英语阅读短文的前测
『壹』 英语阅读理解题的技巧
英语阅读理解题的技巧
现在的许多中学生害怕英语阅读,不愿面对它,原因是他们的阅读能力低。下面是我分享的英语阅读理解题的技巧,欢迎大家阅读!
一、阅读测试的基本体裁。
初中英语文章的基本体裁有记叙文、说明文和应用文。记叙文通常以记叙、描写为主要手段,是以记人写事为主要内容的文章。说明文是以说明为主要表达方式来说明事物、阐明事理的文章。说明文通常以科普知识、体育运动、异域文化、热门话题等题材文章。应用文是国家机关、企事业单位、社会团体、人们群众处理日常工作。生产、学习和生活的公私事物,所经常使用的一种文体通常有书信来往,电话留言、广告、说明书等。选用这些材料不仅能提高测试的真实性,还能通过展示目标语言的现实生活中真实运用来激发学生的学习动机。
二、阅读测试的基本题型
初中英语阅读文章的基本题型有阅读短文,根据短文内容判断所给句子是否正确,阅读短文,在所给ABCD四个选项中选择问题的最佳答案;阅读短文,按要求答题,阅读短文,填写另一篇短文中所缺信息,这里的信息可能是单词、词组,也可能是句子。这一题型难度较大,但答案灵活;阅读短文根据上下文猜测个别单词的意思或找出所给词或短语的同义词。
三、阅读测试的设题原则
1.考查学生在阅读中准确捕获信息的能力。这就要求学生通过阅读,运用自己所学的语法、词组、短语等方面的语言知识。根据自己的理解,掌握所材料的主旨和大意,选择正确的选项。
2.要求学生既理解具体的事实,也理解抽象的概念,既理解文章的表层意思,也理解文章的深层含义,包括作者的态度、意图及“弦外之音”。
3.要求学生既理解某句、某段的意义,也理解全篇的逻辑关系,并根据以此进行推理和判断。
4.要求学生既能根据材料信息去理解,也能结合自己应有的常识去理解。
四、阅读的一般方法
阅读一般分为快速阅读和精读阅读。快速阅读就是对文章进行快速浏览。读时精力要集中,但不要注意细节,遇到少数生词或难懂语法均忽略。重点应放在全文概貌上,紧紧抓住文章的中心思想:既文章的开始段和结尾段,以及各段的开头句;紧扣文章中多次出现的词语、句子、数字、专有名词等。阅读的最终目的是要得到真正意义上的理解,这是获取正确答案的基础。精读的要求是比较彻底地理解文章的内容,即文章的主旨大意,具体细节、作者的意图和态度、文章的基本结构尤其是文章中的关键词语,不仅要理解字面意义。而且要看清隐含意义。
五、阅读的有效方法
根据中学生的知识水平和综合能力,适于他们的最基本的阅读方法为:短文—问题—短文和问题—短文—问题。
1.短文—问题—短文。这种方法是先阅读短文,再读文中的问题,最后回到短文去寻找答案。其特点是有利于学生把握文章的主旨和作者的态度,有利于解决主体概括、推理判断和词义猜测等深层次问题。但阅读速度慢。学生不能在阅读时积极主动地预习文章的内容,缺乏主观能动性。
2.问题—短文—问题。这种方法是先阅读短文中的问题,然后带着问题读文章,最后再读问题以检查答案。阅读是学生把精力放在与问题直接相关的关键词语上,找到所需要的信息就立即停止。扫描式阅读其特点是针对性强,节省时间,可以用来解决事实性和细节性的问题,但是对解决主旨型和推断性的问题效果不明显。
六、阅读短文的技巧
1.初读全文。(1)一般应先通读整篇短文。初步了解短文的整体框架、大衣、及作者的意向并在主要信息及各段中心内容的同时,标出主要内容或有疑问的地方。(2)也可以先快速浏览一下文章的题目,明确要求,以便快速阅读全文时留意或抓住重要材料及关键词语,做到心中有数、有的`放矢。
2.再读全文。目的是加深对文章的整体把握以及对文章各段中心内容的理解,进一步思考并初步弄清或解决第一遍阅读时发现的疑问。
3.细读试答。在认真研读题目(“题干”和”选项”).明确答题要求的基础上再细读短文有关部分以便最后决定答案.这一步至关重要,即要细心又要在整体把握的层面上,上下照应,前后联系,一般来说试题的先后次序与短文所述内容的次序基本一致的,因而答题应按照试题的次序逐个去做,但也有一些题目的设置与文章的先后顺序是不一致的,答题原则是先易后难,不会的题目放在最后做.
4.复读核查。试答完各题之后,再度一遍短文,瞻前顾后地逐一核对答案.在这一步上应充分利用和逐一到各题目之间的相互关联或对应,要着力抓住起决定作用的关键题目.关键题目正确与否会引起连锁反应,影响到读者对整篇文章的理解与把握因此切莫忽视这一点.
