31、me,forIcantaffordtheirtuitionevenifIworkedfromdaytonightwithoutstopping.可知，即便作者從白到黑地不停工作，仍然也支付不了兩個弟弟的學(xué)費，故選 C。42. D推理判斷題。由第五段中的“Thoughhispresentjobwasnotsuitableforhislegs，itwasawonderfulstarttohim.”可推斷，由于那個中年人一條腿有殘疾，故這個工作并不是特別適合他，但對他來說，做這個工作是一個全新的開始，故選 D。43. A詞義猜測題。由“Ifyoudidntrun，youwouldgetdrenche

32、d.”可知 drenched 意為“濕透的”。44. D段落大意題。通讀第六段可知，那個中年人的話對作者起了一定的鼓舞作用，于是他奮發(fā)圖強，努力工作，從而使他的家庭條件得以改善，而且也重新返回了校園。45. A主旨大意題。A 項意為“跑出人生的雨季”，根據(jù)文章大意可知該項正確。2019-20202019-2020 年高考英語二輪復(fù)習(xí)閱讀理解練習(xí)（年高考英語二輪復(fù)習(xí)閱讀理解練習(xí)（4 4）（IIII）高考英語任務(wù)型閱讀考前精講精練（答案）高考英語任務(wù)型閱讀考前精講精練（答案）閱讀表達考綱解讀及解題指導(dǎo)閱讀表達考綱解讀及解題指導(dǎo)高考閱讀表達把閱讀和寫作巧妙結(jié)合，是一種主客觀題相結(jié)合的題型，旨在全方位

33、、多角度考查學(xué)生的閱讀、思維和語言表達能力。本題型具有以下特點：、問題設(shè)置形式靈活多樣，綜合考查學(xué)生的多種基本能力。命題涉及標(biāo)題歸納、意圖判斷、代詞指代、補全內(nèi)容、問題簡答以及結(jié)論等，形成對文章全方位、多角度的考查，能全面、客觀地反映學(xué)生“讀、寫、思、譯”等方面的能力。二、答題客觀性和開放性相結(jié)合，突出思維的開放性，給學(xué)生提供廣闊的思維空間。要求考生根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容和自己的理解作答，只要符合題目要求，表述準(zhǔn)確，就是正確答案?？忌梢猿浞终故咀约旱恼Z言表達能力，發(fā)揮思維的多樣性與開放性。三、選材要求文章結(jié)構(gòu)嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)，層次分明，信息量大，包含結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜的難句，適合命題的多樣性。所選文章一般是一篇具有中等難度

34、的說明文、議論文或應(yīng)用文。下面對閱讀表達的命題規(guī)律做一探討，希望對大家備戰(zhàn) xx 年高考有所幫助。一、主旨歸納。這種問題要求在把握好全文或某一段內(nèi)容的基礎(chǔ)上，對文章(或段落)的主旨大意進行歸納。常用的命題方式有：Whatisthetextmainlyabout?(nomorethanxwords)Whatismainlydiscussedinthetext?(nomorethanxwords)Whatadviceisgivenintheparagraph?(nomorethanxwords)大家在進行主旨歸納時，應(yīng)該首先看一看文章首尾段是否對全文進行了歸納，如果這樣，我們通過歸納文章首尾段就能

35、得到文章的主旨；如果上述兩種情況都不存在，我們就需要對全文進行歸納總結(jié)。在歸納文章主旨時，一定要注意扣準(zhǔn)能夠體現(xiàn)文章主旨的關(guān)鍵詞。二、標(biāo)題歸納。這種題型非常類似于閱讀理解中的標(biāo)題選擇題，即要求考生在整體把握全文的基礎(chǔ)上，用最簡潔凝練的語言歸納文章的標(biāo)題。常用的命題方式有：Whatwouldbethebesttitleforthetext?(nomorethanxwords)標(biāo)題歸納和主旨歸納在本質(zhì)上是一樣的，因此一篇閱讀表達不可能同時出現(xiàn)兩種題型，其方法也跟主旨歸納相似，大家可以首先找一找句子的主題句，如果有主題句，可以對主題句稍作加工；如果沒有主題句，就需歸納全文。注意，在歸納文章標(biāo)題時，一

