第1讲 题型破解——细节理解题
高频考点·研析透
细节理解题考查考生对阅读材料中的某一-具体事实和细节的理解,特点是题干针对原文提到的某事物、现象或理论进行发问。细节理解题有时比较直接,理解字面意思即可答题;有时则较为间接,需要归纳、概括和推理才能答题。细节理解题占阅读理解总题量的60%左右,是最重要的得分点。
考点1 直接细节题




直接细节题常以应用文的形式出现在考题中,涉及的话题有:广告类、活动安排类、书籍电影介绍类、演出信息类等。题目一般就文中的某一具体事实细节设题,设问方式多为以5W1H(what, who, when, where, why和how)等开头的特殊疑问句,在原文中可直接找到答案。




直接细节题主要考查对某句话或某几句话的理解,“题干定位法”是做事实细节题最基本的也是最常用的方法:
第一步:根据题干内容提取关键信息定位词。定位词主要是题干中的名词、动词和数词等,即问题的核心信息。在原文中查找定位词或定位词的近义词,找出相关的句子;
第二步:运用跳读、略读技巧快速在原文中查找定位词或定位词的近义词,迅速定位原文,找出相关的句子;
第三步:分析对比选项与文中细节,得出正确答案。




(2023·全国乙卷A)
PRACTITIONERS
Jacqueline Felice de Almania (c.1322) highlights the suspicion that women practicing medicine faced.Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery.In 1322 she was tried for practicing unlawfully.In spite of the court hearing testimonials (证明) of her ability as a doctor, she was banned from medicine. James Barry (c.1789—1865) was born Margaret Bulkley in Ireland but, dressed as a man, she was accepted by Edinburgh University to study medicine.She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas.Barry retired in 1859, having practiced her entire medical profession living and working as a man.
Tan Yunxian (1461—1554) was a Chinese physician who learned her skills from her grandparents.Chinese women at the time could not serve apprenticeships (学徒期) with doctors.However, Tan passed the official exam.Tan treated women from all walks of life.In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician. Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831—1895) worked as a nurse for eight years before studying in medical college in Boston in 1860.Four years later, she was the first African American woman to receive a medical degree.She moved to Virginia in 1865, where she provided medical care to freed slaves.
23.Who was the first African American with a medical degree? .
A.Jacqueline Felice de Almania.
B.Tan Yunxian.
C.James Barry.
D.Rebecca Lee Crumpler.
【解题示范】 第一步:阅读题干,找出题干关键词:the first African American with a medical degree;
第二步:迅速定位段落:根据第四部分“Four years later, she was the first African American woman to receive a medical degree.(四年后,她成为第一位获得医学学位的非裔美国女性。)”可知,Rebecca Lee Crumpler是第一位获得医学学位的非裔美国人。故选D。
考点2 间接细节题




考查间接信息题时,正确选项一般都会在原文基础上进行改造。常用方式是同义词替换或释义,即把文中语言(词汇和句式结构)改头换面,或者把文中信息整合归纳,来表达相同的意思。




在做间接细节理解题时,要根据所找信息,分析选项,对比其中所用词汇,以及表达方式,最后确定选项。
第一步:阅读题干,确定关键词;
第二步:定位题干关键词的转换形式(同义词、近义词、释义等),或者对原文的概括归纳,锁定原文相关信息;
第三步:利用正确选项特征,确定答案。
正确选项特征:
(1)用同义或近义词(组)复现。
(2)同根词或原词复现。
(3)语言简化或对原文概括归纳。简化原文中的复杂语言现象,或者用一句话概括归纳原文的某一部分,并设置为答案。
(4)反义词复现。把原文中的意思反过来表达。




(2023·全国乙卷C)
What comes into your mind when you think of British food Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables.But is British food really so uninteresting Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists.
It's thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits.It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain's consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way.There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges.It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.
According to a new study from market analysts, 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food.Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients(配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before.One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking.The UK's obsession (痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling.Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before.With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it's no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking.
28.What do people usually think of British food?_____
A.It is simple and plain.
B.It is rich in nutrition.
C.It lacks authentic tastes.
D.It deserves a high reputation.
【解题示范】 第一步:阅读题干,找出题干关键词:people usually think of British food;
第二步:辨别选项定位到段落:根据第一段“What comes into your mind when you think of British food Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables.But is British food really so uninteresting?(当你想到英国食物时,你会想到什么?你可能想到的是炸鱼薯条,或是一肉两菜的周日晚餐。但是,英国食物真的如此无趣吗?)”可知,提及英国食物,大家往往只是想到炸鱼薯条和周日烤肉,所以人们通常会觉得英国食物平平无奇。uninteresting和simple and plain可为语义上的转换。故选A。
考点3 数字计算题




既然是阅读理解题,数字计算题并不是真正考查考生的数学计算能力,主要仍是考查考生对文中涉及一些数字的某部分和题干的理解能力,数学计算方面是很基础的,简单的。




1.审明题干要求,提取题干中的关键词寻读原文,同时标记数字、时间、年代等相关信息。
2.弄清题干询问数据与原文数据的逻辑关系,并进行加减乘除计算。
3.特殊信息词应注意:
(1)特殊数字:decade十年;fortnight两周;double两倍;couple两个;score二十;dozen十二。
(2)特殊词汇:off削价,减价;discount折扣。

第2讲 题型破解——推理判断题
高频考点·研析透
推理判断题属于高层次阅读理解题,一般在理解原文字面意义的基础上,通过对语篇逻辑关系的分析和细节的暗示,做出一定的判断和推理,从而得出文章的深层意义及隐含意义。在进行推断时,要据文推理、合情推理,不可脱离原文主观臆断。
考点1 细节推断题




细节推断题要求考生根据语篇内容,就某具体细节进行推断,如时间、地点、人物关系、人物身份、事件等。一般可根据短文提供的信息,或者借助生活常识进行推理判断。一般题干中经常会出现六个动词:infer(推断),indicate(象征,暗示),imply(暗示),suggest(暗示),conclude(得出结论,推断出)和assume(假定,设想)。
该类型的命题方式常常以下列形式呈现:
(1)It can be inferred/concluded from the text that .
(2)What can we infer/learn from…
(3)We can learn from the passage that .
(4)The passage/story…indicates/suggests/implies that .




