其实，考研英语的学习也是有一定的规律和方法技巧的，我们常说的一句话叫“得考研阅读者得考研英语”。可想而知其中的阅读是有多重要，而且它的分值占比也是最大的，为40分。而我们要想拿到阅读题的分数，就得知己知彼。其实阅读题也可以进行更细致地分类：主旨大意题、例证题、推断题、词义句意题、态度题、细节题，而其中考察最多的就是细节题。我们今天我们就来走进细节题。

(Para. 4)From career to community and family, these contrasts suggest that in the aftermath of the searing Great Recession, those just starting out in life are defining priorities and expectations that will increasingly spread through virtually all aspects of American life, from consumer preferences to housing patterns to politics.

(Para. 5)Young and old converge on one key point: Overwhelming majorities of both groups said they believe it is harder for young people today to get started in life than it was for earlier generations. While younger people are somewhat more optimistic than their elders about the prospects for those starting out today, big majorities in both groups believe those “just getting started in life” face a tougher climb than earlier generations in reaching such signpost achievements as securing a good-paying job, starting a family, managing debt, and finding affordable housing.

37. It can be learned from Paragraph 3 that young people tend to ______.

38. The priorities and expectations defined by the young will ______.

[A] depend largely on political preferences

[B] reach almost all aspects of American life

[C] focus on materialistic issues

[D] become increasingly clear

39. Both young and old agree that ______.

首先拿到题后，先识别题型，确定了是细节题之后，我们再采取细节题对应的解题方法。解细节题的关键是找准定位句，大纲要求的考察目标就是找到找到并精准理解细节信息。

所以我们解题的关键就是一定要找到题目对应的定位内容。我们用“题文同序”的方法可以将其定位到具体的段，本题可由上下两题题干帮助定位到第四段。

然后再利用题干中的关键词到第四段中进行精准定位。

(Para. 4)From career to community and family, these contrasts suggest that in the aftermath of the searing Great Recession, those just starting out in life are defining priorities and expectations that will increasingly spread through virtually all aspects of American life, from consumer preferences to housing patterns to politics.

但是我们发现第四段其实就一句，妥妥的长难句。这也是同学们再做题的时候经常可

能会遇到的情况。所以这个时候我们不要慌，不要着急去通读，可先重点看题干关键词集中的部分，若对应不到答案，再扩大阅读范围。

本题中，可根据题干“The priorities and expectations defined by the young will”定位到第四段下述划横线位置。

(Para. 4)From career to community and family, these contrasts suggest that in the aftermath of the searing Great Recession, those just starting out in life are defining priorities and expectations that will increasingly spread through virtually all aspects of American life, from consumer preferences to housing patterns to politics.

所以可以先看这部分去对应答案。

38. The priorities and expectations defined by the young will ______.

[A] depend largely on political preferences

[B] reach almost all aspects of American life

[C] focus on materialistic issues

[D] become increasingly clear

本题很明显可通过原文中的“that will increasingly spread through virtually all aspects of American life, ”对应到[B] reach almost all aspects of American life，所以本题我们很容易拿到两分。
