【摘要】英语六级考试对大部分考试是一门很头疼的科目，到底该怎么样复习才能顺利通过考试呢?下面看威廉希尔app 四六级频道为广大考友编辑了“2013英语六级阅读试题分析及复习策略辅导”，希望能助考友一臂之力!
变化趋势
题材生僻
相对于往年的选材，这次考试的题材较为生僻，大部分考生可能只对阅读的第一篇“维生素对人体的作用”有一些背景知识。这就要求考生平时多接触不同题材的文章了解各方面知识，如相关科普知识、经济、生活和社会文化等。本次考试的passage one 是一篇关于维生素对人类健康作用的文章，从结构上分析是典型的新老观点型文章。文章一开始提出一种老观点，认为服用的维生素人体难吸收，对人类健康无益。然后作者给出新看法，也就是服用适量的维生素是有益的，而整篇文章也就围绕这一新看法展开。Passage two 探讨了妇女工作对婚姻和家庭的影响。文章也是给出了两种不同的观点，但是作者并没有简单地肯定或否定某一方的观点，而是认为双方都有可取之处，这是一种复杂的态度。这在以往的六级试题中是少见的，在笔者的记忆中这种复杂态度的文章只在1999年1月份的六级试题(passage one)中出现过。值得注意的是，在国外的一些标准化考试(如 GRE 等)这一类的文章是很常见的。这在一定程度反映了六级阅读今后的发展趋势：与国外的标准化考试接轨。Passage three 探讨了人类本性(human nature)的问题，也是新老观点型的文章。结构非常简单，难点主要在于文章的内容考生可能不很熟悉。Passage four 介绍了一种新的医疗技术(virtual reality)。这类介绍新技术、新发明的科普文章结构都较简单，主要围绕新技术和新发明作用、原理、优点、意义和影响来展开。大家可以看一看 2002年1月六级考题的passage one,熟悉一下这种文章的套路。总体来看，六级阅读的文章集中在科技知识、经济生活和人文社会三个方面，可以有意识地加强一下这几个方面的背景知识。一定的背景知识有助于考生理解文章的内容。但需要强调的是，考生答题时要严格根据文章的内容作答，千万不可根据自己所掌握的背景知识想当然地答题，这是在做阅读题中一定要把握的一点。
主要题型
从题目的类型和难度来看：主要的题型仍是细节题、推断题(包括词义推测)和主旨题。本次考试细节题主要考查了以下几个方面。
①对实验结果和数据分析结论的考查，如passage one的23题，passage two 的27题。
②对强对比内容的考查，如passage two 的28、29题。
③对特殊标点的考查，如passage four 的39题，笔者对历年六级试题总结发现：只要一句话中出现两个破折号，这句话就经常成为考点。
④对段末句的考查，如passage four的40题。细节题的解题关键在于定位，只要找到题干在文章中的位置，一般不会出错。而在六级阅读中定位是比较容易的，因为阅读顺序和出题顺序基本上是一致的。有一点需要指出，就是考生要善于把握题干中的隐藏信息。比如本次考试passage three 的32 和35题，这两道题实际上是对文中新老观点的考查，但题干中并没有出现标志时间的词，而是通过时态来隐讳表明，如果考生没有注意到这一点解题就会出现困难，特别是第35题。推断题的难度比以前有明显提高，例如passageone的21题和passage four 的36题，就要求考生对文章首句的隐藏含义有深刻的理解，要能够真正地read between lines，才会答对这两道题。再比如passage three 的33 题，考查作者引用名人观点的作用，难度也较大，它要求考生在读文章的时候，不仅要看懂文章的意思，更能准确理解作者的写作意图，明白作者的行文逻辑。词义推测题本次考试考了两道，分别是passage two的26题和passage three 的34题，解题的关键是根据上下文的逻辑关系来推断，难度不大。
应对策略
1.先读文章后题目的题干，抓住问题的主干，然后全文通读文章。不求了解细节，必须把握大意，特别注意以“段”为单位，抓住段落主题句。最好同时扫描考点标志词，圈划出标志词附近关键实词，将考点一网打尽。
2.通过问题返回文章找出所问的语言点。看考题时，首先要分清考题的题型。分清题型后，根据题干和选项中的信号词，回到原文定位，仔细阅读相关句。这时充分利用在原文的圈划出的标志词，快速定位。回读的内容不需要全和多，在掌握大意的基础上，只读相关句即可。
3.在找到考点的情况下，根据不同题型的特点和解题技巧选出正确答案。注意干扰选项的特点，如“无中生有”，“答非所问”、“张冠李戴”、“偷梁换柱”、“过犹不及”、排除错误选项选出正确答案。
下面以2003年12月考试的第二篇文章为例，详细说明阅读的应对策略。
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Some futurologists have assumed that the vast upsurge(剧增)of women in the workforce may portend a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The converse(反面)of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriage. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to postpone marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy rebounds, the number of marriages also rises.
Coincident with the increase in women working outside the home is the increase in divorce rates. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife"s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible. Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. Given high unemployment, inflationary problems, and slow growth in real earnings, a working wife can increase household income and relieve some of these pressing financial burdens. By raising afamily"s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family"s financial and emotional stability.
Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.
Also, a major part of women"s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. With higher earning capacity and status occupations outside of the home comes the capacity to exercise power within the family. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities.
文章解析：本文是一篇对比文，文章讨论了女性的外出工作对婚姻的两种相反的影响。首段前两句表明专家观点：工作女性的剧增可能预示着拒绝婚姻，后半段又提出转折，工作女性的剧增可能鼓励婚姻。第二段两种相反观点继续讨论女性的外出工作对婚姻影响。第三段支持两种相反观点的两种相反的心理因素。最后一段，随着工作女性的经济能力的提高，女性在家庭的地位上升可能导致两种相反结果。近年考试对比型的文章出现频繁，包括两种观点的议论文和两种事物的说明文，特点是平行论述，没有主次之分，作者不发表态度和结论，一般两种观点的开头可当作文章主旨。 26. The word “portend” (Line 2, Para.1) is closest in meaning to “_____”.A) defy B) signal C) suffer from D) result from
词义题 从文章第一句话大部分考生都不难理解portend是预示的意思。但是要知道正确选项B)signal也有显示的意思，需要背到字典上signal动词形式的第三个意思。要求考生不能局限于一词一义，而要熟练掌握大纲词汇的每一个解释。A) defy不服从, 反抗 C) suffer from忍受, 遭受 D) result from由……产生。27. It is said in the passage that when the economy slides,_____.
A) men would choose working women as their marriage partners
B) more women would get married to seek financial security
C) even working women would worry about their marriages
D) more people would prefer to remain single for the time being
细节题 题干的the economy slides等于原文的economic downturns。定位在Data show that economic downturns tend to postpone marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead.数据显示经济低迷时期人们倾向推迟婚姻，因为双方不能承担一个家庭或者担心更窘迫的日子。只有D)符合原文意思。A B C 都是“无中生有”和“答非所问”。28. If women find fulfillment through work outside the home,_____.
