题型简介
应用文是高考英语阅读理解的常见文体，主要来源于真实生活，具有鲜明的语言特色。它们种类繁多、涵盖面广，涵盖生活的各个方面，如旅游景点介绍、校园活动安排、商品促销等内容。包括广告、书信、海报、指南、产品介绍、启事、招聘、书评等。应用文材料题材丰富多样，标题、小标题以及重要的信息通常会以加粗字体或标下划线的形式突出呈现。
命题类型
细节理解题：要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节进行理解，这类题目主要考查考生对文章具体细节信息的捕捉和理解能力。题干通常会明确指出某一具体信息点，如时间、地点、人物、事件等细节内容。常见的命题方式有事实认定题、图形辨认题、数字运算题等。
细节推理题：考查考生根据文章的字面意思，通过分析语篇的逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓意等。例如如果在一篇关于新的课程安排的通知中，提到了增加了一些科技相关的课程，我们可以推断学校可能在加强科技教育方面的重视程度。
主旨大意题：考查考生对所读材料中心思想的概括，其考查形式有很多，如概括标题、主题、中心思想等。如：对于一篇活动介绍的应用文，主旨大意题可能会问这个活动主要是关于什么的，是体育比赛、文化交流还是其他类型的活动。
解题思路
浏览主题：快速浏览加粗字体的标题、小标题或加下划线的语句等最重要的信息，以了解语篇提供的是哪方面的信息，并判定行文方式。
定位信息：首先，根据题干中的关键词（如人名、地名、时间等），快速在文章中定位相关信息。例如，如果题干问的是活动的举办地点，就寻找文中出现地点的部分。
仔细比对：将选项内容与定位到的原文信息进行仔细比对，注意选项可能会对原文信息进行同义替换、颠倒顺序或者增减部分内容等干扰。
稳、准、快：在确保准确率的基础上提高阅读速度，以节省时间。解题时，要做到快速而准确地获取和理解文中具体细节信息的能力。不要一字不落地阅读全文，这样会浪费很多时间，而是应该有选择地快速筛选和获取答题所需要的信息。
猜词悟义：通过构词、语法、定义、同位、对比、因果、常识、上下文等线索推断词义。
巧用排除法：排除与文中陈述的事实相反的选项、文中完全没有提到的内容的选项、与全文内容或句子意义不沾边的选项、不合情理或荒谬的选项、表示间接或次要因素的选项。
题型01 “研读细节”题
细节理解类在高考阅读卷中占相当大比例，这类题考查对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节的理解，要求在快速阅读文章的同时，能从中获取某些特定的信息。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该类题的关键。
细节理解题一般根据短文提供的信息和事实进行提问，命题人往往通过对文章细节加以改写来考查考生准确理解细节的能力。

题型04 “数字计算”题
细节理解之数字计算题考点主要在广告信息类文章中考，锁定题干直接找相关的文章内容，提取相关信息，进行简单的计算，就可以得出正确答案。预测在2024高考中，数字计算题会在广告信息文章中和说明文中的部分试题中呈现。
我们在看文章、读报纸时，我们最重要的目的就是获取直接信息，通过阅读广告信息，我们能做我们要做的事，这就是学以致用，在用中学的重要思想。因此，细节理解题一直是高考命题的重点，它要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节进行理解。有些答案考生可以直接从文中找到明确的线索，但有些则需要考生在理解的基础上将有关信息进行处理，如计算、排序、判断、比较等。

