英语高考标题类阅读

『壹』 高考英语阅读理解题

英语的阅读理解题在考试里占据着半壁江山。下面是我网络整理的高考英语阅读理解题以供大家学习。

高考英语阅读理解题(一)

Most rain forests lie close to the equator(赤道), where the climate is often mild and there are long hours of sunshine. The warmth of the land heats the air above, causing it to rise and tiny drops of water to fall as rain. The rainfall can reach at least 98 inches a year. This wet, warm world with plenty of sunlight is perfect for plants to grow, so the trees grow fast with green leaves all the year round. The trees themselves also have an effect on the climate. They gather water from the soil and pass it out into the air through their leaves. The wet air then forms clouds, which hang over the treetops like smoke. These clouds protect the forest from the daytime heat and night-time cold of nearby deserts, keeping temperatures fit for plant growth.

Rain forests slightly farther away from the equator remain just as warm, but they have a dry season of three months or more when little rain falls. Tree leaves fall ring this dry season and new leaves grow when the wet season or monsoon(雨季) begins. Thus these areas are known as the "monsoon forest".

Another type of rain forest grows on tropical mountains. It is often called the "cloud forest" because clouds often hang over the trees like fog.

The rain forest is the ideal place for the growth of many different trees. Most of them depend on animals to eat their fruits and spread their seeds. When the fruits are eaten, the seeds inside them go undamaged through animals' stomachs and are passed out in their droppings. The seeds lying on the forest floor then grow into new trees.

64. The climate of the rain forests near the equator is ______.

A. mild, wet and windy B. hot, rainy and foggy C. hot, wet and cloudy D. warm, wet and sunny

65. We can learn from the passage that ______.

A. tree leaves are green all the time in the monsoon forest

B. there is a dry season in the cloud forest on tropical mountains

C. clouds help the plants in the rain forests near the deserts to grow

D. the formation of climate in the rain forest has little to do with the trees

66. According to the passage, ______ play the most important role in the spreading of seeds.

A. animals B. droppings C. fruits D. winds

67. This passage is most likely to be found in _______.

A. a travel guide B. a story book C. a technical report D. a geographical book

高考英语阅读理解题(二)

Danielle Steel, America's sweetheart, is one of the hardest working women in the book business. Unlike other proctive authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. Her research time before writing takes at least three years. Once she has fully studied her subjects, ready to dive into a book, she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk.

Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her ecation. After graation, she worked in the public relations and advertising instries.

『贰』 关于高考英语阅读理解题的应考技巧

■策略一、紧扣主旨大意

高考英语阅读理解的主旨大意题主要是考查考生在理解全文的基础上运用概括、判断、归纳、推理等逻辑思维的方法对文章进行高度的概括或总结的能力。常见的设问方式有：

●标题类：what'sthebesttitle/headlinefor

thepassage？

●大意类：thetextismainlyabout__.the

topic/_.fromthepassage，wecanconcludethat_.

inwritingthepassage？

针对主旨大意类型的题，考生可以掌握以下解题策略：把握文章逻辑结构，快速找出主题；寻找主题句，确定文章中心思想；将首段中心句和各段第一句话连接成一个整体，得出文章主题；逆向思维法解标题类问题。

一、把握文章逻辑结构，快速找出主题

高考阅读理解文章的主要逻辑结构：

1、时间顺序。按时间先后顺序说明某一事件、某一理论的发展过程，属于这种结构的文章主题通常在首段或末段。

2、“总说-分述”结构。首段做总的说明，其他段落分别说明或具体论述首段的观点，属于这种结构的文章主题在首段。最典型的是新闻报道类文章，此类体裁的文章在近年高考阅读中逐渐增多。一般这类文章都有固定格式：城市名称(新闻社)———新闻内容。掌握一些国际知名新闻社的英文名称是必要的，路透社reuters，美联社associatedpress，法新社agencefrancepresse。梁世

3、“分述-总说”结构。前面几段分别说明，末段总结。属于这种结构的文章主题在末段。

二、寻找主题句，确定文章中心思想

不是所有的文章都有主题句，对于大部分有主题句的文章来说，主题句表达了文章的中心思想，找到了主题句，也就抓住了文章的主旨大意。主题句呈现的形式有：

1、在文首。文章开门见山，提出主题，随后摆事实、讲道理来解释、支撑和发展主题句所表达的主题思想。2、在文带渣缓中。通常前面只提出问题，随之陈述细节引出主题，而后做进一步的解释、支撑或发展。3、在文尾。在表述细节后，归纳要点，得出结论，以概括主题。

三、将首段中心句和各段第一句话连接成一个整体，得出文章主题

通常有些文章会在首段提出一个重要论点，随后在各段分别进一步从不同角度继续阐述，这样我们可以找出首段的中心句，再将其和各段第蠢模一句串联在一起，就可以得出文章的中心思想。如：(2006北京卷d篇71题)

？

a.

b.-ment

c.

d.

第一段：

infantdeathcaused，motherandchild.