提高阅读能力的最好办法是不断的阅读,要注意把握精读和泛读结合起来持之以恒.总之,学生要想在阅读测试中拿分,就要在平时进行有目的有计划的分类阅读.熟悉不同体裁的文章结构的特点和设题手法.合理使用阅读技巧.同时还要增加生活常识关注热点事件,注重学科间的综合知识积累,以达到理解语境;强化语篇和跨越文化意识的目的.阅读是一种能力也是一门技术是在不断的实践中锻炼出来的!

答案:CBBAD
在奥地利的维也纳,最近当一位名为Joseph Groeger的老妇人过世的时候,人们忍不住要问:“为什么她可以活到107岁呢?”当对148个100岁以上的维也纳人进行调查之后,我们得出了答案。有点让人惊讶的是,这些人中的多数人都大部分的人生都是在都市生活的。尽管城市给我们的印象一直都是不利于健康的,但是城市生活往往提供一些乡村缺乏的便利。其中有一个就是这些被调查者长寿的重要因素。
这个因素就是锻炼。在城市,对于比较短的路程,往往走路比你等着坐公车去更快捷。就算去搭乘一些公共交通工具也经常要走一段路程。较小的公寓一般没有电梯,人们就不得不爬楼。城市人还经常步行去附近的超市买东西。在停车位如此难找的情况下,往往没有别的选择只有步行。
另一方面,那些住在乡村和郊区的人反而无需每天走路。事实上,他们每天都乘坐交通工具,去上学,去上班,或者去其他任何地方,都必须开车前往。
高中英语阅读理解测试题 篇3
If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago,we should probably have to say that we could not remember But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day,we should be able to give an answer to the question.
It is the same in history Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country,but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war.Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to Write.For example,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them.But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa. because they had not learned to write. Sometimes.of course,even if the people cannot write,they may know something of the past.They have heard about it from older people,and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings,and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past.This we may call remembered history’.Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is,because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing.But where there are no written records,such spoken stories are often very helpful.
41. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage?
A.“Remembered history”,compared with written history,is less reliable
B.Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.
C.A written account of our daily activities helps US to be able to answer many questions.
D.Where there are no written records.there is no history.

A.there was nothing worth being written down at that time
B .the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record
C.the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire
D.the people there did not know how to write
43.“Remembered history”refers to
A.history based on a persons imagination
B .stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth
C .songs and dances about the most important events

When Adam and Eve wereexpelledfrom Eden, there was an incident when the flames of a blazing sword of an angel, who had sent them away, burned a birds nest.
The birds were all burned to death, but a new bird was born from one of theruddilyheated eggs. This means that the unique Phoenix was born.
The phoenix builds its nest in Arabia, and there is a myth that it set fire to its own nest once every 100 years. Among those ruddy eggs heated by the fire, a new Phoenix comes to be born again.
The phoenix flies as fast as a ray of light, its feathers are ofdazzlingbeauty, and the sound of its voice is very sweet.
When a mother sits next to her babys cradle and dandles the baby, the Phoenix comes down to the babys pillow, and the glaring feathers of Phoenix make a halo around the babys head. The phoenix flies around rooms of poor people,sprinklessunshine, and carries the fragrance of violets into the rooms.
The phoenix stays not only in Arabia but it flies around the far North Pole, broad field, above the rivers where the sunshine falls in coal mines and in our front yards where beautiful flowers bloom.
On the carriage of the Greek tragic poet, Thespis, the Phoenix became atalkativecrow, for the troubadours of Island it played the harp disguised as a swan, and on the shoulder of Shakespeare the phoenix whispered "eternity" as it was the Odins crow.
The phoenix sang beautiful songs, and people kissed its shining fallen feathers from its wings. Even though the Phoenix came from glorious Paradise, people may not see the Phoenix because they are busy with seeingsparrows.
The bird of the Paradise! Born once every 100 years, dies in flames! When it was born under the tree of wisdom in the garden of the Paradise, God kissed the Phoenix and gave him a name. That was "Poetry and Art".

Air is all around us. It is around us as we walk and play. From the time we were born air is around us on every side. When we sit down, it is around us. When we go to bed, air is also around us. We live in air.
We can live without food or water for a few days, but we cannot live for more than a few minutes without air. We take in air. When we are working or running we need more air. When we are asleep, we need less air. We live in air, but we cannot see it. We can only feel it when it is moving. Moving air is called wind. How can we make air move? Here is one way. Hold an open book in front of your face,close it quickly. What can you feel? What you feel is air.

How you feel, how you react and how much stress you have in your life is in direct relation to how you think.
你的感觉、你对外界事物的反应以及你所能承受的压力直接影响到你的想法。
Some people let random circumstances predict their day and actually end up creating stress for themselves. For example, when they go to make coffee and find there is none left, they may start the day by thinking, "Oh, this isn’t going to be a good day." Then, for the rest of the day, they anwenw.com allow minor inconveniences, unexplained challenges or other less ideal events to reinforce their negative thought. And they end up having a stressful day.