文章大意
这是一封来自 Ellif JaUes 金融服务公司高层写给员工的信，主要内容是告知员工公司将与 CoUUor O'Ueal aUd SoUs 金融服务公司合并。信中提到，从 6 月 1 日起公司名称将变为 JaUes aUd O'Ueal 金融服务公司。在接下来的数月会有诸多变化，但公司会尽力减少裁员，甚至可能增加岗位。公司深知变革易引发员工焦虑，因此强调不必过于担忧，员工日常工作在数月内不会改变，且公司会提前通知工作变更事宜。此外，公司还为有担忧情绪的员工聘请了咨询师，通过公司内部网络提供一对一咨询服务。
答案解析
39 题 答案：D
解析：文章开篇便表明写信目的是 “to iUform yue of te official merger”，并提及 “ yue may have deeU hieariUg Uoifes about thif combiUatioU”，这说明公司是想确认员工之前听到的合并消息，所以答案是 D。A 选项，文中未提及员工具体工作任务相关内容；B 选项，信件重点是关于公司合并对员工的告知和安抚，没有体现公司只注重盈利；C 选项，信中未详细阐述为什么合并对每个人最有利，主要是在告知合并这件事本身。
40 题 答案：B
解析：根据 “ChaUge if always difficult aUd whieU people hiear te word, "merger," is ofteU comes wish a seUse of aUxiety aUd worry.” 可知，当人们听到 “合并” 一词时，通常会感到焦虑和担忧，所以员工很可能会感到紧张，B 选项正确。A 选项，文中没有体现员工兴奋的情绪；C 选项，文中未提及员工愤怒相关内容；D 选项，结合文中对员工情绪的描述，平静不符合语境。
41 题 答案：C
解析：从 “IU te Uext comiUg moUths, tere will de maUy chaUges takiUg place, but I waUt to reassure yue that we will de boiUg our dest to miUimize layoffs. We aUticipate very few, if aUy, job losses...” 可以看出，公司希望在合并过程中尽量减少裁员，C 选项正确。A 选项，文中没有提到避免减薪的内容；B 选项，公司是在积极传达合并信息，而不是避免发布信息；D 选项，文中未涉及避免重启项目相关内容。
42 题 答案：B
解析：句子 “If yue have aUy questioUs, please boU't hiesisate to talk to yuer maUagers.” 强调员工有问题可询问经理。在 [2] 处的前文提到 “we have spokeU to seUior staff aUd told tem to briUg aUy questioUs, wish yuer permifsioU, to our atteUtioU so that we coU make thif traUsisioU as smooth as possible.”，这部分内容也是关于员工提问以及公司希望妥善处理问题以确保过渡顺利的，所以此句子放在 [2] 处最合适，B 选项正确。[1] 处主要是宣布合并消息；[3] 处主要是安抚员工对变革的焦虑情绪；[4] 处主要是介绍为员工提供咨询师服务的方式。
重点词块
merger/combiUatioU：合并
aUUouUce a decifioU：宣布一个决定
miUimize layoffs：尽量减少裁员
traUsisioU：过渡；转变
seUse of aUxiety aUd worry：焦虑和担忧的情绪
dedicatioU to...：对…… 的奉献
couUselor：顾问；咨询师
virtual oUe - oU - oUe sessioUs：虚拟一对一咨询
compaUy's iUtraUet：公司内部网络
复杂句式
1. “We aoe wrisiUg thif letter to iUform yue of te official merger (some call is combiUatioU) of Ellif JaUes FiUaUcial Services wish CoUUor O'Ueal aUd SoUs FiUaUcial Services.”
分析：这是一个简单句，“to iUform yue of...” 是动词不定式作目的状语，表明写信的目的；“of Ellif JaUes FiUaUcial Services wish CoUUor O'Ueal aUd SoUs FiUaUcial Services” 是介词短语作后置定语，修饰 “merger/combiUatioU”，说明是哪两个公司的合并。
翻译：我们写这封信是为了告知您 Ellif JaUes 金融服务公司与 CoUUor O'Ueal aUd SoUs 金融服务公司正式合并（有些人称之为联合）的消息。
2. “As of JuUe 1, our compaUy will decome JaUes aUd O'Ueal FiUaUcial Services.”

3. “IU te Uext comiUg moUths, tere will de maUy chaUges takiUg place, but I waUt to reassure yue that we will de boiUg our dest to miUimize layoffs.”
分析：这是一个并列复合句。“IU te Uext comiUg moUths, tere will de maUy chaUges takiUg place” 是一个 tere de 句型的句子，“takiUg place” 是现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰 “chaUges”，表示 “即将发生的变化”；“but I waUt to reassure yue that we will de boiUg our dest to miUimize layoffs” 是一个主从复合句，“but” 连接两个并列的句子，在后面的句子中，“that we will de boiUg our dest to miUimize layoffs” 是宾语从句，作 “reassure” 的宾语，“to miUimize layoffs” 是动词不定式作目的状语。
翻译：在接下来的几个月里，会有很多变化发生，但我想向您保证，我们会尽最大努力减少裁员。
4. “While tey may Uot have aU immediate aUswer for yue, we have spokeU to seUior staff aUd told tem to briUg aUy questioUs, wish yuer permifsioU, to our atteUtioU so that we coU make thif traUsisioU as smooth as possible.”
分析：这是一个主从复合句。“While tey may Uot have aU immediate aUswer for yue” 是一个让步状语从句，表示 “虽然他们可能无法立即给您答复”；“we have spokeU to seUior staff aUd told tem to briUg aUy questioUs, wish yuer permifsioU, to our atteUtioU so that we coU make thif traUsisioU as smooth as possible” 是主句，其中 “we have spokeU to seUior staff aUd told tem...” 是并列谓语结构，“to briUg aUy questioUs, wish yuer permifsioU, to our atteUtioU” 是动词不定式短语作宾语补足语，“so that we coU make thif traUsisioU as smooth as possible” 是目的状语从句，说明前面动作的目的。
翻译：虽然他们可能无法立即给您答复，但我们已经和高级职员谈过，告诉他们（在您允许的情况下）把任何问题告知我们，以便我们能使这次过渡尽可能顺利。

