关于雅思阅读的段落：
雅思阅读相比之下，对于段落的考察要求比较低，但是因为小标题题这种题型的存在，烤鸭们在备考的时候，也要拉高自己对于读段落整体速度的能力。
例：
Second,litigation may no longer be quite the deterrent it once was.Criminal cases leading to jail terms for top executives are as rare as socialists at Goldman Sachs.And civil law has lost its bite.America has long used class-action（集体起诉）suits to punish firms and compensate consumers.Tort costs（侵权成本）born by firms are equivalent to about 2%of GDP a year,higher than in other countries（这块本质而言都是让步用的，是在陈述的是litigation的deterrent的性质，在读的时候就应该拉醒自己，这块并非是陈述的重点）.Nonetheless（读的时候的重点出现开始转折，论述litigation的not deterrent it was once）,life has got easier for firms.Arbitration clauses,in which customers and staff forfeit the right to pursue class actions,have become more common.Firms are more likely to extend cases to appeal,which can take up to a decade.One veteran class-action lawyer says that financial penalties have shrunk relative to the value of many firms,which in turn have risen as a result of a takeover wave.She complains that for the top 50 firms,the threat of a multi-billion-dollar legal settlement“doesn’t move the needle any more”
备注：在读for the top 50 firms这句话的时候需要注意的时，这块话之前之内都没有转折，说明这句话和前面的句子本质而言都是方向一致的，所以move the needle这个表述即使看不懂也没有关系，反正论述的点都是在说明litigation may no longer be quite the deterrent it once was.顺便说一下move the needle是英文里面的俚语，表示带来改变/产生变化的意思。
