高考英语阅读理解综述与启示

文/ 高亮

阅读是外语学习者接触目标语言最直接最便利的途径之一,是提高自身语言水平的重要手段,所以是英语教学的一大重点。在各级各类的语言水平测试中,阅读都是不可或缺的重要组成部分。在高考英语试卷中,阅读理解题型所占的分数最多,历来是教研老师和备考学生最为关注的环节。此部分的得分直接决定了整个试卷的分数层次,可谓“得阅读者得天下”。

●2006年阅读分析

通过分析2006年的各套高考阅读理解题,我们可从中总结出以下几点共性:

一、总体评价

难度上,与往年相比,各套卷子中阅读题型的总体难度有不小的下降,直接导致平均分数的上升。事实上,在今年六月份的新旧两种题型的大学四级英语考试中,也体现了这种变化趋势:老题型卷比以前难度下降,首次面世的新题型卷也比原先颁布的样卷难度低很多。而大学英语四六级考试一直是高考改革的风向标,这种趋势值得重视。

一方面,作为高中教学指挥棒的高考加重对基础知识、基本能力的考查,不追求偏、难、怪题,起到了很好的教学导向性作用,有利于减轻中学生的课业负担和学习压力;另一方面,由于难度下降,对于高分阶段的优秀生和中等生的区分度不高,要想在此部分取得一个比较理想的成绩,必须提高水平,体现出并巩固相对优势才能立于不败之地。

二、词汇量

词汇量的变化,历来是英语高考改革的一个焦点,而这一变化主要体现在阅读部分。今年教育部颁发的考试大纲依据仍然是2000年教学大纲,要求的词汇量是2000,与去年持平。但是本年参加高考的同学是第一届使用新课程标准教材的毕业生,课堂教学的单词量有了明显提高,而这种变化多多少少都会影响高考试题。既然数量上的变化不适宜体现在试卷中,则可能对词汇运用质量上的要求就会提高。具体到阅读题目中,就会以增加文章的字数,加大考生的单位时间信息处理量的方法来体现这种变化。

另外,作为国家高中教学纲领性文件的《新课程标准》要求高中学生词汇量达到3500左右,这一目标理应成为全国以及各独立命题的省、市高考词汇量的标准。在此前提下,北京、天津、广东、湖北等地在自己单独的高考考试说明中也在不断扩大词汇量,甚至今年有些省市比如湖南就直接明确提出词汇范围参照《新课程标准》。由于考试要为教学服务,伴随着基础教育中英语教学水平的不断提高,高考的词汇量从数量和质量两个方面必定要不断增加,不断向《新课标》靠拢。

二、文章特点

从所选语篇的题材和体裁来看,各地高考卷阅读部分都呈现出高度的多样化。记叙、说明、议论和应用四大类体裁在各套试卷中都有专门的考查;各种社会热点话题,例如环境保护、老龄化、宠物、友谊、心理问题等话题也作为常见题材经常出现在阅读中。例如全国不含听力卷:陈述Emma在以色列短暂停留时发生的故事(A篇),简单罗列“历史上的今天”(B篇),女儿通过教母亲学习电脑知识获取一些快乐时光(C篇),当友谊面临阻碍时该怎样去维护和修复(D 篇),大学教授针对世界自由贸易市场的观点和立场(E篇)。再如全国含听力卷:关于灰狗的说明文(A篇),一次汽车故障引出对于“感谢”的思考(B篇),英语学习中遇到的困难和学习动

机的重要性(C篇),作者丰富多彩的退休生活(D篇),企鹅观赏的广告(E篇)。再如北京卷:利用预算表理财(A篇),父亲的AIDS生活(B篇),对乞丐乞讨的想法和态度(C篇),母婴关系的疏离方案(D篇)以及通过调整记忆来影响饮食习惯(E篇)。

