阅读理解题在各类语言测试中都占有很大
的比重。一方面量大，占去整个试卷文字量的半壁江山；另一方面单词有相当的难度，个别单词是一般词典所查不到的；再者，分值高，一般在30%左右。可见，阅读理解能力的高低决定着英语考试的成败。阅读理解是对语言综合运用能力的一种检验，它包括：一、能力是运用语法、词汇知识生成及理
解语句的能力。要提高语言能力，扩大词汇量是重要的一环。
二、扩大知识面：从近年的试题包罗万象，品种有科普、政史、经济、法律、教育等；
体裁有议论文、叙述文、说明文等，如果考生缺乏相应的专业知识和文化背景，不了解文章的结构特点，只靠阅读技巧来读一篇文章，仍然难以透彻理解原文。
阅读理解题是考查考生语言能力的重点，考生应能理解主旨要义；理解文中的具体信息；做出简单的判断和推理；理解文章的基本逻辑结构；
理解作者的意图和态度。题型分为：主旨大意题、细节理解题、推理判断题、词义猜测题、观点态度题。
三、使用正确的阅读方法：
先看问题，对简单易懂的文章可以细读全文，再回答问题；对难度适宜的文章可以先浏览所有问题，粗读全文再作答；对生词较多、难度较大而题材有不熟悉的文章，可先浏览所有问题，再带着问题找答案。可资借鉴的方法有：
1.略读法：快速阅读，了解大意，综合主题句，找出全文的主题思想。主题句的位置一般在段首或段末。这取决于文章是演绎性的或是归纳性的，演绎性的文章的主题句多在段首，而归纳性的文章多在段末。这里的“快速阅读”指比平常快一倍的速度去阅读。
2.查读法：顾名思义是为查找某一特定信息而进行的阅读，速度比略读还要快。一旦找到答案，就立即停止阅读。
四、阅读技巧：做题速度成为考场决胜
的一道坎儿。要想提高阅读速度，必须掌握阅读技巧。它们是：
1.意群阅读法：指以意群为单位进行阅读，一个意群之内不得停顿。
2.扩大视距法：阅读能力强的人一般可
将一行文字分成3---4个注视点，视距越宽，阅读速度越快。
3.信号词法：信号词在文章中起着承上启下的作用，它们不仅标明前后文之间的联系，同时还帮助你调整阅读下文的速度。
(1)暗示同类性质的词有：moreover, furthermore, What is more, for instance等。
(2) 表示转折意义的词有：but, yet, however, though,altough/even though,even if,while/as等。(3)表示先后顺序的词有：first, second, third, finally等。
(4)表示因果关系的词有：because, for, so, because of等。
(5)表示结论的词，有：as a result, in a word,in summary,in conclusion, to sum up, so, therefore 等
4.猜词法，这是阅读理解不可或缺的方。
(1)根据构词法猜词义,是由词干加前缀或(甚至)后缀构成的。
(2)根据上下文猜词义,一根据整个句子来推断生词的含义，二要挖掘标点符号的功能来猜词义，三学会认识语言情景，四认可生词的模糊含义，
专题导读
1人物类阅读属于记叙文文体，描写的都是比较有名的或有重大成就的人，如政治要人、艺术明星、体育明星等，内容主要涉及某人的生平事迹、趣闻轶事、生活背景、个性特征、成长经历和奋斗历程等，其特点是以时
间的先后或事件的发展为主线，脉络清楚，可读性较强。此类文体主要考查学生对细节
的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。做此类阅读
理解题时往往是材料看得懂，题目不好做。做题时要注意以下几点：1. 理清事件的线索。
2. 分析人物的个性特点。
3. 把握记叙的顺序，是顺序、倒叙还是插叙。
2故事类文章描述的是一件具体事情的发生、发展和结局通常有时间、地点、人物、事件等。有些故事是以事件发展的经过为主线叙述的，在叙述的过程中有详有略；有些故事是按时间的顺序叙述的，有顺叙、倒叙等。从总体上来讲，故事类文章的难度通常不大，在阅读过程中，我们一直在某个线索的引导下，随着作者的思路去了解一个故事或一件事情的始末，因此会感到比较轻松。命题者往往从故事的情节、人物或事件之间的关系、作者的意图和态度、故事的前因和后果等方面入手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。阅读此类文章应特别注意：1若是一般故事性文章，应找到故事的发生、发展、高潮和结局；2.若是“哲理故事”，要理解故事所蕴含的哲理意义；3.若是“奇闻轶事”，应体会对话的风趣性，进而才能感受幽默的精髓。
3时事新闻类阅读材料在近年高考中屡屡涉及。这类材料往往语言地道，内容时新，贴近生活，时效性强。阅读材料的组成有一个共同的特点，即都是由标题(Headlines)、导语(Introductions)、背景(Background)、主体(Main body)和结尾(Ends)五部分构成。此类文章主题鲜明，文章的第一句话或第一自然段往往就是对整篇文章的高度概括，文章的主题大意即出于此。此外，此类文体的设题常有一个最佳标题的选择，而标题也恰好就是文章的主题大意，因此读懂首句或首段是至关重要的。考生在阅读时事新闻时，要善于捕捉新闻细节，根据问题找到相关句并能分析理解长难句，善于根据上下文猜测单词、短语的含义，善于归纳、概括、推理、判断及简单计算，这样才能做好这部分试题。
4广告作为信息的载体，与人们的生活密切相关。
广告具有浓郁的生活气息和强大的感染力和表现力，使其成为日常生活中一道亮丽的风景。广告英语与普通英语存在许多差异，广告具有鲜明的目的性，即说服顾
客进行购买，这种目的性决定了其语言的特色和风格，使其独立于其他文体。广告的题材包括旅游广告、招聘广告、生活指南、通知告示、使用规则、注意事项、商品说明等。广告的语言特点是人名、地名、专有名词多；生词多；缩略词、独词句、祈使句、省略句多；词汇较生僻，语言不规范，结构不完整。此类文章主要考查
考生提取信息和处理信息的能力，既注重特定细节的
筛选、类比、综合，又注重推理判断题的考查，题目
设置较容易。答题时要耐心细致，当问题与材料相同时，要学会“对号入座”；当问题与原文不同时，要
学会同义变换、解析概念、归纳事实。
5文化类阅读理解文章属高考常选材料之一。这类文章常涉及文化、教育、法制、宗教等方面的文学艺术、发明创造、文化遗产保护、宗教与文化、风俗与习惯、道德与法制、中外文学名著节选、各国学校教育、家庭教育等等。这类材料的命题点往往落在主旨大意题、事实细节题上。在做这类阅读理解题时，应注意以下几个方面： 1. 先题后文。先读题目，再带着问题读文章。这类阅读理解文章相对来说事实细节题稍多一点，如果带着问题读文章，有利于我们抓细节。
2.先做细节题。因为做完了局部性的事实细节题后，自然会加深我们对文章的理解，这样更有利于做主旨大意题。
3. 重点敲定主旨题。主旨大意题提问的形式主要有两大类：一类是Main idea型；一类是Topic或Title型
6史地自然类文章一般涉及某个国家、地区、河流、山脉、
海洋、城镇等的地理位置以及与之相关的社会生活、社会风情、政治经济、人文历史、自然资源、文化习俗、文化遗产等方面的情况，相当一部分文章还附有图表
供理解或选择。文章选材来源于英语国家的主要名胜或历史事件。命题以细节题为主，有一定的主观推断题；涉及一定的地理常识或历史知识。阅读史地类文章时，要重点弄清楚各个地名、人名之间的相互关系。与环保相关的话题自然是高考备受关注的一个热点问题，各地的阅读试题中几乎都有一篇这方面的文章。有关于环境问题讨论的；有关于人类对于环境的影响的；有关于探讨自然环境的发展规律的等等。在命题上多以细节理解题、综合分析题和推理判断题为主。
7社会生活型阅读文章在高考中的出现频率较高。它涉及人们衣、食、住、行等方面的社会万象，生活经历、饮食、饮食与健康、休闲与娱乐、旅游、服装、住房等内容。这类文章同学们读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来也比较得心应手，在高考阅读理解题中，这类文章属搭配类材料，所以，它的命题多数属于中低等难度的送分题，
如事实细节题、计算题、识图题等。此类文章的命题多以事实细节题为主。做题时，要先从题干中找到关键性词语，然后快速在文章中寻找相关细节，细心比较所给选项与文中细节的区别，在准确理解了细节的前提下，最终确定最佳答案。
8科普类文章主要包括自然科学类、前沿科技发明类和医疗卫生类，其取材密切联系当前经济和科技等方面的变化，以介绍某一科学现象居多。科普类文章具有结构严谨，逻辑性强等特点。其主要命题形式有事实细节题、词义猜测题、推理判断题以及主旨概括题等，其中推理判断题居多。从词汇角度来看，在科普类文章中，词汇的意义比较专一、稳定、简明、不带感情色彩，具有单一性和准确性的特点。从语法和句子结构方面看，句子结构较复杂，长难句较多，语法分析较困难。文章中常用被动语态、定语从句等。
科普文常用的修辞手段有：
1.下定义：有时为了突出事物的主要内容或主要问题，往往用简明扼要的语言给对象一个说法，使读者对被说明的对象有明确的概念。
2.举事例：举出有代表性的恰当的例子，能够反映一般的情况，真切地说明事物特征。
3.做比较：选择有外部或内部联系的事物进行比较，往往能增强说明事物的效果。
