When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.
Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important proct in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export.
Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.

Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri?鄄beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.
At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri?鄄beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.
Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.
61. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.
A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin
C. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice
62. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.
A. spend his holiday
B. find ways to grow better crops
C. do some research about the island
D. help the Javanese with their illness
63. Why did Christian Eijkman raise some chickens?
A. To eat them.
B. To carry out his experiments.
C. To give the Javanese a surprise.
D. To make money by selling them.
64. If a person doesn’t get enough vitamins in his diet, he’d better ______.
A. eat more rice B. eat more meat
C. eat some chicken D. eat vitamin pills
65. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. beri?鄄beri was caused by chickens
B. the Javanese didn’t like vitamins
C. Christian Eijkman’s experiment was successful
D. the Javanese’s disease was caused by a kind of germ

C ★★
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
66. The writer of this passage must be ______.
A. an American B. a Chinese
C. a professor D. a student
67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
68. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.
A. warmly welcomed at the airport
B. offered a ride to his home
C. treated hospitably at his home
D. treated to dinner in a restaurant
69. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A. strict with time B. serious with time
C. careful with time D. willing to spend time
70. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
A. Friendships between Chinese
B. Friendships between Americans
C. Americans’ hospitality
D. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships

D ★★★
The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
“I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can’t even understand a bit of music.”
“I’m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.”
But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.”
I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.
Attitudes are important. Whether they’re positive or negative, they’re rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (责怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.
This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (标准) for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.
71. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. A friend in need is a friend indeed
B. How to make friendship last for ever
C. You are who your friends are
D. Friends are the most important in one’s success

C. they’ll cover your shortcomings
D. they’ll help you achieve your goal
73. The musicians’ words at the beginning are written mainly to show ______.
A. the musicians’ living conditions are quite poor
B. people have poor taste in music
C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing
D. young people have greater chances of succeeding
74. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.
A. improve a lot in making more friends

A ★
Norm Pethrick, a 36-year-old man in Australia’s northern city Darwin, was praised on Thursday for jumping onto a crocodile’s back to save his wife Wendy at Litchfield National Park, a popular tourist spot southwest of Darwin, a local newspaper reported.
Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater.
Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.
Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (伤口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.
“This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.
He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”.
Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (细菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.

There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.

D ★★★
English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.
However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
71. According to the passage ______.
A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things
B. there should be egg in an eggplant
C. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree
D. boxing rings should be round
72. Which of the following is the correct plural?
A. Beeth. B. Geese. C. Meese. D. Tooth.
73. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?
A. A wise man and a wise guy.
B. Overlook and oversee.
C. Quite a lot and quite a few.
D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.
74. The underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “______”.
A. blow B. roll up C. get hurt D. finish
75. Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ______.
A. clever B. crazy C. lazy D. ll

我刚才也没注意多少字呀，结构粘贴了很多，系统提示我内容太多，我就删掉了一些。阅读还有很多，你要是用的话就和我联系。

B. 如何做好英语阅读理解型题

１、要严格按文章的内容来回答问题。
有时恰好测试的内容是你所熟悉的题材，这时千万不要按照你对这种题材已具有的知识来想当然地回答问题。要认真阅读眼前材料各方面的信息。
2、带着问题读文章。
阅读文章前最好把文章后面的问题先看一遍，做到心中有数，然后带着问题去阅读短文，边读边捕捉文中与问题相关的信息，初步掌握文章大意和作者意图。
3、把握住五个“W”和一个“H”。
在速读全文，了解文意的基础上，理顺思路，摸清脉络，然后把着眼点转到文章的每一个段落上，尽快把握住文章的五个 “W” (who，where，when，what，why)和一个“H” (how)。把握住了这些，就算是抓住了整个事件的过程，即文章的细节，做题时就会收到事半功倍的效果。
4、抓住文章的主题。
一般来说，一篇短文往往是围绕一个中心思想展开的。短文的每个段落都有自己的主题句来表达其中心思想。因此在阅读短文时首先要找出本段的主题句，它一般在每段的开头，也有在一段的结尾的情况，或者隐含在段落中，这就要求同学们正确去判断。
5、阅读必须讲究速度。
在生词率低于5%的阅读材料中，一般阅读速度在每分钟60～80个单词。为达到快速阅读并提高阅读能力的目的，一定要注意不要长时间停留在某个生词上，而浪费了做其他题的时间。
6、猜测词义要有方法。
每一篇文章都可能有生词，这是很自然的现象。我们可以采取下列几种方法：①利用构词法知识猜测词义。②根据说明性词语猜测词义。③利用上下文的相关信息猜测词义。④从本句前后的词语来判断词义。⑤运用已学知识猜测词义等。
7、注意认真分析文章体裁。
在记叙性文章中，要注意时间、地点、人物、事件、结果等；在史地知识和科普文章中，应注意人名、地名、数字、年代、作用、现象等(可以用铅笔在试卷上分别打上不同的记号，以便于寻找)。
8、初选答案。
对那些明显的、有把握的题可以马上确定答案，不必对其余三个答案再作推敲。对略难的题，应再查阅短文(不是重读一遍)，迅速找出依据。对一时无把握的题，可先试选一个(作记号)，待思考后再决定。
9、复读文章，核对答案。
再次通读全文，联系逻辑关系，并依次检查答案。对那些拿不准的答案，要多看看，对照题目，推测判断，确保理解无误。
希望采纳谢谢！