三、题目分析

总的来说,各套题目中呈现出这样的趋势:细节类题目数量不断下降,回到文章简单进行信息寻找和对比对照已经成为了最基础的要求,单做到这一点还远远不够。推理类题目数量开始上升,例如全国不含听力卷(8个),重庆卷(6个),江西卷(9个),江苏卷(8个)。

推理题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,做出一定判断和推论,从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。故这类试题的答案不应该是短文内容的简单再现或重述,而应该是作者的言外之意弦外之音。推理题大多会问及文章的暗示、推论、结论、人物的身份和关系、作者的观点、态度和语气等。这类试题,除了需要精确透彻地理解短文、理顺文章的脉络外,还要求考生有一定的思考提炼和逻辑推理的能力。该题型在高考阅读理解测试部分中难度较大、要求较高,是要取得高分必须攻破的一道难关。

四、特殊情况

除了上面的这些共同特点,今年的高考完形也出现了一些特殊的情况。

1、北京卷的A篇和C篇中出现了三处斜体字。通常在高考英语阅读文章中,只有当表示媒体(例如2002年北京卷的D篇)或者书名的时候才对该专有名词进行斜体化处理,而今年这三处斜体都不是什么专有名词,都是为了强调所在处的关键信息而变化的。例如A篇中,对第五段中的wish做了斜体的处理,而如果注意到这一点,会对文后58题的选择做出决定性的帮助。

2、重庆卷E篇的75题“What will the author most probably talk about next?”,这是一个在高层次语言测试(例如托福考试)中较常见,而在高中较少出现的“下文延续题”。体现了高考英语从单纯考查语言知识和能力,开始涉及到文章结构和逻辑思维层面。北京卷C篇66题对作者在文中第二段的行文方式发问:通过提问、举例子、设问还是直叙?阅读理解后面的问题向来都注重考察考生对文章内容的理解和领悟,而此题则要求考生关注文章中具体的语言形式。形式为内容服务,不同的行文风格有不同的叙述效果,考生应对此加以注意。

●对应策略

针对以上分析,为了在明年高考中获得高分,在未来的高三备考过程中,同学们必须做到“奇文共欣赏,疑义相与析。”的精读和“泛览周王传,流观山海图。”的泛读相结合。精读的目的在于提高理解率。通过精读一字一句精耕细作,我们可以掌握常用词汇、基本语法以及文章的固定套路和英语的思维方式,就像修炼内功真气。泛读的目的在于提高阅读速度。通过泛读一目十行博览天下,我们能够充分积累语言经验,多接触真实世界中各方各面的语言材料,就像见识外家套路。而这两种训练都在以后的阅读过程中都可以发生正向迁移,作用于新的阅读材料。双管齐下才能真正修炼提高自己的阅读能力,在高考中立于不败之地。

一、反复精读

笔者在新东方的课堂上,经常说要“反复精读已经读过的文章”。很多同学做了什么38套题、45套题,各个击破,轻巧夺冠……恨不得把市面上的阅读书全部都打穿,但是自己的能力并没有得到相应的提高。曾经有这样的同学来问我,我反问他的做题方式,他说就是阅读文章做题目然后对答案,对了挺高兴的,错了把答案改做来。我听了以后马上就知道他不长进的根源所在了。对的是你已经掌握了的,你即使不进行练习碰到了肯定还是能正确解出;而错的题目,仅仅把A

改成C是远远不够的。之所以做了很多阅读没有提高,原因就在于没有充分重视错题。做错了的题正是知识的薄弱点,是急需更正提高的地方。匆匆放过如何能使自己快速进步?虽然说做题是体力活,但是如果多用脑子,多思考多总结就会有突飞猛进的提高。提高考试阅读成绩的秘诀就在于“反复精读已经读过的文章”,只有耐下性子来回头再看已经读过的文章,这样才能看到更多的上下文之间的关系,而这些上下文的关系是提高阅读速度和理解率的关键,也就是帮助我们理解文章的关键。

