策略指导 觅捷径
No.2 读文总策略 破解阅读
理解必备3大策略
策略一 运用4大记忆方法,学会扩充词汇
技法1 利用词缀记单词
英语词缀分为前缀和后缀两种。加于词根前的叫前缀; 加于词根后的叫后缀。一般说来, 前缀只是改变词义, 并不改变词性; 后缀不仅可以改变词义, 还可以改变词性。

词尾加 -ly friend→friendly, week→weekly, love→lovely
词尾加 -en wood→wooden, gold→golden
技法2 利用易错比较记单词
有些单词的相似度很高, 给考生的记忆带来了很大的困难。通过比较这些易错词汇, 对单词的记忆会起到事半功倍的效果。
1.词义易错位, 如: imaginative(富于想象力的); imaginary (虚构的)。
2.加前缀、后缀之后, 意义不同, 如: like(喜欢; 像);dislike(不喜欢); unlike(不像); likely(可能的)。
3.貌似前后缀, 但并无 “血缘关系”, 如: whether(是否)与weather(天气); aboard(上船、飞机等)与abroad(在国外)。
技法3 利用熟词生义记单词
有些单词的某些词义比较常用, 而其他词义则比较生僻, 虽然这些词在教材中出现过, 但没有给出全部的汉语意思。在高考试卷中, 考生往往会遇到有些单词貌似熟悉, 但在阅读文章时却搞不清它们的意思的情况, 这就是熟词生义现象。
单词及常见义 生僻义 例句
shot n.射击; 射门 n.少量烈酒 (2021·新高考Ⅰ卷, A) Staff members hold plenty of bar events for guests like free shots...
工作人员为客人们举办大量的酒吧活动, 如免费烈酒……
pour v.倾倒; (雨)倾盆而下 v.不断涌向(或涌现) (2021·全国乙卷, A)People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece.
从古希腊时代起, 人们就开始涌入体育场。
技法4 通过阅读记忆词汇
新课程标准的要求很明确, 大量阅读、深度阅读、反复阅读是提高词汇量的重要手段。通过大量阅读, 我们能够在实际的语境中不断学习新词汇; 通过深度阅读, 我们能够掌握新词汇的正确表达方式; 通过反复阅读, 我们能够巩固学习过的词汇与其表达方式, 达到 “温故知新” 的目的。
在阅读时, 对于生词一般有如下两种处理方式:
1.不影响阅读的词汇——跳过去
在阅读中遇到生词时, 不妨先问自己一个问题——这些生词有没有进行精确猜测的必要。高考试题中经常会出现一些生词, 即使不知道它们的精确含义也不会影响对基本句意的理解。对于这类词, 不要耗费过多精力, 尽管放心大胆地 “跳过去”。
2.影响阅读的词汇——猜出来
有时候, 一些生词(包括已经暂时遗忘的已经学过的单词)对阅读来说存在很大的障碍, 会影响我们对上下文的理解, 这时我们就必须弄清楚这些词的精确含义。对于这类词, 需要运用阅读技巧尽力 “猜出来”。
策略二 运用4招技法, 破解长难句
技法1 据谓语, 找主干
一般情况下, 一个谓语形式的动词会有对应其动作的发出者(主语), 我们可以根据谓语动词来确定主语。而且, 如果一个句子中出现两个或两个以上的谓语动词, 则该句可能是并列句或复合句(并列谓语动词的情况除外)。例如:
【典例印证1】(2021·新高考Ⅰ卷, D) The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being.
技法剖析
找谓语: 分析句子成分可知, 本句的主干句为 The most positive aspect is a new and much needed emphasis on emotion; 谓语为 is。
找主语: 由谓语is可知, 主语为The most positive aspect。
析成分: 此句为主系表结构。主语的中心词为 aspect; 谓语为is; 表语为a new and much needed emphasis on emotion; by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being是介词短语做状语。
句意: 这种普及的最积极的方面是雇主、教育工作者和其他对促进社会福利感兴趣的人在情感方面有一个全新的和迫切需要的重视。
【典例印证2】(2020·新高考Ⅰ卷, B) After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education.
技法剖析
找谓语: 分析句子成分可知, 本句为一个主从复合句。主句为Jennifer attended a local technical college; 从句为because there was ...education, because引导的是原因状语从句。主句谓语为attended; because引导的从句的谓语为was。
找主语: 由主句谓语attended可知, 主句主语为Jennifer; 从句为一个there be句式, 是一个完全倒装句, 因此主语在后面。
析成分: After high school为时间状语; working to pay...为非谓语动词短语做状语修饰主句; because引导的从句中, set aside for a college education是动词-ed形式短语做定语修饰money。
句意: 高中毕业后, Jennifer去了当地的一家技术学院上学, (同时)打工挣钱交学费, 因为没有多余的钱用于大学教育。
技法2 提主干, 去枝叶
一般情况下, 一个结构复杂的句子中主句所表达的信息为主要信息, 从句、状语和定语等所表达的信息为次要信息。若句子的主干提炼不出来, 就不能完全把握句子的核心意思, 从而导致思维混乱、主次不分。因此, 提炼句子主干是把握句子核心意思的关键。例如:
【典例印证1】(2021·新高考Ⅰ卷, C) About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System—a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come.
技法剖析
提主干: 句子主干为 About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund。
去枝叶: 句中的不定式to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System做目的状语。that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come为同位语从句。
