文体特点

高考阅读理解涉及的文体只有四种：应用文、记叙文、说明文、议论文。每种文体的写

作目的也非常固定。

文体类型写作目的

广告吸引读者完成购买的行为

应用文

指南提供读者所需的帮助信息

记事通过单一事件讲述个人感悟

记叙文写人通过多个事迹塑造人物形象

心理通过剖析心理体现态度转变

事实介绍事物现象概念的相关特点

说明文

研究介绍调查研究的过程结论意义

行为教育读者采纳正确的行为建议

议论文

意识通过大量事例引起读者的重视

你在高考试卷里看到的所有阅读理解，就是上面这四种文体九种类型里面选择三到四

个。记叙文的“心理类”在考试里出现的几率非常低，也就是说，只要你判断出了文体，每

种文体的写作目的就是二选一。这就是宏观的解题思路.

应用文和记叙文的文体非常容易区分：应用文会出现各种如项目符号、小标题或表格之

类的特殊格式，记叙文则有明确的重点人物和事件前因后果。

很多人对于区分说明文和议论文有障碍，实际上这两种文体的差别非常大。说明文以客

观介绍事物特点性质为主，不会掺杂作者个人的主观态度，而议论文则是作者在某个有冲突

有矛盾的问题上表达个人观点，主观态度非常明确。所以区分说明文和议论文，只要注意两

点：

1、是否有矛盾冲突问题的背景：

2、作者是否在表达个人主观态度，

应用文文体

1：细节题——“定位”划记题目中的关键词（大写字母；人名；数字）——划记名词，

形容词；动词一一般划记关键词数量为两个；以防止定位不准。A篇一模一样可以选

（rarely;merely;hardly;scarcely;only;must隐含式否定副词）completely完全地

suddenly突然certainly一定ensure/guarantee保证thorough彻底的

2：原因型细节题：why/purpose/aim（目的；原因todo/inorderto/fbr/when/if7so；冒

号；破折号——解释说明

3：文章来源：novel小说sciencefiction科幻小说textbook教科书

travelbrochure旅行手册=83<16指南websiteCclick;browser；link；screen）newspaper

advertisement广告notice通知magazine杂志

4：写作目的：A篇应用文：广告一购物；吸引：促销旅行指南一介绍；描述

1）提问写文章的目的：回答文章主旨

介绍（人物；产品；解决方法等）一客观

广告（通常带有引导性话语）——吸引

通知一告知信息

注意：引导性话语通常为让读者采取行动（买产品或参加活动等）

2）第一段的作用或第一段提及某人/物等的作用（举例）——文章结构

引出文章话题（leadto/introducethetopic/theme）（首选）

注意：有时选项为topic的具体内容

3）中间某段的作用（根据段落的具体内容）

给出建议（靠后）说明好处进一步阐明观点…

Introducethebackgroundinformation（中间段）

记叙文文体

记叙文是以写人、记事、状物为主要内容，以记叙和描写为表达方式的文章。一篇记叙

文，无论长短都应该是一个完全独立的事实，描写人物、地点、事件和过程，表达作者的某

种情感。主要具有以下特点：

选材新颖、生动、真实、典型的素材描写，让读者有身临其境的感觉。

记叙文应该包括六要素，即：时间、地点、人物、起因、经过和结果。可以

内容

按事件发生的时间顺序写，也可以按事件发生的先后写。

形式顺叙、倒叙、插叙。

一般过去时为主，各种时态为辅，合理使用丰富多彩的谓语动词时态是英语

语言记叙文首要的语言特征；多用动词，尤其是动态强的行为动词是英语记叙文乂一

个明显的语言特征。

命题主要集中在多个事件的先后顺序与人物的情感态度上。

体裁结构

1.记叙文的开头通常交代事件的背景，即事件发生的时间、地点、有关人物等内容。

2.记叙文的展开(中间)通常以人物活动的时间顺序、空间位置变换、事件发生的顺序

或人物的主次性格特征为行文线索。

3.记叙文的结尾通常是依照事件的发生、发展和结局这样•个自然的顺序来结尾。

写作意图

1.讲述故事(tell/narrate/relateastory)

2.分享经验(shareanexperience)

3.纪念人物(rememberaperson)

4.阐明道理(communicateanidea/conveyamessage)

解题策略

高考英语记叙文设题主要集中在细节理解题和推理判断题，因此，阅读这类文章时，应

该在整体把握文章结构的前提卜.，一方面要依据文章的顺序和故事的发展弄清一系列事件的

先后顺序以及它们之间的逻辑关系，必要时可以对事件进行排序；另一方面，还要根据人物

的处境和描写、议论时所用的特定词语来准确把握人物的情感与态度，做到入情入境，特别

要留意描写和议论时所用的形容词和副词。具体答题策略如下：

(1)首段法：首段主旨句；转折词后；破折号后

(2)核心名词法：

核心名词在文章中高频出现。

可是“原词”或“同义词”不断曝光。

(3)合并法：整合各段落大意，整合各段落首段信息

(4)首位呼应法：整合首段和尾端信息

策略指导技法解读

弄清六要素何人、何时、何地，因何原因做了何事，结果如何，有何启示或感想。

弄清写作目的证明一个观点；赞美某种美德；谴责某种罪恶；提供娱乐。

关注开头和结

把握事情的动向，尾段经常是主题的升华所在。

尾

关注情感主线分析事情的发展脉络，弄清人物关系,透析文章的情感主线。

词义猜测题(实词释义；代词指代；短语释义；句子释义)

1：名词一看周围是否有相关词一上下义；破折号解释；从句

2:动词一同词性词一连词修饰成分

3:形容词；副词一褒贬；主题；语境

4:句子一语境；情感；主题

5:代词指代一代词是指代前面出现的名词

1.根据转化、合成、派生构词法进行判断。掌握了一定的构词法，就不难猜出它的词

义。

2.根据上下文解释作出判断。有时短文中出现一个需猜测其意义的词或短语，下面接

着出现其定义域或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。

3.根据上下文的指代关系进行选择。文章中的代词it,that,he,him或them可以指

上文提到的人或物，其中it和that还可以指一件事。有时代词指代的对象相隔较远，要认

真查找；有时需要对前面提到的内容进行总结，才能得出代词所指代的事。

4.根据同义词和反义词。抓住文中表示递近或转折的词语，如表示转折或对比的

otherwise,however,while,insteadof.ratherthan,although,but,onthecontrary.表示递近的and,

aswellas,notonly...butalso,表示选择的or等。

5.根据因果关系进行判断.俗话说，“有因必有果，有果必有因”。根据原因可以预测结

果，根据结果也可以找出原因。

6.根据同位关系或定语从句进行判断。阅读中有时出现新词、难词，后面就跟着一个同

位语或定语从句，对前面的词进行解释，有时这种解释也用连词“。门连接。

7.通过例子来猜测同义：通过文中所举出的例子进行归类，从而归纳出该集合名词的

词义。提示词有suchas,fbrexample,fbrinstance,andsoon,like等。

8.通过标点符号。如起着解释说明作用的破折号，并列列举的逗号等，或通过信号词

(如or,thatis,thatistosay,meaning,standfbr,inotherwords,i.e等)。

9.根据上下文的语境。
