《湖北专用》2014高考英语二轮专题知识与增分策略:第二部分 阅读理解 主旨大意题.DOC

1、高考资源网() 您身边的高考专家考纲解读高中英语教学大纲明确规定“侧重提高阅读能力”,这为我们的备考指明了方向。分析近几年的高考英语试题,我们不难看出,阅读理解是高考试题中难度最大,区分度最高的题型,自始至终占据着主导地位。阅读理解能力属于语言的领会技能,它不仅考查对语篇的整体把握能力,而且考查快速捕捉信息、准确理解特定细节以及复杂句子的能力。不仅要准确理解文章表层的意思,还要通过表层去推理、判断。除此之外,还涉及非语言因素,如:对所学语言国家的社会和文化背景知识的掌握、生活常识、逻辑知识和语言修养等。考情分析纵观近几年各地英语试卷,阅读理解题有如下特点:1突出语用,体裁多样,题材丰富阅读理解

2、题体裁分布包括记叙文、说明文、应用文和议论文等,涉及的话题新颖广泛,体现了其多样化、现代化和生活化的特点,综合反映了政治、经济、文化和生活的各个方面,具有鲜明的英语语言文化特点,体现了“语言是文化的载体”这一重要理念。2信息密集,句子优美,结构复杂阅读理解题每篇都是以简约的语言负载高含量的信息,要求准确迅速地从特定的语篇中有目的地获取信息。阅读理解文章的句子原汁原味、语言地道、纯正优美,而且篇章结构和句子结构都有一定的难度。各篇或在时间顺序上,或在空间顺序上,或在逻辑推理上,均使用了较高级的组篇手段。结构复杂的长句、倒装句、省略句以及插入语等也随处可见。3细节为主,推理随后,主旨突出阅读理解题

3、型分布合理,以细节理解题和推理判断题为主,主旨大意题几乎每年都考。各个题型的分布已逐步成熟且趋于平稳。阅读理解分为五大题型:主旨大意题、细节理解题、推理判断题、词义猜测题和篇章结构题。考点1主旨大意之精确归纳标题真题解密Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They dont listen because they already know it all.I was lucky:I became a pilot in 1970,almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didnt

4、 realize then,but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger,faster planes,and in worse weather,I learned about crew resource management(机组资源管理),or CRM,a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result,regardless o

5、f positions.I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that,an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying;I was safety pilot.He was so busy because of the bad turn,he had forgotten to put the landi

6、ng gear(起落架) down.He was a better pilotand my bossso it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to:Our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put the landing gear down now!”That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM,and Ive used it in the operating room ever since.CRM

7、requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite,the doctor doesnt overreact,which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.So when Im in the operating room,I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes theyre

8、not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them,someday someone will keep me from “landing_gear_up”(2013新课标全国,A)36What does the author say about doctors in general?AThey like flying by themselves.BThey are unwilling to take advice.CThey pretend to be good pilots.DThey are qui

9、ck learners of CRM.答案B解析细节理解题。从文中第一段的第一、二句“Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They dont listen because they already know it all.”可知,作者认为医生一般都不愿意听取意见,所以答案为B项。37The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when_.Ahe saved the plane by speaking upBhe was in charge of a flying taskChis

10、 boss landed the plane too lateDhis boss operated on a patient答案A解析推理判断题。文中第二段首句提到“I first read about CRM in 1980.”这是作者首次接触CRM,此后不久,在一次飞行事故中,作者的老板在操作飞机降落时忘记把起落架放下来,这时作者主动向老板提出“我们现在需要把起落架放下来”,从而拯救了机组成员。其他选项均不符合题意。38In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means “_”Afollowing flying requiremen

11、tsBoverreacting to different opinionsClistening to what fellow doctors sayDmaking a mistake that may cost lives答案D解析词义猜测题。“landing gear”在文中给出了中文释义,意为“起落架”,“landing gear up”意为“把起落架收起来”,结合该词组在文中出现的语境,可以知道在飞机降落时把起落架收起来是有生命危险的,所以keep me from landing gear up意为“让我避免犯此类会带来生命危险的错误”。39Which of the following

