ACT考试的阅读部分难度大，时间也很紧，35分钟内读4篇文章，做40道题目.....下面小编就给大家分享下备考ACT阅读的策略，希望对考试提高成绩有帮助。认定自己的方向，勇敢走下去，只要问心无愧，到结束的时候，就不会后悔。
　　ACT阅读的题型可以分为下面三大类：
　　1. 直接实施题：此类题目一般是就文中所提供的信息进行直接提问，需要考生找到正确的对应处，并作同义转换。
　　原文“The revisionistinterpretation, which I support, does not enshrine dinosaurs as paragons ofintellect, but it does maintain that they were not small brained after all.They had the “right-sized” brains for reptiles of their body size.”
　　题目：According to the passage, what is the revisionist interpretation concerning the relationship between intelligence and physical size?
　　A. Dinosaurs actuallyhad relatively large brains.
　　B. Dinosaurs wereparagons of intellect.
　　C. Dinosaurs wererelatively small brained.
　　D. Dinosaurs’ brainswere appropriately sized.
　　答案：D
　　分析：直接事实题根据文章内容，做直接的同义转换，此处将right-sized改写为appropriately sized，属于正确改写。而A选项将其改写为relatively large，不正确
　　注意：直接事实题常见错误选项的特点为故意丢失not，如B选项中的paragons of intellect与文章相同，但是丢失了not，因此具有一定迷惑性。同样，C选项中的small brained也与文章完全相同，但也故意丢失了not。
　　2.举例作用题
　　此类题目就文中的例子进行提问，需要回答此例子在文中所起的作用
　　原文：“Government is sotechnical that even career civil servants cannot explain
　　what is happening. In1978 I attended a seminar on federal estate and gift tax,where
　　the Internal Revenue Service lawyers responsible for this area frankly confessed that
　　they did not understand the Tax Reform Act of 1976.”
　　题目：The author uses the description of the tax seminar in 1978 to make thepoint that some governmental issues are:
　　A. so technical thatnot even career civil servants can understand them.
　　B. so technical thatonly career civil servants can understand them.
　　C. more technicalthan they used to be before the passage of the Tax Reform Act.
　　D. too technical foranyone other than an Internal Revenue Service tax lawyer to understand.
　　答案：A
　　分析：作者在文中描述一个例子的作用就是为了证明一个结论，所以，举例作用题的答案为例子之前或之后的结论句。一般，由for example开头的例子，结论句在之前。如果例子结束后出现therefore，则therefore之后为结论句。本题结论句在例子之前，即Government is so technical that even career civil servants cannotexplain what is happening. 通过同义改写，得到A选项。B选项错误原因依然是故意丢失not。
　　注意：举例作用题常见错误选项为选项中重现例证中原文，比如此题的C, D选项中出现的Tax Reform Act和Internal Revenue Service。
　　3.推论题
　　此类题目与直接事实题不同，不是就文中的信息进行直接的提问，而是考查作者所写的某处内容实际暗示了什么。
　　原文：“The remarkable thingabout dinosaurs is not that they became extinct, but that they dominated theearth for so long…”“People, on thiscriterion, are scarcely worth mentioning—5 million years perhaps sinceAustralopithecus, a mere 50, 000 for our own species, Homo sapiens…”。
　　题目：In the context of the passage, what does the author mean when he states that “people … are scarcely worth mentioning” (lines 81-82)?
　　A. Compared to thecomplex social behavior of dinosaurs, human behavior seems simple.
　　B. Compared to thelongevity of dinosaurs, humans have been on earth a very short time.
　　C. Compared to thesize of dinosaurs, human seem incredibly small.
　　答案：B
　　分析：解答推论题时方法如下：
　　1）如果定位句位于段首，或定位句后有冒号，破折号时，往后找答案。
　　2）如果定位句中有this等代词时，则往前找答案。
　　3）如果定位句既位于段首，句中又有代词，则同时读句前和句后，并作比较，得出答案。
　　此题属于第三种情况，读上文，知“恐龙占据地球的时间如此之长”；读下文，得“人类，在这种标准下，不值得一提”。两者相比，人类在地球上的生存时间比恐龙短，所以正确答案选B。
