store to the fast food industry Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago I wanted to save up money and buy my own car so I applied everywhere I could that summer The restaurant called me right away and I thought to myself this is going to be easy Within four hours of my first shift 轮班 I had angry customers who complained how slow I was I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywhere and I heard the words that no 16 year old boy or anyone for that matter wants to hear Mike there s a problem in the men s bathroom and you might want gloves for this one I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be a picnic The manager expected a clean environment and particularly fast service with a friendly smile Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations I love my co workers there and all the customers know who I am Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffees They chat with us workers and joke around Our smiles have just as much to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives as the coffee does From my first job at the restaurant I learned teamwork and devotion I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get I will forever carry the experience that I gained at the restaurant with me as I go forward in my life 81

2010 年高考开始改设四个小题 该题主要考查考生获取与处 理信息的能力以及用英语进行思维和表达的能力 设题考查方向有四种 即 词汇语义题 要求从文中找到一个与所给生词意义最近的代换词 考查考生联系上下文理解词义的能力 细节考查题 针对文章某个细节内容提问 要求用不超过所规定的词数回答问题 主旨大意 题 针对文章主旨提问 一般询问大意 中心思想及文章标题 同样要求用不超过所规定的 词数回答问题 逻辑推理题 针对文章内容要求考生经逻辑推理后 用不超过规定的词数回 答问题 估计今后几年湖南卷阅读简答题的难度会保持不变 会有一个较为稳定的时期 只要考生自己平时多进行训练 做好该题应该不成问题 解题步骤解题步骤 一 浏览试题 画出试题关键词 通过读题 画出题目所需信息的关键词 一可预测文章内容 二便于在阅读文章时有的 放矢地查读有效信息 节省阅读时间 可结合四个小题所涉及的内容来预测文章内容 如此 带着预测 再结合寻找问题关键词的目的去阅读 自然就提高了阅读效率 二 带着问题速读文章 根据试题关键词定位答题信息 在浏览试题 预测文章内容的基础上速读文章 其主要目的是为了找到答题所需信息 而所需信息肯定与试题关键词有关 故可采用略读阅读法 即 紧扣关键词 浏览全文 找 出信息句 阅读时 与关键词无关的句子或段落要速读 而与关键词相关处要细读 因为试 题关键词处不仅仅是答题的关键之处 也是揭示全文主题所在 三 推敲理解信息句 遣词组句答问题 做好阅读简答题此步是关键 因为受词数限制 不能全部用原文信息句作答 而要深层 次地推敲理解信息句 提炼概括出有针对性的语句作答 其主要方法有三 一是采用转换词 性 采用代词 单词代短语 语句转换 提炼主要信息舍弃次要信息等方法精简语句 二是 用概括性的语句归纳信息句 三是采用文章上下文中的有关提示语或信息句中的关键词作答 即 尽量用短文中出现的词组或短语 句子的用词也应以短文中出现的关键词为先 若必须 要用自己的语言组织表达时 则要注意句子结构的精炼 完整和时态的正确 解题技巧解题技巧 一 词汇语义题 词汇语义题目的在于考查考生转述 paraphrase 或解释 explain 某个词或短语在特定 场合下的特定含义的能力 其出题方式为 Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word 重点考查动词 名词 形容词 副词等实词或 动词短语 回答该题时所用词必须与问题中的原词在词性和词的形式上均一致 如 要么都 是动词 且都为动词过去式或动词现在分词形式 要么都是名词 且都用名词复数形式 3 解题时 要找出原词在文章中的同义词或近义代换词 一要注意理解原词在所在句的逻 辑意义 如 解释什么与什么之间的关系 修饰什么事物等 二要注意破折号 同位语从句 定语从句 插入语等具有解释 说明作用的语言成分 以此推敲猜测原词的意义 借此帮助 寻找文中的代换词 例如 2007 年湖南高考英语卷第 73 题 Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word angling 分析画线词所在句 It has drifted across the Canadian Arctic and is now angling toward Siberia 可知 angling 在此 陈述北磁极的现状 说明北磁极与西伯利亚之间的关系 即 北磁极正朝西伯利亚方向 angling 借此分析给予的提示 不难找到信息句 the north magnetic pole is moving due to natural changes in the Earth s magnetic field 和 the pole has been migrating at an average