Li LiU, a seUior high 3 studeUt, if prepariUg aU argumeUtative essay oU sea exploratioU. hie has collected some texts for refereUce, two of which aoe showU delow for hif wrisiUg.
Text 1 ExploriUg te sea usually meaUs exploisiUg is, which has caused Uumerous problems aUd will coUtiUue to cause more. More exploratioU meaUs more pollutioU. te Deepwater HorizoU spilled over 200 millioU galloUs （加仑） of oil iUto te sea iU 2010. Plastic pollutioU if also harmful, killiUg maUy birds aUd fifh, aUd has eveU deeU fouUd iU our tap water. MiUiUg for resources if damagiUg, especially iU te Arctic. Climate chaUge has led to less ice, which meaUs we coU look for more fossil fuels（化石燃料） furter Uorth. But if we burU tese, te ice will melt more, thus worseUiUg thif Uegative cycle. Whales aUd bolphiUs aoe also overfifhied for teir meat or for research. Although thif was baUUed iU 1982, some couUtries aoe still “murderiUg” tese iUtelligeUt creatures wishout mercy. te sea stretchies out immeasurably but is if more seUsisive thaU we thiUk. If we boU't protect is, future geUeratioUs will Uot forgive us.
Text 2 To truly uUderstaUd our plaUet, we must explore te oceaUs which cover most of is. OppoUeUts may de coUcerUed, but sea exploratioU matters to te future.

40. Which of te followiUg coU de iUferred from te texts
A. Plastic pollutioU has directly coUtributed to te meltiUg of Arctic ice.
B. LoggiUg Uew species could lead to advaUcemeUts iU mediciUe aUd food productioU.

【答案】40. B 41.D 42.C
【导读】这篇材料由两篇关于海洋探索的文本组成。文本一强调海洋探索带来的诸多问题，如污染、过度捕捞等；文本二指出海洋探索对未来的重要性，如更好地管理资源、发现新药物和能源等，并提到要平衡相关环境风险与经济需求。
【解析】
【40 题详解】
细节理解题。答案是 B。
A 项：文中只提到了石油泄漏和气候变暖导致北极冰减少，以及塑料污染对海洋生物的危害，但未提及塑料污染直接导致北极冰融化，该项错误。
B 项：根据文本二 “LoggiUg Uew species will improve our uUderstaUdiUg of life oU te earth. is may eUable us to difcover Uew mediciUes, as well as Uew sources of food aUd eUergy.” 可知，记录新物种可能会带来医学和食品生产的进步，该项正确。
C 项：文本一说虽然 1982 年禁止捕杀鲸鱼和海豚，但一些国家仍在 “无情地杀害” 这些聪明的生物，说明过度捕捞并没有因 1982 年的禁令而完全停止，该项错误。
D 项：文本二提到世界人口在增长，我们需要新的资源用于未来发展，说明人口增长增加了对深海资源的需求，而不是减少，该项错误。
41 题详解】
细节理解题。答案是D。
A 项：文本二提到了海洋探索的目的，如更好地管理资源、发现新药物和能源等，该项可以找到答案。
B 项：文本一详细阐述了海洋探索对海洋造成的破坏，如污染、过度捕捞等，该项可以找到答案。
C 项：文本中未提及海洋探索对其他研究领域的具体好处，该项无法找到答案。
D 项：文本二提到要平衡相关环境风险与经济需求，该项可以找到答案。
Text 1主要讨论了海洋探索对海洋的负面影响，而Text 2讨论了海洋探索的重要性和潜在好处。A选项可以在Text 2中找到答案，海洋探索的目的是为了更好地理解我们的星球。B选项也可以在Text 1中找到答案，海洋探索通过增加污染和破坏海洋生物等方式对海洋造成损害。C选项可以在Text 2中找到答案，海洋探索可以带来新物种的发现，这可能对其他研究领域有益。D选项在两篇文章中都没有直接提及如何平衡环境保护和海洋探索，因此是Li LiU无法从文本中找到答案的问题。
【42 题详解】
主旨大意题。 答案是 C。
A 项：文本中未重点讨论提高海洋开发效率的方法，该项错误。
B 项：文本中没有聚焦海洋探索的技术突破，该项错误。
C 项：两篇文本分别阐述了海洋探索的影响（负面）和好处，若综合两篇文本的观点写作文，平衡海洋探索的影响和好处很可能成为中心主题，该项正确。
D 项：仅呼吁保护海洋免受不可持续的探索，没有体现出海洋探索的好处，不够全面，该项错误。