4.打比方：适当运用比喻，能够增强说明的形象性和生动性。
科普说明文在结构上常采用的写作方法有：
1.总分式。在说明事物或事理时，段落(层次)之间有一个总分关系，表现为由总到分、由分到总。
2.承接式。各层之间按照事物的发展过程，或者按时间、因果、条件等关系安排，前后相互承接。
3.递进式。后边在前边的基础上进一步说明，各层之间的关系是由浅入深。文章的命题除了遵循科普阅读的命题方式外，还经常考查文章的篇章结构和修辞手法。

阅读理解专题一 主旨大意题(A) 阅读下列短文或短文片段，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案或可以填入空白处的最佳答案： A Nobody likes an old poop(傻子). Developing a sense of humor is part of becoming a mature, emotionally healthy individual. Laughter is good for the soul, builds friendships and relieves stress. It serves as the glue for social situations and as an ice-breaker for sadness and boredom. If you've ever been told to "lighten up" or "chill out", you should save the blue attitude for serious situations and develop your sense of humor. Forgive the accidental. A sudden fall is humorous not because we like to see people fall, but because it surprises. From a spilled (溢出)water glass in a meeting to Aunt Rae's teeth coming off in the Thanksgiving turkey, the embarrassment of accidents can be relieved by humor and a helping hand. After making sure that nobody's hurt, forgive accidents with a chuckle (咯咯笑) rather than a scolding. Look for the unexpected. The kid who used to look at you with his eyes closed during a test had the idea. Parents who serve green eggs and ham to their children on graduation day get the idea. Unexpected actions lighten an atmosphere and relax people. Learn to laugh with your kids. Most of what children say and do is funny. Help them learn that accidents are sometimes funny and sometimes occasions for joining in and helping another human being. By sharing laughs and attempting to explain humor, you develop your sense of humor, as well as help kids develop their own sense of humor. 1. What is the best title for the passage? A. How to Develop a Sense of Humor B. Ways to Become a Healthy Individual C. The Function of Humor D. Proper Attitudes Towards Humor B People believe that climbing can do good to health. Where can you learn the skills of climbing then? If you think that you have to go to the mountains to learn how to climb, you're wrong. Many Americans are learning to climb in city gyms. Here, people are learning on special climbing walls. The climbing wall goes straight up and has small holding places for hands and feet. How do people climb the wall? To climb, you need special shoes and a harness (保护带) around your chest to hold you. There are ropes tied to your harness. The ropes hold you in place so that you don't fall. A beginner's wall is usually about 15 feet high，and you climb straight up. There
在处理文章标题的选择时，要避免下列三种错误： ①概括不够(多表现为部分代整体，从而导致范围太小); ②过度概括(多表现为人为扩大范围); ③以事实或细节代替抽象具体的大意。 1.2012朝阳期末 Why play games? Because they are fun, and we can learn even more while playing. Following the rules, planning your next move, acting as a team member —these are all ―game‖ ideas that you will come across all through your life. They can help you in different ways. Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are very interesting. But perhaps more importantly, they translate part of life into exciting games that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating (合作). Many children’s games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups. For example, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which improves the hand-eye coordination (协调) needed in fishing. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competitions. People who watch the event (比赛项目) know that a gold medal is a win for the whole country, not just the athlete who got it. For countries experiencing natural disasters (灾害) or wars, an Olympic win can mean so much. Sports games are also an event that unites (团结) people. Football is the most popular sport in the world. People all over the world play it —some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian football player, has discovered a way to spread hope through football. He created a foundation (基金会) to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a bright future. Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other parts of your life. 55．What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Games can help people in different ways. B. People are advised to play games for fun. C. An Olympic win means a lot to every country. D. Sports can get people all over the world together. 2.2012朝阳期末 Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost mention recycling, which is the process (过程) of treating used things, such as paper or steel so that they can be used again. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more things than we need. We are now dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the possible greenest way, but it would be far better if we did not bring so many things home in the first place. Here is an example. In the UK, the total of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a household’s waste. In many supermarkets, foods are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard. Too much packaging causes serious environmental problems. The UK is running out of different kinds of ways for dealing with this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect (效果). Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The best way of avoiding this problem is to stop producing such unnecessary things in the first place. Food waste is another serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers (消费者) to buy more than they need. They seldom encourage customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue. But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to connect packaging with quality (质量). We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. Is it true for all the products? I n fact, more and more companies realized the importance of protecting the environment. They try to package what really should be packaged, including products in good quality. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize how many unnecessary things are being
主旨大意题 (一)确定主题句，锁定主旨 (2015·北京·D) Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life，mostly for the better.However，social changes that are brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes. An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college.Surveys(调查) on this topic suggest that parents today continue to be “very” or “somewhat” overly-protective even after their children move into college dormitories.The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago.This is usually interpreted as a sign that today's parents are trying to manage their children's lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate. However，greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to let go of their “adult” children. In the context(背景)of this discussion，it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents' involvement with their grown children.If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently，would this have been possible？Probably not.On the other hand，does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasn't present a generation ago？Many studies show that older parents—today's grandparents—would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier. Furthermore，studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children.The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new；nor are requests for more money to be sent from home.This phenomenon is neither good nor bad；it is a fact of college life，today and in the past. Thanks to the advanced technology，we live in an age of bettered communication.This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college.But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined
主旨大意题的阅读理解题 主旨大意是全文或相关段落的概括和总结，主要考查学生在理解文章的基础上对全文的高度概括。 （1）Stepping into a pool of water is common enough, but who could ever imagine stepping into a pool of fish?