有些人很轻易地被周遭的事物影响自己一天的心情,结果只会徒生烦恼。例如,有些人冲咖啡时发现咖啡没有了,他们就会以"今天会是不幸的一天"这样的想法开始一天的`生活。然后,在这一整天的时光里,他们放任小小的不便、莫名的质疑或者其它不太顺心的小插曲加重自己的消极思想。最后,他们一天都过得极其郁闷。
Look forward to your day and don’t let negative thoughts control it. Change how you interpret or react to life’s events. If you run out of coffee, change your thoughts to, "If this is the worst thing that could happen to me today, then the rest of my day will be great."
以积极的心态去期待每一天的生活,不要让消极的思想主宰你。换个角度去理解和对待生活中的各种意外事件。若咖啡没有了,你可以转念一想:"如果这就是今天能发生的最糟糕的事情,那么我的后半天肯定会过得无比美妙。"
If you continually have negative thoughts, then you are allowing only negative events to be your companion for the rest of the day. And, when something good does occur, you won’t even recognize it.
如果你一直受消极思想影响,那么你一整天看任何事都会是消极的。即使有好的事情发生,你也不会意识到。
The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.
你的幸福感取决于你的思想境界。
『肆』 英语阅读中的猜测技巧
英语阅读中的猜测技巧
在阅读各种各样的英文资料时,我们不可避免地会遇到一些不认识的生单词。下面是我分享的英语阅读中的猜测技巧,欢迎大家阅读!
一、 借助于语境(上下文)
在猜测测生词的词义上,语境起着十分重要的作用。在多数情况下,当一个生词第一次出现时,作者总设法给出暗示以帮助读者理解词义。语境线索可以有多种情况,总的来说大约有以下几种。
1。 根据定义
例如: The people you see fighting,crashing cars or jumping from building are not actors, of course。 They are called stuntmen。 根据前句我们可以推断出stuntmen的意思是“特技演员”。
2。 根据解释
在有此文章中,某些生词的词义在下文中可得到解释或说明。这种解释常以定语从句、同位语从句、表语从句的形式出现,有时用标点符号(破折号、冒号、引号等等)引出,有时用or, that is, that is to say, in other words 等词语引出。
例如:(1) Jack is now a florist who keeps a shop for selling flowers in our district 从 who 引导的定语从句中我们知道florist的意思是花商。
(2) Capacitance, or the ability to store electric charge, is one of the most common characteristics of electronic circuits。 由同位语我们很快猜出生词capacitance的意思是电容量。
(3) Sociology is the term used to describe the scientific study of human society。由be后面的表语我们推断出 Sociology 意思是社会学。
(4) The nurse was on the night shift―from midnight to 7 a。m 句中night shift的意思可由破折号后面的内容猜出其意思是夜班巧腊。
(5) They are vertebrates, that is,anmimals that have backbones。 句中的生词vertebrates由后半部分“anmimals that have backbones”可得知其含义为脊椎动物。
3。 根据举例
有时候,除了下定义、给解释之外,作者还用举例的方法来暗示词语的意思。
例如:Defined most broadly, folklore includes all the customs, belief and tradition that people have handed down from generation to generation。 此句中, includes后面的例子基本上表示出了“folklore” 的内容范围, 即人们一代传一代的那些风俗、习惯、信仰和传统的东西。这些东西都属于通常所说的“民俗学,民俗传统”,这也就是“folklore”一词的基本含义。
4。 根据毕宽迹同义词、近义词,反义词、对比来说明生词。
例如(1) Their greatest fear was of a conflagration, since fire would destroy their flimsy wooden settlement before help could arrive。从句中fire(火),我们可得知conflagration的意思为火灾。
(2) As the fighting on the fronts reached itspeak,the economy neared its nadir。 从句中我们可手并以看出nadir和peak(高峰)意思是相反的,因此nadir的意思是低谷
(3) If youagree,write “Yes”; If you dissent,write “No”前后对比分明,由agree知道dissent是不同意,不赞成。
二、 借助构词方面的知识
1。 根据前缀猜测词义
例如:I’m illiterate about such things。
词根literate意为“有文化修养的、通晓的”,前缀il表示否定,因此illiterate指“一窍不通,不知道的”。
2。 根据后缀猜测词义
例如:Insecticide is applied where it is needed。
后缀cide表示“杀者,杀灭剂”,结合大家熟悉的词根insect(昆虫),不难猜出 insecticide意为“杀虫剂”。
3。 根据复合词的各部分猜测词义
例如:Shantizs believe his system could help recycled materials become more costeffective。
costeffictive 是由cost 和effective 合成,effective是effect 加后缀派生而来。既然“成本有效”,就是“划算的”。
三、 借助语法
即根据所猜之词在句中所处的语法位置及整句内的.语法关系来判断词义。
例如:(1) We were unable to get enough money and therefore had to abandon the project。此句为因果关系,由句中were unable to get enough money可知abandon意思是“放弃”。
(2) Mr。 Green is alwayspunctual for everything, but for some reason he was late for an important meeting last week。此句为转折句。由he was late可得知punctual的意思是“守时的,准时的”。
四、 借助生活经验和普通常识
例如:(1) The snake slithered through the grass。根据有关蛇的生活习性的知识,我们可以推断出slither词义为“爬行”。
(2) When a doctor performs an operation on a patient, he usually gives an anaesthetic to make him unconscious, because he does not want his patient to feel pain or to know what is happening to him。一般具有一点医学常识的人都知道医生在给病人动手术之前,为了减轻病人的痛苦,往往给病人注射麻醉剂,使病人失去知觉后再动手术。所以根据这一常识,通过上下文就能大致确定anaesthetic一词的意思是“麻醉剂”。
