高考英语辅导讲座--阅读理解题对策
高考英语阅读理解题的考查重点是文章的中心思想或主旨大意(概括题),文章的细节,词义、寓意的猜测以及逻辑推理,判断。 ◆ 细节理解题 考查学生对文章的某一段落、特定细节或重要事实的理解,这类题包括在文章中直接找出答案的直接理解题和需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行转换的语义转换题。 【常见的设题形式】 1. 以5W1H(what,who,when,where,why和how)开头的疑问句。例如:Why did Andy fail to notice the swarm of bees earlier?Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the swarm of bees in the passage? What effect does reading have on the author? What did the writer want to do when his mother came home? How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house? 2. 以填空形式出现的句子。例如: Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because ______.
Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she ______. 3. 以according to 开头的句子。例如: According to the text, Kody ______. According to Jane in the first paragraph,the low ______.
According to the writer, what eventually brought about the disappearance of thepark? 4. 是非判断:true/false, nottrue / mentioned或except等。例如: Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas? 【技巧点拨】 这类题的干扰项常用“偷天换日,以假乱真”的技法,使用与原文相似的句型结构和大部分相似的词汇,却在不易引人注意的地方换了几个词汇,造成句意的改变。 为了提高做这种题的准确性,可以使用检索阅读法(scanning),带着问题有的放矢地在阅读材料中寻找某一特定的标识语(如日期、数字、专有名词、原因和特点等)的具体位置。题干中的标识语是快速寻找答案依据的“路标”。例如: What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?(2010年浙江卷) A. To introduce Stephanie to her. B. To prevent her from seeing his painting. C. To put the materials back in the yard. D. To show his artwork to her. 分析 在文中迅速找到描写他的妈妈到家时的句子:在第四段“I saw a car in the distanceand jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn’t wait to show her mymasterpiece.”可知我当时是很高兴地想把我的杰作给母亲看,故选D。以上各题运用这种方法,抓住题干的关键词就能找到正确答案。 ◆ 推理判断题 考查考生在理解文中的直接观点和事实的基础上,领悟作者的言外之意的能力,也就是根
据作者的暗示得出合理的结论,属深层理解题。此类试题的设计常常包括infer, imply, suggest,conclude等词。 【常见的设题形式】 The author says“I’m so glad I did. ”(in para. 2)because ______. What can be inferred about the author as a child? The last sentence of the passage implies that if another drought came, ______. It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer’s opinion, ______. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India ______. 【技巧点拨】 做这种题时,应清楚所要解答的问题是针对细节进行判断,还是针对主题思想、作者的意图进行判断。针对细节推理,应迅速锁定题干关键词在文章中的位置或范围,然后推断;针对主题思想推断,应先依据主题,再分析句子间的逻辑关系,区别观点与例证、原因与结果、主要观点与次要观点。要切记的是所有判断一定根据文章信息,而不是根据常识;选项中若是文中明确表述,无需推理的,一定不是正确选项;反之,文章中没有明确表达的,需要归纳总结,推断的选项才是正确的。若选项中都不是明确表达的,就利用排除法,分别与文中内容对照排除不正确的选项。例如: It can be learned from the passage that parents should ______. A. encourage children to paint B. value friendship among children C. discover the hidden talent in children D. protect rather than destroy children’s dreams 分析 本题若依据生活常识,则会误选A或C。但是从文章开头作者叙述开心地画彩虹的过程,到被母亲要求把街道清洗干净,到最后的感慨,都表明作者写作的最终想要表达的内容之一:父母应该支持孩子的某些创造性的行为,而不是一味的否定,故选D,所以推理题一定要依据文章,不可臆断。 ◆ 主旨大意题 考查考生对所读材料的主旨和大意的掌握。基本论点、文章标题、主题、大意或段落大意等是考查的一般范围。这种题型考查学生对文章的高度概括和总结的能力。 【常见的设题形式】 Which of the following can best describe Andy’s escape from the bees? Which of the following can be the best title of this text? What is the theme of the story? 【技巧点拨】 干扰项的设置常为“一孔之见、以管窥天”,利用考生常犯的受思维定势影响或考虑不周等错误,以局部代替整体设置陷阱。 答题关键是把握主题句,主题句通常是第一个句子或最后一个句子;若第一段没有,最后一段或许第二段文章就应该是主题句的栖身之处。概括全文的中心要建立在每个段落的中心基础之上,各段中心句的整体归纳便是文章的中心思想。 特别注意:记叙文反映作者情感态度,而夹叙夹议文中议的部分是叙述部分的拓展和升华,都是文章的中心思想所在;要找出某种结果的直接原因,而不是间接原因;要全面的观点而不是片面的、个人的观点。 ◆ 词义推测题 考查学生根据上下文推测某个生词在语境中的含义的能力。切不可望文生义,常用词在此处不是它的常用词义,要根据语境来理解。 【常见的设题形式】 Theunderlined word“voice” in the second paragraph most probably means“______”.
A. an idea B. a sound quality C. a way of writing D. a world to write about 分析 根据文中 “... but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find hisown voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagreeswith, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world.”可以推断出voice所表达的意思是“写作方式”,故选C。 【技巧点拨】 做这种题通常会有下面这些情况:在画线词的前一句,本句或后一句中常有一个与之意义相近,相同或相反的词,其标志词有连词and, or,转折词though, although, still, instead of, ratherthan, while, but, on the one hand ... on the other hand, unlike等;也可以通过修饰这个词的定语从句、同位语从句的含义推测单词的含义,这时从句前常见的词有or,similarly, that is(to say), inother words, namely, or other, say等。 总之,考生在做记叙文类文章阅读时,不仅要看懂故事情节,还需要领会和针对作者的不同目的,运用不同的答题方法,作出正确的选择。