第一节主旨大意（I） 主备：张莉琴 主旨大意题是高考阅读理解中常考的题型之一,主要考查考生把握全文主题和理解中心思想的能力。通常以概括中心大意、概括段落大意、选择标题以及判断作者写作意图等形式出现。主旨大意题是阅读理解题中的高难度题, ,主旨大意题几乎年年都有,而且在大部分地区的阅读理解题中会有1~3道考查此类题。 一、设题方式：? 1.The main idea/key point of this passage is that . 2.The passage is mainly about . 3.The best title/headline for this passage is . 4.The topic/subject discussed in this passage is . 5.From the passage we can learn/conclude that . 6.The last paragraph is chiefly concerned with . 7. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage? 8. Which of the following best states the theme of the passage? 二、主旨大意题正确选项特征 1.涵盖性强,覆盖全文或全段。 2.确定的范围恰当,既不太大,也不太小。 3..精确性强,不会改变语言表意的程度及色彩。 三、主旨大意题干扰选项特征 1.过于笼统,不知所云。所给选项内容概括的范围过大,超出文章所述内容。 2.以偏概全,主次不分。所给选项只阐述了文章的一部分内容,或以文章中的细节信息或个别词作为选 项的设置内容,或以次要的事实或细节充当全文的主要观点。 3.移花接木,偷换概念。所给选项被命题者有意识地把本属于A的内容放在B上,若不留神,极易选错。 4.无中生有,生搬硬套。所给选项的关键词虽然在文章中谈到了,但经过仔细阅读分析之后,发现选项的 内容与文章的内容毫无联系。 四、主旨大意题解题思路 1.标题归纳题 标题具有醒目性、概括性和针对性的特点。醒目是唤起读者阅读文章的兴趣;概括性, 针对性是标题要直接指向文章的主要特点。标题归纳题与中心大意题具有共同之处,当文章主旨是一个短语或一句简洁的话时,我们可把它看作标题;但是文章主旨往往是作者写作目的或写作内容的归纳,一般不作为文章标题。解答标题归纳题需掌握以下三种方法: ①正面肯定法:在理解文章主旨的基础上,揣摩哪个选项能准确概括主旨; ②反面否定法:拿各个备选项去设想用它们写出来的“文章”应咋写, 然后和原文对照,排除不符选 项; ③研读备选项本身:研读备选项里面的中心词、修饰词的变化、结构、概括性等。 [全国Ⅰ,D篇]The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, uneasiness, or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap (间隙) with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for under standing a person’s needs. Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just

高考复习——阅读理解之主旨大意题 （一） With the development of science and technology, new inventions, especially new electronic products, have made people's lives easy and convenient. But as the saying puts: A coin has two sides. One day, I was walking in the park with a friend and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and…I became invisible, absent from the conversation. The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine. As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation(疏远) index goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person any more. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated. Pumping petrol at the station? Why say good morning to the attendant when you can swipe(刷)your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to a teller who might live in the neighborhood when you can just insert your card into ATM? Pretty soon you won't have the burden of making eye contact at the grocery shop. Some supermarket chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those check-out people who look at you and ask how you are doing. I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account. Giving them up isn't wise…they're a great help to us. It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy. More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up a call because I didn't really have time to talk. The communications industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier. So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging, with people who live near me，no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home. （1）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
