专题06高考阅读理解七选五一、考情分析“七选五”阅读题是高考新题型。

新课程标准要求：阅读理解题主要考查学生理解书面语篇的能力，其中包括对语篇内容、语篇结构的理解和把握，也包括对语篇内容的分析、阐释和评价。

高考英语阅读七选五题型要求考生从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系，理解句子之间、段落之间的关系，对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握，并具备运用语法知识分析理解长难句的能力。

可以说，此题型是对语言能力和阅读理解能力的综合测试。

高考英语新题型“七选五”阅读题的具体考试形式，就是将短文中的若干个句子(如五个句子)挑出，打乱顺序与另外两个句子置于短文之后。

学生根据短文内容，从短文后的七个句子中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项是多余选项。

此题型主要考查学生理解语篇上下文逻辑关系的能力。

句子在段中的位置不同，所起的作用也不同。

命题人之所以采用段首、段中和段尾三种挖空方式，正是利用挖空位置的暗示作用和挖空上下文的提示作用，来考查考生的逻辑思维能力。

段首、段中、段尾题在文中所起的作用可归纳为下表：一、解题步骤第一步：浏览全文，做出预判。

同时理清全文的结构，了解文章大意，关注每个空格的位置。

一般来说，小标题类的文章是按“总分”结构或“总分总”结构叙述的。

段尾句用来总结全文或者提出希望。

第二步：分析选项，尤其根据选项中的代词、连词等来预测前后句可能存在的逻辑关系。

第三步：回归原文，根据空格前后推理。

在推理过程中，关注并列连词、转折连词、相同句式或相反句式等，排队一些选项，并结合上下文意，推断出可填选项。

最后，也是最关键的一步，检查一遍。

将所填选项代入，通读全文，看上下文是否连贯，结构、语境、逻辑是否一致。

二、解题技巧：1、以最快的速度略读七选五的大小标题、首段、每段的首句，及表示句、段关系的连接性词语(特别是however, but等后的内容)等重要部分，以了解文章的基本结构和内容大意。

Most employers respect honesty in their employees.F. Try a compromise.G.

Your figure, income, education, apartment, theweather, and even the tiniest inconvenience can become a cause for feeling upset.Those who develop the habit of pitying themselves lose the sympathy (同情) of people around them. (2)Assess everything in terms of money.Some people think that happiness can be achieved by having lots of money and that you can’t really enjoy life if you don’t wear fancy clothes, live in a big house or drive an expensive car. (3) Instead, they think it’s their ability to attract it. A truly successful person is not totally dependent on his or her money.(4)Scientists say that people who don’t feel like they belong in their jobs are very likely to feel unhappy and live in poverty. The reason for this is their feelings that make them do what they don’t want and don’t like to do. To get rid of this habit for good, you should put your strength and energy into something satisfying.This is the only way to achieve excellent results.Stay away from your relatives.(5) .And that’s obvious, because it’s the only place where you can findrelief and support when everything comes crashing down around you.A.

If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t. (1) The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.● (2)Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that! (3) Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.●Don’t believe in a clear finish line for goals.It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control. (4) If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when you’d like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.●Be sure that you don’t see difficulties as failures.Difficulties mean only one thing: it’s not time for your goal to be completed yet. That’s it! It doesn’t mean you failed; it doesn’t mean you’re weak;it doesn’t mean you’ll never achieve your goals. (5) You’ve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.A. Never give up on yourself.B. Failure only exists in your own mind!C. That’s exactly how failure makes us feel.D. It simply means you have not done enough yet.E. You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached.F.

Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good results.9.Vegetarians (素食者) around the world have long believed that a vegetarian diet isa healthier choice than a meat-based one.

A． B．C． D．2．Videos on the website are .A．watched over 70 million timesB．voted by their usersC．based on newspaper storiesD．created by users3．What do and have in common?A．They include funny videos.B．They include valuable advice.C．They include debates on education.D．They provide satirical news.BFood storing is common in members of the crow(乌鸦) family.A new study tested the birds outside this naturally occurring behaviour，which may have evolved(进化) specifically because it gives crows a survival advantage.Some crow species are known to naturally use tools to recover food.So the researchers tested whether the birds could store and recover a tool so they could get it at their food after a gap of 17 hours—something we wouldn’t expect them to do naturally.But they were able to instantly select the tool out of a number of unnecessary items.In another experiment，the researchers taught crows to select a token(礼品券) from a number of items so that they could then exchange for food.Again，the birds then showed that they could plan for the future using this new behaviour.This is different from all of the previous studies in future planning，which have focused on naturally occurring behaviour.For example，we know that chimpanzees(黑猩猩) select，transport and save appropriate tools for future needs.These studies have shown that animals can plan for the future—but they left an important question open for debate.Are animals only able to plan to use abilities that have evolved togive them a specific advantage，or can they flexibly and intelligently apply planning behaviour across various actions？Most critics would say the former，as the animals were tested in naturally occurring behaviours.But the new research provides the first evidence that animal species can plan for the future using behaviour that doesn’t typically occur in nature.This supports the view that at least some recognitive abilities in animals don’t evolve just in response to specific problems.Instead，it suggests that animals can apply these behaviours flexibly across problems in a similar way to humans.We need to investigate how flexible behaviour evolved.Then we might be able to see how crows’ abili ty to plan for the future fits in with their broader cognitive powers.4．What’s the new finding about some crows according to Paragraph 1?A．They can store food.B．They can use tools to recover food.C．They can store and recover tools.D．They can select and store food.5．What are crows trained by scientists to do when given a token?A．Reject it casually.

B．Increase.C．Change. D．Invest.9．Which service of The People Walker isn’t mentioned in the text?A．Cheering up the clients.B．Accompanying the clients.C．Buying the clients food.D．Offering a sense of security.10．Why do people prefer Chuck to walk without wearing the shirt?A．To keep the walk comfortable.B．To avoid being recognized.C．To attract more new friends.D．To keep themselves alone.11．What do we know about Chuck McCarthy from the text?A．He has lost confidence in his acting career.B．He hopes to find excitement in people walking.C．He has inspired other people to be more creative.D．He earns more as a people walker than as an actor.Ⅱ.七选五Every one complains.Even if you argue that you are the happiest person in the world you still complain sometimes.Sometimes you complain：without even realizing it，but rarely is it ever helpful. 12 Here are some tips to stop complaining and give up the negative thoughts：13When you find yourself thinking or saying a negative comment about something or someone，stop and force yourself to say something positive instead.Seek the help of a cheerful friend to change you when you complain and help you to see the positive aspect in the situation.Make a list of things we are grateful for.We often com plain about the things we don’t have without noticing those things we already have.Be grateful for what we have in our life because we are lucky simply for being ourselves. 14Learn to adapt to the changes.There are many things we can’t change.15 Always find the positive side of each situation regardless of however difficult the situation is.With parents’ and friends’ support，we can survive any life changes.Allow yourself to vent(发泄) your feelings every once in a while.Constantly ignored negative thoughts could add up.If you are really going through a rough time，don’t be afraid to share your feelings with a close friend or family members or see a therapist.Find what makes you happy.16 Maybe it is time to make the hard decision to move on to another job or career.Uncover what your biggest complaints are about and see if you can change the situation to make you happy.Choose happiness，focus on the positive sides and be kind always!
