12.Have you ever taken a test that you thought you could have passed easily,only to make some silly mistakes that really hurt your grade?More than a few students have done that.And some seem to do it over and over again
There are several problem areas that can cause students to goof up or do poorly in a test that they could have passed.
Some students can become overconfident in their knowledge of the subject matter.They think they know the material better than they actually do.It is easy for students to misjudge their own knowledge,and when they realize that they don't know the material,it is too late.
What happens more often,though,is that some students feel they are smart enough to be able to guess their way through a test.So they don't bother studying the material.They are overconfident in their ability to figure things out.In either case,overconfidence can result in lower grades in tests.Does this apply to you?
Another thing that can happen is that students underestimate (低估) the difficulty of the test.They expect an easy test,but the teacher throws in a real tough test that they haven't prepared for.Sometimes the teacher may cover material in the test that students weren't expecting.That can happen,especially if you weren't paying attention in class.
Finally,there are students who don't feel that getting a good grade is important to them,so they don't bother to study or even try to do well.Such students may be trying to punish their parents,have a poor image(形象)of themselves,or are just plain foolish.Hopefully,you are not one of these students.

21.The writer believes that many studentsB.
A.are afraid of exams
B.make careless mistakes
C.hate homework
D.lack confidence
22.What does the underlined phrase"goof up"mean?C
A.Be overconfident.
B.Be nervous.
C.Make silly mistakes.
D.Make wrong choices.
23.According to the writer,who will be most unwilling to try his best in a test?A
A.Edward,dissatisfied with his parents.
B.John,expecting an easy test for him.
C.Dobby,believing he is the smartest in the class.
D.Peter,being overconfident about his ability.
24.What would be discussed in the paragraph that follows?D
A.The causes of overconfidence.
B.The causes of a poor self-image (自我形象).
C.Ways to prepare for a test.
D.Ways to avoid making careless mistakes in a test.

分析 文章讲述了几种学生在考试时容易犯的错误.这些错误使他们无法通过本能够通过的考试.

解答 21-24  BCAD
21.B 细节理解题.根据第一段"Have you ever taken a test that you thought you could have passed easily,only to make some silly mistakes that really hurt your grade?More than a few students have done that.And some seem to do it over and over again."可知许多学生会犯这种愚蠢的错误.故 B项正确.
22.C 词义猜测题.根据第一段More than a few students have done that可知许多学生会犯这些愚蠢的错误.第二段What happens more often,though,is that some students feel they are smart enough to be able to guess their way through a test."有很多问题可以导致学生在本能够通过的考试中犯些愚蠢的错误.".故 C项正确.
23.A 推理判断题.根据最后一段中的"Finally,there are students who don't feel that getting a good grade is important to them,so they don't bother to study or even try to do well.Such students may be trying to punish their parents,have a poor image of themselves,or are just plain foolish."可知好多学生故意考不好是为了惩罚父母.故 A项正确.
24.D  推理判断题.整篇文章讲的是"许多学生在本能够通过的考试中却犯一些愚蠢的错误,使考试无法通过.比如过于自信、低估考试难度、惩罚父母等"以及最后一段最后一句说"希望你不是这样的学生"可知作者的担心,故下文应该是在讲述避免考试中犯错误的方法.故 D项正确.

点评 一、速读全文,了解大意知主题.
  阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面.阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力.考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质.
二、看题干,带着问题读文章.
  首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等.其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位.此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率.
  三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题.
  在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义.要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全.推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等.
  四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎.
  猜词是应用英语的重要能力.它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇.我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义.
