托福阅读题目是根据文章的意思出题，是问题就有解决的方法，阅读问题都是有的解决思路的，北京新航道小编举例说明了一些托福阅读解题思路，供大家参考学习。

　　在TPO13中“types of social groups”这篇文章中，我们可以看到有一段文字把学生搞得云里雾里。其实主要原因是托福阅读social science这个主题的文章里经常渗透着西方哲学的思想，下面就带你一起看看究竟。

　　“Sociologists have built on the distinction between expressive and instrumental ties to distinguish between two types of groups: primary and secondary. A primary group involves two or more people who enjoy a direct, intimate, cohesive relationship with one another. Expressive ties predominate in primary groups; we view the people as ends in themselves and valuable in their own right. A secondary group entails two or more people who are involved in an impersonal relationship and have come together for a specific, practical purpose. Instrumental ties predominate in secondary groups; we perceive people as means to ends rather than as ends in their own right. Sometimes primary group relationships evolve out of secondary group relationships.“

　　同学，看到上面的 “ we view the people as ends in themselves” 和 “we perceive people as means to ends”就彻底晕了。这个其实是可以理解的，这两句话实际是哲学家Kant(康德)关于道德的哲学思想。我们先来看看康德是怎么说的：

　　Humanity

　　According to Kant, there are different ways to state what our duty is. One of them involves the idea of a law. Another involves the idea of humanity, or human reason. Morality says that you should never treat rational human beings merely as means to your end. Whenever you use someone’s skills or services to your own end, you should always also treat that person as an end in him- or herself.

　　翻译：康德认为，有不同的方式来陈述我们的职责。其中一个是涉及法律。另外一个是涉及人性和人道。道德论认为,你永远不应该把一个理性的人只是作为你达到你的目的中间手段。当你用其他的服务和技能作为你达到你的目的是，你应该尊重他们作为个体而不是你的手段而已。

　　分析：这里的mean实际上是一个途径，一个中间过程。如果我们把他人视为达成某种目标的中间途径,那就不是道德的。end在这里是终点，自身的结果。只有把他人视为end才是尊重别人才是道德的。

　　在平时做完真题后，做错的题要认真分析出题的思路，为之后的托福阅读解题思路做好基础，多加段锻炼，增加自己思维逻辑性，北京新航道小编祝各位在考试中取得优异的成绩。
