I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning. He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!"
Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep. I'm not at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for breakfast as soon as my mother calls.
But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (军乐队) in our bedroom could not wake him up. I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up immediately!"
But he just sleeps. After calling a few more times my mother has to come upstairs and pull Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with my little brother. Perhaps some day he'll learn to get up on time, but I really don't think so.

中考英语任务型英语阅读理解题解题技巧
[摘 要]
[关键词] 任务型阅读理解 失分分析 解题技巧
初中英语新课标倡导任务型的教学模式，让学生通过体验、实践、参与、合作、交流和探究等方式，学习和使用英语，完成学习任务，促进语言实际运用能力的提高。中考英语任务型阅读就是在遵循“课程标准”基础上，根据任务型教学设计而成的一种新题型。该题型要求学生在阅读理解的基础上，去完成一项任务或解决一个问题，它主要考查学生根据所提供语言信息具体解决实际问题的能力，即考查学生运用语言“做事”的能力；同时还注重考查学生的阅读理解、书面表达、归纳概括、分析理解、逻辑推理及社会生活知识的综合运用能力。
任务型阅读理解题题型丰富，近年来考查形式大致如下：回答问题型、判断正误型、阅读填空型、阅读排序型、阅读改写句子型、看图推断型。试题既可以按照其中一种形式出现，也可以混合出现。读写结合，既增加了试题的难度和区分度，又有效的促进英语学习朝着实用性方向发展，符合了新课改的要求。
考查近几年的中考英语任务型阅读理解试题后不难发现，阅读内容难度整体适中，易于理解，题目设计既不是很直接呈现答案，也不增添解题的弯度。但实际操作解题过程中，却很容易犯这样或那样的错误，从而导致了很多不必要的失分。因此，我们有必要让学生对任务型阅读有较全面的了解，熟练掌握任务型阅读的解题技巧。下面，笔者将结合学生答题常见错误进一步具体深入解析。
一、明确任务，关注题后要求
实例一：
（2009山东泰安）阅读下面的短文，并完成短文后的任务。
Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源), we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. (3) I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent (阻止) waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. (4) Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.
任务1：根据要求答题。(请注意问题后的词数要求)
1. List the wastes mentioned in the first passage: (within 15 words)
_________________________________________________________________
2. What problems can waste bring? (within 20 words)
(1) ______________________________________________________________
(2) ______________________________________________________________
任务2：将短文中划线的句子翻译成汉语。
3. ______________________________________________________________
4. ______________________________________________________________
任务3：请给短文拟一个适当的标题：(within 5 words)
5. ______________________________________________________________
【答案】1. ask for more food，forget to turn off the lights
2. (1) We’ll be short of resources.(fresh water, coal or oil.)
(2) We’ll have nothing to use and nowhere to move./What can we use in the future and where can we move?
3. 我认为我们应该对那些天天浪费东西的学生说不。
4. 如果我们都尽力的话，将来有一天浪费就不会发生了。
5. Stop wasting/No more wasting
分析：这道中考题形式多样，在同一道题中出现了收集并整理信息、回答问题、翻译句子、拟标题等多项任务。因此，在未读材料之前，应仔细阅读所给任务，做到心中有数，避免答非所问，从而有效的提高做题的效率和准确率。另外，仔细阅读后不难发现，任务1和任务3题后还有额外的附加要求（within 15 words，within 20 words，within 5 words)，考生稍加马虎，答题字数就容易超出警戒线！如多于任务一的作答，考生很易写上: Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom.（共24词）
二、）对照原文，作答适当修改
（2009甘肃兰州）
…….At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended(冒犯). ……
任务2. When you find you make a mistake in the chat room, what should you do?
_____________________________________________________________________
此题考生容易直接抄写原句，而忘记应将人称适当调整，答为：if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended..
附答案：I should correct myself and apologize to those that I have offended.
任务型阅读理解不但考查学生阅读理解的能力，还考查学生写的能力，所谓读写结合。所以在写的过程中就应特别注意书写规范：单词的首字母是否应大写，单词拼写无误，单词的词形、词性，句子的语法准确，时态语态正确，固定搭配等等。在翻译句子时尤其要慎重，结合语境，反复斟酌，努力做到万无一失。
下面是一道满分为10分的试题， 每题2分。
Do you think about your parents? “ Yes, of course.” You may answer, “ I buy a present for my mother on Mother’s Day. And I give my father a present on Father’s Day.?
Then what about the other days of a year? Always remember to think about your parents. Not just on some important days.
I have a friend. She lives alone. Her parents live in another city.
One day I went to see her. We had a nice chat. Then she wanted to make a call. She dialed( 拨打电话) the number, but then put the phone down. After ten seconds, she dialed the number again. “ Hi, mom…”
Later I asked, “ Why did you dial the number twice?”
She smiled, “ My parents are old. They can’t be quick to answer a call. (1)I always do so when I call them. I just want to give them enough time.”
My friend is a good girl. She is always thinking about her parents. You also want to be a good child, right? (2)why，her, learn ,So , not, from?
1. How should we really think about our parents?
答案一：Not just on some important days.
分析：回答不完整，不能完全覆盖答题的信息。 不能得分。
答案二：To always remember to think about your parents.
分析：问题是对方式状语提问，而答句则以目的状语形式出现，尽管意思表达明白，但只能得1分。因此，回答句子一定要依据问句的形式和内容答题。
答案三：We should remember to think about your parents.
分析：回归语境不难发现，答句漏掉一个关键词：always.只能得一分。
2. Why did the girl dial the phone number twice?
答案：Her parents are old. They can’t be quick to answer a call. She just wants to give them enough time.
分析：问题是一般过去时态，答句也必须在原文的基础上适当调整。这样的作答只能得一分。
3. What do you think of the girl?
答案：She is a good girl and care about her parents.
分析：答句是一个并列句，care 应使用第三人称单数形式，给一分。
4. 将文中划线的句子(1)译成汉语。
答案一：我总是这样做，当我打电话给他们时。
分析：答案不符合汉语正常语序，给一分。
答案二：当我打电话给他们时，我经常这样做。
分析：答案未将单词always准确译出， 扣0.5分。
答案三：当我打给他们时，我总是这样做。
分析：答案过于口语化，表达不清晰，给1分。
5. 将文中划线部分（2）连成一句话。