speed of about 10 kilometers per year 由此推断 angling 意为 moving migrating 二 细节设问题 这类题所占比重最大 以 how what why 提问的问题为主 一般说来考生在文章中找 到答案出处并不太难 难的是如何处理 转换信息 从而归纳出问题的答案 因为简答题要 求考生既要用最简短的语言 又不能原封不动地照搬原文的整句话 此外 在回答细节题时 一定要注意提问方式和答案的协调性 不同类型的问题要求有不同形式的回答 不能仅仅为 了答案的简洁而忽略了问题与回答在形式上的对应 例如 就目的提问 就应该用表示目的的用语作答 例如使用 for 短语 不定式短语 就原因提问 答案就应当用 because of 短语或 because 从句 也可用不定式短语作答 就 事件的可能性提问 答案通常用简短而完整的简单句 提问词是 what 多用名词或名词性短 语 名词性从句来回答 提问词是 how 则多用 by doing sth by means of sth 的形 式回答 例如 2009 年湖南高考英语卷第 73 题 What did Grandfather do in Hershey s factory 回答词数不超过 12 个 是就事件的可能性提问 故可用简单句作答为 He pushed the vats of warm chocolate to a storage area 2008 年湖南高考英语卷第 73 题 What kind of tools are the sculptors Not permitted to use 回答词数不超过 6 个 根据第二段的有效信息句 The sculptors bring out their favorite tools that work best on hard iced snow but they are not allowed to employ tools that use electricity 用名词性短语作答为 The tools that use electricity 2010 年湖南高考英语卷第 81 题 What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have No more than 5 words 根据第一段 Linda wakes up and tries to imagine the wide eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them 可用简单句作答为 They will feel greatly surprised 2011 湖南高考英语卷第 83 题 What excuses did the author keep giving herself to stop No more than 9 words 可根据第四段 I kept giving myself the excuse to stop No one would be disappointed No one would even know 来确定答案为 No one would be disappointed or even know 2012 年湖南高考英语卷第 81 题 Why did the author apply everywhere that summer No more than 12 words 根据第二段第二句 I wanted to save up money and buy my own car so I applied everywhere I could that summer 可知答案为 He wanted to save up money and buy his own car 湖南省 2007 年高考考试大纲英语科补充说明 提供的阅读简答题样题的 75 题 What is the villagers main purpose to rebuild their community 回答词数不超过 6 个 此题提问目的 可用不定式短语回答 To keep their culture alive To save their way of life 三 主旨大意题 此类题常见的提问方式有 What is the main idea of the passage text What is 4 the passage text mainly about What is the best title for this passage text 回 答这类题的关键是要抓住文章的主旨句 而文章的主旨句大多出现在三个位置 文章首句 一段末二段首转折后的信息 文章末句 但考生应注意不可照抄原句 而需重新归纳 组织 概括 有的只需稍作归纳或对主题句作适当改写即可 主旨句为判断句式 具有高度概括性 其答案形式有两种 简单句式和词组式 多为名词词组或动词词组 例如 2007 年湖南 高考英语卷第 75 题 全文主题句为首段中的 It has drifted across the Canadian Arctic and is now angling toward Siberia 由下文语义逻辑关系可以推断 angling 即 为 移动 之意 再结合全文内容稍加归纳 可以判断答案为 The north magnetic pole is moving faster 答题形式为简单句式 再如 请根据某文首句 One thing Britain is famous for is pubs and no trip to the UK would be complete without a visit to one of the thousands of pubs across the country 回答问题 What is the best title of the passage 回答词 数不超过 5 个 问题明显是主旨题 直接对应首句 该句是由系动词 is 构成的判断句 具有高度概括性 告诉读者整篇文章在围绕英国的 pub 进行论述 由此判断最佳标题为 Pubs in the UK 答案形式为名词词组式 四 逻辑推理题 逻辑推理题旨在考查考生根据已知信息进行合理推断的逻辑思维能力 要求根据字面意 思 通过语篇逻辑关系 研究细节暗示 推敲作者态度 理解文章寓意后再作回答 提问方 式通常为 Why What can be inferred concluded from What is the author s attitude toward What does the author use the examples of to show 逻辑推理题要求考生在理解整体语篇的基础上 掌握文章的真正内涵 进行合理的推断 具体地说 要注意 