㈡ 八年级英语阅读理解的技巧和方法
初中英语相较于小学英语难度有增无减,那么八年级英语阅读理解的技巧和方法有哪些呢。以下是由我为大家整理的“八年级英语阅读理解的技巧和方法”,仅供参考,欢迎大家阅读。
八年级英语阅读理解的技巧和方法
1. 首段和尾段
一篇文章的主题句、中心思想往往出现在文章的首段或者尾段。
许多文章开门见山地在第一段就提出了要说明的对象或者要论证的观点,而文章的最后一段一般也会对全文的说明和论证进行总结。
策略:
通过一些标志性词汇或者短语,我们可以更快地找到这些总结性句子,如:
all in all, in short, to conclude, in consequence, in summary, in a word, as a result, therefore, accordingly, thus 等。
主题句考查了考生是否能够把握文章大意的能力,因此是常考且几乎是必考的一个考点。
2. 长难句
长难句是阅读理解的主要难度所在,其中包含了同位语、插入语、定语、不定式、分词、各种从句等,有的句子甚至长达好几行。这些复杂的句型也往往成为了出题的重点所在。
策略:
加强训练自己对付长难句的能力,平时有意识地去分解这些句子,理解其中的指代关系和句子层次。
3. 列举处
标志性的词汇包括:
First, Second, Third… ; Firstly, Secondly, Thirdly… Finally; First of all, Then, In addition, Further, Furthermore, Besides, Moreover…
策略:
把这些词圈起来,考题中一般会出现四个选项对比,这样非常好在文章中找。
4. 举例处
例子往往与作者的说明与论述有很大的关联,具有重大的意义,因此也成为了考题出处的热点。这种题目在文章中的线索非常明显,一般都带有如下的标志性词汇:
for example, for instance, take … as an example, as, such as, like等。
策略:
一般文章举例处的前一句或者前几句就是与该例子相关的作者论点,所以在做此类题目的岩厅时候就需要追本溯源地往前读,才能保证所选答案的正确率。
5. 因果关系处
中枣橡表示因果关系的句子是中考英语命题者所青睐的出题来源,因为因果句阐述了两个事件或者事实之间的内在联系,出题者为了考查考生的阅读能力和逻辑分析能力,经常会把含有因果关系的句子倒过来考,因此选项中因变成了果、果变成了因,考生需要注意辨别实际的因果关系,防止受到迷惑。
表示因果关系的词语有:
because, because of, so, for, since, as, thus, therefore, consequently, in consequence, as a result; result from, result in, cause, originate from, lead to, attribute to, derive from; base, basis, reason, result, consequence 等。
6. 转折、对比、类比处
文章的转折也是体现作者观点和文章主题的地方,一些明显的转折词包括:
but, however, on the contrary, yet, as a matter of fact, in fact, actually 等。
策略:
转折词前后的意思一般来说都是相反的,而作者会偏重其中的某一方。因此,在阅读过程中看到转折词,最好能作上标志以方便做题时候的查找。
特别需要指出的是,只要文章第一段中出现一组对比的概念或事物,这个地方往往会成为考题的命题重点。
7. 特殊词汇处
中考英语阅读试题中经常考查考生对于一些词语和词汇的理解,这些卖旁特殊词汇包括了平时不经常使用的生僻词、常见词语平时不经常用到的意思或搭配、以及关系代词等。
策略:
解题关键在于读懂词汇所在文章位置的上下文,从而推断中其意思。
