When/Wheredidthestoryhappen？Whichofthefollowingstatementsis（not)correct？Whichofthefollowingstatementsis（not）mentionedinthepassage?Whichistherightorderoftheeventsgiveninthepassage?Allthestatementsaretrueexcept…

该题型几乎都可以在文章中直接找到与答案有关的信息，或是其变体。所以，搜查信息在阅读中非常重要，它包括理解作者在叙述某事时使用的具体事实、数据、图表等细节信息。在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都属于这类围绕主体展开的细节.做这类题一般采用寻读法，即先读题，然后带着问题快速阅读短文，找出与问题有关的词语或句子,再对相关部分进行分析对比，找出答案。65.D细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句Theseparticipantswerethenaskedtosearchfortheobjectagainwhilesayingthewordtothemselves，withresultsshowingthatsayingitaloudhelpedpeoplefindtheobjectmorequickly。研究人员要求被测者一边找去一边念叨要找的物品.结果发现自言自语的被测者能更快地找到东西。故选D。考点：考查新闻报道类阅读DWhyI’vetakenabreakfromholidaysItisnowclosetofouryearssinceIlasttookaholiday。ThisisbecauseIhavecometotheconclusion,overthecourseofmyadultlife，thatIamnotverygoodatit.Youmightthinkthissoundslikesayingyou'renotverygoodatdrinkingteaorlisteningtomusic。Whatcouldpossiblybedifficultaboutthenaturalactofputtingyourworkinglifeonholdforacoupleofweeksandgoingsomewherewarmtodonothing?Iwasamodelholidaymakerasakid.However，theproblemsstartedduringmytwenties.AtriptothesouthofFrancewasendedafterjusttwodays,mainlybecauseIhadanurgetocheckmye—mails。Similarly,myhoneymoonwascutshortby48hours—notbecausemywifeandIweren’tenjoyingourselves，butbecauseweweremissingourcats。Sowhatismyproblem?Onthesurface，I’mprobablyabitofahomebody。AndIjustfindthepressureofbeingonholidaytoosevere:italwaysfeelslikehavingagunheldtomyheadandbeingforcedtohavefun.Somehow，packingalistofpossessionsandmeetingascheduledflighthasnoneoftheexcitementofsuddenlydecidingtotakeadayoffanddrivingsomewhereforthefunofit.Thankfully，I’mnotalone.Thissummer，mostofmyfriendshavedecidednottohaveabreak.Andarecentsurvey（调查)provedthedownsideofholidays，withtheresultsshowingthatnearlytwothirdsofpeoplefoundthatthecalmingeffectsofaholidayworeoffwithin24hours，asstresslevelsreturnedtonormal.AndthisyearTheIdlermagazinepublisheditsBookofAwfulHolidays.Hereyouwillfindalistofthefivemostecologically-damagingvacationsit'spossibletotake，alongwith50painfulholidayexperiencesvotedforonTheIdlerwebsite.Whatinterestsmeiswhattheconceptofa“holiday"saysaboutourlives.Forme，thepointoflivingistohavealifeyouenjoyfor52weeksayear。ThemoreIlikemylifeandthebetterIstructureit,thelessIwanttogoaway。MaybeI'manunusualpersonfornotlikingholidays,butIjustfeelthetimewhenI’mnotworkingistoovaluabletowasteonthem。67.Theeventstheauthordescribesinthesecondparagraphshow______。A。howhardhehastriedtoenjoyholidaysB.howbadlyhebehaveswhenheisonholidayC.hislackofenthusiasmforbeingonholidayD。hisfearofsomethingbadwhenheisonholiday68.Whatdoestheauthorthinkofholidays？A.Theyareoftenwellorganizedinordertopleaseotherpeople。B.Hefeelsembarrassedwhenotherpeoplearehavingfunbutheisn't。C。Hetendstobemaderesponsiblefortoomuchoftheorganizationofthem.D。Theyarelessenjoyablethanbreaksthathavenotbeenplannedinadvance.69。Theunderlinedword“downside”inthefourthparagraphprobablymeans______。A.absence B.damage C.disadvantage D。conflict70.Whatistheauthor’sattitudetowards“takingaholiday"?A.Disapproving.

词义猜测题。任何一篇文章中的句子在内容上都不是绝对孤立的，都跟句子所在的段落及整整篇文章有关。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，是阅读过程中的一大关键。最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义.抓住所需推断词汇前后的“mean”或系动词或破折号等直接定义该词的部分.69.C词义猜测题。根据第四段第一、二句Thankfully,I’mnotalone.Thissummer，mostofmyfriendshavedecidednottohaveabreak。Andarecentsurvey(调查)provedthedownsideofholidays，非常感谢,我不是孤独的。今年夏天,多数朋友决定不去度假。可知下句所说的最近调查是在证明度假的缺点。故选C。考点：考查旅游类阅读第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，共10分）Rec
