考研人数逐年增加，竞争之激烈使得我们不得不加急复习的日程。众所周知，阅读理解占据了考研英语二100分试卷的一半分值，而考研英语阅读文章大多来自英美国家的主流报刊杂志，所以如果能在日常就多多阅读这些文章，对以后读懂文章做对题目来说会大有裨益。
学习步骤如下：
1.不看汉语译文自己看一遍短文做理解
2.看汉语译文比对自己理解的意思与之出入
3.强化记忆重点单词（以记忆其汉语意思为主）
Outside directors are supposed to serve as helpful, yet less biased, advisers on a firm's board. Having made their wealth and their reputations elsewhere, they presumably have enough independence to disagree with the chief executive’s proposals. If the sky, and the share price is falling, outside directors should be able to give advice based on having weathered their own crises.
短文翻译
外部董事的职责就是为公司董事会提供有益且公正的建议。他们已经在别处功成名就,所以应该有充分的独立性来质疑公司总裁的提议。倘若公司发展状况不好、股票下跌,外部董事应该结合自己应对危机的经验为公司出谋划策。

题目解析
22.【解析】根据题干直接定位到第二段首句“Outside directors are supposed to serve as helpful, yet less biased, advisers on a firm’s board”,这句话告诉我们独立董事所扮演的角色是advisers，第二句话“they presumably have enough independence to disagree with the chief executive’s proposals”指出独立顾问在公司中是享有独立性的，因此，D项为正确答案。A项的干扰来自于“made their wealth...elsewhere”，“在别处创造了财富”并不等于“慷慨的投资人”；B项干扰是源于修饰词less biased，文章中提到的是“yet less biased advisers”，并不是选项中的 executive ；C项的干扰源于文章第二段最后一句，“如果股价下跌，独立顾问应根据自己的经验给出建议”，是对股价下跌给出建议，并不是预测股价，所以不对。
