考研英语二阅读理解真题题型分析

2014考研英语二真题阅读理解整体分析分析：综合来说今年的阅读理解符合考研英语二大纲的难度水平，或许有些同学会因为第四篇阅读中出现的一些专业词汇和一词多义现象所难到，但只要静心阅读就不太会出现理解上的障碍。2014年考研英语阅读四篇文章的出处分别是：《经济学人》的《金钱和幸福》(Moneyandhappiness);《星报在线》的《怎样改善自己的相貌》(Howwereallyrateourlooks);《劳伦斯日报》的《科学发现情绪会影响眼泪的化学成分》;《英国卫报》的《综合开支审查可能会扭转房市危机》(Comprehensivespendingreviewcouldturnthehousingcrisisaround)同样，考研命题组对这四篇文章都有适当的删减和修改，但并没改变原文意思，考生不用担心会有过难理解的句子出现。从以上分析不难看出，考研英语命题的选材依旧偏向于各大外媒报纸中的经典文章，题材多样且具有趣味性。这就要求考生在平时的复习的过程中多浏览国外著名报纸以扩展自身的知识面，同时提升自己的阅读能力。针对题源出处的总结问题，考研1号系列考研英语一真题书《考研真相》和考研英语二真题书《考研圣经》，对历年真题的出处都有系统的分析总结。考生可参考这两本真题解析书中的详细分析给自己制定一个合适的课外预读计划，这样循序渐进、长期积累定会有意想不到的效果。Text1原文标题：《金钱和幸福》(Moneyandhappiness)刊登时间：Jun22nd2013原文节选：WHATwouldyoudowith$590m?ThisisnowaquestionforGloriaMacKenzie,an84-year-oldwidowwhorecentlyemergedfromhersmall,tin-roofedhouseinFloridatocollectthebiggestunpidedlotteryjackpotinhistory.TheblogosphereisfullofadviceforthisluckyPowerballpensioner.Butifshehopeshernew-foundlucrewillyieldlastingfeelingsoffulfilment,shecoulddoworsethanread“HappyMoney”byElizabethDunnandMichaelNorton.Thesetwoacademics—sheteachespsychologyattheUniversityofBritishColumbia;helecturesonmarketingatHarvardBusinessSchool—useanarrayofbehaviouralresearchtoshowthatthemostrewardingwaystospendmoneycanbecounterintuitive.Fantasiesofgreatwealthofteninvolvevisionsoffancycarsandpalatialhomesonremotebluffs.Yetsatisfactionwiththesematerialpurchaseswearsofffairlyquickly.Whatwasonceexcitingandnewbecomesold-hat;remorsecreepsin.Itisfarbettertospendmoneyonexperiences,sayMsDunnandMrNorton,likeinterestingtrips,uniquemealsorevengoingtothecinema.Thesepurchasesoftenbecomemorevaluablewithtime—asstoriesormemories—particularlyiftheyinvolvefeelingmoreconnectedtoothers.Thisslimvolumeispackedwithtipstohelpwageslavesaswellaslotterywinnersgetthemost“happinessbangforyourbuck”.Itseemsmostpeoplewouldbebetteroffiftheycouldshortentheircommutestowork,spendmoretimewithfriendsandfamilyandlessofitwatchingtelevision(somethingtheaverageAmericanspendsawhoppingtwomonthsayeardoing,andishardlyjol