第一步:定位关键细节——根据题干提供的信息,抓住某一段话的关键信息,即推理的依据;
第二步:正确理解推断——对原文中的信息细读理解其字面意义,然后结合语境,在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的分析、推理、判断,利用逆向思维和正向推理,从而推断出这句话所隐含的深层含义。
【特别提醒】 (1)如果某个选项是文章中的一个细节内容,则不能作为推理的结论。
(2)切勿把脱离原文的个人看法、主观臆断作为答案。




(2022·全国乙卷B)
In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N.Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse.The girls had gone to Smith College.They wore expensive clothes.So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo.to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise.Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then Well, they wanted to do something useful.Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning.Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold.In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead.A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms.The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller.The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing.Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: “When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them.Then a full moon rose.The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter.”
25.What can we learn about the girls from Paragraph 3? .
A.They enjoyed much respect.
B.They had a room with a bathtub.
C.They lived with the local kids.
D.They suffered severe hardships.
【解题示范】 第一步:确定题干中的关键信息:learn about,Paragraph 3;
第二步:在确定推理依据的位置或范围第三段之后,再进行推理判断:根据“They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning.(她们和一个当地家庭,哈里森一家一起搬进去,并且和他们一样,几乎没有隐私,很少洗澡,早上醒来时被子上覆盖着一层雪。)”以及“In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.(在春天,覆盖在冰上的雪被泥替代。)”可知,女孩们的生活条件非常艰苦,她们饱受磨难。故选D。
考点2 观点态度题




所谓作者的观点和态度,就是表达作者对某个话题、行为、事件的看法、感觉或判断。作者的观点和态度一般分为三大类:支持、赞同、乐观、悲观;客观、中立;反对、批评、怀疑。作者的这种思想倾向和感彩往往隐含在文章的字里行间。因此,在推断过程中,应特别注意文中作者的措辞,尤其是表达感彩的形容词或副词。此类试题往往让考生推断文章作者或文中人物对某事所持的态度、观点或看法,或推断文中人物的语气、性格等。设问形式常有:
(1)What's the writer's attitude towards…
(2)What is the author's opinion on…
(3)What does the author think/feel about…




1.文章作者或文中人物对某事物所持的观点或态度往往隐含在文章的字里行间或流露于修饰词之中,注意文中作者或人物的措辞。
(1)正确掌握字里行间所隐含或流露的意思,切忌用自己的观点来代替作者或文中人物的观点。
(2)留意那些描写所处氛围及表达情感、态度或观点的词语或句子。
(3)关注首段首尾句,推断文章主题,确定作者观点。
2.要分清选项中的表示支持或肯定、中立、反对或否定的词语,再以此对照文章内容。下面是一些常见的有关作者情感、态度的词语:
(1)表示支持或肯定的词语
favorable赞同的,有利的;positive积极的,肯定的,确实的;supportive支持的;approval赞成,正式批准;reasonable合理的;enthusiastic热情的等。
(2)表示反对或否定的词语
critical批评的;negative否定的,消极的;disapproval不赞成;impractical不实际的;radical激进的;prejudiced有成见的,偏颇的等。
(3)表示中立或客观的态度的词语
objective 客观的;neutral 中立的;indifferent 漠然的等。




(2023·全国乙卷B)
Living in Iowa and trying to become a photographer specializing in landscape(风景) can be quite a challenge, mainly because the corn state lacks geographical variation.
Although landscapes in the Midwest tend to be quite similar, either farm fields or highways, sometimes I find distinctive character in the hills or lakes.To make some of my landscape shots, I have traveled up to four hours away to shoot within a 10-minute time frame.I tend to travel with a few of my friends to state parks or to the countryside to go on adventures and take photos along the way.
Being at the right place at the right time is decisive in any style of photography.I often leave early to seek the right destinations so I can set up early to avoid missing the moment I am attempting to photograph.I have missed plenty of beautiful sunsets/sunrises due to being on the spot only five minutes before the best moment.
One time my friends and I drove three hours to Devil's Lake, Wisconsin, to climb the purple quartz (石英) rock around the lake.After we found a crazy-looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to photograph the scene at sunset.The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background.We managed to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset.However, we did not mark the route (路线) so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely.Once we found the place, it was stressful getting lights and cameras set up in the limited time.Still, looking back on the photos, they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely.
27.How does the author find his photos taken at Devil's Lake? .
A.Amusing.      B.Satisfying.
C.Encouraging. D.Comforting.
【解题示范】 第一步:根据题干确定题型:由题干中的How does the author find可知本题是考查作者的观点态度;
第二步:确定答案,定位到原文,寻找相关信息:根据最后一段“Still, looking back on the photos, they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely.(尽管如此,回顾这些照片,它们仍然是我最好的一些照片,尽管如果我能明智地准备和管理我的时间,它们本可以拍得更好。)”可知,作者认为自己在魔鬼湖拍摄的照片是令人满意的。故选B。
考点3 写作意图题




通常情况下,作者在文中不直接陈述自己的意图,而是通过文中所列事物使读者感受到其所传递的想法。所以,这种题型要求考生具备对作者阐述的内容进行总结和分析的能力。设问形式常有:
1.整篇文章的写作目的/意图
(1)The writer writes this passage in order to .
(2)The purpose of the text is to .
(3)What is the main purpose of the passage
(4)The writer of the story wants/intends to tell us that .
2.某处细节的写作目的/意图
(1)The writer uses…in the first paragraph to .
(2)The writer uses the example of…to .
(3)The author writes the last paragraph in order to .




