专题13 阅读理解之说明文（知识梳理＋专题过关）-2022-2023学年七年级英语上学期期末考点大串讲（外研版）（原卷版）

专题13阅读理解之说明文2022-2023学年七年级英语上学期期末考点大串讲（外研版）【知识梳理】＂英语说明文＂，顾名思义，就是一种以＂说明、解释＂为主要表达方式的英语文体。它是对客观事物的性状、特点、功能和用途等作科学解说的。它既不像故事那样重在情节的叙述和描写，也不像议论文那样，重在阐明主张和论点论据；更不像科幻作品那样富于想象和虚构夸张。说明文是通过解说事物、阐明事理，使人们增长知识和技能。说明文是高考英语阅读理解题中的重点内容之一。说明文具有与自己特点相适应的说明方法，因此说明文结构复杂，专业术语多，易于拉开考生分数档次，便于高校分层次选拔人才。然而对于考生来说说明文抽象度高，解题难度大。高考对说明文的考查多为科普知识，动植物特性、自然现象和新产品、新工艺介绍以及人文地理、风土人情等方面的说明文，文中解释性、定义性、说明性的句子居多。因此考生要掌握说明文的命题特点，叙述方式，以冷静的心态阅读原文，重点突破长句结构特点和逻辑关系，以便对其做出准确的语意理解。说明文阅读理解的特征一般说来，英语说明文与其他文体一样，文章所涉及的内容不外乎以下几个方面，即who→what→when→where→how→why。1.who：问的是这篇文章的主体是谁？（即所要说明和描述的人或事物）2.what：问的是主体做了什么事情？（即主体表现出的特性、功能和用途）3.when和where：是在何时何地发生的？（即何时何地所表现出的特性、功能和用途）4.how：通过什么方式表现出来的？5.why：这种特性功能用途的原因是什么？做说明文阅读理解题的时候，一定要记住上面的wh-word。边阅读，边搜记，牢记要点，把握全文。【专题过关】A（2022·江苏江苏·七年级期末）Howdoyouusuallydotheshopping?Doyoubuythingsinrealshopsoronline?Ifyoulikeshoppingonline,doyoubuythingsonTaobaoorJingdong?Doyouknowlive-streamingindustry(直播行业)?Itisanewandfashionwaytobuyandsellthingsthesedays.Manypeoplebegintobuythingsonlive-streamingplatforms(直播平台).“Sales(销售)throughlive-streamingin2021givespeoplehopeandanewwaytomakemoney.”saysAndreaFenn.Therearemanylive-streamingplatforms,suchasDouyinandKuaishou,andAlibaba’sTaobao.Manypeoplebegintosellthingsinthisway.OneofthemisLiJiaqi.Heis27yearsold.Hecansell15,000lipsticks(口红)infiveminutes.Unlikemanywomensellers,healwaystriesthelipsticksonhismouth,notonhisarms.Hisinterestingsalesmakehimgetthename“LipstickBrotherNo.1”.InFebruary2020,Taobaosellsalotofthings,becausemanypeoplecannotgoshoppingoutside.▲.AndreaFennsaysthattherearetoomanypeopleonthelive-streamingplatforms.“Nowtherearethousandsoflive-streaming.Andpeoplestarttothinkaboutthequestion:WhyarewebuyingthingsonTV,justlikethe1990sshoppingstyle?Somecompaniescannotgetmoneyfromlive-streamingbecauseofshoppersfatigue.Theyaretiredofdoingthat.”hesays.1．Whatisanewandfashionwaytobuyandsellthingsthesedays?A．Buyingthingsinrealshops.