五、 借助单词的发音
即利用单词的发音来推测词义。英语中有些单词来自汉语,与汉语的发音有些相似。另外,也有一些单词译成汉语时采用的是音译法。例如:sofa(沙发),typhone(台风),aspirin(阿斯匹林),nylon(尼龙),Olymlic(奥林匹克)等。
综上所述, 利用各种已知信息推测、判断词义是一项重要的阅读技巧。在实践中, 如果我们能够灵活、 综合地运用猜测技巧, 同时注意从阅读中进一步加强语言基础知识,我们在英文阅读中就可以排除生词的障碍, 使自己的阅读理解能力大有提高,在阅读时就能够很顺利理解文章的思想内容, 提高阅读速度。

高中英语阅读理解测试题 篇5
Trees are useful to man in three very important ways:they provide him wood and other procts;they give him shade;and they help to prevent drought(干旱)and floods.
Unfortunately,in many parts of the world,man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important.In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees,he has cut them down in large numbers Two thousand years ago,a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships,with which to gain itself an empire It gained the empire but,without its trees,its soil became bare and poor.When the empire fell to pieces,the country found itself faced by floods and starvation.
Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees,it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this.They cut down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees So,unless the government has a good system of control,or can ecate the people,the forests slowly disappear
This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees.The results are even more serious:for where
there are trees,their roots break the soil up,allowing the rain to sink in, and also bind the soil.This prevents the soil from being washed away.But where there are no trees,the rainfalls on hard ground and flows away on the surface,and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow When a11 the topsoil is gone.nothing remains but worthless desert.
41.Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways,the most important of which is that they can ____

Passage 3
树木对于人来说有3个重要益处:树木给人类提供木材和其他产物;树木可以让人们乘凉;树木可有效地防止旱涝灾害。
可惜的是,在世界上许多地方,人类没有认识到以上三个作用中,第三个是最重要的。人们急切于从树木上快速的谋取利益,于是大量的砍伐森林。
两千年之前,有一个富裕和强大的国家。为了建立帝国,砍倒了树木来造战舰。帝国建立了,但是,没有树木的土地变得荒芜和贫瘠。当帝国四分五裂的时候,整个国家发觉自己面临的是水灾和饥荒。 就算在政府认识到足够的树木储备的重要性时,有时却很难让人民也意识到这点。人们砍倒了树木,却疏于种植和照料树苗。因此,除非政府建立一套体制来控制或者教育人们,否则森林就会渐渐消失。
森林的消失不仅仅意味着树木的减少,还有更严重的后果。在有树的地方,树根不仅把土壤粉碎成小块,便于雨水的渗入,还可以牢牢的抓住泥土,防止泥土被冲刷走。但是在没有书的地方,雨水直接落在坚硬的地面,在土地表面流走。这不仅会导致洪水,雨水还会带走庄稼赖于生长的肥沃的表层土。当所有的表层土被冲走之后,除了毫无价值的沙漠之外,什么也没有了。

The global population is living longer,and getting older,阅读理解答案
The global population is living longer,and getting older,which presents new challenges. “The question becomes:who will take care of everyone While people will always be the best caregivers for people,there just aren’t enough people. That’s where robot17教育网:ic technology can really make a difference,” says Professor Maja Mataric at the University of Southern California.
Her group is developing robots to work with stroke (中风) patients and elderly people. The research team has found that people react well to a robot gym instructor,and seem to get less frustrated with it than with instructions given on a computer screen. The robot can act as a perfect trainer,with infinite(极大的) patience.
“People say things like ‘I prefer this robot to my husband!Can I take it home’” according to Professor Mataric. “In fact there’s a really important point here. As we create these care giving technologies,we’re helping not only the people that need the care,but also the people caring for them. We can give them a break,and help them avoid burnout.”
People are going to have to like,and importantly trust robots before they welcome them into their homes,and several groups around the world are working on making it easier to communicate with them.
