内化读文技法
分析标题与导语，把握报道核心
本文是一篇人物报道。此类文章一般由标题、导语、正文和结语组成。标题起着提纲挈领、吸引读者的作用。导语一般是报道开头的第一段或第一句，通常以极其简洁的文字，写出报道中最重要、最精彩的事实，牵引全文，吸引读者。正文揭示主题。如本文标题涵盖了作者、被报道主人公的姓名和身份信息。在导语部分作者介绍了采访Jason Harley的背景和意义；在正文部分作者介绍了Jason生活方式的改变及其原因；在文末结语部分作者再次总结。阅读此类文章时，注意分析标题和导语，准确把握报道传递的核心信息。
(一)赏用词之妙
1．For a lot of people, becoming a millionaire is a symbol of success and they set this as their ultimate goal.
赏析：句中ultimate准确地描述了人们的真实追求及现状，作为全文的主旨句，为后文叙述做铺垫。
2．However, there are people who have turned their backs on their millions and found other forms of success in their lives.

(二)赏逻辑之巧
1．He was tired of being regarded as living a successful life, as a person who had everything while many people had nothing.
赏析：这句话的逻辑主要体现在因果关系的表达上。主语“He”对“被视为过着成功的生活”感到厌倦，原因是“作为一个拥有一切的人，而很多人却一无所有”。这个逻辑关系表达了一种矛盾：虽然他的生活在外界看来是成功的，但他内心并不认同这种看法。这种对比和反差突出了他对自己生活的矛盾看法和复杂情绪。
2．A few years ago, I was a millionaire, but I knew millions of people died of hunger every year, and there were places with no schools and no teachers. So many people could never go to school. They didn't have the chance to learn and get on in life.
赏析：句中用but和so突出了经济富裕和普遍贫困的对比，解释了作者对自身财富的矛盾情感，揭示了作者改变生活方式的原因。这种逻辑关系表达了作者对自己拥有财富的反思，以及对自己的社会责任的认识。

北方的学校设施往往要好一些，而南方的学校则相对差一些。

他试着写日记——但三天来什么事也没发生，所以他放弃了。
(三)赏句式之高
1．What I want is to live simply and be helpful to others.
赏析：句中what引导主语从句，不定式短语to live simply and be helpful to others作表语说明想要做的事情。
2．Whenever he had more than two thousand dollars, he would give away small bank notes to homeless people in the streets of local areas.
赏析：句中whenever引导时间状语从句，相当于every/each time。本句表示每当他有超过两千美元时，他就会向当地街头无家可归的人赠送小额钞票。
[仿写训练] (完成句子)
①____________________________ the Great Wall tomorrow.他想要的是明天去参观长城。
②________________________________________________________________________，

