中考英語閱讀理解復(fù)習(xí)

中考英語備考名師精品資料一一閱讀理解

一、解題策略指導(dǎo)

閱讀理解能力測試的主要要求是：

1.讀材料的主旨和大意，以及用以說明主旨和大意的事實和細節(jié)。

2.既理解具體的事實，也理解抽象的概念。

3.既理解字面的意思，也理解深層次的含義，包括作者的態(tài)度，意

圖等。

4.既理解某句，某段的含義，也理解全篇的邏輯關(guān)系，并據(jù)此進行

推理和判斷。

5.既能根據(jù)所提供的信息去理解，也能結(jié)合中學(xué)生應(yīng)有的常識去理

解。

中考英語閱讀理解題主要是考查考生綜合運用所學(xué)語言知識的能力，

包括閱讀能力、理解能力、歸納概括能力、邏輯推理能力以及對材料

的評價能力等。

試題中所選的閱讀文章題材多樣化，涉及政治經(jīng)濟、社會文化、

風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣、歷史地理、科學(xué)技術(shù)等各個方面。（這要求學(xué)生平時對各

方面的知識都有所積累，做個有心人）體裁多樣化，包括記敘文、說

明文、議論文、應(yīng)用文以及新聞報道、廣告、通知、操作說明、表格

（要求學(xué)生能看懂這類閱讀材料尤其是時下出題的趨勢）等各種文體。

它要求考生閱讀理解準(zhǔn)確度高、閱讀速度快。

大致來說，主要針對如下方面：1.文章的個別詞或句子，可以給

出生詞讓學(xué)生猜意，對此類題目學(xué)生應(yīng)盡量在閱讀材料中找定義或解

釋；2.文章的某細節(jié)或情節(jié)；3.文章的主題；4.文章的背景知識；5.

文章的結(jié)論或結(jié)局；6.文章內(nèi)涵的隱義或寓意等。主要是考查考生綜

合運用所學(xué)語言知識的能力，包括閱讀、理解、歸納概括、邏輯推理

以及對材料的評估能力等。

具體來講主要有以下兒種題型：

具體信息：這種題目比較簡單，只要通讀全文，了解文中所敘述

的重要事實或細節(jié)，就可以解答出來，有的甚至可以從文章的原句中

直接找到答案。

語義理解：題目要求對文中個別難詞、關(guān)鍵詞、詞組或句子作出

解釋。解答這類題目時需要對有關(guān)的上下文，甚至整篇文章的內(nèi)容建

立準(zhǔn)確、立體的理解才能做出正確答案。

邏輯推理：這種題目有一定難度，往往不能直接從文中找到答案,

而必須根據(jù)上下文及其相互間的關(guān)系或?qū)φ恼逻M行深層理解后，

才能找到答案。有時甚至還得聯(lián)系作者的意圖、態(tài)度等弦外之音、文

外之意加以推理，才能獲得正確答案。

歸納概括：要求在閱讀和理解全文的基礎(chǔ)上對文章作出歸納、概括或

評價。解這種題目時一，不能只憑文中的只言片語而斷章取義，比如涉

及文章的標(biāo)題(title)、主題(mainidea)、結(jié)論(conclusion)、結(jié)局(end)

等有關(guān)問題，都需要在細讀全文的基礎(chǔ)上，結(jié)合所學(xué)語言知識、背景

知識、生活常識、專業(yè)知識進行邏輯思維推理判斷，從而獲取文章中

內(nèi)隱的信息。

詞意判斷：要求根據(jù)上下文判斷短文中詞或短語的意思。

在閱讀過程中要重視培養(yǎng)自我閱讀能力，根據(jù)不同的閱讀目的和要

求，采取不同的閱讀方法和策略。

提高閱讀能力所常用的閱讀技巧主要有細讀、略讀、全讀等。

掃讀：是一種快速閱讀方法，主要在于對文章信息的精確定位，鎖定

重要信息，如找出人物、時間、地點、數(shù)字等。

略讀：也是一種快速閱讀，目的是讀取文章的主旨大意。與掃讀不同

的是，略讀是跳躍式的，略掉一些東西不讀，取出短文中的關(guān)鍵性東

西。

細讀：細讀是完全閱讀，目的包括（1）確定中心思想及標(biāo)題；（2）

了解用以闡述中心思想的事實及細節(jié)；（3）對作者的暗示或隱含思想

進行判斷、推理、引申；（4）根據(jù)上下文推測詞義。

擴大視距：要以意群為單位，注重對整句話的理解，擴大注視空間。

帶問題閱讀：先瀏覽短文后面的題目，做到心中有數(shù)，帶著目的去閱

讀，以提高閱讀實效。

根據(jù)上下文猜測詞意：遇到生詞，要根據(jù)上下文線索和暗示、上下文

的聯(lián)系、常識和經(jīng)驗推斷或猜測詞意。

3.Theyoungman'seyesightwasreallyweak.

