新高考英語(yǔ)一輪復(fù)習(xí)練習(xí)考向25 閱讀理解之應(yīng)用文類(lèi)(原卷版)

考向25閱讀理解之應(yīng)用文類(lèi)【命題趨勢(shì)】1.考點(diǎn)趨勢(shì)：今后對(duì)語(yǔ)篇領(lǐng)悟能力的檢測(cè)仍是高考的重點(diǎn)和基本點(diǎn)，同時(shí)還需關(guān)注對(duì)主旨大意題和文章結(jié)構(gòu)題的考查。2.理解層次趨勢(shì)：表層意義理解題減少，深層含義理解題增多?？疾殡y度有所增加，由簡(jiǎn)單尋找信息向多層次細(xì)節(jié)推理的趨勢(shì)比較明顯。3.信息量和詞匯量：閱讀理解材料信息濃縮，詞匯總量減少，但對(duì)詞匯量的考查在加大，非考綱詞匯有所增加(主要為詞根加上前、后綴或有詞義轉(zhuǎn)化的詞)。旨在引導(dǎo)學(xué)生掌握詞匯的合成、派生和轉(zhuǎn)化，讓考生能通過(guò)上下文或構(gòu)詞法來(lái)理解詞匯的含義。《考試說(shuō)明》中＂根據(jù)上下文推斷單詞和短語(yǔ)的含義＂這一新要求預(yù)示對(duì)能力要求有所提高。4.句子的難度：長(zhǎng)句增多，句子難度加大。復(fù)合句、省略句、倒裝句和插入語(yǔ)等語(yǔ)言現(xiàn)象普遍。5.體裁和題材：繼續(xù)體現(xiàn)體裁和題材多樣化，并彰顯英語(yǔ)國(guó)家語(yǔ)言與文化特點(diǎn)，強(qiáng)化文化意識(shí)的滲透。題材涉獵廣泛，體現(xiàn)＂語(yǔ)言是文化的載體＂這一理念?！緫?yīng)試指導(dǎo)】應(yīng)用文是最貼近日常生活的文體，它包括通知、廣告、便條、申請(qǐng)書(shū)、個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)介、商品說(shuō)明與介紹、新聞報(bào)道等，形式多樣，題材各異，如圖示、表格等。英語(yǔ)《考試說(shuō)明》對(duì)＂讀＂的能力要求之一是：要求考生讀懂一般性話(huà)題的簡(jiǎn)短文字材料，例如公告、說(shuō)明、廣告以及書(shū)、報(bào)、雜志中的簡(jiǎn)短文章并能識(shí)別不同文體的特征。研讀近年全國(guó)各地的高考試題可以看出，應(yīng)用文是高考閱讀理解命題的重要體裁之一?，F(xiàn)簡(jiǎn)要介紹應(yīng)用文的特點(diǎn)、類(lèi)型和解題技巧。一、應(yīng)用文閱讀試題的文體特點(diǎn)應(yīng)用文不同于其他文體的文章，其目的是為了向讀者傳輸信息，措辭簡(jiǎn)潔明了，直截了當(dāng)。一般說(shuō)來(lái)，應(yīng)用文英語(yǔ)閱讀試題具有以下特點(diǎn)：1.選材特點(diǎn)信息量大，文句精煉，形式靈活，用最少的篇幅表達(dá)最大量的信息。2.內(nèi)容特點(diǎn)生活化，實(shí)用化，多樣化，如產(chǎn)品宣傳、服務(wù)介紹、通知、海報(bào)、啟示、招生招聘等。3.形式特點(diǎn)標(biāo)題醒目，重點(diǎn)突出，條理清晰，常用粗體字或各類(lèi)項(xiàng)目符號(hào)使文章的結(jié)構(gòu)更鮮明。4.語(yǔ)言特點(diǎn)人名、地名、專(zhuān)有名詞多；生詞多；縮略詞、祈使句、省略句多；結(jié)構(gòu)不完整。5.命題特點(diǎn)主要考查考生提取信息和處理信息的能力，既注重特定細(xì)節(jié)的篩選、類(lèi)比、綜合，又注重推理判斷題的考查，題目設(shè)置相對(duì)較容易。二、應(yīng)用文語(yǔ)篇主要類(lèi)型應(yīng)用文的類(lèi)型主要有：同主題廣告，混合型廣告，規(guī)則、通知、咨詢(xún)問(wèn)答、注意事項(xiàng)等，指南，書(shū)評(píng)、問(wèn)卷調(diào)查、告示、參觀須知、申請(qǐng)書(shū)、個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)介等。三、應(yīng)用文解題技巧點(diǎn)撥高考應(yīng)用文閱讀理解設(shè)題以細(xì)節(jié)理解題為主，因此，閱讀這類(lèi)文章時(shí)，應(yīng)該在整體把握文章結(jié)構(gòu)的前提下，主要注意細(xì)節(jié)信息。