高中英语的学习是一个持之以恒的过程,需要很多的技巧并且要有大量的词汇积累。高中英语阅读理解题一直是很多学生心目中的拦路虎,阅读理解分值大,让学生不得不重视,但是学生对于阅读理解往往产生了各式各样的抵触心理,如觉得篇幅太长,太过于枯燥乏味,没有耐烦心静下来进行阅读,分析题目存在障碍等等这样那样的问题。改变英语阅读教学方式方法,让学生不再觉得阅读理解太过乏味,找准做题的关键是教学中提高阅读理解的首要目的。

一、课堂上多进行发散性阅读训练

这里提到的发散性英语阅读理解训练,是在于课堂上讲解时需要有着拓展教学的思维,在讲解一篇课文的时候,就要明确课文主题,试着带领学生找到关键词,是训练学生阅读理解能力的首要方法。如这样一篇的阅读文章,它的首段的句子是这样的Attitudes toward new technologies often fall along generational lines.This is,generally,younger people tend to outnumber older people on the front end of a technological shift.这个地方不难看出这篇文章讲解的是,关于年轻人和老年人有着不同的态度对待新的技艺的时候。通常,阻碍学生阅读的障碍就在于对单词不认识,怎样猜词,也是很重要的一点。

讲解文章的时候应当先讲些重点的,还有大家不能够熟悉流利答出来的单词,如这里的lines,这里就有很多意思,有站位、排队的各种意思,还有这里的shift,看似简单,实则很多学生不知道其意思,“转换、移动、换班制”。

这句话是这篇文章的首段,通常的文章采用总分总的逻辑关系进行写作,这篇也是类似的,首段句子总结了全文的大意,明确了大致的写作方向,教学阅读理解题目的时候,一定要强调学生应当重视首句和尾句,通常很多细节理解题都是出自这里的。

明确整篇阅读理解的主题,是训练阅读重要的一点。教师可以在让学生快速阅读文章,然后让学生进行整篇或者一段句子的大意总结,这样很快并且有效果地提高学生的总领能力,让学生能够迅速找到文章的中心思想。

高中英语阅读理解题型及解题技巧分析(可编辑修改word版)

高中英语阅读理解题型及解题技巧 CHN 纵观近几年的高考英语试题,我们不难看出,阅读理解能力是高考考查 的重点,自始至终占主导地位,并且有逐年增加的趋势。做好阅读理解,是 获得高考英语高分的关键。 阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是: 1.阅读材料,理解材料的主旨大意,以及用以说明主旨大意的事实和细 节。 2.既理解具体的事实,也理解抽象的概念。 3.既理解文章的字面意思,也理解深层含义,包括作者的态度、意图等。 4.既理解某句、某段的含义,也理解全篇的逻辑关系,并据此进行推理 和判断。 5.既能根据所提供的信息去理解,也能结合中学生应具有的常识去理解 判断。 根据这五项要求,我们可将阅读理解多项选择题归纳为以下几种题型: 主题主旨大意,细节理解题,综合推理题,概括归纳题,观点归纳题,人物 评价题,词义句义理解题,指代关系题,内容排序题等。下面结合自己平时教学中的经验体会,谈一谈做英语阅读理解题的技巧与策略。 一.主旨大意题-- 阅读理解首先要做到的就是掌握所读材料的主旨和大意,它是全文的概 括与总结。能否抓住这个中心,取决于读者的总结能力。每篇短文都有其主 题思想,而作者表现主题思想的手法各不相同。这就需要我们挖掘相同点, 寻找解题的方法--。 常见题型 1.主题型:What’s the main idea of this passage ? What does this passage mainly discuss? What’s the topic of this passage ? 2.标题型:What’s the best title? The best title for this text is (to tell ) . 3.目的型:The main purpose of this text is . The author’s purpose of writing this text is to . What’s the main purpose of the passage? 解题指导 1.抓住主题句。它们一般位于文章的开头或结尾。同时,也可以贯穿各 段中心句进行总结。 2.抓住文章逻辑线索,理清发展脉络。作者往往会采取举例、

