你好：考试难不难，是一个相对的概念，会者不难，不会不难，因人而异。去年我们考研初试结束后，都喊难，学校考研的一片惆怅，结果等2月6日初试成绩出来时，一个比一个考的好，倒是有一个现象值得注意，当时感觉考的好同学，反而成绩到低了，到愁了。考研结束后，无论感觉考的如何，都不要过于太刻意，淡定等到初试成绩的出来。凡是准备二战的，无论成绩是否出来，都要义无反顾的坚持去复习，尤其应届毕业考研感觉失利的同学，还想二战的同学更要如此。

我这里有14年英语一两篇阅读真题，你看看吧，或许对你有帮助Text 1 In order to “change lives for the better” and reduce “dependency”, George Osborne, Chancellor of the Exchequer, introduced the "upfront work search" scheme. Only if the jobless arrive at the job centre with a CV, register for the online job search, and start looking for work will they be eligible for benefit—and then they should report weekly rather than fortnightly. What could be more reasonable?More apparent reasonableness followed. There will now be a seven-day wait for the jobseeker’s allowance. “Those first few days should be spent looking for work, not looking to sign on.” he claimed, “We’re doing these things because we know they help people stay off benefits and help those on benefits get into work faster.” Help? Really? On first hearing, this was the socially concerned chancellor, trying to change lives for the better, complete with “reforms” to an obviously indulgent system that demands too little effort from the newly unemployed to find work, and subsidises laziness. What motivated him, we were to understand was his zeal for “fundamental fairness”—protecting the taxpayer, controlling spending and ensuring that only the most deserving claimants received their benefits.Losing a job is hurting: you don’t skip down to the job centre with a song in your heart, delighted at the prospect of doubling your income from the generous state. It is financially terrifying, psychologically embarrassing and you know that support is minimal and extraordinarily hard to get. You are now not wanted; you are now excluded from the work environment that offers purpose and structure in your life. Worse, the crucial income to feed yourself and your family and pay the bills has disappeared. Ask anyone newly unemployed what they want and the answer is always: a job.But in Osborneland, your first instinct is to fall into dependency—permanent dependency if you can get it—supported by a state only too ready to indulge your falsehood. It is as though 20 years of ever –tougher reforms of the job search and benefit administration system never happened. The principle of British welfare is no longer that you can insure yourself against the risk of unemployment and receive unconditional payments if the disaster happens. Even the very phrase “jobseeker’s allowance” is about redefining the unemployed as a “jobseeker” who had no fundamental right to benefit he or she has earned through making national insurance contributions. Instead, the claimant receives a time-limited “allowance”, conditional on actively seeking a job: no entitlement and no insurance, at £71.70 a week ,one of the least generous in the EU. 21. George Osborne’s scheme was intended to [A] provide the unemployed with easier access to benefits.[B] encourage jobseeker’ s active engagement in job seeking. [C] motivate the unemployed to report voluntarily. [D] guarantee jobseekers’ legitimate right to benefit. 22. The phase “to sign on”(Line 3,Para.2)most probably means [A] to check on the availability of jobs at the job centre. [B] to accept the government’s restrictions on the government. [C] to register for an allowance from the government. [D] to attend a governmental job-training program. 23. What prompted the chancellor to develop his scheme? [A] A desire to secure a better life for all. [B] An eagerness to protect the unemployed. [C] An urge to be generous to the claimants. [D] A passion to ensure fairness for taxpayers. 24. According to Paragraph 3, being unemployed makes one feel [A] uneasy. [B] enraged. [C] insulted. [D] guilty. 25. To which of the following would the author most probably agree? [A] The British welfare system indulges jobseekers’ laziness. [B] Osborne’s reform will reduce the risk of unemployment. [C] The jobseekers’ allowance has met their actual needs. [D] Unemployment benefits should not be made conditional.Text 2All around the world, lawyers generate more hostility than the members of any other profession—with the possible exception of journalism. But there are few places where clients have more grounds for complaint than America.During the decade before the economic crisis, spending on legal services in America grew twice as fast as inflation. The best lawyers made skyscrapers-full of money, tempting ever more students to pile into law schools. But most law graduates never get a big-firm job. Many of them instead become the kind of nuisance-lawsuit filer that makes the tort system a costly nightmare.There are many reasons for this. One is the excessive costs of a legal education. There is just one path for a lawyer in most American states; a four-year undergraduate degree in some unrelated subject, then a three-year law degree at one of 200 law schools authorized by the American Bar Association and an expensive preparation for the bar exam. This leaves today’s average law-school graduate with $100,000 of debt on top of undergraduate debts. Law-school debt means that they have to work fearsomely hard.Reforming the system would help both lawyers and their customers. Sensible ideas have been around for a long time, but the state-level bodies that govern the profession have been too conservative to implement them. One idea is to allow people to study law as an undergraduate degree. Another is to let students sit for the bar after only two years of law school. If the bar exam is truly a stern enough test for a would-be lawyer, those who can sit it earlier should be allowed to do so. Students who do need the extra training could cut their debt mountain by a third.The other reason why costs are so high is the restrictive guild-like ownership structure of the business. Except in the District of Columbia, non-lawyers may not own any share of a law firm. This keeps fees high and innovation slow. There is pressure for change from within the profession, but opponents of change among the regulators insist that keeping outsiders out of a law firm isolates lawyers from the pressure to make money rather than serve clients ethically.In fact, allowing non-lawyers to own shares in law firms would reduce costs and improve services to customers, by encouraging law firms to use technology and to employ professional managers to focus on improving firms’ efficiency. After all, other countries, such as Australia and Britain, have started liberalizing their legal professions. America should follow. 26. A lot of students take up law as their profession due to[A] the growing demand from clients[B] the increasing pressure of inflation[C] the prospect of working in big firms[D] the attraction of financial rewards27. Which of the following adds to the costs of legal education in most American states?[A] Higher tuition fees for undergraduate studies [B] Receiving training by professional associations[C] Admissions approval from the bar association[D] Pursuing a bachelors degree in another major28. Hindrance to the reform of the legal system originates from[A] the rigid bodies governing the profession[B] lawyers’ and clients’ strong resistance[C] the stern exam for would-be lawyers.[D] non-professionals’ sharp criticism29. The guild-like ownership structure is considered “restrictive” partly because[A] prevents lawyers from gaining due profits.[B] bans outsiders’ involvement in the profession.[C] aggravates the ethical situation in the trade.[D] keeps lawyers from holding law-firm shares.30. In the text, the author mainly discusses[A] the factors that help make a successful lawyer in America.[B] a problem in America’s legal profession and solutions to it.[C] the role undergraduate studies in America’s legal education.[D] flawed ownership of America’s law firms and its causes.

