  A good reader is one who can read beyond the lines, seeing ideas implied through the words, and one who can bridge the gap between the obvious and the suggested, thus obtaining much more information. Let's look at the following sentence: JOHN HENDERSON WAS DRIVING HOME LATE LAST NIGHT FROM AN EXHAUSTING BUSINESS TRIP. As you might have realized, this is the opening sentence of a story. It tells the reader whom the story is about--John Henderson, and when the event takes place--late one night. If we read carefully and thoughtfully we can also infer from this sentence that:

  1. John Henderson may be a businessman because he has just finished a “business trip”.

  2. John Henderson must be very tired because the trip is“exhausting”.

  3. John Henderson must be very eager to get home because he is driving “late”at night right after this exhausting(精疲力尽)trip.

  Making inferences while reading will always help us achieve a better comprehension. But we should keep in mind that inferences must be made with care and supported by evidence. In order to make reasonable inferences we should:

  1. Read and think beyond the printed words.

  2. Analyze the information given in the text.

  3. Determine the author's reason for his choice of words.

(1)According to the author, a good reader ________.

[  ]

A.can read between the lines

B.should have a large vocabulary

C.knows enough grammar rules

D.must have a good knowledge of the author

(2)From the quoted sentence, you know John Henderson was most likely ________.

[  ]

A.a seller
B.a man on business
C.a driver
D.a traveller

(3)From the quoted sentence, you know John Henderson had a(an) ________.

[  ]

A.tired trip
B.bored trip
C.boring trip
D.exhausting trip

(4)When the author asks us to make inferences while reading, he intends to say ________.

[  ]

A.make guesses
B.have imaginations
C.do translations
D.draw conclusions

(5)The best topic of the passage is ________.

[  ]

A.Reading skills
B.Try to be a good reader
C.Reading is important
D.Reading is thinking
答案:A;B;D;D;B
解析:

(1)文章开头阐明了作者的观点:“A good reader is one who can read beyond the linesseeing ideas implied through the words...”,后半句是对前半句的解释。

(2)文章选用了一个例句(大写句子),作者讲解这个例句时也推断出John Henderson或许是一个商人。

(3)通过文中作者对例句的理解可知,此处的exhausting相当于tiring

(4)题目中所说的“make inferences”表示“作出推论”,即得出一个结论,而非猜测、想象或翻译等。

(5)本文主要说明如何在阅读过程中进行推断,文章一开就说明如何才是一名好读者。