C. 英语阅读题技巧

1.不但要求掌握所来读材料的主自旨大意、中心思想，而且要求掌握文章中的详细事实与细节。
2.不但要求对于具体事实情节的理解，而且要求对其抽象含义的理解，既要理解字面意思，又要理解其深层含义，包括作者的态度、观点、意图等。
3.既要求理解文章中某句、某段的含义及全文的逻辑关系，又要求根据其含义及逻辑关系进行判断和推理。
4.既要求考生能够运用材料中的信息去理解、分析问题;又要求考生能运用中学生应有的生活常识去分析、理解问题。

D. 英语阅读理解题！问题有点多。

先回答你第一个问题（问题真的太多，后面追答继续回复你）没有主语+介词结回构，你没把句子看答完整，这句话主语是groups of students，谓语是were making，and连接的是firstly from 和later from，表示第一的从哪里来，后来的从哪里来。能懂吗，需要我翻译一遍吗。

E. 高考英语阅读有一种篇章结构题，就是比如问第一段写来是干什么用的。

首先，你问题中的这个题是真题吗?
高考英语阅读涉及结构的题目是

F. 做英语阅读理解题的技巧是什么

阅读是主动地、积极地获取信息的创造行为，是培养学生通过视觉感知书面文字符号并获取信息能力的途径，更是提高听、说、写能力的有力杠杆，它在英语学习中起着至关重要的作用。在近几年的高考英语试卷中，阅读的分值（阅读理解，完形填空，改错）占了整个试卷分值的一半以上。99年高考英语试卷阅读理解的篇幅在增长，难度也有所加大。笔者认为要提高英语阅读水平，学生需做到以下几点：
一、多采用Top-down阅读法

自上而下（Top-down）阅读是从语篇整体出发，把注意力集中在通过文字符号获取信息上，即按文章所给的标题先对文章的内容与含义作出推断，理解作者所要表达的意思。

运用自上而下的阅读法的关键是培养学生预测、推断文章内容和含义的能力，从而提高阅读理解能力。

通过略看文章的总体结构安排或文章的标题来预测文章的内容及深层含义，可从下列几方面去推测：

1.文章写了哪几方面的内容？

2.作者将从哪几方面来阐述？

3.内容将如何发展下去？

在阅读时要注意不同的英文文体，因为文体对信息的组织和布局模式有着重大影响。训练掌握各种英语文体的结构特征，有利于归纳文章和进行逻辑推理。例如：记叙文以叙事为主必定有三个要素：情节、人物和背景。情节的发展多以时间、地点的转移为线索。因此，阅读记叙文时，必须抓住时间这条线索，以人物为中心，弄清故事的发生、发展、结局。再如议论文和说明文有一个共同点，就是段落大多有主题句（较多地出现在段首或段末），要抓住主题句，发掘每一个主旨，弄清文章的中心论点，以便更加详细地预测文章的内容，吃透整篇文章的表层及深层含义。

二、正确处理好精读与泛读间的关系。

精读和泛读是阅读时两种主要方法，两者相辅相存，不可偏废也无法代替。

1.注重阅读材料的选择。

选择合适的精泛阅读材料是提高英语阅读的重要手段。选择字数为200左右，后面配有习题的阅读材料为宜。阅读材料体裁要多样化——叙事类、科普类、议论或说明类、广告类等。要注重文章的实用性。所选材料的难易程度以理解正确率达60%～70%，生词量不超过4%为恰当。

2.精读泛读相辅相存。

比起泛读，精读是点。对一些有一定难度写得较好的文章要进行剖析，要归纳、总结作者的写作意图、思路及中心论点，最后达到获取详细信息和深层次内容的目的。如果说精读是点，泛读即是面。只有通过大量阅读，才能积累大量词汇、结构和句型，才能积累大量词汇、结构和句型，才能扩大知识面，培养语感，提高对文字的反应能力。在泛读时，要根据上下文提高自己猜测生词的能力，不要一看到生词就查词典，要弄清文中批示代词和人称代词所指代的对象。要对自己进行限时阅读。一篇200字左右难度适中的阅读文章，争取6分钟之内做完其阅读理解题。在阅读时，要多积累英、美等国家的社会、历史、地理、文化及风俗方面的知识，这有利于提高阅读水平。要培养良好的阅读习惯。阅读时，要从意群上去看，不要逐字读，更不要用笔或手指边指边出声读，这样有碍理解文章的意思，而且影响阅读速度。

