　　The engineer Camillo Oliver was 40 years old when he started the company in 1908.At his factory in Ivrea, he designed and produced the first Italian typewriter. Today the company’s head office is still in Ivrea, near Turin, but the company is much larger than it was in those days and there are offices all around the world. 专题六│ 专题预测 By 1930 there were staff of 700 and the company turned out 13,000 machines a year. Some went to customers in Italy, but Olivetti exported more typewriters to other countries. Camillo’s son, Adriano, started working for the company in 1924 and later he became the boss. He introduced a standard speed for 专题六│ 专题预测 the production line and he employed technology and design specialists. The company developed new and better typewriters and then calculators(计算机)．In 1959 it produced the ELLA computer system. This was the first mainframe computer designed and made in Italy. 专题六│ 专题预测 After Adriano died in 1960, the company had a period of financial problems. Other companies, especially the Japanese, made faster progress in electronic technology than the Italian company.

　　In 1978, Carlo de Benedetti became the new boss. Olivetti increased its marketing and service networks and made agreements with other companies to design and produce more 专题六│ 专题预测 advanced office equipment.

　　专题五│ 专题预测 Head teachers criticized the move, which they said would pile more pressure on schools and students. But universities insisted that the reforms were unavoidable, because A-level exams were no longer an accurate barometer(标准)of ability. 专题五│ 专题预测 In 1986, 40 percent of students starting at Oxford achieved straight. As at A-level, Mike Nicholson, its admissions director, said that this year almost every candidate offered a place would get perfect grades. It meant the university had to stage additional tests to identify the most able candidates. “The ability to achieve three A grades is no longer the end-point in the admissions process，” he said. “The potential to achieve three A grades will allow them to enter the race for a place.” 专题五│ 专题预测 Oxford is not the only university turning to aptitude tests. At Cambridge, the number of students taking the university’s Thinking Skills Assessment shot up 26 percent to more than 3,000. A survey of 16,830 sixth formers applying to higher education from private schools last year showed that 2,860 had to sit at least one exam. 专题五│ 专题预测 Earlier this year, the National Foundation for Educational Research recommended that most sixth formers should sit SAT tests—a standard reasoning exam widely used in American colleges—to make it easier to pick out the best candidates. 专题五│ 专题预测 ()1.

　　Sitting on the peaceful coast of Galapagos Islands，Ecuador，watching the sun move quietly into the sea，you shouldn’t forget that Charles Darwin(1809—1882) arrived here in 1835.He stayed on the islands for five weeks，observing various animals.This finally inspired(启发) his famous work，On the Origin of Species.You can certainly follow Darwin’s footsteps and enjoy a trip from four to seven days to the islands. 　典例导练 专题六│ 典例导练 The islands are certainly a paradise(天堂) for wildlife，as there are no natural killers on the islands and the number of boats and visitors is under government control.Though you cannot walk freely as Darwin did about 200 years ago，each day is as impressive as it could be. 专题六│ 典例导练 The most well-known animal of the Galapagos is the giant tortoise(巨型陆龟)，which can be seen moving slowly around the highlands of Santa Cruz，the second largest island in the archipelago(群岛)．Some of these creatures are so old that they might have been seen in their youth by Darwin himself.

Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia. 专题五│ 典例导练 Not that it was easy.

　　Poorer children would be offered the chance to attend lessons on Saturday to help catch up with their middle class peers(同龄人), the Shadow School’s secretary, Michael Gove said today. The Conservatives would give English state schools the freedom to choose to have longer teaching hours and extra classes at the weekend, he told the Association of Teachers and Lecturers’ annual conference. 　专题预测 专题五│ 专题预测 Gove said the move would help to close the achievement gap with richer children whose parents could afford extras such as tutoring and music lessons.

　　He told delegates(代表)in Manchester, “For children who come from homes where parents don’t have the resources to provide additional stretch and cultural experiences, there are benefits in having those children in the learning environment, in school, for longer.”

