点评 一、速读全文,了解大意知主题.
  阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面.阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力.考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质.
二、看题干,带着问题读文章.
  首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等.其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位.此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率.
  三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题.
  在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义.要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全.推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等.
  四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎.
  猜词是应用英语的重要能力.它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇.我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义.

The word "OK" is the most frequently spoken all-purpose expression on the planet — and it's turning 176 years old on March 23, 2015. The term was born during a 19th-century abbreviation(缩写) craze and went on to international fame with its own hand gesture.

Last year, Henry Nass, a 64-year-old retired English teacher, a New Yorker, had spent the last few weeks handing out cards championing "Global OK Day" in advance of the coming anniversary.

"No matter where people are from they use the word 'OK,' but they don't know where it comes from," says Nass. "The problem is because it's just, you know, OK."

The word is OK, perhaps, but its history is definitely better than average. Late etymologist Allen Walker Read traced the two-letter word to 1839, when editors at the Boston Morning Post signed off on articles as “all correct” with a simple word “OK”.

The word made it into print on March 23 of that year, in an article against a rival editor in Providence who had stated wrongly that a band of Bostonians heading to New York would pass through the Rhode Island capital (Providence).

"We said not a word about our team passing 'through the city' of Providence," the Morning Post reported. "O.K. — all correct."

The humor of the Providence-Boston joke has been lost to history — but the word OK took off from there, soon connoting(隐含) agreement, acceptance, averageness, quality or likability.

By 1840, it served as a slogan for President Martin Van Buren's unsuccessful reelection campaign. “Old Kinderhook is OK,” posters stated, a reference to the eighth president's birthplace and his supporters' belief in his satisfactory performance.

1.Why did Henry Nass hand out cards?

A. To let people understand the history of the word “OK”.

B. To call on people to use the word “OK” properly.

C. To appeal to people to celebrate OK Day.

D. To attract people’s attention.

2.What does the author want to convey in Paragraph 4?

A. The history of the word “OK” is known to average people.

B. The history of the word “OK” is unfamiliar to people.

C. People frequently use the word “OK” in history.

D. People are fond of the word “OK” in history.

3.What does the underlined phrase “took off” in Paragraph 7 probably mean?

A. Got off B. Set up

C. Moved off D. Became popular

4.We can learn from the text that Kinderhook is of the eighth American president.

A. the name B. the birthplace

C. the policy D. the belief