8. 数字和年代
中考阅读中经常出现对于数字和年代等细节的考查,看似容易,但是考生经常由于疏忽大意而失掉这些最容易的分数。
其中要注意以下几点原则:
① 如果出现需要进行运算的题目,一般来说文章的原始数据不是正确答案;
② 如果答案中的四个数字或者时间都与文章的某一个部分相符合,那么要注意这些数字和时间所对应的不同问题,只选择与题目相关的那个数据;
③ 要注意年份和世纪之间的差别,比如1999年就是20世纪,2009年就是21 世纪,也就是说世纪的数字是年份的前两个数字加1。
9. 专有名词
所谓的专有名词包括人名、地名、机构名称、书籍文章影视作品的名称以及其他专有名词。在阅读文章的过程中,每遇到专有名词可以用铅笔作上标记,以便如果在题目中出现相应专有名词可以进行快速定位。
10. 最高级词汇
最高级词汇以及其他一些表示唯一性的词汇由于其意义的绝对性,因而不容易产生歧义,所以也经常成为出题对象。
这些词语包括形容词和副词的最高级,以及以下词汇:
only, sole (solely), mere (merely), sheer, simply, entirely, absolutely, just, always, forever, never, none, must, all, any (anyone, anybody, anywhere) 等。
11.引用处
说明文或者议论文中经常引用他人的观点来支持、佐证作者的观点。引文有可能是从正面来支持作者的观点,也有可能是作者通过驳斥反面观点从而论证自己的观点。
因此,引文间接地表达了作者自己的观点,有一定的隐蔽性和迷惑性,所以也是出题考查的热点地区,通常会考查考生的推理能力和对作者态度观点的判断能力。
12.段首和段尾
无论是说明文还是议论文,一篇文章往往会分成几个部分或层次进行说明和论证,每一个段落一般都是一个部分或者层次。
英美人写文章的逻辑性非常强,文章结构都非常规范,因此每个段落的首句和尾句也经常是该段落的中心思想句,因此也是出题的重点区域,涉及的问题包括了中心思想题、推理判断题和细节题等。
下文也将会提到,在进行快速阅读的时候,考生只需要浏览文章每一段的第一句话就大致能够判断这篇文章的中心思想和主旨。
13.特殊标点符号
有一些特殊的标点符号也经常成为出题的对象,因此考生应该对以下标点符号的用法较为熟悉:冒号、括号、破折号以及引号。
逗号:两个逗号之间的内容、或者一个逗号后面的内容,通常都起到补充说明第一个逗号前面内容的作用。
冒号:冒号后面的内容通常都是用来解释说明前面的内容,例如前面是抽象的概念后面就是对这个概念的具体说明。
括号:括号中间的内容通常用来解释或补充说明括号前面的内容。
破折号:两个破折号之间的内容、或者一个破折号后面的内容,通常表示解释说明或者补充说明。
引号:表示引用他人的观点,一般用来从正面或者反面支持作者的观点。
拓展阅读:初中提升英语成绩的方法
一:听力
1、首先要充分利用好英语老师在课堂上的语言。一般的英语老师在英语课堂上都是尽可能地利用英语来组织教学,无论老师说多说少,同学们都可以把这当成练习听力的好机会。在听得不大明白的情况下,要仔细听上下文,从老师前后的语言中来猜测、判断语意,或是根据老师的手势、眼神、动作等来分析,千万不要因为听不大懂而放弃。如果能利用好老师的课堂上的语言,对你的听力会有不少的帮助。
2、在这一年里,充分利用国内或国外的优秀的英语广播和电视节目等,选择比较适合自己水平的节目,看比较简单的英语原声电影等等。现在有很多电视频道和广播都有针对中学生开辟的栏目,同学们不妨每天定期收看,并作好听力记录,把能够听懂的东西记录下来,也可以把不明白的句子或单词记录下来(尽可能地记录),等节目结束后去揣摩或问老师。坚持下来,就会在无形中既提高了听的能力,还能有助于增长词汇量和知识,是帮助你打下牢固听力基础的较好方法,并建立语言沟通能力和自信心的有效途径。
3、在泛听的基础上,必须安排一定的时间进行专项、综合和强化性听力训练。选择难易适度的材料,先易后难,先慢后快地进行。
