2015年12月17日四级深度阅读第二篇的话题是金钱观，属于社会类话题，难度相对于深度阅读第一篇略难。文章讲到经济衰退(recession)对于个人和人际关系的影响，如是否选择度假、争吵发生的概率等，又讲到男女不同的`金钱观念，文章最后建议男女之间应该开诚布公的讨论涉及到钱的问题，这样才能维持一个健康的关系。

按照做题的顺序，各位考生在考场上先标注段落顺序，一共4个自然段。第二步，划取定位，62题的定位词是名词vacationing;63题比较直接，定位词为“Line1, Para2”;64题是数字和大写字母，为“YouGov poll of 2,000”;65题是大写人名，为“Kim Stephenson”;66题的定位在题干里有所提示：“at the end of the passage”。纵览五道考题的定位词选取，均在昂立四六级阅读课程及大型冲刺讲座上强调过，各位学员在定位方面可谓毫无压力。

特别讲一下63题，考察对于“money is known…to bring a relationship to its knees”这句话的理解，“bring sth. To its knees”的意思为ruin or destroy, 结合上下文，这句话的意思为dispute over money may ruin a relationship. 如果考生实在无法理解，可以利用昂立课堂上多次讲到的“把may”技巧。

选取定位词之后，接下来的一步为锁定定位词所在的原文加以理解，结合选项，去伪存真选出最佳答案。
