热点练04阅读理解之日常生活

•就近原则寻找信息线索；

・选项中出现时间年代时，往往要注意与原文中年代的前后对应关系；

・绝对选项常是干扰项，意思太泛太窄要小心；

•警惕无关离题词，两项相近有答案；

•选项对比原文时，与原文重复或同义改写的字越多的往往就是正确选项；

•总体观、相互补，做题不用按顺序，选先做易后做难，莫忘近邻上下文；

•放在段尾的名字有时也会有提示词：①因果连词：②总结性连词；③转折性连词

具体策略：

•注意支干词数最多的选项。一般说来，支干项越长，词数越多，所包含的信息就越多越全

面，当然正确性就越大。对付论述性的文章或科技知识的理解，运用此法特别有效。

•暂缓考虑含有all.every,whole,completely,certainly,surely等词的选项,因为这些词

语表达的意思太绝对，常常有悖于逻辑。

•重视含有perhaps,maybe,almost,possibly,probably等词的选项，因为这些词语使表达

比较婉转，逻辑上成立，符合常理，因而正确率高。

•留心"BothAandC"，“Allabove”或“None”此类的选项，答案的可能性较大，因为它们包含

的信息较多。

•关注：“Wedon'tknow."、"Itisnottalkedaboutinthepassage."或"Wearenotsureaboutthis.^^

这样的选项，因为此类选项的表述十分巧妙，让你忙乎了半天找不到答案，最后再以这样的

表述跟你开个玩笑，使你难以置信，不敢下手，实际上很可能它就是正确答案。

•含something,certain»somebody等不定代词

•变化的是角窣change,delay,improve,postpone,increase

•重要的、根本的、基础的是解important,realbase,bebasedon,onthebasisof

•简单的、具体的不是解，复杂的、概括的、抽象的经常是解；照抄原文的不是解，同义替

换的经常是解；合理项经常不是解，不合理项经常是解。字面意义的不是解，深刻含义的可

能是解。

•含义相互矛盾的经常是解，绝对的一般不是解（如must,always,never,themostall,only,

any,none,entirely）o

•含义肯定的一般不是解，含义不肯定的经常是解。不肯定的词：can,could,may,usually,

might,most,moreorless,nearly,notenough,suggest,partial

一、定位

1、题干选项：①数字、年代②大写字母③生僻且复杂的词（专业词汇）④中心概念（相

关、相近），一般前三种情况出现的较多。

2、顺序原则：即出题顺序与文章段落一般情况下是一致的，但也有例外。

个人经历，成长经历，生活理念，感人事迹，健康生活。
