雅思阅读低分的3大基本原因分析
中国的烤鸭们普遍不熟识雅思的学术阅读模式，重技巧而轻实力，今日我给大家带来了雅思阅读低分泥沼的3大基本缘由分析,盼望能够关心到大家，下面我就和大家共享，来观赏一下吧。
雅思阅读低分泥沼的3大基本缘由分析 助你出坑
调查的结果是这些同学的问题主要在阅读，由于听力和口语分数在到英国之后有了明显提高，语言环境和实践对于这两项语言技能提升特别关键。唯独阅读，他们无论在中国还是英国，分数始终没有超过6。而且阅读还影响了他们的写作，导致分数消失瓶颈，提升缺乏后劲。
调查结果表明，这些同学的阅读问题主要是以下几个方面：
第一、不了解学术阅读，阅读方法不科学
剑桥官方很明确地在雅思网站上说明：雅思阅读考的是学术场景下的阅读，而这种阅读方式是中国英语教学没有强调和特地训练过的。
所以，这些同学不知道什么叫做Skimming for gist(快速扫瞄把握文章主旨)和Scan for details(快速扫描特定细节)的阅读方式;不明白怎样去区分事实信息和主观论点;更不知道怎样去对文章去进行结构扫描，了解文章线索和脉络(Frame work of the Text, Contextual Clues, Coherence and Cohesion)。
这些阅读技能和策略(Reading Strategies)的缺乏导致他们阅读的时候不分主次，不会敏捷调整阅读速度，只观察个别细节而不能把握它们之间的规律关系。所以他们在阅读里只能解出那些针对个别细节的小题目，对阅读技能要求比较高的题型，比通如List of Headings(段标题，考察文章线索结构和把握段落章主题的力量)和True / False /NotGiven题(考察观点与事实、主观与客观的区分以及态度等)，就明显力不从心。
雅思 依据我当时的统计，他们在这些题目上的正确率不足50%。在最近的雅思阅读里，这两种题型加起来超过了总题量的一半，这样的正确率当然没法得到好分数。
其次、偏重解题技巧Skills，忽视阅读实力Competence
由于焦急尽快出国留学，所以这些同学往往是在已经拿到Conditionaloffer的状况预备应考，并必需在Deadline之前提交合格的雅思成果。这样的学习方案使他们往往只在考试前去“抱佛脚”，听说有什么“阅读秘笈”、“9分方案”就趋之若骛。
这些技巧一学就会，一开头在他们还不熟识雅思的状况下也显得特别有效——做第一张卷子得4分，了解技巧后再做立刻就升到5分。实际上并不是这些阅读技巧有多少奇妙之处，只是由生疏到熟识以后自然的提高，然而同学们还是对此深信不疑。
但是雅思阅读究竟是现在全部出国英语考试中阅读单项最难的一个，文章最长、题型最多、难度最大，对于阅读技能的考察特别全面深化。
迷信解题技巧而忽视实力的后果就像Castle in the air，吹得越神的技巧最终也让人摔得越惨。我在阅读单项上考过9——绝不是全凭技巧。所以我在课上从不鼓吹说9分靠万能技巧;相反，我还常常提示同学：技巧有局限，9分靠实力。
第三、“以考试定学习”，没有积累
Deadline的压力导致这些同学仓促考试、匆忙预备，结果就是第一次考试大都没过关。第一次失利后，Deadline的压力又迫使他们立刻去报三个月后的考试。
因此，学习方案完全是考试型的，而没有真正积累型的学习。把上次已经证明失败的做法简洁重复一遍而没有总结阅历教训，也没有提高和改进，这又有什么意义呢?
阅读是最需要积累的一项语言力量，词汇、句法乃至常见文章写法、思路，没有一段时间循序渐进的积累和力量的提升，阅读的力量——Competence就不会有实质的提高。
只凭技巧(Skills)没有实力(Competence)是不行能有长期的效果的。事实也证明：在技巧发挥到了极致，他们的分数上升也就到了头：长期徘徊在6分以下，就是由于他们的阅读实力还没有达到相应水准的原因。
雅思阅读机经真题解析-Hunting Perfume in Madagascar!
A
Ever since the unguentari (古罗马时期玻璃器皿) plied their trade in ancient Rome, perf
umers have to keep abreast of changing fashions. These days they have several thousand ingredients to choose from when creating new scents, but there is always demand for new combinations. The bigger the palette of smells, the better the perfumers chance of creating something fresh and appealing. Even with everyday products such as shampoo and soap, kitchen cleaners and washing powders, consumers are becoming increasingly fussy. And many of todays fragrances have to survive tougher treatment than ever before, resisting the destructive power of bleach or a high temperature wash cycle. Chemists can create new smells from synthetic molecules, and a growing number of the odours on the perfumers palette are artificial. But nature has been in the business far longer.

The island of Madagascar (马达加斯加) is an evolutionary hot spot; 85% of its plants are unique, making it an ideal source for novel fragrances. Last October, Quest International, a company that develops fragrances for everything from the most delicate p
erfumes to cleaning products, sent an expedition to Madagascar in pursuit of some of natures most novel fragrances. With some simple technology, borrowed from the pollution monitoring industry, and a fair amount of ingenuity, the perfume hunters bagged 20 promising new aromas in the Madagascan rainforest. Each day the team set out from their hotel-a wooden hut lit by kerosene lamps, and trailed up and down paths and animal tracks, exploring the thick vegetation up to 10 meters on either side of the trail. Some smells came from obvious places, often big showy flowers within easy reach. Others were harder to pin down. “Often it was the very small flowers that were much more interesting,” says Clery. After the luxuriance (肥沃) of the rainforest, the little-known island of Nosy Hara was a stark, dry place-geologically and biologically very different from the mainland. “Apart from two beaches, the rest of the island is impenetrable, except by hacking through the bush, says Clery. One of the biggest prizes here was a sweet-smelling sap weeping from the gnarled branches of some ancient shrubby trees in the parched interior. So far no one has been able to identify the plant.
