二、Imagine the situation.You are driving along a desert or on a mountain.You have no idea where you are.You passed the last house two hours ago.Then your car breaks down.It is night and it is cold.You have no mobile phone.What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you.This invention may be able to help you.It is a device(装置)which uses satellites(卫星)to find the user's position(位置).It can find your position to within 20 meters.A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver.It looks like a mobile phone.You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket.It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone.We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats.Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are.For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System.The first part is the receiver.You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc.The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth.The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates(计算)its position.The third part of the system is a network of ground stations.They are all over the world.They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile.They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精确的).There are also new uses for the GPS.Perhaps they will become like watches.Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.6.According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people __________.A.can't be lost in a new city B.can't find their way in different countries C.can learn about the culture of an unknown place D.can spend the least time getting to another place 7.We can learn from the passage that ____________.A.there are three parts to the GPS B.a GPS can't be put into a watch C.a GPS can help you start your car D.the GPS are becoming more and more expensive 8.The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “____________”.A.Receivers

阅读理解部分是任何一种英语考试中占分数最多的一个项目。可见,阅读理解这部分的成绩,是直接关系到学生是否能通过考试或取得优异成绩的关键。如何提高阅读理解水平,尤其是掌握阅读理解的应试技术,是学生非常关注的问题。
阅读理解中的文章,内容牵涉到两大类:一类是科技方面的,如有关医学、动植物、海洋、地质、遗传、语言、天文、空间技术等。另一类是社会方面的,如历史、文化、家庭、婚姻、教育、伦理、犯罪、娱乐、交通、住房、环境、能源等。体裁可多样化,包括记叙文、说明文、议论文等,但是从实际情况看,用作阅读理解的文章基本上以后面两种体裁为主,即载有一定信息量的说明文和有作者观点的议论文。说明文、议论文是对一些社会、自然、思维等现象和问题进行解释、阐述和论证,它们的特点是信息量大且比较复杂,逻辑性强,主要以抽象思维如概括、判断、推理等组成的。理解的障碍主要来自于句子的复杂结构和长句,科技、社会性的文章,说明文、议论文的体裁决定了句子的平均长度和复杂程度都高于其他一般的语言材料。
一、阅读理解常见的题型
1.主旨大意题
主要测试考生对文章的主题及中心思想的了解。
(1)The main idea of this passage is that______.(2)The passage is mainly about______.(3)The major point discussed in the passage is_____.(4)What has been discussed in the passage?(5)Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?(6)The best title for the passage might be_____.(7)What is the main topic of this passage?(8)The passage mainly tells us_____.2.词汇意思题
主要测试学生的词汇能力和句子结构的理解能力,尤其是测试他们根据上下文猜测语言片段的含义的能力。
(1)The word “.” in line(paragraph)×most probably means_____.
(2)In paragraph×,the word “.” refers to(stand for)_____.(3)The word “.” in paragraph×can be best replaced by_____.(4)“It”(“They”)in line×most probably refers to_____.3.细节掌握题
主要测试学生的掌握文章具体细节的能力,也就是说,除了文章大意外,学生是否掌握文章涉及的原因、结果、特点等细节。
(1)Which of the following is TRUE(or NOT TRUE)?(2)Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in paragraph ×?(3)According to the passage, all of the following are true EXCEPT that_____.(4)Which of the following may lead to(cause)______.4.推理判断题
主要测试学生能否对作者的态度、写作目的、文章的语气、文章的来源等进行合理的推理判断,通过表面文字,获得深层的理解。