I immediately knew I had confided in the right person when a knowing smile broke across her face. “Johann, of course! You can do anything you want to do！” she said simply. And with my grandmother's support, I set out to pursue my passions.
14 years later, I was well ready to take hold of my first dream: becoming an Olympic champion. The Olympics in 1994 were in my home country, Norway. ， I wasn't the best athlete, and many had doubts about my ability to perform well. But I had something special working for me. as I did. For the first time ever, my grandmother was going to see me skate.
It happened. Breaking a world record, I won the gold.
my head. Why me Why did I win, given all the other incredible competitors out there The reason had to be more than a grandmother who shared a belief in her grandson's dream. The question led me to only one answer: , and with all the media attention on my success, I could.
I immediately knew : hope in the lives of the children in Africa. Six months earlier, I'd been invited to Eritrea as an ambassador for Olympic Aid.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
A 16-year-old girl from Changsha, Hunan Province, successfully reached the top of Qomolangma on Monday morning, becoming the youngest Chinese female to conquer (征服) the world's highest top from the southern slope (坡)．
Xu Zhuoyuan is a first-year high school student from Hunan Province. On April 15, she left Changsha for Nepal. On April 21, she began her long walk from Lukla. On April 28, she arrived at the base camp and started her altitude adaptation training at once. At 10 p．m. Beijing time on May 14, Xu started walking from Camp 4 at an altitude of 7,950 meters on the southern slope of Qomolangma. After a punishing 10-hour climb, she successfully reached the summit.
Xu Zhuoyuan's father, Xu Jianglei, was the first person from Hunan Province to reach the top of Qomolangma. Xu Zhuoyuan has been exploring remote areas with him since she was very young. Despite her young age, Xu Zhuoyuan has already climbed five mountains over 5,000 meters in China. When she was 12 years old, she made a statement on Hunan TV saying, “I will climb Qomolangma.”
Four years later, she achieved her promise. Although Xu Zhuoyuan has rich climbing experience, she has been experiencing high-intensity professional training non-stop to conquer Qomolangma. Last year, she climbed Mount Muztagata, which stands 7,546 meters. “Human beings are small in the face of nature. We should respect nature and get closer to Qomolangma，” said Xu Zhuoyuan.
She brought the gloves her father used when he reached the top with her as a form of inheritance and to bear witness to her own dream coming true. After finishing her university studies, she hopes to continue climbing and achieve the “7＋2” (7 tops plus the North and South Poles)．
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了长沙16岁的女孩徐卓媛成功登顶珠峰的故事。
1．When did Xu Zhuoyuan arrive at the base camp
A．On April 15. B．On April 21.
C．On April 28. D．On May 14.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“On April 28, she arrived at the base camp and started her altitude adaptation training at once.”可知，徐卓媛是在4月28日到达登山大本营的。
2．Which word can best describe Xu Zhuoyuan
A．Honest. B．Clever.
C．Creative. D．Determined.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“When she was 12 years old, she made a statement on Hunan TV saying, ‘I will climb Qomolangma.’”以及第四段中的“Four years later, she achieved her promise ... non-stop to conquer Qomolangma.”可推知，12岁的徐卓媛立志要攀登珠峰，经历了高强度的训练，四年后实现了自己的诺言，这说明她是一个意志坚定且勇敢的人。
3．Why was Xu Jianglei mentioned in Paragraph 3
A．To describe his achievements.
B．To show his impact on his daughter.
C．To recognize his support for the girl.
D．To stress girls should be taken good care of.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Xu Zhuoyuan's father, Xu Jianglei ... Xu Zhuoyuan has been exploring remote areas with him since she was very young.”可推知，本段提到徐卓媛的父亲，是为了说明父亲对她的影响。
4．What's the best title for the text
A．A Great Father Shocks the Whole World
B．Qomolangma Draws More and More People
C．16-year-old Girl Tops World's Highest Mountain
D．Father and Daughter Conquer the Highest Mountain