Much of human communication takes place through body language. Gestures, eye contact , and concepts of personal space are all things that robots are being taught. In learning about how people interact(互动) with machines,researchers are also discovering new roles for robots in our lives. Robots can communicate with humans in ways that other technologies can not.
“If someone finds the robot to be more persuasive and more reliable,that’s going to affect how they interact with it,” says Dr Cynthia Breazeal, director of the Personal Robots Group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “We can now start to think about fields where it’s the social interaction,which is the main means by which a robot helps someone.” Dr Breazeal says that means robots could be used in ecation,learning,and health care,where social support is important.
9.Professor Maja Mataric mainly focused on robots’ function of ________.

全球人口的寿命越来越长,年龄越来越大,这带来了新的挑战。“问题变成了:谁来照顾每一个人,而人们永远是最好的照顾者,只是人太少了。这就是机器人的问题。”教育网:南加州大学的Maja Mataric教授说,IC技术真的能起到作用。
她的团队正在开发用于治疗中风的机器人(中风) 病人和老年人。研究团队发现,人们对机器人健身教练的反应很好,而且似乎对机器人健身教练的失望程度比对电脑屏幕上给出的指令要低。该机器人可以作为一个完美的教练,具有无限的灵活性(极大的) 耐心
马塔里克教授说:“人们会说‘比起我的丈夫,我更喜欢这个机器人!我能把它带回家吗’。”。“事实上,这里有一个非常重要的观点。当我们创造这些护理技术时,我们不仅帮助了需要护理的人,也帮助了护理他们的人。我们可以让他们休息一下,帮助他们避免精疲力竭。”
人们在欢迎机器人进入自己的家之前,必须喜欢机器人,更重要的是要信任机器人。世界各地的几个组织正在努力让机器人更容易与它们沟通。
人类的大部分交流都是通过肢体语言进行的。手势、眼神交流和个人空间的概念都是机器人学习的内容。了解人们如何互动(互动) 有了机器,研究人员也发现了机器人在我们生活中的新角色。机器人可以用其他技术无法实现的方式与人类通信。
麻省理工学院个人机器人小组主任辛西娅·布雷泽尔博士说:“如果有人发现机器人更具说服力、更可靠,这将影响他们与机器人的互动方式。”。“我们现在可以开始思考社会互动的领域,这是机器人帮助他人的主要方式。”布雷泽尔博士说,这意味着机器人可以用于教育、学习和医疗保健,而在这些领域,社会支持非常重要。
高中英语阅读理解测试题 篇7
英语阅读答案
Here’s something to think about the next time you ask your teacher for help:trying hard to do schoolwork on your own can help you learn.According to a recent study,the more you try while you are learning new information,the better you can remember it later.
This might surprise you.When teachers are presenting new information,they often give students lots of help.But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning.“Don’t be too quick to get help when learning something new,”ecation expert Ma Kapur said.“Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.’’
Kapur came up with the idea that trying hard can lead to better learning.Then he tested it out on students in Singapore.He separated students into two groups.In the first group,students were asked to solve math problems with the teacher’s help.In the second group,students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another,instead of getting help from the teacher.
With the teacher’s help,students in the first group were able to find the correct answers.Students in the second group did not solve the problems correctly.But they did come up with a lot of good ideas.
The students were then tested on what they had 1earned.The group without any help from a teacher scored much higher than the group who had help.Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process(过程),not just the solution.
Kapur’s advice for kids is to put a 1ot of effort(努力)into learning something new rather than going to your teacher for help.“Simply doing a little work or nothing at all won’t work.”says Kapur.“Try to solve a problem in as many ways as possible.’’
13.What is the best title for the text
A.Work Your Mind
B.Practice Makes Perfect
C.The Best Way to Learn
D.Teachers’ Role in Schoolwork
14.Manu Kapur holds that _______ .
A.it’s necessary for students to ask for teachers’ help
B.students should try to solve problems by themselves
C.students with teachers’ help have more good ideas
D.students in the first group are cleverer than those in the second group

A. presenting research findings
B. comparing different opinions
C. showing scientific information
D. setting down general rules

15.A
下次你向老师求助时,有件事需要考虑:努力自学可以帮助你学习。根据最近的一项研究,你在学习新信息时尝试得越多,你以后就能更好地记住它。
这可能会让你大吃一惊。当老师在介绍新信息时,他们经常给学生很多帮助。但一项新的研究表明,这可能不是支持学习的最佳方式。教育专家马卡普尔说:“学习新东西时,不要太快寻求帮助。”。“试着自己动手,即使这意味着尝试不同的方式。”
卡普尔提出了努力学习可以带来更好的学习的想法。然后他在新加坡的学生身上进行了测试。他把学生分成两组。在第一组中,学生们被要求在老师的帮助下解决数学问题。在第二组中,学生们被要求通过互相帮助来解决同样的问题,而不是从老师那里得到帮助。
在老师的帮助下,第一组的学生能够找到正确的答案。第二组的学生没有正确地解决问题。但他们确实想出了很多好主意。
然后对学生们所学知识进行测试。没有老师帮助的组比有老师帮助的组得分高得多。卡普尔说,努力寻找答案有助于学生理解这个过程(过程),不仅仅是解决方案。
卡普尔给孩子们的建议是付出更多的努力(努力)学习新东西,而不是向老师寻求帮助。“简单地做一点工作或什么都不做是行不通的。”卡普尔说。“尽可能多地解决问题。”

『柒』 做英语阅读题时,该怎样做才能最快地理解全文并找到答案
英语学习是很多学生头疼的事情,特别是由于阅读题是很多学生的拦路虎,在此,我有以下几条建议帮助学生最快的理解全文并找到答案。
『捌』 初中英语阅读理解题型
初中英语阅读理解题型
英语阅读理解题是中考英语常见的题型之一,且占比分较大,让学生熟悉常见的题型,掌握正确的答题技巧及解题步骤,可收到"事半功倍"的效果。下面就由我来跟大家介绍一下初中英语阅读理解常见题型及答题技巧吧!
