第十八章 阅读理解
初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧
阅读理解也是中考英语题的必考题目之一，本题型旨在考查学生阅读，理解的能力，几年来，中考英语题中的阅读理解材料新，题材丰富，考查学生综合推断能力，根据语篇猜单词意思的能力的力度加大，也考查学生关注细节的能力。所以学生往往要么没能正确理解语篇中某些句子的意思，在细节题上丢分，要么就是对语篇的整体把握不够，在综合题或者推断题方面丢分。那么到底怎么做好阅读理解这一题型呢？我将从以下三个方面谈论这个问题：
一、解题思路
（一）先读问题，弄清考查要点，以便能带着问题看文章，这样会心中有数，有的放矢。
（二）快速浏览全文，掌握全貌，注意发现与问题有关的信息，如果时间紧，至少要扫视一下起首段和尾段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来想一想，这样全文大意便清楚了。此时，不要忙于答题。
（三）细读原文，捕捉相关信息词，掌握短文细节内容。这是解题的关键，应特别注意以下几点：
1． 抓住四个"W"和一个"H"，就是边读边用铅笔做些标记，把What (事件)，When（时间），Where（地点），Why（原因），Hw（经过）划出来。抓住了四个“W”和一个“H”，就抓住了文章的全貌，一些直接性的问题便可解决。
2．抓住连接词及起关键作用的副词、代词、介词、插入语等。因为这些词具有因果，让步，递进，转折，指代，列举及承上启下等各种连接上下文的特殊功能。这对考生分清文章层次，辨明各种关系，了解人物心理，推断作者意图，进行逻辑推理等手段来分析难点，都具有举足轻重的作用。
3． 注意领会文章的寓意。
4．根据题意，初选答案。这一步须仔细审题，领会测试要求，确定解题方法。对那些明显的，有把握的题可以断然确定，不必把其余三个答案再作推敲而浪费时间：有些略难的题，应再查阅短文（不是重读一遍），迅速找出依据，予以排除。常用的解题方法有如下几种：
① 直接解题法。即从原文中直接找出答案。
② 归纳解题法。对于不能从原文中直接找出答案的可在把握全文中心和线索的前题下进行概括、归纳得出正确答案。
③ 综合推理法。读者需统观全文，认真分析，综合推理及至计算，最后归纳出正确答案。
题干中有"suggest, cnclude, cnclusin, prbably, reasn, because, accrding t“等字眼时，属于推断概括型，考查内容着眼于全篇，考生应具备一定的分析归纳，推理等逻辑思维能力。
④ 捕捉关键词。在阅读时应该注意与问题相关的同义词，近义词，反义词或同位词等信息词来得出正确答案。
⑤ 转换解题法。即原文这么说，而在问题和所给选项中则用另外的词去转换一种说法，但仍表示同一含义。
⑥ 排除法。根据语言，句法结构，信息词和常识，在没有把握的选项中用排除法得出正确答案。
四、重读原文，仔细斟酌核对答案。在解完最后一道题后，如果时间允许，再将原文读一遍；用全文的主题思想统率各思考题，研究其内在联系和逻辑关系，目的在于对所做答案进一步审查，推出未解答的题，以便减少失误。
二、题型分类
初中英语阅读理解往往有以下三大题型，抓住它的解法和思路，就可以顺利做好这些题目：
（一）选择符合文章的选项
（二）判断正误
（三）根据文章内容回答问题，现今该题型归纳在任务型阅读中，此处不做详解。

典型例题分析
（一）根据内容，从短文后每题的四个选项中选择最佳的一项。
Mr Brwn first went t lk at the undergrund - fire when he was seven. "Thrugh the hle（洞）in the earth yu culd see the range fire, but yu had t lk fast because it was s ht," said Mr Brwn. In 1898, he saw the fire nce mre（再一次）.
Nw, we can nly see the smke. The fire Mr Brwn saw is nt the undergrund - fire. In fact, there are 260 cal（煤）fires in the wrld. They are harmful（有害）and dangerus. Then hw t put them ut?
Scientists have tried t set（放置）fire t undergrund cal t speed up（加速）the fires. In this way, the burning（燃烧）f undergrund cal wuld be sn finished.（被烧完）。
1. Mr Brwn first saw the undergrund - fire ________.
A. at the age f sevenB. seven years ld
C. in the year f 1898D. mre than（超过）80 years ag
2. Mr Brwn said that we had t take a fast lk at the fire because ________.
A. it was in the hleB. it was very ht
C. it was range D. it was harmful
3. Hw many cal fires are there in the wrld?
A. There's nly ne.B. It's hard t say.

