2022年MBA考研|英语阅读计划-每日阅读-Day2

整理编辑：MBA培训网时间：2021-01-11

计划说明

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。但是对大多数备考的同学来说，刚开始投入复习，就去读考试文章难度的新闻报刊，也是不现实、并且不符合循序渐进的学习规律的，所以我们会在每次推送中，给大家给出两篇短文，一篇是初阶水平（大致在初高中水平）；一篇是高阶水平（四六级到考研水平）；同学们可以根据自己当前的情况，选择其中一篇进行学习。

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）

初阶文段

The plane was late and detectives were waiting at the airport all morning. They were expecting a valuable parcel of diamonds from South Africa. A few hours earlier, someone had told the police that thieves would try to steal the diamonds. When the plane arrived, some of the detectives were waiting inside the main building while others were waiting on the airfield. Two men took the parcel off the plane and carried it into the Customs House. While two detectives were keeping guard at the door, two others opened the parcel. To their surprise, the precious parcel was full of stones and sand!

短文翻译

飞机晚点了，警探们在机场等了一上午。他们在等一包来自南非的贵重钻石。几个小时前，有人告诉警察，小偷会试图偷走钻石。飞机到达时，一些警探在主楼内等候，而另一些则在机场等候。两个人把包裹从飞机上拿下来，带进海关。两个警探把守在门口，另外两个警探打开了包裹。令他们惊讶的是，这个贵重的包裹里装满了石头和沙子！
