2022年考研人數逐年增加，競爭之激烈使得我們不得不加急復習的日程。眾所周知，閱讀理解占據了考研英語二100分試卷的一半分值，而考研英語閱讀文章大多來自英美國家的主流報刊雜志，所以如果能在日常就多多閱讀這些文章，對以后讀懂文章做對題目來說會大有裨益。但是對大多數備考的同學來說，剛開始投入復習，就去讀考試文章難度的新聞報刊，也是不現實、并且不符合循序漸進的學習規律的，所以我們會在每次推送中，給大家給出兩篇短文，一篇是初階水平（大致在初高中水平）；一篇是高階水平（四六級到考研水平）；同學們可以根據自己當前的情況，選擇其中一篇進行學習。
學習步驟如下：
1.不看漢語譯文自己看一遍短文做理解
2.看漢語譯文比對自己理解的意思與之出入
3.強化記憶重點單詞（以記憶其漢語意思為主）
初階文段
Ms.Bauer also said that several fast-food chains offer fruit-topped oatmeal and yogurt parfaits that make for satisfying and tasty snacks.
When in Rome,splurge strategically.
Trying the local cuisine, Ms. Bauer said, is a pleasurable part of any vacation. “You can and should let yourself enjoy one‘cheat’ food each day, but be selective and pick something that is unique to that destination,” she said.
短文翻譯
鮑爾還說不少連鎖快餐店都會提供上面帶有水果的燕麥酸奶冰點甜品，可以作為令人滿足又好吃的零食。
身處當地，要有策略地揮霍。
鮑爾說，嘗嘗當地的菜肴是任何一次度假令人心情愉快的部分。“你可以，也應該讓自己每天吃一次‘作弊’食物，但要有選擇性，挑選當地獨特的風味，”她說。

高階文段
That could mean veal Milanese in Milan, a lobster roll in Maine, a chocolate croissant in France and pad thai in Thailand. Stick to a reasonable portion of whatever you choose, and savor every bite.
Watch those sips.
Drinks don’t fill you up, and many are packed with sugar and calories.
Ms. Bauer said that it’s best to skip sweetened iced teas and lemonades throughout the day — seltzer flavored with fruit is an appealing alternative. When it comes to alcohol, many cocktails, including margaritas, can easily top 500 calories. Drink wine or a light beer instead. Or try a lower-sugar mixed drink such as vodka with club soda and a splash of fruit juice or a gin and tonic.
短文翻譯
這意味著米蘭的米蘭小牛肉、緬因州的龍蝦卷、法國的巧克力羊角包和泰國的泰式炒河粉。不管選擇吃什么，份量都要適中，要細細品味每一口。
注意入口的飲品。
飲料不能讓你有飽腹感，而且不少飲品都飽含糖分和卡路里。
鮑爾說最好一整天都別喝加了糖的冰茶和檸檬水——果味氣泡水是種頗具吸引力的替代之選。至于酒，包括瑪格利塔在內的許多雞尾酒很容易就會超過500卡路里。喝紅酒或淡啤作為代替，或者試試糖分較低的調酒，比如伏特加配蘇打水和一點果汁，或是金湯力酒。
