高中英语阅读技巧及专题训练(含答案)

1、高中英语阅读技巧及专题训练（含答案）一、题型知识短文的体裁涉及记叙文、说明文、议论文和应用文等；题材涉及政治、经济、历史、地理、文化、教育、新闻报道、人物故事、科技信息、海外风情等；每段短文后一般设计4 道试题，最多的有5 道题，最少的设计3 道题。纵观历年高考英语试题，英语阅读理解主要从以下5 个方面来考查考生的英语阅读理解能力：1. 事实细节题 。这类题主要考查考生对英语文章事实细节的掌握情况。它又分为两种情况：一是词语细节类，其答案几乎可以直接从原文中找出来，考生只要根据题干中的关键词与原文进行对照，就能找到答案； 二是隐含细节类，这类题虽然不能直接从原文中的找到对应的词或短语，但考生可

2、以根据文章的隐含意义，如原因、前提或结果等仔细推敲出答案来。细节类试题的提问方式很多而且灵活，提问的对象涉及短文中的时间、距离、数量或原因、结果、方式等具体的细节，有的需要先进行计算才能得出答案，有的先要找出文章的相应部分才能得出答案，也有的要把文章中所有的相关细节全部找出来才能得出答案。常用的提问句型有：What does the author say in ?According to the passage, where / when / why / how / who ?What is the reason for ?Which of the following is (NOT) tru

3、e?Which of the following is (NOT) mentioned?The writer mentioned all of the following EXCEPT2. 推理判断题。 这类题不仅考查考生对文章中某些句子字面意思的理解，而且还考查对句子间逻辑关系的理解、对事物发展结果的推导。这方面的出题多、难度大，考生可得小心。其提问的常用方式有：What does the author think about ?What can be inferred / concluded from ?What do you think according to the passage?

4、According to the writer, which of the following is right?3. 词义猜测题和语义理解题。这类题主要考查考生对英语文章中生词的解释意义、代词的指代意义及短语或句子的含义。其常见的提问方式有：What does the writer mean by saying“” ?What does the word / phrase“”in Paragraph mean?Which of the following can replace the word / phrase“”in Paragraph ?From the passage we can

5、infer that the word / phrase “”is4. 主旨大意题。 这类题主要考查考生对文章中心思想、段落大意的归纳、总结及概括能力。其提问的方式常有：The title of this passage should beWhich of the following can be the title of this passage?What is the main idea of this passage?What does the writer mainly tell us in this passage?5. 观点态度题。 这类题主要考查考生对作者在文章中所表露出来的观点

6、、感情、态度、目的、意图的理解。考生要能够从文章的用词、语气或对某个细节的陈述来推断作者的态度、观点等。其提问的常见方式有：What is the opinion of the writer in this passage?What is the writer s attitude towards ?What does the writer think ?What is the purpose of the writer in this passage?二、词汇知识词汇是语言的重要组成部分，是进行阅读的基础。因此，考生首先要掌握必要的英语词汇：新课标对高中毕业的词汇要求是：运用词汇阅读理解和表

7、达不同的功能、意图和态度等；运用词汇描述比较复杂的事物、行为和特征，说明概念等；学会使用3,000 个单词和400 500 个习惯用语和固定搭配。新课标词汇表共收集英语词汇3,300 个，短语 360 个。其次，不仅要熟悉这些单词常见的词性和基本意义，而且还要了解单词的转类及引申意义。如果考生只知道question和 head 分别作名词， 基本意思分别是 “问题” 和“头，脑袋” 。那么对句子 Father questioned his daughter where she was heading when he saw her 中 question 和 head 就不能理解，从而造成句子理

8、解错误。最后，还要了解词缀的意义、认识常见的首字母缩略词。当我们认识like 时，就要知道dislike和unlike 的词性和意义区别； 在认识able 后，也要了解disable 和 unable 词性和意义的不同。如果把He is unable to get here today1理解为“他今天到这里时残疾了”就大错特错了。因此，正确掌握词汇知识，是正确理解的保证。三、语法知识英语跟汉语不一样，英语的语法形式表示着重要的意义。如果对语法形式理解错误，势必引起对句子的理解错误，因此，考生在阅读理解中必须注意以下几点：1. 冠词的有无 ：一般说来，可数单数名词前须加冠词，而不可数名词、专有名

9、词前通常不能加冠词。有些名词前加冠词和不加冠词意义不同，如： go to church 与 go to the church ，前者指“去做礼拜”，而后者指“去教堂”； word 和 a word，前者意思为“信息，消息”，后者意思是“一个单词，一句话”。因此，在阅读中不能忽视冠词的有无。2. 名词的数： 可数名词的数量超过 “一” 时，名词要用复数形式。 然而， 有些可数名词的单复数形式的意义不一样，不可数名词转为可数名词的复数时， 意义也不相同。 如： (a) manner 与 manners，前者指 “风格， 手法” ，后者指 “礼貌”； rain 与 rains，前者指“雨水”，而后者