句意: 每枚鸭票中约98分直接进入候鸟保护基金, 用于购买湿地和野生动物栖息地, 纳入国家野生动物保护区系统——这确保了这片土地将得到保护,造福给子孙后代。
【典例印证2】(2021·全国乙卷, B) That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
技法剖析
提主干: 句子主干为 the only people are our Baby Boomers parents。
去枝叶: 第一个who 引导定语从句修饰主语 the only people; where... the phone 是由 where 引导的定语从句, 修饰point, 此定语从句中又包含由who 引导的宾语从句(who is calling), 做guess 的宾语。
句意: 话虽如此, 老实说, 唯一给我们家里座机打电话的人是生育高峰期出生的父母们, 以至于我们把接电话前猜是谁打来的当成了一种游戏(使用来电显示会失去这种乐趣)。
技法3 寻关联, 辨逻辑
一些长句其实是由若干分句组成的并列句或复合句, 而这些并列句或复合句之间需要一些关联词来连接。如果我们找准这些关联词, 就能够弄清楚句与句之间的逻辑关系, 弄清楚主句的意义和各从句的意义, 这样长句就容易理解了。要掌握此方法必须对英语中常见的关联词熟记于心。例如:
【典例印证1】(2021·新高考Ⅰ卷, D) Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion.
技法剖析
提主干: 句子主干为 we hope that...。
寻关联, 辨逻辑: 此句为复合句, Although引导的是让步状语从句。主句we hope that...中的that引导的是宾语从句。
句意: 尽管情商持续受到大众的青睐是可取的, 但我们希望这种关注将激发人们对情感的科学和学术研究的更大兴趣。
【典例印证2】(2021·全国乙卷, B) Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket —19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies.
技法剖析
提主干: 句子主干为a third concede...。
寻关联, 辨逻辑: Of those Australians who still have a landline 为表示范围的状语, 其中包含一个 who 引导的定语从句, 修饰先行词 Australians; that 引导宾语从句; 破折号后的内容 19 percent say they never use it... emergencies 是对前面内容的进一步解释说明, 里面的while 是转折连词, 意为 “而”, 用于对比其前后两句的内容。
句意: 在那些仍然拥有座机的澳大利亚人中, 有三分之一承认这其实不是必需的, 他们将其作为一种安全保障——19%的人说他们从不使用座机, 另有13%的人保留座机以防有紧急情况。
技法4 看搭配, 防分隔
有时一个长句或难句是由一个或多个结构搭配构成的, 并且这些搭配中常常出现分隔现象。考生若受分隔现象的干扰而看不清句子的“本来面目”, 那么对句意的理解就会发生偏差, 因此要明辨句中的搭配。例如:
【典例印证1】(2021·新高考Ⅰ卷, C) The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling, a political cartoonist from Des Moines, Iowa, who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey.
技法剖析
提主干: 本句主干为 The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling。
寻关联, 辨逻辑: who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey为定语从句。
看搭配, 防分隔: a political cartoonist from Des Moines , Iowa是J.N. “Ding” Darling的同位语。
句意: 第一枚联邦鸭票是由J.N.“Ding” Darling设计的, 他是一位来自艾奥瓦州得梅因的政治漫画家, 他当时被富兰克林·罗斯福总统任命为生物调查局局长。
【典例印证2】(2020·全国Ⅰ卷, 完形填空) Then when they come to other doors in life, be they real or metaphorical, they won’t hesitate to open them and walk through.
技法剖析
提主干: 本句主干为 they won’t hesitate to open them and walk through。
寻关联, 辨逻辑: when they come to other doors in life为时间状语从句。
看搭配, 防分隔: be they real or metaphorical为插入语, 对other doors进行补充说明; be they real or metaphorical 是一个倒装句, 结构为“be+主语+A or B”, 意为 “无论主语是A还是B”。
句意: 然后, 当他们在人生中遇到其他门时, 无论是真实的还是隐喻性的, 他们都会毫不犹豫地打开它们并且走进去。
策略三 掌握4步解题流程,提升读文速度
【典例印证】
(2020·全国Ⅲ卷, C)
With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独), more families are choosing to live together.
The doorway to peace and quiet, for Nick Bright at least, leads straight to his mother-in-law: she lives on the ground floor, while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.
Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol—one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof. They share a front door and a washing machine, but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.
