《考点•题型 •技巧》
考向分析
从命题形式上看，常见的有细节理解、词义猜测、主旨大意、推理判断、作者意图等题
型。除了推论或词义辨识题，记叙文命题的顺序一般都会按照文章的脉络和故事发展的顺
序层层推进，否则就会觉得别扭，逻辑不通。同时，记叙文需要事件的发展过程作支撑，
一半以上的题目都会用来检测考生对故事的了解，因此，我们必须弄明白整件事情的发展
脉络。而其余像主旨大意、作者意图之类的题目，则取决于文章的落句，集中考查对作者
所发的感触的理解。总之，细节题是记叙文命题的主流题型。而寓意之类的题则是高一层
次的题，有一定的难度和区分度，它们是拉开距离的题，答对了这些题，你才有可能成功
地跻身高分之列。综上所述，记叙文的应对策略即：不漏细节，奠定基础；把准寓意，方
能成功。
考点导航
记叙文常见的命题类型如下：
1.主旨大意题
文章主旨给出的四种形式:文首,文中,文尾,没有明确主旨,需总结。虽然作者表达主题
思想的方式不同，但命题常用的提问方式有以下几种：
What’s the main idea/subject/topic of the passage?
The main idea of the passage is…
The passage is mainly about_____.
Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?
The best title for the passage is/ might be____.
The author’s main purpose of writing this passage is____.
做题要领：文章主旨通常会出现在文首,文中或文尾，因此寻找主题句或主题段往往
是做好此类题的键。但当文中没有直接出现主题句，应对文章意思全面理解后归纳概括

From the passage, we can infer that the word”…”is___.
“…” can be best replaced by___.
What does the author probably mean by”…”?

做此类题时，应在文中找线索或信息词。根据上下文判断新词汇在特定句中确切意思。
根据周围熟悉的词及语义判断新单词之意，有时还需依靠构词法。
4.推断题
以原文内容为前提,透过现象看本质即透过文章表面文字信息推测文章隐含意思。根据
作者的观点理论客观地对文中未明显说明的现象或事例给予合理的逻辑推断，做出一定解
释。

学科网（北京）股份有限公司5. 观点态度题
回答这类问题应从篇章的体裁入手.一般来说,在说明文中作者的态度是客观的或中立的;
在议论文中,作者的态度才会显得多种多样. 可以根据阐述主题或有关主题的相关语句或词
语确定作者的态度。
常见的态度词语有:positive/support/approval(赞同的/optimisticcritical/negative/tolerant/
disappointed/pessimistic(悲观的) /indifferent(冷淡的)/doubtfulNeutral(中立的）/objective(客观
的）
这类考题常见的提问方式有以下几种:
What’s the author’s/writer’s attitude to…?
The author thinks/suggests/believes that___.
How does the author feel about…?
Which of the following will the author agree / disagree with?
Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude towards…?
记叙文讲述的是发生在当前或过去或将来事情的经过。简而言之，记叙文就是讲故
事，包括人物或故事情节。常见的记叙文根据其用途可分为文学记叙文和说明记叙文：文
学记叙文以虚构为主，如趣闻逸事、传说、寓言、传奇故事、短篇小说、科幻小说等；说
明记叙文以事实为依据，包括历史、传记、新闻报道、日记等。无论哪一种记叙文作者都
要交代何人何时何地为什么、怎么样、干了何事等等，这也就是我们常说的“5Ws and
1H”。这是我们在阅读记叙文时要首先了解的，接着按照线索弄清事情的来龙去脉，就能
理解整个故事。
特别值得注意的是：记叙文的叙事顺序有顺叙和倒叙两种，有时候作者为了吸引读者会
采用倒叙的方法，即不按照事情发展的先后顺序来叙述，而是从最重要、最能引人入胜的
事件开始，然后再回过头来追叙故事的开端和经过。阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理
解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后位置。
另外，讲故事必定有其目的：或证明某一理论，或阐明某一概念，或赞美某种美德，
或谴责某种罪恶等等。我们在阅读时要通过作者的重要细节描写联系故事情节去领会作者

