1、托福阅读做一篇阅读需要多长时间呢托福阅读做一篇阅读需要多长时间呢 托福阅读时间把握 做一篇阅读需要多长时间? 一.托福阅读时间把握 一般情况下如果不遇到加试的情况下,你有60分钟来应对3篇700字左右的文章及42道左右的题目.那么如果你按照20分钟一篇文章来解题的话,那么时间刚刚好是60分钟.但是大家需要知道的是托福阅读3篇文章的难易度是不一样的,如果前面的文章偏难一些的话,那么你多些时间后面文章简单一些问题还不大,但如果前面的文章题目较简单你同样是用20分钟,在后面遇到较难的文章和题目的时候就会时间不够用了. 所以这里小站君建议大家在托福阅读考试的时候第一篇阅读做题时最好不要超过20分钟.那

2、么你的时间真的就不够用了,到最后时间快到的时候你后面的题目还没有来得及看只能靠猜了,想想这样的正确率将会大打折扣. 二.做题方法是先通读全文后看题目 很多考生都会有这样一个习惯,就是先将托福阅读文章通读一遍,然后再去看题目.这样做并不明智,如果你的阅读水平并不是极高的话,建议大家不要这样做,因为如果你的的阅读水平不够的话,或者词汇量积累不够,很有可能你的阅读文章将耗尽你大部分时间,从而没有时间去看题找答案了. 但是这种方法也不是完全不可取了,如果这篇文章是你曾经读过的,就算你一字一句读也不会浪费太多时间;还有一种就是前面提到的,你的阅读水平极高,可以应付这种阅读文章,否则用这种方法阅读肯定是做

3、不完的. 托福阅读真题原题+题目 During most of their lives, surge glaciers behave like normal glaciers, traveling perhaps only a couple of inches per day. However, at intervals of 10 to 100 years, these glaciers move forward up to 100 times faster than usual. The surge often progresses along a glacier like a great

4、 wave, proceeding from one section to another. Subglacial streams of meltwater might act as a lubricant, allowing the glacier to flow rapidly toward the sea. The increasing water pressure under the glacier might lift it off its bed, overcoming the friction between ice and rock, thus freeing the glac

5、ier, which rapidly sliders downhill. Surge glaciers also might be influenced by the climate, volcanic heat, or earthquakes. However, many of these glaciers e_ist in the same area as normal glaciers, often almost side by side. Some 800 years ago, Alaska s Hubbard Glacier advanced toward the sea, retr

6、eated, and advanced again 500 years later. Since _95, this seventy-mile-long river of ice has been flowing steadily toward the Gulf of Alaska at a rate of appro_imately 200 feet per year. In June _86, however, the glacier surged ahead as much as 47 feet a day. Meanwhile, a western tributary, called

7、Valerie Glacier, advanced up to _2 feet a day. Hubbard s surge closed off Russell Fiord with a formidable ice dam, some 2,500 feet wide and up to 800 feet high, whose caged waters threatened the town of Yakutat to the south. About 20 similar glaciers around the Gulf of Alaska are heading toward the

8、sea. If enough surge glaciers reach the ocean and raise sea levels, west Antarctic ice shelves could rise off the seafloor and become adrift. A flood of ice would then surge into the Southern Sea. With the continued rise in sea level, more ice would plunge into the ocean, causing sea levels to rise

9、even higher, which in turn would release more ice and set in motion a vicious cycle. The additional sea ice floating toward the tropics would increase Earth s albedo and lower global temperatures, perhaps enough to initiate a new ice age. This situation appears to have occurred at the end of the las
