Hello. My name is Emma, and in today's video, we are going to talk about the reading module of the IELTS.
大家好！我叫Emma，在今天的视频中，我们要讨论的是雅思的阅读部分。
I'm going to tell you some of my top IELTS reading tips. So let's get started.
我会告诉你们一些我的雅思阅读秘诀。那么，我们就开始吧。
During the reading module of the IELTS, there will be three passages that you read, and for each passage, there are a bunch of questions you have to answer.
在雅思考试的阅读部分，一共有三篇文章，每一篇文章后面都有一堆要你回答的问题。
The first tip I have for you is: don't spend too much time reading the passages.
我要说的第一个诀窍就是：不要花太多时间阅读文章。
What happens to a lot of students is they read word-for-word everything.
很多学生在做阅读理解的时候，总是逐字逐字地把所有内容都读一遍。
They see a word they don't know, they keep trying to understand the meaning.
当他们看见不认识的单词时，会一直想办法弄懂这个单词的意思。
You don't have to understand everything to understand the passage. If you don't know a word, that's fine.
其实，你们并不需要读懂所有内容才能弄懂文章大意。如果有不认识的单词，也没有关系。
The better thing to do than to slowly read, is to use skills such as skimming, which means you quickly read for the main idea, or scanning, meaning you look for key words or you look for specific detail.
比慢慢阅读文章更好的就是使用一些阅读技巧，比如略读，也就是快速阅读以弄懂文章主要思想；或者浏览，意思就是在阅读的时候寻找关键词或者要点。
A lot of students, what they do for the IELTS is they actually will read the questions first, and then they will read the passage. And that way, they... they know what they're looking for.
很多学生在参加雅思考试的时候采用的办法是，先看文章后面的问题，然后再阅读文章。这样他们就知道自己要找什么了。
You don't have to do this, it's one technique. Some students find this a lot easier, other students like to read the passage first and then answer the questions.
你们不一定非得这么做，这只是一种技巧。有些学生觉得这样会简单一些，但也有其他学生喜欢先读文章再回答问题。
I recommend trying both out. First do the reading, then the questions, then try to read the questions first and read the passage and see what you like better, what you're more comfortable doing.
我的建议是你们可以两种方法都试一试。第一次先读文章再回答问题，第二次试着先看问题再读文章。然后看看你更喜欢哪一种，哪一种方法让你觉得更舒服。
So the key thing here is: don't read slowly.
总之最关键的就是：不要慢慢地阅读。
It's a timed test, you have three parts, you have to get through 40 questions; it's very important that you read quickly.
考试是有时间限制的，而且整个阅读部分有三篇文章，还有40个问题要回答，所以快速阅读非常重要。
You can start practicing reading quickly also. There are a number of resources out there where you can actually start practicing.
你们练习的时候也可以试着快速阅读了。可供练习的资源也有很多。
And time yourself when you practice, make sure you're not going over time.
练习的时候要记得给自己计时，确保不要超时。
