閱讀測驗是很多考生畏懼的英文題型之一，其實閱讀測驗的解題並不難，記得先從題目看起，再去看文章。如果是與題目無關的句子，不要浪費太多時間去鑽研，這樣還可以節省作答的時間。
I feel that if there is, in this world, one person whom we can
touch totally and unabashedly, we will never die of loneliness. One
person! I don’t say fifty, a hundred, a thousand. It does not matter
who that person is, woman to woman, man to man, someone you
5
can go to and who will listen.
The problem is: although most of us can select the joy of
intimacy, many people choose not to. Some believe that intimate
relationships are risky. They believe that intimacy will hurt, and that it
is going to make the greatest demands on you, bring out your
10
deepest feelings, and make you feel miserable sometimes.
Moreover, it seems that our modern society does not reinforce
intimacy. One out of every four marriages ends in divorce. As George
Leonard says, “we can orbit the earth, we can touch the moon, but
this society has not devised a way for two people to live together in
15
harmony for seven straight days without wanting to strangle each
other.” It is said that intimacy is out of date, but I would like to assert
that intimacy is absolutely essential or we are all going to go mad. Go
ahead and live in isolation, if you can. I believe that you can judge
your level of mental health to the degree that you can form
20
meaningful and lasting relationships.

英銘老師：閱讀測驗是很多考生畏懼的英文題型之一，其實閱題測驗的的解題並不難，因為外國人寫文章都愛用破題法，在文章的第一段中會有主題句。例如在此篇文章的第一段中，有提到“I feel that if there is, in this world, one person whom we can touch totally and unabashedly, we will never die of loneliness.” (我想在這個世界上，如果有一個人，是我們可以完全及不怕羞地來接觸，我們永遠就不會死於孤獨)，所以文章一定跟人際關係有關。
