8、位法”,即“带着问题找答案”的方法,通过定位找题点。先从题干中提取关键性词语(题眼),然后以此为线索,运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的段落、语句,快速定位该题与哪一段哪一句有关,然后仔细推敲,仔细比较所给选项与文中细节的细微区别,在准确理解细节的前提下,最后确定答案。 【命题热点突破二】语义转换题根据近几年的高考题来看,高考细节理解题的答案的得出通常需要考生对选项进行一定的处理,即需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语意上的转换,两者存在表达上的差异,有时需要进行加工或整理方能得出结论。(2015高考全国卷,阅读理解B,节选)Disappointed by many a brok
9、en,vineripened(蔓上成熟的) promise,Ive refused to buy winter tomatoes for years.No matter how attractive they look in the store,once I get them home theyre unfailingly dry,hard,and tasteless.But I homed in,with uncertainty,on one particular table at the Browns Grove Farms stand,full of fresh and soft tom

11、BThey look nice.CThey taste great. DThey are juicy.【特别提醒】语义转换题属于中档难度题,分数比例较大。命题者在出此类题时惯用“偷梁换柱、张冠李戴”的方法来迷惑考生,即对原句细微处做改动,截取原文词语或结构进行改造,因果倒置,把A观点说成B观点等。所以正确理解题干和信息句的意义是解题的关键。常见干扰项的特点:(1)将原文内容扩大或缩小。把原文中的限定词去掉或替换,使该选项看似正确,实际上却是错误选项。(2)无中生有。即选项内容是根据主观想象或推测得出结论,而文中并未涉及。(3)偷换概念。把原来做该事的“张三”换成“李四”,而所述细节却与原文一致
12、,一不小心就会误选。(4)文不对题。这类选项最不容易辨别,选项中的描述与原文完全一致,确实属于原文中的一个细节,这时要回到题干,看该选项是否能回答题干所提的问题。(5)符合常识,但不是文章内容。(6)部分正确,部分错误。【命题热点突破三】细节推断题细节推断题是推理判断题中比较简单的一类试题,它要求考生根据语篇中具体的内容和信息点,推断出文章中具体的细节,如时间、地点、人物关系、人物身份、事件等。解答此类试题时,一般可根据短文所提供的信息或者借助生活常识进行推理判断。考生只要正确把握文章的内在关系,理解文章的真正含义,就可作出准确的推断。 (2015高考天津卷,阅读理解C,节选)I never

CThe authors mother rewarded him with books. DThe author has had happy summers ever since. 【特别提醒】对于细节推断题来说,根据文章中的关键信息
15、点进行推断是解答此类试题的关键。考生不但要理解文章的字面含义,还要运用逻辑判断能力,推断出文章更深层的含义。同时还要根据文章内容进行推断,不能凭空猜测。考生要注意站在文章作者或文中人物的立场上,设身处地地考虑实际情景,并据此展开合理的想象和推理。主观臆断是许多考生做这类题时普遍存在的一个问题。【命题热点突破四】 作者态度或观点的推断该类型题目考查考生是否了解文中作者或文中人物对某事物所持的观点或态度。要求考生具有在正确理解文意的基础上,对观点或态度倾向进行分析、识别的能力。该类型题目的选项一般含有以下三类词:中性词:uninterested(不感兴趣的),neutral(中立的),indiff
16、erent(漠不关心的)等;褒义词:positive(积极的),supportive(支持的),humorous(滑稽有趣的),enthusiastic(热情的),admiring(赞赏的)等;贬义词:disgusted(厌恶的),critical(批评的),negative(否定的,消极的),disappointed(失望的)等。(2015高考湖北卷,阅读理解E,节选)On the whole,Brookss story is acceptable if uninspired.As one would expect,his writing is mostly clear and,to be

