Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed , the word has had many different meanings.

16、“Cool”can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street , maybe you will say , “Its cool. ”You may think , “Hes so cool , ”when you see your favorite footballer. We all maximize the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as

17、“new”or “surprising”. Heres an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used . A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited . On one students paper was just the one sentence , “Its so cool .”Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and fe

18、lt. But the story also shows a scarcity of words. Without“cool”, some people have no wordsto show the same meaning . So it is quite important to keep some credibility . Can you thinkof many other words that make your life as colourful as the word“cool”? I can . And I think they are also very cool. 注

19、:maximize擴(kuò)大；waterfall瀑布；scarcity缺乏；credibility 可信性；suggests暗示 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇正確答案: 1. We know that the word “cool”has had _. A. only one meaning B. no meanings C. many different meanings D. the same meaning 2. In the passage , the word “express”means “_”. A. see B. show C. know D. feel 3. If you are _ some

21、 be used instead of many words B. usually means something interesting C. can make your life colourful D. may not be as cool as it seems 答案: C B A C D 閱讀理解要求: 生詞不超過2，每分鐘5060個(gè)詞，理解正確率70 題材:人物傳記、寓言故事，活動(dòng)記述，簡(jiǎn)單科普小品及部分應(yīng)用文(信函、便條、簡(jiǎn)單表格和標(biāo)志) 閱讀理解題的考查內(nèi)容 作為一種綜合性很強(qiáng)的題目，閱讀理解題主要考查以下幾個(gè)方面的內(nèi)容: 1. 考查文章的主旨和大意。 包括對(duì)文章主題的理解，對(duì)

22、文章中心大意的理解，對(duì)作者意圖或文章中人物觀點(diǎn)的理解，以及從文章內(nèi)容中可推斷出的結(jié)論和作者的弦外之音等。 2. 考查文章的細(xì)節(jié)和事實(shí)。 包括事實(shí)識(shí)別、有關(guān)數(shù)字方面的計(jì)算或識(shí)圖、排列次序等。 3. 考查對(duì)文章中詞語的意思或句子意義的理解。 這些詞句一般不只是體現(xiàn)其表層涵義，而往往具有深層意義，同學(xué)們要根據(jù)文章的上下文來判斷其意義，或根據(jù)句子的語法關(guān)系分析，并挖掘其含義。 4. 考查擬選題目的能力。 文章標(biāo)題的擬選不但取決于文章的內(nèi)容，而且還取決于標(biāo)題的特點(diǎn)。英語文章標(biāo)題的特點(diǎn)一般是省略冠詞、be動(dòng)詞或作定語用的人稱代詞，且多以短語或簡(jiǎn)單句為主。選擇標(biāo)題的一般原則是:一要切題，即概括出全文的主旨；

23、二是要簡(jiǎn)潔，即文字要簡(jiǎn)單明了。 “閱讀理解”的解題步驟與思路點(diǎn)撥 1. 瀏覽全文，捕捉信息。 要求同學(xué)們通過瀏覽全文，掌握其大意，了解作者的觀點(diǎn)和寫作意圖。 2. 細(xì)讀思考題，分析信息。 通讀(瀏覽全文)短文后，已對(duì)文章或段落大意有所了解，再讀思考題，對(duì)要捕捉的信息進(jìn)行分析、推理，這樣便可先解答與主題思想有關(guān)的問題。然而瀏覽全文只能對(duì)大意有所了解，對(duì)于細(xì)節(jié)性的問題還得帶著問題通過復(fù)讀方法解決。 3. 復(fù)讀全文，抓住細(xì)節(jié)。 帶著問題去復(fù)讀，可縮小復(fù)讀的范圍，更便于捕捉關(guān)鍵的信息。復(fù)讀時(shí)可邊讀邊用鉛筆做些標(biāo)記，把有關(guān)的人物、事件、時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、起因(即5個(gè)W: who , what , when ,

24、 where , why )劃出來。例如:凡逢人物就圈起來，看完一數(shù)，有幾個(gè)圈就是幾個(gè)人，一目了然。經(jīng)過這樣的處理，你對(duì)文章的內(nèi)容和細(xì)節(jié)便清楚了，對(duì)其中矛盾的產(chǎn)生、發(fā)展和解決心里就會(huì)有底了。 另外，在復(fù)讀全文時(shí)，還應(yīng)特別注意首段或每一自然段的首句，以及結(jié)尾句。因?yàn)槎涛牡氖拙浜褪锥瓮亲髡咭f明的對(duì)象或事件的起因；或作者闡述自己的觀點(diǎn)；或事件發(fā)生的時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)與人物的聯(lián)系。結(jié)尾句、段是事件的結(jié)論或作者表達(dá)的態(tài)度、意圖、目的等。這樣一來便容易抓住中心，為準(zhǔn)確、快速地解題打下良好的基礎(chǔ)。 4. 解答問題，選定答案。 對(duì)那些明顯的，有把握的題可以斷然圈定。遇到不會(huì)做的問題可暫時(shí)不做，把每個(gè)問題閱讀完畢