第二段：oneofthesepremodernattach-ment-



intothesecondyear.…

第三段：athirdpracticewhichhadthe

samedistancingeffectwaswet-nursing.…

从第一段的中心句和各段的第一句不难看出，这篇文章的标题应该是ment.

四、逆向思维法解标题类问题

(2005全国i卷b篇62题)whatwould

bethebesttitleforthetext？

a.across-countrytripb.aspecialbor-derpassc.anunguardedborderd.anexpensivechurchvisit

如果标题是across-countrytrip，那么文章应该讲述一次出境旅行；如果标题是aspecialborderpass，那么文章应该着重讲一个特殊的边境通行证；如果标题是anunguardedborder，那么文章应该侧重讲边境如何不设防；如果标题是anexpensivechurchvisit，那么文章应该讲一次礼拜如何花费昂贵了。经过这样的逆向思维，我们不难发现文章的内容恰好与标题anexpensivechurch

visit一致，因此应该选d。

一、对于写作意图的把握

1.注意连接词的使用：，mydad

tookmetothewildliferefuge.heneeded

-iment.atfirst，.whatifonetriedtoeatme？butwehadalotofhelp，and

mydadknewalotaboutalligators，soitwasok.

first，but，so等展开的。所设题目是：

？

a.

fiercealligatorsb.

c..

某些句型表面看上去是比较级，而实际上是最高级含义。mymotherdeci-dedtotakemeonthetrip.itcouldn'tbebetter.(itcouldn'tbebetter=it'sgreat.意为“太好了”)

注意虚拟语气的使用。.(我多么希望已通过了驾照考试呀！)此句暗含的事实是：并没通过考试。

3.将自己想象为故事中的主人公，体会其心理感受

有一篇文章，写一个老太太刚刚在海边买了一座别墅，打算在那里度过余生。因为那里的气候湿润温暖，更适合她的健康。此时她站在曾经生活了25年的房子里，最后环顾这曾经装载了她的大半生的房子。所给的问题是：？正确答案是：herfeelingiscomplex.其他的选项如sheishappy/she

issad等都片面。只要我们设身处地站在老太太的位置上想一想，就不难找到正确答案。

4.把握全篇文脉，仔细揣摩事情发生的背景

我们不仅要掌握一定的语言知识，还需要平时储备一定的逻辑推理能力以及必要的西方的文化背景知识，才能完全领会文章的主旨或者其所渗透出的幽默感。请看下面这篇介绍父子关系的文章。第一句话就开门见山：myfatherandiwereveryclose.hewasalwaysproudofmysuccess.然后用一个事例说明：ifiwonaspelingcontestatschool，hewasontopoftheworld.如果知道beontopoftheworld是“高兴至极”的意思，也只是理解了语言的表层含义。接下来：wheniwasnamedpresidentofthe

fordmotorcompany，ididn'tknowwhichofuswasmoreexcited.正确理解了上文的铺垫，才会真正领会此句暗含的意味及幽默：实际上父亲比我还高兴。如果对西方人的生活方式及习惯比较了解的话，也不难接受下面的句子：-

tunity———.我们再来继续欣赏一下父亲鲜明的个性：.-torcycle.unfortunately，myfatherandhis

motorcycledidn'tgetalongtoowell.he

.asaresult，.读懂了这些，就不难理

解下文中为什么父亲不让“我”拥有一辆自行车，反而当“我”刚满16岁就让我开车了。正确理解了文章的来龙去脉及内涵，对于文后题目的处理也就会轻而易举了。

二、对于出题意图的把握

1.正确理解一个事物的两个方面

有些题目不是直接照搬原文的话，而是用一些另外的语言表达出同样的意思，因此我们必须掌握用英文解释英文的技能。如一篇介绍辍学学生的文章，文章先后两次谈到学生辍学后的感想。第一次：

theymadeamistakebygivingupand

.

第二次：.文后的题目是whichof

-age？正确答案是：.虽然

原文没有像题目这样明确说明，但其实这是一个事物的两个方面；对于辍学的后悔其实就是希望继续上学。通过正确推断这些文句的含义，即可找出正确答案。

2.以文章内容为基础进行判断

■策略三、合理推理判断

一、理解定义。判断是对已知的事实仔细评价之后做出的合理决定。推理是对事实的内涵所做的陈述或以事实为依据对未知所做的陈述。注意无论是判断还是推理都是以已知事实为依据。

二、推理题常见的提问形式。常以infer，

imply，indicate，suggest，conclude，learn，in-

tend，mean，describe，purpose等词提问。

或含有表推测的情态动词，如can，could，might，would等和其他表示可能性的动词，如probably，mostlikely等。

三、具体策略

1.通过辨认细节的技巧，找到相关的事实或证据，对这些事实或证据进行分析和评价，在此基础上再作决定。切记：推断是以文章提供的事实为依据，而不是凭空想象，更不是读者自己的意愿。