阅读是一个综合过程，阅读能力的提高更是一个循序渐进的过程。学生只有坚持不懈，锲而不舍地改进阅读方法，培养阅读兴趣，才能达到事半功倍的效果。

影响阅读理解的因素可分为知识性障碍和非知识性障碍。知识性障碍包括：1.词汇障碍2..语法障碍 3.背景知识障碍 。非知识性障碍包括：1. 心理障碍 2.阅读习惯. 3..阅读速度4.阅读技巧

（一）重视英语词汇和习惯用法的积累

美国语言学家Driller (1978)根据词汇统计特征指出：如果我们认得25个最常见的英文单词，平均每页纸上的词我们会认得33%；如果认得135个常用词，则为50%；如果认得2500个，则为78%；如果认得5 000个，则为80%；一旦记得10 000个，可达92%。可见，阅读能力的高低和词汇量的大小是分不开的，目前大部分学生的词汇量偏少, 这是影响阅读能力提高的主要因素。那么怎样才能提高学生的词汇量呢？

1． 构词记忆法

据估计，英语词汇有100万到120万，但大部分单词是由构词法构成的。构词法包括派生、合成和转化。在教学中，让学生掌握常用的前缀（un/dis/im/il /super.）、后缀( ly/ less/ ful/ ment…)的含义及用法，就可以根据已知词猜出它的派生词，从而达到扩大词汇的目的。如：前缀super 有超过，超越的含义，就可以猜出supermarket （超级市场）supernatural (超自然的)、 superman （超人）、superstar （超级明星）等词的含义。。

2． 联想记忆法

由一个词联想到和它有关或无关的词，如看到live vi 生活，联想到其他词性及用法，如，直播的、活的等词义。

3． 广泛阅读记忆法

“To read well, you need a strong vocabulary.. To build a strong vocabulary, you need to read well.” 这句名言道出了阅读和词汇量的关系。要有流利的阅读，就必须有丰富的词汇。大量的阅读可以丰富你的词汇。

（二） 牢固掌握语法知识

近年来的NMET阅读理解短文的句式结构趋向复杂，语法知识在阅读中的作用已经突显出来。如在阅读中遇到另人费解的长句、难句，就可以借助语法，对句子进行适当的分析，搞清各部分的关系，从而准确理解整句的意思。以Decision-thinking is not unlike poker-it often matters not only what you think, but also what others think you think and what you think they think you think.(NMET 2000) 为例。该句的29个词中包含了主语从句，宾语从句、并列句和破折号连接的附加说明等多种关系。其中并列句中又有复合句，复合句中又有并列句。只有把句子的成分一一理清，才能掌握其意思。

（三）、积累一定的文化背景知识和生活知识

英语阅读能力的提高不仅需要一定的语言知识，还要有一定的文化背景知识和生活知识。例如在NMET2003的阅读理解A篇，该篇选材涉及地理，介绍了两座farthest/ most distant inhabited islands，一个为Guinness Book of Records 所认定的Tristan da Cunha;另一为复活岛（Easter Island）文章中出现了较多的专有名词，对于阅读经验不足的同学会形成干扰，而对于那些对Easter Day 等背景知识了解的同学，相对就会好些。另外在C篇中，出现了书刊号，如果熟悉这些，就会减少好多阅读困难。

（四）培养良好的阅读习惯，掌握有效的阅读技巧

要养成良好的阅读习惯，就要求平时多朗读，背诵精彩段落和文章，以培养语感。另外，有的同学在阅读时出声读、点读或回读，这些不良习惯都会影响阅读速度和对文章的理解。所以要克服这些不良习惯，作到不回读，不声读，不点读等。只有这样，阅读速度才能加快，理解的准确率才能提高。

除了良好的阅读习惯外，也要掌握正确的阅读技巧。教师要指导学生形成正确的思维方法。一般阅读时应注意以下几点：

1、略读（Skimming）即迅速浏览全文，抓住文章大意和主题句，明确作者的态度和意图。

2、跳读（Skipping） 即快速查找某一相关信息，读时要一目十行，对不相关的内容一带而过。

3、猜测生词(Guessing the new words) 在阅读过程中，不可避免的会遇到生词。如果一遇到生词就去查字典，或跳过去不看，都会影响对文章的理解。这样就要猜测生词的意思。不同的语境，单词的意思也就不一样。所以要根据上下文线索和构词法等知识去猜测。

“冰冻三尺，非一日之寒” 提高阅读能力，不是一朝一夕就能做到的。只要坚持正确的阅读方法，培养兴趣，广泛阅读，积累词汇，并且养成良好的阅读习惯，阅读理解能力一定会逐步提高。