　　专题五│ 专题预测 “Parents would love to have schools starting earlier in some circumstances, and certainly going on later in the afternoon, given the reality of their working lives，” he said. He held up the example of Kipp(Knowledge is Power Program)schools in the US, which are often based on the poorest communities and open from 7：30 a．m. to 5 p．m. on weekdays, plus Saturdays. 专题五│ 专题预测 But it would be up to schools to decide to offer longer hours, Gove added.

　　Parents said Saturday classes could become a “badge of dishonor” if pupils were forced to go, while teachers raised concerns about their workload. 专题五│ 专题预测 Margaret Morrissey, of Parents Outloud, said, “I think the suggestion the government made about one-to-one teaching for these kids would be a more preferable way of improving these children’s performance. I’m just not sure whether taking away a child at weekends is actually going to make them cleverer in the week.” 专题五│ 专题预测 The ATL’s general secretary, Mary Bousted, said, “If we want Saturday schools, then we need more teachers doing the extra hours, not the same teachers working longer.” ()1. The program is intended for children

　　B．whose parents can’t afford extra

　　help

　　C．who perform poorly academically

　　专题三│ 专题预测 said they found the dog about a year ago wandering along a street.

　　But where had Muffy spent the previous eight years? And how did she get all the way to Melbourne—about 1,200 miles from Brisbane? “Nobody knows，” Pilgrim said. “The mystery continues for old Muffy.”

　　专题三│ 专题预测 “Muffy was suffering from a severe allergic(过敏的)reaction to fleas(跳蚤)and has been under treatment since the RSPCA removed her from the Melbourne home，” Pilgrim said. “The dog, which the Lampards originally adopted from a RSPCA shelter near Brisbane, is recovering well and should be in good enough shape to fly back home on Tuesday，” Pilgrim said.

　　专题三│ 专题预测 Lampard got Muffy as a gift for her now 17-year-old daughter Chloe, and the two had been friendly with each other, Lampard said. “After the RSPCA called, I rang my daughter and asked her if she was sitting down, then told her they’d found Muffy，” Lampard said. “She’ll burst into tears when they see each other again.

　　People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions—and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why. Rachael Jack，University of Glasgow researcher，said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀地) across a face as Westerners do，Easterners fix their attention on the eyes. 　典例导练 专题三│ 典例导练 “We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions，”Jack said.“Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure，whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect(忽略) the mouth.” 专题三│ 典例导练 According to Jack and her colleagues，the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed.As a result，facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations. 专题三│ 典例导练 The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories：happy，sad，surprised，fearful，disgusted，angry，or neutral.They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies. 专题三│ 典例导练 It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did.“The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection or cultural difference in facial expression，”Jack said.“Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion，Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.” 专题三│ 典例导练 In short，the data shows that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion.From here on，examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion.Otherwise，when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures，Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 专题三│ 典例导练 ()1.　The discovery shows that Westerners 　 　________. 　A．pay equal attention to the eyes

　　Angus MacLeod was fifty and he had spent his entire life as a shepherd in the remote mountainous region of northwest Scotland. He had never owned a radio or television nor had he travelled further than forty kilometres from his birthplace. His knowledge of the world was 　专题预测 专题二 │ 专题预测 gained only from his brief trips to the village to sell his sheep and buy food. However, he had lately come to rely on the growing number of hill-walkers in the region as sources of international news. 专题二 │ 专题预测 In the spring of 1992, a Spanish student came across Angus high in the mountains.

　　专题二 │ 专题预测 Within minutes a thin young man came along carrying an extremely long pole. He approached the official at the door and said “Pole Vault”. The official moved to the side and the man entered. Next came a heavy-set man with a spear. Angus wondered how a man could carry 专题二 │ 专题预测 such a dangerous weapon in a modern city. The man shouted “Javelin” and was pleasantly admitted. Angus was puzzled. Perhaps they were all connected with security. His puzzlement grew when a huge man appeared with a steel ball in his hand.