【初中英语阅读理解题型及解题技巧】
(一)主旨题
主旨题主要考查学生对短文中心思想或作者意图的掌握。做此类题时,应通读全文,理解文章大意,充分理解主题句的意义。短文往往围绕主题句展开,主题句通常出现在短文第一句或最后一句。
(二)细节题
细节题是用来进一步表达主题,体现中心思想的,往往针对短文某个细节来设题。做此类题时,应快速捕捉信息,可能是一些事例、数字等,阅读时要有针对性。
(三)推断题
推断题就是根据某个事实推断结论,主要考查学生的理解力和推断力。这类推断通常包括:数据事实推断、常识推断以及作者的写作目的、态度和倾向等的推断。做此类题时,应根据短文中的相关语句,对与事实有关的细节加以分析,找出线索,悟出字里行间的意思,反复比较,从而作出合乎逻辑的判断。
(四)猜测词义题
猜测词义题主要考查学生根据上下文正确判断灵活变化的词义能力。一般情况下,推断词义的题目中所出现的单词,大多数是学生未曾见过的生词,学生需要在该词出现的上下文中去寻找线索。通过阅读上下文,断定该词的真正含义,然后将这个释义代入文中,检查是否贴切,仔细比较直到得出该词的确切的含义。
(五)正误判断题
正误判断题主要考查学生对文章的具体事实、信息的理解能力。一般是根据文章的事实或细节,给出一个句子,判断其正误。这类题比较直接,难度相对较小。做此类题时,应先看题,后带着“问题”快速阅读短文,寻找所需要的信息。 初中英语阅读理解题已成为评估学生英语水平的重要测试题型,在中考英语试卷中所占比重较大。阅读理解题主要是考查学生综合运用所学语言知识的能力,包括细节理解能力、词义判断能力、归纳概括能力及逻辑推理能力等。大致来说,阅读理解题主要针对如下方面:
(1) 个别词语或句子;(2)某一细节或情节;(3)主题;(4)背景知识;(5)结论或结局;(6) 内涵隐意或寓意等。下面本人就根据阅读理解题的题型特点,来谈一些答题技巧。
一、直接理解题
这种题目比较简单,只要通读全文,了解文中所叙述的重要事实或细节就可以解答出来,有的甚至可以从文章的原句中直接找到答案。此类题目的出题形式很多,例如:
(1)Which of the following statements is true / false?
(2)Which of the following is(not)mentioned?
(3)How many / How much / Where / How / What„„?
(4)What does the writer think about?
(5)Which is the right order of the events given in thepassage?
要快速辨认和记忆事实或细节,就需要恰当地使用查阅的方法。查阅是读者在对材料有所了解的情况下进行的,它的特点是带着问题去寻找答案,往往与略读综合使用,具体方法与步骤如下:
(1)略读材料,了解原文大意,掌握其中心意思或主旨。
(2)按文章的体裁、作者写作的组织模式及有关信息词,如for example,first,second„„预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。
(3)将自己的精力放在寻找所需要的细节上,快速通篇阅读,眼睛自左至右、自下而上呈Z形扫视,待找到含有相关细节的句子时,就要放慢速度,仔细核对,比较内容,直至找到答案。
二、语义理解题
在阅读中,我们经常会遇到一些生词,需要根据上下文猜测它们的意思。此类问题考查学生紧扣原文,根据上下文语境判断单词、词语或短句意义的能力。常见的题型有:直接对生词进行解释;对多义词或短语在文章具体语言环境中的意义作出准确判断;对英语中的一些格言或谚语进行解释;对文中一些代词的指代对象作出界定等。这种题型常见的设题方式如下:
(1)The underlined word(phrase)in the passage means______.
(2)The word“it/them”in the first paragraph refers to______.
(3)The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means____.
(4)What does the underlined word“„”refer to______.
(5)By „ the writer means______.
