應(yīng)該以何種心態(tài)準(zhǔn)備考研？對(duì)于考研的人來(lái)說(shuō)，心態(tài)是非常重要的，如果說(shuō)一個(gè)人想考研成功，那么他需要付出40%的努力和60%的好心態(tài)，考研難的不是你付出了多么大的努力，而是說(shuō)在這個(gè)過(guò)程中你是以什么樣的心態(tài)來(lái)進(jìn)行復(fù)習(xí)，自我否認(rèn)是較大的敵人！看著身邊的同學(xué)有的已經(jīng)復(fù)習(xí)兩遍了，就開(kāi)始懷疑自己的方法是不是出錯(cuò)了，開(kāi)始擔(dān)心自己是不是考不上了，進(jìn)一步發(fā)展為自暴自棄，這是一部分人的通病，不要被身邊人的負(fù)面情緒所影響。

　　引言考研英語(yǔ)做為一門(mén)考研公共課，盡管大家都學(xué)了英文十幾，卻仍常常有總成績(jī)壓線掛在英語(yǔ)上的狀況，因此英語(yǔ)備考不僅僅是英語(yǔ)單詞、刷題。閱讀文章做為考研英語(yǔ)的高比例，只是做考研真題也許無(wú)法滿足你的閱讀量，因而以后會(huì)不定時(shí)執(zhí)行發(fā)布一篇英文美文，這種文章內(nèi)容都和考研英語(yǔ)閱讀文章同源，多讀必有益處。 　　?Many Britons feel they have to watch the pennies after recent inflation rises and years of flatlining wages. 　　很多英國(guó)人感覺(jué)，在近期的通脹和很多的薪水差不多以后，她們?cè)谶^(guò)生活上迫不得已節(jié)儉。 　　This extends to their supermarket shop， with four in people reporting they are concerned about the cost of food. 　　自然她們的考慮到范疇也包含商場(chǎng)，四成人說(shuō)她們擔(dān)憂的是食材的價(jià)錢。 　　Against this backdrop， grocery giant Tesco has joined the discount retailers， which the launch of "value-orientated" chain Jack’s. 　　在這里那樣的情況下，雜貨鋪大佬易購(gòu)添加了打折零售商的隊(duì)伍，發(fā)布了“以使用價(jià)值為導(dǎo)向性”的超市連鎖店Jack’s。 　　Yet in relative terms， the British grocery shop remains one of the cheapest in the world. 　　殊不知相對(duì)來(lái)說(shuō)，英國(guó)的雜貨鋪依然是世界最劃算的。 　　Half the price 　　一半的價(jià)錢 　　Britons spend an average of % of their total household expenditure on food to eat at home. This is less than any other country apart from the US and Singapore， according to data from market research firm Euromonitor. 　　英國(guó)人均值用餐開(kāi)支占家中開(kāi)支的%，據(jù)銷售市場(chǎng)發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略私人偵探 Euromonitor 的一項(xiàng)調(diào)研發(fā)覺(jué)，除開(kāi)英國(guó)和馬來(lái)西亞之外，英國(guó)是現(xiàn)階段全球在家里用餐開(kāi)支占家中開(kāi)支比最少的*。 　　Food spending varies considerably around the world. Greeks spend %， while Peruvians spend %. Nigerians spend the most on food in relative terms - % of their household budget. 　　依據(jù)此項(xiàng)調(diào)研發(fā)覺(jué)，均值家中用餐開(kāi)支占家庭收入比在世界各國(guó)差別挺大，例如古希臘占約%，玻利維亞占約%，而阿爾及利亞達(dá)到%。 　　The food consumed in the UK is also the cheapest in Western Europe - costing % less than the EU average， according to EU statistical body Eurostat. 　　據(jù)歐盟*審計(jì)局統(tǒng)計(jì)分析，英國(guó)的食品類消費(fèi)在歐洲也是最劃算的，比歐盟*平均低%。 　　It is also much cheaper in relative terms than the food bought by Britons’ parents and grandparents. 　　現(xiàn)階段英國(guó)人的食材占其收益比早已大大的小于祖輩和爺爺輩時(shí)期的占比。 　　The proportion of household income spent on food has more than halved over the past years， according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS)， while spending on housing costs and leisure activities has doubled. 　　英國(guó)*審計(jì)局的大數(shù)字發(fā)覺(jué)，英*中的基礎(chǔ)食材開(kāi)支占總開(kāi)支的占比，對(duì)比前早已遞減，而用以住宅成本費(fèi)和娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)的開(kāi)支則翻了一番。 　　Rise of the discounters 　　打折店鋪的盛行 　　Why have Britons come to spend less and less of their income on food？ 　　為何英國(guó)人花在食材上的錢越來(lái)越低？ 　　It’s partly a reflection of how people shop. 　　這在一定水平上體現(xiàn)了大家怎樣買東西。 　　Store loyalty has decreased over time， with consumers more likely to shop around for the best prices. 　　伴隨著時(shí)間的變化，消費(fèi)者已不熱衷某一店鋪，哪商品性價(jià)比高好，她們就要哪。 　　Four out of would not care if their usual supermarket closed， one survey of ， of UK consumers found. Almost one in five had switched from their main supermarket in the past year. 　　一項(xiàng)對(duì)于名英國(guó)顧客的調(diào)研發(fā)覺(jué)，四成英國(guó)人不在意她們一般 惠顧的商場(chǎng)是不是閉店。近五分之一的人過(guò)去一沒(méi)有惠顧過(guò)她們?cè)瘸Ｈサ纳虉?chǎng)。 　　Technology boost 　　技術(shù)性的提升 　　As with many countries， the UK has benefitted from mostly rising incomes， while food production has become more efficient. 　　與很多*一樣，英國(guó)關(guān)鍵獲益于科技創(chuàng)新產(chǎn)生的深刻影響，自然在其中包含食品生產(chǎn)高效率的提升。 　　Farming has become increasingly mechanised， which speeds up production and helps to maximise harvests. 　　機(jī)械自動(dòng)化的農(nóng)牧業(yè)加快了生產(chǎn)制造節(jié)奏感，并有利于最大限度地提升盈利。 　　At the same time， the way food is transported， stored and distributed has become increasingly streamlined.
