阅读选择解题技巧
一、理解文章的主旨要义
这类试题主要考查学生对文章主题和中心思想的领会、理解和概括能力。
学生可以通过“略读（Skimming）”来获取文章大意。篇章和段落往往都有主题句。文章的主题句是对全文的概括，是文章的主旨。一个恰当的主题句不仅讲述某一主题，同时还阐明作者对该主题的看法或者态度。主题句概括全篇(段)意思，其他句子是围绕这个主题句加以阐述、补充、发挥或者论证。抓住了主题句，文章的主旨要义就不难确定了。
（2015济宁D） （红体部分是个段主题句）
No one knows exactly when jazz was invented, or by whom. But it is said that it began in the early 1900s. Jazz was a new kind of music, for America and the world, and New Orleans was its birthplace.
Who were the jazz pioneers Most were blacks. This music was not written down, and at first only blacks played it. It was hard for white musicians to learn the new style. But soon they, too, were playing jazz.
The popularity of this music spread. From New Orleans, it traveled up the Mississippi to Chicago, then to Kansas City and New York. By the 1920s, there were many jazz musicians, both black and white. Many of them were famous. One man was better than the rest. His name was Louis Armstrong.
Louis Armstrong was a born musician. He was not only talented but also hard-working.
He also had a good sense of humor and a big, good-natured smile. These personal qualities were valuable in his rise to fame. After he became famous, he traveled around the world. It seemed that everyone wanted to hear Louis play. But life was not always easy, especially at the beginning.
Louis Armstrong was born in 1900 in New Orleans. His father never went to school and his mother could hardly read. When Louis was still a kid, his parents separated, and Louis lived with his mother. How hard their life was can readily be imagined. And yet Louis smiled through everything. He later wrote, "My whole life has been happiness. Life was there for me and I accepted it. Whatever happened has been beautiful to me. I love everybody."
47 What is the passage mainly about
A . The development of jazz.
B . The influence of jazz on Americans.
C . The achievements of Louis Armstrong.
D . The development of jazz and its best musician.
〖答案〗 D
〖解析〗本文首先介绍了爵士乐的诞生与发展，还用半个篇幅介绍了天才音乐家Louis Armstrong的非凡成就和人生态度。
主旨要义题的题干一般是：
What's the topic of the passage？
What does the passage talk about？
What is the main idea of this passage？
What does the writer want to tell us？
What is the best title for this passage？
二、理解文章的具体信息
这类试题也称之为事实或细节辨认题，既考查文章中提到的具体事实、数据或线索。在整个阅读理解试题中，具体信息题所占比重最大，一般在10道小题左右。在阅读试题时，要比较4个选项，找出表现差别的关键词，作为重点来思考。
做这类试题时，学生可以通过“扫读（Scanning）”来寻找答案。扫读是指有目的的为在文章中寻找某一具体信息而进行的搜索性阅读，如寻找人名、地名、时间或关键词语。然后开始做局部的细读，弄清并准确把握各个事实，发现跟其密切的信息，按照题干要求对号入座，选出正确答案。

