考点 31 阅读理解应用文(重难题型)
应用文是最贴近日常生活的文体,它包括通知、广告、便条、申请书、个人简介、商品说明与介绍、
新闻报道等,形式多样,题材各异,如图示、表格等。英语《考试说明》对"读"的能力要求之一是:要
求考生读懂一般性话题的简短文字材料,例如公告、说明、广告以及书、报、杂志中的简短文章并能识别
不同文体的特征。研读近年全国各地的高考试题可以看出,应用文是高考阅读理解命题的重要体裁之一。
现简要介绍应用文的特点、类型和解题技巧。
一、应用文阅读试题的文体特点
应用文不同于其他文体的文章,其目的是为了向读者传输信息,措辞简洁明了,直截了当.一般说来,
应用文英语阅读试题具有以下特点:
1. 选材特点
信息量大,文句精炼,形式灵活,用最少的篇幅表达最大量的信息。
2. 内容特点
生活化,实用化,多样化,如产品宣传、服务介绍、通知、海报、启示、招生招聘等。
3. 形式特点
标题醒目,重点突出,条理清晰,常用粗体字或各类项目符号使文章的结构更鲜明。
4. 语言特点
人名、地名、专有名词多;生词多;缩略词、祈使句、省略句多;结构不完整。
5. 命题特点
主要考查考生提取信息和处理信息的能力,既注重特定细节的筛选、类比、综合,又注重推理判断题
的考查,题目设置相对较容易。
二、应用文的主要类型
应用文的类型主要有:同主题广告,混合型广告,规则、通知、咨询问答、注意事项等,指南,书评、
问卷调查、告示、参观须知、申请书、个人简介等。
三、应用文解题技巧点拨高考应用文阅读理解设题以细节理解题为主,因此,阅读这类文章时,应该在整体把握文章结构的前
提下,主要注意细节信息。细节题的题干都是相应原文的变形(如同义改写、词性转换等),因此要找到答
案一定要找到题干在原文中的出处,再把原文和选项相比较。
做题时,根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果。
同时,在阅读时也要特别注意文中以粗体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字,因为这很有可能是
文章的核心或某一部分内容的概括。具体答题策略如下:
1. 先题后文
先读试题,了解试题考点;明确目的,快速捕捉,获取信息。
2. 题干定向
根据题干关键词到文中定位答案范围,按照题目顺序依次而下:问题与材料相同→对号入座;问题与
原文相同→同义替换、归纳事实等。
3. 生词模糊
遇到生词;如与答题无关,直接跳过;涉及答题,则根据语境、构词法等猜词。
4. 信息补全
对于影响理解的省略句,可根据语境,将其补全。
总之,应用文类型的阅读文章一般说来比较易理解,文章类型以广告形式居多,设问根据文章的段落
秩序,多以细节事实理解为主,答案的寻找可以根据问题中的关键字顺藤摸瓜,辅以适当的推理判断。了
解了应用文的措辞和内容特点,我们在实践中总结出解答应用文试题的关键是:抓信息。
提示:应用文阅读题做完后,不可轻易改答案,要相信第一感觉。因为第一次解题时思路最清晰,假
如没十分把握,以不改为好,防止弄巧成拙。
全国高考英语考试说明明确指出,要求考生读懂一般性话题的简短文字材料,例如公告、说明、广告
以及书、报、杂志中的简短文章,这说明了应用文文体在高考英语中的重要性。这个特点在历年高考试题
中有明显的印证,不管是全国高考卷,还是省区高考卷中基本每年都涉及应用文文体的考查,这充分体现
了"为用而学,学以致用"的新课程理念。因此,考生很有必要认真研读阅读理解中应用文的特征和命题
特点,并掌握一定的解题方法。本文拟结合近年高考英语全国卷阅读理解中所涉及的应用文文体,帮助考
生提高阅读理解的解题能力。
应用文是在日常工作和生活中使用的文体,通常以实用性为目的、以真实性为基础、以时效性为根本、
以规范性为准则。该文体一般可分为两大类:一类是说明性应用文,包括广告、启事、海报、守则、公告、
指南、个人简历、备忘录、摘要等;另一类是叙述性应用文,如书信、日记、便条、报告、请帖等。目的都是向读者传输信息。高考试题主要涉及宣传广告、公告类应用文,偶尔也会有书信类文章出现。从近三
年高考全国卷阅读理解中应用文的话题分布情况可知,前一类是应用文命题的首选题材,其中包括广告、
海报和指南等。
在高考英语阅读理解中应用文体的考查主要有如下几个特点:
1. 就文体特点而言,应用文主要是为了向读者传递信息,措辞简洁明了,一般来说,和所述问题无关的文
字不会出现。例如很多文章没有标题,甚至通篇没有一个完整的句子,而是用词、数字、缩写、短语等
来替代。
2. 就选材特点来说,信息量大,文句精练,形式灵活,用最小的篇幅表述最大量的信息。其中书信,招
聘和商品销售等广告,交通运输时刻表,日记等的比例较大。其内容特点表现为:生活化,实用化,多
样化。
3. 就形式特点而言,标题醒目,重点突出,条理清晰,常用粗体字或各类项目符号使文章结构更鲜明。
4. 就语言特点来说,文章充斥大量冗长而生僻的专有名词,如人名、地名、机构名、组织名、书籍名、作
品名等等,而且没有汉语注释。缩略词、祈使句、省略句多。
5. 在行文方式方面,应用文的每种文体都有固定的格式。叙述性应用文采用一般记叙文的写作方法,无特
别之处;说明性应用文的行文呈排列式,即以小标题为单位逐一下行排列。
6. 就命题特点来说,高考英语应用文的设问一般是按照文章段落的顺序依次设置,主要考查考生提取信息
和处理信息的能力,既考查对特定细节的选取、排除、类比、综合,又注重推理判断题的考查,题目设
置相对容易。具体讲来主要有四大类:(1)细节理解题,即要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节
进行理解。这一题型常见的命题方式有事实认定题、图形辨认题、数字运算题等。(2)推理判断题。这类
题主要考查考生根据文章的字面意思,通过分析语篇的逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,
理解文章的寓意等。推理判断题属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题。(3)主旨大意题。该类题主要考查
考生对所读材料中心思想的概括.其考查形式有很多,如概括标题、主题、中心思想等。(4)词义猜测题,
即要求考生根据一定的上下文猜测生词的词义。
广告类阅读题的五大特点
1. 材料特点:大家知道,刊登广告是要钱的,为了节省费用,人们在拟写广告时往往都希望用最少的
篇幅表现最大量的信息,这就决定了广告类材料通常具有以下特点:信息量大,用词简练,形式灵活。
2. 内容特点:综观近几年的高考英语阅读理解题,其中广告类阅读题内容主要涉及的是与人们生活息
息相关的信息,如产品宣传、服务介绍、招生招聘等。
3. 形式特点:做广告的主要目的就是要让受众了解并记住广告的内容,并为广告上所刊登的内容(产品或服务等)买单。为了达到这一目的,人们在设计广告时往往会做到:标题醒目,重点突出,条理清楚。
4. 用词特点:广告类阅读材料的用词有"三多"特点:一是人名、地名、专有名词多;二是生词多;
三是缩略词、省略句多。
5. 命题特点:广告类阅读是近几年高考英语阅读理解最常考的题材,在阅读理解的选材中占有很大的
比重。命题者的目的是要考查考生提取信息和处理信息的能力,所以命题的题型多是以获取信息为主的细
节理解题。
命题趋势
1. 考点趋势:今后对语篇领悟能力的检测仍是高考的重点和基本点,同时还需关注对主旨大意题和文
章结构题的考查。
2. 理解层次趋势:表层意义理解题减少,深层含义理解题增多。考查难度有所增加,由简单寻找信息
向多层次细节推理的趋势比较明显。
3. 信息量和词汇量:阅读理解材料信息浓缩,词汇总量减少,但对词汇量的考查在加大,非考纲词汇
有所增加(主要为词根加上前、后缀或有词义转化的词)。旨在引导学生掌握词汇的合成、派生和转化,让
考生能通过上下文或构词法来理解词汇的含义。《考试说明》中"根据上下文推断单词和短语的含义"这
一新要求预示对能力要求有所提高。
4. 句子的难度:长句增多,句子难度加大。复合句、省略句、倒装句和插入语等语言现象普遍。
5. 体裁和题材:继续体现体裁和题材多样化,并彰显英语国家语言与文化特点,强化文化意识的渗透。
题材涉猎广泛,体现"语言是文化的载体"这一理念。