10、指“一阵阵的雨”。3. 代词的意义 ：代词指代人、事或物，但是在具体的语境中，究竟指代什么呢？考生不可掉以轻心，而应该根据上下文来弄清楚它的意义。如果把句子She gave me an interesting book yesterday, which is written by E.E. Cummings中的 which理解为指yesterday 或前面整个句子的内容，显然就不正确4. 动词的时态、语态和语气：英语阅读中必须特别注意文章中的时态、语态和语气，因为，它们的形式分别代表着特别的意义。如 I didn t know English 就说明“我”过去不懂英语，言外之意，现在对英语已经

11、略知一二；如句子If I had been told about this, I wouldn t have done such a foolish thing 为虚拟语气，内容与事实相反，说明“原来没有人告诉我这件事，于是我做了一件如此愚蠢的事情”。5. 情态动词的意义 ：情态动词虽然不能单独充当句子的成分，但是决不能小看。它们在不同的语境中所表示的意义有区别。如： He must have gone to bed, for the lights in his house are all off 中的 must 只能是表示推测，说明自己一个人的看法；而在 She is very rebell

12、ious. When her father tells her to do something in this way, she must do it in anotherway 中， must 又表示“于说话人愿望相反和不耐烦”，意思是“偏要，偏偏”。6. 非谓语动词的意义：非谓语动词非常复杂，阅读理解中，更要小心。如不定式和动词的-ing 形式都能表结果，而不定式只能表示一种意外的结果；而动词的-ing 形式表示事物发展的正常的结果。在与谓语动词的关系上，不定式所表示的动作一般发生在谓语动作之后；动词的-ing 形式表示的动作与谓语动作同时发生或发生在谓语动词的动作之前；而-ed 的形式则

13、表示在谓语动作之前。7. 形容词、副词的理解：(1) 注意形容词与副词同形情况的理解。英语中有些词既可作形容词又可作副词，但在句子中的意义和作用不一样，在阅读理解过程中必须注意。如： close 作形容词时，意思是“亲密的，紧密的”；作副词时，意思是“靠近，接近”。 hard 作形容词时，意思是“坚硬的，猛烈的”；作副词时，意思是“努力地，使劲地”。(2) 注意形容词、 副词的级的理解。 形容词、 副词的级有时并不表示级的意义，在阅读理解中也应留心。 如： no morethan 意为“仅，只”，相当于only ； not more than 意为“至多”，相当于at most；在“ a mo

14、st + adj. / adv. + n. ”结构中， most 意为“非常”，相当于very等。(3) 注意对词尾有无-ly 的形容词、 副词的理解。 一般说来， 有 -ly 的是副词， 但是，lovely, lively, friendly, manly等都是形容词；有时，不管词尾有无-ly ，它都是副词，只不过有-ly 时，修饰抽象概念，无-ly 时，修饰具体的概念，如： high 与 highly ，deep与 deeply 等；而 hard和 hardly 都是副词，意思却完全不同，前者表示“激烈，猛烈；努力”，后者的意思是“几乎不”，相当于almost not。8. 介词的理解 ：

15、英语中介词是由古英语中的动词演变而来，不同的介词跟某个名词搭配， 有不同的意思。 如 in school与 at school，前者表示“ (在 )受教育”，后者意思是“在学校读书，学习”；in the sun 的意思是“在太阳底下，在阳光下”， under the sun 的意思是“天下，世界上；到底；究竟”等。在做阅读理解的过程中可不要搞混了。9. 连接词、引导词的作用 ：连接词、引导词不仅连接句子，也表示前后两句的某种关系。如but 连接两个句子时，表示后面句子跟前面句子的意思相反；while连接两个句子时，表示前后两个句子的对比；for 连接句子时，只能放在前一句的后面，补充说明前面句

16、子所发生事情的原因；because 引导原因状语从句，表示事情发生的原因，句子的位置非常灵活；而since, as 引导状语从句，位于句首时，也可表示事情发生的原因等等，考生在英语阅读中都要注意。10. 句子结构 。从一个句子中所含的主谓结构的多少来看，英语中句子分为简单句和复合句；从句子的功能来看，英语句子分为陈述句、疑问句、祈使句和感叹句；从句子的结构来看，英语句子可以分为正常语序句、倒装句、强调句、省略句等。四、文体及结构知识高考中的英语阅读短文的文件一般有 4 种，即记叙文、 说明文、 议论文和应用文。 在写法上它们都有各自的写作方法和结构特点。21. 记叙文： 记叙文又分为 3 类：