2014年的英语考试已经比去年较难，考研阅读特点之一是文章很难读懂，有些考生由于词汇量小，句子分析能力差，根本读不懂文章，所以也无法考到理想的分数。其次是选项迷惑性大，排除错误选项需要很多时间，而且不一定选对。作为考研英语试卷体系中发展最成熟、题型最稳定的部分，阅读主要考查的是考生理解文章结构、把握具体信息和解答不同类型题目的能力。

2014考研英语一不难。考研英语复习计划：1、重点是考研词汇、基本语法，同时，阅读理解训练也要开始。语法等不会有什么变化，词汇每年大纲虽然有所修订，但变动不大，因此找本前一年的《大纲》先看着。有许多同学正好在这一阶段考CET6级，由于6级和考研难度大致相当，词汇量也差不多，所以可以结合起来复习。2、词汇方面，应该在已经大体掌握意思的基础上，开始深入掌握用法，尤其是固定搭配和习惯用法。另一个重点是解决长难句，掌握各种句式。同时要加大阅读量，一方面提高阅读能力，另一方面也通过阅读来巩固语法、词汇和句式。本阶段必须进行相当量的题型专项练习，通过做题来巩固。3、冲刺复习阶段的重要任务也有两个，一是进行大量模考练习，二是强化训练短文写作。对短文写作的强化，首先要对可能的命题范围作出预测。考研英语作文命题不会冷僻，不会很专业，通常都与学习生活紧密联系，或反映当前社会热点问题。例如保持健康、如何读书、环境保护、乱承诺等都曾是出题范围。了解到这些大概范围后，有意识地多阅读一些相关文章，熟悉有关观点、句式、词汇，多动笔写写，在考场上就可成竹在胸。
