高考英語(yǔ)閱讀理解練習(xí)(附答案)

PAGE31培養(yǎng)孩子終生學(xué)習(xí)動(dòng)力高考閱讀理解技巧一、閱讀理解題選材高考閱讀理解題選材，一般遵循三個(gè)原則：1.文章一般為3篇（含信息匹配題），閱讀量在1100單詞左右；2.題材廣泛，包括科普、社會(huì)、文化、政治、經(jīng)濟(jì)等多方面內(nèi)容；3.體裁多樣，包括記敘文、描寫(xiě)文、說(shuō)明文、議論文、應(yīng)用文等。二、英語(yǔ)閱讀文體類型學(xué)會(huì)分析體裁的能力對(duì)我們做好閱讀理解來(lái)說(shuō)是非常重要的。由于不同的文體有不同的段落組織方式和脈絡(luò)層次，所以我們可以根據(jù)這種特點(diǎn)來(lái)快速分析文章的體裁：記敘文往往按時(shí)間順序展開(kāi)段落，文章有明顯表示時(shí)間先后的詞語(yǔ)。閱讀時(shí)抓住時(shí)間這條主線，弄清who、what、where、why與how。文章主旨要透過(guò)體察所揭示的人物、事件來(lái)進(jìn)行提煉。描寫(xiě)手法大多按時(shí)間跨度、空間順序、上下順序來(lái)展開(kāi)。閱讀記敘文體應(yīng)采取略讀和掃讀的方法，快速抓住文中描寫(xiě)的主要內(nèi)容，從整體上去把握文章的連貫性，進(jìn)而大體上揣測(cè)出作者的寫(xiě)作意圖及情感主線。高考閱讀就記敘文設(shè)題大多以細(xì)節(jié)理解為主。描寫(xiě)文通過(guò)細(xì)節(jié)的描寫(xiě)以畫(huà)面的方式來(lái)反應(yīng)事物的特征、性質(zhì)。對(duì)這種文章要迅速弄清其主題，主題詞往往出現(xiàn)在各個(gè)句子里，貫穿文章的始末；緊圍繞這個(gè)主題進(jìn)行閱讀，找到文章與之有關(guān)的信息，并確定信息與主題的關(guān)系。說(shuō)明文用以解釋或揭示事物的狀態(tài)、特征、演變、結(jié)果及其相互之間的關(guān)系，這類文體的文章，首句往往是主題句，開(kāi)門(mén)見(jiàn)山，說(shuō)明文章的關(guān)注對(duì)象：弄清作者的思路和段落組織的方式；把握次要信息及其與主題的關(guān)系。英語(yǔ)說(shuō)明文的總體結(jié)構(gòu)通常為三部份，說(shuō)明對(duì)象、說(shuō)明過(guò)程和歸納總結(jié)。常見(jiàn)的說(shuō)明方法：1，定義與詮釋說(shuō)明；2，舉例與引用說(shuō)明；3，分類與圖表說(shuō)明；4，比較與比喻說(shuō)明；5，分析與綜合說(shuō)明；就高考英語(yǔ)說(shuō)明文的閱讀而言，首先要抓住文章說(shuō)明的要點(diǎn)，也就是要抓住被說(shuō)明對(duì)象的實(shí)質(zhì)性特征；弄清作者從哪個(gè)角度、哪個(gè)層面開(kāi)始說(shuō)明；并明白文章最后的說(shuō)明結(jié)論。高考說(shuō)明文閱讀材料通常介紹最新科技、重大成就、生活時(shí)尚、流行現(xiàn)象等。了解說(shuō)明文的寫(xiě)作手法、說(shuō)明方法，理清短文結(jié)構(gòu)及段落中心思想是答題關(guān)鍵。議論文通常為三段式，即“論點(diǎn)、論據(jù)、結(jié)論”三部份組成。首先借助某一現(xiàn)象引出論點(diǎn)，然后通過(guò)一定論據(jù)從各個(gè)層面上加以推理論證，最后得出結(jié)論。議論文體主要考查學(xué)生對(duì)論點(diǎn)及論據(jù)的把握。因此，遇到議論文體時(shí)，應(yīng)采取抓主題句的方法來(lái)把握文章主旨，弄清作者的觀點(diǎn)。一般來(lái)說(shuō)，作者的論點(diǎn)通常在文章首段被引出，接著是對(duì)這一論點(diǎn)的邏輯推理和論證，最后為結(jié)論。還應(yīng)注意的是：在對(duì)論點(diǎn)論證的過(guò)程中，每一段的首句都是該段的主題句。把握全文論點(diǎn)、弄清論證各段的主題句、理解文章層次、找出中心論點(diǎn)的位置是理解議論文的關(guān)鍵。就議論文而言，其論證的常見(jiàn)結(jié)構(gòu)方式有：1，總分式 總分；分總；總分總；2，并列式 幾個(gè)論據(jù)之間屬于平等關(guān)系；3，遞進(jìn)式 幾個(gè)論據(jù)之間屬于遞進(jìn)關(guān)系；4，對(duì)照式 把兩種事物加以對(duì)比，以彰顯其中一種。應(yīng)用文屬于實(shí)用型文體，如書(shū)信、通知、日記、廣告等。應(yīng)用文閱讀要注意文中具體細(xì)節(jié)的把握與理解，弄清作者所傳達(dá)的實(shí)際信息及表達(dá)的具體內(nèi)容。閱讀時(shí)采取速讀與精讀相結(jié)合的方法，力求快速精確地查出試題所設(shè)置的關(guān)鍵內(nèi)容。9)Theparagraphfollowingthepassagewillmostprobablybe___.10)Theauthorimplied（suggested）that．．．推理是在既有信息的基礎(chǔ)上得出合乎文章內(nèi)容的內(nèi)涵意義，即某一問(wèn)題、某一觀點(diǎn)沒(méi)有直接表述，而寓意在文章的字里行間，要求通過(guò)文中信息分析推出某種符合作者思想、符合文章邏輯的內(nèi)涵意義。推斷則是指通過(guò)對(duì)文章進(jìn)行符合邏輯的綜合分析，推出文章未直接陳述的言外之意。推斷題推斷得正確與否，很大程度上取決于是否能正確把握作者潛隱在字里行間的語(yǔ)氣及觀點(diǎn)。Toarguethatzoosimprisonanimalsistomisunderstandwhatzoosareabout.Withoutzoosmanyofthecreaturesweloveandadmirewouldnolongerexist.Everysingleday，overonehundredanimalspeciesvanish.Scientistspredictthatasearlyas2050onequarteroftheEarth’sspecieswillbecomeextinct.26.

