1、考点35 阅读理解记叙文高考频度:记叙文类文章描述的是一件具体事情的发生、发展和结局,通常有时间、地点、人物、事件等。有些文章是按事件发展的经过为主线叙述的,在叙述的过程中有详有略;有些文章是按时间的顺序叙述的,有顺叙、倒叙等。从总体上来讲,文章的难度通常不大,在阅读过程中,我们一直在某个线索的引导下,随着作者的思路去了解一个故事或一件事情的始末,因此会感到比较轻松。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件之间的关系、作者的意图和态度、故事的前因和后果等方面入手,考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。阅读此类文章应特别注意:(1)若是一般故事性文章,应读懂故事的发生、发展、高潮和结局;(2)若是哲
2、理故事,要理解故事所蕴含的哲理意义;(3)若是 逸闻趣事,应体会对话的风趣性,进而才能感受幽默的精髓。二、命题方式考向一 细节事实理解 一篇文章必然是由许多具体的细节、具体的内容构成的,所有这些信息以某种顺序(时间、空间、情感变化等)排列起来,来进一步解释或阐释主题,体现文章的主旨大意。细节理解题目主要考查学生对文章具体事实和细节的理解能力,属于表层理解题范畴,难度较小,但在整个阅读理解题中所占比例最大,细节理解题多从文章的某个具体事实或细节出发来设计题目。此类题通常根据文章具体内容来设问,也常使用下列方式来提问:1.Which of the following statements is(n
3、ot) true/correct?2.Which of the following is not mentioned?3.All of the following are true except.4.According to the passage, when/where/why/how/how/what/which,etc.?1.直接事实题 在解答这类问题时要求学生抓住题干文字信息,采用针对性方法进行阅读,因为这类题的答案在文章中可以直接找到。 2020年山东省高考英语试卷(新高考全国卷,B)Jenifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the t

20、W qualification course and the Forum at the same time, you will save_ .A. $100B.$300C.$350D.$400 这类题目要求学生就文章提供的数据,以及数据与文中其他信息的关系做简单计算和推断。在做此类题时:1.要抓住并正确理解与数据有关的信息含义。2.弄清众多信息中那些属于有用信息,那些属于干扰信息。3.不要孤立看待数字信息,而要抓住一些关键用语的意义。考向二 主题理解或写作意图推断 一、主旨阅读理解题考查的内容1.短文的标题(title,headline);2.短文或段落的主题(subject);3.中心思想(
21、main idea);4.作者的写作目的(purpose)。二、此类题的设问方式1.What would be the best title for the text?2.What does the second paragraph mainly discuss?3.What is the passage mainly about?4.The main purpose of announcing the above events is_.考向三 推理推断 推理题要求考生根据文章提供的事实和线索进行逻辑推理,推断出作者没有提到或者没有明说的事实或者可能发生的事实。这类题旨在考查学生透过词语的字面
22、意义去理解作者的言外之意或弦外之音的能力,属于深层理解题。此类题的设问常常包括infer, imply, suggest, conclude 等词,这类题的设问方式主要有:1.We can infer from the Passage that_.2.What can be inferred from the Passage?3.Which of the following can be inferred from the Passage?4.It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that_.5.The author suggests in this para
23、graph that_.6.The writer implies that_.7.It can be inferred that_.8.It can be concluded from the Passage that_.9.On the whole, we can conclude that_.10.From the text we can conclude that_.11.After reading the Passage we may conclude that_.12.What conclusion can be drawn from the Passage?13.The autho