B
In today's motivational literature, failure is often viewed as something to be celebrated. Inspirational speakers are fond of quoting the words of the novelist Samuel Beckett — “Fail again. Fail better.” It seems that disappointments are an essential stepping stone to success, a turning point in our life story that will ultimately end in victory.
However, psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively. In other words, we fail to “fail forward”. We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed, and become less motivated to persevere (坚持) and reach our goals. This phenomenon is known as the “sour-grape effect”， which was discovered by Professor Hallgeir Sjastad.
Sjastad explains that “sour-grape effect” is a self-protective mechanism (机制). “Most of us picture ourselves as able people, so when feedback (反馈) from others suggests the opposite, it poses a serious threat to that self-image，” he says. “The easiest way out is to deny or explain away the outside signal, so we can keep a positive sense of self. We do this even without noticing.”
If you have one bad interview for your dream job, you might convince yourself that you don't really want it at all, and stop applying for similar positions. The same goes if you fail to impress at a sports trial, or if you lose a singing contest. “We tend to explain away our shortcomings and convince ourselves our ‘Plan C’ is actually our ‘Plan A’，” Sjastad says.
It doesn't mean we should persevere in goals all the time. It can be healthy to change if the process is no longer making us happy. But the “sour-grape effect” may lead us to come to this decision prematurely, rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve.
Failures are unavoidable. By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, however, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。大多数人难以积极地应对失败，但这可能会产生负面影响。所以我们要学会面对失败，这样才能更容易达到我们的目标。
5．Why does the author mention the speech of inspirational speakers in Paragraph 1
A．To offer an approach to handling failure.
B．To introduce a common attitude towards failure.
C．To emphasize the importance of experiencing failure.
D．To discuss the relationship between success and failure.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段可知，作者提到励志演讲者引用的话“再次失败。失败得更好。”是想证明如今的励志文学常常将失败视为值得庆祝的事情。由此可推测出，作者想要通过引用他们的演讲介绍人们对待失败的普遍态度。
6．What can we learn from Paragraph 3 about the “sour-grape effect”？
A．It does harm to our self-image.
B．It pictures us as perfect people.
C．It protects us from false feedback.
D．It makes us refuse negative feedback to ourselves.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段可知，“酸葡萄效应”是一种自我保护机制，当外部反馈与自我形象不一致时，我们就会否认或为这种外部信号辩解，从而保护自己。由此可推测出，“酸葡萄效应”会否认外界对我们的负面反馈。
7．What does the underlined word “prematurely” in Paragraph 5 mean
A．Hurriedly. B．Mistakenly.
C．Unhappily. D．Carelessly.
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve”可知，这里应与rather than后的内容相反，prematurely意为“提前地，过早地，仓促地”，与A项“匆忙地”词义相近。
√
8．Which statement would the author most probably agree with
A．Get ready to replace “Plan A” with “Plan C”．
B．Never forget to maintain a positive sense of self.
C．Don't quit when goals no longer make you happy.
D．Don't escape when our self-image gets challenged.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, however, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.”可知，作者认为当我们的自我形象受到质疑时，不要一味地逃避。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
As a captain, you should know exactly what to do when your team lose a game because how your team deals with defeat has an important impact on how they perform in the next match. 9
Emotions are OK.
You shouldn't deny your players the opportunity to show their emotions when they lose but make sure they know where the boundaries are. 10 For example, showing dissatisfaction towards a teammate or the referee means they start the next game on the bench. They will soon learn to control their emotions.
Have a post-match routine.
Introduce a post-match routine that players follow — win or lose. For instance, you could encourage them to shake hands with opponents, and the referee, as soon as the final whistle sounds. 11
Encourage positivity.
Always acknowledge the disappointment of your players, but emphasize the positive elements of the performance. It is important that players go home with a positive mindset after the game. 12 Make them understand although they cannot win the matches they have already lost, they can now focus on winning the next one.
13
If you are going through some bad results, one way of keeping players motivated is to de-emphasize winning and focus on improving skills. After a defeat, if you make your next match a must-win game, you are putting more pressure on your players than is needed. Instead, try setting the team realistic goals within the game.
A．Stay cool as a captain.
B．Take the focus off winning.
C．Such routine can help players deal with losing graciously.
D．No one individual is ever responsible for victory or defeat.
E．They should know they have achieved something despite the result.
F．You should help your team understand why losing can be a step forward.
G．Set standards of behaviour and give punishment if players don't follow them.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了作为队长需要知道处理比赛失败的一些方法，以及让团队理解为什么失败可以是前进的一步。
9．解析：选F 根据上文可知，作为队长，你要知道当你的球队输掉比赛时该怎么做。故F项“你应该帮助你的团队理解为什么失败可以是前进的一步”承接上文，符合语境。
10．解析：选G 根据上下文可知，要确保他们知道自己的底线在哪里和不良情绪造成的负面影响。故G项“设定行为标准，如果选手不遵守就给予惩罚”承上启下，符合语境。
11．解析：选C 根据本段小标题“Have a post-match routine.”可知，本段讲述的是赛后习惯；上文举例具体说明这一习惯。故C项“这样的习惯可以帮助球员从容地面对失败”承接上文，总结该段内容。
12．解析：选E 根据上下文可知，积极心态很重要，不要太在意输掉的比赛，要专注于赢得下一场比赛。故E项“他们应该知道，尽管结果如此，他们还是取得了一些成绩”承上启下，符合语境。
13．解析：选B 根据下文可知，本段讲述的是不再强调胜利，而是专注于提高技能。故B项“把注意力从胜利上移开”能够作本段小标题，总结该段内容。UNIT 2 课时检测(二) “Money vs Success”的课文习读环节