提高高中生英语阅读能力的几点策略 摘要:提高英语阅读能力对高中生进一步学习和使用英语具有非常重要作用。文章分析了提高高中生英语阅读能力的重要性及其条件、高中生英语阅读能力提高的阻碍因素,进而提出了重视文化背景因素、积累阅读词汇量、采用“整体—局部—整体”的语篇阅读法、养成良好阅读习惯四点提高高中生英语阅读能力的策略。 关键词:提高高中生英语阅读能力策略 一、提高高中生英语阅读能力的重要性及其条件 (一)英语阅读能力及其重要性 阅读就是对书面信息进行认知构建的心理语言过程。英语阅读能力是通过阅读英语文献获得信息的一种能力,这种能力的培养与提高,有助于学生在迅速、准确地获取知识与信息时减少难度和障碍,同时还能促进其他方面如听、说、写能力发展。英语阅读能力的培养是高中英语教学中的核心内容之一。侧重提高阅读能力,为进一步学习和运用英语切实打好基础是中学英语课程标准的一项具体要求。 高中英语阅读内容涉及的体裁广泛,题材新奇。其中包括了英语国家的历史、地理、文化风俗和风土人情等方面的内容,融思想性、知识性和真实性为一体。由于学生的时间、能力和活动范围有限,在限时阅读中把握一些阅读技巧和技能,对提高阅读效果显得尤为重要。 (二)高中生提高英语阅读能力应具备的条件 1、背景知识 背景知识是理解特定语篇所具备的外部世界知识,它影响着阅读理解的准确性。背景知识对理解的影响力大于语言知识,背景知识的缺乏会造成阅读理解的障碍。因此,在阅读学习中,应了解文章的背景知识,结合自己所把握的语言知识,如词汇、语法功能和话题等进行阅读。有了运用背景知识阅读的能力,对所读的文章的思路把握就较为清楚,对文章的理解也更为准确、深刻。

高中英语阅读理解专项练习二(含答案)

A “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 there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping 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 aren’t even on … At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.” I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s 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 invaluable 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 relief 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

(完整版)高中英语阅读理解的答题方法和技巧

高中英语阅读理解的答题方法和技巧 一、先看题干,带着问题读文章。 即先看试题,再读文章。阅读题干,首先要掌握问题的类型,分清是客观信息题还是主观判断题。客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调,作者未加陈述的观点以及贯穿全文的中心主旨的理解等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位,再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比,有根有据地排除干扰项,选出正确答案。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率,节省了宝贵的时间。特别适用于对图形表格类题材的理解。 二、速读全文,了解大意知主题。 阅读的目的是获取信息。一个人的阅读能力的高低决定了他能否快速高效吸收有用信息。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力。没有一定的阅读速度就不能顺利地输入信息,更谈不上运用英语。近几年的高考阅读速度大约是每分钟40个词左右。考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。

抓主题句这是快速掌握文章大意的主要方法。主题句一般出现在文章的开头和结尾。用归纳法撰写的文章,都是表述细节的句子在前,概述性的句子居后。此时主题句就是文章的最后一句。通常用演绎法撰写的文章,大都遵循从一般到个别的写作程序,即从概述开始,随之辅以细说。这时,主题句就是文章的第一句。当然也有些文章没有主题句,需要读者自己去归纳。主题句往往对全文起提示、启迪、概括、归纳之作用,主旨大意题,归纳概括题,中心思想题往往直接可从主题句中找到答案。 三、详读细节,理顺思路与文章脉络。 文章绝不是互不相干的句子杂乱无章的堆砌。作者为文,有脉可循。如记叙文多以人物为中心,以时间或空间为线索,按事件的发生、发展、结局展开故事;论述体则包含论点、论据、结论三大要素,通过解释、举例来阐述观点。你可根据文章的特点,详读细节,以动词、时间、地点、事件、因果等为线索,找出关键词语,运用"画图列表法",勾画出一幅完整清晰的文章主题和细节的认知图。 四、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。 在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。这就是通常所说的深层理解。深层理解主要包括归纳概括题(中心思想,加标题等)和推理判断题,是阅读理解中的难点。深层理解是一

As he observed her and spoke with her, he admired her more and more. He showered her with kindness and words of praise until she consented to be his wife. Not long after they were married, however, the beautiful woman found out that she was more the object of his artistic interest than of his affections. When he admired her classic beauty, it was as though he were standing in front of a work of art rather than in front of a human being to whom he had pledged his love and promised his life. And soon he expressed his great desire to put her rare beauty on canvas. “Please sit for me in the workroom,” he pleaded, “and I will make your beauty permanent. The work will be my masterpiece!” She was humble and patient as well as flattered by his words, so she said, “Yes, my love. I will be happy to sit for you.” So the beautiful, young wife of the art ist sat meekly for hours in his studio, not complaining. Day after day she sat patiently, smiling as she posed, because she loved him and because she hoped that he would see her love in her smile and obedience. She sometimes wanted to call out to him, “Ple ase love me and want me as a person rather than as an object!” But instead, she spoke nothing but words which pleased him. At length, as the labor drew to close, the painter became wilder in his passion for his work. He only rarely turned his eyes from the canvas to look at his wife. As he stood there gazing at his beautiful work of art, he cried with a loud voice, “This is indeed life itself!” Then he turned to his beloved and saw that she was dead! (1)In what way did the artist express his appreciation of his wife's rare beauty? A. He put her classic beauty on canvas. B. He promised to marry her. C. He centered his deep affection on her. D. He pledged his love and promised his life to her.(2)What can be inferred from the story? A. The artist loved his work more than his wife. B. The artist didn't really understand what is beauty. C. The wife was fooled to sacrifice for his art creation. D. The wife loved his painting more than herself. (3)What did the artist mean by saying “This is indeed life itself!”? A. He appreciated his life of painting. B. He was grateful to his wife. C. His work was more true to life than life itself. D. His effort was really worth it. (4)What would be the best title for this passage? A. A Well-matched Couple B. A Devoted Artist C. A Rare Masterpiece D. A Stupid Wife 【答案】(1)A (2)A (3)C