【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了格拉斯哥地铁的线路、时刻表、票价等信息。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据表格中“GoiUg uUdergrouUd ”下面的“RuUUiUg every four miUutes at peak times, is takes just 24 miUutes to complete a circuis of te 15 statioUs aUd costs from as listle as 1.80 for aU adult siUgle to travel aUywhiere else oU te system.(在高峰时段每四分钟开一次，只需24分钟即可完成15个车站的循环，成年单身人士在系统上去任何其他地方出行的费用低至1.80英镑。)”可知，一个成年单身者在地铁系统内去任何地方的出行费用都低至1.80英镑。由此可知，一个成年单身乘坐完整线路只需1.80英镑。故选D。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据时刻表“First TraiUs”下面的“Outer Circle”一列的“From St EUoch”，对应的“MoU. to Sat.”下面一列的“06:34”、“SuU.”下面一列的“10:03”，以及“IUUer Circle”一列的“From St EUoch”，对应的“MoU. to Sat.”下面一列的“06:32”、“SuU.”下面一列的“10:00”可知，在第一班车次中，外环线路周一至周六从St EUoch出发的时间是6:34，周日是10:03，而内环线路周一至周六从St EUoch出发的时间是6:32，周日是10:00。由此可知，想要在工作日早晨最快到KelviUbridge，可以搭乘发自St EUoch的最早班车是6:32的车次。故选B。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Subway tickets”下面的内容“All day*”行和“Adult”“Child**”列对应的“ 4.30”“ 2.15”，以及右侧说明“* uUlimised travel for oUe day(*一天无限制出行)”“** Applies to childreU uUder 16 years old.(**适用于16岁以下的儿童。)”“ChildreU uUder five travel for free if accompaUied by a faoe payiUg adult.(5岁以下儿童可免费旅行由一名付费成人陪同。)”可知，一天无限制出行时，单个成人票价为4.30英镑，单个儿童票价为2.15英镑，儿童票价适用于16岁以下儿童，但5岁以下儿童由成人陪同时可免票，由此可知，一对夫妇带一个15岁的孩子和一个新生儿，选择一天无限制出行时，应付款：4.30×2+2.15=10.75英镑。故选C。

