    考点40 阅读理解细节理解题
    高考频度:★★★★★

    在历年高考阅读理解中,对细节理解类题型的考查同往年一样,依然占了较大的比例,全国及各省、市均有对此题型的考查,无一例外。
    细节理解题要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节进行理解。它们大都是根据文章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。有些问题可以在文章中直接找到答案,有些则需要我们在理解的基础上将有关内容系统化才能找到,比如计算、排序、是非判断、图形比较等。
    常见的命题方式通常有:
    1.特殊疑问句形式。以when, where, what, which, who, how much/many等疑问词开头引出的问题;
    2. 以是非题的形式。true /false, not true / false或EXCEPT,近年这种题型较少;
    3. 以According to… 开头提问方式;
    4. 以填空题的形式,如:
    (1)To avoid attracting mountain lions, people are advised________.
    (2)By the first sentence of the passage author means that________.
    (3)It seems that now a country’s economy depends much on________.
    (4)If you are interested in knowing about what people’s life will be, you may visit________.
    (5)The policemen were told “to look the other way” (the underlined part in Paragraph 2) so that________ .
    (6)The policeman who said “Good evening” to Rolls wanted to________.
    5. 就文中数字、排序、识图等提问。
    做细节理解题时,大多数学生易出现的问题是阅读速度太慢,缺乏一定的快速阅读技巧,考生要培养自己快速获取信息的能力。解答此类试题时,不必通篇细看原文,而常常可采取 “带着问题找答案”的方法.先从问题中抓住关键性词语。然后以此为线索。要快速地辨认和记忆事实或细节,就要恰当地运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的段落、语句.仔细品味,对照比较.确定答案。除了运用扫读法(scanning)外,还可以兼用排除法.将“无此细节”和“与此细节相反”的选项排除。
    了解细节题干扰选项的特点也有助于考生提高答题的正确率。一般情况下,干扰项有如下几个特点:(1)是原文信息,但不是题目要求的内容;(2)符合常识,但不是文章内容;(3)与原文的内容极其相似,只是在程度上有些变动;(4)在意思上与原文大相径庭甚至完全相反;(5)部分正确,部分错误。
    有的细节理解题只要直接辨认不要求读者对客观的事实作出解释或判断,只要求从阅读材料中直接获取信息。同时还要求读者记住重要细节,在必要的时候(做判断、推断或结论的时候)能够准确而迅速地将他们回忆起来。解此类题要求考生快速抓住原文中的关键信息,直接得出答案,但要注意往往答案与原文中的语句并非一模一样,而是用不同的词语或句型结构表达相同的意思。有的细节理解题就需要通过有关词语和句子的转换。利用主要事实、图表、图形来获取信息,然后利用因果、类比、时间、空间等关系将零碎的细节经过一系列加工、整理,方能做出正确的判断.此类试题在高考中占大多数。
    值得一提的是,有时原文中的信息可能只是一个短语,甚至一个单词,因此需要我们在阅读中特别仔细才能捕捉到真正有用的信息。
    细节理解题大致有如下几种常考题型:
    题型一 描写类细节题
    描写类细节题,常常考查考生对文中有关人物动作、思想感情、心理活动、观点,或事件的起因、发展、过程、结果等方面的理解。这类描写信息往往较直接,一般不太需要考生对它们进行较深入的理解,对于该类题,考生一般都可以较直接地从原文中找到与题目对应的有关信息。