細(xì)節(jié)題的題干都是相應(yīng)原文的變形(如同義改寫(xiě)、詞性轉(zhuǎn)換等)，因此要找到答案一定要找到題干在原文中的出處，再把原文和選項(xiàng)相比較。做題時(shí)，根據(jù)所提問(wèn)題用尋讀、跳讀的方法可達(dá)到事半功倍的效果。同時(shí)，在閱讀時(shí)也要特別注意文中以粗體、大寫(xiě)、下劃線等方式加以提示的文字，因?yàn)檫@很有可能是文章的核心或某一部分內(nèi)容的概括。具體答題策略如下：1.先題后文先讀試題，了解試題考點(diǎn)；明確目的，快速捕捉，獲取信息。2.題干定向根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞到文中定位答案范圍，按照題目順序依次而下：?jiǎn)栴}與材料相同→對(duì)號(hào)入座；問(wèn)題與原文相同→同義替換、歸納事實(shí)等。3.生詞模糊遇到生詞；如與答題無(wú)關(guān)，直接跳過(guò)；涉及答題，則根據(jù)語(yǔ)境、構(gòu)詞法等猜詞。4.信息補(bǔ)全對(duì)于影響理解的省略句，可根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，將其補(bǔ)全?？傊?，應(yīng)用文類(lèi)型的閱讀文章一般說(shuō)來(lái)比較易理解，文章類(lèi)型以廣告形式居多，設(shè)問(wèn)根據(jù)文章的段落秩序，多以細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)理解為主，答案的尋找可以根據(jù)問(wèn)題中的關(guān)鍵字順藤摸瓜，輔以適當(dāng)?shù)耐评砼袛唷Ａ私饬藨?yīng)用文的措辭和內(nèi)容特點(diǎn)，我們?cè)趯?shí)踐中總結(jié)出解答應(yīng)用文試題的關(guān)鍵是：抓信息。提示：應(yīng)用文閱讀題做完后，不可輕易改答案，要相信第一感覺(jué)。因?yàn)榈谝淮谓忸}時(shí)思路最清晰，假如沒(méi)十分把握，以不改為好，防止弄巧成拙。全國(guó)高考英語(yǔ)考試說(shuō)明確指出，要求考生讀懂一般性話(huà)題的簡(jiǎn)短文字材料，例如公告、說(shuō)明、廣告以及書(shū)、報(bào)、雜志中的簡(jiǎn)短文章，這說(shuō)明了應(yīng)用文文體在高考英語(yǔ)中的重要性。這個(gè)特點(diǎn)在歷年高考試題中有明顯的印證，不管是全國(guó)高考卷，還是省區(qū)高考卷中基本每年都涉及應(yīng)用文文體的考查，這充分體現(xiàn)了＂為用而學(xué)，學(xué)以致用＂的新課程理念。因此，考生很有必要認(rèn)真研讀閱讀理解中應(yīng)用文的特征和命題特點(diǎn)，并掌握一定的解題方法。本文擬結(jié)合近年高考英語(yǔ)全國(guó)卷閱讀理解中所涉及的應(yīng)用文文體，幫助考生提高閱讀理解的解題能力。應(yīng)用文是在日常工作和生活中使用的文體，通常以實(shí)用性為目的、以真實(shí)性為基礎(chǔ)、以時(shí)效性為根本、以規(guī)范性為準(zhǔn)則。該文體一般可分為兩大類(lèi)：一類(lèi)是說(shuō)明性應(yīng)用文，包括廣告、啟事、海報(bào)、守則、公告、指南、個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)歷、備忘錄、摘要等；另一類(lèi)是敘述性應(yīng)用文，如書(shū)信、日記、便條、報(bào)告、請(qǐng)?zhí)取Ｄ康亩际窍蜃x者傳輸信息。高考試題主要涉及宣傳廣告、公告類(lèi)應(yīng)用文，偶爾也會(huì)有書(shū)信類(lèi)文章出現(xiàn)。從近三年高考全國(guó)卷閱讀理解中應(yīng)用文的話(huà)題分布情況可知，前一類(lèi)是應(yīng)用文命題的首選題材，其中包括廣告、海報(bào)和指南等。在高考英語(yǔ)閱讀理解中應(yīng)用文體的考查主要有如下幾個(gè)特點(diǎn)：1.就文體特點(diǎn)而言，應(yīng)用文主要是為了向讀者傳遞信息，措辭簡(jiǎn)潔明了，一般來(lái)說(shuō)，和所述問(wèn)題無(wú)關(guān)的文字不會(huì)出現(xiàn)。