(1)It can be inferred from the passage that_____.(2)From the passage we can infer(draw the conclusion)that.(3)The author writes this passage mainly to_____.(4)The author’s purpose in writing this passage is_____.要想提高阅读理解能力,仅了解阅读理解的考试要求和出题的基本形式是不够的,我们还要了解背景知识,阅读的过程就是与学生的语言水平和结构知识相互作用的过程,语言水平过低,当然不能理解文章内容,但是缺乏文章所涉及的有关背景知识,也无法迅速了解文章大意,现在有的学生知识结构单一,而阅读理解文章所涉及的内容和知识包罗万象,题材极为广泛,因此我们在平时要多读一些社会和科普方面的说明文和议论文,天文地理、政治经济,越是内容生疏的,越要广泛涉及,以弥补英语课文题材中留下的空白,增强自己的背景知识。实践证明:背景知识越丰富,阅读理解能力越强。我们在了解背景知识的同时,还要熟悉句子结构,学生感到考试中的阅读文章难,不仅仅在于对内容比较生疏,而且还在于对文章的语言,尤其是句子结构不习惯。因此,在平时我们要专门找一些长句、结构复杂的句子,细细分析,找出其规律和特点,这样,在考试中便不会碰到这种句子时显得束手无策了。此外,平时我们还要注重快速阅读的训练,考试要注意时间的分配,适当多花点时间做阅读理解题,因为阅读理解题分值相对较大。
二 为了做好阅读理解题,我们还应该掌握的阅读技巧
1.通篇略读法
顾名思义就是对全文通篇略读,舍弃无关紧要的细节,全力捕捉全文中心思想的阅读办法。通篇略读法有三个目的:(1)对文章有一个总的概括和印象,文章讲什么,讲的哪一方面的事;(2)了解文章的中心思想和作者的基本观点和立场;(3)记住文章的信息方位,如什么地方是作者的观点,什么地方是作者所举的例子,什么地方是作者分析的原因,以便再读时查找。这三个目的决定了在通篇略读中,较多注意的是文章中的主题句(主题句即各段的中心思想句,一般在段落的首尾处)、(关键词)等,而对具体的论述、细节、数字则快速略过。有了大概的中心思想,再去看问题,遇到大意、主题、标题等问题,应可以立即解答;如是细节问题,则可根据刚才的印象和知道信息的方位,立即找到必须再看一遍的地方。
2.照题查阅法
就是根据问题去找答案,也就是说,不必按顺序从头到尾的通读下去,而只是读与问题有关的段落或句子。一般说来,照题阅读法是在通篇略读之后,在对所提的问题下面几个选择不能作出决定时采用的。当然,在时间来不及的情况下,在不能先通篇略读的情况下,也可应用这种方法。
照题阅读法的步骤:(1)先读问题,一定搞清楚问的是什么;(2)根据问题提供的线索,回到文章中去,寻找和问题有关的地方;(3)找到问题有关的地方后,仔细阅读前后的句子;(4)再回到试题,比较问题下面的四个选择项,确定哪一个和文章中的信息是一致的。一般说来,照题阅读法对于细节题型和词汇型效果最好。
3.综合解题法
就是采取各种阅读方法和解题技巧既快又准确地找到答案。其步骤:
(1)运用通篇略读法,快速阅读全文快速阅读全文的目的有两个,一是了解文章的主题和大意;二是了解文章的信息分布和方位。在阅读时可以用铅笔把中心思想句划出,把 because / reasons这类表示原因理由叙述词,characteristics / benefits这类表示事物特点的信号词,for example / such as这类表示举例的信号词,以便后来需要查找时,可以很快地找到。当然,有时候文章显得特别难,读完第一段还不知道什么意思,此时可以先读问题,把几个问题快速读一下,知道这篇文章讲什么,讲了哪几个方面,然后再去读全文,这样就会显得比较容易。
(2)仔细阅读问题,明确问题是什么,相当于写作中的审题不看清题目,就会出现答非所问的错误,在这方面学生易犯三种错误:一是为了抢时间,不少学生跳过题目,直接去看四个选择,他们认为四个选择中只有一个是正确的,和原文意思一致,其他三个选择项是错误的,是文章中没有的,或和文章意思相反的。这个概念是错误的。在多数情况下,四个选择项在文章中都可能说过,和文章意思都一致,但对问题来说只有一个是正确的。二是粗心大意,没有看清问题,或看错了某些词,结果导致选择错误。三是有些问题故意用 almost / mainly / best等词来使问题的意思有所变化,如不在意这些词,就会对问题产生误解,从而导致错误选择。
(3)运用照题查阅法,寻找正确答案的根据
做题最忌讳的是凭空印象,一般说来都需要根据问题再读文章的过程,当然,这个再读,不是通读,而是有重点的查读。做题目,找答案,在某种意义上就好像办案抓坏人,要凭证据,而不是凭印象。读了一遍,就凭印象作选择,很容易出错。要对自己的选择答案有信心,就要根据问题或选择项提供的线索,在文章中找到问题和答案的地方仔细读一下,找到正确答案的根据,再凭这一根据回过头来选答案。可依据三种线索,找根据或证据:一是问题中的线索;二是选项中的线索;三是文章中的线索。
(4)运用大局观点,分析选项,确定正确答案
做题目,尤其是面对形式和内容极为相似的选择项,一定要有大局的观点,保持清醒的头脑。这里有两个建议:一是初步估计。不是所有的题目都是无懈可击的,因此在做题目前,先初步估计一下,估计哪一个选项最可能是答案,或就是答案,不是不可能的;二是汉语思维。许多老师要求学生在阅读时要养成英语思维的习惯,这没有错。但在阅读较难的文章,较复杂的句子时,遇到四个选项形式上非常相似,内容上非常接近,对英语还是一门学习的语言,而不是日常生活、思维的学生来说,要求他们试着用英语思维,有点强人所难,他们的思维往往掉进“英语世界”里出不来,在头脑中没有理解意思,一片空白。而这时如用汉语把较难的句子在头脑里翻译出来,往往一下子就抓住意思了。

初中英语阅读理解一篇
One evening a young woman walked on the beach.She turned to see the footsteps she had left in the sand,but they had already been washed away by the water.When she turned to continue her walk,She was surprised to see an old woman sitting by a fire.She walked up to the old woman and asked,“Where did you come from?I didn’t see you here a minute ago.”
Instead of answering her question,the old woman said,“Sit with me,my child.I have something to show you.”
As the young woman sat down beside the fire,the old woman handed her a book.She turned the pages of the book one by one and was amazed to discover they told the story of her whole life,from the early days of childhood to the present.But when she turned to the next page,she found it empty.And the rest of the pages in the book were all empty.“Does this mean my life ends tonight?”she asked.“No,my child.It means tonight your life begins.”
At that time the old woman took the book into her hands and began to tear(撕掉)each of the pages that had words out of the book.She then threw them into the fire until all that was left were empty pages.She handed the book of empty pages to the young woman.“You see,”she said,“just as the water washed away your footsteps in the sand,your past is forever gone.What you truly have is here and now.Each moment is the beginning of the rest of your life and you should live it to the fullest,because you will not live that moment a second time.As for your future,you are free to shape it as you wish,because it has not yet been written.”