高中英语新高考-阅读理解指导与解读:复盘阅读C篇阅读心理过程

高中英语新高考-阅读理解指导与解读:复盘阅读C篇阅读心理过程 试卷阅读理解如何分析?仁者见仁智者见智,没有所谓的标准答案。我的理解是,一篇好的阅读解读应该包含,当然各有侧重点不同: 1、背景、内容、主旨 2、词汇和语言 3、语篇的行文特点 4、逻辑关系 5、体裁及其语体特点 6、深层含义 7、现实含义 8、作者意图、观点和态度 每次阅读前都要问自己四点: 1、我是不是总结了本文的宏观结构,是不是其它同话题文章也有同样的结构? 2、文章的主旨在哪些段落里可以反映出来,这些段落的语句可有什么特征被广泛运用? 3、文章反映了作者什么态度,哪些句子或单词可以看出来? 4、段落是如何展开的,是举例、对比还是其它? 每次刷题后也要问自己两点: 1、命题人的设问和文章结构可有关系,或者有什么规律? 2、正确选项和错误选项分别针对文章句子的如何设计的? 下面我就本次某考试阅读C篇来实践一下,实际上这也是我课堂上的循序,当然一般都是通过问题设计。

C 1 The Bible begins with the creation of the world. As a consequence(结果标识词,读到此,应该知道后面的主题句了), in traditional Western thought the world is assumed to have been created by God. (段落中心:上帝创造世界。后面是具体解释了,可以略读)The Earth is associated with whatever is impermanent, imperfect, bodily and sinful. Heaven is the sphere of the permanent, perfect, spiritual and holy.(概念或中心句+具体解释的模式是绝大部分英语论说文的展开模式,关键是中心句的辨认。请关注解释部分里面的情感形容词:perfect, imperfect等,这都是通过对比来突出Heaven) 2 Traditional Chinese thought has no place for the idea of a creation(本句为论点,从上文的西方思想到本段的中国思想,明显是比较). What exists has always existed and shall always do so(always重复,突出中国思想的特色).Accordingly (语篇标识词,此句是照应论点句。这种模式:论点+论据+总结照应,也是很常见的)there is no concept of necessary “improvement”or “correction”of the creation through such means as a Last Judgment. 3 Things are as they are simply because that is the way they are(从because可见这是承接上文,具体解释中国思想了,可扫读一下第4段的首句确定). The natural principle of order, common to all that exists, is called the Way (dao)(新的概念the Way的提出,必然后面要具体解释,这是铁定规律). The Way is not some sort of law or pattern that God or prophets (先知) forced on what exists. It reveals itself in the

From June to September, the temperature can easily surpass the century mark. But that doesn't stop hikers from attempting the 1.3-mile hiking to the top of the city's famed Camelback Mountain. Signs warn that the trail is "extremely difficult". If you continue, a posted checklist suggests at least a liter of water per person. And if you're still not stopped, another sign farther up declares: "If you're halfway through your water, turn around!" Unfortunately, many people to not take the warnings seriously. Fortunate y, Scott Cullymore does. The 53-year-old Cullymore can be found hiking up and down Camelback a couple of times a day, giving out cold bottles of water to worn-out hikers. He has helped hydrate so many hikers that he has earned a heavenly nickname: the Water Angel. Cullymore was on Camelback Mountain one day in 2015 when a British tourist died after being lost for nearly six hours in the July heat. That experience inspired him to start helping people caught unaware by the cruelty of Mother Nature. "They underestimate the mountain, and they overestimate what they can do, and they get themselves in trouble." he warned. One hiker who was offered water agrees. "You think you know the heat, but then you get out here in the desert and it surrounds you like a blanket," said Austin Hill, who was hiking with a high school friend. They were lucky, he said pointing to Cullymore. "We ran into this Good Samaritan here." And with that, the Water Angel goes in search of another hiker in need.

