2018考研真题：英语二真题新题型不出意料标题匹配

　　项硕——英语教研室

　　2017年12月23日下午五点2018考研英语二结束，项老师也终于看到了流传出来的题目。总体而言，今年英语二难度虽然比去年稍微提升一点，但并不算特别大，所以英语二的学生都普遍反映难度并未超出预期，项老师也替大家松了一口气。

　　考研英语中的新题型即阅读理解的Part B部分，自从2010年开始考查新题型，截至2018年，新题型已经考查9年了，其中有二种备选题型：多项对应和标题匹配。而这二种备选题型中考查频率最高的是多项对应，已经考过4年了：2011年、2012年、2014年、2017年;考查频率较低的是小标题，只考过3年：2013年、2015年和2016年。2018考研英语二考了标题匹配，和考前的预测一致。近几年考查的新题型中今年的不算简单。考标题匹配这就无疑比多项对应提高了难度，但是文章选择非常常规，标题是与人展开对话的五条建议。

　　今年英语二新题型题目是：

　　Five ways to make conversation with anyone

　　Conversations are links,which means when you have a conversation with a new person a link gets formed and every conversation you have after that moment will strengthen the link.

　　You meet new people every day:the grocery worker,the cab driver,new people at work or the security guard at the door.Simply starting a conversation with them will form a link.

　　Here are five simple ways that you can make the fit move and start a conversation with strangers.

　　41._________________________________

　　Suppose you are in a room with someone you don’t know and something within you says “I want to talk with this person”-this is something that mostly happens with all of us.You wanted to say something-the first word-but it just won’t come out,it feels like it is stuck somewhere.l know the feeling and here is my advice:just get it out.

　　Just think:what is the worst that could happen?They won’t talk with you?Well,they are not talking withing with you now!

　　I truly believe that once you get that first word out everything will just flow.

　　I truly believe that once you get that first word out everything else will just flow.So keep it simple"hi","hey"or"hello"-do the best you can to gather all of the enthusiasm and energy you can,put on a big smile and sey"hi".

　　42. _________________________________

　　It’s a problem all of us face; you have limited time with the person that you want to talk with and you want to make this talk memorable.

　　Honestly,if we got stuck in the rut of “h”,”hello”,” how are your”and “what’s going on?”,you will fail to give the initial jolt to the conversation that can make it so memorable.

　　So don’t be afraid to ask more personal questions.Twst me,you’ll be surprised to see how much people are willing to share if you just ask.

　　43. ________________________________

　　When you meet a person for the first time,make an effort to find the things which you and that person have in common so that you can build the conversation from that point.When you start conversation from there and then move outwards,you’ll find all of a sudden that the conversation becomes a lot easier.

　　44. _____________________________

　　Imagine you are pouring your heart out to someone and they are just busy on their phone,and if you ask for their attention you get the response “I can multitask”.

　　So when someone tries to communicate with you,just be in that communication wholeheartedly.Make eye contact.Trust me,eye contact is where all the magic happens.When you make eye contact,you can feel the conversation.

　　45. _____________________

　　You all came into a conversation where you first met the person,but after some time you may have met again and have forgotten their name.Isn’t that awkward! So,remember the little details of the people you met or you talked with; perhaps the places they have been to.the places they want to go,the things they like.the things they hate-whatever you talk about.

　　Vhen you remember such things you can automatically become investor in their well being.So they feel a responsibility to you to keep that relationship going.

　　That’s it.Five amazing ways that you can make conversation with almost anyone.Every person is a really good book to read ,or to have a conversation with!

　　几个选项如下：

　　A. Be present

　　B. Just say it

　　C. Ask for an opinion

　　D. Find the"me too"s

　　E. Name,places,things

　　F. skip the small talk

　　G. Pay a unique compliment

　　41.选B。该小标题需要涵盖三段内容。第一段开始说到你想跟陌生人说话，但是“it just won’t come out”，提到说话说不出来，随后直接出现我的建议“My advice：just get it out“，即去说。所以选B：Just say it去说

　　42，选F。该小标题下第一段第一句话就说了你时间有限“you have limited time”，然后说到如果陷到寒暄当中“hi，hello，how are you， what is going on”会让对话没法令人印象深刻。下一段“So”表明结论，去问更多个人问题“personal questions”，所以选F：Skip the small talk跳过寒暄

　　43.选D。第一句话就说到了第一次交谈要找到共同点“have in common”，从这个共同点“that point”来开展对话“build the conversation”，所以选D：find the “me too”s找到共同点

　　44.选G。第一段先举例，说你跟人讲心事时，别人分心干别的。然后下一段“So”表明结论，人家跟跟你沟通，你要全心投入“wholeheartedly”。所以选G：Pay a unique complement专注

　　45，选E。第一句话就提到了忘记只见过一面的人的名字“name”。“So”后面又提到回忆地点“places”和好恶的事情“things”等细节，所以选E：Name，places，things

　　新题型已经考过9年，其实已经不再新了，但备考的题型是不断变换的，多项对应和标题匹配这二种备考题型中我们必须同时着力，目前来看，考察还是比较均衡的，加上2018年考的标题匹配，两种题型考察次数已经完全一致，因此，2019级准备考研的考生也应该两种题型同时关注，千万不可有赌徒心态，以为2018年考过小标题，2019年就会一定考多项对应。连续两年考同一种题型的想象在新题型中非常常见。