学科网（北京）股份有限公司的意图，对作者重墨泼就的细节描写要重点关注。 概括起来一句话：读记叙文的关键是抓
情节。 抓住了故事情节，就理解了文章的脉络，其他的就迎刃而解了。
要解答好记叙文阅读理解题，就应该有一套针对性强的方法和技巧。下面是我们在阅读
教学中积累下来的一点心得体会，希望能对大家有所帮助。
1.关注细节
记叙文中有大量的事件发展过程中的细节，包括记叙文的5W（what, who, when, where,
why）要素。因此我们作答细节题的时候，就没有那么复杂，一般只需要由前到后，从上
到下，一题一题地做就可以了。
2.注重联系
在做题过程中，我们大都不能在文中找到与题干一字不差的词语或句子。这时我们需要
认真研究问题，抓住题干中的关键词语，然后到文中准确地找到与之相关的语句，或是疑
似语句的位置，接着去左顾，或右盼，在前句或后句寻找线索。
3.读懂表象
如前所述，主旨大意题或推理判断、作者意图题等实际上是同一类型的问题，或者说是
可用同种方法解答的题型。在解答此类题目的时候，不可被题干的表象所迷惑，要像剥洋
葱一样，一层一层地剥；在四个可选项中，一个一个地去证实，去排除。特别是解答推论
或暗指类的题目，比如“What can be inferred from …?”或是What does the author imply
in…?”之类的题目，文中所陈述的往往不是答案。我们要在文前文后去查找，在字里行间
里去寻觅。有时还少不了借助自己的生活经验和常理来体会这言外之意。
4.挖掘意义
每年的高考阅读题中，特别是记叙文的阅读题，都会出现一至两道词义猜测题。而这些
词汇往往是你素昧平生的，或者和你有点头之交，在文中却另有新意的，总之，猜的是那
些在高考词汇表要求之外的词汇。小小的一个词，一个短语，考核的不是你的语法的熟练
程度，也不是你的记忆力，而是你对文章通篇或者一个段落的整体把握和变通能力。

学科网（北京）股份有限公司Compassion is a desire within us to help others．With effort, we can translate compassion
into action．An experience last weekend showed me this is true．I work part-time in a
supermarket across from a building for the elderly．These old people are our main customers, and
it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness．But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared
to teach me a valuable lesson．This untidy man walked up to my register(收款机) with a box of
biscuits．He said he was out of cash(现金), had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his
cupboards．He asked if we could let him have the food on trust．He promised to repay me the
next day．
I couldn’t help staring at him．I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years
before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way．I had a hurt in my heart for this kind
of human soul, all alone in the world．I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me
to do so．I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job．
Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up．If anything, he looked more
pitiable．“Charge it to me,” was all he said．
What I had been feeling was pity．Pity is soft and safe and easy．Compassion, on the other
hand, is caring in action．I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either．
Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself．I reached into my pocket because
these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

I never knew anyone who’d grown up in Jackson without being afraid of Mrs. Calloway our
librarian. She ran Jackson’s Carnegie Library absolutely by herself. SILENCE in big black letters was

学科网（北京）股份有限公司back home to change your clothes. I was willing；I would do anything to read.
My mother was not afraid of Mrs. Calloway. She wished me to have my own library card to
check out books for myself, She took me in to introduce me. “Eudora is nine years old and has my
permission to read any book she wants from the shelves, children or adults,” Mother said.
Mrs. Calloway made her own rules about books. You could not take back a book to the
library on the same day you`d taken it out；it made no difference to her that you’d read every
word in it and needed another to start. You could take out two books at a time and two only. So
two by two, I read library books as fast as I could go, rushing them home in the basket of my
bicycle. From the minute I reached our house, I started to read. I knew this was extreme
happiness, knew it at the time.
My mother shared this feeling of mine. Now, I think of her as reading so much of the time
while doing something else. I remember her reading a magazine while taking the part of the Wolf
in a game of "Little Red Riding Hood" with my brother's two daughters. She'd just look up at the

