越来越多的考生想要考出雅思阅读7分以上的成绩来争取更好的机会。然而并不是每一位“烤鸭”都能游刃有余的取得这样的成绩。下面小编就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧。
雅思阅读7分 你需要知道这些
随着出国留学的日益盛行，更多考生将关注的目光投注在历史更加悠久，环境和质量更加过硬的名校上。那么势必造成考生对于雅思成绩的期望值加大，要求提高。
首先，最根本的造成考生不能顺利取得雅思阅读7分的原因还是考生的英语基本功不扎实。考生想要在考试过程中游刃有余，首先必须具备一定的词汇量。这其中还包括很多考生所不熟悉的比较专业的术语。除此之外，扎实的语法知识也是考生是否能取得高分的一个基本原因。
参加过考试的考生就会发现，在雅思考试中碰到长难句是常有的事情。没有一定的语法基础考生没有办法正确理解文章的意义甚至题目的意义。除了词汇和语法之外，考生如果想在考试当中取得不错的分数还需要对于英语的文章结构有一定的了解，这样有助于考生节约定位时间及增加定位准确性。
如考生经常会遇到的试验研究类雅思阅读文章。开始会介绍这个实验的一些基本情况，如试验主体、试验对象等等，接着会介绍试验的具体操作过程，然后是实验的结果，及最终的数据结论。考生如果熟知此类文章的结构，那么答题的过程必将被更快更好的完成。
在雅思阅读基本功扎实的基础上，考生如果对题型技巧及出题角度不熟悉，同样也会影响考生最后顺利地取得高分。雅思阅读考试的题型多变，有细节题，有大意题，有考察整体理解的题型，也有考察辨别信息能力的题型。各种题型的解题方式也不尽相同。包括学员的解题顺序也不一定就按照雅思考试考题的顺序。比如常见的细节段落配对题。
此种题型往往是文章的第一个大题，但是考生恰恰需要把这种题型放到最后去完成。理由很明显，在解答完其他的题目之后，考生会对于文章有更加全面的理解，解答的正确性会增加。同时，其他完成的题目中也有可能出现和此种题型中的题目出题点重复的情况，所以把这种题型放在最后做是比较经济的做法，既节约了定位时间，又增加了正确性。
在这里小编需要再提醒广大考生的是，想要取得高分，在掌握每种题型的解题技巧的同时，还需要研究的是考试的出题角度，研究各种题型考察的是何种能力，然后有针对性的去锻炼这方面的能力。近两年的雅思阅读考试中，所占比重最大的几类题型为细节配对题、是非无判断题、和摘要归纳题。之前常考的小标题配对在近两年的考试中所占比例并不大。
现在几乎每场考试都有细节配对题出现，那么其实可以反映出雅思阅读7分的获得更加注重考生的细节定位能力以及对于材料的理解能力。考生只有在熟知考官的出题角度的基础上，才能在备考的过程中做到有的放矢。
雅思阅读模拟练习及答案
A.
When Denis Hennequin took over as the European boss of McDonald’s in January 2004， the world’s biggest restaurant chain was showing signs of recovery in America and Australia， but sales in Europe were sluggish or declining. One exception was France， where Mr Hennequin had done a sterling job as head of the group’s French subsidiary to sell more Big Macs to his compatriots. His task was to replicate this success in all 41 of the European countries where anti-globalisers’ favourite enemy operates.
B.
So far Mr Hennequin is doing well. Last year European sales increased by 5.8% and the number of customers by 3.4%， the best annual results in nearly 15 years. Europe accounted for 36% of the group’s profits and for 28% of its sales. December was an especially good month as customers took to seasonal menu offerings in France and Britain， and to a promotion in Germany based on the game of Monopoly.
C
Mr Hennequin’s recipe for revival is to be more open about his company’s operations， to be “locally relevant”， and to improve the experience of visiting his 6，400 restaurants. McDonald’s is blamed for making people fat， exploiting workers， treating animals cruelly， polluting the environment and simply for being American. Mr Hennequin says he wants to engage in a dialogue with the public to address these concerns.
D.
He introduced “open door” visitor days in each country which became hugely popular. In Poland alone some 50，000 visitors came to McDonald’s through the visitors’ programme last year. The Nutrition Information Initiative， launched last year， put detailed labels on McDonald’s packaging with data on calories， protein， fat， carbohydrates and salt content. The details are also printed on tray-liners.
E.
Mr Hennequin also wants people to know that “McJobs”， the low-paid menial jobs at McDonald’s restaurants， are much better than people think. But some of his efforts have backfired： last year he sparked a controversy with the introduction of a “McPassport” that allows McDonald’s employees to work anywhere in the European Union. Politicians accused the firm of a ploy to make cheap labour from eastern Europe more easily available to McDonald’s managers across the continent.
F.
To stay in touch with local needs and preferences， McDonald’s employs local bosses as much as possible. A Russian is running McDonald’s in Russia， though a Serb is in charge of Germany. The group buys mainly from local suppliers. Four-fifths of its supplies in France come from local farmers， for example. (Some of the French farmers who campaigned against the company in the late 1990s subsequently discovered that it was， in fact， buying their produce.) And it hires celebrities such as Heidi Klum， a German model， as local brand ambassadors.
G.
In his previous job Mr Hennequin established a “design studio” in France to spruce up his company’s drab restaurants and adapt the interior to local tastes. The studio is now masterminding improvements everywhere in Europe. He also set up a “food studio”， where cooks devise new recipes in response to local trends.
H.
Given France’s reputation as the most anti-American country in Europe， it seems odd that McDonald’s revival in Europe is being led by a Frenchman， using ideas cooked up in the French market. But France is in fact the company’s most profitable market after America. The market where McDonald’s is weakest in Europe is not France， but Britain.
I.
“Fixing Britain should be his priority，” says David Palmer， a restaurant analyst at UBS. Almost two-thirds of the 1，214 McDonald’s restaurants in Britain are company-owned， compared with 40% in Europe and 15% in America. The company suffers from the volatility of sales at its own restaurants， but can rely on steady income from franchisees. So it should sell as many underperforming outlets as possible， says Mr Palmer.
J.
M.Mark Wiltamuth， an analyst at Morgan Stanley， estimates that European company-owned restaurants’ margins will increase slightly to 16.4% in 2007. This is still less than in the late 1990s and below America’s 18-19% today. But it is much better than before Mr Hennequin’s reign. He is already being tipped as the first European candidate for the group’s top job in Illinois. Nobody would call that a McJob.