4、注意做题方法。在做听力题时,一定要做到听前先把听力试卷全部看一遍,尤其是听对话和听短文这两种类型,以大概掌握主题内容,缩小听力范围;听第一遍时,不要急于做答,应仔细把全文听完,尽可能弄明白文章在讲什么;听第二遍的过程中,可以适当地做一些记录,如:时间、地点、数字、人物、天气等等,同时把可能正确的答案做上记号,以便听第三遍时检验核对。
二:阅读
1、提高阅读能力的最有效办法是进行广泛的课外阅读,选择不同文体和不同题材文章,培养自己的语感和良好的阅读习惯,丰富知识。制定切实可行的阅读计划,每天或每周几天都要坚持不懈地进行课外阅读。
2、重视阅读材料的选择。不单从兴趣出发,相反,有意识地读一些自己不甚了解,甚至不大感兴趣的科普、历史、哲学等方面的文章。另外,针对不同的训练目的,可以选取内容难度不同的阅读材料。例如,进行快速阅读时,可以选择生词量较小、篇幅较短的文章;而重点在扩大词汇量、拓宽视野的阅读训练,就可以选择英文杂志或报纸。此外,还要注重循序渐进,根据不同阶段自己英语水平的变化选择相应的阅读材料。
3、进行有效的阅读方法训练。可以利用老师布置的阅读文段,也可以利用自己选择的文章来进行训练。同学们首先要善于培养自己对文章上、下文和指代关系的推理能力,要学会领悟词义及判断句子之间逻辑关系的能力以及抓住关键词语捕捉信息的能力。
4、阅读时不但要领会文章的意思,还要深刻理解文章的思想内涵,预测故事的结尾,对人物关系、人物品质以及事件发生的时间、地点、过程等做出准确的判断。
三:写作
英语写作能力也是灵活运用知识的一种综合能力。
1、中国有句古话,叫“熟读唐诗三百首,不会吟诗也会作”。同样,要使自己具有较强的写作能力,首先应该熟读和背诵一些句型和短文。许多同学写出来的语言根本不符合英语的语言习惯,相当一部分人有对照中文逐字翻译的不良习惯,不去理会中英文的差异。大量的背诵和阅读是提高写作能力的有效办法,同学们若有大量的现成语言积累在脑海里,自己写起文段来,就可以做到脱口而出,或是模仿、套用,甚至发挥。
2、可以采用循序渐进、灵活多样的练习方式。从根据提示词写单句开始,到写单句,然后到写几句话,最后到写流利的文段。
3、尝试多种形式的写作,如短信、说明、通知、便条、明信片、看图写作、根据表格或记录写短文等。
4、在练习时,要充分了解所提供的情景素材,注意使用常见的连接词来表示顺序和逻辑关系,使句意表达连贯、语法正确、符合逻辑。还要注意字母的大小写和标点符号。
四:语言知识
听、说、读、写四种技能相辅相成,但是要想使这四种技能做到扎实严谨,少不了必须的英语语言知识。语言知识是英语的重要组成部分,是为听、说、读、写这四种能力服务的,是它们得以提高的有力保证。关于语言知识的学习,同学们可以尝试:
1、在现有知识的基础上,先亲自动手,对两年来教材中所要求掌握的基本语言知识先做一个系统的归纳,如时态、词类、简单句的结构以及一些常见的或重要的句型。在进行整理的过程中,切忌把语言现象作为孤立的语言来总结,必须把他们放在语境和上下文中来体会和总结。例如在总结一般过去式时,不妨把你在教材中和平时的阅读中所见到的一般过去式的句子有选择地摘录下来,然后对他们的结构、用法和变化进行比较,最后你对一般过去式的理解就不会是机械的了。
2、在自己总结之后,对所学的语言知识有了一个自觉的回顾,但是由于同学们的经验和水平有限,肯定会有丢失和偏颇之处,因此笔者建议大家在随后的初三阶段选择一本适合初三学生阅读的语法书,边看边对照一下自己先前的总结,在得到系统、全面、正确的知识的同时,看看有那些是理解不当或是学过但已经遗忘的知识。
3、可以结合语法书,选做一些适合的语法练习,以加深和巩固语言知识。
4、适当而科学的语法练习是必要的,但是千万不能为了学语言而学语言,为了学语法而学语法,为了学词汇而学词汇,忽略了学习英语的目的是帮助自己更好地组织思想,更好地交流思想。同学们应该在了解语法的大体知识的基础上,尽快转到阅读、听力、口语、写作的学习上。一味地死抠语法也是不可能学好英语的。