Do you still remember the great snacks in your childhood Do they remind you of your happy childhood
Sugar Figure (糖人)
In the old days, you could always find people making sugar figures at the school gate. First, the maker would take a little maltose (麦芽糖) with a
small spoon, using his hands to make a figure, such as the Monkey King, the White Dragonet, and so on. It was not expensive, only 1 yuan for one. If one child bought a sugar figure, many other children would crowd around and admire it.
Dada Bubble Gum (泡泡糖)
Almost every kid is fond of bubble gum. They often gather together to see who gets the largest bubble. I still remember my cousin once blew a big bubble and then it broke, covering her face with gum! It was cheap. I could get 2 for 1 yuan.
Baby Face Ice Cream
We prefer to call it snowman ice cream. It tastes very delicious. It was rather expensive; I remember the price was 2 yuan for each piece, which was not easy for me to buy them those days. Each time I got one, the happiness would last for several days.
Malt Sugar Candy
Malt Sugar Candy is usually called Tangguar in northern China, and is offered during the days just before the Spring Festival. It's delicious but cheap, and you could get five pieces for 1 yuan. My friends and I would get together to enjoy Tangguar. What happy time!
36. A child who wants a cartoon character should choose .
A . Sugar Figure
B . Dada Bubble Gum
C . Baby Face Ice Cream
D . Malt Sugar Candy
〖答案〗A
〖解析〗：
文章讲到“First, the maker would take a little maltose (麦芽糖) with a small spoon, using his hands to make a figure, such as the Monkey King, the White Dragonet, and so on” 可知糖人制作者能够做出很多不同的卡通形象。
37. If you had 10 yuan, you could buy .
A . 20 sugar figures
B . 10 dada bubble gums
C . 5 pieces of baby face ice cream
D . 25 pieces of Tangguar
〖答案〗C
〖解析〗：4种小吃文中都提到了价格，冰淇淋2元1个，十元只能买5个，故选C。
三、理解词义、句意，明确的指代关系
文章中出现的超标词汇要求考生通过读懂文章内容对这一生词词义进行判断。一般来说，这些词汇有点生僻或者一词多义，做这里是提示还是有一些技巧的，比如巧用构词法，看看这个词是不是派生词或合成词，然后在派生词的前后缀或合成词的每个单词所表达的意义，最后再通过句意及上下文的语境等来确定其意义。
三、理解词义、句意，明确的指代关系
如果不是派生词或合成词，文章中总会在某处针对该词给予定义、阐述、解释或者举例，进一步传递相关信息。定义是作者为了更好地表达思想，在文章中对一些重要的概念，难懂的术语或者词汇等所作的解释。定义提供的信息具有明确的针对性。虽然进一步阐述不如定义那样严谨详细，但提供的信息足以使我们猜出生词的词义。另外恰当的举例也能够提供猜测生词词义的重要线索。和猜测词义类似的试题还有句意理解和明确一些代词的指代关系。

（2015济宁C）
There is an unusual holiday in the US that falls on the fourth Thursday of April every year. It is very different from Christmas, Thanksgiving, or other well-known holidays. It is called Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day. This holiday is meant to be educational as well as fun. The idea is simple, and the name says it all. It is a day for working parents to show their kids what they do all day.
Although this holiday doesn't seem very complex (复杂的), it has meaningful purposes. There are many good reasons why a child should know what his or her parents do at work. For one thing, it is hard for children to understand the life of an adult when all they know is school. Therefore, this holiday helps children learn what it means to have a job. It also helps them learn about the differences and similarities between their world and the grown-up world.
When young people know more about their parents' lives, they can form stronger parent-child relationships. This alone is worth a day of celebration.
41 The underlined part in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to .
A . every holiday needs a name
B . the name says it is known to all
C . the name explains the idea clearly
D . it is very different from Christmas
〖答案〗C
〖解析〗：
这个节日不寻常的名字叫Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day，已经把节日的主题清晰地展示出来了,答案选C。
四、理解作者态度和意图
把握作者态度和意图是对文章的深层理解，是一种创造性的思维活动。有时作者在文章里的表达并不是直接的，作者会暗示一些东西，并把它留给读者去推断和理解。在阅读文章时，如果上下文之间存在的未充分表达的内容，学生应充分激活头脑中已有知识和经验，以文章提供的事实和线索为依据，立足已知合理推断未知，对于给信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理。
四、理解作者态度和意图
有些文章作者对事件行为或者人物有明显的主观倾向。这类试题时，需要认真审题---提出的问题是问作者态度还是作为考生“你”的价值判断。
有时命题人员还要求学生对文章体裁或出处作出判断。

There is little doubt that house cat first developed naturally from ancient wild cats. The cleverest relative is the African wild cat which still lives in Africa today. This is understandable because the first house cats came from Africa.
Cats first started to live around people in Egypt about 6,000-7,000 years ago. From Egypt, cats started to move around the world. This is about the same time that Egyptians began storing grain (谷物) in buildings. Scientists used to believe that people tamed cats to catch mice and protect the grain. However, cats don't like to be told what to do! Now, scientists believe that cats followed the mice and learned to accept people. Finally, some of the cats began to grow comfortable around people. These were smaller cats that needed protection. As these cats and people got used to each other, then they moved in together. Around 5,000 years ago, cats started to live with people.
Soon cats were in Greece, then the Middle East and China. They moved along Egyptian business roads keeping away mice and keeping people around them. After the Romans came to Egypt, they also accepted the cats and brought them to Europe. These cats likely bred (繁殖) with other cats to form the many kinds of house cats we have today.
Cats are relatively recent house animals. House cats still have a lot in common with their wild relatives. Cats sleep a lot to save energy just like wild cats. They will often get food at night as well. House cats are generally peaceful and friendly, but be careful! If a cat feels it is in danger, it will fight back—just like a wild cat!