答案

1—3FTF

解析

本題屬于閱讀理解正誤判斷題。從文章的選材來看，是一篇故事性的

短文。內(nèi)容大意是描寫一個叫Jeff的年青人，他不想去服兵役，在體

檢時假裝自己的視力不好而去欺騙醫(yī)生。醫(yī)生相信了他，因此他不能

去參軍。而晚上在電影院時，Jeff碰巧又遇到了醫(yī)生。Jeff非常聰明，

又用一句謊言而蒙混過關(guān)。此閱讀材料共設(shè)三道小題：

第一小題題干的意思是說這個年青人想當(dāng)兵。文章中沒有一句話直接

告訴考生這句話的答案是不對的，但從整個短文的意思來看，他是不

喜歡參軍的，否則他也不能假裝視力不好。這道題屬于推理判斷題。

第二道小題，題干的意思是說醫(yī)生開始的時候相信了年青人的話。這

道題屬于語義理解性題目，在短文中第六段中“Atlastthedoctor

thoughttheyoungman'seyesightwastoopoor.”這句話中可以看出答案

是正確的。

第三道小題意思是說這個年青人的視力真的不好。這道題的設(shè)題上屬

于邏輯推理性題目，因為從文章的最后一段可知，他視力如果不好，

就不可能去看電影，也不可能認(rèn)出醫(yī)生來。本道題是閱讀理解中的第

一篇，故事情節(jié)幽默，句子簡單易懂。難度不大，旨在緩和考生面對

中考時的緊張情緒?？忌诖痤}中先讀懂短文，理解短文的大意和脈

絡(luò)，然后依據(jù)短文內(nèi)容對試題后給出的句子進行是非判斷。同進，對

每一道題進行判斷時;應(yīng)從文章的具體段落和句子中找到判斷的依

據(jù)，不能憑印象想當(dāng)然。對有些似是而非的句子，一定要認(rèn)真識別，

只有完全符合文章意思的方可判定為正確。

答案

1—4ABDC

解析

本題屬于閱讀理解選擇題，是中考閱讀理解最常見的題型。本文是一

篇科普性的文章，通過介紹我國科學(xué)家袁隆平及他所培育的雜交水

稻，以及他在自己平凡的工作崗位上為國家做出的杰出貢獻，向?qū)W生

滲透熱愛科學(xué)的理念，培養(yǎng)學(xué)生腳踏實地，認(rèn)真做事、做學(xué)問的求實

精神。

第一道小題的設(shè)題屬于語義理解性題目，在世界的什么地方可以種植

水稻，從文章中的第一段中“Farmersgrowriceinmanycountries

只有答案A中用的"lotsof"這個詞，many與lotsof是同義詞，因

此從這句話可以選出答案A是正確的。

第二道小題也屬于語義理解性題目，從第二段的第一句話“Chinais

theworld'slargestrice-growingcountry.”可以推斷出答案B是正確的。

第三道小題屬于直接理解性題目，從第二段中的“Itmakes20%more

ricethananyotherkind."可以選出答案D是正確的。

第四道小題屬于歸納概括性題目，需認(rèn)真閱讀全文，仔細推敲每個答

案：答案A具有片面性，文章中說他是theFatherofHybridRice而不

是theFatherofRice；答案B的題干是hisricetofeedallChinese,而

在文章中說halfofChina'sriceplantsareYuan'sspecialhybridrice,此

答案明顯是不正確的；答案C是正確的；答案D的題干是growing

differentkindsofrice,而從文章中可以得知YuanLongping只是種植

雜交水稻。答題時考生要在正確理解短文內(nèi)容的基礎(chǔ)上，認(rèn)真看清短

文后的題目內(nèi)容和要求，然后根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，運用分析、排除等方法