　　专题二 │ 专题预测 An hour later he reappeared dressed in a tracksuit with “Scotland” written across the chest. Over his shoulder he carried a roll of barbed wire(铁丝网).

　　do in the end? A．Help him carry the wire. B．Refuse to let him in. C．Give him a close inspection. D．Lead him to the competition. 专题二 │ 专题预测 参考答案： 　(一) 【文章大意】 文章向我们描述了一位生活在大山里，而又很渴望了解外面世界的一个孩子了解世界的方式以及他的反应。 1．D　细节理解题。由第一段的最后一句话“However, he had lately come to rely on the growing number of hill-walkers in the region as sources of international news.”可知这是他除了父亲之外的一个新的获取信息的方式。 专题二 │ 专题预测 2．A　细节理解题。倒数第二段告诉了我们“He opened his programme and sure enough under the heading ‘events’ he saw the three words(就是上文提到的‘Javelin’， ‘Pole Vault’， ‘Shot Putt’) the men had said.”可知答案，关键词为“events”。 专题二 │ 专题预测 3．B　细节理解题。由第二段的“Excited by the student’s colourful description of Spain and the Games, Angus decided to attend the event in person and two months later arrived in Barcelona.”可以看出，这位西班牙学生的描述使Angus很兴奋。 专题二 │ 专题预测 4．A　推理判断题。第一段告诉我们，50岁的Angus MacLeod 生活在大山里，消息比较闭塞，没有收音机也没出过远门，只能从来爬山的人那里了解一些情况。下文也告诉我们，下文的他对听到的消息兴奋的表现(看到运动员带着装备进去他也拿了铁丝网要进场)也证明了这一点。由此可见poorly-informed(意为“孤陋寡闻的”)最能描述他。 专题二 │ 专题预测 5．B　推理判断题。文章告诉我们，那些拿着装备的人都是参赛者(competitors)，而他不是参赛者，肩上扛着“a roll of barbed wire (铁丝网)”，并且“as casually as he could, shouted，”肯定会被拒之门外的。 专题二 │ 专题预测 　(二) I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girlfriends. Little did I realize that casualness would certainly lead to loss. 专题二 │ 专题预测 　 Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted FAIL in more than half the subjects. I didn’t care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me. 专题一 │ 典例导练

　　5. C　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Mary Moore 所说的话“I’ve come to realize the importance of that as I’ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”可推断她想尽可能地去帮助他人，故选C。 　专题预测 专题一 │ 专题预测 (一) Roger Yonchien Tsien(born on February 1, 1952)is an American biochemist and a professor at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California, San Diego.

　　(一)

　　【文章大意】 本文主要介绍了Roger Yonchien Tsien获得诺贝尔奖以及他的科学家血统的家族和他的学习经历、学术研究等。 1．B　推理判断题。通过第二段“Tsien had a number of top engineers in his extended family”以及此段后面列举的Roger Yonchien Tsien家族的父辈、祖父辈等都是科学家之类的表述得知他们家族很有科研方面的天赋。而A中的“born in China”文中没有提到，虽然有说他的父母是从浙江过去的。由文中第一段“He was 专题一 │ 专题预测 awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry for his discovery and development of the green fluorescent protein (GFP)with two other chemists Osamu Shimomura and Martin Chalfie.”并不能说明他获得的成就高于另外两人。通过“The famous rocket scientist Tsien Hsue-shen, regarded as the co-founding father of JPL of Caltech and later the director of the Chinese ballistic-missile program, is a cousin of Tsien’s father.”可以看出D的表述刚好反过来了。 专题一 │ 专题预测 2．B　词义猜测题。通过上文对Roger Yonchien Tsien这位科学家获得2008诺贝尔化学奖以及后文对他在科研方面突出成就的描述可以猜出，此处的renowned应该是 “闻名于世”的意思。 3．D　推理判断题。通过第二段对他家族如此多的科学家的表述，最后再用“Tsien, who calls his own work molecular engineering, once said, ‘I’m doomed by heredity to do this kind of work’”．由此推测这句话最可能的意思就是祖祖辈辈遗传下来，让我命中注定要做这个工作的。 专题一 │ 专题预测 4．C　细节理解题。由第二段“including his father Hsue-Chu Tsien，who was a mechanical engineer and his mother’s brothers who were engineering professors at MIT”得出，MIT一定是个地名。而前面又说是professors, 故它最有可能是个大学名字。A错误，是因为第一段“the green fluorescent protein (GFP)”；B错误，是因为第三段“He attended Harvard University on a National Merit Scholarship,