Billy always loved blueberries. They were his favorite fruit. Today he was going to make juice with his uncle. His uncle liked to make juice out of everything. He made carrot juice, apple juice, vegetable juice, and more juices. He had never made blueberry juice before though!
First, Billy and his uncle went to a blueberry farm. They were each given a basket. They picked for an hour and got several pounds. It was hard work picking the little berries from the trees. Now Billy understood why they were expensive in the store.
Next, they had to wash the fruit. Some of them still had leaves. Those had to be pulled off. Then the bad berries had to be thrown away. They washed the berries and made them air-dry.
After that, they pushed the blueberries through a strainer (过滤网). The strainer caught most of the seeds and skins, and only left a small glass of dark purple juice to them.
When they tasted the juice, it wasn't very sweet. Billy's uncle didn't want to add white sugar to the juice. It was better to use a naturally sweet juice, like apple juice, pear juice, or grape juice. They used grape juice as a sweetener (甜味剂), because grapes had a similar color to the blueberries.

couldn't talk with anyone about my problems.
Then one day, when my classmates were talking happily with their friends, I
was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the
classroom. I didn't know who he was. He passed by me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile.
Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made
friends. Day by day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
One day I asked him why he had smiled, but he couldn't remember doing so!

You want to know about my staying in America, right Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience study here.21教育网
In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.
When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.” when people say “How are you ” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good.” or “I’m tired.”
One day, someone greeted me with “What’s up ” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.
Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.
To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan.
However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.” I also surprised by how hard-working US students are. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.21·世纪*教育网

A three-year-old boy saved his mum's life by using her mobile phone to call for
help.
One morning, Aaron Green, found his mum Cally Wooton lying on t he floor of

The grandmother called Cally's best friend Kara McCoy, who lived nearby. Kara ran to Cally's house. She found Cally was lying on the bedroom floor. She must have

be alive." the boy's mother said, "I don't know how he did it. It is not easy to use that phone. It feels like I must have been watched over by an angel who was guiding him

Here are four letters to their headmasters from students in different places
Li Xue, 14, f'rom Jiangsu
I will give some suggestions about our school uniform. In our school, we have to wear school uniform every day. But the yellow and green sports uniform looks really dark and old. It can't stand for young and lively spirit. We can add some red or orange color and make a new type of uniform.21*cnjy*com
Liu Hua. 14, from Fujian
I have two suggestions for my headmaster. First, I think we should have more hobby classes in science, such as plane model making class and computer programming（编程）class. And second, I hope' we can have more PE lessons or more time for physical exercise.
Han Bo,15, from Shanxi
I'd like to say thanks to my math teacher. About one week ago, I got a bad cold af'ter playing basketball. My math teacher came to me after he knew about it. He took care of me until my parents came. I really want to thank him for that.
Zhao Fei, 14, from Hebei
I want to talk about the possibility of personal classes. Now many middle schools are trying the "personal class" system. Students don't have regular (普通的) classes in their schools. They can choose lessons they want to take. They don't have to stay in one classroom all the time. I think it is more effective. And it is also good for exercise.

There are many colors in nature. But do you think that a color has weight I
think you'll say "no". But I'm afraid you are wrong. If you don't believe it, you may do a small experiment (实验).
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes.
Third, wrap (包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other one with a white
piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that
you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so A scientist found that different colors have different weights in man's mind. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind.
The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color Of
course not. Then why did the scientist say so That is because every color stands
for (代表) a kind of light with a certain wavelength (波长). It reaches our brain
through sense organs (器官).
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like,
and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the
colors you like. Or you'll be nervous or even get ill. For example (例如), you like
blue and hate red. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpaper and furniture (家具) for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is
blue, you'll feel you have been there for only an hour. And, if a person walks out
of a blue and into a red room, his temperature will rise. That means our body
temperature will change with different colors.

A . the two boxes have the same weight