選擇正確答案。對短文中沒有直接說明又無法從短文所提供的材料上

明確做出判斷的，就要在理解字面意思的基礎(chǔ)上進行深入分析、推理,

或聯(lián)想短文材料以外的常識加以考慮，從而推斷出正確答案。

解析

本題屬于閱讀理解回答問題題。文章的題材是考生熟悉的校園生

活的短文，是有關(guān)學(xué)生的課外活動，共涉及了四個活動的名稱，介紹

了活動相關(guān)的時間、內(nèi)容和參加人員等等。第一道小題，問的

是每個月學(xué)生們多長時間看一次電影，屬于考查細節(jié)。從文章中的第

二段中的第一句話“EveryweekthereisaFilmNightofpopularChinese

andEnglishfilms."可以看出是每周看一次電影，而一個月通常是四

周，因此答案應(yīng)是Fourtimeso

第二道小題，問的是誰能參加中國書法課？屬于語義理解性題目，通

過對文章中的第三段的“Theseareopentothewholecity.”這句話的

理解，可以知道此小題目的答案應(yīng)是Allthepeopleo

第三道小題，問的是學(xué)生一個月做幾次中國食品。此題的設(shè)題同第一

小題是相同的，也屬于考查細節(jié)性題目。從第二段中的“Everytwo

weeks"中可以知道每兩周一次，那么一個月就應(yīng)該是兩次，因此正

確答案應(yīng)是Twice。

第四道小題，問題是學(xué)校有哪些活動？此題屬于歸納概括性題目，需

在閱讀和理解全文的基礎(chǔ)上對文章做出歸納，共有四個，分別是Film

Night,CookingNight,FunNightandChinaNighto考生在答止匕類試題

時，首先弄清楚問的是什么信息(what,when,where,why,how等)；

然后再根據(jù)對文章的理解和把握組織自己的語言，寫出正確答案。可

以用完整的回答方式，(Theycanseefilmsfourtimesamonth.),也

可用簡短的回答方式，如(Fourtimes.)o此道題考查了學(xué)生的綜合概

括能力和處理信息的能力。

答案

1.rainy,umbrella2.held,Sunday

3.over,pay4.listeners,alone/themselves

解析

本題屬于閱讀理解填空題。所選文章的體裁是實用文體，有圖表、廣

告、海報等形式，圖文并茂，所涉及的內(nèi)容有球賽、天氣預(yù)報、音樂

會和圖書館書目、音像簡介等，具有時代感強、實用性強、可讀性強

的特點，貼近學(xué)生的日常生活。

第一道小題設(shè)題是有關(guān)天氣的，第一個空問的是在ineastcoasts的天

氣是什么樣的？屬于考查細節(jié)性題目，從文章中的"Eastcoastswill

haverain.”此句話中可以得知，應(yīng)是下雨的天氣，而設(shè)題是“itwill

be"，應(yīng)用形容詞來形容天氣，因此可以得知答案應(yīng)是rainy；

第二空設(shè)題屬于邏輯推理性題目，you,dbettertakeanwithyou.

在文章中不能直接找到此題的答案，但是根據(jù)對文章意思的理解和推

斷，下雨就應(yīng)該帶傘了，因此答案應(yīng)是umbrella。

第二道小題是有關(guān)足球比賽的，第一空是考查學(xué)生對題干的理解,The

footballmatchwillbeinJinzhouStadium,根據(jù)句意應(yīng)填"舉行”

這一詞，答案為held；而第二空on,此空明顯是填相關(guān)日期

的，屬于直接理解性題目，從文章來看，可以填日期，也可填星期，

但題目要求只能填一詞，因此只能填星期Sunday。

第三道小題是有關(guān)圖書館書目的，第一空間的是每次借書的數(shù)量，屬

于語義理解性題目，從文章中borrowfivebooksatmostatonetime這

句話中可以得知每次最多是借五本，而設(shè)題Youcan'tborrow

fivebookseachtime,當(dāng)然是不能超過五本了，"超過"這一詞應(yīng)是

overo第二空問的是看錄像應(yīng)該怎么樣，從文章中的最后一句keepa

videoforaweekfor1dollar和設(shè)題youshouldforwatching

videos可以得知是應(yīng)該付費的，與for搭配的動詞是pay。

第四小題是有關(guān)音樂節(jié)的，設(shè)題是Adultscan5tgotothemusicfestival

foryoung.從文中“MUSICFORYOUNG

LISTENERSv和“Eachadultmustcomewithachild.”這兩句話中可

以得知，年青人必須和父母一起來，因此答案第一空應(yīng)為listeners,第

二空應(yīng)為alone/themselves,屬于考查細節(jié)性題目?？忌诮獯祟愵}

時先認(rèn)真閱讀所給的短文、圖表或廣告，掌握其內(nèi)容后，再細讀所給

待補全的句子。解題時，可帶著問題到原文中去尋找答案，尋讀原文

中與之相關(guān)的句子。先確定空格處所填詞的詞義，然后再判定其詞形。

解這類題時，應(yīng)注意信息轉(zhuǎn)換，同義句改寫等。
