考研英语阅读，判定作者态度题的三大方法
在考研英语阅读理解题型中，作者态度题每年都会涉及，题量不会很大，基本每次一题。能否正确把握作者态度对于文章的整体理解是至关重要的。
1.标志：attitude
2.作者的态度只分为三种：支持或赞同；中立或客观；怀疑、批评或反对
3. 判定作者态度的方法
A）寻找带有作者强烈感情色彩的名词、动词、形容词或者副词来判定作者态度。
如2009年大纲样题（1996年真题）“The growth of the limited liability company and municipal business had important consequences. Such large， impersonal manipulation of capital and industry greatly increased the numbers and importance of shareholders as a class， an element in national life representing irresponsible （不负责任的，明显是一个贬义词，作者就是批判股东的）wealth detached from the land and the duties of the landowners; and almost equally detached from the responsible management of business.”“Fortunately， （幸运的，明显后面连接的是作者支持的，即行业公会起了一个好的作用）however， the increasing power and organisation of the trade unions， at least in all skilled trades， enabled the workmen to meet on equal terms the managers of the companies who employed them.”
61. According of the passage， all of the following are true except that ________.
［A］ the shareholders were unaware of the needs of the workers
［B］ the old firm owners had a better understanding of their workers
［C］ the limited liability companies were too large to run smoothly