新的高中英语教学大纲明确规定："侧重提高阅读能力"。纵观近几年的高考英语试题，我们不难看出，阅读理解能力是高考考查的重点，自始至终占着主导地位，并且有逐年增加的趋势。可以毫不夸张地说，做好阅读理解题，是获得高考英语高分的关键！
阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是：
1． 读材料的主旨和大意，以及用以说明主旨和大意的事实和细节。
2． 既理解具体的事实，也理解抽象的概念。
3． 既理解字面的意思，也理解深层的含义，包括作者的态度，意图等。
4． 既理解某句，某段的含义，也理解全篇的逻辑关系，并据此进行推理和判断。
5． 既能根据所提供的信息去理解，也能结合中学生应有的常识去理解。根据这五项要求，我们可将阅读理解多项选择题归纳为以下几种题型：细节理解题，词句理解题，主题、主旨题，猜测词义题，推理判断题。下面作者结合平时教学中的经验体会，谈一谈做英语阅读理解题的技巧与策略。
一、 先看题干，带着问题读文章。
即先看试题，再读文章。阅读题干，首先要掌握问题的类型，分清是客观信息题还是主观判断题。客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调，作者未加陈述的观点以及贯穿全文的中心主旨的理解等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位，再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比，有根有据地排除干扰项，选出正确答案。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率，节省了宝贵的时间。特别适用于对图形表格类题材的理解。
二、 速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读的目的是获取信息。一个人的阅读能力的高低决定了他能否快速高效吸收有用信息。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力。没有一定的阅读速度就不能顺利地输入信息，更谈不上运用英语。近几年的高考阅读速度大约是每分钟40个词左右。考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
抓主题句这是快速掌握文章大意的主要方法。主题句一般出现在文章的开头和结尾。用归纳法撰写的文章，都是表述细节的句子在前，概述性的句子居后。此时主题句就是文章的最后一句。通常用演绎法撰写的文章，大都遵循从一般到个别的写作程序，即从概述开始，随之辅以细说。这时，主题句就是文章的第一句。当然也有些文章没有主题句，需要读者自己去归纳。主题句往往对全文起提示、启迪、概括、归纳之作用，主旨大意题，归纳概括题，中心思想题往往直接可从主题句中找到答案。
试试看，你能找出下面一段文章的主题句吗？
The panda is a popular animal. Stories about the panda in the Washington Zoo are always front page news and important features on television newscasts. Stuffed pandas are among the most popular toys for children, and panda postcards are always in demand in zoo gift shops.
不难看出，文章的第一句是主题句，后面的句子都围绕这个句子展开。

三、 详读细节，理顺思路与文章脉络。
文章绝不是互不相干的句子杂乱无章的堆砌。作者为文，有脉可循。如记叙文多以人物为中心，以时间或空间为线索，按事件的发生、发展、结局展开故事；论述体则包含论点、论据、结论三大要素，通过解释、举例来阐述观点。你可根据文章的特点，详读细节，以动词、时间、地点、事件、因果等为线索，找出关键词语，运用"画图列表法"，勾画出一幅完整清晰的文章主题和细节的认知图。
四、 逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。这就是通常所说的深层理解。深层理解主要包括归纳概括题（中心思想，加标题等）和推理判断题，是阅读理解中的难点。深层理解是一种创造性的思维活动。它必须忠实于原文；要以文章提供的事实和线索为依据，立足已知推断未知，不能凭空想象，随意揣测；它要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。只有吃透文章的字面意思，推理才有前提和基础。
推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer, imply, suggest, indicate等。
例如高考题：
Annealing
Annealing is a way of making metal softer by heating it and then letting it cool very slowly. If metal is heated and then cooled very quickly, for example by dipping (浸) it in water, it will be very hard but also very brittle-that is, it will break easily. Metal that has been annealed is soft but does not break as easily. It is possible to make metal as hard or as soft as it is wished, by annealing it. The metal is heated, and allowed to cool slowly for a certain length of time. The longer the heated metal takes to cool slowly, the softer it becomes. Annealing can also be used on other material, such as glass.
1. Why do people put hot metal in water?
A. To make it hard. B. To make it soft.
C. To make it cool. D. To make it brittle.
2. In annealing, the required hardness of metal depends on __.
A. the quantity of water used B. the temperature of the metal
C. the softness of the metal D. the timing of the operation
3. As suggested by the text, how can glass be made less brittle?
A. It can be heated and then cooled quickly.
B. It can be cooled and then heated slowly.
C. It can be heated and then cooled slowly.
D. It can be cooled and then heated quickly.
1、 答案为A，此题属推断归纳题。文中第二句说如果把金属加热，然后迅速放到水里冷却，也就会变得非常硬，但也变得脆。hard 是工艺的主观目的。brittle是伴随的客观结果，故选A而不选D。B项明显错误；C项是手段不是目的，因此，都可排除。
2、 答案为D,此题属概括归纳题。timing 是时间的选择。本答案的依据是5和6两句，"The metal is heated,…length of time.","The longer…the softer it becomes."cool 的时间是可以控制的，时间越长越 soft,即硬度就越低。由此我们可得出结论：在退火过程中，金属的硬度是受到冷却的时间长短影响的。
3、 答案为C此题属推理判断题。文中提到"metal"。最后一句说退火工艺同样可用于象玻璃一类的其他材料。文中我们已知"annealing"就是先"heat"后"cool slowly"。由此推断C是正确的。
五、 猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力，也是高考中常用的题型。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
a. 定义法
如：Annealing is a way of making metal softer by heating it and then letting it cool very slowly.
句子给予annealing 以明确的定义，即"退火"。
It will be very hard but also very brittle------that is , it will break easily.
从后面的解释中我们可以了解到brittle 是"脆"的意思。
The herdsman , who looks after sheep,earns about 650yuan a year.
定语从句中 looks after sheep 就表明了 herdsman 的词义为"牧人"。
b 同位法
如：
They traveled a long way , at last got to a castle, a large building in old times.
同位语部分a large building in old times 给出了 castle 的确切词义，即"城堡"。
We are on the night shift----from midnight to 8 a.m.---this week.
两个破折号之间的短语很清楚地表明night shift 是"夜班"的意思。
c. 对比法
She is usually prompt for all her class, but today she arrived in the middle of her first class.
but 一词表转折，因此but 前后的意思正相反。后半句的意思是她今天"第一节上了一半才来"，因此反向推理，可得出她平时一向"准时"的结论。
d. 构词法（前缀、后缀、复合、派生等）
Perhaps, we can see some possibilities for next fifty years. But the next hundred?
possibility 是 possible 的同根名词， 据此可以判断定 possibility 意思是"可能性"。
e. 因果法
The lack of movement caused the muscles to weaken。Sometimes the weakness was permanent。So the player could never play the sport again.
从后面的结果"永远不能再运动"中，可以推测 permanent

