　　阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 重视篇章结构 篇章结构题从其考查内容而言，可分为三种：考查考生对整个文章结构的组织能力；考查考生对后文内容的预测能力；考查考生对文章写作手法、修辞手段的鉴赏能力。 一、篇章结构主要的设题方式常有： 1．How is the passage organized? 2．Which of the following best shows the structure/organization of the passage? 3．What will the author most probably talk about next? 4．The author develops the passage mainly by

　　[2011·重庆卷](节选) Getting rid of dirt，in the opinion of most people，is a good thing. However，there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 In the early 16th century，people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538，the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry Ⅳ，King of France，was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath，the king ordered that，to avoid the attack of disease，the nobleman should not go out. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long－lived，dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking，cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet，it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ.Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea：clothes need to be whiter than white，cloths ever softer，surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt，however，gone too far? 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first－time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt，which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary，Mary Ruebush，an American immunologist (免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 How does the passage mainly develop? A．By providing examples. B．By making comparisons. C．By following the order of time. D．By following the order of importance. 【点睛】 C　本题考查文章写作手法。通读全文可知，贯穿文章的主要线索是时间。因此该文是按照时间顺序来组织的，故选择C项。 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 【活学活用】 The Celebration Experiment

　　In the 1960s, Walt Disney pictured in the mind a future Utopian city with underground roads and a climate－controlled round roof. The real community of Celebration, Florida, built in 1999, applies the social and environmental goals of both Disney and the New Urbanism movement. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 Disney and the New Urbanism have imagined communities that promote social and local communication. Celebration has a central Market Street district to reduce traffic and encourage social contacts. The idea is that if the downtown area is neatly and closely ranked, people will walk and meet their neighbors. Downtown events like art festivals also bring citizens together. Narrow, tree－lined streets are “traffic calm”—with slower speed limits—to encourage bicycling and walking. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 Moreover, housing in Celebration includes both single－ and multi－family houses that encourages socialization. Apartment buildings are located close to downtown, and houses are built close together with small yards. They feature entrance halls to encourage citizens to socialize. “Many aspects of that kind of design are really aimed at maximizing social communication between citizens, not just on the streets but also in community institutions that are very much a part of public life there，” says Andrew Ross, a New York University professor who lived in Celebration for one year. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 Utopian communities such as Celebration are also designed with environmental protection in mind. The town itself is built on 4,900 acres surrounded by a 4,700 acre protected

　　greenbelt. The greenbelt parks, and common areas accommodate native wildlife and animals. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 High－rise office and apartment buildings provide close office and living space in a small geographic area in order to reduce urban sprawl, the spread of today's cities onto nature areas. Buildings also minimize environmental influence by using cooling and electric systems with insulated(绝缘的；隔热的)glass, cooling towers, and energy－saving lamps. “The town more or less borrows very heavily from New Urbanist principles…to create environmentally friendly alternatives to sprawl and to create communities around people rather than vehicles，” Ross said. 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?

　　CP: Central Point　P: Point　SP: Sub－point(次要点)　C: Conclusion 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 [解析] B　本文采用总分总的方式，阐述了迪士尼和新城市主义运动的社会目标和环境目标，并讲述实现这两个目标所采取的一些具体做法。文章第一段讲述社区Celebration的建立，并提出了迪士尼和新城市主义运动的社会目标和环境目标；第二段到第四段分别讲述了社区中人与人之间的交流；第五、六段从环境保护方面讲述了城市的发展，最后一段进行总结。故B项正确。 阅读写作(二十四) │ 重视篇章结构 【词语辨析】 empty, vacant与hollow (1) empty: 意思是“里面没有东西，一无所有”，具有“空无一物”的隐含意义，它可以用来描绘box，vessel，cupboard，bag，purse，room，house，street，stomach，head 等词。