通常可依据文体特点来推断作者写作意图:
1.记叙文:通常会在首段或尾段出现高度概括性语言,且往往有一定的哲理性,所有叙述都围绕该哲理展开。
2.应用文:文章常对某事物或服务进行详细介绍,使用具有明显倾向性的语言。
3.说明文:其写作意图依赖于对文章主题句的把握,故应找准主题句。
4.议论文:一般开头提出某论点,中间进行论证,最后得出结论,写作意图常隐含于最后一部分中。




(2021·全国乙卷C)
You've heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year.But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does.He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash.Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源)of plastic pollution, but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled.Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate(说明)a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean.For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped (倾倒)from a truck all at once.
Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
29.Why does the author discuss plastic straws in Paragraph 3? .
A.To show the difficulty of their recycling.
B.To explain why they are useful.
C.To voice his views on modern art.
D.To find a substitute for them.
【解题示范】 第一步:阅读题干,把握出题意图:Why discuss,plastic straws;
第二步:通过题干中的Paragraph 3迅速定位第三段,该段讲的是“全球只有9%的塑料垃圾被回收。塑料吸管绝不是最大的塑料污染源,但它们最近却受到了抨击,因为大多数人不需要吸管喝饮料,而且由于它们体积小、重量轻,无法回收利用。冯·王作品中的每一根吸管都很可能来自只喝了几分钟的饮料。一旦饮料消失了,吸管也要几个世纪才能消失。”吸管由于体积小,重量轻,无法回收利用,由此可推知,作者在第三段讨论吸管是为了展示它们回收的困难。故选A。
文章来源题要求考生具备一定的常识,能够根据文章的体裁和题材来推断文章的出处或类别。读者对象推断题要求考生根据短文内容和文中的措辞推断文章的读者对象,即作者针对的读者对象是什么人。设问形式常有:
(1)This passage would probably/most likely be found in ______ .
(2)The passage is probably taken from/out ______ .
(3)The passage is probably intended for______.
考点4 语篇出处或读者对象题

(3)活动介绍:notice/announcement。
(4)文章前面有日期、地点或通讯社名称:news。
(5)科普知识/研究介绍:science report/study report。
3.确定读者对象
先确定文章主题,再根据文章具体细节内容判断读者对象。

专题一 阅读理解
第3讲 题型破解——词句猜测题
高频考点·研析透
词句猜测题旨在考查考生根据上下文推断单词、短语或句子的本意或外延含义的能力,既可以考查生词的意义,也可以考查熟词的新意,还可以考查对替代词所替代内容的判断。在阅读理解文章中,常常有一些单词或短语超出了考试大纲,但又没有附加注释,需要考生猜测词义才能准确理解文章。
考点1 词语猜测题




词语猜测题是基本上每年必考的阅读理解题型。词义判断是一种阅读技巧和能力,主要考查考生在短时间内根据上下文快速判断所指定的某一个生词或短语含义的能力,而这些词和词组往往都超出考纲范围,但在文章阅读中起到一定的作用。
词语猜测题的命题方式有:
(1)The underlined word “…” in Paragraph…is closest in meaning to .
(2)What does the underlined word “…” probably mean
(3)The underlined word “…” could best be replaced by “ ”.
(4)Which of the following words can take the place of the word “…”?
(5)By saying “…”, the author means .
(6)“…” used in the passage can best be defined as .




1.根据定义、释义或同位语进行猜测
(1)科技说明文等文章中,作者通常会对一些关键词或专业术语下定义,通过阅读定义和解释部分,考生便可理解该词或短语的意思。
(2)需要猜测的单词或短语后面有时会紧跟一个同位语,作为对前面的词或短语的解释说明。
(3)文章下文中常以某种特定方式对前文进行解释,如利用or, that is (to say), in other words, namely等词语。
(4)用冒号、破折号、括号等对某个词或短语加以解释说明。
例如:Taylor's swift action helped her teammates calm down.One girl called 911.Two more ran to get the school nurse,who brought a defibrillator,an electronic device (器械) that can shock the heart back into work.Luck stayed with them:Paris's heartbeat returned.
分析:所猜测单词defibrillator后面出现了同位语“an electronic device (器械) that can shock the heart back into work(一个可以电击心脏使其重新工作的电子器械)”来进行解释说明,我们可推知其词义应为“(心脏)除颤器”。
2.根据构词法进行猜测
英语中通过词根加词缀或合成两个单词的方式可以构成新词。因此,掌握了一定的构词知识,再结合上下文语境,也可以快速猜测词义。
例如:A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, uneasiness, or worry.
分析:根据构词法知识我们可知,un-为否定前缀,-ness为名词后缀,easy(舒适)为词根。因此,我们可知uneasiness为“不安;担忧”之意。
3.根据因果关系进行猜测
在阅读理解文章的句子或段落中,若两个事物或两种现象之间构成因果关系,这时我们可以根据这种因果逻辑关系推断词或短语的含义。表示因果关系的标志词有because, so, thus, therefore, as a result of, since, so that, so/such…that…等。
例如:My son could not follow the teacher's directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class.Didn't he know my son did not speak English yet
试题:What does the underlined word “disrupting” probably mean?
A.Breaking.      B.Following.
C.Attending.   D.Disturbing.
分析:画线单词所在的句子出现了因果关系标志词thus,由前面的原因“我儿子听不懂老师的指示”可以推知,“他因此认为我儿子斯科拉干扰了课堂”,符合这一因果逻辑关系。故选D。
4.根据同义或近义关系进行猜测
在画线单词或短语前后有时会出现与之同义或近义的词语或结构,它往往暗示了该词或该短语的含义,这时可从熟悉的词语中推知生词或短语的含义。常见的表示相同或相近意义的词和短语有and,or,like,as well,similarly,too,also,either等。
例如:The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(合作) with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St.Petersburg, Florida.
试题:What does the underlined word “contributions” refer to?
A.Artworks.   B.Projects.
C.Donations.   D.Documents.
分析:画线单词contributions前出现了and,可利用同义或近义关系进行猜测。and前面提到了“The fine selection of the major works(精选的重要作品)”,后面说contributions来自其他机构,由并列关系可以推断出contributions应该属于works的范畴,同时文中明确表示contributions是来自museum的。故选A。
5.根据转折、对比或反义关系进行猜测
有些需要猜测词义的词或短语前后会出现表示转折或对比的词语,运用这些词语也可以帮助猜测词义。能体现转折、对比关系的词汇很多,常见的有but,yet,however,while,unlike,instead (of),on the other hand,rather than,on the contrary等。
例如:In the evening,rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace,with golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink.Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive.
试题:What does the underlined word “Sedate” probably mean
A.Wild and romantic. B.Slow and peaceful.
C.Hungry and thirsty. D.Active and excited.
分析:画线词语所在句子的句意为“虽然它们 ,但是在一天的这个时候骑马观赏仍然令人印象非常深刻。”由though可知,前后两句是转折关系,再结合前一句中提到的“at a more relaxed and unhurried pace”可知,应选B项,Sedate意为“不慌不忙的”。故选B。
6.根据上下文进行猜测
有些词语猜测题找不到以上标志线索,这时可以利用上下文提供的情景和线索进行合乎逻辑的综合分析,进而推测词义,这也是近几年来高考考查的热点。

