第2 讲 推理判断题
推理判断是指在理解原文字面意思的基础上,通过对语篇逻辑关系的分析
和细节的推敲,作出一定的判断和推理,从而理解文章的深层含义的过程。推
理判断题主要考查考生分析上下文逻辑关系的能力以及逻辑推理能力。题目所
涉及的内容可能是某几句话,要求考生在理解原文意思的基础上,对文章字面
信息进行分析、挖掘、逻辑推理,从而揭示其深层含义。纵观近几年高考真
题,细节推断、观点态度、写作意图为高频考点,而推断读者对象、语篇出
处、后续内容、文章体裁、写作手法和文章结构等为低频考点。
考点1 细节推断题
●辨明题类
细节推断题要求考生根据语篇内容,就某具体细节进行推断,如时间、地点、
人物关系、人物身份、事件等。一般可根据短文提供的信息,或者借助生活常
识进行推理判断。一般题干中经常会出现六个动词:infer(推断),indicate(象
征,暗示),imply(暗示),suggest(暗示),conclude(得出结论,推断出)和
assume(假定,设想)。
该类型的命题方式常常以下列形式呈现:
(1)It can be inferred/concluded from the text that .
(2)What can we infer/learn from...?
(3)We can learn from the passage that .
(4)The passage/story...indicates/suggests/implies that .
●技法点拨
第一步:定位关键细节——根据题干提供的信息,抓住某一段话的关键信息,
即推理的依据;
第二步:正确理解推断——对原文中的信息细读理解其字面意义,然后结合语
境,在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的分析、推理、判断,利用逆向思维和
正向推理,从而推断出这句话所隐含的深层含义。
【特别提醒】
(1)如果某个选项是文章中的一个细节内容,则不能作为推理的结论。
(2)切勿把脱离原文的个人看法、主观臆断作为答案。

Is comprehension the same whether a person reads a text onscreen or on paper?And
are listening to and viewing content as effective as reading the written word when
covering the same material?The answers to both questions are often “no”.The
reasons relate to a variety of factors, including reduced concentration, an
entertainment mindset (心态) and a tendency to multitask while consuming digital
content.
When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more
successful when it's on paper than onscreen.A large amount of research confirms this
finding.The benefits of print reading particularly shine through when experimenters
move from posing simple tasks—like identifying the main idea in a reading passage—
to ones that require mental abstraction—such as drawing inferences from a text.
The differences between print and digital reading results are partly related to paper's
physical properties.With paper, there is a literal laying on of hands, along with the
visual geography of distinct pages.People often link their memory of what they've
read to how far into the book it was or where it was on the page.
But equally important is the mental aspect.Reading researchers have proposed a
theory called “shallowing hypothesis (假说)”.According to this theory, people
approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media, which are often not so
serious, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.
Audio (音频) and video can feel more engaging than text, and so university teachers
increasingly turn to these technologies—say, assigning an online talk instead of an
article by the same person.However, psychologists have demonstrated that when
adults read news stories, they remember more of the content than if they listen to or
view identical pieces.
Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing
resources not available in print.However, for maximizing learning where mental focus
and reflection are called for, educators shouldn't assume all media are the same, even
when they contain identical words.
31.What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A.Students should apply multiple learning techniques.
B.Teachers should produce their own teaching material.
C.Print texts cannot be entirely replaced in education.
D.Education outside the classroom cannot be ignored.
