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。

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）

文段一

Sometimes it is easy to feel bad because you are going through tough times. You can be easily caught up by life problems that you forget to pause and appreciate the things you have. Only strong people prefer to smile and value their life instead of crying and complaining about something.

短文翻譯

有時，正因為經歷著困難，很容易就陷入不快了。此時，你會忘卻暫停，忘卻感激擁有的一切。只有堅強的人，才會笑對生活，而不是哭天搶地，滿嘴怨言。

重點單詞

pause [p??z]

v.&n.停頓; 停頓的時間

appreciate [??pri??ie?t]

instead of

代替，而不是……

complain about

文段 II

No matter how isolated you might feel and how serious the situation is, you should always remember that you are not alone. Try to keep in mind that almost everyone respects and wants to help you if you are trying to make a good change in your life, especially your dearest and nearest people. You may have a circle of friends who provide constant good humor, help and companionship. If you have no friends or relatives, try to participate in several online communities, full of people who are always willing to share advice and encouragement.

短文翻譯

不管覺得多么孤獨，事情多么嚴重，始終謹記：你并非孤身一人。一定記得：幾乎人人，尤其是你最親最近的人，只要你想改變，都愿意伸出援助之手。你可能還擁有一大幫朋友，他們不斷地逗樂、支持和陪伴著你。如果無親無友，你可以參加網絡社區。社區里滿是愿意提供建議，給予鼓勵的人。
