时间太窄，指缝太宽，转眼又一年的申请季即将来临。回顾过去，反思自己。是否上了不少课，但阅读分数从来没上过20分?是否做了不少题，但理解始终存在问题、分数波动得厉害?是否已经到了阅读学习的瓶颈疲惫期，看不到进步，坚持不下去?如果这些问题你都中招了，那么接下去请认真把这篇文章看完。

　　做阅读，光刷题，不精读、不分析错题，其实长远来看，是不会取得实质性的进步的。归根结底，你只是享受了刷题的快感、这是一种伪努力。看似辛苦的刷题，背后是一遍遍重复了原有的错误，包括错误的理解、错误的做题习惯、错误的思维习惯等。当然，也有同学其实是知道要精读和错题分析的，但可能尝试了一下，发现费时费力，且短时间内看不到成效，就很快放弃了。越到考前临近，越是觉得时间不该被“浪费”在这些事情上，很多同学宁愿考前几天连着着刷3套题，也不愿意模考1套题，然后认真精读精分析。这样的同学，你的考试心理素质也会存在问题哦!

　　做完题之后的精读以及对错题的分析很有必要。我们结合例子来了解下具体的要求。

　　精读建议如下(以TPO40-1 para. 3为例)：

　　The first steps toward change were taken by Solon in 594 B. C., when he broke the aristocracy's stranglehold(束缚) on elected offices// by establishing wealth rather than birth as the basis of office holding, abolishing(废除) the economic obligations(责任义务) of ordinary Athenians to the aristocracy, and allowing the assembly (of which all citizens were equal members) to overrule(推翻) the decisions of local courts(法庭) in certain cases. The strength of the Athenian aristocracy was further weakened during the rest of the century // by the rise of a type of government known as a tyranny, which is a form of interim(过渡的) rule by a popular strongman (not rule by a ruthless dictator(残暴的独裁者) as the modern use of the term(术语) suggests to us). The Peisistratids, as the succession(继承，继位) of tyrants were called (after the founder of the dynasty, Peisistratos), strengthened Athenian central administration at the expense of(以牺牲...为代价) the aristocracy // by appointing judges throughout the region, producing Athens’ first national coinage(货币), and adding and embellishing(装饰，修饰) festivals that tended to focus attention on Athens rather than on local villages of the surrounding region. By the end of the century, the time was ripe(成熟的) for more change: the tyrants were driven out, and in 508 B C a new reformer, Cleisthenes, gave final form to the developments reducing aristocratic(贵族的) control already under way.

　　本段大意：

　　1、Solon是雅典民主制改革的第 一人：打破贵族对贵族权利的控制+3个手段;

　　2、贵族权利被进一步削弱：通过tyranny政府;

　　3、Peisistratids加强雅典中央集权牺牲贵族利益+3个手段;

　　4、承上启下，暗示下段落新的改革者：Cleisthenes及其贡献。
