考研英语阅读理解一共四篇阅读，通过我们对历年考研英语真题的数据分析，我们发现考察作者态度的题型是每年考研英语必考真题，下面为大家剖析下答题技巧。
考研英语阅读理解，每篇文章中常有一题考作者态度题，这类题型是有答题技巧的。下面为大家一一说明。
第一，某一事物是好是坏。作者对它是支持还是反对，态度都非常明确，而带中立色彩的词最不可能是正确答案。问作者对某事物的态度时，表示"客观"的词多为正确选项，如：objective, impartial, unbiased等;问作者对其提到的人们的观点的态度时，答案只能是肯定或否定，支持或反对。如：critical, approval, opposition, supporting等。
第二，既然写了文章www.med126.com，那么作者的态度就不可能漠不关心，因此见到indifferent，uninterested这类词可以首先排除。
第三，注意不要把考生自己的好恶态度糅进其中，要注意区分作者本人的态度和作者引用的观点的态度。
第四，当作者的态度没有明确提出时，考生要学会根据作者使用的词语的褒贬性去判断作者态度，如：wonderful(y)，successful(y)，positive(ly)，active(ly)，negative(ly), unfortunate(ly), doubtful(ly)等。
Example
Under the new Northern Territory law, an adult patient can request death probably by a deadly injection or pill-to put an end to suffering. The patient must be diagnosed as terminally ill by two doctors. After a "cooling off" period of seven days, the patient can sign a certificate of request. After 48 hours the wish for death can be met. For Lloyd Nickson, a 54-year-old Darwin resident suffering from lung cancer, the NT Rights of Terminally Ill law means he can get on with living without the haunting fear of his suffering: a terrifying death from his breathing condition. "I'm not afraid of dying from a spiritual point of view, but what I was afraid of was how I'd go, because I've watched people die in the hospital fighting for oxygen and clawing at their masks, " he says.(1997年 Passage 1)
The author's attitude towards euthanasia seems to be that of .
[A] opposition [B] suspicion [C] approval [D] indifference
作者通过living without the haunting fear of his suffering这一肯定性词语表达出自己的态度是[C] approval。
解答态度观点题应注意两点：
第一，区别作者的态度与其他人的态度。问文中某人对某事物的态度一般归入事实细节题。
第二，选项可能不再是态度明确的肯定或否定的形容词，而改为带有程度限制的形容词。一般带有绝对化或过于强烈的表示态度的词必错,如strong/complete/entire/enthusiastic等。而有保留的态度比较客观，因此常常是正确选项，如reserved(保留的)/qualified (有限制的，有条件的)/tempered (有所控制的)/guarded(慎重的)/consent (赞同)等。