例如很多文章沒(méi)有標(biāo)題，甚至通篇沒(méi)有一個(gè)完整的句子，而是用詞、數(shù)字、縮寫(xiě)、短語(yǔ)等來(lái)替代。2.就選材特點(diǎn)來(lái)說(shuō)，信息量大，文句精練，形式靈活，用最小的篇幅表述最大量的信息。其中書(shū)信，招聘和商品銷(xiāo)售等廣告，交通運(yùn)輸時(shí)刻表，日記等的比例較大。其內(nèi)容特點(diǎn)表現(xiàn)為：生活化，實(shí)用化，多樣化。3.就形式特點(diǎn)而言，標(biāo)題醒目，重點(diǎn)突出，條理清晰，常用粗體字或各類(lèi)項(xiàng)目符號(hào)使文章結(jié)構(gòu)更鮮明。4.就語(yǔ)言特點(diǎn)來(lái)說(shuō)，文章充斥大量冗長(zhǎng)而生僻的專(zhuān)有名詞，如人名、地名、機(jī)構(gòu)名、組織名、書(shū)籍名、作品名等等，而且沒(méi)有漢語(yǔ)注釋。縮略詞、祈使句、省略句多。5.在行文方式方面，應(yīng)用文的每種文體都有固定的格式。敘述性應(yīng)用文采用一般記敘文的寫(xiě)作方法，無(wú)特別之處；說(shuō)明性應(yīng)用文的行文呈排列式，即以小標(biāo)題為單位逐一下行排列。6.就命題特點(diǎn)來(lái)說(shuō)，高考英語(yǔ)應(yīng)用文的設(shè)問(wèn)一般是按照文章段落的順序依次設(shè)置，主要考查考生提取信息和處理信息的能力，既考查對(duì)特定細(xì)節(jié)的選取、排除、類(lèi)比、綜合，又注重推理判斷題的考查，題目設(shè)置相對(duì)容易。具體講來(lái)主要有四大類(lèi)：(1)細(xì)節(jié)理解題，即要求考生對(duì)閱讀材料中的某一具體事實(shí)和細(xì)節(jié)進(jìn)行理解。這一題型常見(jiàn)的命題方式有事實(shí)認(rèn)定題、圖形辨認(rèn)題、數(shù)字運(yùn)算題等。(2)推理判斷題。這類(lèi)題主要考查考生根據(jù)文章的字面意思，通過(guò)分析語(yǔ)篇的邏輯關(guān)系，研究細(xì)節(jié)的暗示，推敲作者的態(tài)度，理解文章的寓意等。推理判斷題屬于主觀性較強(qiáng)的高層次閱讀理解題。(3)主旨大意題。該類(lèi)題主要考查考生對(duì)所讀材料中心思想的概括。其考查形式有很多，如概括標(biāo)題、主題、中心思想等。(4)詞義猜測(cè)題，即要求考生根據(jù)一定的上下文猜測(cè)生詞的詞義。廣告類(lèi)閱讀題的五大特點(diǎn)1.材料特點(diǎn)：大家知道，刊登廣告是要錢(qián)的，為了節(jié)省費(fèi)用，人們?cè)跀M寫(xiě)廣告時(shí)往往都希望用最少的篇幅表現(xiàn)最大量的信息，這就決定了廣告類(lèi)材料通常具有以下特點(diǎn)：信息量大，用詞簡(jiǎn)練，形式靈活。2.內(nèi)容特點(diǎn)：綜觀近幾年的高考英語(yǔ)閱讀理解題，其中廣告類(lèi)閱讀題內(nèi)容主要涉及的是與人們生活息息相關(guān)的信息，如產(chǎn)品宣傳、服務(wù)介紹、招生招聘等。3.形式特點(diǎn)：做廣告的主要目的就是要讓受眾了解并記住廣告的內(nèi)容，并為廣告上所刊登的內(nèi)容(產(chǎn)品或服務(wù)等)買(mǎi)單。為了達(dá)到這一目的，人們?cè)谠O(shè)計(jì)廣告時(shí)往往會(huì)做到：標(biāo)題醒目，重點(diǎn)突出，條理清楚。4.用詞特點(diǎn)：廣告類(lèi)閱讀材料的用詞有＂三多＂特點(diǎn)：一是人名、地名、專(zhuān)有名詞多；二是生詞多；三是縮略詞、省略句多。5.命題特點(diǎn)：廣告類(lèi)閱讀是近幾年高考英語(yǔ)閱讀理解最?？嫉念}材，在閱讀理解的選材中占有很大的比重。命題者的目的是要考查考生提取信息和處理信息的能力，所以命題的題型多是以獲取信息為主的細(xì)節(jié)理解題。應(yīng)用文主要設(shè)題類(lèi)型及特點(diǎn)1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題針對(duì)應(yīng)用文體裁的閱讀訓(xùn)練多出現(xiàn)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。