12、can be the best title for the text?ACRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeBFlying Makes Me a Better DoctorCThe Making of a Good PilotDA PilotTurned Doctor答案B解析标题归纳题。文中第一段提到“.but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.”,在第二段中作者讲述了其在一起飞行事件中的经历和从中得到的教训,作者将这一经验应用到手术室中,从而使他成为一个更好的医生,所以B项正确。技巧归纳(1)利用主题段来概括

13、标题主题段一般在文章的第一段和最后一段,一般来说第一段经常提出文章的主题或最后一段总结文章的主题,知道了文章的主题也就知道了文章的中心,把中心概括成一句话或一个短语文章的标题。(2)利用主题句来概括标题解题的关键是要抓住每一段的首尾句,要注意贯穿文章始终的词语。通过寻找文章的主题句,并对主题句进行概括和提炼,从而确定文章的标题。做此类题时,要避免以下三种错误:(1)概括不够(多表现为部分替代整体,从而缩小了范围); (2)过度概括(多表现为人为扩大范围);(3)以事实、细节替代文章大意。趁热打铁Weve reached a strangesome would say unusualpoint.

14、While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO),more people now die from being overweight,or say,from being extremely fat,than from being underweight.Its the good life thats more likely to kill us these

16、oughup to a point.In the 1970s,Finland,for example,had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause.Not any more.A publichealth campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades.Maybe that explains why

17、 the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005,and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body.That has become a sort of fashion.No wonder it ranks as the worlds most bodyconscious country.We know what we should be doing to

18、 lose weightbut actually doing it is another matter.By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise.More than half of us admit we lack willpower.Others blame good food.They say:its just too inviting and it makes them overeat.Still others lay the blame on the Americans,complaining that p

21、ty.DOverweight issue remains unresolved despite WHOs efforts.答案A解析细节理解题。由第一段第二句的内容及最后一句话“Its the good life thats more likely to kill us these days.”可知,答案为A项。60Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight?AA lot of effective diet pills are available.BBody image has nothin

22、g to do with good food.CThey have been made fully aware of its dangers.DThere are too many overweight people in the world.答案C解析细节理解题。由第三段第二句“The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by publichealth campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting throughup to a point.”可知,人们自2001年以来就在公共健康运

23、动中认识到了这一问题的危险性,所以C项正确。 61The example of Finland is used to illustrate_.Athe cause of heart diseaseBthe fashion of body shapingCthe effectiveness of a campaignDthe history of a bodyconscious country答案C解析推理判断题。由第四段第三句话“A publichealth campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 8

24、0 per cent over the past three decades.”可知选C项。62Which would be the best title for the passage?AActions or Excuses?BOverweight or Underweight?CWHO in a DilemmaDNo Longer Dying of Hunger答案A解析标题归纳题。文章前三段引出超重的问题,最后四段分析了人们寻找各种不能减肥的借口,故最佳标题为A项,是采取行动还是找借口。活页练(十一)_多项选择完形填空阅读理解完成句子.多项选择1The_for the project i

26、n difference没有影响,无关紧要。3The minister said,“We are ready for discussions with any legal parties,but well never _ with criminals.”(2011湖北,27)Anegotiate BquarrelCargue Dconsult答案A解析句意为:首相说:“我们准备和任何合法政党展开讨论,但决不会与罪犯谈判。”negotiate谈判;quarrel争吵;argue辩论;consult咨询。根据句意知应选A项。4We are confident that the two countr

70、这就需要我们依据文中的事实、细节、观点去进行分析、推断和归纳,从而概括出文章大意。(2)在选择答案时,根据自己总结的大意,就可以用排除法将干扰项逐个排除。趁热打铁Weve considered several ways of paying to cut in line:hiring line standers,buying tickets from scalpers(票贩子),or purchasing linecutting privileges directly from,say,an airline or an amusement park.Each of these deals rep
