英语阅读理解、完形填空9大技巧

2011高考英语阅读理解、完形填空九大技巧及强化训练

1.先通读，后细读

阅读一篇文章，最好采用先通读、再细读的策略。首先要快速浏览全文，这一点非常重要。因为一篇文章是一个整体，是围绕一个中心思

想组织的。如果我们了解了文章大体讲的是什么，有了整个篇章的结构模式，就有利于我们理顺句子或段落间的关系，准确地把握文章的

主旨，同时也有利于我们在解题过程中有重点地细读部分内容。

•篇文章无论长短，要做到•口气读下来。对于生词，只要不妨碍我们理解主要内容，可暂时放下不管。如果我们读读停停，左顾右盼，

往往会把文章完整的体系读破了，有碍于对文章整体的理解。在掌握了文章的大体内容后，我们再根据需要解答的问题逐句细读，认真分

析词义及句子结构，从而更准确地把握文章的具体内容。

1.A.结合后面•句可知，“许多人与你在,起(withyou),却不能理解你

2.B.只有真正的朋友，才能留在心中。

3.D.结合后面的内容可知，“我”每天去听小姑娘拉小提琴。

4.D.金黄的树叶在秋风中随风飘动。

5.A.叶子是在风中飘动。

6.B.现在分词用作伴随状语。

7.C.秋天本是收获的季节，但是此处“我”却独自•人漫步在落叶之上，与下文的生活的无趣相对应。

8.C.短语getsb.down意为“使人泄气；使人疲倦”。

9.A.琴声像山涧溪流•样，流进(flowinto)“我”的耳畔。

10.A.短语belostin(doing)sth."陷入.之中”。此处指小姑娘正在聚精会神地拉小提琴。

11.B.结合上下文可知，“我”以前与小姑娘素不相识。

12.C.“我”沉浸在优美的琴声中，不自觉地在风中伫立。

应用when。

14.A.与上文的“生活无趣”相对，琴声让“我”觉得“生活有趣，

15.D.从整个句意来看，这里是一个让步状语从句。though表“尽管”，合乎文意。

19.A.此处是一个强调句型。

20.B.结合全文的意思可知，在“我”看来，小姑娘就像•个梦，让“我”久久难忘。

l.WhenIaskedhimifhehadhadanydifficultyfindingthehouse…当我问他找房子是否有困难时...(Line14,PassageA)

havedifficulty(in)doingsth.意为“在做某事方面有困难”,也可以说：havetrouble(in)doingsth.如：

Ihavesomedifficultyunderstandinghim.我理解他有些困难。

Didyouhaveanytroubleinfindinghishouse?你找到他家有困难吗？

英语中还有havedifficultywithsth.和havetroublewithsth.如：

IdonthavemuchdifficultywithEnglishgrammar.

我学英语语法并没有太多的困难。

Ihopeyouwon'thaveanytroublewiththework.

我希望你应付这工作没有困难。

2.Thegirlsmiled,andsodidI.小姑娘笑了,我也笑了。(Line29,PassageD)

-So+bc(have,助动词或情态动词)+(另)主语''用于表示某人与前者具有相同的肯定情况，意为“某人也•样如：

Ilikedogs;sodoeshe.我喜欢狗，他也如此。

HecanspeakgoodEnglishandsocanshe.他能说,口好英语，她也能°

如果对前面所说的内容加以肯定，那就不倒装。如：

—Jackwonthefirstprizeinthecontest.杰克在比赛中获•等奖。

—Sohedid.确实如此。

2.略读

略读(skimming)是利用较短的时间粗略地阅读全文的阅读策略，其主要目的是迅速抓住文章的主旨大意或作者的写作意图。这是一种高效

的、有选择性的、有针对性的阅读技巧。掌握略读这•技巧的关键就在于学会在阅读过程中区别文章的重要部分和非重要部分，全局部分

和枝节部分。一些次要信息要大胆略去不读，迅速找出topicsentence,即找出概括全段大意的句子。

在运用这•方法阅读文章时，要特别注意：①文章的标题；②文章的首句或引导性段落；③文章尾部的结论性词语；④反映段落中心思想

的主题句。如果我们找到了每段的主题句，再将这些主题句集中在一起，就差不多能够把握住全文的中心内容了。
