65、，找准原文原文句子是正确选项的来源。推理判断题的正确选项是原文句子的推论。我们可采用“关键词定位法”来找准原文，即：先看题干，抓住关键词汇，然后运用略读、查读技巧，找到文章中与此题相关的段落和语句。第二步：立足原文，必推一步找准原文后，我们就以原文为依据，必须推一步，且只推一步。因此，直接摘抄原文信息的选项是错误的。依据原文，可以推出多个动作，我们应该选择最先发生的动作或原文动作后紧接着发生的动作，其他动作都是错误的。第三步：合理推测，不乱推测要忠于原文，合理推测，千万不要胡乱推测，以免得出脱离原文、凭空臆断的结论，或是与文章内容不相符甚至完全相反的结论，或是不合常理或不合逻辑的结论等。如本文第4题，根据最后一段中的“Im glad, so near his heart, worth every moment”可推断出史密斯对新闻行业由衷热爱。
