英語(yǔ)II(1)期末復(fù)習(xí)---閱讀理解練習(xí)題深圳電大蘇曼華閱讀部分的短文類型涉及應(yīng)用文、描述文、記敘文、說(shuō)明文或議論文等。在做閱讀理解題時(shí),要善于運(yùn)用有效的閱讀方法,用較快的速度了解文章的大意,然后回答文后的題目。這里有幾種方法供參考:略讀:這種閱讀方式用于快速瀏覽,了解文章大意。不能逐詞閱讀,而是按意群掃視,連貫閱讀;不要拘泥于個(gè)別詞句的理解,特別是對(duì)于回答問(wèn)題無(wú)關(guān)緊要的詞,而要力求掌握通篇的中心意思;不是通過(guò)翻譯來(lái)理解,而是通過(guò)閱讀了解上下文的意思。略讀時(shí)應(yīng)特別注意文章的開(kāi)始段、結(jié)束段、每段的首句和結(jié)尾句以及段落之間的連接詞語(yǔ)和文章中的信息詞,它們往往是了解文章的關(guān)鍵。查讀:這種閱讀方式適于尋找具體細(xì)節(jié)。它的目的非常明確,即找到所需要的信息。平常生活中我們對(duì)這一方法并不陌生。例如從人群中找出你結(jié)識(shí)的朋友,從貨架上找出你想購(gòu)買(mǎi)的商品,在書(shū)架上尋找一本你要找的書(shū),從一本指南中找出某個(gè)單位的地址等,都是運(yùn)用這種方法。在查讀時(shí),目光要自上而下,一目數(shù)行地尋視與答題相關(guān)的詞句,與此無(wú)關(guān)的內(nèi)容要不久掠過(guò)。當(dāng)回答who,when,where等有關(guān)文章細(xì)節(jié)時(shí),我們用這種方法不久就能找到答案。細(xì)讀:對(duì)于某些需要判斷或思考的問(wèn)題,先要找到文章中的相關(guān)段落,然后逐句閱讀,特別對(duì)關(guān)鍵詞、關(guān)鍵句要仔細(xì)推敲,以便對(duì)其有較準(zhǔn)確的理解,并弄清字里行間潛在的意思。對(duì)不結(jié)識(shí)的單詞可根據(jù)上下文或自己的背景知識(shí)來(lái)推斷其含義。對(duì)難以看懂的長(zhǎng)句要借助語(yǔ)法知識(shí)來(lái)理解。對(duì)復(fù)雜的修飾語(yǔ)、插入句、倒裝句或較生僻的詞語(yǔ),假如不影響回答問(wèn)題,不必深究。對(duì)的把握句與句之間的關(guān)系:碰到讀不懂的句子只要繼續(xù)往下讀,往往就能找到理解該句的線索。要學(xué)會(huì)辨認(rèn)句群,這樣有助于你更準(zhǔn)確地把握一些難句所傳遞的信息,也有助于理清整個(gè)文章的脈絡(luò)。一定要抓住文章中的關(guān)聯(lián)詞。帶著問(wèn)題閱讀:在做閱讀理解題之前,先看文章后的問(wèn)題,弄清需要回答的問(wèn)題,然后帶著這些問(wèn)題邊閱讀邊找出答案。與答案無(wú)關(guān)的內(nèi)容可略過(guò),由于考試時(shí)閱讀的目的很明確,就是為了回答問(wèn)題。有時(shí)并不需要完全理解全文內(nèi)容也能回答問(wèn)題。無(wú)論采用以上哪種方法,在考試時(shí)都應(yīng)一方面快速瀏覽文章及文章后的題目,然后到文章中查找相關(guān)的信息,這就是我們通常所講的skimming(略讀)與scanning(快速查讀)技巧的緊密結(jié)合。以下是期末考試的閱讀理解練習(xí)題閱讀下列短文,從A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選擇一個(gè)對(duì)的答案Passage1(Unit3Activity6)20237月題TherehavebeenchangesinallsortsofdifferentareasofBritishsociety.InrecentyearsintheUKwehavehadaverylargeincreaseinthenumberofcoupleswhogetdivorced.After1969andtheDivorceLawReformActwehadaveryrapidincreaseinthenumberofdivorces.Therateincreasedsteadilyandinrecentyearshasincreasedmuchmorerapidly.Buttherearealsoquitealotofpeoplewhodoactuallygetmarried.AtpresentthemarriagerateintheUKisabout70percent,whichhasgonedownsincethenumberofpeoplewhomarryhasgonedownquitealotinthelast20years,butmoresignificantlyinthelast10years.Quitehighproportionsofpeoplenowlivetogetherwithoutmarrying,and,forexample,40percentofchildrenbornintheUKareborntocoupleswhoaren'tmarriedorareborntoloneparents.Therearequitealargenumberofloneparentfamilies,90percentoftheseareheadedbyawomanrat(yī)herthanaman.TheaveragefamilysizenowintheUKis1.8childrenpercouple,whichmeansthatthere'sbeenquiteadeclineinthebirthrateintheUKalongwithotherEuropeancountries.What
