四级真题体验之深度阅读

我遇到的孩子，真是特别自律（或者说，自卷）。前两天，一个准大一的学生问我：“老师，我该怎么准备大学英语四六级考试？”

我当时就愣住——太震惊了！这可是高中最后一个暑假啊，不是应该去海边吹风、去电影院刷几场电影、或者好好睡到自然醒吗？结果人家不光没“放飞自我”，反而主动开启了新一轮备考模式。

更有意思的是，这位学生的家长也跟着问我：“老师，四六级有没有什么解题技巧啊？”我心里想，家长都这么卷，那孩子也就不奇怪了。

我的观点很简单：技巧可以了解，但千万别把它当成灵丹妙药。 有些培训机构把技巧包装得神乎其神，好像学了它就能一步登天。但现实是，如果你听不懂、读不明白，那这些技巧最后只能沦为——废话。

我有个同学，曾经在大学里花钱参加过某机构的英语强化班，课程结束后他的总结非常朴实：“读不懂、听不懂的话，技巧一点用都没有。” 哈哈，我完全赞同！语言学习的根本，是打好基础。当你的语言基础扎实了，词汇量、语法感、语音语调这些底子上来后，综合运用能力才会自然提升。

那么，怎么知道自己的语言水平到底如何呢？这个问题其实很难一句话回答。既然你的目标是大学英语四六级，不妨用真题来给自己做一个“体检”。真题不仅能检验你的真实水平，还能让你感受考试的题型、难度和节奏。

Having a rival can keep you committed to achieving your goals and enhance your overall performance. But before you go out and find an entrepreneur to outcompete, it’s important to understand and avoid the traps that often come with rivalry. After all, competitive rivalry can also hinder effective decision-making and increase your willingness to take risks, behaviors that can ultimately hurt your venture’s success.

Finding someone you’re committed to outcompeting can be a great way to stay focused on your goals and push your venture to the next level. But when you’re intently focused on outperforming your rivals, you may begin to develop a “win-at-all-costs” mentality that causes you to ignore how you achieve success. One group of researchers, for example, examined the link between rivalry and unethical behavior. They found that when people compete against their rivals, they are more willing to behave unethically to win. But such behavior may stain your reputation and strain relationships important to your success. One way to avoid this trap is to stop and reflect on what’s important. While outperforming your rivals may provide short-term benefits, the loss of your integrity will have long-term consequences.

One reason having a rival can enhance your venture’s performance is that it creates a level of excitement that drives you to work harder. But this eagerness to win may also hurt your venture’s success, particularly when it causes you to make impulsive, insensible decisions. But it’s possible to avoid such costly mistakes by making a habit of engaging in critical thinking, such as considering opposing viewpoints and conducting cost-benefit analyses, especially for those decisions that are complex and can determine the future of your venture.

The sense of eagerness that comes with having a rival can not only cause you to make poorer decisions, but it can also lead you to take greater risks that put your venture in peril. One way you can overcome the risk-inducing effects of rivalry that stand to endanger your venture’s success is to remain attentive to your emotional state and actively monitor how such feelings are affecting your decision-making.
