高考英语总复习专题攻略之阅读理解解题技巧之细节理解

只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 1 - 高考英语阅读理解解题技巧之细节理解 在 2008 年高考阅读理解中，对细节理解类题型的考查同往年一样，依然占了较大的比例， 全国及各省、市均有对此题型的考察，无一例外。 细节理解题要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节进行理解。它们大都是根据文 章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。有些问题可以在文章中直 接找到答案，有些则需要我们在理解的基础上将有关内容系统化才能找到，比如计算、排序、 是非判断、图形比较等。 常见的命题方式通常有： 1.特殊疑问句形式。以 when, where, what, which, who, how much/many 等疑问词开头 引出的问题； 2. 以是非题的形式。true /false, not true / false 或 EXCEPT； 3. 以 According to… 开头提问方式； 4. 以填空题的形式，如： （1）To avoid attracting mountain lions, people are advised. （2）By the first sentence of the passage author means that. （3）It seems that now a country’s economy depends much on. （4）If you are interested in knowing about what people’s life will be, you may visit. （5）The policemen were told “to look the other way” (the underlined part in Paragraph 2) so that . （6）The policeman who said “Good evening” to Rolls wanted to. 5. 就文中数字、排序、识图等提问。 做细节理解题时，大多数学生易出现的问题是阅读速度太慢，缺乏一定的快速阅读技巧， 考生要培养自己快速获取信息的能力。解答此类试题时，不必通篇细看原文，而常常可采取 “带着问题找答案”的方法．先从问题中抓住关键性词语。然后以此为线索。要快速地辨认 和记忆事实或细节，就要恰当地运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的段 落、语句．仔细品味，对照比较．确定答案。除了运用扫读法(scanning)外，还可以兼用排 除法．将“无此细节”和“与此细节相反”的选项排除。 了解细节题干扰选项的特点也有助于考生提高答题的正确率。一般情况下，干扰项有如 下几个特点：（1）是原文信息，但不是题目要求的内容；（2）符合常识，但不是文章内容； 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 2 - （3）与原文的内容极其相似，只是在程度上有些变动；（4）在意思上与原文大相径庭甚至 完全相反；（5）部分正确，部分错误。 有的细节理解题只要直接辨认不要求读者对客观的事实作出解释或判断，只要求从阅读 材料中直接获取信息。同时还要求读者记住重要细节，在必要的时候（做判断、推断或结论 的时候）能够准确而迅速地将他们回忆起来。解此类题要求考生快速抓住原文中的关键信息， 直接得出答案，但要注意往往答案与原文中的语句并非一模一样，而是用不同的词语或句型 结构表达相同的意思。有的细节理解题就需要通过有关词语和句子的转换。利用主要事实、 图表、图形来获取信息，然后利用因果、类比、时间、空间等关系将零碎的细节经过一系列 加工、整理，方能做出正确的判断．此类试题在高考中占大多数。 值得一提的是，有时原文中的信息可能只是一个短语，甚至一个单词，因此需要我们在 阅读中特别仔细才能捕捉到真正有用的信息。 细节理解题大致有如下几种常考题型： 1．描写类细节题 描写类细节题，常常考察考生对文中有关人物动作、思想感情、心理活动、观点，或事 件的起因、发展、过程、结果等方面的理解。这类描写信息往往较直接，一般不太需要考生 对它们进行较深入的理解，对于该类题，考生一般都可以较直接地从原文中找到与题目对应 的有关信息。 例题 You either have it, or you don’t—a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street? Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use is, we lose it. “Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.” Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions: ●If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing. ●If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 3 - stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route. ●Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are. Now you need never get lost again! 65. Scientists believe that_______. A. some babies are born with a sense of direction. B. people learn a sense of direction as they grow older C. people never lose their sense of direction D. everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth 66. What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage? A. They never have a sense of direction without maps B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around D. They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car. 68. According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to ________. A. ask policemen for directions. B. use walls, streams, and streets to guide yourself C. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairs D. count the number of landmarks that you see 【答案与解析】 65.选 D。根据第二段首句可知：科学家认为我们生来就有方向感。 66.选 C。根据第三段首句可知，七岁大的小孩就具备了辨别方向的能力。 68.选 B。根据 Jim Martland 所给的第三条建议中的“… by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you.”即可得出答案。 2．数据计算题 此类试题一般要求考生能根据阅读材料中给出的有关数据，找出计算关系，通过计算， 得出正确的结论。这类计算一般来说比较简单，关键是要弄清各数据间的逻辑关系，选准比 较的数据，弄清单位换算关系，确定计算方法，问题便迎刃而解了。对于数据较多、项目复 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 4 - 杂用时间或空间跨度较大的短文，通常可采用“列表法”，即按一定的规律将数据分门别类 地列出，化模糊为清晰，为计算打下基础。对于相对不太复杂的数据，可采用“推算法”， 即以有关数据为基准，进行简单的运算就可得出。 例题 … Tuition Fees (学费) Tuition fees are different from department to department, generally from $5,000 to $6,000 a year. For further information: tui @ waikato．ac．nz. Accommodation (住宿) You can have a room in a 4-bedroom flat, which will cost about $100 a month with other regular living costs of about $150 a month for one person.