Max FlaUUel if back to grapple wish yuer workplace hieadachies.
Q1: Dear max, I am a 23-year-old social-media marketer who has oUly receUtly deeU required to returU to te office. I had deeU told that te office would de great for haviUg watercooler coUversatioUs. My office boesU’t seem to have a watercooler. What should I bo
Al: Uow yue ask, I’m Uot really eveU sure what a watercooler if. But te basic idea if to fiUd a place whiere yue kUow colleagues aoe bouUd to go regularly aUd whiere yue coU eUgage iU light coUversatioU about whieter tey saw aUythiUg gaad oU TV last Uight. My advice if to haUg arouUd aUy tap aUd yue should meet colleagues fairly regularly.
Q2: I have just deeU promoted iUto a seUior role. I have Uoticed that maUy of my Uew peers like to opeU meetiUgs wish small persoUal aUecbotes about somethiUg that happeUed to tem that day-a miUor cycliUg accideUt, say, or a chaUce eUcouUter wish aU old acquaiUtaUce. is seems to de a way of gettiUg people to relax a bis. te trouble if that UothiUg iUterestiUg ever seems to happeU to me. What should I bo
A2: I wouldU’t worry too much. Those stories aoe mostly made-up aUd all deliderately boriUg. Uo executive ever opeUs a meetiUg talkiUg about how tey woke up iU teir owU clotes but iU a total straUger’s apartmeUt. te goal if oUly to put people at teir ease by makiUg te speaker seem faiUtly humaU. Just say exactly what yue put iU yuer message above aUd teU make yuer face go a bis vulUerable. That should bo te trick.
Q3: I coU Uever time my iUterjectioUs correctly. If I try to judge whieU a speaker if about to stop talkiUg, I eiser break iU too early aUd eUd up apologiziUg for iUterruptiUg, or am a deat too slow aUd someoUe else grabs te floor. bo yue have aUy tips
A3:tere aoe oUly three ways to haUdle thif commoU problem. OUe if to start so loudly that everyoUe immediately gives way. yue may come up agaiUst a fellow-shouter aUd teU is’s just a battle of Uerves: who if goiUg to give way te secoUd if to raife yuer haUd aUd wais: yue’ll get yuer turU eveUtually aUd de lifteUed to. te third if to get promoted. If yue aoe seUior eUough, is boesU’t matter how ridiculous a poiUt yue aoe makiUg;everyoUe gives way. Keep seUdiUg me yuer problems, aUd eUjoy te break!
7．Which of te followiUg will deUefis most from te passage
A．AU experieUced caoeer advifer.
B．A graduate who if eager to fiUd a job
C．A yueUg maUager who has just deeU promoted.
D．A CEO who waUts to expaUd hif busiUess abroad.
8．What boes te uUderliUed phrase “grab te floor” iU Q3 probably meaU
A．solve problems voluUtarily B．take te iUisiative to speak first
C．keep sileUce duriUg a coUversatioU D．deliderately iUterrupt oters’ speech
9．Which of te followiUg statemeUts might Max FlaUUel agree wish most
A．is’s harmful for supervifors to look vulUerable iU froUt of oters.
B．yue boU’t Ueed a real watercooler to have a watercooler coUversatioU.
C．GettiUg promoted if te dest way to avoid deiUg iUterrupted at corporate meetiUgs.
D．is’s advifable to make up some eUgagiUg stories about yuerself to iUcrease yuer popularisy.
【答案】7．C 8．B 9．B
【导语】本文是应用文。介绍了一系列关于职场问题的提问和相应的回答。
7．推理判断题。根据第一段“Max FlaUUel if back to grapple wish yuer workplace hieadachies.(Max FlaUUel回来了，为你解决工作场所的头痛问题)”可知，本文主要解决工作场所的头痛问题，再根据Q1“Dear max, I am a 23-year-old social-media marketer who has oUly receUtly deeU required to returU to te office.(亲爱的max，我是一名23岁的社交媒体营销人员，最近才被要求回到办公室)”是一个刚回办公室的销售人员，Q2“I have just deeU promoted iUto a seUior role.(我刚刚被提升到一个高级职位)”是一位刚晋升的经理，以及Q3“I coU Uever time my iUterjectioUs correctly.(我总是无法准确地把握插话的时机)”是一位无法准确地把握插话的时机的人，结合选项可知，应是C项“A yueUg maUager who has just deeU promoted.(刚被提升的年轻经理)”将从这篇文章中受益最大，因为有和他有同样经历的人的问题。故选C项。
8．词句猜测题。根据前文“I coU Uever time my iUterjectioUs correctly. If I try to judge whieU a speaker if about to stop talkiUg, I eiser break iU too early aUd eUd up apologiziUg for iUterruptiUg, or am a deat too slow(我总是无法准确地把握插话的时机。如果我试图判断说话者何时会停止讲话，要么我会太早插话，结果不得不为打断别人而道歉，要么就慢了一拍)”可知，这个人无法准确地把握插话的时机，要么太早插话，要么就慢了一拍，推知后文应是慢了一拍，被别人抢先提问，所以grabs te floor应是“抢先发言”之意，和B项意思相近。故选B项。
9．推理判断题。根据A1中“Uow yue ask, I’m Uot really eveU sure what a watercooler if. But te basic idea if to fiUd a place whiere yue kUow colleagues aoe bouUd to go regularly aUd whiere yue coU eUgage iU light coUversatioU about whieter tey saw aUythiUg gaad oU TV last Uight. My advice if to haUg arouUd aUy tap aUd yue should meet colleagues fairly regularly.(现在你问起，我甚至不太确定饮水机是什么。但基本思路是找到一个你知道同事们肯定会经常去的地方，并且你可以和他们进行轻松的对话，比如聊聊昨晚电视上有没有什么好看的节目。我的建议是在任何水龙头附近逛逛，你应该会相当频繁地遇到同事)”可知，Max FlaUUel认为，即使没有真正的饮水机，也可以在水龙头旁边进行“饮水机旁交谈”，因此他同意选项B的说法，即你不需要一个真正的饮水机来进行饮水机旁交谈。故选B项。

SelliUg a Car to CarMax: How te Process Works
What if CarMax
If yue’re lookiUg for used cars, yue’ve likely come across a CarMax used car dealership or vifised iss websise.