17、记事文、记人文和景物描写文。记事文。这类文章首先一般要交代一件事情发生的时间 (when) 、地点 (where)、人物 (who) 、事件 (what) ，然后再进行分析这件事情发生的原因 (why) 及发生的过程 (how) 。因此， 对于这类文章， 我们只要抓住了这五个 “ W ”和一个 “ H” 就行了。记人文，即人物传记。这类文章一般是采用倒述的写作方法，即首先用几句话来简单介绍这个人，接着介绍这个人的出生、 成长过程， 然后再记述他(她 )所干的一两件主要的事情或业绩，来反映他 (她 )的思想、 品德和情操，最后是作者对他 (她 )的评论，从而表达作者对他 (她 )的感情。景物描写

18、文。一般用来记述在某时、某地所见的事物及心里面的感受。这类文章一般按照时间或空间的顺序来记述，并且有时还夹插作者心里面的想法和感受。它好似我们中文中的散文，从表面上来看，没有中心或主题，只有通读全文后，仔细思考、归纳总结才会找出主题或中心来，从而进一步看清作者的目的、意图及心情。2. 说明文 ：说明文通常是用来对事物的情况进行描绘或对某种观点、理论进行解释，从而使人们明白事理或掌握某种方法技巧。在文章中，作者一般是首先提出一个要说明的对象，然后从时间先后、空间顺序、用途、方法、手段、事例或进行的步骤等各方面进行描绘或解释。3. 议论文： 议论文就是用来对人或事物的好坏、是非发表意见和看法。作者

19、总是先提出一个论点，接着对这个论点进行正反分析，逻辑推理或列举事例加以论证，然后得出结论。它一般分为立论和驳论两种，在立论中，摆事实、讲道理，论证其观点的可行性、正确性；在驳论中，作者首先提出一个不正确的论点，然后用事实、道理对它逐点进行驳斥，来证明它是错误的、行不通的，再得出正确的结论。4. 应用文： 应用文是日常生活中用来传播信息的一种文体。这类文章除用文字外，有的用图形，有的用表格。如：通知、广告、海报、书信、启事、便条、收据、借条和物品说明书等。这类文章有 3 个显著的特点：一是词汇较偏僻；二是语言也不规范；三是句子结构不完整，阅读起来的确困难。但是，它们一般属于应用文，告诉人们消息、

20、方法、途径等内容。五、文化背景知识文化背景包括政治、经济、社会、科学技术、天气情况、地理环境、人物的性格特点及知识水平等各个方面。如果背景知识丰富，阅读起来轻而易举；如果背景知识贫乏，阅读起来就感到困难，甚至理解不了。例如让同学们阅读一篇关于“水门汀事件”或“伊朗门事件”方面的英语文章，如果同学们对这两件事情的背景不清楚，阅读起来就会摸不着头脑。由此可见，文化背景知识是进行阅读理解的助手，考生一定要注意平时的积累。六、生活经验常识阅读理解的能力一般随着生活经验的丰富而不断提高。例如由于小孩还没有成年人的知识和经验，他们还看不懂成年人的文章，他们自然也就不喜欢成年人的读物；人们对于自己所经历的事

21、情一看就能明白，读起来也就有兴趣，而对于陌生领域的文章就感到困难。因此，同学们在平时要多积累生活经验。七、习语及固定搭配知识每一种语言都有自己的习惯用语和固定搭配。一般情况下，这些用语和固定搭配是不能单从字面上来理解的，英语也是如此。 如 eat ones words 的意思并不是 “食言， 说话不算数” 而是“收回前言， 为说错话而道歉”；break ones words 的意思才是“食言，失言”。又如，如果把 have words with sb 理解为“跟某人谈话”，那么就错了，它的意思是“跟某人吵嘴”；而 have a word / talk with sb 的意思才是“跟某人谈话”。

22、因此，这就要求同学们在平日的英语学习中必须进行广泛的阅读，积累、掌握英语中的习语及固定搭配。八、学科综合知识高考英语阅读理解方面的短文不仅包括社会生活、政治经济、文化教育各方面的知识，而且也包括历史、地理、物理、化学、生物、电脑技术、音乐、美术等各学科方面的知识。如果某学科的知识贫乏，势必会影响对这方面的短文的理解。因此，学好各学科的知识，对各学科知识的综合运用，是提高英语阅读理解能力的有效途径。AOnce upon a time， there were two sheep.

But recently this trend has been at the center ofan argument in Italian middle schools. The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearinglow-rise jeans that e

53、xpose underwear and parts of the body. His request came after a class trip ， when he saw one boysbaggy trousers slide to his feet.
