01题型综述

♦题型简介

•推理判断题是高考英语阅读理解中的重要题型，着重考查考生在理解文章字面意思的基础上,对文章深层含义的推

理和判断能力I。它要求考生依据文章提供的信息,通过逻辑推理，归纳总结,分析判断等思维过程，得出文章隐含的意

义，作者的意图，观点态度等内容。这种题型难度相对较高，因为答案不能直接从原文中获取，需要考生具备较强的综

合理解能力。

•文章题材广泛，无论是记叙文，说明文还是议论文都可能涉及推理判断题。考生需要在理解文章主题，结构，细节等多

方面内容的基础上进行推断。

♦命题类型

•推断隐含意义：这类题目要求考生从文章的字里行间推断出没有明确表述的深层含义。例如,通过对人物的语言,

行为和所处环境的描写，推断出人物的性格特征或潜在情感,或者根据事件的发展，推测事件可能带来的潜在影响。通

常提问方式有“Whatcanbeinferredfi-omthepassageabout...?,,ltThepassageimplies

•推断作者意图：主要是判断作者写这篇文章的目的，是为了提供信息(inform),进行娱乐(entertain),表达观点(express

opinions)，发出呼吁(appeal)还是其他意图。例如，在一篇关于环保问题的文章中，作者可能是在呼吁人们关注环

境，减少污染。提问方式如"What'stheauthor'spurposeinwritingthispassage?”"Theauthor'sintentionis

•推断观点态度：要求考生领会作者或文中人物对某一事物的看法或态度，这种态度可能是积极的(positive)，消极的

(negative)，中立的(neutral)，怀疑的(skeptical)等。例如，通过分析作者在描述某个新科技产品时所使用的词汇,

如“remarkable""ground-breaking,5可能表示作者持积极态度，而“problematic'"'controversial”可能暗示消极或质

疑的态度。提问方式有"What'stheauthor'sattitudetowards...?,,ltThetoneofthepassagecanbedescribedas...”

•预测文章后续内容或事件发展趋势：根据文章已有的内容和情节发展，猜测接下来可能发生的事情或者文章下一部

分可能讨论的主题。比如，在一个故事的情节发展到主人公面临一个艰难的抉择时,题目可能会问“Whatklikelyto

happennextaccordingtothepassage?"

♦解题思路

•立足原文内容：推理判断必须以文章内容为依据，不能脱离原文进行主观臆断。仔细阅读文章，理解文章的主题，结构

和细节信息，找出与题目相关的关键部分。

•寻找线索和暗示：关注文章中的关键词，连接词，修辞手法等，这些可能是推理的重要线索。例如,“however”“therefore”

等连接词可以帮助我们理解作者的思路和观点变化，比喻，象征等修辞手法可能暗示作者的情感倾向。

•分析逻辑关系：考虑文章中的因果，对比，类比等逻辑关系。如果文章提到某种现象是由某个原因引起的，那么在推理

时可以依据这个因果关系进行推断，如果是对比不同事物的特点,就可以从对比中得出对这些事物的评价。

•排除干扰选项：对于不符合原文逻辑和信息的选项要果断排除。有些选项可能本身内容正确，但与题目要求的推理

判断无关，有些选项可能是过度推断，超出了原文所提供的范围。

♦命题方式

【常见考法】推理题经常使用的提问方式有：

Itcanbeinferred/concludedthat.

Whichofthefollowingconclusionscanwedrawaccordingtothepassage?

Inwhichofthefollowingpublicationwouldthispassagemostlikelybeprinted?

Thepassageimplies,butdoesn'tdirectlystatethat

Thewritersuggeststhat.

Whafstheauthor'sattitudetoward?

Thewriterprobablyfeelsthat.

Theauthorusestheexamplesof...toshowthat.

除此之外,还要注意几个误区：

①原文信息的简单重复，并不是推断出来的结论。

②文中无关紧要或片面推出的结论。

③与文章内容不符的推论或相反的推论。

④不合常理或不合逻辑的推论。

⑤虽然符合考生的常识,但文中并没有支撑的依据。

02解题攻略

题型01

细节推断题

提分秘籍

运用某种写作手法的目的。作者一般不直接陈述自己的意图，而是通过文章所提供的事实和形象，客观地使读者信服某种

想法或意见。此类题属于得分率较低的高难度题。

写作意图推测题的常见设问方式有：

Forwhatpurposedidtheauthorwritethepassage?

Thewriterwritesthispassageinorderto.

Thepurposeofthetextisto.

Whatisthepurposeofthelastpartofthetext?

Thewriteruses...inthefirstparagraphto.