25、，等會(huì)做的題已做完，然后再回頭做剩下的題目。在做題時(shí)，如果遇到困難，再重新查閱。這次復(fù)讀，要針對(duì)問題的要求，抓住重點(diǎn)，一次求得正確答案。 5. 再讀全文，核對(duì)答案。 這是最后一步，也是重要的一步，不能疏忽。這一步驟要用全文的主題思想統(tǒng)率各思考題，把我們?cè)陂喿x和答題時(shí)所得到的信息歸納整理一遍后重新再讀一遍短文，檢查答案，看是否前后一致；意義和語言知識(shí)是否和原文相符；是否符合邏輯等。發(fā)現(xiàn)前后矛盾、遺漏要點(diǎn)等錯(cuò)誤，要立即糾正。 值得一提的是，改正原來選定的答案，一定要慎之又慎。因?yàn)樵谧鲞^一段時(shí)間題目之后，大腦已有些疲勞，如果不慎可能會(huì)把本來選對(duì)的題目更改錯(cuò)。這也就要求同學(xué)們要相信自己的第一感覺，不可

26、輕易改動(dòng)答案。一定要有充分的理由，腦海中有那么一種“柳暗花明又一村”的感覺或者覺得眼前一亮，有種豁然開朗的境界，這才可改動(dòng)答案，否則，十之八九會(huì)將本已做對(duì)的試題改錯(cuò)，下場(chǎng)后叫苦不迭，結(jié)果卻于事無補(bǔ)。 做閱讀理解題應(yīng)注意的事項(xiàng) 1. 忌不帶問題進(jìn)行閱讀。 做閱讀理解題時(shí)，應(yīng)先把文章后面所給的考查題瀏覽一遍，然后帶著這些問題進(jìn)行閱讀。邊閱讀邊選出考查表層情況問題的答案，從而可大大提高閱讀效率。 2. 忌草率行事。 在設(shè)計(jì)理解題時(shí)，設(shè)計(jì)者往往在四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中設(shè)置一個(gè)似是而非的答案。這樣，答案的干擾性就特別強(qiáng)，非常容易迷惑考生。如果在發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)看似正確的答案時(shí)就草率定案，往往會(huì)掉進(jìn)設(shè)計(jì)者設(shè)置的陷阱里。處理的

27、方法是:對(duì)所給四個(gè)備選答案進(jìn)行分析、比較，在理解閱讀材料內(nèi)容的基礎(chǔ)上進(jìn)行旁敲側(cè)擊，去偽存真，方可選出正確答案。 3. 忌憑主觀印象。 少數(shù)閱讀不明確的題目只需根據(jù)生活常識(shí)就可選出答案，而絕大多數(shù)試題則不然，考生必須忠實(shí)于原文來選定答案。這就要求考生在做后一種測(cè)試題時(shí)，一定要排除自身的生活經(jīng)驗(yàn)、經(jīng)歷和已有的知識(shí)等主觀因素的干擾，按照文章實(shí)際反映的情況來選擇答案，切不可想當(dāng)然。 4. 忌囫圇定案。 所謂囫圇定案是指考生在未完全讀懂文章時(shí)就匆忙將答案選定，結(jié)果往往會(huì)選錯(cuò)答案，等后來發(fā)現(xiàn)時(shí)再作改動(dòng)，結(jié)果弄得試卷非常不整潔，以致于影響自己的成績(jī)。因此，對(duì)于尚未讀懂的地方，如果時(shí)間允許的話，一定要慢速多讀

28、幾遍，仔細(xì)揣摩，直到弄個(gè)水落石出再定答案。 5. 忌忽略時(shí)間。 做閱讀理解題時(shí)，要從整體上控制時(shí)間，時(shí)間的分配要根據(jù)文章的難易程度來決定。文中一兩處沒弄懂的地方可以暫時(shí)放置起來，等把全部題目做完了，再回過頭來處理。因?yàn)樽鐾陝e的題目，自己的心情相對(duì)放松了，這時(shí)往往會(huì)產(chǎn)生新的思路、新的靈感。即使做完試卷后所剩時(shí)間無幾了，再把所剩下的題目猜測(cè)一下也不晚，因?yàn)檫@時(shí)還有選對(duì)的可能性?？陀^信息題與主觀判斷題例析 中考閱讀理解題一般有兩種層次的試題:一種是客觀信息題，即從閱讀材料中直接獲取試題考查的要點(diǎn)；另一種是主觀信息題，即:試題的答案不能直接從原文中找到，必須經(jīng)過推理和判斷才能回答。顯然，第二種試題的難

29、度一般大于第一種。下面就列舉幾種題型并舉例分析其解題技巧。(一)客觀信息題 所謂“客觀信息”，是指在供“閱讀理解”的短文中客觀存在的事實(shí)?？陀^信息的答案一般都可以在原文中找到。一般來說，應(yīng)在短文中找出相關(guān)信息的位置，確定試題測(cè)試的考點(diǎn)。當(dāng)然，有的試題還得對(duì)原文所提供的事實(shí)“去偽存真”，進(jìn)行一定程度的比較，才能做出正確的選擇。完成客觀信息題應(yīng)注意以下三點(diǎn): 1. 辨認(rèn)事實(shí)，注意細(xì)節(jié) 2021年北京中考“閱讀理解”題短文(A)中有這樣一句話: There would be a school party on Friday evening . The girls were talking about