應(yīng)用文不同于一般的文章，應(yīng)用文的措辭簡(jiǎn)潔明了、直截了當(dāng)，在閱讀時(shí)須重點(diǎn)注意細(xì)節(jié)信息，最好采取跳讀這種閱讀方法。如：活動(dòng)的具體時(shí)間和地點(diǎn)是什么？音樂(lè)會(huì)的具體舉辦時(shí)間是什么？所倡議的活動(dòng)是針對(duì)哪些人展開(kāi)的？這些細(xì)節(jié)問(wèn)題都是同學(xué)們?cè)陂喿x時(shí)需要特別注意的地方。常見(jiàn)的細(xì)節(jié)理解題的題干表達(dá)方式有“Whenisthesportsmeetinggoingtobeheld？”“Tysonwillinviteallofthefollowingexcept_______tohisbirthdayparty.”例如：TheincorrectdescriptionofLondonEyeisthat_______.A.itisoneoftheworld’stallestobservationwheelsB.youcanseeupto40kilometersawayinalldirectionsfromeachcapsuleC.ithas32capsulesandcarriesaround1，000visitorseverydayD.youcanenjoyafull360-degreepanoramawhenyouareatthetopofthewheel這是一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)理解題，由表格一中第二句“Ithas32capsules（密閉艙）andcarriesabout10，000visitorseveryday.”可知，是10，000不是1，000答案應(yīng)該選C。2.主旨大意題應(yīng)用文強(qiáng)調(diào)實(shí)用性，無(wú)論是信件、廣告、通知，還是倡議書(shū)、海報(bào)等，在閱讀時(shí)都應(yīng)該快速掌握其主旨大意。如：海報(bào)介紹的那部電影？通知的是哪個(gè)活動(dòng)？邀請(qǐng)哪些人參加什么活動(dòng)？這些都是主旨大意題考查的內(nèi)容。常見(jiàn)的主旨大意題的題干表達(dá)方式有“Theposterintroducesusto_______.”“Thee-mailmainlytellsusabout_______.”例如：Theadvertisementmainlymakepeople_______.A.givehelptothoseinneedB.notthrowawayusedclothesC.knowabouttheorganizationD.learntheuseofdonatedclothes這是一個(gè)主旨大意題，由表格一中的“Don’tthrowawayusedclothes.Usethemtohelpchangethelivesofothers.”可知答案應(yīng)該選A。3.觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題作者往往通過(guò)海報(bào)、廣告等形式的應(yīng)用文表明自己對(duì)于某事的態(tài)度，也可以通過(guò)通知、倡議書(shū)、邀請(qǐng)函等形式暗示自己對(duì)某次活動(dòng)的看法和態(tài)度。常見(jiàn)的觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題的題干表達(dá)方式有“Whatistheauthor’sattitudetowards...”“Whatdoestheauthorthinkofthe...？”例如：InAllison’sopinion，otherkidsofheragemay_______theirparents.A.haveproblemswithB.getonwellwithC.liketotalktoD.liketolistento這是一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題，從信中的第一段中“kidssaytheydon’tgetonwellwiththeirs”可知答案應(yīng)該選A。4.推理判斷題與記敘文和說(shuō)明文有所不同，應(yīng)用文閱讀中出現(xiàn)的推理判斷題?？