大家好，我是新东方大学听说读写拔高教师姚瑶。
如果你现在正看到这行字并且不是误点了链接的话，相信你是一位需要通过全国英语四、六级考试的同学，恭喜你打开了这个链接。我将马上帮你分析一下怎样才能快速地在全国英语四、六级考试的仔细阅读部分抓取文章内容分布。
"快速"到底是多快？这取决于我们拥有的时间和文章的难度。如下是仔细阅读部分的题目：
Part IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)
大家可以看到在这一部分我们只有25分钟的时间去完成三篇文章，也就是说在留出1分钟时间填涂这一部分的答题卡之后，我们最多只有8分钟的时间去完成一篇文章，包括阅读和解题。
第一个问题：你能做完吗？
以2010年六月大学英语四级考试仔细阅读真题为例：
Part IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)
Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage Two （326 words）
Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.
The $11 billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like "I never do anything right" into positive ones like "I can succeed." But was positive thinking advocate Norman Vincent Peale right? Is there power in positive thinking?
Researchers in Canada just published a study in the journal Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have the opposite effect: it can simply highlight how unhappy they are.
The study's authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaine Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by citing older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your dim friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, you're just underlining his faults. In one 1990s experiment, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton asked participants to write essays opposing funding for the disabled. When the essayists were later praised for their sympathy, they felt even worse about what they had written.
In this experiment, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students' self-esteem. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes. Every 15 seconds, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, "I am lovable."
Those with low self-esteem didn't feel better after the forced self-affirmation. In fact, their moods turned significantly darker than those of members of the control group, who weren't urged to think positive thoughts.
The paper provides support for newer forms of psychotherapy (心理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Meditation (静思) techniques, in contrast, can teach people to put their shortcomings into a larger, more realistic perspective. Call it the power of negative thinking.
