阅读理解解题技巧

阅读理解题是考查学生对活的语言材料的理解能力，即通过阅读

材料获得信息的能力。具体说来，阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是：

(1)掌握所读材料的主旨大意，以及用以说明主旨大意的事实和细

节；(2)既理解具体事实，也理解抽象的概念；(3)既理解字面意

思，也理解深层含义，包括作者的态度、意图等；(4)既理解某句、

某段的意义，也理解全篇的逻辑关系，并能根据文章进行推理和判断;

(5)既能根据材料所提供的信息去理解，也能结合中学生应有的常

识去理解。根据这几项能力测试的要求，试题中常采用如下几种题型:

事实询问题、推理判断题、数据推算题、识图解意题和主旨大意题。

根据这一测试要求和题型设计，答题时可以采取如下解题技巧和对

策。

1.首先解题时要充满自信。由于平时有些同学对做阅读理解时

存在一种畏惧心理，因此考试做题时心理就难免会产生紧张感，特别

是阅读时再遇到几个生词就头脑发胀，从而使自己的思路更加模糊不

清。其实这是完全没有必要的，因为阅读中遇到几个生词或几个难以

理解的句子是常有的事，也是正常现象。因为按大纲要求，试卷中允

许有不超过3%的生词，只要认真分析，仔细阅读，这些生词和句子

很可能并不影响你的解题。所以答题之前首先要有必胜的信心。

2.扫读全文，理解全文主旨大意。拿到一篇文章，首先要快速

扫读全文，虽为扫读，但不可漫不经心，阅读时也应聚精会神，力求

可能多地获取材料信息，只是这次遇到生词和难句先不必去处理，不

要因纠缠文中的个别生词和难句而影响了对全文的主旨大意的了解。

3.对症下药，各个击破。了解全文的大概意思之后，再把短文

的问题简单看一遍，弄懂题意，然后带着问题再去寻读全文。这次阅

读过程中要善于抓文章中的关键词句。寻读也就是迅速的查找需要了

解的信息，是为某些特定的问题而阅读，因此阅读时要有较强的针对

性，对与问题有关的数据，词句等仔细阅读，认真理解，同时结合不

同考查内容的题型，采取如下解题对策：

(1)事实询问题：这类试题通常是以疑问词what,who,when,

where,why,how等引起的特殊问句，就文章中某一词语、某一句子、

某一段落或某一具体细节和事实进行提问。解答此类试题首先要弄清

题目和每一个选项的含义，然后按题目要求寻找与之相关的细节，正

确估计答案来源，同时注意题目和文章中的暗示作用。特别注意辨别

各种信息，确认各种信息。

(2)推理判断题：此题要求我们通过表面文字信息去推测文章

隐含的意思，对文章的发展情节及作者的态度、意图等做出合乎逻辑

的的推理判断。这种题要求我们在阅读时要抓住文章的主题和细节、

从分析文章的结构入手，根据上下文的内在联系，充分挖掘文章的深

层含义。对暗含在文章中事件的因果关系，人物的动机，以及作者未

言明的倾向、态度、意图、观点进行合乎逻辑的推理、分析和判断。

同时善于抓住文中实质性的东西，不要被带假象的表面信息或似是而

非的东西所迷惑。并且注意推断作者态度时要力求从作者的态度、观

点去思考，切勿想当然，凭个人的观点习惯看法来回答的问题。

(3)数据推算题：此题要求我们就文章提供的数据，以及数据

与文章中其他信息的关系做出计算和推断，然后做出选择。这就要求

我们解题时，要在理解好题意的前提下去对与数据有关的信息认真分

析，若数据信息较多，还要注意弄清数据之间的关系，同时分清有用

与无用信息，最终作出正确判断。

(4)主旨大意题：此题用以考查我们对文章主题或中心思想的

领会和理解能力。在解答此类试题时要注意每段的中心句，抓住每一

段的主题句。一般主题句都用来表达一段主旨大意，因此，只要找准

每段的主题句，文章的中心思想和文章的最佳标题也就不难确定了。

相信将这些阅读理解的技巧灵活的运用在做题过程中，英语阅读

理解一定会有所提高。