疾槲恼碌某鎏幓蛘邅?lái)源，常見(jiàn)的題干表達(dá)方式有“Youcanfindthead_______.”“Wherewouldyouprobablyreadthenotice？”例如：Wecaninfer（推斷）fromtheadvertisementsthat_______.A.noneoftheorganizationacceptchildren’sclothesB.peoplecandonateusedclothesthroughouttheUSAC.someorganizationneedmoneytohelpsomepeopleD.somedonatedclotheswillbegiventocancerpatients這是一個(gè)推理判斷題，由表格二中第二句“Sales（銷(xiāo)售額）ofyourusedclotheswillsupport…”，由表格三中第二句“Salesfromusedclotheswillbenefit（有助于）”，由表格四中第二句“SalefromdonatedclotheswillhelptheBoysandGirlsClubinVenice，CA.”可知答案應(yīng)該選C?！緳z測(cè)訓(xùn)練】1LifeandHealthInsuranceRiskManagerWantedOurcompanyhaspartneredwithaninternationalinsurerandislookingforafull-timeriskmanagerwithresponsibilityfortheUKLifeandHealthInsurancebusiness.Theroleisinasmallriskteamandissuitedtoahigh-performingindividual.Responsibilities*Supportthechiefriskofficer;*Overseethereportingofhealthandliferisks;*Deliveradviceandcooperatewithsomestakeholders(利益相關(guān)者);*Assessrelevantrisksoftechnicalpricingandreinsurance;*Continuouslycontributetothecapitalrequirements,internalmodelreviewanddatamodelprocesses.KeyrequirementsTheindividualwillbeaqualifiedlifeorhealthmanagerwhohasexperienceinriskmanagementorconsulting.YoumustworkintheUK---theseruleshavechangedrecently,sowhenapplying,pleasestateyourqualificationtoworkintheUK.(E.g.Britishpassport,Irishpassport,ILR,settled-status,etc.)Salary￡70,000-￡90,000peryearandperformance-basedsalary.ContactinformationThedeadlineforapplicationsis14thMay,2021.Ifyouareinterested,pleaseapplyhereorcontacttheassociateconsultantAbiLogeswaranatHFGInsuranceRecruitment(招聘).Signintoapplyinstantly.We'dlovetosendyouinformationaboutJobsandServicesfromCareersinRbyemail.Wedonotshareyourinformationwiththirdpartiesformarketingpurposes.ByapplyingforajoblistedonCareersinRyouagreetoourtermsandconditionsandprivacypolicy.Youshouldneverberequiredtoprovidebankaccountdetails.Ifyouare,pleaseemailus.1.Whatdoweknowaboutthejob?A.Ithuntsforachiefriskofficer.