Helpingthem enjoy science can be easy; there's no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive labequipment. You only have to share your children's curiosity（好奇）. Firstly, listen to theirquestions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. Thechildren asked me "textbook questions" about schooling, salary（薪水）and whether I likedmy job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, "Nowthat we're finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?"After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, "Have you ever seen a grasshopper（蚱蜢）eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?"This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two ly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, afterasking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for achild to think. When adults increase their "wait time" to three seconds or more, children givemore logical（符合逻辑的）, complete and creative y, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion,don't jump in with "That's right" or "Very good". These words work well when it comes toencouraging good behavior（行为）. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal thatdiscussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying "That's interesting" or "I'd neverthought of it that way before", or coming up with more questions or push a child to "Think". It doesn't make sense, children are always thinking, withoutyour telling them to. What's more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The childwill try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smallertarget（目标）for your , show; don't tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than anylesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at theirfingertips through a magnifying glass（放大镜）, and they'll understand why you want themto wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates（蒸发）, set a pot of waterto boil and let them watch the water level drop.41.

Toyota will soon be the world’s No. 1 automaker, while the Big Three-nowadaysknown as the "Detroit Three," posted $7. 4 billion combined loss for the three months endedSept. 30. Even Detroit’s best performer, General Motors, couldn’t win over Wall Street bycutting its losses to only $115 million, which is an improvement over last year’s third-quarterloss of $1. 7 billion. The problem: despite all the factory closings and job cuts, GM, Ford andChrysler are still losing money on every car and truck they sell in ’s the matter with Motown? It all comes down to the models it sells. Car buyerssimply don’t find them as appealing as foreign wheels, which explains why Japanese modelsfetch an average price of $24,289, while American cars go for just $21,597, according to anew study by car consultant Harbour Felax. Increasingly, car buyers see Detroit’s products astoo big, too gas-thirsty or too other words, fixing Detroit’s product problems requires a serious check. For now,Detroit has only a quarter of the fast-growing small-car market, while nearly two thirds of itsmodels are slow-selling ones, SUVs and minivans. "No automaker can suddenly make atransfer and double its number of small cars," says GM car president Bob Lutz. But sellerswant Detroit to move faster. The Japanese make over their new models every five years,while American automakers take seven or eight. Detroit has been slow to vary because itbecame addicted to the big profits it once made off SUVs. Only now are they making fuel-efficient cars like the Ford Edge and GMC Acadia, while the Japanese have an eight-year leadin that hot market. “Detroit needs a complete reinvention（change）of how they do business,” says MikeJackson, CEO of AutoNation, America’s top car dealer. That reinvention will require Detroit torethink how it conceives, designs and executes cars. Like the Japanese, Detroit needs toengineer multiple models. They need to simplify how they engineer them, so that they areeasier to build, have better quality and make more money.56. Which of the following is not among the Detriot Three members?A. Chrysler B. General Motors C. Ford D. Toyota57.

D. take up most of the fast-growing small-car market59. According to the passage, which statement about Detriot’s cars is NOT true?A. They are cheaper than Japanese ones now on average.B. They are too big, or too bland.C. They are as appealing as foreign wheels.D. They need more fuel than foreign cars.60. Which of the following is not included in the reinvention activities?A.

In turn, George's son Mike spent a year in Fred's home , a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months'study, the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what hehad expected-much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. Therewere almost no outside activities（活动）.Family life, too, was different. The father's word was law, and all activities were aroundthe family rather than the individual（个人）. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, hemissed having a car. "Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have agood time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it."At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. "Isuppose I should criticize（批评）American schools", he says. "It is far too easy by our I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we takepart in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training forcitizens（公民）. There ought to be some middle ground between the two. "46.

As we go about our everyday lives, we mentallyattempt to place people in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether theperson in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or asalesman, whether the unfamiliar person on our property（领地）is a thief or a meter reader,and so statuses we assume often vary with the people we meet, and change throughoutlife. Most of us can, at very high speed, assume the statuses that various situations of social interaction consists of identifying and selecting among appropriate statusesand allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fitour actions to those of other people, based on a constant mental process of assessmentand understanding although some of us find the task more difficult than others; most of usperform it rather effortlessly.A status has been compared to ready-made clothes. Within certain limits the buyer canchoose style and material. But an American is not free to choose the clothes of a Chinesepeasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among the clothing presented byour rmore, our choice is limited to a size that will fit, as well as by our made a choice within these limits we can have certain changes made, but apart fromminor adjustments, we tend to be limited to what the stores have on their shelves.

How many at-bats（轮到击球）do you think you’ll need to get the78 hits?” Without hesitation, Pete said, “78.” The reporter yelled back, “Ah, come on, don’t expect to get 78 hits in 78 at-bats, do you?”Mr. Rose calmly shared his rule in life with all the reporters who were anxiously awaitinghis reply. “Every time I step up to the plate, I expect to get a hit! If I don’t expect to get a hit, Ihave no right to step in the batter’s box in the first place! If I go up hoping to get a hit, then Iprobably don’t have a prayer of getting a hit.
