2024年中考英语（盐城地区）重难题型突破常规题型二阅读理解课件

重难题型突破第二节常规题型题型二阅读理解⁠

⁠

考情分析分析盐城近五年中考真题可以看出，阅读理解的命题具有以下特点：1.题数：2023年，2022年，2020年，2019年都是4篇（3＋3＋4＋5），2021年4篇（3＋4＋3＋5）。2.文体：每年文体均衡分布，近年来出现了书、小说节选、非连续性文本等形式的阅读材料，涉及话题广泛。3.词数：第一篇大多在200词左右，第二篇在200～330词之间，第三篇在250～320词之间，第四篇近三年都在350词左右。4.题型：以细节理解题、推理判断题为主，每年都有1～3题是关于整篇文章的主旨大意题或者是关于整个文章的推理判断题。⁠

⁠

方法点津1.先读问题，弄清考查要点，带着问题看文章。2.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，至少要扫视一下首尾段。3.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，应注意以下几点：（1）

抓住四个“W”和一个“H”，即边读边用铅笔做标记，把What（事件）、When（时间）、Where（地点）、Why（原因）、How（经过）圈出来。（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、转折及承上启下等各种连接上下文的特殊功能。（3）

根据题意，初选答案。4.重读原文，仔细斟酌答案。在解完最后一题后，如果时间允许，再将原文读一遍，并用全文的主题思想思考各题，研究其内在联系，对答案进一步审查。⁠
