表示结构的并列。有时可利用分号推测句子意思或作者态度。
This is no flash in the pan; over the past couple of years, inflation has been consistently lower than expected in Britain and America. (1997，阅读5)这不是昙花一现，在过去几年里，英国和美国的通货膨胀率始终低于预测水平。
4.破折号
两破折号中为插入语时，看暂时跳读
But in the past 100, 000 years―even the past 100 years―our lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. (2000，阅读B)可是过去10万年――甚至在过去1里，我们的生很活发生了变化，但我们的身体却没有改变。
5. 引号
三个作用：可表示讽刺，用在引号内容是褒义词的情况下。“Scientific” creationism;可用于引用某人观点：“”I struck gold,” says Redmon. (，阅读1);也表示专有名词
I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of “juggling your life,” and making the alternative move into “downshifting” brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status. (，阅读5)
我发现，放弃那种“为生活打拼”的信条，转向“减压减速”的生活，将会带来高于经济收入和社会地位的'回报;Linda Kelsey不堪压力，辞掉She杂志社编辑职务的消息备受关注之后，她或许与我有同样的发现。
有点要引起重视的是，若是文章中有引号而这内容又出现在选项中则不能选，这种情况至少有5次。在课堂上我们会一一讲解。
6.括号
一是可用于解释前词意义
Drugs (substances) that affect the central nervous system and alter perception, mood, and behavior are known as psychoactive substances. (1997，阅读3)
影响中枢神经系统、改变感知觉和行为的药物(物质)属于对神经起显著作用的物质
二是补充说明。这点希望我们考生注意。因为考研的文章都是经过命题专家改写的。如果括号内的相关信息没有用，那就可以直接删掉，那既然保留说明一定有用。正确选项和错误选项都喜欢在此命题。希望同学们能提高对此符号的敏感度。
这6大标点符号的出现频率都很高，希望在这几个月内大家以1986-19的文章多加练习成为自己简化文章的一大利器。
2015考研英语阅读 标点符号的秘密
1. 句号
句子是用来分割句子的，以句子为单位把一个长的段落切分成不同的句型。
2. 逗号

3. 冒号
冒号前后是从抽象到具体的过程，后面进一步是具体补充说明前面的.内容。若是在阅读过程中对前面的内容读不懂，可以借助于冒号后面的内容帮助理解。
4. 分号
分号前后四并列关系，包括结构上并列和语义上的并列。
5. 破折号
两个破折号之间或者一个破折号之后的内容是起补充说明作用的，在阅读过程中都可以跳过去不看。

Certainly people do not seem less interested in success and its signs now than formerly. Summer homes， European travel， BMWs ― the locations， place names and name brands may change， but such items do not seem less in demand today than a decade or two years ago. What has happened is that people cannot confess fully to their dreams， as easily and openly as once they could， lest they be thought pushing， acquisitive and vulgar. Instead， we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles， which now more than ever seem in ample supply： the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home； the publisher of radical books who takes his meals in three-star restaurants； the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life， whose own children are enrolled in private schools. For such people and many more perhaps not so exceptional， the proper formulation is， “Succeed at all costs but avoid appearing ambitious.”
69. Some people do not openly admit they have ambition because ________.
[A] they think of it as immoral
[B] their pursuits are not fame or wealth
[C] ambition is not closely related to material benefits
[D] they do not want to appear greedy and contemptible
（2）冒号：其解释说明或者高度概括。
【真题回放-Text4】
① It never rains but it pours. ② Just as bosses and boards have finally sorted out their worst accounting and compliance troubles， and improved their feeble corporation governance， a new problem threatens to earn them C especially in America C the sort of nasty headlines that inevitably lead to heads rolling in the executive suite： data insecurity. ③ Left， until now， to odd， low-level IT staff to put right， and seen as a concern only of data-rich industries such as banking， telecoms and air travel， information protection is now high on the boss's agenda in businesses of every variety.
36. The statement “It never rains but it pours” is used to introduce
[A] the fierce business competition.
[B] the feeble boss-board relations.
[C] the threat from news reports.
[D] the severity of data leakage.
（3）括号：其解释说明作用。
【真题回放-Text2】
① Anyway， the townsfolk can't understand why the Royal Shakespeare Company needs a subsidy. （②The theatre has broken attendance records for three years in a row.③ Last year its 1，431 seats were 94 percent occupied all year long and this year they'll do better.）④ The reason， of course， is that costs have rocketed and ticket prices have stayed low.
29. According to the townsfolk， the RSC deserves no subsidy because ________.
[A] ticket prices can be raised to cover the spending
[B] the company is financially ill-managed
[C] the behavior of the actors is not socially acceptable
[D] the theatre attendance is on the rise
（4）破折号：两个破折号之间的内容往往充当插入语，其解释说明租用；一个破折号后面的内容，通常表示解释说明或者高度概括，作用类似于冒号。
【真题回放-Text2】
Fortunately， the White House is starting to pay attention. But it's obvious that a majority of the president's advisers still don't take global warming seriously. Instead of a plan of action， they continue to press for more research ― a classic case of “paralysis by analysis.”
28. What does the author mean by “paralysis by analysis” （Last line， Paragraph 4）？
[A] Endless studies kill action.
[B] Careful investigation reveals truth.
[C] Prudent planning hinders progress.
[D] Extensive research helps decision-making.

【真题回放-Text4】
① It's no surprise that Jennifer Senior's insightful， provocative magazine cover story， “I love My Children， I Hate My Life，” is arousing much chatter C nothing gets people talking like the suggestion that child rearing is anything less than a completely fulfilling， life-enriching experience.② Rather than concluding that children make parents either happy or miserable， Senior suggests we need to redefine happiness： instead of thinking of it as something that can be measured by moment-to-moment joy， we should consider being happy as a past-tense condition. ③ Even though the day-to-day experience of raising kids can be soul-crushingly hard， Senior writes that “the very things that in the moment dampen our moods can later be sources of intense gratification and delight.”
36.Jennifer Senior suggests in her article that raising a child can bring
[A]temporary delight
[B]enjoyment in progress
[C]happiness in retrospect
[D]lasting reward

3.分号
一个分号表示语意并列，2个或2个以上的分号表示结构的并列。有时可利用分号推测句子意思或作者态度。

(2001，阅读5)
我发现，放弃那种“为生活打拼”的信条，转向“减压减速”的生活，将会带来高于经济收入和社会地位的回报;Linda Kelsey不堪压力，辞掉She杂志社编辑职务的消息备受关注之后，她或许与我有同样的发现。
有点要引起重视的是，若是文章中有引号而这内容又出现在选项中则不能选，这种情况至少有5次。在课堂上我们会一一讲解。