18、s attempt to translate his tale into science.69What is the authors general attitude towards the book? _ AContradictory. BSupportive. CCautious. DCritical. 【特别提醒】 如何解答“心思难猜”的观点态度类推理判断题? 1一般来说,作者对某一事物的态度往往较为明确,要么支持,要么反对,带中立色彩的词语通常是错误选项,作 者 既 然写文章就不会不关心; 2正确把握文章字里行间的意思,切勿用自己的观点代替作者的观点; 3因为作者往往不直接提出自己的态
19、度或立场,而且作者写作时也常带有某种倾向性,所以,考生在读文章时要细心 捕捉表达或暗示情感态度的词语,捕捉那些烘托气氛、表达 情感的语句。 4要学会区分不同的观点,尤其要善于找出作者的观点。 考生要注意文中出现的直接引语和间接引语,出现的观点一般是当事人的观点,而不是作者的观点。作者的观点一般用in my view,in my opinion,personally, I think,I hold 等引出。 【命题热点突破五】单词或短语意思猜测题该题型着重考查考生根据上下文猜测词义的能力,这也是一个从“已知”得出“未知”的过程,即利用上下文的已知部分(尤其是该词或短语前后的句子)进行推理,有时还
20、需要依靠常识和经验来猜测词义。考查范围涉及对某个生词或短语的含义的猜测、对某个熟词进行生义的猜测或考查该词能被哪个单词或短语代替等。(2015高考北京卷,阅读理解C,节选)The objects around you are visible because they interact with light.Light typically travels in a straight line.But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light,bouncing it away from its original path.Others absorb lig
21、ht,stopping it dead in its tracks.Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it,so you can see it easily.64The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means _ Asilently Bgradually Cregularly Dcompletely 【特别提醒】 对于此类题目我们可以借助下面这些方法来答题:(1)“拆 猜”并用来解决问题:阅读中常常会遇到一些
22、由熟悉的单词派生或合成的新词。此时可以用“拆猜”的方式,先把该词的各种词缀或前后两个合成部分拆开,再结合我们掌握的构词法知识,根据中心词的含义和词缀的含义猜测其意思。(2)根据定义或解释猜词:如果生词后有一个句子(定语从句或同位语从句)或段落来对其下定义,或使用破折号、冒号、分号后的内容和引号、括号中的内容加以解释和定义,那么理解这个句子或段落就可以推断词义。 (3)根据同义词和反义词猜词:在单词所出现的上下文中,有时会出现与之同义或反义的词语或结构,这时考生可从熟悉的词语中推测其含义。(4)根据因果关系进行猜词:该方法是根据前后的因果关系来推断某个生词或短语的意思。可由表示原因的句意推测出表
23、示结果的句子中的某个生词或短语的意思;也可由表示结果的句意推测出表示原因的句子中的某个生词或短语的意思。(5)根据语义转折猜词:有时作者为了增强表达效果,在文章中会用一些表示转折意思的连词、副词或短语,如: though,although,but,yet,instead, however,while,rather than 等,考生可以根据转折的语境猜测词义。 【命题热点突破六】 代词指代题代词指代题要求考生依据语境的逻辑关系,判断画线的人称代词或指示代词在文章中指代的对象,包括考查it(指动物、无生命的事物、特定的事件或人),they/them(指代人、物、事件的复数名词),he/she等人
24、称代词的指代意义,以及指示代词this,that,these,those 等在文章中的指代意义,以考查考生对文章中叙述的特定的人、物、事件的再认能力。(2015高考重庆卷,阅读理解D,节选)Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure,providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta.The camps have excellent horses,professional guides and lots of support workers
25、.They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.48What does the underlined word “They” refer to?_AFlooded waters. BWildlife journeys.CSafari camps. DUnique rides.【特别提醒】解答代词指代题时,我们要认真阅读画线词所在句和前后邻近句的内容,分析人称转换和动作变换的详细过程,理清其来龙去脉和前后的因果关系,从而准确推断其指代的对象。因此,理解上下文(特别是上句)的意思和代词所在句的意思是解题的关键。【命题热
26、点突破七】 段落大意题段落大意是指一篇文章各个段落的主要意思,是对一个段落的基本内容的简缩和初步的概括。概括段落大意时,一定要在把握全段或全文中心的基础上进行,做到围绕中心,注意连贯,同时,还要注意段落大意是否与全篇相称。段落大意要用明确、完整、简洁的语句表达。(2015高考福建卷,阅读理解E,节选)Group exercise is one of the most effective ways to improve physical fitness and sustain(保持)a healthy lifestyle.Group exercise is challenging,yet fun

30、用“特殊一般特殊”的方式来写,主题句可能出现在段落的中间。有时,文章中没有明显的主题句,考生要学会根据段落的内容概括出主题句。【命题热点突破八】文章大意题文章的主旨是通过段落来表达的,而段落的大意主要由主题句来体现,所以段落的主题句是构成文章中心思想的有机组成部分。因此,识别各段落的主题句并由此归纳出文章的中心思想是解答该类题的关键。快速阅读文章找出各个段落的主题句,把各个段落的主题句联系起来并着眼全文结构安排,就能概括出文章的中心。(2015高考重庆卷,阅读理解A,节选)At thirteen,I was diagnosed(诊断) with a kind of attention diso

36、students. COne can find his way out of difficulties with efforts. DEveryone needs a hand when faced with challenges. 【特别提醒】考生在解答文章主旨大意类试题时,常会出现看懂文章却做错题这一现象。因为考生在选择文章主旨大意时,常会犯以偏概全的错误。要避免出现这种错误,考生首先要明白自己懂的是全文的中心思想还是细节,懂的是全部词汇的字面意思还是其蕴含的意义;然后以“三主一问”作为解题思路。“三主”指文章的主题思想、文章的结构主线和关键句的主谓结构。“一问”指根据文章后面所设的问题来
37、发问:此题的考查点是什么?考生一定要读懂题干,这样在阅读文章时才能站得高,看得远,从而知全局。【命题热点突破九】标题归纳题标题是文章中心思想的精炼表达形式。文章标题既考查考生把握全文主题和理解中心思想的能力,又要求考生在理解全文的基础上能较好地运用概括、归纳、判断等逻辑思维方法对文章的主题和中心进行高度的概括或提炼,并迅速而准确地选择文章的标题。考生在做标题归纳类试题时要注意标题的三个特性,即醒目性、概括性和针对性。 (2015高考全国卷,阅读理解B,节选)Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you