Can a small group of drones (无人机) guarantee the safety and reliability of railways and, at the same time, help railway operators save billions of euros each year That is the very likely future of applying today's “eyes in the sky” technology to making sure that the millions of kilometres of rail tracks and infrastructure (基础设施) worldwide are safe for trains on a 24/7 basis.
Drones are already being used to examine high-tension electrical lines.They could do precisely the same thing to inspect railway lines and other vital aspects of rail infrastructure such as the correct position of railway tracks and switching points.The more regularly they can be inspected, the more railway safety, reliability and on-time performance will be improved.Costs would be cut and operations would be more efficient (高效) across the board.
That includes huge savings in maintenance costs and better protection of railway personnel safety.It is calculated that European railways alone spend approximately 20 billion euros a year on maintenance, including sending maintenance staff, often at night, to inspect and repair the rail infrastructure.That can be dangerous work that could be avoided with drones assisting the crews' efforts.
By using the latest technologies, drones could also start providing higher-value services for railways, detecting faults in the rail or switches, before they can cause any safety problems.To perform these tasks, drones for rail don't need to be flying overhead.Engineers are now working on a new concept: the rail drones of the future.They will be moving on the track ahead of the train, and programmed to run autonomously.Very small drones with advanced sensors and AI and travelling ahead of the train could guide it like a co-pilot.With their ability to see ahead, they could signal any problem, so that fast-moving trains would be able to react in time.
29.What does “maintenance” underlined in Paragraph 3 refer to?____
A.Personnel safety.
B.Assistance from drones.
C.Inspection and repair.
D.Construction of infrastructure.
【解题示范】 第一步:迅速扫读文章,在文章中的第三段找出画线词;
第二步:利用上下文提供的情景和线索,进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义。根据下文“It is calculated that European railways alone spend approximately 20 billion euros a year on maintenance, including sending maintenance staff, often at night, to inspect and repair the rail infrastructure.(据统计,仅欧洲铁路公司每年在铁路维护上的花费就约为200亿欧元,其中包括经常在夜间派遣维修人员检查和维修铁路基础设施。)”可知花在maintenance上的费用是用于“inspect and repair the rail infrastructure”,由此可知“That includes huge savings in maintenance costs and better protection of railway personnel safety.”是指大幅节省检修成本和更好地保护铁路人员安全。故选C。

Terri Bolton is a dab hand when it comes to DIY (do-it-yourself).Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture, she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself.
She credits these skills to her late grandfather and builder Derek Lloyd.From the age of six, Terri, now 26, accompanied Derek to work during her school holidays.A day's work was rewarded with £5 in pocket money.She says, “I'm sure I wasn't much of a help to start with painting the rooms and putting down the flooring throughout the house.It took weeks and it was backbreaking work, but I know he was proud of my skills.”
Terri, who now rents a house with friends in Wandsworth, South West London, says DIY also saves her from losing any deposit when a tenancy (租期) comes to an end.She adds, “I've moved house many times and I always like to personalise my room and put up pictures.So, it's been useful to know how to cover up holes and repaint a room to avoid any charges when I've moved out.”
With millions of people likely to take on DIY projects over that coming weeks, new research shows that more than half of people are planning to make the most of the long, warm summer days to get jobs done.The average spend per project will be around £823.Two thirds of people aim to improve their comfort while at home.Two fifth wish to increase the value of their house.Though DIY has traditionally been seen as male hobby, the research shows it is women now leading the charge.
24.Which is closest in meaning to “a dab hand” in Paragraph 1?_____
A.An artist. B.A winner.
C.A specialist. D.A pioneer.
【解题示范】 第一步:找出画线短语所在文章中的位置;
第二步:利用下文提供的情景和线索,进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测含义:根据画线短语下文“Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture, she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself.(她擅长摆架子和拼接家具,从不付钱给别人做她自己能做的工作。)”可知,Terri Bolton是一位DIY高手。故选C。
考点2 代词指代题




判断替代词的指代内容,要求考生判断代词(it,one,they,this,that,these,those,which等)或代动词(do,does,did等)具体替代什么。




1.代词指代题常出现在人物或事物变换多、动作转换频繁的语境中,考生应根据语境判断人称代词、不定代词和指示代词。有时也会考查定语从句中关系代词的指代内容。
2.代动词do, does, did一般用来替代前文中出现的一个动词短语,以避免重复。
3.设问形式常有:
(1)What does the underlined word “this/it/them/which…” refer to
(2)The underlined part “it/that/they/which…” in Paragraph…refers to “ ”.
(3)What does the underlined word “do/does/did”in Paragraph…mean/refer to
判定指代三步法
第一步:确定代词在文中所指代的内容;
弄清代词指代的是前文中的人、物还是一件事,要用单数还是复数。
第二步:掌握代词的含义、用法;
(1)it/this/that可指代一件事。
(2)it/he/them/they/one/those指上文提到的人或物。
(3)which/that/who等关系代词指代其所修饰的先行词,非限制性定语从句中which可指代前面整句话的内容。
第三步:替换核实再比较。
(1)用所找的指代内容替换画线代词,核实句意是否合理,前后内容是否一致。
(2)比较所代部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。