It was the early morning of August 5, 1888, and her husband was still sleeping. She left a
note for her husband on the table, saying that she and their two sons had already left to visit
Pforzheim, Germany, 90 kilometers away. She purposely didn’t mention her means of
transportation. It wasn’t until Carl Benz checked the workshop in his factory that he realized his
family hadn’t taken the train. His new invention was gone.
Bertha had just committed the world’s first car theft. Her husband was a brilliant engineer

学科网（北京）股份有限公司who had designed the world’s first automobile in 1885. However, without sharp business mind, his
product wasn’t going anywhere. Bertha understood what every modern business knows: marketing
a product requires different skills than designing one. To provide a proof that the vehicle was
reliable and could also master long-distance routes, she intended to drive with the motor from
Mannheim to Pforzheim to show what it could do.
Once the three hit the road, they had to conquer novel problems. At 2.5 horsepower, they
could not climb steep slopes without pushing it from behind. Going downhill, the car burnt out the
brake shoes. Bertha stopped off at a cobbler and asked him to equip the brake shoes with a leather
lining. In so doing, Bertha Benz became the inventor of brake lining. The fuel amount was also
underestimated. Bertha made her first fuel purchase at the Stadtapotheke, where the store still
proudly displays a sign of being the first gas station in the world.
Following the “first shock”, as written in his memoirs, Carl felt an inner pride in his wife’s
daring “test drive”. And sales soon stepped up with the spread of Bertha’s daring trip. Today,
drivers can still experience this part of Mercedes-Benz success story along the Bertha Benz
Memorial Route between Mannheim and Pforzheim, just as the first woman driver did.

When their daughter Morey started kindergarten, the Belanger family were worried because
their 6-year-old daughter was deaf. Rather than send her to a special school for deaf children,
Morey's parents decided to give her a traditional school experience and send her to Dayton
Consolidated School.
They worried if their daughter would be able to make friends. They also had concerns as to
how her classmates would treat her and whether her teachers would be able to help her learn
effectively(有效地). But then the school had a response they never expected — teaching all their
students and staff sign language. That way, everyone could communicate with Morey on a
personal level.
"I absolutely feel like it makes her feel welcomed," said Morey's mom. "I think all the kids
feel excited that they know another language and I think they think it's fun. It makes me happy to
see her supported, loved and accepted. Morey is excited to go to school every day. She's made
really good friendships. "
Not only did they learn sign language，but they also put up sign language posters in the halls
and equipped a special hearing system. Additionally, they provided extra training so that teachers
could become more familiar with the language. “Morey, without even knowing it, has taught us so
much," says headmaster Kimberly Sampietro. "She's brought a culture to our system that we didn't
have before. Morey helped the whole class to learn the alphabet. The kids look up to her, they
want her around, and they want to partner with her. ”
6、
Morey's hearing loss is a result of a condition that's so rare that it's never been named.
However, thanks to the hard work and goodwill of her classmates and teachers, she can
communicate with them on her terms.
9. What concerned the Belangers when Morey started kindergarten?
A. That they would have to separate from her.

A campaign （活动）is being launched to encourage children to give up 30 minutes of
screen time a day to head for the great outdoors.
The newly formed Wild Network — a cooperation of nearly 400 organisations --- is trying to
attract teenagers away from television and computer screen and into fields, woods and parks.
Organisers say that it is the UK's biggest ever campaign to reconnect children with nature and
outdoor play, and that it could help improve fitness, mental（精神的）health and general well
being. A documentary film, Project Wild Thing, will announce the launch at more than 50
cinemas across the UK from Friday. It looks at the increasingly weak link between children and
nature.
Andy Simpson, chairman of the Wild Network, said: "The sad truth is that kids have lost
touch with nature. Time spent outdoors is down, activity areas and levels are falling strongly and
the ability to identify common species （物种）has been lost."
Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include camping or racing and observing

politicians on how government can do more to get children muddy （沾满泥污的）and bright¬-
eyed.
This is not the first time the message of less screen, more play has been brought up.
Children in the 1980s were asked to do the same by the BBC TV series Why Don't You, which
somewhat confusingly called on its viewers to "switch off your TV set, and do something less
boring instead".
5. The purpose of the campaign is to call on kids____________.

