本节讲作者态度题

• 例子本身不重要，重要的是例子前后的观点
• 碰到难题，难以下手，仔细分析逻辑。
• 带双引号的，和作者观点是相反的，翻译时可以在前面加 “ 所谓的 ··· ”。
• 语言的二义性，不是语法能解决的问题。只能通过是上下文来看。
  比如 “ 将军用被子盖在身上 ” “我的头像牛B吗？”
• 如果作者的态度没有提出的时候，1、利用文章的框架，2、找形容词副词 3、找转折处的语境 4、找情态动词（should, must ) 之后的内容。来判断

课堂题外话
	在新东方我们反复强调过，我们从来不会让你们进行 —— 跳读。因为我们认为，说一切讲跳读的人，都是跳大绳的，你们记好这句话，是特别不负责任的。
	因为在真实的考试现场，一个卷子放在你面前，你告诉我你敢不敢跳？这时决定你命运的一场考试，你敢不敢跳？所以所有在什么课上宣称是“这个地方可以跳读，那个地方可以跳读 ”的，我觉得都是跳大绳的。对不对就这么简单，就是为了满足一些学生投机取巧的偏好嘛，你就想什么都不读直接拿分嘛，你交卷好了呗。他这不就是迎合这个，人的劣根性嘛，不劳而获嘛对不对。