(2022·新高考Ⅱ卷C)
Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel.
Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse.Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos.Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply.
That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted (分心)driving was “only increasing, unfortunately.”
“Big change requires big ideas.” he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety.So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving.
An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer.It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity.The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws.
“We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W.Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers.If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, “people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone.”
30.What does the underlined word “something” in the last paragraph refer to?_____
A.Advice. B.Data.
C.Tests. D.Laws.
【解题示范】 第一步:根据题干中的the last paragraph,确定画线代词在文章中的段落;
第二步:迅速扫读文章的最后一段,特别是画线代词所在句“We need something on the books that can change people's behavior(我们需要一些能改变人们行为的东西)”可知,something是能够改变人们的行为的事情。根据下文“If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, ‘people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone.’(他说,如果Textalyzer法案成为法律,‘人们会更害怕拿起手机。’)”可知,人们的行为会改变的条件是当Textalyzer法案成为法律。受到法律的约束和惩罚,司机们才不会在开车的时候使用手机。故something指代的是法律。故选D。
考点3 句意猜测题




句意猜测题一般出现在前后文有解释的特殊含义的语句或高度概括句中,要求考生用合适的句子解释这一语句或这一语句的某一部分。锁定语句前后,寻找意义吻合是解题的关键。




第一步:在原文中定位画线句;
第二步:查找画线句前后的关键信息句;
第三步:仔细阅读与画线句有意义关联的信息句,合理推断画线句的句意;
第四步:归纳总结,仔细比对选项,确定答案。




(2021·全国甲卷C)
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favorite:Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don't worry about it.Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up:Safe, man.Safe.A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting:“Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
9.What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean?____
A.Be careful!  B.Well done!
C.No way!  D.Don't worry!
【解题示范】 第一步:定位画线句,在原文第二段;
第二步:查找画线句后面的关键信息句:“And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.”;

第4讲 题型破解——主旨大意题
高频考点·研析透
主旨大意题考查考生对文章内容的深层次理解,它要求考生在充分理解全文的前提下,对整篇文章的主旨大意有一个较为清晰的印象,既考查考生略读文章、领会大意的能力,也对考生的归纳、概括能力提出了较高的要求。
考点1 标题归纳题




标题归纳题要求考生在理解文章的基础上, 结合文章的体裁和结构,从所给选项中选出适合文章的标题。设问形式常有:
(1)What is the best title for this passage
(2)What can be a suitable title for the passage/text
(3)Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
(4)The most suitable title of this passage is “ ”.
最佳标题应具备以下三大特征:①概括精准而简洁。②针对性强,标题外延与文章内容恰好相符。③醒目,能引发读者阅读欲望。




1.一般文章的标题可根据主题句来判断,但在某些文章中,如记叙文,没有明确的主题句,需要根据文中的事实细节,查找文章的“主线”,归纳出文章的主题。
2.所选文章标题须能概括全文的中心内容。标题是文章的点睛之笔,是文章的灵魂和门面。为吸引读者的注意,标题往往比较醒目。




(2023·新高考全国Ⅱ卷B)
Turning soil, pulling weeds, and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids.And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools.The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo's students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores.“The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says.“They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts' classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden.Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes.“We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they're eating differently,” Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program's benefits go beyond nutrition.Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens.Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo's special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues.“They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.”
27.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Rescuing School Gardens
B.Experiencing Country Life
C.Growing Vegetable Lovers
D.Changing Local Landscape
【解题示范】 第一步:阅读文章,概括文章大意:文章主要讲述了Abby Jaramillo等老师在低收入学校发起的培养学生科学能力、环保意识以及健康生活方式的Urban Sprouts花园项目,让学生通过体验乡村生活,对学生影响深远;
第二步:分析各选项,进行斟酌判断,揣摩哪个选项能准确概括主旨:根据第一段“And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools.The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.(起初是这样的,艾比·哈拉米洛说,她和另一位老师在四所低收入学校启动了Urban Sprouts学校花园项目。该项目旨在帮助学生培养科学技能、环保意识和健康的生活方式。)”以及下文内容可知,文章主要讲述了Abby Jaramillo等老师在低收入学校发起的培养学生科学能力、环保意识以及健康生活方式的Urban Sprouts花园项目,让学生体验乡村生活,对学生影响深远。因此推断B项“体验乡村生活”符合文意,最适合作为本文标题。故选B。
考点2 文章大意题




文章大意题要求考生在理解全文的基础上,从文中提取有效信息,概括归纳出文章的主旨大意、中心思想。此类题目没有明显的解题依据,是对文章深层次的理解。
设问形式常有:
(1)The general/main idea of the passage is .
(2)What is the main theme/topic/idea of this/the passage/text
(3)The passage/text is mainly about .
(4)What does the text/passage mainly focus on
(5)The passage mainly focuses on .




1.定位主题句确定文章大意
文章由段落组成,段落的中心思想服务于文章的中心思想,因此找到每个段落的主题句,总结概括后便不难得出文章的主旨大意。
一般情况下,段落的主题句通常在该逻辑段落的首尾,但也有些难度较大的试题会隐含在段落之中,此时要理解全文结构,找到支撑性细节内容。
以下为快速找到主题句的5个小窍门:
(1)段落中出现表转折的词语(however, but, in fact, actually, while, on the contrary, in contrast等)时,其后的句子通常为主题句。
(2)首段出现疑问句时,对该句的回答很可能就是主题句。
(3)作者有意识地反复强调的观点,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(主旨句通常包含关键词)。
(4)首段出现具体例子或假设时,例子或假设后的内容通常为主题句。
(5)表示总结或结论的句子常包含therefore, in short, conclude, conclusion, thus等词。
2.根据不同文体的结构和写作方法来定位主题句
(1)议论文主要是论述作者的某个观点,往往采用“总—分”或“总—分—总”的模式,所以主题句常在第一段或最后一段。
(2)说明文则是说明一个事物的用途或制作过程,主题句一般在首段。
(3)记叙文一般没有明显的主题句,需要根据文中叙述的内容和线索来概括文章大意,但是如果文章末段出现说理性的句子,则这个句子为主题句。