36、要注意扣準(zhǔn)能夠體現(xiàn)文章主旨的關(guān)鍵詞，二要語言簡潔凝練，富有吸引力和特色。三、意圖判斷。根據(jù)特定信息推斷作者的寫作意圖。常用的命題方式有：Forwhatpurposedoestheauthormention.inParagraphx?(nomorethanxwords)這種題型非常接近閱讀理解的命題。大家應(yīng)該分清文章的體裁，如果是議論文，一定要找準(zhǔn)作者的論點；如果是說明文，一定要找出作者說明的中心；如果是應(yīng)用文，要看介紹哪一方面的情況，這樣就能基本把握作者的意圖。四、句子填空。結(jié)合上下文,將短文中的空白處用合適的詞句補充完整,使短文通順，所填內(nèi)容一般是短語或短句，詞數(shù)要求較少。常用的命題方式有：

37、FillintheblankinParagraphxwithproperwords.(nomorethanxwords)在做這樣的題目時，我們特別需要“瞻前顧后”，通過前后文的提示來確定需要補全的內(nèi)容。五、英文釋義。用英語解釋劃線句子，這種首次出現(xiàn)的題型對考生來說有一定難度，也更能考查考生的語言表達能力。常用的命題方式有：ExplaintheunderlinedsentenceinParagraphx.在做這樣的題目時， 我們首先應(yīng)該抓住句子的主干意義，不要被一些附加成分所迷惑。六、回答問題。這類題目在命題方面可能會比較靈活，側(cè)重試題的開放性?？梢跃妥髡哂^點態(tài)度方面提問，也可以根據(jù)文章具體內(nèi)容

38、提問，還可以是自己的讀后感。常用的命題方式有：Whatkindofattitudedoestheauthorhavetowardsthequestion?(nomorethanxwords)Whydoestheauthormention訕 thetext?(nomorethanxwords)Whatdoessth.imply?(nomorethanxwords)Whatcanwelearnfromthetext?(nomorethanxwords)在回答問題時注意不要脫離原文內(nèi)容，而應(yīng)該像閱讀理解一樣，找到原文中的關(guān)鍵信息，在此基礎(chǔ)上合理變通，并結(jié)合自己的觀點給出答案。七、陳述個人觀點。這類題

39、目要求大家在理解原文的基礎(chǔ)上，對原文所涉及的問題、現(xiàn)象進行思考，給出自己的觀點。題目開放性很強。常用的命題方式有：Whatdoyouthinkofthequestionmentionedbytheauthor?(nomorethanxwords)Doyoulikewhatistalkedaboutinthetext?Why?(nomorethanxwords)這類題目要求大家綜合原文材料，發(fā)揮自己的想象，陳述自己對事物的觀點或態(tài)度。因此大家在答題時一定要觀點鮮明、立場正確，不能含糊不清、不倫不類。八、詞義指代。從閱讀理解中的猜測詞義題演化而來，其做題的思路跟閱讀理解相似，即聯(lián)系上下文，找到代詞

40、所指代的內(nèi)容。常用的命題方式有：Whatdoestheword(Linex,Paragraphx)probablyreferto?這類題目要求考生返回原文，找出指代詞，學(xué)會“左顧右盼”，找出與其最接近的名詞、名詞性詞組或句子替換該指代詞，看意思是否通順，最后確定答案。真題示例真題示例(xx(xx 山東卷山東卷) )第一節(jié)閱讀表達(第 76、77、80 題每題 3 分，第 78 題 4 分，第 79 題 2 分，滿分 15 分)閱讀下面短文并用英語回答問題，將答案寫到答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上(請注意 76、77、79 和 80 四個小題后面的詞數(shù)要求)。1 JeanPaulGettywasbornin

46、0. WhatdoestheauthorwanttotellusaboutGettyinthelastparagraph?(nomorethan10words)解析：本篇閱讀表達屬于人物說明文，介紹百萬富翁 Getty 的傳奇經(jīng)歷。76. 段落大意題。Gettywasaself-mademillionaire/Gettybecamerichthroughhisownefforts。由本段后面部分可知本段主要大意為 Getty 通過自己的努力創(chuàng)造了大量財富。77. 填空題。didnotbuyhappinessforGetty。從下文可知 Getty 的家庭生活并不幸福。78. 英語釋義題。Alt