三、精典范例
例1 （NMET 2001）
Shanghai: Car rentals（出租）are becoming more and more popular as an inexpensive way of taking to the roads. Business people, foreigners and families alike are making good use of the growing instry.

The first car rental firm opened in Shanghai in 1992 and now 12 car rental players are in the game, with more than 11,500 cars in their books.

The largest player—Shanghai Bashi Tourism Car Rental Center offers a wide variety of choices—deluxe sedans, minivans, station wagons, coaches. Santana sedans are big favorite.

Firms can attract enough customers for 70 percent of their cars every month. This figure shoots up ring holiday seasons like National Day, Labor Day and New Year's Day, with some recording 100 percent rental.

The major market force rests in the growing population of white-collar employees（白领雇员），who can afford the new service, said Zhuang Yu, marketing manager of Shanghai Angel car Rental Co.
( )1. The words "deluxe sedans","minivans"and "station wagons"used in the text refer to ___________.
A.cars in the making B.car rental firms
C.cars for rent D.car makers
( )2. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?
A. 70% of the cars can be rented out on holiday.
B. 70% of the customers are while-collar employees.
C. More firms are open for service ring holiday seasons.
D. Some firms rent out all their cars ring holiday seasons.
( )3. Shanghai's car rental instry is growing so fast mainly e to ___________.
A. better cars supplied by procers.
B. fast service offered by car rental firms.
C. the increasing number of white-collar emplioyees.
D. people's growing interest in travelling ring holidays.
解析：
1.C。上文提到："Shanghai Bashi旅游车租赁中心"提供了广泛丰富的选择，可判断选择的内容为可供租赁的车型。故选C。
2.D。文中提到的数据70%为"每月汽车租出量"，故A、B都不正确。"This figure shoots up ring holiday seasons …, with some recording 100 percent rental"判断出D项陈述正确的，即"一些公司在节假日里能够把汽车全部租出去。"
3.C。文章最后一段引用"汽车租赁中心市场经理"（Zhuang Yu）的话解释了上海汽车租赁行车迅猛发展的原因根源于"the growing population of white-collar employees"。故选C。

例2：（2004年全国卷II）
Rome had the Forum. London has Speaker's Corner. Now always–on– the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.

Liz and Bill, two college graates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street corners. Just talk.

Using a 2-foot-tall sign that says,"Talk to Me."they attract conversatio- nalists, who one evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.

They don't collect money. They don't push religion(宗教). So what's the point?

"To see what happens, said Liz."We simply enjoy life with open communication（交流）."
Shortly after the September 11,2001 attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers after their return.

"It started as a crazy idea,"Liz said."We were so curious about all the strangers walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about anything: their jobs, their clothes, their childhood experiences, anything."

Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.

Marcia had lost her husband to a serious disease."That was very heavy on my mind,"Marcia said."To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,"she explained.

To celebrate a year of talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people showed up, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.