　　专题一 │ 专题预测 where he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa as a junior.”其中哈佛大学才是university; D错误，是因为第四段“Since 1989 he has been working at the University of California, San Diego，”从中可以看出，加利福尼亚大学在San Diego市。 5．D　标题归纳题。A、B、C均不全面。前三段对Roger Yonchien Tsien获得诺贝尔奖以及他的科学家血统的家族和他的学习经历分别进行了介绍。 专题一│ 专题预测 　(二)

　　Michael Joseph Jackson was born on August 29, 1958. He was born in Gary, Indiana. He was the seventh child out of nine children in his family. Michael was often physically abused by his father, beaten up and also verbally abused. But Michael also owed his success to his father’s being strict.

　　专题一│ 专题预测 Michael was always an entertainer. Even when he just joined school, he would perform in front of friends and classmates. Michael started his professional music career at the age of 11, as a member of The Jackson Five.

　　专题一│ 专题预测 He’s well-known for increasing the popularity of MTV through his music videos. Before this, music videos were made just to promote the albums. But Michael’s videos managed to change that in videos being made as an art, and for big business. Some of the music videos that are good examples of this fact are Beat It, Billie Jean, and Thriller.

　　专题一│ 专题预测 Michael Jackson supported 39 charities. Through his work and various foundations, he raised and donated millions toward charity, much more than any other showman. He had great love for children, especially the poor ones, and he felt children were the next best thing after God.

Even when he just joined school, he would perform in front of friends and classmates.”可判断选C。 专题一 │ 专题预测 3．B　细节理解题。综合第三段尤其根据该段第一句“He’s well-known for increasing the popularity of MTV through his music videos.”可判断选B。 4．C　词义猜测题。根据下文“The moonwalk is something that people from every part of the globe loved and tried to imitate.”中“loved and tried to imitate”的提示可推断画线词为“迷住、吸引”之意，故选C。 专题一 │ 专题预测 5．D　推理判断题。文章主要介绍了迈克尔·杰克逊的童年、音乐事业、慈善事业，及其对他的评价。由此可推断，文章写作目的旨在让读者了解迈克尔·杰克逊，由此推断选D。 专题二

With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously, he sped down the rough road. As the bees came closer, his panic increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings(蜇).

　　模块３│ 题型探究 The last sting had landed him in hospital—and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his father’s words came to him. “When you are in a tight situation, don’t panic.Use your brain and think your way out of it.” 模块３│ 题型探究 On a nearby hill, he could see smoke waving slowly skywards from the chimney of the Nelson family home. “Bees don’t like smoke，” he thought. “They couldn’t get into the house.” Andy raced towards the Nelson house, but the bees were gaining ground.

