2012年英语一阅读

比较难。

学好英语的方法

1、要想学好英语首先就要煅炼好自己的听力。环境 很重要，在平时选择多听，多看，比如多看些英语电影，多听些英语听力，提高听力。

2、其次是要培养自己的语感。这就要求我们平时结合在听的基础上，要多说。条件允许的话，我们可以多交些外国朋友，坚持用英语交流，创造良好的语感环境。

如果不能的话可以多多参与一些比如英语角之类的培训，给自己创造条件。语言是用来交流的，多说是学好英语的根本。

3、然后是充实自身的单词库。单词是学好英语的关键一环，英语是由一个个单词和词汇组成的。

如何记忆英语单词：

1、中英结合巧联想。

例如记忆单词chat，你把它拆开，chat=cha+t，cha是汉字茶的拼音，t是英语的茶tea的发音，两杯茶一放，两个人开始聊天。chat就是聊天的意思。微信代号wechat，就是取我们聊天吧的意思。

2、字母形象联想法。

scarf=s+car+f，弯弯的s象铁丝，car就是小气车，铁线一划，小汽车就受伤了，scar意思是伤痕。围巾围在脖子上的形状像连笔写的f，为什么要围住脖子呢？你可以想象脖子上有一块伤疤啊。scarf意思是围巾，你将终身难忘。

3、词型相似的单词放在一起对比记忆。

比如photo-与phono-，前者表示图象，后者表示声音，它们原本都是前缀。photo呢，有个t，是与图（tu）有联系的；phono呢有个n，它和音（yin）有联系的哦。

考研英语一2012年第二篇确实好难。考研英语的学习方法如下所示：

1、词汇方向与侧重点不同，考研会考一些常见词汇的非常见意思。 文章选材和命题思路不同，考研多为科技论文和社论等文章。

2、六级试题题量大，要求速度快。考研试题题量相对少，但比较深，要求透彻的理解和深入的思考。

题型的区别：

考研英语一的试题分三部分，包括英语知识运用、阅读理解和写作。英语二题型与英语一类似，但试题分四部分，包括英语知识运用、阅读理解、英译汉和写作。

Come on -Everybody’s doing it. That whispered message, half invitation and half forcing, is what most of us think of when we hear the words peer pressure. It usually leads to no good-drinking, drugs and casual sex. But in her new book Join the Club, Tina Rosenberg contends that peer pressure can also be a positive force through what she calls the social cure, in which organizations and officials use the power of group dynamics to help individuals improve their lives and possibly the word.Rosenberg, the recipient of a Pulitzer Prize, offers a host of example of the social cure in action: In South Carolina, a state-sponsored antismoking program called Rage Against the Haze sets out to make cigarettes uncool. In South Africa, an HIV-prevention initiative known as LoveLife recruits young people to promote safe sex among their peers. The idea seems promising，and Rosenberg is a perceptive observer. Her critique of the lameness of many pubic-health campaigns is spot-on: they fail to mobilize peer pressure for healthy habits, and they demonstrate a seriously flawed understanding of psychology.” Dare to be different, please don’t smoke!” pleads one billboard campaign aimed at reducing smoking among teenagers-teenagers, who desire nothing more than fitting in. Rosenberg argues convincingly that public-health advocates ought to take a page from advertisers, so skilled at applying peer pressure. But on the general effectiveness of the social cure, Rosenberg is less persuasive. Join the Club is filled with too much irrelevant detail and not enough exploration of the social and biological factors that make peer pressure so powerful. The most glaring flaw of the social cure as it’s presented here is that it doesn’t work very well for very long. Rage Against the Haze failed once state funding was cut. Evidence that the LoveLife program produces lasting changes is limited and mixed. There’s no doubt that our peer groups exert enormous influence on our behavior. An emerging body of research shows that positive health habits-as well as negative ones-spread through networks of friends via social communication. This is a subtle form of peer pressure: we unconsciously imitate the behavior we see every day. Far less certain, however, is how successfully experts and bureaucrats can select our peer groups and steer their activities in virtuous directions. It’s like the teacher who breaks up the troublemakers in the back row by pairing them with better-behaved classmates. The tactic never really works. And that’s the problem with a social cure engineered from the outside: in the real world, as in school, we insist on choosing our own friends. 21. According to the first paragraph, peer pressure often emerges as [A] a supplement to the social cure [B] a stimulus to group dynamics [C] an obstacle to school progress [D] a cause of undesirable behaviors 22. Rosenberg holds that public advocates should [A] recruit professional advertisers [B] learn from advertisers’ experience [C] stay away from commercial advertisers [D] recognize the limitations of advertisements 23. In the author’s view, Rosenberg’s book fails to [A] adequately probe social and biological factors [B] effectively evade the flaws of the social cure [C] illustrate the functions of state funding [D]produce a long-lasting social effect 24. Paragraph 5shows that our imitation of behaviors [A] is harmful to our networks of friends [B] will mislead behavioral studies [C] occurs without our realizing it [D] can produce negative health habits 25. The author suggests in the last paragraph that the effect of peer pressure is [A] harmful [B] desirable [C] profound [D] questionable
