针对阅读理解，建议还是提高自己的阅读能力，我是速读协会会员，给你推荐一个提高阅读能的工具

1、阅读能力是一个笼统的概念，阅读包含阅读速度、阅读理解力、整理归纳分析能力等，语文、英语阅读在阅读速度、归纳提取重点两个方面表现得更明显。

2、培养阅读能力，首先要掌握科学高效的阅读方法，也就是练习快速阅读（速读），其次养成阅读的习惯，多读多练。阅读能力是需要从小培养的，快速阅读是一种科学、高效的读书方法，它激活我们的“眼、脑”潜能，培养我们直接把视觉器官感知的文字符号转换成意义，消除头脑中潜在的发音现象，越过由发声到理解意义的过程，形成眼脑直映式的阅读方式。最终实现阅读提速、整体感知、理解记忆的飞跃。具体练习可以参考：《精英特速读记忆训练网站》，《精英特快速阅读记忆训练》是我们协会认可的，安装软件即可进行试用训练，我自己练习过的，用正式软件坚持每天练习一个多小时，15-30个小时，阅读速度差不多能提高5-10倍的。 提高阅读能力，培养读书兴趣，让阅读成为习惯，对于提高自己的认知和思考不无裨益。

3、如果是正在考试或者正在忙着备考的学生，特别阅读记忆差的，我建议学习一下精英特，精英特速读也是我们协会认可的。

『伍』 高三英语阅读理解四篇，求准确

这个的话还是要自己动脑不要起来靠别人

『陆』 急求一篇以“我对友谊的理解”为题的英语作文。不用太多，拜托各位了。先谢谢了

1.于完形填空题涉及面广，综合性强，能力要求高。因此，要提高正确率，除了掌握一定的词汇量和一定的语法知识，具备一定的阅读能力、分析能力和逻辑推理能力外，还必须掌握科学的解题方法，提高解题能力。我们可以采用以下步骤与技巧。完形填空一般无标题，首句一般不留空白，是完整的一句，全文信息从此开始。细读首句，可判断文章体裁，预测全文大意和主旨。完形填空题的文章尽管是有意地抽掉了一些词，使信息中断，造成间隔性的词义空白，但仍不失为完整的语篇。阅读全文要一气呵成，尽管有空格、生词或不明白的地方，仍要快速读下去。读时要注意找出关键词、中心词，划出某些代表人物和情节的词，以便于形成思路。对空格要填的词可作试探性地猜测，为下一步选择答案做好准备，打好基础。要注意不要在未掌握大意的基础上，边阅读，边做题，这样速度慢、准确率低。 通过通读全文，掌握了文章的大意后，可以从头开始边细读边分析。根据上下文意思选取语法正确、语义贴切、语言准确的词语。在这一过程中，一定要瞻前顾后，灵活答题。 所谓“瞻前顾后”，即先读所填词的句子，回顾上一句，兼顾下一句。如果一句中有两个空白待填，在初定答案时要“双管齐下”，在两处同时试填，然后通读全句，确定答案。另外在做题时要采取先易后难的原则，对把握性强的选项要做到一锤子定音。而对那些把握性不强的选项，不妨先放一下，接着再往下做，然后再回过头来补填。这时，由于通过你对上下文的精研细磨，上文其意自现。答题时可采用 1）择优法：根据文章及结构边读边填，如果能够立刻判定最佳答案的，不必再去逐个考证其余答案。2）排除法：如答案一时难以确定，可按空格位置，从语法结构、词语搭配、上下文语境、习惯用法、词义辨析等方面，对选项逐项分析试填。排除干扰项，从而确定正确答案。 2.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

An owl is a bird with very large eyes. Those eyes make the owl look clever. The owl can not move its eyes freely as people can. It can only look straight ahead (朝前). If it wants to look at both sides, it must turn its neck.
Owls see better at night than ring the day. At night they look for food. They eat mice and insects.
Owls make a strange noise because the owls sleep most of the day. They usually give their cries at night. The cry sounds like “Whoo! Whoo!”. This strange sound sometimes frightens people at night.

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.
Now, the old man had seventeen camels, and the three brothers didn't know how to do as their father said. They thought a long time about the problem, and it seemed that they must either kill some of the camels and cut them into pieces, or disobey their father.

I have only one camel, but take it-it is yours."
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.