The bell for lunch rang at Glendale Primary School. However, instead of heading to the
canteen like all the other children did, Jonah, a new student at the school, went to the library.
Other than the noise of the air-conditioner, the library was quiet and there was barely a soul in
sight. Far in a corner, he spotted Mrs Lim, the librarian, who was too busy shelving some books to
pay any attention to him. The library was near to the canteen. Jonah could hear children laughing
and chatting. He wished he was outside playing with some friends but he did not let this bother

Suddenly, Jonah heard a sound in the corner. He looked around and saw a pair of eyes
looking at him from behind, the bookshelves. Jonah turned back, eyes as wide as saucers (茶碟).
“Oh dear!” he whispered. He peeked (窥视) over his shoulder again and saw a smaller boy
walking towards him.
The boy pulled out the chair next to Jonah and sat down. “I’m Henry. Why are you reading
here when you could be playing with your friends instead?” asked he. “Uh...” Jonah looked
around the library, avoiding Henry’s gaze (注视). He did not want Henry to know the real reason
why he was in the library. What would Henry think of him if he knew Jonah did not have any
friends? It would make Jonah feel more uncomfortable.
As Jonah turned the page, he realized Henry was still sitting there, watching him steadily.
“I know how you feel. Just say hello to someone today,” Henry encouraged Jonah. “I promise
they’ll respond. Once you’ve made the first move, it just gets easier.”
Jonah appreciated the advice and thanked him before making his way out of the library. In
the hallway outside the library, a boy from Jonah’s class was crouched on the floor, picking up
pens and pencils that had dropped out of his pencil case. Jonah remembered what Henry had
advised him to do.
“Hello, I’m Jonah. Let me help you,” he offered.
The boy looked up at him. “Thank you! My name is Ruben.”
Victory at last, Jonah thought, feeling proud of himself.
13. What can we know from the text?
A. The thought of playing outside bothered Jonah.
B. The library was not crowded at lunchtime.
C. The librarian was annoyed by the noise outside.
D. Jonah had had lunch before going to the library.

The signs appeared practically overnight. They’d been planted everywhere—in front of
homes, along sidewalks, around the local high school. Each featured just a few uplifting words in
simple black type: “Don’t Give Up,” “You Are Worthy of Love,” “Your Mistakes Do Not Define
You.” The high school in Newberg, Oregon, had lost four students and three former graduates to
kill themselves that year, so the town of 25, 000 instantly understood the messages.
Amy Wolff had done so, in part, because she’d lost her own teenage brother in an accident
about 20 years earlier. It was compassion (同情) for compassion’s sake.
Yet as Wolff saw the deep emotion her sign inspired in her neighbors, she decided to step
forward to share her message publicly. Instantly, her inbox was flooded with requests for more
signs. Since then, the Don’t Give Up Movement has spread from Newberg to the hearts and yards
of people in every state. Wolff charges only the cost of materials and shipping. “It’s a terrible
business decision if we wanted to function like a business,” she says.
Chrisanne Moger commented on one of the movement’s posts about the need for one
particular sign, “We’re All in This Together.” She thought it would really speak to a world huddling
together under the cloud of COVID-19. Wolff agreed, and she received 750 orders within a week
of its creation. A mother in Colorado, unable to travel during the quarantine (隔离), contacted
the organization after her stepson’s sudden death. “I saw one of your signs recently and it was a
touching message from above to hang on.” she wrote.

The bell rang. Jada sighed, slowly moved from the lockers where she had been leaning, and
headed down the hall to her chemistry class. Honors Chemistry! Jada couldn't believe that her
mom was making her take the class because Jada's counselor had said that she had real talent in