In today's motivational literature, failure is often viewed as something to be celebrated. Inspirational speakers are fond of quoting the words of the novelist Samuel Beckett — “Fail again. Fail better.” It seems that disappointments are an essential stepping stone to success, a turning point in our life story that will ultimately end in victory.
However, psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively. In other words, we fail to “fail forward”. We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed, and become less motivated to persevere (坚持) and reach our goals. This phenomenon is known as the “sour grape effect”， which was discovered by Professor Hallgeir Sjastad.
Sjastad explains that “sour grape effect” is a self protective mechanism (机制). “Most of us picture ourselves as able people, so when feedback (反馈) from others suggests the opposite, it poses a serious threat to that self image，” he says. “The easiest way out is to deny or explain away the outside signal, so we can keep a positive sense of self. We do this even without noticing.”
If you have one bad interview for your dream job, you might convince yourself that you don't really want it at all, and stop applying for similar positions. The same goes if you fail to impress at a sports trial, or if you lose a singing contest. “We tend to explain away our shortcomings and convince ourselves our ‘Plan C’ is actually our ‘Plan A’，” Sjastad says.
It doesn't mean we should persevere in goals all the time. It can be healthy to change if the process is no longer making us happy. But the “sour grape effect” may lead us to come to this decision prematurely,_rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve.
Failures are unavoidable. By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, however, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.
5．Why does the author mention the speech of inspirational speakers in Paragraph 1
A．To offer an approach to handling failure.
B．To introduce a common attitude towards failure.
C．To emphasize the importance of experiencing failure.
D．To discuss the relationship between success and failure.
6．What can we learn from Paragraph 3 about the “sour grape effect”？
A．It does harm to our self image.
B．It pictures us as perfect people.
C．It protects us from false feedback.
D．It makes us refuse negative feedback to ourselves.
7．What does the underlined word “prematurely” in Paragraph 5 mean
A．Hurriedly. B．Mistakenly.
C．Unhappily. D．Carelessly.
8．Which statement would the author most probably agree with
A．Get ready to replace “Plan A” with “Plan C”．
B．Never forget to maintain a positive sense of self.
C．Don't quit when goals no longer make you happy.
D．Don't escape when our self image gets challenged.

As a captain, you should know exactly what to do when your team lose a game because how your team deals with defeat has an important impact on how they perform in the next match. __9__
Emotions are OK.
You shouldn't deny your players the opportunity to show their emotions when they lose but make sure they know where the boundaries are. __10__ For example, showing dissatisfaction towards a teammate or the referee means they start the next game on the bench. They will soon learn to control their emotions.
Have a post match routine.
Introduce a post match routine that players follow — win or lose. For instance, you could encourage them to shake hands with opponents, and the referee, as soon as the final whistle sounds. __11__
Encourage positivity.
Always acknowledge the disappointment of your players, but emphasize the positive elements of the performance. It is important that players go home with a positive mindset after the game. __12__ Make them understand although they cannot win the matches they have already lost, they can now focus on winning the next one.
__13__
If you are going through some bad results, one way of keeping players motivated is to de emphasize winning and focus on improving skills. After a defeat, if you make your next match a must win game, you are putting more pressure on your players than is needed. Instead, try setting the team realistic goals within the game.
A．Stay cool as a captain.
B．Take the focus off winning.
C．Such routine can help players deal with losing graciously.
D．No one individual is ever responsible for victory or defeat.
E．They should know they have achieved something despite the result.
F．You should help your team understand why losing can be a step forward.
G．Set standards of behaviour and give punishment if players don't follow them.