在做此类题时,考生应紧扣原文,根据上下文语境进行判断,切不要望文生义或断章取义,也不能只选择自己熟悉的意思。猜测词义的常见方法有:
1)根据构词法猜测词义;
(2)根据上下文猜测词义;
(3)根据定义或解释猜测词义;
(4)根据同义词、反义词以及对比关系猜测词义;
(5)根据生活常识猜测词义。
三、逻辑推理题
推理判断试题属于深层阅读理解题。它要求考生尽量考虑文中全部信息或事实,在通篇理解文章的基础上,严格按照作者提供的信息推断出作者的言外之意。这种题型常见的设题方式有:
(1)From the text,it can be inferred that______.
(2)The passage suggests that______.
(3)Which of the following best describes______.
(4)The writer’s attitude towards„is______.
(5)From the text,we learn that______.
这种题目有一定难度,解答时必须根据上下文及相互间的关系或对整篇文章进行深层理解后,才能找到答案。有时甚至还得联系作者的意图、态度等文外之意加以推理。解此类题目可从以下几方面入手:
(1)根据常识判断。即解题时,除弄清文意外,还需借助生活常识、风土人情、传说掌故、名人轶事等进行判断。
(2)根据知识判断。即解题时,运用一些一般性知识,如天文、地理、文学、艺术、科技等自然科学和社会科学知识。
(3)根据计算判断。即解题时,运用一些数学知识进行和差、面积、体积、速度等方面的运算。
(4)根据情节判断。即解题时,从情节所提供的基本事实出发,寻找一定规律,如时间关系、条件关系、因果关系、比较关系、转折关系等作为推理根据。这种题目最容易出现,考生要从时间、地点、事件的情节安排与发展中,深入探讨其逻辑关系及隐喻、引申等因素。
四、归纳总结题
这种题型要求学生在理解全文的基础上,对文章进行归纳、概括或评价。解这种题目时,不能只凭文中的只言片语而断章取义,如涉及文章的标题(title)、主题(main idea)、结论(conclusion)、结局(end)等有关问题,都需要在细读全文的基础上,结合所学语言知识进行逻辑思维、推理、判断,从而获取文章中的内在信息。常见的设题方式有:
(1)The general idea of the passage is about______.
2)The main idea of the article is______.
(3)The main purpose of this selection is______.
4)The passage suggests that______.
5)Which of the following best states the theme of thepassage?
具体解题时,应注意一些技巧:
(1)首先看短文的开头和结尾,确定短文题材,预测其内容。每段的第一句话往往会提供重要信息,可以帮助我们搜索各段落乃至整篇文章的大意。
(2)速读全文,整体理解短文大意,抓住关键词语,弄清文章的主旨。
(3)根据已知短文内容,着手解题。可先将文后的选择题看一下,然后带着问题再去阅读。这样做,一方面有助于对文章进一步理解,另一方面可以有针对性地从文章中寻找答案。
(4)迅速复读全文,检查自己的理解是否正确,所选答案是否前后矛盾。通过全面考虑,最后确定答案。
一.教学大纲对阅读理解的要求
(一)初中英语教学大纲对学生阅读上的基本要求:
1.能阅读难度相当于课文的材料,理解其大意。
2.能独立阅读所学语言知识范围内的材料,生词率不超过3%。
3.阅读速度要求每分钟50-70词。
(二)中考阅读理解的考点
1.文章的话题—略读文章,领会文章大意的题。
2.文章的中心题—归纳,概括的能力。
3.文章的细节—扫读或细读文章,以获得某些特地信息或准确的寻找所需细节的能力。
4.文章的寓意,结论-领会作者的言外之意或推断出文章的结论。
5.生词词意,猜词—对生词词意的判断能力。
(三)中考阅读理解考察的文体
1.记叙文—抓住人物,地点,时间,情节发展线索。
2.说明文—要以事物为中心进行思考。抓住事物的特征,用途,相互关系等。
(四)解题思路与技巧
1.快速浏览全文,掌握大意。
2.仔细审题,分析比较选项 。
3.带着问题复读,捕捉关键信息,解答问题。
4.再读全文,核对答案。
二.阅读理解题型及解题技巧
从近几年的中考阅读理解情况看,短文体裁多样,题材各异,文章涉及科学知识、社会文化、政治历史、人文环境和日常生活等方面,
充分体现其时代性、实用性。短文难度逐年加大。常见题型有主旨题、细节题、推断题、猜测词义题和正误判断题。
做阅读理解练习应先看问题,弄清考点。在阅读短文之前,快速浏览问题,以便在阅读短文时做到心中有数,快速、准确地捕捉所要信息。先易后难。做题时不必拘泥于书中所呈现的语篇顺序,应遵循先易后难的原则。如可先做细节题再做推断题,因为细节题大多能直接从文中找到答案,而推断题则需对短文进行深层理解,再作判断。
(一)主旨题
主旨题主要考查学生对短文中心思想或作者意图的掌握。做此类题时,应通读全文,理解文章大意,充分理解主题句的意义。短文往往围绕主题句展开,主题句通常出现在短文第一句或最后一句。
(二)细节题
细节题是用来进一步表达主题,体现中心思想的,往往针对短文某个细节来设题。做此类题时,应快速捕捉信息,可能是一些事例、数字等,阅读时要有针对性。
