01题型综述

♦题型简介

新闻报道是高考英语阅读理解中常见的一种体裁，通常包括消息和通讯两大类。硬新闻指的是具有时效性的客观事

实报道，如经济，科研，考古等，软新闻则偏重情感，轻松的社会新闻，不注重时效性。高考英语选用的英语新闻多属于科

技及社会新闻。新闻报道的第一句往往为全文的中心句，包含what（事件）,when（时间）,where（地点）和who（人

物），而下文则补充事件的过程和细节，包括why（目的或原因）和how（具体过程）。新闻报道的时态一般用过去

时，主句，从句结构清晰，语言客观平实。

♦命题类型

>细节理解题：考查新闻事件的六要素,题型主要为细节题。

>观点推断题：考查对新闻事件的观点，题型主要为观点推断题。

>指代推断题：考查语篇衔接，推断某一特定词或者短语的指代内容。

>主旨归纳题：考查概括主旨，题型主要为主题归纳题。

♦解题思路

•研读首段，确定中心人物或者事件，把握主题：导语部分提供了丰富的解题线索，包括

Who,What,When,Where,Why,How六要素的信息点。

•直接读题,判断题目类型：在把握文章主题后，直接读题干，了解题目所属类型和所需回答问题的要点和关键词。

•根据不同题型，采用不同定位方式查找信息：细节题可以通过中心人物或事件作为标签，到文章查读含有这个信

息的句子,观点推断题可能需要跨越几个段落，所以难度较大。

•利用新闻的结构特点：新闻报道的结构通常为“标题一导语一正文一结语”，其中导语概括通篇,正文具体描写，结

语总结概括。

•关注语篇衔接手段：新闻报道中会使用很多的语篇衔接手段，尤其是代词的使用，考生需要正确理解这些代词所

指代的内容。