要吃透文章的字面意思 从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索 这是推 理的前提和基础 要对文字的表面信息进行挖掘加工 通过分析 综合 判断等 进行深 层处理 符合逻辑地推理 要忠实于原文 以文章提供的事实和线索为依据进行推断 切 忌主观臆想 凭空想象 随意揣测 要把握句 段之间的逻辑关系 了解语篇的结构 把 握作者的写作思路 例如 2008 年湖南高考阅读简答题的 75 小题 Why did Team USA win the competition in 2006 回答词数不超过 15 个 文章只是在倒数第二段提到美国队在 2006 年冰雕锦标赛上荣获冠军 但未直接提到获奖原因 而需考生作一定的逻辑思维推理 既然美国队的冰雕作品能获奖 自然是因为评委们认为他们的作品是最好的 评委们又是根 据什么确认他们的作品是最好的呢 自然就想到了评奖细则 而文章第四段的 The judges then vote on creativity technical skills and visual impact of the designs 就 提到了评奖细则 由此可判断作答为 Because its sculpture was judged the best for creativity technical skills and visual impact 再如 2009 年湖南高考阅读简答题的 74 小题 Why didn t Hershey fire Grandfather 回答词数不超过 10 个 文中没有直接用 一个句子说出我爷爷保住工作的原因 而是通过最后一段 Hershey 所说的话 It s not your fault son I need to watch where I m going 来暗示 Hershey 没有解雇我爷爷 的原因是因为他意识到错在自己而不是爷爷 由此可判断作答为 Because he realized it was his own fault Because he realized it was not Grandfather s fault mistake 误区警示误区警示 一 读懂问题上出错 2010 湖南高考 What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have No more than 5 words 错误透析 They will feel greatly surprised 在高考阅卷时发现有的考生甚至连 问题中的 reaction 是什么意思都不清楚 对问题中的关键词都不理解 怎么能谈得上对问 题的全面了解呢 解题指导 读懂问题 查找线索 如解答词义题时 可注意找出原词在文章中的同 义代换词 如果没有 还应注意破折号 同位语从句 定语从句 插入语等具有解释 说明 作用的语言成分 考生可先读懂问题 后浏览全文 并在文中标出问题中的线索词 以保证 其答案至少在内容上能够做到完整无缺 也有的考生对文章内容了解不详细 导致对问题答 非所问 5 二 语言简练 准确 概括性上出错 2011 湖南高考 81 Why did the author feel guilty No more than 9 words 错误透析 She had a quarrel with her husband 有的考生在回答本题时文字拖泥 带水 表达不简练 甚至有的考生用词超过九个 解题指导 语言简练 准确 概括性强 为了不至于忘掉字数限制 考生要采用一 些小技巧进行形式上的浓缩 比如 可利用缩写 将 could not 缩写为 couldn t 尽量用 词或短语代替句子 尽量用简单句代替复合句等 当然解决问题的关键是使自己的语言有概 括性 比如 对同类现象找出共性 进行概括 三 抓关键词及主题句上出错 2012 湖南高考 84 What did the author learn from his first job No more than 11 words 3 marks 错误透析 He learned teamwork devotion and staying positive in rough situations 本题是综合理解题 提问作者从他的第一份工作中学到什么 根据记叙文意义 升华在尾段 定位到最后一段 From my first job at the restaurant I learned teamwork and devotion I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get 答案受字数限制需要合并句子 修改为 He learned teamwork devotion and staying positive in rough situations 解题指导 学会抓关键词及主题句 一篇文章的关键词构成语篇的精髓 抓住了关 键词 不仅有助于理解文章 而且表达上也能言简意赅 正确选用关键词比自己去组织答案 要准确 简练得多 也省时省力 对于主旨类试题 第一步是找出概括文章中心思想的主题 句 但还需将主题句重新归纳总结 否则 照抄原句是要扣分的 然而 并不是所有的主旨 类试题都能在原文中找到主题句 对于原文中没有提供主题句的主旨题 就需要考生利用关 键词自己归纳总结答案 四 提问方式和答案的协调性上出错 2010 湖南高考 82 Why did Linda join the American Women s Club of Toronto No more than 10 words 错误透析 She joined it for fellowship and community service 就目的提问 答案就应当用表示目的的用语 如 for 短语 不定式短语 解题指导 注意提问方式和答案的协调性 不同类型的问题要求有不同形式的回答 不能仅仅为了答案的简洁而忽略了问题与回答在形式上的对应 就原因提问 答案就应当用 because of 短语或 because 从句 提问词是 what 只能用名词或动名词短语 名词性从句 来回答 掌握这一原则有助于增强考生回答题目的针对性 五 语言上出错 2011 湖南高考 84 How is running different from jogging to the author No more than 10 words 错误透析 Running makes her feel good while jogging makes her look good 该题的回答用了两个动名词作主语 同时使用了 make 宾语 宾语补足语的结构 回答准确 结构严谨 但有的考生将 run 用不定式 而 jog 又用动名词 前后表达形式不一致 解题指导 避免语言错误 组织答案要认真细致 避免使用不熟悉的句型 词汇或 