很多考生在複習英語六級考試時都是毫無頭緒的，更別說有什麼複習閱讀理解部分的方法了。爲此本站小編爲大家帶來複習大學英語六級閱讀理解的方法。
一、先看題再看文
先看題再看文章，帶着題目讀文章，考生能夠在讀文時將簡單的題目先做出來，這樣可以節省更多時間，當簡單題全部處理完畢之後，剩下的難題可以再重新回到文章當中去找該問題出現的段落的內容，仔細閱讀思考。先題後文，稍後再文題同步，由簡入難一步一步解決。
二、找出關鍵詞並同義替換
閱讀一般考的內容都可以總結爲兩點，一點是直觀的：看到什麼，解釋什麼，選擇什麼;而另外一點則是通過直觀看到的內容，進行一個轉換之後發現原來這個東西可以用另外一個東西替代。
1、尋找關鍵詞
Since the mid-1970s, the enrollment of overseas students has increased at an annual rate of 3.9 percent.
由以往的真題總結可知，這道題目的的關鍵詞是句子中出現的兩個數據，而前一個數據時時間詞，相比較而言 3.9%的關鍵詞可能性更大一些，爲了節省時間，在考試時，考生就可以圍繞3.9%在上下文中展開尋找，一定能夠找到你所需要的信息。
2、同義替換
A series of books, mostly authored by Americans, warned...
這句話的含義是一個系列的書籍都是由美國作者來完成的，警告說……
A succession of books, mainly by Americans... Sounded the alarm
這是一句跟上一句幾乎是一模一樣，但是還是有很明顯的不同。在下一句中出現一個單詞叫succession，它意思是一個序列的，或者是一個系列的一撥兒的，看着類似成功，整句翻譯爲一個序列的書主要是由美國人來做。mainly換成了mostly，而warned，警告，被換成了sounded the alarm，“拉響警笛”或“拉響警報”。由此可見，同義替換對於解題是非常重要的，要做好這類題型還是需要大家平時多做積累。
閱讀理解的複習更多聚集在做題技巧和詞彙上，勤加練習是大家制勝的法寶，做得多才能總結的多，見的多才能識的'多，儘管老師爲大家提出了一些練習技巧，但是還是需要大家自身的堅持，希望大家能在考前做足準備功課。
英語六級閱讀理解的答題技巧如何在沒有足夠時間進行深入閱讀或文章太難而看不懂的情況下進行答題呢?今天小編向考生介紹一些緊急情況下的應試技巧。通過研究歷屆六級閱讀理解中的仔細閱讀題目，我們發現，在所列出的四個選項中，也有一些普遍性規律可循。如果考生了解、熟悉並掌握了這些規律，就可以找到做題時的“第六感覺”，達到所謂超常發揮的水平。如果考生來不及看文章，萬般無奈下憑這些規律可以選中不少正確選項。
(一)答案項中有絕對語氣詞的一般不是正確答案項。
這些語氣詞有：must，always，never，the most，all，only，have to，any，no，very，completely，none，hardly等。
例(1)One of the great changes brought about by the knowledge society is that _____.
A. the difference between the employee and the employer has become insignificant.

(分析：B、D兩項中均有must be，語氣太絕對化，故一般被排除。考生結合短文內容在剩下兩項中進行選擇，命中率就極高了。)
(二)選項中含有不十分肯定的語氣詞一般是正確答案項。
這些語氣詞有：can，could，may，should，usually，might，most(大多數)，more or less，relatively，be likely to，possible，whether or，not necessarily 等。

C. American businesses are more democratic than those in other countries

(分析：選項B中often 一詞，語氣委婉，不十分肯定，故爲答案。而其它三項中所表達出的語氣都明顯絕對化。)
例(2)According to the passage the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that _____.
A. society can't provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduates
B. high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education?
C. too many students have to earn their own living

(分析：答案項C中有have to，語氣太絕對化，故被排除。而A項中can't 的語氣則不十分絕對化，故爲答案。)
(三)選項中照抄原文的一般不是答案項，而同義替換的一般是選項。
例(1)According to Dr. David, Americans .
A. are ideally vigorous even under the pressure of life
B. often neglect the unsequences of sleep deficit
C. do not know how to relax themselves properly
D. can get by on 6.5 hours of sleep

A. Future man will be made of silicon instead of flesh and blood
B. Someday it will be difficult to tell a computer from a man
C. The reasoning power of computers has already surpassed that of man

(分析：A項句子基本上是原文詞句，C項中有already一詞，語氣太絕對化，故A、C兩項被排除。剩下B、D兩項，而D項中有不十分肯定語氣詞may not，故選D.)

