    Chinatown is the name given to an area in the middle of London. It is just between Leicester Square
    and Shaftsbury Avenue. Gerrard Street is at the center and is the most important street in the area. There
    is a large Chinese community (社区) with a lot of Chinese restaurants, Chinese supermarkets and shops in
    this street.
    In the 1950s, it was a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time, the world rice
    market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London
    to look for work. They found jobs in the restaurants in this area. Many British people liked Chinese food, and
    the restaurants were popular.
    These restaurant workers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English. As more
    Chinese arrived, more shops and businesses grew up. Wives came and joined their husbands and children
    came and joined their fathers. The community grew, and Chinatown was born.
    In the 1970s and 1980s, British-born Chinese started to have a better education and this brought
    economic (经济的) success to the area. Many families moved out of Chinatown, and there was more space
    for businesses. Gerrand Street became a street only for visitors and was soon a popular place for tourists.
    Now everyone knows about London's Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year, the streets are seen
    with flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets. For most of the year, though, Londoners and tourists
    go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants. The best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese
    eat.

政治经济类阅读

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 政治经济类阅读
政治经济类阅读:
该类文章时代气息浓郁,语言鲜活,但熟字新义词、超纲词及专业词语多,长句、难句多。
政治类文章大多数是同学们感性趣的内容,读起来倒有似曾相识的感觉,经济类文章读起来就像是雾里看花,文章看完,一头雾水。
再加之这类文章的命题侧重于词义猜测、推理判断和文章主旨,同学们对这类题材是望而生畏。

政治经济类阅读注意:
1、要做好这类阅读,平时就要注意了解国内外发生的政治经济大事,掌握一定背景知识;
2、对这类文章的叙述特点及内容安排有一定了解,还要扩展这方面的词汇;
3、阅读这类文章,要抓住文章的核心,即文章整体和各段主要在说什么,也要注意段落之间的逻辑关系。

政治经济类阅读技巧:
针对不同体裁的文章,我们要采取相应的阅读方法和技巧。政治类文章多采用记叙文形式,我们可采取“顺读法”,以便抓关键语句,领会文章主旨;而经济类文章则多采用说明文形式,我们则可以采取“逆读法”,先读试题,再从文章中查找有用信息。若遇到的确难读的材料。
1. 寻找主干:
根据英语中五种基本句型结构,把句子中的主语、谓语、宾语、表语等主要成分找出来,其他成分如定语、状语、补语等则易于理解。找到了句子主干,句子的意思至少明白了一半。
2. 剔除从句:
在一个长句中可能会出现若干个从句,在理解时,如果把各个从句剔除出来单独理解,然后把大意拼凑起来,整个长句的意思就会明白六、七分。
3. 辨别分句:
一个长句如果是由几个并列、转折、递进、对比关系的分句组成,句中往往有表示这些分句关系的连接词,只要能弄清楚分句和分句之间的逻辑关系,再把各层分句的意思加以连贯,整个长句的句意基本上能跃然脑中。
4. 寻找关键词:
如果一个句子看完,一点句意的感觉也没有,下下策就是抓住句中的关键词,通过关键词大体弄懂这个长句的意思。