二、广泛阅读

《新课标》要求高中三年平均每年的英文课外阅读量要达到30万字,折合成300字左右的阅读理解题就是1000篇左右。不过据调查,可以说很少有同学能够真正达到这个要求。语言是一种需要习得的技能,而非一种单靠归纳演绎就能够掌握的知识。现在高考不断转向真实世界,重视真实语言材料的趋势和多样化的选文策略,直接决定了未来的高考考生在复习备考过程中,必然不能拘泥于各种课本和练习题,应该广泛接触各种语言材料。不要一提到阅读,脑海里就是一堆一堆的阅读理解题,要增加各种形式的真实语言材料的输入量,在实践中不断进步。

泛读的材料有很多,第一推荐的就是我们的教材,我们的高中课本。很多同学一说起看课本就跟让他喝中药似的。认为上课时老师把每一课都掰开了揉烂了讲得不能再细了,还有什么看头。但是,老师讲过不代表你就能掌握,表面掌握不代表你认识到课本的价值。例如高三的课本,把中学所有学过的语法点都在一册的12篇课文中有机地串了起来,把课本中出现的语法点都认真摸清搞透,也就能达到教学大纲和考试大纲的要求了,所以说精心编写的课本是泛读的最好材料。重视课本是一种省时省力的修炼途径,如果高三的时候能够从头到尾把所有的高中课本大声读过三五遍,自然会有突飞猛进的提高。尤其是对那些成绩不是很理想(80分以下的)的同学,重视课本反复朗读,提高二三十分问题不大。

三、研究题目

考试意义上的阅读理解不同于一般获取信息的阅读,它是一种定向理解,即要求考生在阅读短文后回答命题人设计的理解题,与考题无关的内容则可以不理解,理解正确率及能力强弱通过答题正确率鉴定。分析文章时,我们能看到文章是一个有主有次的有机整体,中心思想和细节信息,主题句和支持句构成了一篇结构严谨的文章,其实文章后面的题目又何尝不是如此呢。高考英语“阅读理解”题目的题干所涉及的多是文章的重要内容,几个小题的题干组合在一起基本上就是文章的提纲。

通常来说,高考阅读题目分为细节、主旨、推理和词汇题四大类,实际上是与《新课标》中对于阅读的六种具体能力相对应的。在一篇具体的文章后面,各种题型都会有所涉及,如果仔细研究各个题目之间的关系,就会对我们解题形成很好的启示作用。例如,我们在做题的时候,如果先把主旨题解决掉,就可以在剩下的细节题中紧密把握住文章主旨。之所以考这个细节而不是那个,就是因为此细节是重要信息,关乎文章的主旨,那我们在做题的时候要重视题目之间的关系,抓住这种提示作用为我所用,利用出题时的一些规律来反其道而行之进行题目解决。只有把握命题人的命题意图,了解他出题时处理短文的深度和角度;站在命题人角度去分析阅读理解题题型,并掌握不同题型的特点及答题要求,才能成就一个高分来。

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇 (名师传授解题技巧+实战练习,值得下载) 一、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。