2.借助常识。在推理判断题中，我们平时积累的一些常识通常会派上用场。2006年陕西高考英语试卷中一篇关于通信发展史的阅读最为典型。a.

faster.b.slower.大家都应知道交通越来越发达，邮电业当然是faster.此篇还涉及到有关发邮件的常识，如果同学们有这个commonsense，就如鱼得水了。

3.务必要用排除法。排除法在此类题型中发挥着不可磨灭的作用。根据在文章中找到的事实依据和常识排除错误信息，再排除和文章中一词不差的信息(文章里的原句不会是推理判断出来的结果，但通过同义词或句型转换过的选项有可能是正确答案)，最后再排除无关或偏离信息，正确答案就不言而喻了。

4.词句段篇，相互交融。词的理解要放在句子里，句子的理解要靠段，段的理解也离不开篇。单独说floor谁都知道是什么意思，但…，inherownhandwriting…这个语境里是surprised的意思。因此不能独立地看某个词或某句话。此外，学生对一词多义或一些习语的积累也是很有必要的，这就要靠同学们课下多下工夫了。

『叁』 英语阅读理解题中标题配对的解题指导

标题配对是英语阅读理解题中的重要题型之一，教师在备考复习时应注意下列要点。

一、 熟悉标题的语言特点

近几年高考英语阅读理解考查实践表明，标题配对常有下列几种句式。

1. 短语式

短语式标题可为单纯的名词短语，也可为带介词（表示范围）的名词或动名词短语，句式简洁，观点明确，立场分明。如：

Ireland, Past and Present(2011年安徽卷)

Weakness and Kindness(2011年广东卷)

Banking on Gardening(2011年新课标全国卷)

2. 陈述句式

陈述句式标题为一个简短的陈述句，它可清晰表达作者的观点和写作目的。如：

Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archeologists warn(2011年上海卷)

TV Will Better the World(2010年福建卷)

3. 疑问句式

疑问句式标题可为一般疑问句、特殊疑问句，也可为反意疑问句，这种标题发人深省，劝告力度大。如：

Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper? (2011年江苏卷)

Why do I read?(2010年四川卷)

4. 问答式

问答式标题由简短的问句和答句所构成，问句常表示条件，答句常表示结果，观点逻辑性强，劝诫力度大。如：

Need speed? Slow down. (2011年四川卷)

二、 了解标题的拟定原则

标题的拟定应遵循下列三个原则。

1. 高度的概括性

首先，标题必须用简短的文字反映文章的主题，对文章内容进行高度的浓缩，这样读者一看到标题就会对文章将要介绍的内容有一个大致了解，也就会带着期待性心理愉悦顺畅地阅读文章。

2. 强烈的针对性

虽然标题是对文章内容的高度概括，但也不能太过于笼统、抽象、泛化，而失去对文章具体内容的指向，否则即使看到标题读者也无法了解文章的主题和所要介绍的大致内容，这样阅读文章就失去了方向感、成功感和满足感。

3. 一定的醒目性

任何标题都是为了吸引读者，因此其必须精彩亮丽，具有一定的醒目性。这样的标题或短小精悍、言简意赅，或句式对称、丰满挺拔，或新颖时尚、情感动人，充满美感，醒人眼目。当然，标题也不应一味求醒目性而忽视高度的概括性和强烈的针对性，醒目性应服从于概括性和针对性，这是一个十分重要的原则。

三、 掌握标题的配对方法

既然标题是用精彩简短的语言反映文章的主题，因此寻找关键信息提炼主题是解题的关键。实践表明，主题信息常常在文章的下列位置出现。

1. 在文章首句出现

首句是文章最先展现在读者面前的具体内容，也常常是作者最想表达的观点，因此它最有可能成为文章主题。利用这一点常常可以快速寻找到主题信息，成功配对标题。必须注意的是，阅读首句时停留时间要长，阅读次数要多，思考的深度应深，这样就不会因疏忽大意而错过在刚开始阅读文章时就捕捉住主题信息并成功提炼出主题的机会。

例1：【原文】Human remains of ancient settle?鄄ments will be reburied and lost to science under a law that threatens research into the history of humans in Britain, a group of leading archeologists(考古学家) says. In a letter addressed to the justice secretary, Ken Clarke, 40 archeologists write of their “deep and widespread concern” about the issue. It centers on the law introced by the Ministry of Justice in 2008 which requires all human remains unearthed in England and Wales to be reburied within two years, regardless of their age. The decision means scientists have too little time to study bones and other human remains of national and cultural significance. (2011年上海卷阅读理解C篇首节)

【试题】Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. New discoveries should be reburied, the government demands.

B. Research time should be extended, scientists require.

C. Law on human remains needs thorough discussion, authorities say.

D. Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archeologists warn.

