一、关注首句,领会大意通过首句可以明确文章话题,了解篇章结构,预测全文内容。
尾句往往是作者的点睛之笔,通过尾句一般可以更加真实、确切地体会到作者的写作意图、对待事件的真实态度等核心内容。
例:From my second grade on,there was one event I feared every year:the piano recital(独奏会)和尾句的With his first recital,my father taught me more about courage and determination than all the words he used those 30plus years ago.表明了文章的主旨:作者本来很反感弹钢琴,但是父亲的行为感动了自己。
作者认为他的实际行动比30多年以前说的话更有感染力。
二、注重语境,理清行文逻辑夹叙夹议文以叙述为主,绝大部分篇幅是在描述事件,而作者的观点及态度往往隐含在叙述中,这就要求考生增强语篇意识,抓住文章的叙事线索,弄清文章的内在逻辑关系,根据上下文内容做出选择,并适当进行逻辑推理是解题的关键。
三、找准标志词,弄清故事发展模式夹叙夹议文通常使用对比、强调、让步、举例、结论、顺序和对照等手段。
考生应注意观察文章的结构特点,根据表达这些手段的衔接词来正确理解故事情节。
常见标志词有:(1)并列关系:and,not only...but also,that is to say等;(2)因果关系:because,for,so that,in order that,due to,thanks to,thus,therefore,so等;(3)对比关系:while,whereas,as,rather than,instead of等;(4)转折关系:although,though,even if,nevertheless,despite,but,yet,however,on the contrary等;(5)递进关系:also,then,besides,in addition,furthermore,what’s more等;(6)顺序关系:first,then,on the one hand等;(7)转变话题:by the way,what I really mean...等。

Good class notes are essential to good study skills. If you study bad notes, it's pretty clear what you won't perform very well on tests. But what are good notes? Good notes mainly record the most important facts and enable you to understand how every fact fits into a larger puzzle.Many students fall into the trap of attempting to write down every word the teacher speaks. This is unnecessary, but even worse, it's confusing. The key to good notes is identifying the most important things to write down.You will usually find that each lecture has an overall theme or common thread. If you read back over previous class notes, you will see that each day's lecture will usually address a specific chapter or topic. Your notes will make more sense to you if you identify a common thread and create a frame of reference in your head before the lecture begins.When you understand the overall theme or message for the day, you will be able to identify important facts and understand why they matter. When you start with a frame in your head, you can see where each fact, or a piece of puzzle, fits within the frame.There are a few ways to identify a theme for a framework. First of all, if the teacher has assigned a specific chapter or passage for the next class, you can be pretty certain that the next lecture will focus on that reading. Even if the information is different from the chapter you read, the theme or topic will often be the same. Teachers are different, however. Some teachers will assign readings on one topic and lecture on something completely different.When this happens, you must find the relationship between the reading and the lecture.Another good way to identify a theme for the day is to ask the teacher. Before each lecture begins, simply ask if the teacher can provide a theme, title, or framework for the day's class. Your teacher will probably be very glad you asked and may even start providing a theme or framework for each day before the lecture begins.You may find that it helps to draw pictures while you take notes. No, this doesn't mean you should doodle (胡写乱画) while the teacher is talking! Instead, you may find that you can know the theme or overall picture of a class lecture when you turn words into diagrams or charts. For example, if your biology teacher talks about osmosis(透析), be sure to draw a quick and simple picture of the process.3. improve4. attempt5. frame/theme6. help7. identify/find 8. assignment 9.