Heexpressesadesirethatmoreofthembebuilt.4、作者態(tài)度題的技巧此類題目的主要提問(wèn)方式是一般提問(wèn)方式如下：Howdidthewriterfeel…?Theauthorseemstothinkthat______.Thewriterwritesthistextto______.Thewriterbelievesthat______.Thewritersuggeststhat______.Theauthorwantstoappealto_______.Thewriteristryingtopresentapointofviewin______.Theauthor’sstyleis______.Theauthor’stonewouldbebestdescribedas_______.Whatistheauthor’sopinionof______?Whatistheauthor'smainpurposeinthepassage?這一類考題大都要求考生就作者對(duì)論述對(duì)象持什么樣的態(tài)度做出推斷，如作者對(duì)所陳述的觀點(diǎn)是贊同、反對(duì)，還是猶豫不定，對(duì)記述或描寫(xiě)的人、物或事件是贊頌、同情、冷漠，還是厭惡。作者的這種思想傾向和感情色彩不一定直接表述出來(lái)，而往往隱含在字里行間。因此，進(jìn)行這種推斷時(shí)，我們既要依靠短文的主題思想作為推力的前提，又要注意作者的措辭，尤其是形容詞一類的修飾語(yǔ)。確定作者態(tài)度，可以有兩種思路：1、問(wèn)全文主體事物的(包括主題)，可以根據(jù)闡述主題或有關(guān)主體事物的相關(guān)句中的形容詞、副詞或動(dòng)詞確定作者的態(tài)度；2、如果問(wèn)的是對(duì)某一具體事物的態(tài)度，則可以定位到具體相關(guān)句，然后確定答案。英語(yǔ)閱讀理解中表示作者態(tài)度的詞匯一贊同positiveadj.肯定的,積極的，確實(shí)的favorableadj.贊成的，有利的approvaln.贊成，承認(rèn)，正式批準(zhǔn)supportiveadj.支持的，支援的enthusiasticadj.熱心的，熱情的defensive為……而辯護(hù)，防衛(wèi)的practical實(shí)際的logical符合邏輯的reasonable合理的rational理性的二否定negativeadj.否定的，消極的，負(fù)的，陰性的disapproval不贊成objection異議，反對(duì)/objective反對(duì)的opposition反對(duì)critical批評(píng)的worriedadj.悶悶不樂(lè)的,焦慮的impractical不實(shí)際的illogicaladj.不合邏輯的irrelevant不相關(guān)的radicaladj.激進(jìn)的biased有偏見(jiàn)的prejudiced

2、概括性強(qiáng)3、短小精煉。常見(jiàn)的標(biāo)題型題干：1)

此文沒(méi)有主題句。全篇共四句，只陳述了四個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)(detail)性的事實(shí)。因此就答案本身看，個(gè)個(gè)都對(duì)。讀者只能將所有的details綜合起來(lái)，進(jìn)行邏輯推理，才能構(gòu)成一個(gè)沒(méi)有言明的主題思想(unstatedmainidea)。由于文中主要涉及了JoshuaBingham接受教育的情況，即作者想告訴我們的是：JoshuaBingham接受過(guò)良好的教育，所以答案是Ｃ?！锟傊?，閱讀水平的提高不是一兩天的閱讀就可以見(jiàn)效的。想要提高閱讀能力，一是要培養(yǎng)良好的閱讀行為習(xí)慣；如：要用眼光看，不要用手指去點(diǎn)；要默讀，不要小聲讀。二是要積累大量的詞匯，把閱讀中的高頻難詞熟記，每次閱讀后要整理好生詞，然后記住其意思。三是要廣泛地做課后閱讀，堅(jiān)持每天讀1-2篇文章。四是不要一遇到生詞就查字典，要先猜其意義，等做完題目后再查字典，以免影響閱讀速度。五、題目類型A類題：可以直接從原文中找到答案的題目A類題為拿分題丟分原因：1）憑印象做題，準(zhǔn)確率低。2）時(shí)間把握最容易出問(wèn)題：忘記內(nèi)容的時(shí)候往往會(huì)回到文章中去找答案，一篇文章往往要讀好幾遍。A類題解題技巧：看清題目所問(wèn)的內(nèi)容之后，要在原文中劃出原句，并標(biāo)上題號(hào)。這樣做的目的：1）做到萬(wàn)無(wú)一失，保證把該拿到的分?jǐn)?shù)拿到手。2）減少閱讀文章的次數(shù)，爭(zhēng)取寶貴的時(shí)間。