一、五点注意
注意一:试题各小题所提供的四个备选项,有的是语法、结构上有错误,有的是与短文意思不相符。解题时要把有结构、语法错误的先排除,再考虑是否符合短文内容。
注意二:对短文中的生词或看不懂的句子,应大胆根据构词法及上、下文意思进行猜测,尤其对涉及文中某个词或某个句子含义的选择试题,要根据文章所阐述的主要内容及上、下文内在逻辑关系,大胆分析推断,去伪存真选出正确答案。
注意三:对于涉及文章主旨、大意、作者意图及短文标题等选择试题,虽然短文中没有直接说明,可统观全文,通过短文所提供的材料或联想短文材料以外的常识,如结合已学过的自然、社会科学知识加以综合理解、分析推测或按作者的思路进行推理,从而且推断出正确答案。
注意四:做选择试题时一般先做在文中能直接找到依据的细节题,后做主旨题、推理题。这样在对语篇有更多领悟的基础上再进行推理判断和概括总结,把握性就更大。
注意五:阅读的顺序一般是先读短文,再看题目,然后逐题作答。若文章较长,也可以先将测试题目通览一遍,然后带着问题阅读文章。这样对与答题有关的段落、句子反应敏感,而对其他与答题无关的部分可以不必花费太多时间,阅读速度就可加快些。

People often say, “Children can’t do math problem, it’s because parents can’t do their children’s homework.” Here’s an example to show what I mean.
The other day my daughter brought home her math homework. “I have to subtract (减) 179 from 202,” she said.
“It’s quite easy,” I said. “You put the 202 over the 179.”
“But we need a 10 here. Where is the 10?”
“I don’t know where the 10 is. Let’s just subtract 179 from 202. Nine from two is three. You carry one and add it to seven. Eight from zero is two. The answer is 23.”
“We can’t do it that way. We have to use the 10.”
“Well, I’m going to call your teacher to see how she subtracts 179 from 202.”
Over the telephone, I said that I was having a bit of trouble with the homework she had given to my daughter. The teacher said, “In the right-hand column (栏) we have units of one. The two in that column counts for two ones. The zero in the center counts for zero tens. The two in the left-hand column counts for hundreds. Are you clear?” But I didn’t think I was clear.
I hung up and found my way to the medicine box. My head was now hurting. I started putting pills of medicine into my mouth. “How many did you take?” my wife asked. “I took one and then I took another…I know one and one was two, but don’t ask me what it is now.”

【答案与解析】
(A) 假日里,亨利喜欢到海边去旅游。有一次,他想去西山农场享受一下田园风光,并计划在那儿度过一个月的时间。可是令人惊奇的是,才去四天之后他就回来了。当朋友问起其中的缘由时,亨利说道:第一天,农场里死了一只羊,晚餐时美美地吃了一顿烤羊肉;第二天农场死了一头牛,又吃了一顿烧牛肉;第三天农场死了一头猪,结果又吃了一顿烤猪肉。可是,到了第四天,农场主死了,我不敢再留下来吃饭了。
1. A。第二段的首句“...but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper.”即是答案的出处。
2. D。本题考查根据语境进行分析判断的能力。由上下文,显然可知这是报纸上的一则广告信息。
3. C。本题考查通过上下文对词汇的推测能力。根据亨利的叙述可得出此答案。
4. B。这由“A different meat every day, and you are complaining!”一句可知。
5. C。本来打算要在乡村农场过一个暑假,结果四天之后就回来了。这能不是个短暂的假期吗?用此作标题既切合题意,又具有幽默的味道。
(B) 这篇短文分为三个落:第一段列举了科学家研究了人们每天要吃的食物;第二段讲述了不同国家的人们饮食习惯和饮食结构等各方面有很大差异。但这些对人来说都没不是很重要的,重要的是每天吃什么。第三段阐述了两个问题:如何解决世界人口的吃饭问题,既要吃饱,又要吃得健康。
6. A。本题属表层理解题。由第一段科学家建议七大类食品可知答案非A莫属。
7. D。由“The important thing is what you eat every day.”及第一段的内容可知D是正确答案。而根据第二段可知A、B、C皆为错误的。
8. D。第二段开头的“People in different countries and different places of the world eat different kinds of things. Foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways.”这两句是解答本题的关键。
9. C。根据第三段所讲的内容,C项显然是错误的。
10. B。A、C和D都是在上文刚刚谈论过的,又根据第三段“There are two problems, then, in feeding the large number of people on the earth.”所提的两个问题,可以推知下文可能要谈论如何解决这两个问题。故答案为B。
(C) 作者向我们讲述了很多人都可能遇到的一个问题:父母往往回答不上来小孩子问的一些非常简单的数学问题。文中作者的女儿向他询问怎样计算202减去179这道题。结果,他的女儿不但弄不懂他的解释,而且他还无法解释清楚女儿提出的问题。他只好向女儿的老师求助,而自己被老师的解释搞得天昏脑胀……
11. D。细读第二段,再联系父女俩的谈话即可得出答案。
12. B。根据“but I didn’t think I was clear.”以及“I took one and then I took another…I know one and one was two, but don’t ask me what it is now.”可知B项是错误的。
13. A。根据短文内容,那位老师所说的“”她的意思是说“个位上的数字是几就表示几个一”,当然应是小于1的数。
14. D。由“My head was now hurting.”这句话,可知“父亲”听了老师的解释后没有生气、焦虑或悲伤,而是头昏脑胀,疲惫之至。
15. C。选项A是不现实的,而选项C、D更是荒诞离奇。体会一下文末一段“父亲”的举动,就可以想起他是一种什么样的心情。