『伍』 七年级上册英语阅读理解题或任务型阅读题
（2009山东泰安）阅读下面的短文，并完成短文后的任务。
Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源), we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. (3) I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent (阻止) waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. (4) Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.
任务1：根据要求答题。(请注意问题后的词数要求)
1. List the wastes mentioned in the first passage: (within 15 words)
_________________________________________________________________
2. What problems can waste bring? (within 20 words)
(1) ______________________________________________________________
(2) ______________________________________________________________
任务2：将短文中划线的句子翻译成汉语。
3. ______________________________________________________________
4. ______________________________________________________________
任务3：请给短文拟一个适当的标题：(within 5 words)
5. ______________________________________________________________
【答案】1. ask for more food，forget to turn off the lights
2. (1) We’ll be short of resources.(fresh water, coal or oil.)
(2) We’ll have nothing to use and nowhere to move./What can we use in the future and where can we move?
3. 我认为我们应该对那些天天浪费东西的学生说不。
4. 如果我们都尽力的话，将来有一天浪费就不会发生了。
5. Stop wasting/No more wasting
分析：这道中考题形式多样，在同一道题中出现了收集并整理信息、回答问题、翻译句子、拟标题等多项任务。因此，在未读材料之前，应仔细阅读所给任务，做到心中有数，避免答非所问，从而有效的提高做题的效率和准确率。另外，仔细阅读后不难发现，任务1和任务3题后还有额外的附加要求（within 15 words，within 20 words，within 5 words)，考生稍加马虎，答题字数就容易超出警戒线！如多于任务一的作答，考生很易写上: Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom.（共24词）
二、）对照原文，作答适当修改
（2009甘肃兰州）
…….At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended(冒犯). ……
任务2. When you find you make a mistake in the chat room, what should you do?
_____________________________________________________________________
此题考生容易直接抄写原句，而忘记应将人称适当调整，答为：if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended..
附答案：I should correct myself and apologize to those that I have offended.
任务型阅读理解不但考查学生阅读理解的能力，还考查学生写的能力，所谓读写结合。所以在写的过程中就应特别注意书写规范：单词的首字母是否应大写，单词拼写无误，单词的词形、词性，句子的语法准确，时态语态正确，固定搭配等等。在翻译句子时尤其要慎重，结合语境，反复斟酌，努力做到万无一失。

He stood it as long as he could; then, with head lowered and arms flailing, he plowed through the crowed.
"You there!" challenged a thrill voice. "Can't you act like a gentleman?"
"Listen," he said, "I have been acting like a gentleman for an hour. From now on, I am acting like a lady."
我要表现得象位女士
一天，远东百货公司的女装大减价，一位高贵的中年男士想给太太买一件。可是，没过多久，他发现自己已被疯狂的女人冲得踉踉跄跄。
他竭力忍耐着。后来，他低下头，挥动双臂，挤过人群。
“你干嘛？”有人尖声叫道，“你难道不能表现得象位绅士吗？”
“听着，”他说，“我已经象绅士一样表现了一个小时。从现在起，我要表现得象个女士。”