(三)推断题
推断题就是根据某个事实推断结论,主要考查学生的理解力和推断力。这类推断通常包括:数据事实推断、常识推断以及作者的写作目的、态度和倾向等的推断。做此类题时,应根据短文中的.相关语句,对与事实有关的细节加以分析,找出线索,悟出字里行间的意思,反复比较,从而作出合乎逻辑的判断。
(四)猜测词义题
猜测词义题主要考查学生根据上下文正确判断灵活变化的词义能力。一般情况下,推断词义的题目中所出现的单词,大多数是学生未曾见过的生词,学生需要在该词出现的上下文中去寻找线索。通过阅读上下文,断定该词的真正含义,然后将这个释义代入文中,检查是否贴切,仔细比较直到得出该词的确切的含义。
1.通过因果关系猜词
通过因果关系猜词,首先是找出生词与上下文之间的逻辑关系,然后才能猜词。有时文章借助关联词(如because,as,since,for,so,thus,as a result,of course,therefore等等)表示前因后果。例如:
You shouldn't have blamed him for that,for it wasn't his fault.通过for引出的句子所表示的原因(那不是他的错),可猜出blame的词义是"责备"。
2.通过同义词和反义词的关系猜词
通过同义词猜词,一是要看由and或or连接的同义词词组,如happy and gay,即使我们不认识gay这个词,也可以知道它是愉快的意思;二是看在进一步解释的过程中使用的同义词,如Man has known something about the planets Venus,Mars,and Jupiter with the help of spaceships.此句中的Venus(金星)、Mars(火星)、Jupiter(木星)均为生词,但只要知道planets就可猜出这几个词都属于"行星"这一义域。通过反义词猜词,一是看表转折关系的连词或副词,如but,while,however等;二是看与not搭配的或表示否定意义的词语,如:He is so homely,not at all as handsome as his brother.根据not at all...handsome我们不难推测出homely的意思,即不英俊、不漂亮的意思。
3.通过构词法猜词
在阅读文章时,我们总会遇上一些新词汇,有时很难根据上下文来推断其词意,而它们对文章的理解又有着举足轻重的作用,此时,如掌握了一些常用的词根、前缀、后缀等语法知识,这些问题便不难解决了。
4.通过定义或释义关系来推测词义
例如:But sometimes,no rain falls for a long,long time. Then there is a dry period,or drought.
从drought所在句子的上文我们得知很久不下雨,于是便有一段干旱的时期,即drought,由此可见drought意思为"久旱","旱灾"。而a dry period和drought是同义语。这种同义或释义关系常由is,or,that is,in other words,be called或破折号等来表示。
5.通过句法功能来推测词义
例如:Bananas,oranges,pineapples,coconuts and some other kind of fruit grow in warm areas.假如pineapples和coconuts是生词,我们可以从这两个词在句中所处的位置来判断它们大致的意思。从句中不难看出pineapples,coconuts和bananas,oranges是同类关系,同属fruit类,因此它们是两样水果,准确地说,是菠萝和椰子。
6.通过描述猜词
描述即作者为帮助读者更深更感性地了解某人或某物而对该人或该物作出的外在相貌或内在特征的描写。例如:The penguin is a kind of sea bird living in the South Pole. It is fat and walks in a funny way. Although it cannot fly,it can swim in the icy water to catch the fish.从例句的描述中可以得知penguin是一种生活在南极的鸟类。后面更详尽地描述了该鸟类的生活习性。
(五)正误判断题
正误判断题主要考查学生对文章的具体事实、信息的理解能力。一般是根据文章的事实或细节,给出一个句子,判断其正误。这类题比较直接,难度相对较小。做此类题时,应先看题,后带着“问题”快速阅读短文,寻找所需要的信息。
;『玖』 英语阅读的三个步骤
英语阅读的三个步骤:略读短文,把握方向;浏览问题,有的放矢;分析判断,确定答案。
第一步:略读短文,把握方向
用尽量短的时间扫视短文,特别留意每段的第一句和末段的最后一句。因为各段的主题句往往在句首,而文章的最后一句很可能是概括总结。略读的目的是掌握短文的主旨大意,做到对全文的内容心中大致有数,有一个思考的方向。
第三步:分析判断,确定答案
在完成上面两步的基础上,对问题逐一解答。需要注意的是:要是文章内容涉及自己熟悉的题材和知识范畴,在选项时绝对不能单凭自己的主观判断解决问题。因为文章考的是你对该篇的阅读理解能力,而不是你的某种知识,因此选项不能脱离文章的题意。