短语 尽可能利用原文中的关键词语回答问题 要避免语言形式错误 如拼写错误 标点符 号错误 大小写错误 特别是回答问题时要注意首字母需大写 同时避免语法错误 要注意 主谓是否一致 时态与原文是否对应等 总之 简答题基于理解 重在表达 简答题的答案 要精炼概括 言简意赅 体现 简 与 准 二字 总而言之 阅读理解的简答题 对学生用英语获取信息 处理信息 分析和解决问题的 能力提出了较高要求 它要求老师在平时注重对学生用英语进行思维和表达能力的培养 引 导学生增加词汇储备 通过广泛的阅读及正确的方法培养良好的阅读习惯 提高阅读速度和 理解能力 这具有很好的后效作用 一 2012 湖南十二校联考 6 Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart 购物手推车 They will in a lifetime push the shopping carts many miles But few will know or even think to ask who it was that invented them Sylvan N Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937 At that time he was in the supermarket business Every day he would see shoppers pushing groceries around in baskets they had to carry One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers and would help to attract more business On June 4 1937 Goldman s first carts were ready for use in his market He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving He couldn t wait to see them using his invention But Goldman was disappointed Most shoppers gave the carts a long look but hardly anybody would give them a try After a while Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren t using his carts Don t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket one shopper replied But Goldman wasn t beaten yet He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try To this end Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping Seeing this the real customers gradually began copying the phony 假冒的 customers As Goldman had hoped the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market But not only did more people come those who came bought more With larger easier to handle baskets customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before Today s shopping carts are

You have often heard it said Don t sweat the small stuff When it comes to unnecessary worry everything is small stuff however when it comes to paying attention to details in your business or personal life there are no small things One of my favorite titles for a book is Elephants Don t Bite which describes how big things are rarely what you have to worry about It s the small details that trick us into making a mistake Elephants don t bite but mosquitoes always do Think of your last good experience in a restaurant or on a flight If you really examine what made this a good experience you will discover that it was quite likely a series of small things or even one small extra detail The unexpected kind greeting or warm thank you makes all the difference in the world When I look at the list of my favorite restaurants one of the details that will get an establishment on the list is to know and remember my name The waiter or host may have simply checked the notebook before greeting me by name However it really doesn t matter as much that they know my name as it matters that they go to the extra effort to discover my name and greet me like a valued custome