“We floated the idea to my mum of sharing a house,”says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts in:“We spoke more with Nick because I think it’s a big thing for Nick to live with his mother-in-law.”
And what does Nick think “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it Yes, I think I would.”
It’s hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001 to 419,000 in 2013.
Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common. Some people live with their elderly parents; many more adult children are returning to the family home, if they ever left. It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991. The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.
Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living is more firmly rooted. In India, particularly outside cities, young women are expected to move in with their husband’s family when they get married.
解题流程
第一步 细读首句, 预测主题
根据 “With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation, more families are choosing to live together.” 可知, 文章将围绕
“多代人住在一起” 这一话题展开。
第二步 速览全文, 了解大意
本文主要介绍了越来越多的英国家庭选择合住。
第三步 细审题干, 定位原文 1.Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol A.Nick. B.Rita. C.Kathryn.D.The daughters. 细节理解题 信息比对找关键。题干关键词: the ground floor 定位到文章第二、三段。关键信息: ①mother-in-law ②the ground floor 根据第二段的 “...his mother-in-law: she lives on the ground floor...” 以及第三段的最后一句 “...Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.” 可知, Rita Whitehead是Nick的岳母, 住在the ground floor。故选B项。
2.What is Nick’s attitude towards sharing the house with his mother-in-law A.Positive. B.Carefree. C.Tolerant. D.Unwilling. 观点态度题 推理判断得结果。题干关键词: attitude; sharing the house with his mother-in-law 定位到文章第五段。关键信息: ①very well ②Yes, I think I would 根据第五段“And what does Nick think ‘From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it Yes, I think I would.’” 可知, Nick同意和岳母住在一起, 并且很愿意推荐这一做法, 所以他的态度是积极乐观的。故选A项。
3.What is the author’s statement about multigenerational family based on A.Family traditions. B.Financial reports. C.Published statistics. D.Public opinions. 推理判断题 推理判断得结果。题干关键词: multigenerational family; based on 定位到文章第六、七段。关键信息: ①had risen from 325,000 in 2001 to 419,000 in 2013 ②20%...16% in 1991 根据第六段内容可知, 报告显示三代人在一起生活的家庭数量已从2001年的325,000增加到2013年的419,000。根据第七段内容可知, 25至34岁的年轻人中约20%与父母同住, 而1991年时为16%。英国所有多代家庭共居的总数约为180万。由这两段的介绍可知, 作者一直都是在用调查数据讲述家庭居住问题。故选C项。
4.What is the text mainly about A.Lifestyles in different countries. B.Conflicts between generations. C.A housing problem in Britain. D.A rising trend of living in the UK. 主旨大意题 速读全文寻主题。选项关键词比对: ①Lifestyles ②Conflicts ③A housing problem ④A rising trend 定位到文章第一段。文章主旨句: ... more families are choosing to live together 纵观全文, 文章主要介绍了英国年轻人与父母居住在一起的情况越来越多, 多代共居的家庭数量也日益增多。故选D项。文中并不是倾向于介绍生活方式, 也没有用太多笔墨去介绍其他国家, 可排除A项; 文中介绍了多代家庭居住的情况, 并没有说他们之间有很多冲突, 可排除B项; 文中没有说英国的住房问题, 可排除C项。
第四步 有的放矢, 核实答案
通过题干或选项的关键词, 在文中找到题目的信息区间, 仔细比对, 再次检验答案。

Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转) and translate shapes,”Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than the parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.

If you think of the jobs that robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top of the list. But are we underestimating(低估) what robots can do
In some cases, they already do better than doctors at diagnosing illness. Also, some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education
British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. He even has a date for the robot takeover of the classroom: 2027.He forecasts that robots will do the main job of disseminating knowledge and teachers will be like helpers. Intelligent robots will read students’ faces, movements and even brain signals. Then they will pass the information on to each student in the way he or she can understand.
However, it’s not a popular opinion. Most people think it’s impossible that robots will have the ability to really connect with humans like another human can.
One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world, there aren’t enough teachers and 9%-16% of children under the age of 14 don’t go to school. That problem could be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere.
Being a teacher is a difficult job and teachers often feel overworked. Perhaps the question is not “Will robots replace teachers ” but “How can robots help teachers ” Teachers spend a lot of time doing non-teaching work, including more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best.

When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl(水禽) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat(栖息地).
In 1934, with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act(Act), an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory(迁徙的) waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival. Under this Act, all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp. The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling, a political cartoonist from Des Moines, Iowa, who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System—a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come. Since 1934, better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat. Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.

Shortly after the purchase, he sent photos of the bowl to auction specialists, who identified it as an item of historical significance.

Why humans make and appreciate music is an evolutionary(进化的) mystery. Recently, David Schruth and his colleagues have a new explanation. They say the roots of human music can date back to the branches of trees more than 50 million years ago, when the first primates(灵长类) appeared. Early primates moved around forest by leaping(跳跃) from branch to branch.
Schruth argues that a primate that calls in a musical way is advertising that it has fine control over its vocal(发声的) muscles. This might have convinced other primates that the caller also had fine control over its body. His another research shows the species that leap the most tend to have more complicated calls, which the team jokingly named as “protomusic”.
Hagen, a worldwide famous scientist in this field, commented on the research: “I do see a continuity between human music and primate vocalisations.”
Hagen doesn’t think human music has a single, simple explanation. He argues that human ancestors originally used music-like vocalisations in two ways: groups vocalised together to send a signal of strength and unity to scare outsiders away, and mothers used vocalisations to communicate with babies. Also another idea: humans used music to strengthen social bonds.
All these ideas might be compatible, says Hagen. Protomusic could have evolved in primates both to attract companions and for territorial signalling. Later, as early humans began cooperating in large numbers, protomusic might have been repurposed so it could attract rather than frighten outsiders, while also strengthening social bonds within groups.
What’s the best title of the text
A.Repurposed functions of music
B.Arguments on primates’ evolution
C.Origins of music linked to leaping
D.Discoveries about the human origins
答案 C

When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl (水禽) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat(栖息地).