【解题示范】 第一步:确定题干中的关键信息:imply in the last paragraph;
第二步:确定推理依据的位置或范围是最后一段之后,再进行推理判断:
“Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing
resources not available in print.However, for maximizing learning where mental focus
and reflection are called for, educators shouldn't assume all media are the same, even
when they contain identical words.(数字文本、音频和视频都具有教育作用,尤其
是在提供印刷品中无法获得的资源时。然而,为了在需要精神集中和反思的情
况下最大限度地学习,教育工作者不应假定所有媒体都是相同的,即使它们包
含相同的单词。)”可知,尽管数字文本、音频和视频在教育中有一定作用,但
当需要精神集中和反思以最大化学习时,教育者不应假定所有媒体都是相同
的,表明作者认为纸质文本在教育中的作用仍然不可替代,因此暗示纸质文本
在教育中的重要性。故选C。
考点2 观点态度题
●辨明题类
所谓作者的观点和态度,就是表达作者对某个话题、行为、事件的看法、感觉
或判断。作者的观点和态度一般分为三大类:支持、赞同、乐观、悲观;客
观、中立;反对、批评、怀疑。作者的这种思想倾向和感情色彩往往隐含在文
章的字里行间。因此,在推断过程中,应特别注意文中作者的措辞,尤其是表
达感情色彩的形容词或副词。此类试题往往让考生推断文章作者或文中人物对
某事所持的态度、观点或看法,或推断文中人物的语气、性格等。设问形式常
有:
(1)What's the writer's attitude towards...?
(2)What is the author's opinion on...?
(3)What does the author think/feel about...?
●技法点拨
1.文章作者或文中人物对某事物所持的观点或态度往往隐含在文章的字里行间
或流露于修饰词之中,注意文中作者或人物的措辞。
(1)正确掌握字里行间所隐含或流露的意思,切忌用自己的观点来代替作者或文
中人物的观点。
(2)留意那些描写所处氛围及表达情感、态度或观点的词语或句子。
(3)关注首段首尾句,推断文章主题,确定作者观点。
2.要分清选项中的表示支持或肯定、中立、反对或否定的词语,再以此对照文
章内容。下面是一些常见的有关作者情感、态度的词语:
(1)表示支持或肯定的词语
favorable 赞同的,有利的;positive 积极的,肯定的,确实的;supportive 支持
的;reasonable 合理的;enthusiastic 热情的等。
(2)表示反对或否定的词语
critical 批评的;negative 否定的,消极的;impractical 不实际的;radical 激进
的;prejudiced 有成见的,偏颇的等。
(3)表示中立或客观的词语
objective 客观的;neutral 中立的;indifferent 漠然的等。

When I was a child I was often told what not to eat.“You don't want to get fat” was
on constant repeat throughout my childhood.It really messed up my relationship with
food—something that took me years to overcome.Because of this, I'm careful not to
connect what my kids weigh with their worth as people.I encourage my daughter to
make healthy snack choices and often dissuade(劝阻) her from a second dessert.But
one day when I heard her saying “I think I'm too fat”, my heart sank.It made me
wonder if giving her advice on snacks was having an unintentionally negative impact.
According to Charlotte Markey, a professor of psychology, food is one of the rare
subjects where, as parents, saying less is more.“There are so many things in
parenting that are good to talk through, but I'm not convinced that food is one of
them,” she says.“It just creates some worries and insecurities in kids that aren't
necessarily healthy.”
Instead, she recommends applying a well-known concept among nutrition experts
called the “Division of Responsibility” , where parents provide a variety of
mostly healthy foods to their kids at fixed times, and the kids themselves decide what
and how much they want to consume—even if that means occasionally eating more
cookies than carrots.
Allowing kids to eat what they want also exposes them to the natural consequences of
their decisions.“When your child says, ‘My stomach hurts’ , you can say,
‘Well you had a lot of sugary foods and you might feel better if you made some
other choices,’” says Markey.“Let them feel like they have some control over
it.”
I've been trying out these strategies and I've found that when I'm less restrictive, they
do make better decisions.“Feeding is a long game,” says Markey.“The food you
have available makes a huge difference.Even if they don't eat it, they're seeing it.And
then all of a sudden it clicks.”
27.What does the author think of the strategies she has been following?
A.Costly.
B.Complex.
C.Workable.
D.Contradictory.