47、houghhewasveryrich,Gettyhatedtospendmoney。這是山東卷第一次出現(xiàn)的題型，核心是同詞替換以及句式替換，要體現(xiàn)讓步關(guān)系。79. 纟田節(jié)題TheytookGettysgrandsonandaskedformoney。根據(jù)題干中 kidnappers 定位第四段第一句tookhis16-year-oldgrandson,anddemandedalargeamountofmoneyforhissafereturn 可知綁匪綁架了他的孫子并要錢。80. 推理判斷題。 Gettymadeagreatcontributiontotheartworld./Gettyhad

48、anotherside。 雖然前面說此人很吝嗇，但最后一段說他花重金建造藝術(shù)博物館，體現(xiàn)的是他對藝術(shù)界的貢獻。閱讀理解Women,beonyourguard.Thereisanewmaleexcusefornotlisteningtous.Arecentstudyshowsthatmenfinditalmostimpossibletolistentowhatwomensaybecausetheirbrainsareoutofsynch（不同步的）withplexfemaletones.Apparently,whenmenlistentoothermenaboutthethingstheycar

54、性聽不進去女性的話的原因，文章后面的內(nèi)容對此進行了闡述。故答案為 B。2Accordingtothenewstudy,mendontlistentowomenbecause.A. whatwomensayareusuallyboringB. theydontcareaboutwhatwomensayC. theycantdealwithfemalevoicesD. theyregardfemalevoicesasmusic答案解析：答案為 C。本題為推理題。由第三段的內(nèi)容可知，男性在聽同性的話語的時候只是用了大腦的前面區(qū)域；然而聽女性的話語的時候，卻更費力，因為要使用通常用來聽音樂的那部分的大

55、腦區(qū)域。故可推斷，男性不聽女性的話是因為他們大腦不能非常容易地處理女性的聲音。故答案為 C。干擾性最強的 D 選項“他們把女性的聲音當(dāng)成音樂”與文意不符。故錯誤。3TheunderlinedsentenceinthefifthparagraphshowsthattheauthorisA. realisticB.humorousC.seriousD.funny答案解析：答案為 B。本題為句意推斷題。結(jié)合第五段的內(nèi)容，作者以女性的口吻談到如果她早意識到她是因為“音樂”而被男人傾聽，她會為此而感到些許開懷。無論何時，如果她想要一場“討論”，就會帶上自己的樂隊，弦號俱全。故可以推斷，劃線部分的語言顯得

56、幽默。4Whatdoestheauthorthinkofthefindingofthenewstudy?A. Shethinksitdoubtful.B.Shethinksitinteresting.C.Shethinksitneedsfurtherproof.D.Shethinksitright.答案解析：答案為 A。本題為細節(jié)推斷題。由倒數(shù)第三段首句“Itisdifficultnottobesuspiciousof”可知，本句話的同義詞就是 doubtful.故答案為 A。5Theauthorwouldmostprobablyagreethat.A. menshouldacceptwhat

57、womensayB. womenshouldtalklessanddomorehouseworkC. howeverbeautifulvoicesmaybe,theywillfinallybeeboringD. therelationshipbetweenmenandwomenshouldalwaysbeimproving答案解析：答案為 C。本題為推理題。從最后一段“Whenyourbeautifultonesarethereallthetime,astheygoabouttheirdailybusiness,youstarttoblendinabittoomuch,untilfinally

58、youbeeakindofbackgroundnoise.”可知，當(dāng)你美妙的旋律每天都出現(xiàn)在男人日常生活中的時候，最后也會變成背景噪音。故答案為 C.A、B 未提及；倒數(shù)第二段首句提到了“mostrelationshipsarelikelytobeeboring.”D 選項與此不符，故錯誤。閱讀理解-Listencarefully,workingpeople,wewouldliketotellyousomethingthatcouldsaveyourprecioustimeandmoney!Bestofall,itisfree!Its“no”.Whatdoyouask?Wellsayitaga