(2023·浙江1月卷B)
Live with roommates Have friends and family around you Chances are that if you're looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me.I've learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you'll find encouraging if you're doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back.I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere.It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach.I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn't need.Since I had my own toiletries(洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable.I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries.Perhaps your household won't entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you're doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate.If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won't do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
27.What is the text mainly about?____
A.How to get on well with other family members.
B.How to have one's own personal space at home.
C.How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D.How to control the budget when buying groceries.
【解题示范】 第一步:阅读文章,概括文章大意:文章讲述了作者如何在家庭中过零浪费的生活方式;
第二步:分析选项,斟酌判断:根据第一段“Chances are that if you're looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.”及第二段“I've learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you'll find encouraging if you're doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.”可知,文章主要讲述了作者如何在家庭中过零浪费的生活方式。故选C。
考点3 段落大意题




段落大意题主要考查文章某一段落的主要意思,是对一个段落的基本内容的简缩和概括。考生要用准确的、简练的语言把一个段落的主要意思明确而完整地表达出来。设问形式常有:
(1)What is the first paragraph mainly about
(2)What is Paragraph 1 mainly about
(3)What does the first paragraph mainly talk about




1.定位段落主题句,做到首尾兼顾
做题时要特别注意“首尾兼顾”,即所问段落的首句和尾句。一是因为它们往往体现主旨要义,二是因为利用这些信息可以迅速提炼段落结构框架,在框架下判断主旨,其准确性更高。
2.通过暗示揣摩段落大意
有时,作者不直接写出主题句,而是通过情感态度等方法暗示性地体现主题,此时要根据文中所叙述的事实和线索综合判断去揣摩并概括出段落大意。




(2023·新高考全国Ⅰ卷D)
On March 7, 1907, the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the “wisdom of crowds” effect.The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases, the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.
This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren't always the same.Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate.When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate.If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won't cancel each other out.In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent.If for whatever reasons, people's errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.
But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist (转折) on this classic phenomenon.The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals.For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.
In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion.Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates Did they follow those least willing to change their minds This happened some of the time, but it wasn't the dominant response.Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together”.Somehow, these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error.Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.
32.What is Paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?____
A.The methods of estimation.
B.The underlying logic of the effect.
C.The causes of people's errors.
D.The design of Galton's experiment.
【解题示范】 第一步:阅读题干,找出关键词:Paragraph 2,快速将解题信息定位到文章的第二段;
第二步:根据段落的内容,分析选项,判断概括准确的选项:根据“This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors
aren't always the same.Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate.When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate.If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won't cancel each other out.In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent.If for whatever reasons, people's errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.(这种效应利用了这样一个事实,即当人们犯错误时,这些错误并不总是相同的。有些人常常会高估,有些人会低估。当这些误差中有
足够多的误差被平均在一起时,它们会相互抵消,从而产生更准确的估计。如果相似的人倾向于犯同样的错误,那么他们的错误不会相互抵消。从更专业的角度来说,群众的智慧要求人们的估计是独立的。如果由于任何原因,人们的错误变得相关或依赖,估计的准确性就会下降。)”可知,本段阐述了人们所犯的错误不总是相同的,各不相同的误差平均在一起,相互抵消就会产生更准确的估计,讨论了独立估计的平均如何由于误差的消除而产生更准确的预测。因此本段主要解释了“群体智慧”效应这一现象的基本逻辑。故选B。(共14张PPT)

(2023·新高考全国Ⅰ卷B)
When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems.A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived.When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions.Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria(细菌) Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did.He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.
The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge(污泥).First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other.Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals.He placed them in the tanks and waited.Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem.After a few weeks, John added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results.The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs.He developed a greenhouse—like facility that treated sewage(污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington.He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.
“Ecological design” is the name John gives to what he does.“Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,” he says.“You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening.Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.”
24.What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs?____
A.He was fond of traveling.
B.He enjoyed being alone.

第7讲 体裁破解——说明文
高频考点·研析透
说明文通常运用举例子、作比较、分类别、析结果、列数字和作引用等手法,描述一项研究或者介绍一项新产品、新技术,以及介绍场馆,分析社会现象、语言文化、人文地理、生物的生存状况等,用平实的语言客观地说明事物、解释现象。事物说明文常用“总一分”式或“总一分一总”式结构;事理说明文采用由浅人深、由表及里、由现象到本质,逐层递进,剖析事理的递进式结构;文章各部分内容没有主次轻重之分时常用并列式结构;如果需要通过两个事物的对照和比较来说明其异同时常用对照式结构。说明文通常不包含作者的个人观点。




说明文阅读理解主要考查考生对词汇和句式的掌握和运用情况,阅读量大,生僻词汇多,句式结构复杂,题目往往涉及推理判断题和主旨大意题。因此,阅读说明文时,应把握文章结构,弄清作者所要说明的事物;另外,考生在平时的学习中应多积累阅读词汇,提高分析长难句的能力。




1.抓首尾段:首段往往提出文章的主题,尤其是研究类说明文,研究结果就是主题;尾段往往重申强调主题。
2.梳理文章结构:是整体叙述+细节或者是过程说明+概括评述;是现象+原因+后果/启示/措施还是研究发现/调查结果+研究/调查过程。
3.结合语境和所学语法知识破解结构复杂的长难句。




(2023·新高考全国Ⅰ卷C)
The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it's right for you.
To do so, I divided the book into two parts.In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people's digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy.
Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter.This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days.At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value.
In the final chapter of part one, I'll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter.In doing so, I'll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter.You'll hear these participants' stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.
The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate(培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle.In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude(独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use.Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter.You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances.
30.What is presented in the final chapter of part one?____
A.Theoretical models.  
B.Statistical methods.
C.Practical examples.
D.Historical analyses.
【解题示范】 第一步:浏览全文 把握主旨大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了数字极简主义生活方式的优点,倡导简单的数字生活方式;