【解题示范】 第一步:根据题干确定题型:由题干中的What does the author
think of 可知本题考查作者的观点态度。
第二步:确定答案,定位到原文,寻找相关信息:根据最后一段中“I've been
trying out these strategies and I've found that when I'm less restrictive, they do make
better decisions.”可知,孩子们确实会做出更好的决策,所以作者会认为自己所
遵循的策略是可行的。故选C。
考点3 写作意图题
●辨明题类
通常情况下,作者在文中不直接陈述自己的意图,而是通过文中所列事物使读
者感受到其所传递的想法。所以,这种题型要求考生具备对作者阐述的内容进
行总结和分析的能力。设问形式常有:
1.整篇文章的写作目的/意图
(1)The writer writes this passage in order to .
(2)The purpose of the text is to .
(3)What is the main purpose of the passage?
(4)The writer of the story wants/intends to tell us that .
2.某处细节的写作目的/意图
(1)The writer uses...in the first paragraph to .
(2)The writer uses the example of...to .
(3)The author writes the last paragraph in order to .
●技法点拨
通常可依据文体特点来推断作者的写作意图:
1.记叙文:通常会在首段或尾段出现高度概括性语言,且往往有一定的哲理
性,所有叙述都围绕该哲理展开。
2.应用文:文章常对某事物或服务进行详细介绍,使用具有明显倾向性的语
言。
3.说明文:其写作意图依赖于对文章主题句的把握,故应找准主题句。
4.议论文:一般开头提出某论点,中间进行论证,最后得出结论,写作意图常
隐含于最后一部分中。

(2025·北京卷·阅读理解D)
The call to “know yourself” has been there since ancient times, but our sense of
self doesn't always match what others perceive.Considering the stories we tell about
ourselves can help us to change our minds for better.
For many years, psychologists saw identity as a combination of someone's values,
beliefs, goals and social roles.Then, in the 1980s, Bob Johnson created the life story
model of identity, in which he proposes that, as we go through life, these core features
are built in with our memories to create a personal story through which we understand
our lives.
Our life story is something that starts coming together in our teenage years, when we
begin to organise our lives into chapters around key events or life changes, and begin
to see ourselves as both the central character and, to a varying extent, the story's
author.People with more consistent stories tend to have a stronger sense of identity,
and they feel their life has more meaning, direction and sense of purpose.Such people
show greater overall life satisfaction, too.
Johnson has also investigated the link between well-being and certain story themes.He
discovered that whether someone describes having had some control over events in
their past is an important predictor of a person's mental health.Another key theme
involves finding some kind of positive meaning after stressful events.“People could
talk about gaining knowledge or personal growth ,” says Johnson.His research
shows that this is often missing for people with mental health conditions.The good
news is that there is evidence we can learn to change our own story.
Lisa Green, another researcher, sounds a few notes of caution(谨慎).For instance,
hearing about the power of redemptive( 拯救性的) stories, many people may feel
forced to find a positive angle on horrible events.She says that Western culture
already pushes people to look for the silver lining behind every cloud.
If you want to turn over a new leaf, though, one top tip is that it helps to choose a
significant date that signals the start of a new “chapter” .Contrary to popular
doubt, resolutions made on 1 January are more effective for this reason.So, whether
your goal is saving money or getting fit, there is no better time to become the author
of our own destiny(命运).
33.What does the author mainly do in this passage?
A.Clarify a goal.
B.Analyse an event.
C.Make a comparison.
D.Illustrate an approach.