    【2019·全国卷I,B】
    For Canaan Elementary’s second grade in Patchogue, N.Y.,today is speech day ,and right now it’s Chris Palaez’s turn. The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the of kid who would enjoy public speaking.
    But he’s, nervous.“I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…”Chris trips on the“-ld,”a. pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher ,Thomas Whaley ,is next to him, whispering support.“…Vote for …me …”Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion ,Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.
    A son of immigrants, Chris stared learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls(回想起)how at the beginning of the year,when called upon to read,Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.
    Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley explains,“especially for a student who is learning English as their new language,to feel confident enough to say,‘I don’t know,but I want to know.’”
    Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast(夸耀)about themselves.
    “Boasting about yourself,and your best qualities,” Whaley says,“is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”
    24. What made Chris nervous?
    A. Telling a story. B. Making a speech.
    C. Taking a test. D. Answering a question.
    【语篇解读】本文属于记叙文,讲述Thomas Whaley为了帮助学生学英语以及树立信心专门开展了一个演讲课程。
    24.B
    【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段today is speech day和本段最后一句with shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kids who would enjoy public speaking. 以及第二段第一句But he’s nervous.可知,Chris眼睛黑亮,似乎是那种喜欢公共演讲的孩子,但是他却很紧张,故可知Chris是因为做演讲紧张,故选B。
    题型二 信息寻找题、广告阅读题
    信息寻找题一般在应用文体中较常见,体现于查字典、阅读广告、公告、演出海报、车船航班时间表等之中。这类阅读材料包含的某一方面的信息非常全面,能满足各种人对信息的需求,但在高考试题中,常常是就某一方面提问,考生完全没有必要从头到尾仔细阅读,因为材料中有很多冗余无效信息。做此类题时,宜采用“题干定全法”。即:先阅读题干,然后根据问题要求,有针对性地阅读相关部分快速寻找有效信息。
    广告是阅读理解题常考的一种题材。广告属应用文体。严格来说广告属快速寻找信息题。但是广告有着其他快速寻找信息题不同的特点。广告文体简洁明快,省略了大量的词语,达到了篇幅小、信息多的目的。同时具有语言精练,形象性、鼓动性强的良好效果。广告阅读题多为细节理解题,关键在于正确理解广告内容。考生必须具备较强的语言运用能力,熟悉文化背景,利用各种手段(如:补全、联想、推测等)正确解读广告的内容。通常运用“补全成分法”和“联想推测法”两种方法来解读广告的内容。做题方法同样采用“题干定向法”。
    (1)补全成分法
    省略名在广告体阅读材料中大量出现,可以说广告阅读理解材料中大多数句子都是省略句。我们应结合全文语境及逻辑关系将省略句补全,从而更加准确地理解。如:Driver wanted. 根据文义,可将该句补充为:A driver will be wanted. (招聘一名司机)。
    (2)联想推测法
    在些广告时间、日期、地点、电话、票价等用了缩略词,甚至一概没有提及,这就需要考生前后连贯,充分想象,整体理解。搜寻已知信息,推断语篇意义。
    为节省篇幅,特别是在商业广告中,常使用缩写词,尽管有些缩写不太规范,但却常用,常见的缩写词有:
    Tel. =telephone number
    Ph. =phone Add (r). =address
    co. =company Ltd=Limited
    Max=maximum Min=minimum
    hr=hour t=time
    fig=figure ft=foot
    ml=mile doz=dozen
    Mt=Mountain P=page
    prof. =professor Dr. =doctor
    s=south n=north
    w=west Sta=Station
    pop=popular vs=versus
    Xmas=Christmas info=information
    VIP=very important persons hrs=hours
    aft=after ad=advertisement
    p/t=part time exp=experienced
    PC=personal computer MA=Master of Arts
    BS degree=bachelor's degree (学士学位)