B. T speed up the fires.
C. T see the fires burning.
D. T d sme experiments（试验）.
5. What is the best title（标题）fr the article?
A. Watching the Undergrund - Fire.
B. A Way t Put Out the Cal Fires .
C. The Burning Earth.
D. Cal and Cal Fires.
答案分析]
1. 在文章的第一段的第一句里可以找到依据。at the age f seven 等于when he was seven，故正确答案为 A 。
2．这一题可以在第一段里直接找到答案，属于直接回答题。正确答案为 B。
3．这一题可以在第二段里直接找到答案，属于直接回答题。正确答案为 C。
4．在文章的最后一段提到了扑灭火的最好方法，那就是使火加速燃烧。正确答案为 B。
5．完成这道题需作一定的归纳，因为文章中没有给出直接的回答。文章从Mr. Brwn两次看火，然后说出地下火的危害，最后提出如何灭火的方法。文章的前两段是给为什么要灭火和如何灭火铺垫，如何灭火才是文章的中心。故正确答案为 B。

（二）根据文章内容判断正误
Fred telephned his wife. “I’ve gt tw free tickets fr the theatre tnight,” he tld her. “Meet me utside the ffice. We’ll have smething t eat and then g n t the theatre.”
Fred’s wife was very pleased. They hadn’t been t the theatre fr a lng time. She met her husband as he tld her. They had dinner and gt t the theatre just in time.
At the entrance Fred tk ut his wallet t get the tickets. “It’s very strange,” he said. “They aren’t here!” “Try yur pckets,” said his wife. But the tickets weren’t there, either.
Then Fred lked very embarrassed (尴尬). “What’s the matter?” asked his wife. “Well,” Fred said, “I remember what I did with my tickets. I put them in my bag. But because I wasn’t ging hme, I left it in the ffice!”
( ) 1. One day, Fred was given the tickets
fr the theatre.
( ) 2. Fred and his wife went t the
theatre quite ften.
( ) 3. Fred wanted t meet his wife in a
restaurant.
( ) 4. They reached the theatre neither
late nr early.
( ) 5. Then Fred culdn’t find his tickets and remembered what he had dne with the tickets.

答案分析：
1、T 因为第一段中提到Fred tld his wife
“I’ve gt tw free tickets…” “free” 此处是免费的意思。
2、F 第二段中提到“They hadn’t been t the theater
fr a lng time.”
3、F 第一段中Fred说“Meet me utside the ffice.”
4、T 第二段中“in time”是及时的意思。
5. T 结尾处提到的。
（三）阅读下面短文，然后回答文后问题。

三、题材分析
（一）家庭、朋友与个人情况
在中考阅读理解中，记叙文阅读题目的考查难度逐年增加，多使用贴近学生生活的素材，多以故事形式出现。针对这种题型主要抓四大要素，即时间、地点、人物和事件的起因、发展和结果，以及人物之间的关系，从中分析他们的思想品质、性格特征等；理解文章大意后，找出关键的句子和一些与考查内容有关的问题所在，这样，便于我们解题时“顺藤摸瓜”，找出问题的答案。
这类阅读一般是对文章理解能力的考查，抓住文章的关键句和关键词是非常重要的。
做题思路：先看清题干，带着问题读文章，明确把握问题指向，避免“回视”现象，提高做题的速度。
例如：
1990 was a significant year in wrld events．In February，Nelsn Mandela was set free after 27 years in prisn．In Octber，East and West Germany became ne cuntry again．Then at the end f 1990，the Wrld Wide Web was brn．Fr this final event we have ne man t thank，Tim Berners Lee，the father f the Web．
Berners Lee was brn n June 8，1955 in Lndn，England．His parents，bth cmputer designers，encuraged him t think and wrk creatively as he grew up．He was an excellent student and naturally tk an interest in cmputers and science．
After graduating frm Oxfrd University，Tim went t wrk at a science research centre in Switzerland．There he develped sme f the different systems that wuld later becme the Web．The first was HTML，the cmputer language used t make web pages．The secnd was an address system that let cmputers anywhere find each ther and send and receive infrmatin．In 1990，while still at the science centre in Switzerland，he put them tgether t make the first Internet brwser(浏览器)．It culd run n any cmputer and allwed peple t creat website t share their infrmatin with the rest f the wrld．
Tim knew that the mre peple used the Web，the mre useful it wuld be．He wasn't interested in mney but knwledge，s he gave ut his inventin fr free t anyne wh was interested．Many were interested and the grwth f the Internet began．
Tday Tim wrks as a prfessr at the MIT in America，researching new and interesting ways t use the Web．He has received many awards frm gvernments and rganizatins fr his effrts．He is still nt very interested in mney．That is why he is s admired by his students and wrkmates．It may als be ne f the reasns that few peple utside the wrld f technlgy knw his name．