30、 what they were going to wear. 短文后設(shè)有如下一個(gè)問題: On Friday evening there would be _. A. a school party B. a school meeting C. a sports meeting D. a birthday party 解題指導(dǎo)此題的題干On Friday evening there would be _. 如果與原文中敘述的事實(shí):There would be a school party on Friday evening. 相比較，可以說是“大同小異”。二者的差異僅是詞序不同?？忌绻苷_理解

31、原文中所敘述的事實(shí)，便不難看出空白處所缺少的正是A項(xiàng):a schoolparty。 又如該短文敘述的另一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié): The party was held on Friday evening . Groups of students arrived . The music began . The girls stood in a line on one side , and the boys on another side. 短文后有下面一個(gè)問題:What happened when the music began ? 與原文中敘述的細(xì)節(jié)The girls stood in a line on o

32、ne side , and the boys on another side. 相比較，選擇項(xiàng):D. The girls stood on one side , and the boys on another side. 最為接近。答案中僅缺少短語“in a line”(站成一列)，顯然，缺少這一短語，也不影響該事實(shí)的存在。 2. 同義轉(zhuǎn)換，著重內(nèi)涵 (1)詞句同義。例如: 2021年廣州中考“閱讀理解”題短文(A)中有這樣一句話: If you see a shark , swim slowly for the shore. 針對(duì)這句話短文后有下面一個(gè)問題: When a swimmer m

33、eets a shark , he should _. 此題的答案是:B. swim slowly to the shore. 解題指導(dǎo)根據(jù)此題的答案，不難看出:原文中的條件句(If you see a shark)在問句中轉(zhuǎn)換成了時(shí)間狀語從句(When a swimmer meets a shark)，原文中主體的動(dòng)作也由“see a shark”，轉(zhuǎn)換成了“meet a shark”，但是語意的內(nèi)涵并未發(fā)生變化，屬于同義句轉(zhuǎn)換。其答案swim slowly to the shore與原文中的swim slowly for the shore也完全同義。 (2)語段同義。例如: 2021年上

34、海中考“閱讀理解”題短文(A)中有這樣兩段話: Sally was a college student . It was going to be her mothers birthday soon . She wondered what she could buy her as a present. After she had looked for half an hour , she came into a shop that was selling cheap umbrellas , and decided to buy one , since her mother had lost he

35、r umbrella the month before. 短文之后有下面一道正誤判斷題:Sally wanted to buy an umbrella for her mother. 解題指導(dǎo) 盡管原文中沒有“Sally wanted to buy an umbrella for her mother. ”這句話。但是原文中提到:Sally 的母親快過生日了(It was going to be her mothers birthday soon. )，她很想為母親買件禮物(She wondered what she could buy her as a present. )。她后來發(fā)現(xiàn)商店賣

36、傘(she came into ashop that was selling umbrellas)，而她母親又需要一把雨傘(her mother had lost her umbrella the month before. )。上述兩段話所表達(dá)的內(nèi)容“Sally wanted to buy an umbrella for her mother. ”一語道破。顯然，二者用語雖然各異，但內(nèi)涵相同，所表達(dá)的意思完全吻合。 3. 把握數(shù)據(jù)，注意推算 中考“閱讀理解”中的數(shù)據(jù)推算并不要求高深的數(shù)學(xué)知識(shí)。在有關(guān)數(shù)據(jù)推算的試題中，根據(jù)短文所提供的數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行必要的運(yùn)算時(shí)所涉及的數(shù)學(xué)知識(shí)一般都比較簡(jiǎn)單，關(guān)鍵在于

37、理解原文。例如:2021年南京中考“閱讀理解”短文B中有這樣一道題涉及數(shù)據(jù)推算: I won a prize for one of my paintings when I was fourteen . That may be why I went to an art school four years later When I left school , I got some money . I hope to become a full-time craftswoman. 短文后有如下一個(gè)問題: When finishing school studies , the writer was a

38、bout _. A. 14 B. 16 C. 18 D. 21 解題指導(dǎo) 原文中提到:作者(The writer)14歲時(shí)曾因繪畫得獎(jiǎng)(I won a prize for one of my paintings when I was fourteen. )，四年之后進(jìn)美術(shù)學(xué)校(I went to art school four years later)。不難算出該生入校時(shí)的年齡為14418(歲)。針對(duì)這段話，試卷所提出的問題是:作者畢業(yè)時(shí)(When finishingschool studies)的年齡是多少。盡管短文沒有談到這所美術(shù)學(xué)校的學(xué)制，但是作者畢業(yè)時(shí)的年齡一定大于18歲，故干擾項(xiàng)A、

39、B、C均應(yīng)排除。于是，選擇項(xiàng)D是唯一可選的。該校的學(xué)制為3年(1821)，也是完全可能的。【模擬試題】A “Where are you going to spend your holiday ? ”Misha asked his friends when they were on their way home from school. “I dont know , ”Victor said . “My father and mother have not yet decided .