    【2019·北京卷,A】

    The Home of My People

    When Lewis and Clark stepped onto the Weippe Prairie in present-day Idaho in September 1808, they met the Nez Perce Indians. In the following years, the white explorers(探险者)began to fight with the Indians for their land. Some Nez Perce chiefs signed agreements with the U.S. government, selling part of their lands. But the government always broke those agreements and demanded more land.
    Other chiefs refused to go along with the government’s plans. The most famous was Chief Joseph, whose people lived in the Wallowa Valley(present-day Oregon).
    “In order to have all people understand how much land we owned, ”he once explained, “my father planted poles around it and said: ‘Inside is the home of my people…It circled around the graves(坟墓)of our fathers, and we will never give up these graves to any man. ’”
    But in 1874, the U.S. government declared the valley open for white settlement and ordered the Nez Perce onto a reservation(保留地). Seeing that resistance was useless, Chief Joseph agreed to move.
    Later, fighting broke out between the Nez Perce and U.S. soldiers. Chief Joseph tried to lead his people to Canada, winning several battles against the soldiers during their flight. But finally, he was forced to give in.
    1. Which historic site (on the map)lies in the south of today’s Nez Perce Reservation?
    A. Buffalo Eddy. B. Dug Bar.
    C. Joseph Canyon Viewpoint. D. Chief Looking Glass Camp.
    2. What can we learn about the Nez Perce lands from the map?
    A. They were in the state of Oregon.
    B. They have become a historic site.
    C. They have become much smaller.
    D. They were limited to the Wallowa Valley.
    【答案与解析】
    1.D 此题考查学生的图示理解能力。首先要找到并标出现在Nez Perce Reservation所在的位置,然后找到它以南的历史景点。可以看到 Chief Looking Glass camp位于Nez Perce Reservation的南部。
    2.C 从地图中我们可以看到, Nez Perce原先所拥有的土地比现在Nez Perce保留区的位置大多了。
    6.代词指代题解题技能
    代词指代题要求考生一定的上下文推测代词的指代意义。此类题一般是在人物或事物关系比较复杂的情况下使用的一种题型,所以理清人物及事物之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。



    (2016·新课标卷III))On one of her trips to New York several years ago, Eudora Welty decided to take a couple of New York friends out to dinner. They settled in at a comfortable East Slide cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.
    "Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?" the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. "I’m from Mississippi too."
    Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.
    "They began telling me all the news of Mississippi," Welty said. "I didn’t know what my New York friends were thinking."
    Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi state reunion(团聚).
    "My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’" Welty added. "And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’"
    Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.
    "I don’t make them up," she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. "I don’t have to."
    Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.
    26. The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s _______.
    A. readers B. parties C. friends D. stories
    【文章大意】文章介绍了一位女作家请纽约的朋友吃饭时发生的故事。Welty是一位年纪比较大的作家,她来自密西西比。Welty的作品都是来自于现实的生活。
    26.D 【解析】画线的them指代前面提到的人或物,根据"Now we believe your stories"可知,them指代的是Welty写的小说里面的故事,听了Welty和两个陌生人的有关密西西比的谈话之后,Welty的朋友相信了Welty小说里的故事都是来源于生活,故选D。

    Passage3(2019·新课标III卷,D)
    Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.
    A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.
    Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.
    After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.
    When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分)of the smaller number to it.
    "This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, "Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”
    32. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?
    A. They fed them. B. They named them.
    C. They trained them. D. They measured them.
    33. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?
    A. By drawing a circle. B. By touching a screen.
    C. By watching videos. D. By mixing two drinks.
    34. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?
    A. They could perform basic addition. B. They could understand simple words.
    C. They could memorize numbers easily. D. They could hold their attention for long.
    35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
    A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Education. D. Science.
    Passage4(2019·新课标I卷,C)
    As data and identity theft becomes more and more common, the market is growing for biometric(生物测量)technologies—like fingerprint scans—to keep others out of private e-spaces. At present, these technologies are still expensive, though.
    Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with a low-cost device(装置)that gets around this problem: a smart keyboard. This smart keyboard precisely measures the cadence(节奏)with which one types and the pressure fingers apply to each key. The keyboard could offer a strong layer of security by analyzing things like the force of a user's typing and the time between key presses. These patterns are unique to each person. Thus, the keyboard can determine people's identities, and by extension, whether they should be given access to the computer it's connected to—regardless of whether someone gets the password right.
    It also doesn't require a new type of technology that people aren't already familiar with. Everybody uses a keyboard and everybody types differently.
    In a study describing the technology, the researchers had 100 volunteers type the word “touch”four times using the smart keyboard. Data collected from the device could be used to recognize different participants based on how they typed, with very low error rates. The researchers say that the keyboard should be pretty straightforward to commercialize and is mostly made of inexpensive, plastic-like parts. The team hopes to make it to market in the near future.
    28. Why do the researchers develop the smart keyboard?
    A. To reduce pressure on keys. B. To improve accuracy in typing
    C. To replace the password system. D. To cut the cost of e-space protection.
    29. What makes the invention of the smart keyboard possible?
    A. Computers are much easier to operate.
    B. Fingerprint scanning techniques develop fast.
    C. Typing patterns vary from person to person.
    D. Data security measures are guaranteed.