　　阅读中最棘手的恐怕要数所选的短文出现无主题句的情况。如果没有主题句，考生可以采用提纲挈领法，通过分析细节把文章的要点归纳出来。尤其是记叙文，作者有时仅仅叙述事件所发生的时间或介绍人物，并不发表自己的观点，因此主题往往比较含蓄和隐蔽。这时可以回顾全文来概括文章的主旨，具体方法是：

　　模块３│ 题型探究 1. 判断出文章的主题究竟是指一个人、一个地方还是一件事情或者是某一事情的过程。总之，人、物、地点、思想或过程都可以成为文章的主题。 2. 读完一篇短文后应有意识地回味一下文章的大致内容，理一理文章的脉络，体会一下段与段之间的内在联系，一般来说文章的中心就能概括出来，涉及文章大意主旨方面的题目自然会在头脑中由模糊变清晰。 模块３│ 题型探究 ?　探究点三词义猜测型

　　历年高考都把猜测词义作为考生应该掌握的一项阅读技能列入试题，词义猜测可以是一个单词的意义猜测，也可以是一个短语或句子的意义猜测，既可以是生词意义，也可以是熟词新意，还可以是对替代词所替代内容的猜测。 模块３│ 题型探究 【命题形式】

　　1. 根据定义、解释或同位关系来猜测词义

　　句子中有些词其前或其后的文字中就有该词的定义或解释，我们可通过对其定义或解释的理解推测出它的词义。定义、解释多样，常用“to be defined as, to be called, that is to be, to mean, to refer to, that is (to say), in other words, namely”等词语预示着下文对前文的信息加以重复或解释。还有一些标点符号，如：冒号、破折号、括号等都表示后文要继续解释说明前文。 模块３│ 题型探究 2．依据反义词和对比关系猜测词义 运用对比手法描述事物或现象是文章写作的一种常用的修辞手法。在这种修辞手法下，作者常借用一些信号词来提供相反信息，从而表明一个词与前面的另一个词互为反义。常用的信号词有：but/yet/however/nevertheless; while/whereas;

　　otherwise/or else; unlike/instead/rather than; by contrast/compared to; on the contrary/ on the other hand 等。 模块３│ 题型探究 3．依据逻辑推理猜测词义 运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式。要求考生具备整合分散复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文中相关的词汇并结合具体的语境，从形式和内容上把握语言之间的内在联系，理顺语言之间的逻辑关系，进而达到猜词的目的。常见的逻辑关系有：因果关系、同位关系、对比关系、转折关系等。此外，考生还可以依据词性变化和词义变化(词义引申)来猜测词义。

　　A．likes huntingB．is afraid of hens C．loves his wife

　　D．is afraid of his　wife 模块３│ 题型探究 【解析】 D　依据标点符号猜测词义。破折号起进一步解释说明的作用。由句前信息 “他为逃避妻子的唠叨而逃到屋外”可知“他是一个怕老婆的人”，因此选D。

　　解答推理判断题时，应清楚所要解答的问题是针对某个细节进行推断，还是针对主题思想。针对细节的推断，可首先通过辨认细节、事实的追忆技巧，了解并理解有关的事实或证据，然后运用查读法，迅速在阅读材料中确定推理依据的位置或范围，并对这些事实或证据进行分析和评价，然后再进行推理判断。针对主题思想作推断时，先根据主题思想，再分析句子之间的逻辑关系，区分观点与例证、原因与结果、主观点与次观点，要注意抓住关键词、短语、句子或段落，透彻理解文章 模块３│ 题型探究 内容，注意文章结构层次和逻辑关系，并结合阅读材料外的有关生活、社会的常识，仔细斟酌，作出准确的推断和引申，也要借助常识作出合理的推断和判断。 1. 推测上下文的的内容 (1)推测下文的内容：关注最后一段的内容，尤其是最后的两三句话，根据作者的思路进行推理。 (2)推测上文的内容：关注第一段，特别是文段开始的几句话。 模块３│ 题型探究 2．根据事实细节，推断合理信息 推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，作出一定判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话，也可能是某几句话，但做题的指导思想都是以文字信息为依据，既不能作出在原文中找不到文字根据的推理，也不能根据表面文字信息作多步推理。也就是说，要做到判断有据， 推论有理， 忠实原文。切忌用自己的观点代替作者的本意，切忌片面思考，得出片面结论。 模块３│ 题型探究 3．推断作者的观点 应当全面理解文章的内容及文章的中心思想，注意能够表露作者思想倾向和感情色彩的形容词、副词、动词及所举的例子。 4. 推测写作目的 不同的文章可能有不同的写作目的， 但写作目的通常有以下三种： (1)娱乐读者，让人发笑(to entertain readers，to make people laugh)，常见于故事类的文章。 模块３│ 题型探究 (2)说服读者接受某种观点(to persuade readers)，常见于广告类的文章。 (3)告知读者某些信息(to inform readers)，多见于科普类﹑资讯报道类﹑文化类或社会类的文章。 模块３│ 题型探究 例　[2010·浙江]