A. $5,250 B. $8,000 C. $9,000 D. $11,000 【答案与解析】选 B。本篇是介绍新西兰 Waikato 大学的广告。从 Tuition Fees (学费)： Tuition fees are different from department to department．generally from$5，000 to$6， 000 a year. For further information：tui @waikato.ac.nz . Accommodation(住宿)： You can have a room in a4- bedroom fiat, which will cost about$100 a month with other regular living costs of about$150 a month for one person. For further information： acc @ waikato．ac．nz．可知答案为 B。$5000(学费)+$100(住宿费)x12(months)+$150(生活 费)x12=$8000． 3．排序题 这种试题要求考生根据事情发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系，找出事件的正确顺 序。做此类试题时可采用“首尾法定位法”，即找出事件发展的首与尾，迅速缩小范围，从 而快速选出正确选项。或直接逐一用排除法按顺序排除，得出正确选项。 例题 … People can use a home computer to make their shopping lists. Once at the store, a shopper can use a preferred customer card to start a system (系统) that will organize 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 5 - the trip around the store.

(招聘一名司机)。 （2）联想推测法 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 6 - 在些广告时间、日期、地点、电话、票价等用了缩略词，甚至一概没有提及，这就需要 考生前后连贯，充分想象，整体理解。搜寻已知信息，推断语篇意义。 为节省篇幅，特别是在商业广告中，常使用缩写词，尽管有些缩写不太规范，但却常用， 常见的缩写词有： Tel. =telephone number Ph. =phone Add (r). =address co. =company Ltd=Limited Max=maximum Min=minimum hr=hour t=time fig=figure ft=foot ml=mile doz=dozen Mt=Mountain P=page prof. =professor Dr. =doctor s=south n=north w=west Sta=Station pop=popular vs=versus Xmas=Christmas info=information VIP=very important persons hrs=hours aft=after ad=advertisement p/t=part time exp=experienced PC=personal computer MA=Master of Arts BS degree=bachelor's degree (学士学位) 例题 Welcome to Adventureland!

If you want to get a toy lion to take home, where will you most likely go? A. The Pyramid B. The Nature Park. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 8 - C. The Future Tower D. The Travel Pavilion 5. 图文转换题 此类试题要求根据短文中的描写找出相应的图形，或根据图形选出相应的文字。可采用 “文字锁定法”，即找出描述图形的句段，按“文”锁“图”，迅速锁定相关图形，或用“图 形标示法”，在图形中标出相应的内容，以便做题。 例题 The Home of My People When Lewis and Clark stepped onto the Weippe Prairie in present-day Idaho in 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 - 9 - September 1808, they met the Nez Perce Indians. In the following years, the white explorers（探险者）began to fight with the Indians for their land. Some Nez Perce chiefs signed agreements with the U.S. government, selling part of their lands. But the government always broke those agreements and demanded more land. Other chiefs refused to go along with the government’s plans. The most famous was Chief Joseph, whose people lived in the Wallowa Valley（present-day Oregon）. “In order to have all people understand how much land we owned, ”he once explained, “my father planted poles around it and said: ‘Inside is the home of my people…It circled around the graves（坟墓）of our fathers, and we will never give up these graves to any man. ’” But in 1874, the U.S. government declared the valley open for white settlement and ordered the Nez Perce onto a reservation（保留地）. Seeing that resistance was useless, Chief Joseph agreed to move. Later, fighting broke out between the Nez Perce and U.S. soldiers. Chief Joseph tried to lead his people to Canada, winning several battles against the soldiers during their flight. But finally, he was forced to give in. 56. Which historic site （on the map）lies in the south of today’s Nez Perce Reservation? A. Buffalo Eddy. B. Dug Bar. C. Joseph Canyon Viewpoint. D. Chief Looking Glass Camp. 57.

And even if they start again, Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal. “We have more important things to do, ” he said. 52. The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to _____. A. criminals B. pigeons C. the stolen cars D. demands for money 例题 2 … Many creative thinkers state that they have completely devoted themselves to the subject matter of the problem, often over fairly long periods of time. Indeed, it would be strange if they had not done this. Nothing in such statements supports the idea that there is anything very different about the problem solving that leads to discoveries of the great contributions to the society. The act of discovery, even in the relatively predictable (可以预见的) sense that it occurs in everyday learning, involves (涉及) a “sudden insight” which changes the problem situation into a solution situation. As we have seen, everyday discovery also requires that the learner have the knowledge of the rules gained in the past, which is involved in the solution. 54. What does the underlined word “this” refer to? A. Great contributions to the society B. Long-time study of the subject matter. C. Various statements about problem solving. D. Complete devotion to artistic creation. 【答案与解析】选 B。这里的 this 指代前面的内容，从本段的第一句可以看出，其指代 的是 Long-time study of the subject matter。