They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some publishers have expressed interest in a book, something they say they'll consider.
1. What did Liz and Bill start doing after September 2001?
A. Chatting with people. B. Setting up street signs
C. Telling stories to strangers D. Organizing a speaker's corner
2. What they have been doing can be described as .
A. pointless B. normal C. crazy D. successful
3. Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the text?
A. They knew Liz and Bill very well.
B. They happened to meet the writer of the text.
C. They organized the get-together in the city park.
D. They are examples of those who talked to Liz and Bill.
4. What will Liz and Bill do in the future?
A. Go in for publishing. B. Do more television programs.
C. Continue what they are doing. D. Spend more time reading books.
5. How do they like they idea of writing a book?
A. They have decided to wait a year or two
B. They will think about it carefully
C. They agreed immediately
D. They find it hard to do that
解析：
1.A。本篇讲述了两个大学毕业生与陌生人交谈，倾听人们向他们倾述的互惠的活动。文章从联想开始，简介Liz and Bill（这是两个人的名字，又是交谈与倾听活动的名称）做什么，怎样开始的，效果如何，未来打算等，其中等六段和第七段是插叙（从shortly after…到…experiences, anything.），讲述的就是两个年轻人怎样开始这一活动的。故选A项；开始与人聊天。
2.D。Liz and Bill活动很成功。从倒数第二段可知：为庆祝该活动一周所举办的聚会，有许多人参加，记者和摄影师都来了，说明很成功。
3.D。Liz和Bill同许多人谈生活，倾听过许多人跟他们谈心，Denise和Marcia是其中的两人。提到他们来做例子。
4.C。最后一段的前一句说明他们还想吸引更多的人来加入这一活动，与他们聊天。故选C。
5.B。本题问Liz和Bill怎么看待写本书这回事，全篇最后一句可知，但本句结构较复杂。something是代词，是a book的同位语，"they'll consider"是定语从句，"they say"起到插入语的作用。全句可译为：有些出版商表达了给Liz和Bill 出本书的兴趣，Liz和Bill说他们会考虑这件事。consider一词可解释为think about carefully，"something"指出书写书。故选B。

例3：
My first reaction was annoyance. It was Friday afternoon, and I was within an hour of finishing my work for the week. As I was leaving, a nurse brought me one more patient message. The statement read: "Mrs.Jones called to say that she has had blurred vision（视觉模糊）ever since her medical test this morning."I smiled. Suddenly our tests were causing eye problems.

This week my patients had questioned everything. My patient with high blood pressure had stopped coming to her treatment on the advice of an Internet chat room. A woman who had a mental problem was substituting(用……代替)St . John's word for her medication. Now Mrs. Jones was imagining problems. I rolled my eyes.

My second reaction was worry. As I looked through her record, I tried to figure out why she would have blurred vision, but nothing in her record explained the new problem. She's probably just anxious, I thought. Still, she wouldn't have called if she had been all right. I picked up the phone.

What I next felt can only be described as delight. Before I made the call, the nurse ran in: Mrs. Jones called. Her vision is fine. Turns out she picked up the wrong glasses when she left the office. The X-raytechnician has been having the same problem. I let out a laugh. Mrs. Jones had been right. Her vision had been blurred. Now we know why.

Finally I felt shame. I came to realize what Mrs. Jones had taught me. I had first known she was wrong, that her anxiety had clouded her judgment. Instead, my medical training had clouded mine. Now I me for my help. They pay me to listen, diagnose（诊断），treat and talk. That suggests trust; I must remember that, and trust them too.

1.The writer smiled while reading the patient message because he knew .
A. Mrs. Jones would ask for more tests
B. the patient was being unreasonable
C. the nurse was joking with him
D. Mrs. Jones would call him
2. What had caused Mrs . Jones' eye problem?
A. Wrong glasses B. Medical checkup.
C. Her own imagination D. Chatting on the Internet
3.The underlined words"clouded her judgment"in the last paragraph probably mean .
A. made her less trustful toward the doctor
B. put her in control of her own feelings
C. made her less able to think clearly
D. put her in a dangerous situation
解析：
1.B。本篇讲一个医生要结束一周的工作时几分钟内的心理历程。一周来，病人们不断怀疑或不信任自己，其中一个病人Mrs.Jones也来电话说上午看完病后眼睛看不清东西，医生先是烦躁，进而担心焦虑是否真的有问题或病人只是在想像，再而是高兴——Mrs.Jones只是戴错了眼镜，自己的诊断治疗没问题。最后是惭愧，病人还是信任自己的，自己也必须信任病人。文章第二段活用了许多过去完成时，说明这些事先发生，许多病人开始没道理地怀疑自己，现在又轮到Mrs.Jones。所以医生知道这位病人有些没理性。
2.A。第四段的前几句说明了Mrs.Jones视力正常，（下班）离开办公室时拿错了眼镜。
3.C。画线部分中cloud作动词用，是用云挡住的意思，整体画线部分应是"影响了她的判断力，使她不能正常思考"，本题可用代入法解决。