　　2．正确处理好复杂句式、生词和选项的关系

　　高考阅读的长句、难句的数量逐年增多。结构复杂、修饰语叠缀、信息容量大的句子在新课标的高考试卷中频频出现，有时一个句子占几行甚至一个自然段，这就造成了理解的困难，而且也增加了考生的心理压力。为此，建议大家对这些拦路虎加以正确区分对待：与题目无关，不影响理解文章大意的，就不必浪费时间和精力；相反，那些和题目相关的长难句，我们就要首先分析其类型(是带 模块３│ 应试点睛 有较多成分的简单句，还是含有多个简单句的并列句，还是含 有多个从句的复合句，还是含有多个插入成分的句子)，然后理清句子成分，去除干扰成分，抓住句子主干，这样就能准确把握句子的意义。 对待生词也应该采取同样的方法。首先看看生词是否与题目、文章的大意有关，如果是题目要求所必需的，我们就要弄清楚生词所处的语境，以及和下文的联系，推测生词的含义，否则就忽略它。

　　模块３│ 应试点睛 3．正确处理好所需信息与剩余信息的关系 我们在做题时，没有必要把每一句都弄得清清楚楚，只要重点理解与题目有关的信息就可以了。这就要求考生在答题时，最好先大体浏览一下文后的题目，确定主攻方向，然后带着问题阅读文章，特别要关注首尾段和首尾句，把握文章的主题和脉络，摘取有用的材料，舍弃无关的信息。然后针对测试题的要求，细心阅读与问题有关的词汇、句子或段落。

　　模块３│ 应试点睛 4．所选有据，忠实原文，避免主观 做题时，我们必须以作者的思维模式为准绳，以原文提供的事实、细节和逻辑关系为自己思维活动的基准点，切忌把自己的观点和看法当作原文或作者的观点。同时，符合原文的选项是正确选项但不一定就是最佳选项，阅读题要求选的是最佳选项，有的选项从某个枝节来看是对的，但从全文来看则不是最佳的，因此，必须通盘考虑，取主要，舍枝节。

　　模块３│ 应试点睛 二、明确步骤，战无不胜 1．阅读题干，明确问题。在阅读文章之前，可以通过题干对文章进行初步了解。这样，在下一步阅读时就可以针对问题直接找答案，减少了盲目性。 2．快速掌握大意，不在细节上纠缠。在第一步的基础上迅速阅读并对文章有大致的了解，这是选出正确答案的前提。 模块３│ 应试点睛 3．阅读问题题干及其选项，在文中寻找相关的材料并预选答案。可在文中相应处作标记，以便进一步了解并最终确定答案。 4．带着问题略读原文，确定选项。答完所有题目后，再快速阅读一遍文章，检查各题所选选项是否正确。查看各题选项是否前后照应，与原文有无矛盾，文中是否有疏漏的重要线索。

