读题预判：快速浏览题目与选项，圈出关键信息，像主旨题中的“mainidea”、细节题里的专有名词等，预

判阅读重点，带着问题意识去读文章。

通读抓论点：首次通读，定位文章开头段，多数议论文在此点明主题、抛出论点；同时留意各段首句，它

们常起承上启下、引出分论点的作用，梳理出全文论述脉络。

定位找论据：碰上细节、词义类题目，依据题目关键词，精准回文定位，在定位段落中细读上下文，借助

因果、对比、举例等逻辑关系锁定答案，比如出现"forexample"后的内容大概率是在解释前面论点，对

理解词义、补充细节很关键。

推理重逻辑：面对推理题，紧扣文章已知观点、事实，杜绝过度臆想，分析作者用词褒贬、论证走向来判

断态度倾向；梳理段落、句子间的逻辑链条，像因果推导、让步转折后的语义走向，让推理有理有据。

核查避陷阱：选完答案后，代入原文再次核查，看选项是否契合全文主旨、对应细节是否无误，警惕偷换

概念、无中生有、以偏概全这类常见陷阱选项。