分析：答案为D。认真阅读分析原文第一节不难发现，首句“Human remains of ancient settlements will be reburied and lost to science under a law that threatens research into the history of humans in Britain, a group of leading archeologists says”为主题信息，对其加以提炼不难得出D为答案。这是一个陈述式句标题，用朴素的语言清楚表明了作者的观点。

2. 在文章首节其他内容中出现

不少情况下作者在亮明自己观点之前需要先过渡一下，或先推出多个画面、举出特定例子然后亮明自己的观点，或先介绍错误观点然后道出正确观点。显然，首节其他内容尤其末句也很有可能成为主题信息，阅读时应仔细认真，弄清哪一个句子是作者真正想表达的观点，是其与读者真正想分享的内容。

例2：【原文】In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.(2011年广东卷阅读理解A篇首节)

【试题】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. A Wheelchair Experience.

B. Weakness and Kindness.

C. Weakness and Strength.

D. A Driving Experience.

分析：答案为B。认真阅读分析原文不难发现，首节第三句“But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people”为主题信息，表明作者认为弱者的存在可以导致强者的善良，简洁一下文字不难得出B为答案。这是一个短语式标题，用最简洁的文字揭示了弱者与善良之间的关系。

例3：【原文】We know the famous ones―the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells―but what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)? Shouldn’t we know who they are?(2011年江苏卷阅读理解A篇首节)

【试题】Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?

A. How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Procers?

B. How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window?

C. Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?

D. Shouldn’t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?

分析：答案为C。认真阅读分析原文首节不难发现，末句“Shouldn’t we know who they are?”为主题信息，追踪句中they的指代不难发现C为答案。这是一个反意疑问句式标题，观点强烈，语气坚定，劝告力度大。

3. 在文章末节出现

还有一些时候，作者先不直接亮明自己的观点，而用具体例子或详细论证来展开文意，直到文章快要结束时才表明自己的观点，道出自己的写作目的。因此文章末节也有可能包含文章主题信息。阅读文章时如果不能在首节确定主题不要着急，应耐心阅读下文尤其末节，只有这样才能成功获取主题信息，配对标题。

例4：【原文】Strategic speed serves as a kind of leadership. Teams that regularly take time to get things right, rather than plough ahead full bore, are more successful in meeting their business goals. That kind of strategy must come from the top.(2011年四川卷阅读理解E篇末节)

【试题】Which could be the best title for the text?

A. Improve quality? Serve better.

B. Deliver value? Plough ahead.

C. Rece time? Move faster.

D. Need speed? Slow down.

分析：答案为D。认真阅读分析原文末节不难发现，“Teams that regularly take time to get things right, rather than plough ahead full bore, are more successful in meeting their business goals”含主题信息：商家不能不顾一切强调生产速度，造成产品质量下降，而应该定期花时间进行调整。精简一下语言不难得出D为答案。这是一个问答式标题，清楚地表达了“欲速则不达，想快就要慢”的道理，哲理性强，说服力强。

需要说明的是，有时文章也可能没有明确的主题信息，而需要考生读完文章后进行概括和总结。此时不能着急，而应沉着冷静地思考作者想表达的是什么观点，其在赞扬什么，批评什么，从而准确概括出文章主题。有时文章每一段的段首有一个段落主题句，抓住这些段落主题句并联系起来思考一下，可以快速高效地概括文章内容，提炼文章主题。限于篇幅，这里不再赘述。

『肆』 英语阅读选标题技巧方法

英语阅读选标题技巧方法

小标题选择也是近年来考研英语中出现的新题型之一。下面是我为大家整理的英语阅读选标题技巧方法，欢迎参考~

解题步骤

1、阅读题目要求，确定文章主题。很多考生都会忽略这一步，但这恰恰是让你在最短时间内了解文章内容的重要方法;

2、通读短文，了解各段落内容并作简单概括，留意该段核心词汇(围绕什么展开叙述)、首尾句等;

3、阅读小标题，将小标题和段落进行匹配;

4、参看全文，对答案进行检验，看是否存在段落与标题不够匹配的情况。

解题技巧

小标题的解题技巧主要集中在段落和小标题关联性的比对上：

1、关注段落首句、第二句，看是否有没有关键词和短语和待选小标题的词相同，若有，列为重点，再进一步比对详细内容;

2、快速扫视段落，有无某词或事物反复提到多次，再看该词或该事物是否有在小标题中出现，若有，则列为重点，再进一步比对详细内容;

3、若前面两项都没有，则回到段落首末句，看看小标题中出现了首末句重点词的同义替换表达，若有，则该项就是答案。

总的来说，小标题中一般包含对某一段落核心内容的再现，只是再现的方式不同，一般包括原词再现、同义词再现、词义再现三种形式，第一种在解题过程中很容易就能看出，后两种则需要细心比对。

拓展：高考英语阅读七选五的技巧

技巧一：从细节逻辑上判断---因果关系

在做题时最重要的是要读懂空白前后的句子，明白这几句话的确切意思，然后根据意思的连贯性或逻辑性从选项中选取正确答案。在读懂意思的基础上，判断它们之间的关系来进一步确认答案。