例(2)The first paragraph is mainly about .
A. the teenagers'criticism of their parents
B. misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents
C. the dominance of the parents over their children
D. the teenagers'ability to deal with crisis
(分析：短文意思是講年青人有時批評、責備其父母，認爲父母對他們間誤解負大部分責任是自然的事。而B項意思是年青人和父母間的誤解;C項意思是父母對他們孩子的統治;D項指年輕人處理危機的能力。根據短文內容，可以明確看出，B、C、D三項內容都是從三個方面來論述短文觀點的，而A項則較全面地、有針對性地表達了文章的中心意思，故爲答案。)
(五)選項中表達意義較具體的、膚淺的(字面意思)一般不是答案項，而概括性的、抽象的、含義深刻的是答案項。

B. will not be as small as people expect
C. will prove to be a threat to the world
D. will not constitute as serious a problem as expected
(分析：選項A、B中都有small一詞，該詞在文中出現過，因而總覺膚淺，是字面之意。C項明顯與文章不符，而D項表達的意義比small要深刻得多。)
例(2)From the passage it can be seen that employee ship helps one .
be more successful in his career
B. to solve technical problems
C. to be more specialized in his field

英語六級閱讀理解的練習題Questions 56 to 60 are based on the followingpassage.
There is a certain inevitability that ebook saleshave now overtaken paperback sales on Amazon'sUS site. Amazon's Kindle 2 is so light and so cheapthat it's easy to see why people have rushed to buyit. Though I'm still not keen on the design of the Kindle, it is a vast improvement on itspredecessor and certainly tolerable. Beyond the device itself, Amazon has done a great jobof rolling out Kindle apps, ensuring that people like me-who have an iPad but not a Kindle-canstill join in the fun. Once you're into the Kindle ecosystem, Amazon locks you in tightly-just asApple does with its iTunes/ iPod ecosystem. It's so easy to buy from Amazon's store and thebooks are so cheap that it's not worth the effort of going elsewhere.
While I remain opposed to Amazon's DRM (數字版權管理)-indeed, I'm opposed to DRM onany ebooks-I have to admit that the implementation is so smooth that most Kindle userswon't care at all that their ebooks can't be moved to other devices.
The ebook trend is nowhere near peaking. Over the next five years we can expect to seemore and more readers move away from printed books and pick up ebooks instead. But I don'tthink that will mean the death of the printed book.
There are some who prefer printed books. They like having shelves filled with books they'veread and books they plan to read; they like the feel of the book in their hands and the differentweights and typefaces and layouts of different titles. In other words, they like the physical formof the book almost as much as the words it contains.
I can sympathise with those people. As I wrote earlier this week, my ideal situation would befor publishers to bundle ebooks with printed ones-in much the same way that film studiosbtmdie DVDs with digital copies of films. There's no reason to think that lovers of printed bookswill change their minds. There will undoubtedly be fewer of them as time goes by because morepeople will grow up with ebooks and spend little time with printed ones. However, just as thereare people who love vinyl records(黑膠唱片), even if they were born well into the CD era, therewill still be a dedicated minority who love physical books.
Since there are fewer of these people, that will mean fewer bookshops and higher prices forprinted books but I don't think the picture is entirely bleak. There is scope for smaller printruns of lavishly designed printed books and bookshops aimed at book lovers, rather than theStieg Larsson-reading masses. With mainstream readers out of the printed book market, booklovers might even find they get a better experience.
56. What can be inferred from Paragraph One?
people buy Kindle 2 mainly because of its low price.
author of the passage is a loyal customer of Apple products.
on's Kindle 2 surpassed Kindle 1 in designing.
sales of ebook outnumbered those of paperback in the U. S.
57. According to the passage, the reason why the author opposes to Amazon's DRM is that______
ks can only be purchased on Amazon. com
le books are not compatible with other electronic reading devices
implemented, ebooks can't be transferred to other equipments
ks installed on Kindle 2 can't be edited freely
58. It can be learned that the trend of ebooks______
come to stop any time soon
reach the summit in the near future
meet its heyday when printed books die
already reached its peak
59. Why does the author believe that the surging sales of ebooks won't mean the death ofthe printed book?
use a minority will stick to their love of printed books.
use the majority of book lovers won't change their minds.
use people always hold nostalgic feelings towards printed books.
use people will return to the printed books as time goes by.
60. According to the author, which of the following is TRUE about the future of printedbooks?
will be bundled with ebooks.
will no longer be available in the market.
will be sold in small quantity and high quality.
will be redesigned to cater to the masses.
