　　三、阅读理解

　　专题训练（三）

　　理解作者的观点、意图及态度（2）

　　◆技巧点拨

　　要正确理解作者的观点、写作意图和对某事的态度，关键是在解题时不要加进自己的观点，也不要把社会上对某个问题的普遍看法或观点强加给作者，特别是不要误选符合考生自己看法的选项。

　　◆活学活用

　　阅读下列短文，按要求完成读写任务。

　　I was born and raised in France into this way of life:French women don,t get fat.There is a very good reason for that.Among the French middle and professional classes，it is totally unacceptable for a woman to be fat.Little girls，from a very young age，learn not to eat too much.It is mainly a class thing.When I read that “French woman love to shop and prepare food”，I laugh.Many of us who work and have a family would rather put our feet up with a good book.To describe France as the country of slender women is a lie.A quick trip to Calais or any town of the industrial north is guaranteed to be an eyeopener.

　　Yes，at 44，I am still amazingly slim.This is hardly surprising; apart from the time when I was pregnant，I think I have been underweight for most of my life.There is no glory in this，since the truth must be said:I eat very little，not out of force，but mostly out of habit.

　　Yes，I like shop and cook like a traditional Frenchwoman，but I don，t think this is something you can easily pass on to British women.I tend to go to local shops every day and this is not something people are used to doing here，mainly because it takes a lot of time.I can afford to do so，since I work only on a part-time basis.

　　Of course，I still enjoy a good meal at a(French)restaurant，and I will have a glass of wine at dinner，but only one glass，since drinking other than one with food is a social taboo for women in France.To be seen drunk for a woman is a social embarrassment from which she is not likely to recover.

　　Dear British friends，do not believe that patronizing myth about French women.The thing is that many of us French women are probably unaware of how little we eat，simply because it has become second nature.