A．The events that tk place in 1990．
B．The histry f the Internet．
C．The inventin f the Internet brwser．
D．The man wh created the Wrd Wide Web

答案解析：
1．C 根据第一段第三、四句话可知，发生在 1990 年的世界事件：东西德统一，Wrld Wide Web 的诞生。由此我们不难推测出，significant 是指“重要，重大”。故选 C。
2．B 根据第三段“ address system that let cmputers anywhere find each ther and send and receive infrmatin...”可知选项 A 与此不符；根据第四段可知，Tim 只对知识感兴趣而对金钱并不感兴趣，因此他免费贡献出他的发明 web brwser，故选项 C 不正确；根据第一段，我们知道 web 是在 1990 年诞生的，因此 1990 年前，人们不可能使用 web，故排除 D。所以正确答案为 B。
3．A 根据第二段可知，Tim 学习成绩优秀，故排除 B；文中没有提 Tim 是个商人，故排除 C；根据最后一段最后一句话“ peple utside the wrld f technlgy knw his name．”可知 Tim 并非世界闻名，故排除 D。根据文中第二段“ him t think and wrk creatively...”可知正确答案为 A。
4．C 根据最后一段第一句可知 Tim 现在住在美国。
5．D 这篇文章主要介绍的是 Web 之父 Tim Berners Lee．

（二）学校生活与语言学习
校园生活与语言学习是中考阅读理解考查的一个热点话题，一方面与学生生活、学习、交流等息息相关；另一方面，来自社会，紧贴社会生活，具有一定的时代感和现实意义。这类话题多是说明文，做题时要注意说明的对象、内容及说明方法。这类题要注意每段话的开头部分，整体把握材料信息。
做题思路：把握信息，找出题眼，梳理信息，进行解答问题。

2．A 由第二段第一句“ Meng first gt t the finishing line in 1 minute and 29.213 secnds in wmen's 1000 meters...”可知正确答案为 A。
3．C 由第一段最后两句“I really feel these three gld medals belng t my team... with the help f my team that I wn the prize．”可知由于团队的帮助她才获得了成功，故正确答案为 C。
4．D 由第二段最后一句“That helped China first win the team gld medal...”可知 D 项的表述是错误的。

（三）天气与自然
随着社会经济的快速发展，社会和谐已提上日程，天气与自然环境很快就成为人们关注的话题之一。此类话题多是说明文和议论文。这就要求我们了解说明文和议论文的特点，这样才能对问题进一步地分析和解读，才能自觉地完成命题要求，取得高分。
解题思路：把握该类话题的特征，对所给信息进行归纳整合
例如：
Earthquakes happen withut warning(前兆)．They can happen any time f a day，at any pint during the year．When an earthquake is happening，yu shuld knw what yu shuld d r nt d．
D NOT g utside．Yu culd get injured frm falling glass r parts f buildings．If yu are utside，stay away frm buildings and pwer lines(输电线)．

答案解析
1．A BCD 三项在第三段可找到答案；根据第二段内容可知 A 项的做法是不安全的，故正确答案为 A。
2．B 根据第一段前两句可知，地震可能随时会发生，故 B 项为正确答案。
3．C 通过全文可知本文主要是在介绍发生地震时，我们应该采取哪些措施才能使自己避免受伤，故正确答案为 C。

（四）历史与地理
本话题在中考中所占比例不多，在历史方面要注意历史事件发生的时间、地点、原因以及有何影响等，而对地理知识的考查，一般多与旅游观光等内容相结合，这就要求我们了解各地的名胜古迹、遗址等。
解题思路：熟悉文章，找准问题关键所在，提高解题速度和质量。
例如：
On February 3rd，1949，New Yrk Harbr(港) was an exciting place．Many peple were there t greet a ship frm France．On the ship were 49 French railrad bxcars(火车车厢) filled with gifts frm the peple f France t the peple f America．These bxcars were frm the famus Merci Train (Merci，a French wrd meaning "thank yu")．
After wrld War Ⅱ(二战)，a lt f factries，rads and farms in France had been destryed．Many French peple had n jbs r mney and had little t wear and little t eat．In the winter f 1947，a train was sent acrss the United States，stpping in cities and twns alng the way．At every stp，peple gave whatever they culd．Factries gave clthing and medicine．Farmers gave fd．Families gave mney．Even schl children gave away their pcket mney(零用钱)．All the things were then taken t France by ship．
By 1949，the French had begun t recver(恢复) frm the war．The Merci Train was their way f saying "thank yu" t America．French peple had filled the bxcars with gifts．Mst f them were persnal，like hand-made tys，children's drawings，r pstcards．But the bxcars themselves were perhaps the mst meaningful f the gifts．On each car，the French peple had painted the pictures f all their 40 prvinces，with an American eagle n the frnt．The bxcars were taken t each state f America，where they were warmly greeted．
Nw many f the states still keep their bxcars．Gifts sent by the French peple can still be seen in sme museums．The Merci Train came ut f the war，but it nw reminds the wrld that cuntries can als wrk tgether in peace(和平)．