因果关系主要指前后的句子有着原因和结果之间的关系，这种关系往往说明了前因后果或者前果后因等情况。表示因果关系的连词有as a result结果，thus/therefore因此，so (such)...如此------以至于等。

技巧二：从细节逻辑上判断---转折关系

转折关系主要指英语行文中后句对前句构成逆转逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的逆转，则空格处很有可能是个转折逻辑的句子。

表示转折关系的连接词有：However然而, nevertheless仍然，然而，不过, nonetheless尽管如此，依然，然而, still还;然而, though可是，不过，然而, yet然而, in spite of不顾，不管, at any rate无论如何，至少, in any case无论如何，不管怎样, whoever无论是谁, whatever无论什么，on the contrary正相反, in contrast与此相反, 相比之下, by contrast相反, 相比之下, in comparison比较起来，比较地, by comparison相比之下, conversely相反(地), otherwise否则;除此以外，not---but不是-----而是，as well也等。

技巧三：从细节逻辑上判断---例证关系

前后句的某句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。例证的形式多样，但就其本质而言无非是思维上的形象(例子、类比等)和抽象(观点)的辩证关系，用到的思维过程无非就是基本的归纳(从例子到观点)和推理(从观点到例子)。

技巧四：从细节逻辑上判断---递进关系

递进关系主要指英语行文中后句对前句是一种顺承逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的层进关系，则空格处很有可能是个递进的句子。

表示递进关系的连词有：also也, 而且, further另外(的);, furthermore而且，此外, likewise同样地，照样地;也，又, similarly相似地，类似地, moreover而且再者，此外, in addition另外，加之, what’s more更重要的是, too也，还, either也, neither两者都不, not only…but also不但…而且等。

技巧五：从细节逻辑上判断---平列关系

表示列举关系的有：first首先, 第一, second第二, third第三…; firstly第一, 首先, secondly第二(点);其次, thirdly第三…; first第一, next其次, then那么, 然后…; in the first place第一，首先, in the second place第二, 其次…; for one thing首先，一则, for another thing其次…; to begin with首先，第一, to conclude首先，第一等

技巧六：从词汇线索上判断---代词

英语表达中的代词出现的频率极高，代词的作用是指代前面提及的名词或形容词概念，巧妙利用这样的`指代关系和根据代词的单复数差异可以准确而快速地解题。

技巧七：从词汇线索上判断---同义词/近义词

英语前言后语之间往往有同义词、近义词、近义表达语甚至相同词汇的重复使用，这是我们解题的一个很好的判断线索。其实就其本质而言，上文讲的代词和下文将涉及的上下义词和同一范畴词都是特殊的同义/近义词。

技巧八：从词汇线索上判断---上下义词/同一范畴词

上下义词和同一范畴词就是前者包含了后者，或可以说后者是前者的一个子集。利用前后句中这样的特殊的同义关系常常可以很轻松地解题。

技巧九：从试题位置上判断---问题在段首

假如问题出现在段首，它通常是段落主题句。认真阅读后文内容，根据段落一致性原则，查找同义词或其他相关的词，推断出主题句。

另外着重阅读后文第一两句，锁定线索信号词，然后在选项中查找相关特征词。

通常正确答案的最后一句与空白后的第一句在意思上是紧密衔接的，因此这两句间会有某种的衔接手段，尤其当选项是几句话时。

技巧十：从试题位置上判断---问题在段尾

所选答案是引出下一段的内容。如果在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联，此时可考虑与下一段开头是否有一定的衔接。认真阅读下一段开头几句，看是否与选项的最后一句紧密连接起来。

分析与前文是转折或是对比关系。此时要注意在选项中查找表示转折、对比的关联词，同时注意选项中所讲内容是否与前文在同一主题上形成对立、对比关系。

如果第一段的段尾是空白，要认真阅读，看此处是细节还是主题。通常文章第一段要提出文章的主题，如果在段尾提出主题，会用一些信号词如转折词引出来，正确答案中应有这样的特征词。

高考英语阅读理解的命题规律及解题方法

高考英语的学习不仅需要知识的积累与运用，同时也需要掌握一定的技巧和方法，为了帮助准高三考生进行高考英语复习备考，我为大家整理了高考英语阅读理解的命题规律以及解题方法，一起来看一下吧!

【高考英语阅读理解的命题规律及解题方法】

一、命题规律

此题型以说明文居多，有少数的记叙文和议论文，短文词数300-350，正文词数210-270左右，选项词数60-80左右。短文结构长为：提出问题——解决问题。文中有五处空白，要求学生根据文章结构和内容给出的七个选项中选出五个能填入文章空白处的最佳选项。设空类型一般有标题句类、中心句类以及上下文衔接句类。总体来说，实体的难度比常规阅读理解试题有所降低，突出考查学生的逻辑思维能力。

