排序题通常出现在说明文、记叙文或人物传记类的文章或段落的理解题中。要求根据某人所经历事情的时间先后排序,或按某事物的发展变化过程排序,或按操作程序或制作过程先后排序,或许按重要性排序等。
首尾定位法巧解排序题 首尾定位法巧解排序题 这类题属于事实细节题,只需浅层理解,难度较小,一般从阅读材料中可以直接找到答案,但是这种题容易错,比较耗时间。题中含有原文单词、词组、句型的转述,再以a, b, c, d, e, f 等给事件标上序号。
解答这类题的具体过程如下:
第一步,在a~f中画出关键词或特征词。
第二步,寻读,在文中找到a~f的对应信息,并在文中标上a~f。这样可使顺序一目了然,也减少阅读量。
注意年代数词和表示时间先后关系的词,如then, after, shortly after, afterwards, after that, before that, in the same year, later, and, next , at last, finally, so等。
第三步,弄清“首事件”和“尾事件”,利用“排除法”,迅速缩小范围,快速选出正确答案。也就是所谓的“首尾定位法”。 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。 1. How many novels written by Fitzgerald are mentioned in the passage?
A. 5.
B. 6.
C. 7.
D. 8.
即学即用 A 本文为记叙文, 主要讲述了著名美国文学家弗兰西斯·司各特·菲茨杰拉德的生平、生活及其重要作品。
A
细节理解题。由文章中第三段的两处关键词novel和greatest success可知他的小说有:This side of paradise, The Beautiful and Damned,
The Great Gatsby,(须排除两处干扰项的关键词collection of short stories 短篇小说集),第四段的第四句的关键词novels 提到Tender Is the Night and The love of the last Tycoon,共计5篇小说。

_________.
A. had made some money when he met Zelda in Alabama
B. was well educated and well off before he served in the army C. would have completed more works if his wife hadn’t broken down D. helped his friend get rid of drinking while his wife was in hospital
C
C
推理判断题。由第四段第一句的However, Fitzgerald’s problems with his wife Zelda affected his writing可知,和妻子间的问题影响到了他的创作。
3. The passage is mainly about
.
A. Fitzgerald’s family and work
B. Fitzgerald’s life and literary works
C. how Fitzgerald fell in love with Zelda D. how Fitzgerald got addicted to alcohol
B B
主旨大意题。通过跳读和寻读可得知第一、二段主要讲述了菲茨杰拉德的生平、生活,第三段简介他的作品,第四段讲述了在他妻子生病、自己酗酒期间他完成了两部小说,由此得知本文主要讲述著名文学家菲茨杰拉德的生平、生活及其重要作品 。
4. The passage is probably followed by a concluding paragraph about
.
A. Zelda’s personal life
B. Zelda’s illness and treatment C. Fitzgerald’s friendship with Graham D. Fitzgerald’s contributions to the literary world
D
推理判断题。根据人物传记的特点和本段对菲茨杰拉德生活、作品的描述,
说明了菲茨杰拉德的作品对文学界的意义,
因此最后总结的应是关于菲茨杰拉德对文学界的贡献。
D 5. Which of the following is the correct order to describe Fitzgerald’s life according to the passage? a. He became addicted to drinking.
b. He studied at St. Paul Academy.
c. He published his first novel This Side of Paradise.
d. The Great Gatsby won high praise.
e. He failed to reorder his life.
f. He joined the army and met Zelda.
A. f-c-e-a-b-d
B. b-e-a-f-c-d
C. f-d-e-c-b-a
D. b-f-c-d-e-a D D
把握事件发生顺序。题干关键词为 correct order to describe Fitzgerald’s life可知本题是要求考生把握事件发生的顺序。句子b和f在第一段,时间连接词分别为once和in 1917; 句子c和d在第三段,时间连接词分别为in 1920和in 1925; 句子e和a在第四段,时间连接词分别为during the 1920s 和while his wife was in hospital。由此确定发生最早的是b项,最迟的是a项,答案应为D。