B類題：不能夠從原文中直接找到答案的題需要經(jīng)過(guò)分析、判斷、推理之后才能解答的題。該類題是失分題，往往是出題人用來(lái)拉開(kāi)學(xué)生梯度和層次的題。B類題包括：文章主題和中心大意等，一般都是主旨題。B類題解題技巧：1、以原文為依據(jù)，不參雜個(gè)人意見(jiàn)，要客觀不要主觀。2、答案是比出來(lái)的。答案不選對(duì)的，只選最好的。因?yàn)?，有時(shí)候四個(gè)答案都是對(duì)的。所以，當(dāng)看到第一答案是正確的時(shí)候，也要看后面的答案。遇到這種情況，往往有學(xué)生鉆牛角尖。老師給學(xué)生解釋的時(shí)候，也可以這樣說(shuō)：你的答案沒(méi)錯(cuò)，但是另一個(gè)答案更好，更全面。答案不選對(duì)的，只選最好的。比答案的原則是：好的>不知道的；不知道的>不對(duì)的。3、注意絕對(duì)化的詞。如果答案選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)絕對(duì)化的詞，比如：all，always，never，nothing，every等等，除非文章當(dāng)中使用了該類詞匯，否則，一般都要排除。比如，原文中出現(xiàn)了這樣一個(gè)句子：Almosteveryonelikesthemusic.答題時(shí)，要你判斷如下這個(gè)句子正誤（TrueorFalse）：Everyonelikesthemusic.<——該句子應(yīng)該是錯(cuò)誤的。4、答案要避免以點(diǎn)帶面，以偏蓋全。尤其是多個(gè)選項(xiàng)都有道理，難以挑選正確答案的時(shí)候，要注意選擇最符合題目要求的一個(gè)。5、“傻瓜”原則。文章中沒(méi)有提到的就當(dāng)時(shí)不知道，不要枉自猜測(cè)，自作聰明。一切以文章內(nèi)容為準(zhǔn)。六、閱讀練習(xí)（A篇練習(xí)）OnThursdayafternoonMrs.Clarke,dressedforgoingout,tookherhandbagwithhermoneyandherkeyinit,pulledthedoorbehindhertolockitandwenttotheover60sClub.ShealwayswentthereonThursdays.Itwasaniceoutingforanoldwomanwholivedalone.Atsixo’clockshecamehome,letherselfinandatoncesmeltcigarettesmoke.Cigarettesmokeinherhouse?How?How?Hadsomeonegotin?Shecheckedthebackdoorandthewindows.Allwerelockedorfastened,asusual.Therewasnosignofforcedentry.Overacupofteashewonderedwhethersomeonemighthaveakeythatfittedherfrontdoor“amasterkey”perhaps.SoshestayedathomethefollowingThursday.Nothinghappened.Wasanyonewatchinghermovements?OntheThursdayafterthatshewentoutatherusualtime,dressedasusual,butshedidn’tgototheclub.Insteadshetookashortcuthomeagain,lettingherselfinthroughhergardenandthebackdoor.Shesettleddowntowait.Itwasjustafterfouro’clockwhenthefrontdoorbellrang.Mrs.Clarkewasmakingacupofteaatthetime.Thebellrangagain,andthensheheardherletter-boxbeingpushedopen.Withthekettleofboilingwaterinherhand,shemovedquietlytowardsthefrontdoor.Alongpieceofwireappearedthroughtheletter-box,andthenahand.Thewireturnedandcaughtaroundthehandleonthedoor-lock.Mrs.Clarkeraisedthekettleandpouredthewateroverthehand.Therewasashoutoutside,andtheskinseemedtodropoffthefingerslikeaglove.Thewirefelltothefloor,thehandwaspulledback,andMrs.Clarkeheardthesoundofrunningfeet.65.Mrs.ClarkelookedforwardtoThursdaybecause_____.A.sheworkedataclubontheday B.shehadvisitorsonThursdayC.shevisitedaclubonThursday D.aspecialvisitorcameonThursday66.Whatdoestheexpression“amasterkey”inParagraph3mostprobablymean?A.Akeytoallthedoors.