Passage 4
(2022·北京东城·模拟预测)Side hustles for college students deliver spending money while still offering
the flexibility that a full class schedule requires.
Take class notes
One side hustle for college students involves taking notes in class and selling them.
Three sites — StudySoup, NexusNotes and Stuvia — offer attractive pay for uploading and selling class notes
to other students at your university. Each has its own pay formula. But you usually get a bonus when someone signs
up to get access to your notes, plus a payment for each set of notes that sell. Students say they can earn $250 to
$500 per class, per semester. Because this job requires taking great class notes, you’re likely to do better in school.
Become a tutor
Many younger students have fallen behind academically as they struggled with distance learning. That opens
an opportunity for those who have mastered a subject, from high school algebra to Spanish, to teach that subject to
others. A number of tutoring platforms allow you to sign up and tutor online or in person.
Some of the best: Wyzant, Varsity Tutors, and, for those who want to teach music, LessonFace.
Be a survey taker
The best option in this category is a site called Prolific, which helps researchers find pre-screened survey
participants. What makes this site better than most is that it asks you to answer qualifying questions — age, income,
family status, etc. — in advance. Then, the site sends you only the surveys that you’re qualified to take. You’re
given an estimate of the time it will require to take each survey and how much it pays. You decide whether it’s
worth your time.
Charge scooters
Big campuses are often littered with electric scooters and bikes that can be unlocked and ridden aroundcampus. Riders can drop the scooters just about anywhere. So scooter companies, such as Bird and Lime, enlist
“chargers” and “juicers” to pick them up, charge them overnight and return them to a designated area early the next
morning.
If you have a late class, there are two benefits to signing up to charge. First, you earn between $5 and $20 for
each scooter you return fully charged. You also get to ride the scooters home for free, which isn’t a bad way to get
back to your dorm.
10.Which site allows one to get paid by uploading their class notes?
A.Prolific. B.LessonFace. C.Wyzant. D.StudySoup.
11.What may make Charge scooters attractive?
A.It pays riders for charging scooters.
B.It provides more benefits for students.
C.It offers a means of free transportation.
D.It helps solve litter problem on campus.
12.The passage mainly introduces ________.
A.methods to do better in school
B.job options for college students
C.after-class activities for students
D.ways to meet a full class schedule
Passage 5
(2022·重庆一中模拟预测)Monthly subscription (订阅) educational boxes for students can be a great
way to develop an interest in a particular subject. If you want to learn something at home while having fun, you can
have educational boxes delivered monthly straight to your house.