【解题示范】 第一步:确定题干中的关键信息:What does the author mainly
do,由题干中的信息可知,该题考查的是作者的写作意图。
第二步:根据题型特点和文章内容,确定应考虑的主要段落:通读全文,尤其
是第一段“The call to ‘know yourself’ has been there since ancient times, but our
sense of self doesn't always match what others perceive.Considering the stories we
tell about ourselves can help us to change our minds for better.”和第二段中“Then,
in the 1980s, Bob Johnson created the life story model of identity, in which he
proposes that, as we go through life, these core features are built in with our memories
to create a personal story through which we understand our lives.”以及第四段中
“ Johnson has also investigated the link between well-being and certain story
themes.”可知,文章主要阐述了个人故事与自我认同、幸福感之间的关系,并
举例说明了如何通过改变个人故事来影响自我认同和幸福感,因此作者主要是
在阐述一种方法。故选D。

Heating and lighting buildings consume a significant portion of global energy—about
18%, according to the International Energy Agency.Many buildings have outdated
HVAC systems(空调通风系统) that respond slowly to weather changes, leading to
energy waste.However, AI is seen as a potential solution.While AI itself can be
energy-intensive—Microsoft has acknowledged that its AI development threatens
climate goals—experts believe AI can improve energy efficiency in large buildings.A
2024 study suggests that AI could reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions
in buildings by at least 8%, and initial efforts to integrate AI into HVAC systems have
been promising.
Sam Ramadori, CEO of BrainBox AI, explains that large buildings often have
thousands of HVAC components that need to work together efficiently.His company's
technology uses predictive AI to send instructions every five minutes to various parts
of the system, optimizing energy use and comfort.For example, the AI system at 45
Broadway begins warming the building in prediction of a cold front, and it adjusts
heat distribution based on sunlight exposure.
Researchers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have also explored AI's
potential in building efficiency.Their study suggests that integrating AI with HVAC
systems could reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions by 8% to 19%, or
even more with active policy measures.AI can help minimize a building's carbon
footprint throughout its lifecycle, from design to maintenance, by predicting
equipment failures and reducing downtime(停工期).
Other initiatives have shown similar benefits.In Stockholm, AI tools were applied in
87 HVAC systems in educational facilities, resulting in an annual reduction of 64 tons
of carbon dioxide equivalent( 等量) and an 8% decrease in electricity usage.The
University of Maryland's Center for Environmental Energy Engineering also supports
the idea that AI can significantly reduce power consumption in complex HVAC
systems, especially those with both indoor and outdoor units.
As the globe warms, efficient cooling systems will be increasingly important.Arash
Zarmehr, a building performance consultant at the engineering firm WSP, says that
“AI engineers are aware that human controls on HVAC systems reduce
efficiencies,” he says.“AI can help us move toward the actual decarbonization of
buildings.”
1.What does the 2024 study show?
A.AI contributes to climate change.
B.AI consumes much global energy.
C.AI decreases energy consumption.
D.AI is widely used in HVAC systems.
2.How can AI help building efficiency?
A.By shortening a building's lifecycle.
B.By minimizing HVAC's components.
C.By regulating heat distribution randomly.
D.By telling equipment failures in advance.
3.What is Arash Zarmehr's attitude towards the use of AI?
A.Favorable.
B.Neutral.
C.Skeptical.
D.Pessimistic.
4.What can be the best title of the text?
A.The Challenges of AI's Rise
B.The Energy Use in Buildings

Annie Smith, 32, went into labor as floodwaters from Hurricane Harvey surrounded
her apartment.With the roads underwater, the two-mile drive to the hospital was
impossible.Annie and her husband, Greg, both doctors, began preparing for a home
birth.
Greg rushed to gather supplies—scissors, sewing needles—while his mother boiled
water to sterilize (消毒) them.“I'm really starting to get scared now,” Annie told
Greg as the reality set in.A neighbor, checking on the Smiths, sent an email to their
apartment complex's message board asking for help.Within 30 minutes, at least 15
people showed up, including medical trainees from the complex.
Meanwhile, the couple had been continuously dialing 911 but never got an
answer.Finally, a call to the director of Annie's fellowship program led to action.The
director's father, who lived near a fire station, walked there to explain the situation.
Around noon, a rescue truck arrived.By then, the water had reached to a formidable
level that the vehicle couldn't get close.The Smiths' neighbors and firefighters formed
a human chain to help Annie Smith to the back of the flatbed truck.“I held onto them
one person at a time,” she said, moving on her hands and knees along their arms
until she reached the ladder safely.She sat on a blanket in the truck, a shower curtain
over her head, as they drove through the flood.