英语阅读理解文章(作者)意图解题指导教学设计 I.设计思路 《高中英语新课程标准》明确指出:“高中英语课程要有利于学生优化英语学习方法,使他们通过观察、体验、探究等积极主动的学习方法,充分发挥自己的学习潜能,形成有效的学习策略,提高自主学习的能力。” 高考大纲中关于阅读理解的要求:要求考生读懂简易的英语文学作品、科普文章、公告、说明、广告以及书、报、杂志中关于一般性话题的简短文章并回答相关问题。考生应能: 1、理解主旨要义; 2、理解文中具体信息; 3、根据上下文推断生词的词义; 4、作出简单判断和理解; 5、理解文章的基本结构; 6、理解作者的意图和态度; 7、根据所读,用恰当的词语补全文章提纲、概括关键内容 或作要词词语转换。 因此有关阅读理解题目主要有以下四种: 主旨大意型 事实细节型 词义猜测型 推理判断型 让我们比较一下近两年江苏高考卷阅读理解题的分类题量。

2010年高考阅读理解推理判断题型中要求考生能把握文脉逻辑关系—句与句、段与段之间的逻辑关系。 推理判断题 英语阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,而是要求阅读者根据字面意思,通过全篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义,这就是判断推理题。判断推理题在阅读测试中属于难题。 判断推理是一种创造性的思维活动,但它并非无章可循。判断推理题要在阅读理解整体语篇的基础上,掌握文章的真正内涵。①要吃透文章的字面意思,从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索,这是推理的前提和基础。②要对文字的表面信息进行挖掘加工,由表入里,由浅入深。从具体到抽象,从特殊到一般,通过分析、综合、判断等进行深层处理,符合逻辑地推理。不能就事论事,断章取义,以偏概全。③要忠于原文,以文章提供的事实和线索为依据,立足已知,推断未知。立足现在,预测未来。不能主观臆想,凭空想象,随意揣测,更不能以自己的观点代替作者的观点。④要把握句、段之间的逻辑关系,了解语篇的结构。要体会文章的基调,揣摸作者的态度,摸准逻辑发展的方向,悟出作者的弦外之音。 推断题分类 1.推断隐含意义 2.推断作者观点或态度 3.推断写作目的 4.推断文章出处 5.推断文脉逻辑关系 那么,该如何掌握对推断作者观点态度题以及写作目的题的理解呢? 人物性格、态度及观点判断题: 高考阅读测试中有些是考查对作者的主导思想、被描写人物语气、言谈话语中流露的情绪、性格倾向和作者或文中人物态度、观点等方面的理解题。做这一类题时一定要注意:由表及里的准确把握字里行间的意思,切勿用自己的主观想法或观点代替作者的思想观点;特别注意那些描写环境气氛的语言,以及表达感情、态度观点的词语。要特别注意作者在文章中的措词,尤其是表达感情色彩的形容词;能结合自己平时积累的有关英语国家的文化传统、风俗习惯等背景知识来识别评价。

Panicked crowds move fast and let out a large amount of energy, usually compared to the energy made by a running train: once a crowd gets moving it is very hard to stop, and the flow of people could easily sweep you off your feet. It is interesting to see that the force of only 6 or 7 people pushing in the same direction can cause up to 1, 000 pounds of force—enough to break brick walls. During a deadly stampede, people can even die standing up. People die when pressure is put to their bodies in a front to back direction, causing them not to be able to breathe. If you are in a crowd, the first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and find different exits. No matter where you are, make sure you always know how to get out. Make yourself aware of the type of ground you are standing on, and know that in a crowd of moving people wet ground can cause you

外研版高中英语必修一《阅读理解》专项练习题(含答案) Graham and his friends preferred to shoot up in their arms, necks and legs. A dealer once said Graham was the type who would never be able to turn back and that he expected him to die from the drug. Wendy feared the same, but di dn’t know how to save her son. “ Once, after he’d disappeared for more than a month, I found him at a friend’s house with a bunch of other users,” she said, “I got down on my hands and knees, begging him to come home. He did, but the next morning he was go ne. I don’t know what made him do it, but I drove 20 miles to the nearest train station. Graham was headed for Seattle, his pockets full of drugs. If I hadn’t gotten there in time, I would never have seen him alive again.” The turning point came in 2007, after Graham was arrested yet again for possession. Wendy got a call from the Montana Drugs Project, which works with local law enforcement(强制执行)to keep track of youth-related crimes so it can help families in trouble. Following a counselor’s advice, Wendy hired two men to come to her home in the middle of the night, tie Graham and take him to a treatment program in Thompson Falls, Montana. “I was high when they came and really angry with my mom,” he said, “But if she hadn’t done that, drugs would have killed me.” After six months of treatment, Graham, now 19, came back to Kalispell, where he’s grown close to Wendy once again. “I still have the desires every day and attend support meetings every night,” he said, “But life is worth living again. My mom thinks that’s a miracle. I guess she is right.” 1.The underlined phrase “shoot up” in paragraph 1 probably means_________. A.increase very quickly and suddenly B.put illegal drugs into the body by using a needle C.kill or injure someone by using a gun D.try to achieve a particular aim 2.When the two men came to their home in the middle of the night, Graham _______.