二、答题思路及注意事项

1、观察文章中的设题及选项特点来确定不同的解题策略

在做阅读理解七选五前，先迅速浏览文中五个空的设置特点，如果设空处在主题或者标题的位置，答案一般会是那些短小精悍的短语或祈使句，此时学生需要根据整个段落的内容并结合选项来把握正确答案。如果设空处在段首，且十个完整的句子，一般来说是段落中心句，这就需要学生认真阅读后文内容，根据段落一致性原则，查找同义词或其他相关的词，推断出中心句。如果设空处是段落间的过渡句，这时要“瞻前顾后”找提示，即阅读上一段结尾部分(通常正确答案可与上一段结尾有效连接起来)，并结合下一段内容，看所有答案是否将两段内容连贯起来。如果空设在段中，则要根据上下文的逻辑关系来观察选项，如果空设在短尾，那么空白处的前一句或前两句是重点，注意锁定关键词，这时选项应该是总结性语句，选项中常会出现therefore，as a result，thus，in short，in a word这样的词语。

2、辨别语境线索，根据题的设空特点来选择不同的解题方法

学生在做该题型时，可以边读边做题，重点阅读设空处前后的句子，圈定线索词，然后从选项中寻找相关的特征词，以确定答案。做题时可以采用带入排除法。如果遇到做不出或拿不准答案的题目，可以跳过空格，先做容易的题，直到读完整篇文章。至此，文章的要点和主旨，各个段落之间的逻辑关系就基本清楚了。这时，再将多余的选项放入空白处，看看是否与上下文构成语义和逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合语境，是否能承接前后的写作线索。不同的设空特点选择不同的解题办法，逐一选定，逐一排除。

3、初步确定答案后，放入文中进行复查

在初步选定答案后，学生应该通读全文，检查文中内容是否完整，语言是否连贯合理，各段落内容是否紧扣主题，语篇结构是否合乎逻辑，从而判断选择的答案是否正确。同时，学生应学会将相近的选项进行对比分析。由于个别干扰项对于某个正确选项的内容具有很强的干扰性，这就需要学生认真分析，仔细甄别，排除干扰，从而得出正确答案，答题时学生一定要清楚文章的主旨或写作意图，不要参杂个人观点，想当然的盲目选择。

三、解题技巧

1、词汇复现法

复现，是保证文章前后衔接而经常使用的一种写作手段，即作者在上下文的不同位置会对同一个概念进行重复性的描述。复现关系，主要是同义词复现，近义词复现，反义词复现等。但是单纯地从复现上找答案也会影响准确性，因为不同的选项会多次出现同一词汇，所以学生需要注意和其他方法相结合。

2、词汇同现法

词汇同现是指属于同一词汇或者跟此词汇相关的同一领域的词汇在文中共同出现，达到语义衔接的目的。学生可以在选项中找到与此词汇最相近的词，从而达到快而准的.目的，图chooese和choice，think about与consider，concentrate on与put their heart into，cook与ingredient，express thoughts and ideas和communicate ideas等。一般来说，上下文词汇练习越接近，上下文的衔接关系越紧密。

3、代词或数次代入法

英语表达中代词出现的频率较高，代词的作用无非是指代表前面提及的名词或者形容词概念，如he/she，they，it，them，they等，巧妙利用这样的指代关系和单词的单复数差异就可以准确而迅速的解题。数次代入不是很多，但是有时候，作者在写文章时为了强调自己的观点，会列出一些数字，除了和其他数字进行对比和比较之外，学生可以用数据来说明一个观点。

4、逻辑关系法

由于英语的句子之间，段落之间经常会用一些关联词或者某些具有关联作用的副词来进行衔接或者过渡，使文章上下文逻辑更加清楚连贯，因此文章中表示逻辑关系的信号词在选择答案时非常关键的。在做题的时候，将不同的表示逻辑关系的词有效结合起来，如表示并列或者递进关系的词表示前后句子的名词或句意具有同指性，表示转折关系或让步关系的词往往表示句意对立或褒贬对立或肯定否定对立;表示例证关系的词则意味着在举例之前或之后有表述概念或某一观点没，在表例证的时候会出现for example，for instance，such as这样的词组。下面例举几种常用的关联词或词组：

(1)表示并列或递进关系的词：and，or，also，neither...，equally，in the same way，that is to say，as well as，besides，furthermore，moreover，in addition to，what‘s more等;

(2)表示因果关系的词：because，for，since，therefore，so，so...that...，consequently，accordingly，eto，thanks to，as a result，for this reason等;

(3)表示转折或让步关系的词：but，however，yet，on the contrary，by contray，by contrast，on the other hand，unfor-tunately，while，unlike，rather than，instead of，although，though，even if，nevertheless，despite，in spite of等;

(4)表示时间或者先后顺序的词：afterwards，at first，at last，finally，first，firstly，in the first place，second，secondly，to begin with等。