例4：
It's not the flashiest car in the world. Not even close. But the 1971 Volkswagen named Helios can do something most cars can't : run on solar energy—energy from the sun's light and head!
Joshua Bechtold, 14,and the other students at the Riverside School in Lyndonville, Vermont, worked They named their car after Helios, the sun god in Greek mythology（神话）。
The 4-year-old Tour de Sol encourages the use of "green",or environmen- tally friendly, cars to help rece pollution and save enengy. It's not a race. Cars are judged on fuel efficiency（耗油量）rather than speed. In the week-long event, 44 cars took the 350-mile tour from Waterbury, Connecticut, to Lake George, New York. Of the 23 student cars, Helios was the only one built by middle school students.

A teacher drove Helios, but the children talked with people wherever they stopped along the road."That was my favorite part,"says Anna Browne,15."We explained how the car runs."

Due in part to old, inefficient batteries（电池），Helios finished fourth—out of four—in its kind, the sun-powered class."We were there for the fun of it,"Anna says,"We're proud of Helios,"says Ariel Gleicher, 14."It's a car that's good for the environment."

1. What is special about the car Helios in the text?
A. It was built by middle school students
B. It has an attractive design
C. It was made in 1971
D. It won the fourth prize
2. How many sun-powered cars took part in the race?
A. 1 B. 4 C. 23 D. 44
3. What would be the best title for the text?
A. The Making of Helios
B. 1999 American Tour de Sol
C. Sun-powered Gars on the Road
D. Use of Green Cars in Connecticut
4. The students felt proud of Helios because .
A. it could run as far as 350 miles
B. it was favored by many children
C. it had high-quality batteries
D. it was driven by clean energy
解析：
1.A。从第一段"run on solar energy"和第二段"Joshua Bechtold,14, and the other students…worked many months to get Helois ready."可知本车利用太阳能，并且由学生制做。
2.B。从最后一段"Helois finished fourth-out of four-in its kind, the sun-powered class"可知，四辆同类车参赛，Helois得第四名。
3.C。全文讲述Helois这类太阳能车。本文不止讲Helois的制作，排除A。本文讲Helois参赛前后的事，不以赛事为主，排除B。环保汽车的使用不止在Connectinut, 排除D。
4.D。学生们对此车感到自豪是因为该车环保，而非车速或小孩子喜欢，且它的电池旧而效率低，排除其他各项。

例5：
The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30 pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.

By 9:45,everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.

Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30—8:30pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00pm or 8:30pm means possible dinner, but 9:30pm and any time thereafter means no food, eat beforehand, roll up late.

But this is not always the case. If asked to a students' party at 6:30pm, it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive—looking eager—is social death. When my mother asked to a party for 6:30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age group (late thirties)falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we're young. We're probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.

The accepted custom at present is confusing（混乱的），sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every part that precious element（成分）of surprise.
1. The underlined words"off their heads"probably mean .
A. tired B. crazy C. curious D. hopeless
2. Jane and David's story is used to show that .
A. party-goers usually get hungry at parties
B. party invitations can be confusing
C. people should ask for food at parties
D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are ll
3. For some young people, arriving on time for a students' party will probably be considered .
A. very difficult B. particularly thoughtful
C. friendly and polite D. socially unacceptable
4. According to the writer, people in their late thirties .
A. are likely to arrive late for a party
B. care little about the party time
C. haven't really grown up yet
D. like surprises at parties
5. What is the general idea of the text? .
A. It's safe to arrive late just when food is served
B. It's wise to eat something before going to a party
C. It's important to follow social rules of party-going
D. It's necessary to read invitations carefully
解析：
1.B。参加晚会的人没吃晚饭，到晚11点，人们饿疯了。
2.B。开头的故事做为例子，说明邀请信函令人迷茫，人们无法把握该如何去做。
3.D。第四段前几句说明，年轻的学生赴晚会迟到很正常。急切地第一个赶到的人太少见了。
4.A。第四段最后提及三十多岁的人参加晚会的时间接近学生的时间，故可能迟到。
5.C。全文可知，不同年龄段的人到达晚会的时间不同，对晚会时间理解不同，不遵从社会习惯，便会出现饿肚子等现象。所以，按社会习俗参加晚会极为重要。

例6：
Cannes will rock to the sound of a cancan dance this year when Moulin Rouge by the Australian director Baz Luhrmann opens the French film festival

(电影节)in May. The musical stars Nicole Kidman as a singer, and John Leguizamo as the artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautree. It will be competing for the palme d'Or, the festival's top prize. The festival runs to May 21.