    Passage3(2018·新课标III卷,B)
    Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.
    Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warming. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.
    But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762.
    24. What attracted the early settlers to New York City?
    A. Its business culture.
    B. Its small population.
    C. Its geographical position.
    D. Its favourable climate.
    25. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?
    A. Two-thirds of them stayed there.
    B. One out of five people got rich.
    C. Almost everyone gave up.
    D. Half of them died.
    26. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?
    A. They found the city too crowded.
    B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.
    C. They were unable to stand the winter.
    D. They were short of food.
    27. What is the text mainly about?
    A. The rise and fall of a city.
    B. The gold rush in Canada.
    C. Journeys into the wilderness.
    D. Tourism in Dawson.

    Passage3(2017·新课标II卷,B)
    I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film — it wanted somebody as well known as Paul — he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
    The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other— but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心)of our relationship off the screen.
    We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back— he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.
    I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn’t talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.
    24.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?
    A. Paul Newman wanted it.
    B. The studio powers didn’t like his agent.
    C. He wasn’t famous enough.
    D. The director recommended someone else.
    25.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?
    A. They were of the same age.
    B. They worked in the same theater.
    C. They were both good actors.
    D. They have similar characteristics.
    26.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?
    A. Their belief.
    B. Their care for children.
    C. Their success.
    D. Their support for each other.
    27.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
    A. To show his love of films.
    B. To remember a friend.
    C. To introduce a new movie.
    D. To share his acting experience.

    Passage 3(2018届江西省金溪一中、余江一中等五市八校高三联考)
    We should all let the sunshine in as much as possible--not just because it makes us feel good. Exposure to sunlight produces vitamin D in our skin. This is why we call vitamin D the “sunshine vitamin.”
    Vitamin D is good for everybody. In fact, research shows this "sunshine vitamin" could help women with breast cancer live longer.
    Breast cancer patients who have high blood levels of vitamin D have a better prognosis(/a)than women who don't. A prognosis is how quickly a doctor expects a patient to recover or how long a doctor expects a patient to live.
    Researchers found that these women had less aggressive cancers. They were also 30 percent less likely to die from the cancer or to get it again.
    Researcher Song Yao led the study for the Roswell Park Cancer Institute. He said the study showed that high vitamin D levels improved the patients' prognosis no matter what type or how advanced their cancer was
    Besides fighting breast cancer, vitamin D helps the body in other ways. Most importantly, vitamin D controls how the body absorbs calcium. It also makes sure the body's immune system works normally.
    Several studies show that vitamin D also strengthens the immune system and helps the body fight disease Vitamin D may help reduce your risk of developing heart disease, according to a 2008 study published in the journal Circulation. And it may also help protect you against getting the flu. Other studies have shown that vitamin D might help people suffering from depression.
    Factors in the environment may limit our exposure to sunlight and, therefore, vitamin D. These factors include pollution, using too much sunscreen, spending too much time inside and living in areas with little sunlight.
    So if you can't get enough sunshine, eat foods that are rich in vitamin D: egg yolks, cheese and fatty fish h as salmon, sardines, tuna or mackerel
    How much vitamin D you need is a much-debated topic. The best way to know if you need more vitamin D is to get tested by a doctor.
    1.According to the research, women with high blood levels of vitamin D ______.
    A. live longer than women without B. never get cancer again
    C. have less aggressive cancers D. can recover from cancer earlier
    2.The benefits of vitamin D are _______.
    A. strengthening the immune system                  B. killing cancer cells
    C. promoting the absorption of calcium              D. protecting against getting the flu
    A. abc. B. acd
    C. abd. D. abcd.
    3.To get more vitamin D, people can__________.
    A. eat more food and do more exercise
    B. get exposure to more sunlight and eat foods rich in it
    C drink more water and eat more foods rich in it
    C. eat more food and keep positive
    4.How does the author support the theme of the passage?
    A. By providing research results B. By stating arguments