(英语)高三英语阅读理解解析版汇编 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 In America, parents tend to encourage their children to develop their potential (潜能) to the fullest extent. Fathers and mothers frequently teach their children both ambition and the confidence necessary to work toward their goals. American parents are always active in concentrating on what their kids can do, not what they can't. As a result, millions of American boys and girls grow up hoping to become actors and athletes, diplomats and doctors. Many of them even want to become president. American parents often encourage their children to become involved in extra activities of all types at school, such as student government, sports and music. They believe that only through taking part in these activities can their children become mature young adults. As we all know, school work is important. But parents should realize that the social skills their children learn from natural conversations with each other are as important as schoolwork and the skills they will need in the future work. What's more important in their work is that their children should have a sound knowledge of physics or the ability to communicate effectively. As a rule, Chinese parents don't educate their children about the same kind of ambition and confidence as Americans do, nor do they encourage the same level of participation in extra activities. Children are typically advised to study hard and pass exams. They have to spend a lot of time in doing much schoolwork every day. It is a great waste of time to do so. Now more and more Chinese parents have recognized that they should pay attention to developing the potential of their children. I hope that leaders in Chinese educational circles should take some measures to develop the potential of their children. I am very confident about it. (1)From the passage, we know the American parents pay much more attention to . A. the social skills than Chinese parents B. their children's studying hard and well C. what their children want but they can't D. extra activities than schoolwork (2)According to the passage, Chinese parents . A. know more than American parents to educate their children B. owning ambition and confidence is necessary and important C. pay much more attention to their children's fine future D. don't encourage their children to participate in extra activities (3)From the passage, we can infer . A. American children are brave and adventurous B. American children are more active in their studies C. Chinese children have the ability to communicate effectively D. something should be done to develop the potential of the children in China (4)What's the writer's attitude towards Chinese education reform? A. Neutral. B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Negative. 【答案】(1)A

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案)

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案) 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Mexico sites on an island plateau (高原) surrounded by volcanic peaks, which makes air quality a constant concern for people who live there. In April, the country took a decisive step toward improving air quality by enacting a temporary ban on private and Federal vehicles in the city. The rule forbids people from driving in the city one day each week and one Saturday each month. Electric vehicles, government service vehicles, public transport options and school buses are not included in the ban. Mexico City isn't the first urban center to be involved in car-free living. But the ban is more than an awareness-raiser. It was enacted with the direct aim of solving air pollution. In March, the city sank into a deep brown haze of smog when the pollution levels passed the 200 mark. The city ordered some 1.1m of the area's 4.7m cars off the streets and also offered free bus and subway rides. Mexico City's temporary vehicle ban raises questions about the best ways to improve urban air quality. India, whose citizens breathe some of the world's dirtiest air, has tried a variety of solutions. Earlier this year, the Indian government started a 4% sales tax on new-car purchases. Beijing also has experience with cleaning the air. The city introduced alternate-day rules in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games, which produced good results. And then there is the London congestion (拥挤) charge, introduced in 2003. The charge has had a measurable effect on air quality. For now, Mexico City — named by the United Nations as the most polluted city on the planet in 1992 — can look forward to the start of the region's rainy season, when daily showers will help lo clean the air. (1)How did Mexico ban vehicles in the city? A. By banning private and Federal vehicles one day a week. B. By forbidding private and public vehicles every Saturday. C. By limiting the number of new cars. D. By prohibiting the vehicles except public ones.(2)What did the government of Mexico do when carrying out the ban on vehicles? A. Raised the number of public vehicles. B. Offered free bus and subway rides. C. Introduced more travel options. D. Encouraged citizens to leave the city. (3)What may contribute to improving the air quality in Mexico? A. Alternate-day rules. B. Tax rises. C. Congestion charge. D. The rainy season.(4)What's the best title for the passage? A. Mexico —an Island Plateau B. A Variety of Bans on Vehicles in Mexico C. Should Cities Be Car-free Zones D. How to Improve Air Quality 【答案】(1)A (2)B (3)D (4)C

高三英语阅读理解(带详解)