25、ed in the passage, the phrase .suggests.3.From the passage, we can infer that the word/phrase . is/referred to.4.The word . is closest in meaning to.猜词是应用英语的重要能力,也是高考中常用的题型。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会顺藤摸瓜,通过构词、语法、定义、同位、对比、因果、常识、上下文等线索确定词义。1.定义法。如:Annealing is a way of making metal
26、softer by heating it and then letting it cool very slowly.句子给予annealing 以明确的定义,即 退火。It will be very hard but also very brittlethat is,it will break easily.从后面的解释中我们可以了解到brittle是脆的意思。The herdsman, who looks after sheep, earns about 650 yuan a year.定语从句中 looks after sheep 就表明了 herdsman 的词义为牧人。2.同位法。如:
27、They traveled a long way and at last got to a castle,a large building in old times.同位语部分a large building in old times 给出了 castle 的确切词义,即城堡。We are on the night shiftfrom midnight to 8 A. m.this week.两个破折号之间的短语很清楚地表明night shift 是夜班的意思。3.对比法。如:She is usually prompt for all her class,but today she arriv
28、ed in the middle of her first class.but一词表转折,因此but 前后的意思正相反。后半句的意思是她今天第一节上了一半才来,因此反向推理,可得出她平时一向准时的结论。4.构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)。如:Perhaps, we can see some possibilities for next fifty years.But the next hundred?possibility 是 possible的同根名词,据此可以判断定possibility 意思是可能性。5.因果法。如:The lack of movement caused the mu
29、scles to weaken. Sometimes the weakness was permanent. So the player could never play the sport again.从后面的结果永远不能再运动中,可以推测 permanent 的意思为永远的,永久。【解题技巧】高考阅读理解体裁纷繁多样,但每套试卷通常包含一到两篇记叙文。在所有的阅读体裁中,记叙文的难度相对是比较低的。如果掌握了阅读的技巧,多多实践,阅读能力就有可能大大提高。要熟练掌握记叙文的阅读技巧,了解记叙文的写作特点与命题特点也是有必要的。一、记叙文写作特点记叙文是一种记载和叙述事件由来,描绘事物和人物
30、情景状态、过程及发展的文体。消息、通讯、传记、游记、小说、童话、寓言以及记叙性的散文等文体,都属于记叙文的范畴。 就写作顺序而言,记叙文要么是按时间顺序,要么是按事件的重要性的顺序来展开。不管是哪种叙述方法,最后经常会有一两句话抒发作者的情绪与感悟,这是记叙文的精华所在,也是阅读的难点所在,可谓一篇之妙,在于落句。二、记叙文命题特点从命题形式上看,常见的有细节理解、词义猜测、主旨大意、推理判断、作者意图等题型。除了推论或词义辨识题,记叙文命题的顺序一般都会按照文章的脉络和故事发展的顺序层层推进,否则就会觉得别扭,逻辑不通。同时,记叙文需要事件的发展过程作支撑,一半以上的题目都会用来检测考生对故
31、事的了解,因此,我们必须弄明白整件事情的发展脉络。而其余像主旨大意、作者意图之类的题目,则取决于文章的落句,集中考查对作者所发的感触的理解。总之,细节题是记叙文命题的主流题型。而寓意之类的题则是高一层次的题,有一定的难度和区分度,它们是拉开距离的题,答对了这些题,你才有可能成功地跻身高分之列。综上所述,记叙文的应对策略即:不漏细节,奠定基础;把准寓意,方能成功。三、记叙文答题技巧一把钥匙开一把锁。要解答好记叙文阅读理解题,就应该有一套针对性强的方法和技巧。下面是我们在阅读教学中积累下来的一点心得体会,希望能对大家有所帮助。No.1 顺藤摸瓜 记叙文中有大量的事件发展过程中的细节,包括记叙文的5
32、W(what, who, when, where, why)要素。因此我们作答细节题的时候,就没有那么复杂,一般只需要由前到后,从上到下,一题一题地做就可以了。No.2 左顾右盼 在做题过程中,我们大都不能在文中找到与题干一字不差的词语或句子。这时我们需要认真研究问题,抓住题干中的关键词语,然后到文中准确地找到与之相关的语句,或是疑似语句的位置,接着去左顾,或右盼,在前句或后句寻找线索。No.3 刨根问底 如前所述,主旨大意题或推理判断、作者意图题等实际上是同一类型的问题,或者说是可用同种方法解答的题型。在解答此类题目的时候,不可被题干的表象所迷惑,要像剥洋葱一样,一层一层地剥;在四个可选项中
33、,一个一个地去证实,去排除。特别是解答推论或暗指类的题目,比如What can be inferred from ?或是What does the author imply in?之类的题目,文中所陈述的往往不是答案。我们要在文前文后去查找,在字里行间里去寻觅。有时还少不了借助自己的生活经验和常理来体会这言外之意。No.4 拨云见日 每年的高考阅读题中,特别是记叙文的阅读题,都会出现一至两道词义猜测题。而这些词汇往往是你素昧平生的,或者和你有点头之交,在文中却另有新意的,总之,猜的是那些在高考词汇表要求之外的词汇。小小的一个词,一个短语,考核的不是你的语法的熟练程度,也不是你的记忆力,而是你对
34、文章通篇或者一个段落的整体把握和变通能力。 这时,你不仅需要左顾右盼,还需要在几句话,一个段落,乃至整篇文章的字里行间中快速搜寻,看看前面、后面都发生了些什么;反复琢磨人物、事物,或者人物与事物之间的内在联系,才可能在最后拨开团团迷雾,从四个选项中选出正确答案。题组一(2020年高考真题)Passage1(2020年浙江卷(1月),B) I never knew anyone whod grown up in Jackson without being afraid of Mrs. Calloway our librarian.

Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your

60、 into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn sons back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages(绷带).“There were rolling hills of snow, a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom, she recalled. It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had t
61、aken the time to do that for my family. It was a moment Ill never forget.”Susan soon learned the artist was her sons surgeon, Robert Parry, who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid-1980 s during his internship(实习期)at childrens medical center. where he saw one of his colleagues cut out
62、heart and shark shapes to decorate childrens bandages.“My first reaction was, What is he doing? Hey, thats kind of neat, ” Parry recalled. “I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyones attention from the surgery. Then I decided
63、 to follow suit.” Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isnt much he hasnt drawn. Most kids want superheroes sports team logos or p

This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.”For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a childs life, and except for his drawings on bandages, they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it.” he said.

74、 a student who is learning English as their new language,to feel confident enough to say,I dont know,but I want to know.”Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president.

78、019全国新课标卷II,B)“You can use me as a last resort(选择), and if nobody else volunteers,then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids lacrosse(长曲棍球)club.I guess that theres probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around ste
79、pping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids arent even on At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alr
80、ight. Yes, Ill do it.”Im secretly relieved because I know theres real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an i
81、nvaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of rel
82、ief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community(社区)as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy.

104、ng Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His
105、office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园) of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.

Many visitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and
106、abundant building types. The curves(曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. Thi

Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, th

109、also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created, he said.Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are, said Wang.The

The steam-powered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy(识字) rate in Engl

Many works of fiction appeared without the names of the authors, often with something like “By a lady.”Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral or just plain bad.In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher,
133、famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim were held up as moral touchstones.

If she thought you were dressed improperly, she sent you straight back home to change your clothes.(到处都挂着牌子,上面用黑色的大字写着“肃静”。如果她认为你穿得不合适,她会直接让你回家换衣服)可知Mrs. Calloway很严格。故选B。22词义猜测题。根据下文Now, I think of her as reading so much of the time while doing something else.(现在,我觉得她在做其他事情的同时,也在阅读)可
172、知作者的妈妈也非常喜欢阅读,故作者的母亲渴望读书和作者是一样的。故划线短语意思为“渴望读书”。故选A。23推理判断题。结合文章主要内容可知,作者非常喜爱阅读,并保持着在图书馆中阅读和借阅书籍的习惯,而作者的母亲也和作者一样渴望读书。故可推测文章可能来自于一份自传。故选B。Passage2(2019全国山东新高考,C)【答案】8B9D10B11A【解析】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了Bissell写的追逐大海:迷失在中亚帝国的幽灵这本书。这本书是Bissell在乌兹别克斯坦做志愿者后写的,是对乌兹别克斯坦人生活的一个快速观察。8细节理解题。根据第一段的”A few years later, still
173、 attracted to the country. he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Ara Sea”可知,几年后,Bissell仍然被这个国家所吸引。他回到乌兹别克斯坦写了一篇关于咸海消失的文章。因此推断出对这个国家的兴趣让Bissell先生再次返回乌兹别克斯坦。故选B。9词句猜测题。划线句是第二段首句,that用来指代上文提的事情,因此推断that指代写了一篇关于咸海消失的文章这件事,根据第一段最后一句”A few years later, still attracte
174、d to the country, he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea(几年后,仍然被这个国家所吸引。他回到乌兹别克斯坦写了一篇关于咸海消失的文章)”可知,that指代写了一篇关于死海消失的文章这件事,故选D。10推理判断题。根据第三段”This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan, made of friendliness and warmth, but also its darker side of society.
175、 In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders, while on his way to Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends a mountain funeral(葬礼)followed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is saddened by the dust storms, dis
176、eases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea.”可知,在乌兹别克斯坦的旅途中,Mr Bissell既体会到了友善和温暖,也看到了社会的黑暗面。在撒马尔罕,Mr Bissell欣赏到了的建筑奇观。在前往布哈拉的路上,他因为被怀疑进行毒品交易,他尝到了警察的伎俩。在费尔干纳,他参加了一个山区葬礼,然后参加了一个奇怪的酒会。在卡拉卡尔帕克斯坦,他为沙尘暴、疾病和被困在数英里外的渔船而难过。由此可知,在旅途中,他经历了很多事情。结合选项,B选项(充满事件的,多事的)可以表达此意。故选B。11推理判断题。文章第一段提到书的作者的乌兹别克斯坦之行,引出他
177、写的书,接下来三段讲述了他的书追逐大海:迷失在中亚帝国的幽灵的故事内容,是乌兹别克斯坦生活的一个快速观察。因此推断本文的写作目的是介绍一本书。故选A。Passage3(2019天津卷7月,B)【答案】41. B42. D43. C44. D45.