Once upon a time there lived an old man. He had three sons. One day, he called them together and said, "Sons, I will die soon. To my oldest son I give half my camels, to my second, one-third(三分之一), and to my youngest, one-ninth (九分之一)." Soon after that he died.

The three sons thanked the old man and took his camel. Now they found it was easy to do as their father wished, The oldest took half- that was nine camels; the second took one-third, that was six; and the youngest took one-ninth, that was two.

We know mosquitoes very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.
No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide if she loves you. She? Yes, she. The male mosquito doesn’t bite! Only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn’t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others!
If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. When the itch begins, she has flown away.
And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She wants to find a place to have a good rest. There, in a tree or on a wall, she begins to lay eggs, hundreds of eggs.

Do you know why different animals or pests(昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收获)time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人) cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
( )56.From the passage we learn that locusts________.
A. are small animals
B. are easily found by birds
C. are dangerous to their enemies
D. change their colours to protect themselves
( )57.How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?
A. They run away quickly.
B. They have the colours much like their enemies.
C. They hide themselves by day and appear at night.
D. They have to move quietly.
( )58.Bears and lions can keep safe because________.
A. they have the colours much like the trees
B. they move quietly
C. they like brown and grey colours
D. they live in forests
( )59.Why can the kind of fish live up to now?

Before you ever begin to think about the process(过程)of studying, you must develop a schele(计划). If you don’t have a schele or plan for studying, then you will not have any way of saving you valuable(宝贵的) time when the unexpected(突发事件) comes up. A good, well-thought-out schele can be a lifesaver. It’s up to you to learn how to develop a schele that meets your needs, revise it if necessary, and most important, follow it.

Before you plan a timetable for studying, analyze(分析)your weekly class schele. Count the number of class outside class assignments. Distribute your study hours rather than put them all together.

In some countries in Western Europe, such as France, Spain and Britain, the countryside is changing.
Life has become difficult for many villages, and some villages are disappearing. There are a number of reasons for this. Firstly, young people from villages usually want to live somewhere more lively and they often move to the towns and do not return. Secondly, people move to the cities to find work, as there are often very few jobs in the countryside. Sometimes villagers remain because people from the cities have bought a “second home” in the village, where they come and stay at weekends. The price of homes goes up and people from the area cannot afford to buy a house there. Another problem is that it is becoming more and more difficult for farmers to make money from their farms, so they sell their land and find another job.
All these things mean that many villages in Western Europe are fighting to survive. We can only hope that they will remain. The countryside would be a sadder and uglier place without them.
1. What is the main idea of the passage?

2. What problems do these villages have? Find at least two answers.

从前在大山农村里有一位诚实的男孩。他很喜欢读书,但是他的家太穷不能给他买书。离村子很远的地方住着一个有钱人,他有一间图书馆。馆里有各种各样的书。他喜欢跟诚实的孩子交朋友。当男孩听到这个消息,他走了很长一段路去看他并且恳求他借自己一些书。有钱人对男孩说:“如果你把书保持清洁并且及时还给我的话你想借多少都行。”多年来男孩总是在规定时间里把书读完,并且从来都没有迟还书。男孩以这种方式阅读了很多书籍,并且在他长大之后他成为了一位伟大的科学家。