1．A 根据第一段内容我们可知许多人来到 New Yrk Harbr 的目的是为了欢迎来自法国的 Merci Train，故正确答案为 A。
2．C 根据“At every stp，peple gave whatever they culd... All the things were then taken t France by ship．”可以推测出正确答案为 C。
3．D 根据第三段第三句和第四句的 persnal，like hand-made tys...”可知 them 指代的是 gifts，故正确答案为 D。
4．B 根据“ French peple had painted the pictures f all their 40 prvinces， they were warmly greeted．”可以推测出正确答案为 B。
5．A 通过文章内容我们可知整篇文章都是围绕 Merci Train 来写的，故正确答案为 A。

（五）社会万象
在中考阅读理解中，本话题包括的题材很多，它们来自生活，来自社会，针对这些题材要求抓住关键的句子和一些与考查内容有关的问题所在，这样便于我们解题时“顺藤摸瓜”，找出问题的答案。这种题型一般是对文章理解能力的考查，抓住文章的关键句和关键词是非常重要的。
解题思路：看清题干，明确把握问题指向，带着问题读文章，避免“回视”现象，提高做题的速度，提高解题质量。
例如：
In mst cultures，when yu meet peple yu knw fr the first time during a day，it is usual t greet them．Once a yung wman frm England went t Hng Kng t wrk．When she first arrived，she knew little abut the Chinese culture f language．On her way t schl ne day，she went t a bank t get sme mney．T her surprise，the bank clerk asked her if she had had her lunch．She was surprised at such a questin because in the British culture it wuld mean an invitatin t lunch．Between unmarried yung peple it can als mean the yung man's interest in dating the girl．Since this bank clerk was a stranger t the British wman，she was very puzzled，and quickly answered that she had eaten already．After this she went n t schl and was even mre surprised when ne f the teachers asked her the same questin．
By nw she understd that it culd nt be an invitatin but was puzzled as t why they asked it．In the fllwing days she was asked the same questin again and again and she spent many hurs trying t wrk ut why s many peple kept asking her this．At last she thught that these peple must be cncerned abut(关心) her health．She was rather thin at the time，and she thught they must be wrrying that she was nt eating well!
In fact the questin like that has n real meaning at all — it is nly a greeting．
根据短文内容，判断句子的正误，正确的在括号内写“T”，错误的写“F”。
( ) 1．The yung British wman went t Hng Kng fr wrk．
( ) 2．The British wman went t the bank t get sme mney．
( ) 3．The bank clerk invited the yung British wman t lunch．
( ) 4．The teacher's questin made the British wman happy．
( ) 5．In fact the yung British wman didn't knw much abut Chinese culture．
答案解析
1．T 根据“Once a yung wman frm England...”可知这年轻英国妇女是来香港工作的，故此句表述是正确的。
2．T 根据“ went t a bank t get sme mney．”可知此句表述是正确的。
3．F 通过本文最后一句我们可以了解到，在中国问别人“吃了吗”是表问候，而不一定是真正的想请人吃饭。故此句的错误的。
4．F 根据“After this she went n t schl and was even mre surprised...”可知此句表述是错误的。
5．T 根据文章内容我们知道，这位英国妇女对中国文化不是很了解，所以对“if she had had her lunch”产生困惑。
当然，中考英语阅读理解题的材料远不止这些种类，但只要运用了上面的基本的解题技巧，也能把这个题型做得很好。

The earth's atmsphere(大气) is all arund us．It is the air that we breathe．Greenhuse gases in the atmsphere behave much like the glass panels in a greenhuse．Sunlight enters the Earth's atmsphere，passing thrugh the blanket f greenhuse gases．As it reaches the Earth's surface，land，water，and bisphere(生物圈)，they take up the sunlight's energy．Once the heat is taken up，this energy is sent back int the atmsphere．Sme f the energy passes back int space，but much f it remains trapped in the atmsphere by the greenhuse gases，causing ur wrld t heat up．
The greenhuse effect is imprtant．Withut the greenhuse effect，the Earth wuld nt be warm enugh fr humans t live．But if the greenhuse effect becmes strnger，it culd make the earth warmer than usual．Even a little extra warming may bring prblems t humans，plants，and animals．
