解答 CDDBD
53 C 细节理解题 根据第一段Beancurd used to be considered a favorite of the poor because it is inexpensive.可知,因豆腐价格低廉,故为穷人所喜欢,故答案为C.
54 D.细节理解题.此题难度较小.从文中第一段末句Beans have high yields (产量) every year with their short growing period and suitability for various soil both dry and wet可知大豆既可以在干旱的土壤中生长,也可以在湿润的土壤中生长,但要理解出"suitability( 适宜 )"之意,否则会增加选择的难度.
55 D 细节理解题 从文中第一段第一句If there is something that appears most frequently on Chinese dining tables,it is doufu-beancurd.可知豆腐是普通家庭餐桌上经常见到的食品,故答案为D.
56 B 细节理解题 根据第二段中的He had a dream of finding the pill for longevity (长寿).He traveled all over the country and found soybeans,可知他周游列国是为了寻找一些能够使人活的长寿的东西,故答案为B.
57 D 时间推测题.本文只提及一个时间段 (206BC-220AD),但从历史上我们知道刘安生活在西汉年间,所以距今已 2,000 多年.故答案选D.
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.
