1、托福阅读备考:托福阅读速度如何提升托福阅读备考:托福阅读速度如何提升? 影响托福阅读速度的因素有许多,比如阅读文章不理解,许多词汇不相识,文章内容太枯燥,长难句太多想要提升托福阅读速度就要从根本上解决这些问题。托福阅读考试时间特别惊慌,平均每道题的做题时间仅有不到2分钟。所以快速阅读实力在托福考试中特别重要,希望大家能重视起来。 一. 阅读文章读不懂,如何提升阅读速度 托福阅读文章还是有肯定难度的,许多同学初次接触托福都觉得托福文章读不懂或者须要花费很久才能弄懂意思。那么读不懂文章如何提升阅读速度呢?从根本上讲,阅读读不懂是因为词汇量和语法基础太差。所以建议先背托福词汇,看一遍基础语法学问。词
2、汇是阅读的根基,没有词汇量做基础,阅读速度是不行能有很大提升的。托福阅读要求大家有很快的阅读速度,假如一篇阅读中生词太多,就算快速读完也不知道文章的意思。除了背单词之外,还要驾驭基本的语法学问,英语句子结构与中文很不相同,驾驭语法学问有助于大家理解文章中的长难句。所以总的来说,文章读不懂要先将基本功练扎实。 二. 题目做太慢,如何提升做题速度 有的同学表示,阅读文章能读懂,但就是题目做的太慢,所以做阅读总是超时。题目做的慢,其实是因为缺乏做题技巧,不能快速在原文中定位题目位置。阅读打好基础以后,要学习一些做题的技巧,比如小结题应当通读文章段落找答案,推理题要依据文章意思推理得出,词汇题要将选项
3、带入原句看是否通顺做题技巧是提升阅读做题速度的高效方法。托福阅读题目是按依次出题,基本上根据文章的文章结构对应题目,大家在做题的时候要快速定位题目位置,结合上下文快速选出答案。托福阅读题目中许多选项似是而非特别具有迷惑性,肯定要提高辨别实力,选择最佳选项。 三. 课外练习很重要 托福阅读速度考验大家的英语基本功,提升阅读速度也须要大家在利用空暇时间多练习。多刷题是有帮助的,除了刷题之外,大家还要多去阅读英文报刊杂志。许多同学看到一篇冗长的托福阅读时,心里的压力感倍增,感觉好像“不行能完成”。大家平常在课余时间多读英文报刊杂志,就会习惯英语的长篇文章,能削减心理上的压力感,也能提升自己的阅读速度

Analysis suggests donations, smuggled oil (up to $1.645m a day), kidnapping (at least $20m last year), people trafficking, extortion, robbery and last but not least the sale of antiquities.
6、Its a lucrative source of income for example, the sale of looted items from al-Nabuk, west of Damascus, is reported to have earned IS $36m. IS operates in the richest archaeological arena in the world, the cradle of civilisation. While ancient sites at Nimrud, Nineveh and Hatra are being destroyed,
7、a stream of artefacts suspected to come from such places has appeared on the black market. IS either uses so-called bulldozer archaeology (unearthing sites using any equipment available which is extraordinarily destructive), or employs locals to dig up sites and tombs.

But large-scale looting has been taking place in Mosul for at least 25 years, with Western demand very high, he adds. The smal

While antiques are usually less transportable than blood diamonds, they are potentially far more valuable. There are numerous repor

Reportedly, Scotland Yard has four investigations in progress related to Syrian antiques but without much greater financial help, closing down the networks that move the loot around the world seems an impossible task. The l
13、ooters tap into well-established old networks using smuggling routes that often go through Turkey and Lebanon, says Dr Altaweel. Among items in demand are ancient cuneiform tablets, cylinder seals, jars, coins, glass and particularly mosaics, which can be easily broken up and transported. The smalle

Christopher Marinello, a spokesman for London-based Art Recovery Group, which advises buyers on due diligence, says there has been intense speculation about the value of looted art. There are a lot of figures floating

A large object that is not legitimate may be worth only 10-15% of its true value in the black market but smaller, more easily transported pieces can be worth a much greater
16、 percentage.” Smaller, more easily transported pieces can fetch much more on the black market than large artefacts (Credit: Getty) IS is not the first terrorist organisation to use blood antiques for funding. In 1974, the IRA stole old master paintings, including Vermeer's Lady Writing a Letter