　　模块３│ 应试点睛 三、知己知彼，减少失误 有时候四个选项中总有一个极易误选，因此，了解阅读理解题中的干扰项的特点，可以大大减少我们不必要的失误。概括起来，干扰项可分为以下三种类型： 1．与原文矛盾。即选项与文章内容相矛盾。这种选项的干扰性较小，只要仔细阅读就可排除。 模块３│ 应试点睛 2．无中生有。即选项与文章内容不矛盾，但在文中没有相关信息支持，没有根据。这类选项的干扰较大。在做此类题时，切忌把自己或他人观点作为选择依据。 3．答非所问。选题与题目关系不大，选项没有针对题目来阐述。这类题目干扰性也较大。同学们在做此类题时，不仅要判断选项内容的正确性，还应注意选项是否针对题目。

　　6．Why was the bike so important to the couple? 【解题策略】

　　1. 掌握技巧，灵活运用 (1)细心审题，直接就题找答案。解答此类试题时，不必通篇细看原文，而应采取“带着问题找答案”的方法，先从问题中抓住关键性词语(题眼)，然后以此为线索，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。 模块３│ 题型探究 (2)变通理解，间接转述找答案。细节理解题通常采用词语和句型转换的形式来取代原文中的表述，命题者在出这类题时惯用“偷梁换柱、张冠李戴”的手法来迷惑考生，即对原句细微处做改动，截取原文词语或结构进行改造，因果倒置，把A的观点说成B的观点等。所以正确理解题干和信息句的意义是关键。 模块３│ 题型探究 (3)多点归纳，综合事实找答案。细节理解题有时考查的并不是单一的信息，而是多处信息的整合。解答此类“综合”信息细节题时，一定要全面捕捉相关信息，进行综合分析、归纳，切忌根据“一面之词”草率地作出结论。 模块３│ 题型探究 2. 了解特点，对症下药 (1)直接信息题 直接信息题能直接从原文中找到信息，而且选项和原文在语言表述上也没有大的变化或有时候仅仅在表达方式上稍作转化。 例　[2010·宁夏海南]

　　… The Birthplace is within easy walking distance of all the car parks shown on the map; nearest is Windsor Street(3 minutes’ walk). 模块３│ 题型探究 The House may present difficulties but the Visitors’Centre, its exhibition, and the garden are accessible(可进入的) to wheelchair user.

　　()A wheelchair user may need help to enter ________.

　　A．the House B．the garden

　　C．the Visitor’s Centre

　　D．the exhibition hall 模块３│ 题型探究 【解析】 A　题干关键词为：wheelchair。根据选文中的“The House may present difficulties but the Visitors’ Centre, its exhibition, and the garden are accessible(可进入的)to wheelchair user.”可知：对于轮椅使用者来说，可能进入房子有些困难，但是游客中心，展览厅还有花园都可以进入。由此可以直接得出答案。 【规律技巧提炼】

　　在解这类题时，大家可以采取“题干定位法”，即“带着问题找答案”的方法。

　　模块３│ 题型探究 (2) 间接信息题 这类题目我们能够从文章中找到信息，但原文信息又不是解题所直接需要的，需要我们对原文信息进行合理地加工处理，根据信息作简单推理或鉴别。它是介于直接信息题和推理判断题之间的一种题型。 例　To you，the most important decision you’ll make is to choose the school that really fits you best—not the one that is the most 模块３│ 题型探究 competitive(有竞争力的)or the one has the best equipped rooms. ()The author thinks you should choose the college that is ________. A．well-equipped B．competitive C．suitable 　D．famous 模块３│ 题型探究 【解析】 C　从文中可以看出，作者认为选择学校的时候最重要的是学校要适合(fit)你，即选项C，而不是“装备 好的”、“有竞争力的”和“著名的”。 模块３│ 题型探究 (3)综合信息题

　　这类题目的信息不仅仅涉及文章的某一句话，还可能涉及文章的几句话，而且有时可能散落在文章的不同地方，因此要求考生把原文所提供的信息综合起来分析，而不能“断章取义”，也不能张冠李戴。 例　[2010·湖北]