TY host of a popular science education program on News for Kids. Projects focus on STEM—science, technology,
engineering, and math. Examples of projects include exploring lava(岩浆)science, the sound waves, and
physical laws.
Finders Seekers Boxes
After receiving a Finders Seekers box, you’ll explore characters of a new city and culture every month while
solving puzzles. Think of Finders Seekers as an escape room challenge that takes place in your living room. Clues
and online research tools are available to help in case you get stuck solving the mystery. Each puzzle takesapproximately two to four hours to complete.
Creation Boxes
Creation teaches students electronics, digital tips and high-level problem-solving. Each box teaches a lesson
and is progressively more challenging. A sampling of the projects includes a mood lamp, an electronic memory
game, and a distance detector using an ultrasonic sensor(超声传感器).
Kiwi Doodle Boxes
Kiwi Doodle Boxes are among the most popular boxes on the market. They feature a variety of themes
customized to students aged from 8 to 18. Doodle focuses on art and design with projects such as a felt succulent
(肉质植物)garden, a faux(人造的)leather sample set, and handmade soap. Doodle projects introduce

call of the wild. Urban Wild by Helen Rook is out in February and full of positive suggestions to help you discover

removed from the old ways and cycles.

Finding an exercise that you enjoy—one that you want to stick to because it’s so much fun—is a surefire wayto have you bounding into the year. Take a stroll with 52 Ways To Walk. Annabel Streets digs into the science and
romanticism of walking and explores the good things that can happen with this one small act. And the classic
Running Like A Girl is still a hugely inspiring book that will make you want to pull your sports shoes on before
you’ve finished chapter two.
To find your creativity
From its tiniest details to its most dramatic events, your story is a sacred gift. But how do you find and tell
that story? Nikesh Shukla’s new book Your Story Matters is out on March 17 and it’s full of writing inspiration to

The Biggest Stadiums in the World
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the
Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world's best-known stadium and continues to inform
contemporary design. Rome's Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50, 000 people.
However, that was small fry compared with the city's Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,
000 people.
These days, safety regulations—not to mention the modern sports fan's desire for a good view and a
comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities (容量)slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have
a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which
ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium
websites.
All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.
●Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang, D.P.R. Korea. Capacity: 150, 000. Opened: May 1,
1989.
●Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S. Capacity: 107, 601. Opened: October 1, 1927.

My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列)of lifestyle books.
Here she picks her top reads.
Matilda
Roald Dahl
I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciationfor his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel me parents and the bossy headmisres,Miss
Trunchbull,are equally fumy and frightening,but they're also aspirational.
After Dark
Haruki Murakami
It’s about two sisters-Eri,a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping,and Mari, a young student . In
trying to connect to her sister. Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse ”night people” who are
hiding secrets.
Gone Girl
Gillian Fynn
There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did but the horror story is
brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit
and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable
The Stand
Stephen King
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes
out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those let. Randall Flagg is one
of the scariest characters ever.