The American actor Tommy Lee Jones, 54, has married his longtime girlfriend, Dawn Maria Laurel, 36, in a private wedding in San Antonio."It wasn't a big to-do,"said Fred Biery, a U.S. District Judge who performed the service. He refused to discuss things further."These are very private people,"he said.
Loretta Lynn is being treated for a very bad cold in Tennessee and will miss several appearances. The country singer, 65, was admitted to a hospital near her home in Hurricane Mills."She is in good condition, but the doctors are watching her closely,"a spokeswoman said.

The French-Algerian singer Enrico Macias was named a United Nations peace messenger. Enrico joins eight other people who act as goodwill envoys（使者）for the United Nations, among them are the writer Elie Wiesel and the basketball player Magie Johnson.
1. We can learn from the text that Henri de Toulouse-Lantree is .
A. a figure in a film B. a dancer in a show
C. a country singer D. a prize winner
2. We know from the text that .
A. Moulin Rouge won the top prize in a film festival
B. Loretta Lynn is under the doctor's care
C. eight people serve as the UN goodwill enjoys
D. Fred Biery was Tommy Lee Jones' assistant
3. This text most probably appears in .
A. a book on film stars B. a film review in a magazine
C. a newspaper D. a notice
解析：
1.A。第一段"…and John Leguizamo as the artist Hentti de You-louse－ Lautree."可知，as前省略了will act, as前的人是一个演员，其后的人是电影中的角色。
2.B。第四段"She (Loretta Lynn)is in good condition, but the doctors are watching her closely"可知答案。Moulin Rough（一部影片）即将参加电影节，尚未获奖，排除A。Enrico Macias同其他八人一道，共九人，排除C。Fred Biery是一个法官，故排除D。
3.C。全文四小段文章均是关于影视娱乐圈的事，应该是从报纸的休闲娱乐栏目中选取的文章。

I. 如何做高考英语阅读理解推断题

做高考英语阅读理解推断题，我个人的经验，三步：
1.迅速将整篇文章分解，理出文章结构；
2.迅速抓住文章叙述的主题；
3.迅速找出各部分的中心意思，并找出表达中心意思的句子。
做到这3步，基本上这篇文章不用逐字读完就可以答对接下来的题目。

先说一下，英语文章，尤其是用于考试的阅读文章，其结构都有非常明显的典型性，一般结构为主题段，论述段落，总结及结论段，乃至超长的毕业论文也不过是在这个大框架内。

以一篇文章5段为例：

一般第一段为主题段，也就是说，整篇文章要表达的主题一定会出现在这里，你要做的就是迅速把中心句找出来，一般来说，中心句会出现在倒数第2句或第1句，简单一点的文章会在第1句就出现，如果考题出得比较难，也可能需要自己总结，但就算需要自己总结中心句，也一定能在该段落中找出代表中心意思的词；

接下来第二、三、四段，各段将对第一段提出的主题意思进行论述或分步骤分析，也就是说，每个段落都会有进阶的主题，即个各分论点，所以你要做的同样是迅速把它们找出来，位置和方法相同；

最后一段为全文的总结，并会对结论进行进一步的分析，或做推测，或作评论，这也是一个出题点，你要做的就是抓住总结的主旨和对其进一步分析的结论。

当然并不会所有文章都是5段，例如有的主题段落会有2段甚至更多，论点段落可能只有2段或多达4段以上（但一般不超过3段），难一点的文章里每个分论点也可能不止一段，我这里只是以5段为例，解释的是文章的结构，或者说一般构成，通过这个规律可以迅速将文章进行分解，进而掌握各部分的要点。

下面分析一下出题要点，或者说出题规律（如果题不会出得很偏的话），以一篇阅读文5题为例，一般为1个主题、1个分论点、2个细节题、1个结论或对结论的分析、推测。

可见掌握文章主题、分论点及结论分析就可以答对3/5，这是不需要逐字逐句读完全文的，而2个细节题怎么办呢，就需要通过题目提供的信息迅速分析出其所在的分论点，然后回到该分论点段落找到与这题相符的句子，一般如果题出得简单的话会是原句照搬，难一点的话会换个表达方式，再难一点则会绕个圈设个陷阱，这就需要非常小心，一定要舍得多花2秒钟把这句话和前后两句反复阅读，挖出陷阱。这样的话5道题都可以迎刃而解了，这就叫针对性解题。

说一下我的阅读答题习惯吧，一般我第一时间会先看题，并且非常认真的理解每道题的意思，提取有用的信息，虽然一般并不容易只通过问题一下子就找出文章主题，但一定能找到跟主题有关的词和信息，并且至少知道文章是在讨论某个东西还是在叙述某件事，也就是说是议论文、说明文，还是叙述文，然后迅速按上面的三步走，这样带着问题扫读全文，连细节题也可以非常迅速的找出来，最后将问题一一对应，全部解决！

这些就是我一路考到专八的阅读题经验，方法交给你了，接下来就是多多练习，只有多练才能练到炉火纯青的地步，最后做阅读题简直是轻松+愉快！
好了，说了这么多，希望对你有所帮助！