第8讲 体裁破解——议论文
高频考点·研析透
议论文,也叫说理文,是一种剖析事物、论述事理、发表意见、提出主张的文体。文章主要是中外广泛关注的社会话题和热点问题,作者通过摆事实、讲道理、辨是非等手法,大多以“总一分一总”的结构行文,即提出问题一分析问题一解决问题”。议论文的三要素是论点、论据和论证,其目的是说服他人、宣扬观点,或者说服读者接受某种意见或采取某种行动。




议论文阅读理解难度相对比较大,命题角度多样化,细节理解题、推理判断题、词句猜测题、主旨大意题都有可能出现。因此,在阅读议论文时,应该从结构和内容两方面同时入手,先通读原文,再区分事实和观点,明确论点、论证和论据,把握作者最后得出的结论。




研读首段,确定论点:议论文的主旨,即论点往往在首段,尤其是首段中有however,but等转折词时,其后的内容便是论点。
细读中间段,把握论证方式:中间段是文章的主体部分,即论证部分,作者会用两个或两个以上的段落通过举例、引用、对比、列数字、引用事实和理论等进行论证,这一部分往往与细节理解题的考查点相对应。
关注尾段,理解结论:尾段是结论部分,要弄清楚作者所得出的结论。




(2023·全国乙卷D)
If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not.Writing is one of humanity's later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can't.The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook's voyage and the Australian Aboriginals.From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain's record of that terrible day.From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield(盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot.If we want to reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write.Those who are on the losing side often have only their things to tell their stories.The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice.When we consider contact(联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue.If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.
32.What is the first paragraph mainly about?____
A.How past events should be presented.
B.What humanity is concerned about.
C.Whether facts speak louder than words.
D.Why written language is reliable.
【解题示范】 第一步:浏览全文 把握主旨大意:本文是一篇议论文。本文讨论了仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史的局限性,并强调了将物品纳入历史叙事以更好地理解无文字社会的重要性;
第二步:题干定位:根据题干中的关键词:the first paragraph定位段落;
第三步:分析信息:根据第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not.Writing is one of humanity's later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate(有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.(如果你想讲述整个世界的历史,一段不以人类某一部分为特权的历史,你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述,因为世界上只有一部分人曾经有过文本,而世界上大多数人,在大多数时间里,都没有。写作是人类较晚的成就之一,直到最近,甚至许多有文字的社会也不仅用文字,而且用物件来记录他们所关心的事情。)”可知,第一段主要讲述的是历史应该如何呈现给我们。故选A。(共12张PPT)

第9讲 体裁破解——新闻报道
高频考点·研析透
新闻报道一般突出新闻性,作者要避免对该新闻事件进行主观判断和评价。新闻报道的内容真实、新鲜、及时,趣味可读,时效性强。第一句往往为全文的中心句,下文要叙述事件的过程和细节。新闻报道的一些常用语包括:It is reported that..., As isreported...,According to the report... , It is estimatedthat...等,时态一般用过去时,语言客观平实,往往没有过分花哨的词汇和过于复杂的句型。




新闻报道主要是提供事实信息,一般是简单叙述事件发生的五要素及各方反应,很少探究事件背后的原因。因此,做题时要关注新闻报道的结构和细节,题型主要为观点推断题、考查语篇衔接、推断某一特定词或者短语的指代内容或主旨归纳题。




1.研读导语:首段通常是导语,说明文章的中心人物或事件,即文章的主题。
2.直击题干:判断题目类型,找出定位词。
3.定位信息:根据定位词,在原文中找出关键句,对照选项确定答案。




(2023·浙江1月卷C)
A machine can now not only beat you at chess, it can also outperform you in debate.Last week, in a public debate in San Francisco, a software program called Project Debater beat its human opponents, including Noa Ovadia, Israel's former national debating champion.
Brilliant though it is, Project Debater has some weaknesses.It takes sentences from its library of documents and prebuilt arguments and strings them together.This can lead to the kinds of errors no human would make.Such wrinkles will no doubt be ironed out, yet they also point to a fundamental problem.As Kristian Hammond, professor of electrical engineering and computer science at Northwestern University, put it: “There's never a stage at which the system knows what it's talking about.”
What Hammond is referring to is the question of meaning, and meaning is central to what distinguishes the least intelligent of humans from the most intelligent of machines.A computer works with symbols.Its program specifies a set of rules to transform one string of symbols into another.But it does not specify what those symbols mean.Indeed, to a computer, meaning is irrelevant.Humans, in thinking, talking, reading and writing, also work with symbols.But for humans, meaning is everything.When we communicate, we communicate meaning.What matters is not just the outside of a string of symbols, but the inside too, not just how they are arranged but what they mean.
Meaning emerges through a process of social interaction, not of computation, interaction that shapes the content of the symbols in our heads.The rules that assign meaning lie not just inside our heads, but also outside, in society, in social memory, social conventions and social relations.It is this that distinguishes humans from machines.And that's why, however astonishing Project Debater may seem, the tradition that began with Socrates and Confucius will not end with artificial intelligence.
31.What can we learn from the last paragraph?____
A.Social interaction is key to understanding symbols.
B.The human brain has potential yet to be developed.
C.Ancient philosophers set good examples for debaters.
D.Artificial intelligence ensures humans a bright future.
【解题示范】 第一步:浏览全文 把握主旨大意:本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍的是在辩论中战胜人类的名为Project Debater的软件程序;
第二步:题干定位:根据题干中的关键词:the last paragraph定位段落;
第三步:分析信息:根据最后一段“Meaning emerges through a process of social interaction, not of computation, interaction that shapes the content of the symbols in our heads.The rules that assign meaning lie not just inside our heads, but also outside, in society, in social memory, social conventions and social relations.(意义的产生是通过社会互动的过程,而不是计算的过程,这种互动塑造了我们头脑中符号的内容。赋予意义的规则不仅存在于我们的头脑中,也存在于外部,存在于社会中,存在于社会记忆、社会习俗和社会关系中。)”可知,从最后一段我们能了解到社会互动是理解符号的关键。故选A。(共29张PPT)