I watched from a distance as the homeless man quarreled with those who did not leave money for him – the majority. I walked up to him and right on queue he asked me for a quarter. ―I’ll give you a quarter if you tell me your story.‖ He laughed, ―You’ll give me a quarter for my story?‖ I lay the quarter in front of him and corrected myself –―Nah, here’s the quarter but it would be nice to hear your story.‖ I followed his eyes to the quarter and for a brief moment I saw a glimmer of reflection. I sat down next to him and waited. ―I was in the army,‖ he said. ―I was a sniper(狙击手)and was supposed to shoot down the enemy from the distance.‖ I listened carefully to his grizzly voice as he went deeper into the story. He wore dirty old torn clothes and smelled like a dead rat left in a mouse trap. He told me how he used to hunt with his family and was really good at it. He had his own way of respecting animals by not wasting what he killed for food and not killing more than he needed. When the army came knocking on his door, he felt pride and joined up. All those years of polishing his hunting skills could now serve a larger purpose—to defend us from the bad guys. He set out to fight in Iraq. It wasn’t long before he realized his ideals and expectations were just a shadow of the truth. He became disillusioned with the killings, which he felt were of innocent people. ―I was a sniper but I never really killed anyone,‖ he said. ―One day I had to do it. They asked me to shoot this lady from the distance. I saw kids near that lady and my hands were on the trigger (扳机). Man, I was tearing up ... I couldn’t do it. She wasn’t doing anything to anyone and she was with the kids—I couldn’t see through my tears. It just didn’t make any sense to me.‖ The story goes on as he describes eventually being put into prison for 180 days for refusing to follow orders. He told me how he was black listed so that he couldn’t get a job. All the rights we take for granted were taken away from him. Why? Here was a man who was being punished—and for what? For refusing to kill the lady? For being a hero? ―I have no regrets,‖ the homeless man said. ―I may be homeless now, but I never killed that lady. I never killed anyone in the army. It didn’t feel right. I didn’t go there to do that. I went there to save people.‖ He continued, ―I can live with being homeless—that’s okay. But I wouldn’t be able to live with killing innocent people.‖ On that lonely Friday night, I met a hero. It just never occurred to me that a hero could be a smelly old man left on streets. 1. It can be learned from the passage that the homeless man_______. () A. never killed animals B. had a strong respect for life C. deserved the punishment he received D. felt guilty about disobeying the order

(英语)高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 The setting was a packed gymnasium just before the start of a game against another school. There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach's decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little community that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year's holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn't back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach's decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they've learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one's action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life. (1)It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________. A. very good players on the team B. addicted to alcohol and drugs C. three junior students and two senior students D. scolded by their parents for drinking alcohol (2)What did the girls do to support their coach's decision? A. They didn't fight for Danville High School any more. B. They all gave speeches to apologize in the local press. C. They admitted their mistake in public in the gymnasium. D. They would never drink any alcohol throughout their life. (3)Which word best describes the coach Rainville? A. Indifferent. B. Strict. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel. (4)Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Growing up with pain B. A bad mistake C. Team rules are everything D. Basketball girls in high school 【答案】(1)A

新高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编(70)

2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编(70) 阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 “Experience may possibly be the best teacher,but it is not a particularly good teacher.” You might think that Winston Churchill or perhaps Mark Twain spoke those words,but they actually come from James March,a professor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organizational decision making. For years March(possibly the wisest philosopher of management)has studied how humans think and act,and he continues to do so in his new bookThe Ambiguities of Experience. He begins by reminding us of just how firmly we have been sticking to the idea of experiential learning:“Experience is respected;experience is sought;experience is explained.” The problem is that learning from experience involves(涉及)serious complications(复杂化),ones that are part of the nature of experience itself and which March discusses in the body of this book. In one interesting part of the book,for example,he turns a doubtful eye toward the use of stories as the most effective way of experiential learning. In our efforts to make stories interesting,he argues,we lose part of the complicated truth of things. He says “The more accurately(精确地)reality is presented,the less understandable the story,and the more understandable the stor y,the less realistic it is.” Besides being a broadly knowledgeable researcher,March is also a poet,and his gift shines through in the depth of views he offers and the simple language he uses. Though the book is short,it is demanding:Don’t pick it up lookin g for quick,easy lessons. Rather,be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life. 1. According to the text,James March is. A. a poet who uses experience in his writing B. a teacher who teaches story writing in university C. a researcher who studies the way humans think and act D. a professor who helps organizations make important decisions 2. According to James March,experience. A. is overvalued B. is easy to explain C. should be actively sought D. should be highly respected

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析

高考英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸,拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps,back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity.
