词义猜测题
技巧一:语境推断法
大部分的词义推断题都可以通过上下文语境推断出答案,考生可以根据上下文之间的并列关系、已知信息与生词的同义关系、反义关系等逻辑关系推断出生词的意思。
例题导读(2021年广东省卷B篇节选)

主旨大意题
第一步:定位主题句,弄懂文章中心思想
技巧一:开门见山
主题句出现在文首,这种结构主要是为了开门见山,先提出主题,然后围绕主题用细节来解释、论证或发展主题思想。
技巧二:藏头露尾
主题句出现在文尾,这种结构往往是先阐述细节,然后归纳要点,得出结论,概括主题。
技巧三:藏龙卧虎
主题句隐藏在全文中,没有明确的主题句。阅读这样的文章,要求考生根据文章的细节来分析、概括、推导出文章的主题。具体方法:明确各个段落的内容以及它们之间的逻辑关系,寻找核心词和高频词,加以归纳形成主题。
第二步:对比选项,排除干扰项
主旨大意题的正确选项需要具有概括性,不能以偏概全或是泛泛而谈;选择最佳标题,要注意标题需有概括性、针对性和醒目性,标题要囊括文章的主要内容,指向文章的主要特点。
广东中考主旨大意题的干扰选项有以下特征:以偏概全、扩大概念、缩小概念及逻辑错误等。

技巧二:排除干扰项法
广东中考配对阅读是七选五,有两个多余的选项。两个干扰选项的特征是:题目能够在选项中找到对应词,但整体意思与题目不符。因此,做配对阅读时,找出关键词后,仍需要将题目与选项进行比对,掌握整体意思,排除干扰项。

Once there were many thousands of Gourma Desert (沙漠)elephants in Mali, a country in West Africa. Now, there are fewer than four hundred.
Why did the number of the elephants drop so quickly On the one hand, the elephants' main lake, their only water source (来源), dried up. On the other hand, the land which the elephants lived on was overused by humans.
To protect the elephants' living environment, the Mali Elephant Project (MEP)was started in 2007. MEP met with local people and helped them make rules of using land and water. As a result, the situation became better and there was more food, forest and grassland.
However, from 2012 to 2016, poaching (偷猎)and illegal trade in the elephants increased rapidly. Eighty three elephants were lost in 2015 alone, and another fifty one
elephant were killed in 2016. “If this situation goes on, all the Gourma elephants will be killed by 2020,” said a member of MEP.
Luckily, the voice of MEP was heard. More organizations (组织)have joined together to educate the local people that trading elephants is against the law. Elephant poaching has dropped to a very low level. The local people have learned to live peacefully with the elephants, one of the wildlife treasures in the world.

There's much to see under the sea,but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air. The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are. You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface,too. Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away. That fish might not be so big after all! It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more,in deeper water,colors just don't seem as bright. In fact,it looks as if some colors are missing. Remember the color of an object results from the
wavelengths(波长)of light that are reflected (反射)from its surface. And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater. Let's take a bright red,yellow,and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water. Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in the water. The red part now looks almost black because the red
light wavelengths,the longest among these three colors,are missing. As you go down deeper,the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part. Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater,you will look terrible,like a ghost(鬼怪)! And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again!
( )6.You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because ________.
A.your eyesight is quite poor
B.you are not quick enough
C.it is not as close as it seems
D.it disappears very quickly

Yu Boya was good at playing the qin (琴).One day , when he was playing the music that described green mountains and clear water, a man called Zhong Ziqi said, “I seem to see high mountains and running water while I was listening to your music.” Boya knew he found a good friend who really understood him.

Since the outbreak of COVID 19, in some cities, Meituan has become almost 5 times as busy as usual. During the special period, the delivery drivers (外卖骑手) are busier and more tired than before.
Gao Zhixiao from Beijing, 32, a delivery driver, has continued working as the virus spread across China. Ever since the COVID 19 outbreak erupted in China, he has to take a
health test each morning and spend about 20 minutes disinfecting (消毒) his motorcycle and clothes to avoid spreading germs during his route.
“After I gave her medicine, I stayed to talk to her,” he says. “Because I am also from a single parent family, I understand what it means to an old. She said that she hadn't eaten yet, because it was difficult to find food during the epidemic. So I made her instant noodles and two poached eggs, then took the trash out when I left.”
Li Fengjie is another delivery driver in Wuhan, who was born in 1996. He felt nervous when he heard the news about COVID 19. He took things a few steps further. As a Meituan rider in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province where the COVID 19 epidemic first erupted in late December, he knew that his services would be essential (必备) after the city of 11 million was locked down on Jan 23. Li walked 50 kilometers to get to work after all public transport was stopped.
“All the doctors and nurses are coming to Wuhan to help, so we, the riders, should also fight with them on the front line,” he says.
The great news is that Li Jie, who is a common delivery rider in Beijing, attended the meeting about COVID 19 prevention on March 9th, 2020. That means all the people must understand and respect the delivery riders. Without these drivers putting themselves at risk, families would go hungry and the sick wouldn't get necessary supplies.
( ) 6.Gao Zhixiao spends about ________ disinfecting his motorcycle.
A.20 minutes B.30 minutes C.an hour D.50 minutes

You'd probably look it up in a dictionary if you come across an English word or phrase you don't know. This, however, was not the case. Although English has a history of over 2,500 years, the first English dictionary didn't appear until the 17th century.
During the 16th century,Europe saw rich developments in science, medicine and arts. People had to “invent” words to
express new ideas. Many new English words were borrowed from foreign languages. There was also a renewed interest in ancient languages.
The general public, however, had difficulty understanding these new words. Robert Cawdrey, an English school teacher, wanted to help. In 1604, he published A Table Alphabetical in London. Cawdrey hoped his dictionary would be able to help more people learn to read and write properly.
But Cawdrey's dictionary was not very dependable. The first edition had only 120 pages. There were only 2,543 words in it. As Cawdrey's focus was on words “hard for the general public”,many common words were not included. And for many words, the explanations were unclear. Take “loaf” as an example. It said, “A piece of bread.” While in today's dictionary, it reads, “A shaped mass of baked bread that is usually sliced before eating.” For some words, Cawdrey gave
only one word explanation to each of them. This made A Table Alphabetical more like a book of synonyms (同义词) than a real dictionary.
Although Cawdrey's dictionary had many problems, it was quite popular. As the saying goes, “________.” In the year of 1604, people finally had something to help them read more easily!
