眼下正是考研英语复习打基础的关键时期，很多同学都处在背单词，学语法的阶段。的确，词汇和语法是我们学好考研英语的基石，因为考研英语的文章 中多是长难句，对长难句的分析理解，直接影响到我们的做题结果。但是，这个阶段也要同时开始对早年阅读真题的精读精析。那么，阅读该怎么样去做呢？老师建 议大家用好“文章分析三步法”。

　　第一步：先用15分钟左右的时间自主的做一遍，做的过程中标记出你判断的每个题的出处。做完之后对答案，搞清楚每个题，对为什么对，错又为什么错。

　　第二步：精析分析文章，划出生词和难句，查出并标记生词的词义，这个过程至少得半少时以上。对长难句进行分析，理顺每句话的意思。要做到文章中没有生词，没有不懂得句子。

　　第三步：总结回顾整篇文章的逻辑构架和写作思路，再次回到题目上来，查看每一个题目的出题点在哪，以及选项是如何设置的，包括正确选项的设置和错误选项的设置。这个可为以后做题积累经验，非常有必要！另外切记，无论选项如何设置，都要以题干为导向来确定答案。

　　我们一起来看一道例题：

　　The researchers studied the behaviour of female brown capuchin monkeys. They look cute. They are good-natured, cooperative creatures, and they share their food tardily. Above all, like their female human counterparts, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males. Such characteristics make them perfect candidates for Dr. Brosnan’s and Dr. de Waal’s study. The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for slices of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate but adjoining chambers, so that each could observe what the other was getting in return for its rock, their behaviour became markedly different.

　　2.Female capuchin monkeys were chosen for the research most probably because they are ________。

　　[A] more inclined to weigh what they get

　　[B] attentive to researchers’ instructions

　　[C] nice in both appearance and temperament

　　[D] more generous than their male companions

　　【解析】我们由题干可以看出，要求找出选择雌性卷尾猴做实验的原因，并且是most probably最有可能的原因，由此推定答案应该定位在Above all, like their female human counterparts, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males. 所以答案选择A.

　　阅读是考研英语的重头戏，老师建议大家用好“文章分析三步法”，在基础阶段多做题，养成正确的做题思路，提高阅读理解能力，积累阅读经验。记住：考研，贵在坚持