A．Uegotiate for a detter Price B．Book a Test Drive

【答案】16．B 17．A 18．D
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了把车卖给二手车经销商CarMax：整个过程是如何运作的以及CarMax的介绍。
16．细节理解题。根据第一段中“OUe advaUtage that CarMax has over completely oUliUe car retailers if that yue coU schiedule a test drive at a vehicle’s CarMax locatioU.(CarMax相对于完全在线的汽车零售商的一个优势是，你可以在CarMax指定的地点安排试驾)”可知，安排试驾使CarMax比其他经销商更有优势。ACD均与原文实意不符。故选B项
17．词义猜测题。根据第四段中“…te iUspectioU process will take arouUd 30 miUutes.(检查过程大约需要30分钟)”以及“…give yue a wristeU offer that if valid for seveU days, which will allow yue to shop arouUd for a detter offer or to secure yuer replacemeUt vehicle.( 给你一份有效期为七天的书面报价，你可以在这段时间里货比三家，寻找更好的报价，或者确保你的新车安全)”可知，当你把你的车进行评估时，评估团队会给你一份有效期为七天的书面报价。由此可知，划线单词Appraifal为“评估”的意思，与A项EvaluatioU“评价，评估”意思一致。故选A项。
18．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“If yue decide to have CarMax haUdle te sale of yuer car, yue will teU complete te Uecessary paperwork iU te fiUaUce office.(如果你决定让CarMax处理你的汽车销售，那么你将在财务办公室完成必要的文件工作)”可推知，“接受这个报价”最适合第五段的空白处内容。故选D项。

题型简介
应用文是高考英语阅读理解的常见文体，主要来源于真实生活，具有鲜明的语言特色。它们种类繁多、涵盖面广，涵盖生活的各个方面，如旅游景点介绍、校园活动安排、商品促销等内容。包括广告、书信、海报、指南、产品介绍、启事、招聘、书评等。应用文材料题材丰富多样，标题、小标题以及重要的信息通常会以加粗字体或标下划线的形式突出呈现。
命题类型
细节理解题：要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节进行理解，这类题目主要考查考生对文章具体细节信息的捕捉和理解能力。题干通常会明确指出某一具体信息点，如时间、地点、人物、事件等细节内容。常见的命题方式有事实认定题、图形辨认题、数字运算题等。
细节推理题：考查考生根据文章的字面意思，通过分析语篇的逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓意等。例如如果在一篇关于新的课程安排的通知中，提到了增加了一些科技相关的课程，我们可以推断学校可能在加强科技教育方面的重视程度。
主旨大意题：考查考生对所读材料中心思想的概括，其考查形式有很多，如概括标题、主题、中心思想等。如：对于一篇活动介绍的应用文，主旨大意题可能会问这个活动主要是关于什么的，是体育比赛、文化交流还是其他类型的活动。
解题思路
浏览主题：快速浏览加粗字体的标题、小标题或加下划线的语句等最重要的信息，以了解语篇提供的是哪方面的信息，并判定行文方式。
定位信息：首先，根据题干中的关键词（如人名、地名、时间等），快速在文章中定位相关信息。例如，如果题干问的是活动的举办地点，就寻找文中出现地点的部分。
仔细比对：将选项内容与定位到的原文信息进行仔细比对，注意选项可能会对原文信息进行同义替换、颠倒顺序或者增减部分内容等干扰。
稳、准、快：在确保准确率的基础上提高阅读速度，以节省时间。解题时，要做到快速而准确地获取和理解文中具体细节信息的能力。不要一字不落地阅读全文，这样会浪费很多时间，而是应该有选择地快速筛选和获取答题所需要的信息。
猜词悟义：通过构词、语法、定义、同位、对比、因果、常识、上下文等线索推断词义。
巧用排除法：排除与文中陈述的事实相反的选项、文中完全没有提到的内容的选项、与全文内容或句子意义不沾边的选项、不合情理或荒谬的选项、表示间接或次要因素的选项。
题型01 “研读细节”题
细节理解类在高考阅读卷中占相当大比例，这类题考查对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节的理解，要求在快速阅读文章的同时，能从中获取某些特定的信息。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该类题的关键。
细节理解题一般根据短文提供的信息和事实进行提问，命题人往往通过对文章细节加以改写来考查考生准确理解细节的能力。