『陆』 高考英语阅读理解主旨大意题解题技巧

高考英语阅读理解主旨大意题解题技巧

导语：高考复习的重点一是要掌握所有的知识点，二就是要大量的做题，以下是我为大家精心整理的高考英语阅读理解主旨大意题解题技巧，欢迎大家参考！

阅读理解之主旨大意题

我们阅读一篇文章， 首先是要了解其大意， 明确其主旨。因此， 主旨大意题是常考题。主旨大意题包括：主要内容(main idea, mainly about)型、文章标题(title)型、写作目的(purpose)型。广东高考近几年来考查过的题目中mainly about只考过4题，title题考了5题， purpose题考了5题。

解题技巧

1.弄清文章的大意， 关键是找到主题句。

主题句的位置：主题句通常在文首、文末或首尾呼应， 有时也在文中，或没有主题句，需根据文章所述内容进行归纳。各段的主题句也常在该段的首句或尾句。议论文和说明文一般有主题句，但记叙文通常没有主题句，需要归纳。

2.找主题句的方法：用浏览法(skimming)，即

快速阅读文首、文尾，或每段的首句和尾句等，搜索主题线索和主题信息。找主题句的四个小窍门：

(1)段落中出现表转折的词语(如however, but, in fact, actually等)时， 该句很可能是主题句。

(2)首段出现疑问句时， 对该问题的回答很可能就是文章主旨。

(3)作者有意识地反复重复的观点，通常是主旨;反复出现的词语，一般为体现文章主旨的关键词。

(4)表示总结或结论的话常有therefore, thus, in short, conclude, conclusion等。

3.关于干扰项和正确答案。

(1)干扰项可能属文中某个具体事实或细节;可能属文中某些 (不完全的)事实或细节片面推出的错误结论;可能属非文章事实的主观臆断。

(2)正确答案：是根据文章意思全面理解而归纳概括出来的;但不能太笼统、言过其实或以偏概全。

4.在阅读理解中，主旨大意题常有以下几种命题方式： (1)Main idea型：选择项多为陈述句，要求考生选择表达作者思想或观点的.句子。题干多为如下形式：

①What's the main idea/point of the passage?

②The passage is mainly about________.

③The passage is mainly concerned about________.

④Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?

⑤Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea/theme of the passage?

⑥In this passage the author discusses primarily______.

⑦The subject discussed in this text is________.

⑧The general/main idea of the passage is about________.

(2)Main purpose型：选择项多为动宾结构，要求考生找到主要的写作目的，常见以下几种题干形式：

①What's the purpose of the passage?

②The passage is meant to________.

③The purpose of the article is to________.

④In this passage the writer tries to tell us that________.

⑤The passage tells us that________.

⑥The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to ...

(3)标题型：选择文章标题是另一类对主旨大意题考查的形式，命题形式：

①The best title of the passage is________.

②Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

③The best title for the passage is________.

④The most appropriate title of the passage is________.

In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animal. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.

典型例析

From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people...Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness...But only when we stop

pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them.

30.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A.A Wheelchair Experience.

B.Weakness and Kindness.

C.Weakness and Strength.

D.A Driving Experience

解析：主旨大意题。在第一段中，出现了表转折的But...可知，“But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people”便是主题句，再根据第二段最后一句可以确定，这句的确是主题句。又因标题要简明、醒目，故选B。

答案：B

In a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decade has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的)ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable

procts.In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.

Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries....In recent years the markets for sustainable procts have grown by more than 50%.

45.What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To introce a new business model.

B.To compare two business models.

C.To predict a change of the global market.

D.To advocate sustainable development.

解析：主旨大意题。在第一段中，出现了转折的Actually，其后的“People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed，and that we must be able to develop in sustainable(可持续的)ways”是主题句，随后的两句话都是对这一句进

行解释;句中两个must清楚表明了作者“提倡可持续发展”，第二段首句“Today，sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries”进一步说明，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是“提倡可持续发展”。故选D。

答案：D

Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it's nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don't care all that much. While the expression may not often

be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.

30.What is the best title of the passage?

A.Have a Nice Day — a Social Custom

B.Have a Nice Day — a Pleasant Gesture

C.Have a Nice Day — a Heartwarming Greeting

D.Have a Nice Day — a Polite Ending of a Conversation

解析：主旨大意题。由该段的第一句(特别是custom一词)可知。

答案：A

(2013年高考)Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear.Children know this very well. Fred Epstein，in his book If I Make It to Five，tells a story he heard from one of friends about Tom，a fouryearold boy with a cancer in his back bone.He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination

…

It doesn't mean that you should dress as a superhero for you next job interview. But，next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first. So，let your imagination run wild，and dare to dream.

30.What is the purpose of the passage?

A.To tell us an interesting story.

B.To help us make right decisions.

C.To advise us to care about children.

D.To encourage us to use our imagination.

解析：主旨大意题。由文章首句Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear和全文末句So, let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是鼓励我们运用我们的想象力。

答案：D

When you look at yourself in the mirror, do you ever wonder why you look the way you do? Do you also wonder what biological processes were at work to shape your face, which is as indivial and unique as a fingerprint?