The Smiths arrived at Texas Children's Hospital about 15 minutes later.An hour later,
their daughter Adrielle was born, weighing 7 pounds, 6 ounces.The couple, exhausted
but relieved, appreciated the neighbors and firemen who had come to their aid.“It
was absolutely incredible how many people responded and were out in the rain trying
to help us,” Annie said.

In today's fast-paced world, joy can often feel hard to find.However, Zadie Smith
offers a refreshing perspective on the concept of joy and its significance in our lives,
in her essay Joy.Through a blend of personal anecdotes, literary references, and
thought-provoking insights, Smith explores the complexities of joy and its
relationship to happiness.
Smith explores the definition and perception of joy, distinguishing it from happiness,
which originates from internal contentment rather than external circumstances.She
finds joy in small pleasures of life, such as interactions with a child or observing daily
routines.While society often views joy as short-lived or shallow, prioritizing grand
achievements and material pursuits, Smith challenges this notion, arguing that joy in
simple things significantly enhances our well-being.
One of the key aspects of Smith's essay is her exploration of the role of literature in
capturing and conveying joy.She claims that by immersing ourselves in the stories and
experiences of others, we can broaden our horizons and find joy in the shared human
experience.This insight emphasizes the importance of storytelling and the arts in
fostering a sense of joy and connection in society.
Smith also digs into how identity shapes our understanding of joy, reflecting on her
multicultural background and its influence on her views.She highlights how joy is
often rooted in cultural legacy and individual experiences, emphasizing the value of
embracing diverse identities.
Furthermore, Smith examines the role of community and social connections in
fostering joy.She argues that joy is often connected with our relationships and the
sense of belonging we get from them.Sharing laughter or celebrating together with
others can make our joy stronger and build a sense of community.

Dragons, mythical creatures of power and magic, have captured the imagination of
people across cultures for centuries.However, the perception and symbolism of
dragons differ significantly between Eastern and Western cultures.
In the East, particularly in China, the dragon is a respectable symbol of power,
strength, and good luck.It is often associated with the elements of water and is
believed to have the ability to control rain and floods.The Chinese dragon most
resembles a snake, and has four claws and no wings.It also represents the imperial
power, so ancient Chinese emperors decorated their clothes with dragon patterns,
which were known as dragon robes.The dragon is often used in traditional art and
festivals in China, such as the Dragon Boat Festival.Many Chinese view the dragon as
a national representative, thus proudly referring to themselves as “Generations of
the Dragon”.
In contrast, Western dragon culture portrays dragons as fearsome, fire-breathing
creatures that spread violence and terror throughout the land.They are typically shown
with large, bat-like wings, sharp claws, and a long tail.Western dragons are known for
guarding vast piles of gold and jewels and are often defeated by heroes in various
stories.They symbolize chaos and destruction, and their defeat is seen as a triumph of
good over evil.
Despite these differences, dragons in both cultures are seen as powerful and wise
beings.They are a source of fascination and have inspired countless stories, art, and
even modern-day movies and games.The dragon's ability to fly and its connection to
the element make it a symbol of freedom and have the ability to overcome
obstacles.Today, dragons continue to evolve, exceeding traditional boundaries and
finding new significance in global culture.They are no longer associated with evil or
good, but rather as complex characters with their own unique personalities and
motivations.

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) created a lot of informative weather activities
and virtual labs they recommend for students and educators.In fact, their weather
science content for kids features a Weather Lab application that allows middle school
students to predict weather patterns, and learn what happens when ocean currents and
air masses interact.
Simulations(模拟) for Science and Math
It is a project of the University of Colorado Boulder and one of the richest single
databases of online science interactives and virtual labs.Investigate more than 150
physics, chemistry, math, biology, and Earth science topics.Available in dozens of
languages, the interactives are searchable by grade level, subject, and accessibility.
