18、imself_as_to_get_the_prize. 阅读理解解题技巧如果问的内容是用数字表示的事实或细节，如：时间、价格、次数、人数、增长或减少的幅度、比例等，往往要经过计算后才能得出答案。所以，不要轻易用文中直接出现的数字作答，因为直接出现的某一数字往往只是依据之一，要把所有数字都找出来，确定每个数字之间的关系，经过思考换算，最后作出选择。【例】In Western countries people have been using the installment(分期付款) plan since the first half of the twentieth century.Today,