The answer is in a little piece of your DNA called a gene enhancer(增强片段),according to scientists at Berkeley Lab. These little pieces6 of DNA help switch on or boost the expression of specific genes, that control the development of the face and head before birth. What's interesting about these little influential bits of DNA is that a gene enhancer doesn't have to be found anywhere close to the genes and, in some cases, doesn't even have to be located on the same chromosome.

Of course, there are a number of hereditary(遗传) factors which help determine appearance, for example, a child resembles a parent. The researchers, who outlined their findings in the journal Science, said the gene enhancer adjusts the genes to give your face its final unique look. Even with look similar but are not exactly the same in appearance.

"Our results suggest that there are thousands of enhancers in the human genome that are involved in facial development," said Axel Visel, a geneticist with Berkeley Lab's Genomics Division, who led the research. "We don't know yet what all of these enhancers do, but we do know that they are out there and they are important for facial development."

Scientists have previously been able to identify some of the genetic faults that can cause birth defects, such as a cleft lip(兔唇), but haven't been able to fully understand what genetic factors are responsible for subtle differences in appearance.

26. The author put forward two questions at the beginning of the passage to ________.

A. expect readers to answer them

B. carry out a survey among readers

C. start a discussion among readers

D. draw readers attention to the topic

27. From Paragraph 3, we know that________.

A. identical twins look similar but not exactly the same

B. hereditary factors determine our appearance completely

C. a child resembles a parent because of afterbirth factors

D. the gene enhancer is something useless and unimportant

28. The underlined word "subtle" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to"___________".

A. not a little

C. not small B. not a bit D. not obvious

29. According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?

A. A cleft lip is a kind of birth defects which are caused by genetic faults.

B. Genetic faults can not be identified and fully understood with today's technology.

C. Gene enhancers have something to do with the facial development according to the research

D. The relation between genetic factors and subtle differences in appearance remains a mystery.

30. Which part of a website is the passage probably taken from?

A. Culture.

C. Science.

B. Opinion. D. Business.

高考英语阅读理解试题【3】

Grown- ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.

In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star”and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.

The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood. The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.

1. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.

B. Children have a better memory than grown- ups

C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.

D. Stories for children are easy to remember. 2. The author explains the law of overlearning by.

A. presenting research findings

B. setting down general rules

C. making a comparison

D. using examples

3. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is

A. a result of overlearning

B. a special case of cramming

C. a skill to deal with math problems

D. a basic step towards advanced studies

4. What is the author’s opinion on cramming?

A. It leads to failure in college exams.

B. It’s helpful only in a limited way.

C. It’s possible to result in poor memory. D. It increases students’learning interest.

在阅读过程中，为了既迅速又准确地理解代章的含义，利用信号词预测非常重要。信号词可以揭示句子内在关系或代章各部分之间的关系。特别是在快速阅读时，它能帮助考生预测代章信息，提高阅读速度。

第一篇：

Today just as technology changed the face of instry, farms have experienced an “agricultural revolution”. On the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power.

One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how much livestock (家畜) to buy, when to sell their procts, and how much profit they can expect. Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers. Programs are being written for pig procers, grain farmers, potato farmers, and dairy farmers. In the future, farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs. Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm, students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future. While the old-time farm depended on horse power, and modern farms depend on machine power, farms of the future will depend on computer power.

Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot, a real “mechanized hired hand” that will be able to move and, in some ways, think like a human being. Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make shocking changes in farming before the end of the century. Unlike farmers of the present, farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear (修剪) sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the barn, then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. In addition, when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure. The complete change of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.

1. According to the passage, computers can not help farmers decide _______.

A. how much money they can earn from their procts

B. whether to plant a certain kind of crop

C. what livestock to raise

D. when to sell their procts

2. Which of the following statements is true?

A. Farmers in the future will depend totally on computers.

B. Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present.

第二篇：

History is full of cases where dreams have been a pathway to creativity and discovery. A striking example is provided by Dr. Otto Loewi, a pharmacologist (药理学家) and winner of a Nobel Prize. Loewi had spent years studying the chemical transmission of nerve impulses (脉搏). A tremendous breakthrough in his research came when he dreamed of an experiment three nights in a row. The first two nights he woke up and wrote down the experiment quickly and untidily on paper. But the next morning, he couldn’t tell what the notes meant. On the third night, he got up after having the dream. This time, instead of making notes he went straight to his laboratory and performed the important experiment. Loewi later said that if the experiment had occurred to him while awake he would have rejected it.

Loewi’s experiment gives some insight into using dreams to proce creative solutions. Nervous feelings are reced ring dreaming, which may be especially useful in solving problems that require a fresh point of view.

Being able to take advantage of dreams for solving is improved if you “set” yourself before retiring. Before you go to bed, try to think intently about a problem you wish to solve. Bury yourself in the problem by stating it clearly and reviewing all relevant information. Then use the suggestions listed in the previous section to catch your dreams. Although this method is not guaranteed to proce a novel solution or a new insight, it is certain to be an adventure. About half of a group of college students using the method for a week recalled a dream that helped them solve a personal problem.