掌握攻略·巧破题
一、常用阅读步骤
1.文章→问题→文章
速读文章掌握大意,然后看题目,再细读问题所在文章的部分来答题。这种方式有利于整体把握文章主旨及作者的观点意图,对文章理解度较深,适合于大多数语篇。
2.问题→文章→问题
先看问题,然后带着问题去读文章的某些部分,再答题。这种方式能够节省答题时间,针对性强,但只适用于较简单的文章,解答细节性和事实性的题目。缺点是先看问题会干扰对文章主旨大意的理解把握。
二、解题三步法
第一步:速读全文,抓住主旨
1.速读全文,重点读
(1)文章第一段。文章的主题、核心概念一般在首段出现。
(2)其他各段的段首和段尾句。其他部分略读。
2.读后掌握两点
(1)文章的主旨大意。
(2)作者的大致态度。
第二步:细审题干,定位原文
1.仔细审明题干内容,把每道题和原文的信息所在处建立联系,定好位
(1)信息词定位原则:通常是由题干出发,去原文中寻找可靠信息词:有大写字母的专有名词(如人名、地名等)、时间、数字等。
(2)自然段定位原则:出题的顺序与行文的顺序是基本一致的,一般每段对应一题。
平时训练时要树立定位意识,每一题、每一选项都要回到原文中某一处定位。
2.重点关注点
(1)首尾处
高考中的阅读理解文章一般结构层次清晰,逻辑性强,这类文章的首尾段经常是文章的主旨要义,而每段的首尾句经常又是该段落的主题句。
(2)转折处
文章中的转折处经常是体现作者观点或文章主题的地方,考生看到这些地方要重点关注并做上标记,以便做题时查找。常见的转折词语有:but, however, yet, still, in fact, as a matter of fact, on the contrary等。
(3)对比处
文章中作者经常将两个事物、事实或观点进行对比,以论证自己观点的正确性,而命题者常将针对双方的属性进行设题,此类试题多是推理判断题。常见的表示对比的标志性词语有:unlike, by contrast, (be) compared with, in comparison等。
(4)举例处
一般情况下在议论文和说明文中,作者都会通过例证的方式来说明某事物的功能作用或论证某种观点,这些地方通常是设题的热点区域。考生要牢记一般举例的前后处即为该例子的论点所在。常见的标志性词语有:like, such as, for example, for instance, take…as an example等。
(5)因果处
因果关系阐明了两事物的内在联系,是作者进行分析或得出结论的地方。常见的词语有:because, for, since, as, so, thus, therefore, consequently, cause, because of, due to, thanks to, as a result (of), result in/from, lead to等。需要注意的是,有时候文章中虽未出现表示因果关系的词语,但在逻辑上存在此种关系,此时考生就要根据实际情况去进行推理判断,理清逻辑。
(6)特殊标点处
文章的特殊标点符号处通常是作者表达特殊意图的地方,也是命题者经常设题处。
①破折号。其后的内容通常为对前面内容的解释说明或补充,用来表明此处信息至关重要。但两个破折号的作用通常为插入语,一般不会是重点信息所在;
②冒号。主要用来对前面内容进行解释或总结。一般情况下,出现冒号考生重点关注冒号后的内容即可;
③括号。英文中的括号不同于中文的用法,因为英文括号里的内容通常用来解释或强调括号前的内容,是重点信息所在处。
(7)结论处
文章中the research/study indicates, the report suggests, in short, in brief, in conclusion等都是表达结果或结论的所在。
(8)观点处
文章的作者及文章中提到的相关人员对某人或事物表达的观点态度通常会是命题的重点区域。做题时要注意doubt, appreciate, hate, be against/for, in favor of等词语。
第三步:仔细对比选项和原文信息,继而找出答案
通过题干返回原文:判断四个选项,抓住选项中的关键词,把选项定位到原文的某处比较重叠选项,选出答案。
实战导引·点迷津
(2023 新高考全国 I卷C)
Reading Art: Art for Book Lovers is a celebration of an everyday object—the book, represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world.The image of the reader appears throughout history, in art made long before books as we now know them came into being.In artists' representations of books and reading, we see moments of shared humanity that go beyond culture and time.
In this “book of books”, artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures.We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations.Adults are portrayed(描绘) alone in many settings and poses—absorbed in a volume, deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure.These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments we can all relate to.
Books themselves may be used symbolically in paintings to demonstrate the intellect(才智), wealth or faith of the subject.Before the wide use of the printing press, books were treasured objects and could be works of art in their own right.More recently, as books have become inexpensive or even throwaway, artists have used them as the raw material for artworks—transforming covers, pages or even complete volumes into paintings and sculptures.
Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated.From a 21st-century point of view, the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader.To serve its function, a book must be activated by a user: the cover opened, the pages parted, the contents reviewed, perhaps notes written down or words underlined.And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked, a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, “off-line” activity.
28.Where is the text most probably taken from? .
A.An introduction to a book.
B.An essay on the art of writing.
C.A guidebook to a museum.
D.A review of modern paintings.
29.What are the selected artworks about? .
A.Wealth and intellect.  B.Home and school.
C.Books and reading. D.Work and leisure.
30.What do the underlined words “relate to” in Paragraph 2 mean? .
A.Understand. B.Paint.
C.Seize. D.Transform.
31.What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader?____
A.The printed book is not totally out of date.
B.Technology has changed the way we read.
C.Our lives in the 21st century are networked.
D.People now rarely have the patience to read.
【解题导引】

29.细节理解题。根据第二段“artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures.We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations.(艺术品的选择和排列方式强调了不同时代和文化之间的联系。我们看到孩子们在家里或学校学习阅读的场景,这本书是几代人之间关系的焦点。)”可知,选定的艺术品是关于书籍和阅读的。故选C。
30.词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures.We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations.”以及“These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments ”可知,此处指书籍是人类之间相互联系和理解的纽带。故选A。
31.推理判断题。通过最后一段“it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader (它仍然像任何电池供电的电子阅读器一样具有互动性)”以及“a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, ‘off-line’ activity (印刷书籍仍然提供了完全私人的‘离线’活动的机会)”可知,本文作者提到电子阅读器想表达的是印刷书籍并没有完全过时。故选A。
