2022年考研英语二|外刊英语阅读-民间公园跑活动热度胜过奥运会Pt.4

考研人数逐年增加，竞争之激烈使得我们不得不加急复习的日程。众所周知，阅读理解占据了考研英语二100分试卷的一半分值，而考研英语阅读文章大多来自英美国家的主流报刊杂志，所以如果能在日常就多多阅读这些文章，对以后读懂文章做对题目来说会大有裨益。

学习步骤如下：

1.不看汉语译文自己看一遍短文做理解

2.看汉语译文比对自己理解的意思与之出入

3.强化记忆重点单词（以记忆其汉语意思为主）

Indeed, there is something a little absurd in the state getting involved in the planning of such a fundamentally “grassroots”, concept as community sports associations. If there is a role for government, it should really be getting involved in providing common goods – making sure there is space for playing fields and the money to pave tennis and netball courts, and encouraging the provision of all these activities in schools. But successive governments have presided over selling green spaces, squeezing money from local authorities and declining attention on sport in education. Instead of wordy, worthy strategies, future governments need to do more to provide the conditions for sport to thrive. Or at least not make them worse.

短文翻译

确实，如果国家像社区体育协会一样，参与规划这种从根本上讲“草根”概念的运动是有点可笑。如果政府可以扮演角色，他应该致力于提供公共设施：确保有地方修建运动场，有资金铺设网球场和无挡板篮球场，并鼓励学校提供此类体育运动项目。但是历届政府只管卖绿地，挤压地方政府的资金，不关注体育教育，崇高的战略是没有用的，未来的政府应该多做实事，提供让体育事业繁荣发展的条件。至少也应做到不要让他继续恶化下去。

题目解析

24.【解析】由题干中的关键词the governments should...,可以知道，命题人想要考察的是对于Parkrun这一项大众运动，政府应该做点什么。所以，要快速的定位到原文中有关政府的段落，即第四段，If there is a role for government, it should really be getting involved in providing common goods—making sure there is space for playing fields and the money to pave tennis and netball courts, and encouraging the provision of all these activities in schools. 从这里可以知道，作者希望政府能够为Parkrun提供场所和钱，并针对学校制定相关条例以鼓励全民运动。由此可以排除A，B，D. 最终选择C.invest in public sports facilities。

25.【解析】由题干中的关键词the author’s attitude to what UK government have done for sport可以再次锁定原文中关于政府的部分，可见这一题与24题是有一定联系的。第四段一开始作者提出了自己对政府的期许，但是事实上，政府却没有达到这一期许。But successive government have presided over selling green spaces, squeezing money from local authorities and declining attention on sport in education. 政府负责卖地，从地方政府压榨金钱，不重视学校的体育运动。可见，此处作者指责政府的一系列行为，由此可以得出答案A.critical。
