一、思維導(dǎo)圖
二、方法點(diǎn)撥
1. 設(shè)問方式
The underlined wrd “ … ” refers t/ (prbably) means .
“…” as used in the passage can best be defined as…
What d yu think the expressin “…” stands fr?
What des the underlined wrd “…” refer t in the last paragraph?
Which f the fllwing wrds can take the place f the wrd “ … ”?
The underlined wrd “…” culd best be replaced by…
Which f the fllwing has the clsest meaning t the wrd “ … ”?
What des the authr mean by “…” in paragraph 2?
2. 七大技巧
1.根據(jù)定義或上下文解釋進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
有時(shí)短文中出現(xiàn)一個(gè)需要猜測(cè)其意義的詞或短語,下面接著出現(xiàn)其定義或解釋。標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào),如逗號(hào)后的解釋(名詞同位語)、破折號(hào)后的解釋、括號(hào)內(nèi)的解釋等。這都是判斷該詞或短語意義的主要依據(jù)。例如:
例子1
Sn afterwards, many f thse peple started settling dwn t becme farmers, and their languages t became mre settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisatin, the develpment f the natin-state and the spread f universal cmpulsry educatin, especially glbalisatin and better cmmunicatins in the past few decades, all have caused many languages t disappear, and dminant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking ver.
29.Which f the fllwing best explains “dminant” underlined in paragraph 2?
A.Cmplex. B.Advanced.
C.Pwerful. D.Mdern.
[分析] 根據(jù)畫線詞所在句子可知,人類社會(huì)發(fā)展的很多因素導(dǎo)致許多語言消失,而逐漸被英語、西班牙語、漢語等語言取代,畫線詞前后的解釋暗示了這些語言逐漸占主導(dǎo)地位,故選C項(xiàng)pwerful (強(qiáng)大的,有影響力的)。
【真題小練 】 (浙江2019.6 閱讀理解B)

Statin in Ls Angeles last mnth, a bard went up with dllar bills attached t it with

( )What des the expressin "mney with n strings attached" in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Mney spent withut hesitatin. B.Mney nt legally made.
C.Mney ffered withut cnditins. D.Mney nt tied tgether.
2.根據(jù)同位關(guān)系進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
閱讀中出現(xiàn)的難詞有時(shí)后面緊跟一個(gè)同位語,對(duì)前面的詞進(jìn)行解釋,因此可利用同位關(guān)系對(duì)前面的詞義或句意進(jìn)行猜測(cè)。例如:
例子2
I am Peter Hdes, a vlunteer stem cell curier. Since March 2012, I've dne 89 trips — f thse, 51 have been abrad. I have 42 hurs t carry stem cells (干細(xì)胞) in my little bx because I've gt tw ice packs and that's hw lng they last. In all, frm the time the stem cells are harvested frm a dnr (捐獻(xiàn)者) t the time they can be implanted in the patient, we've gt 72 hurs at mst. S I am always cnscius f time.
29.Which f the fllwing can replace the underlined wrd “curier” in Paragraph 1?
A.prvider B.delivery man
C.cllectr D.medical dctr
[分析] “a vlunteer stem cell curier”是“Peter Hdes”的同位語;根據(jù)文中“I have 42 hurs t carry stem cells (干細(xì)胞) in my little bx”可知,Peter Hdes的任務(wù)就是將捐獻(xiàn)者捐獻(xiàn)的干細(xì)胞運(yùn)送給需要的病人,即作者是干細(xì)胞遞送員。故選擇B項(xiàng)。
3.根據(jù)構(gòu)詞法(前綴、后綴、派生等)進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
在英語中,有很多詞可以通過增加前綴和后綴的方式,構(gòu)成新詞。乍看起來,這個(gè)詞可能是新詞,但在掌握了一定的構(gòu)詞知識(shí)之后,就不難猜出它的詞義。例如:
①“Our parties are aimed fr children 2 t 10,” Anacleri said, “and they're very interactive and creative in that they built a sense f drama based n a subject.”
文中interactive是由前綴inter-(相互的)和active(活動(dòng)的,活躍的)構(gòu)成的,同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的意思可以判斷,該詞的含義應(yīng)是“互動(dòng)的”。
②Perhaps, we can see sme pssibilities fr next fifty years. But the next hundred?
pssibility是pssible的同根名詞,據(jù)此可以判斷pssibility的意思是“可能性”。
例子3
A silence in a cnversatin may als shw stubbrnness, uneasiness,_r wrry.
[分析] 根據(jù)構(gòu)詞法知識(shí)我們可知,un-為否定前綴,-ness為名詞后綴,easy(舒適)為詞根。因此,我們可猜測(cè)uneasiness為“不安;擔(dān)憂”之意。
(全國(guó)II 2014 閱讀理解A)
My husband rushed t their hme t find a kind family hlding all papers and dcuments. Their yung daughter had gne t the trash can and fund a pile f unfamiliar last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephne number t a friend. That family nt nly returned the imprtant dcuments t us that day, but als restred ur faith and trust in peple. We still remember their kindness and ften send a warm wish their way.
( )What des the underlined wrd “restred” in the last paragraph mean?
shwed. B. sent ut. C. delivered. D. gave back
4.根據(jù)因果關(guān)系進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
在一篇閱讀文章中,根據(jù)原因可以預(yù)測(cè)結(jié)果,根據(jù)結(jié)果也可以找出原因。例如:
例子4
If yu have a_juicer,_yu can simply feed in frzen bananas and sme berries r sliced fruit. Out cmes a “sftserve” creamy dessert, t be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity fr a children's party; they lve feeding the fruit and frzen bananas int the tp f the machine and watching the ice cream cme ut belw.
26.What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph?
A.A dessert. B.A drink.
C.A cntainer. D.A machine.
[分析] 該段第一句含有一個(gè)if引導(dǎo)的條件狀語從句,若滿足該條件,則產(chǎn)生的結(jié)果是第一句的后半句和第二句, “yu can simply feed in frzen bananas and sme berries r sliced fruit. Out cmes a ‘sft-serve’ creamy dessert, t be eaten right away.” 即“將冰凍香蕉和其他莓類、水果片放進(jìn)去,出來的是奶油狀甜品”。由此因果關(guān)系可推知juicer指的是榨汁機(jī)。故選擇D項(xiàng)。
5.根據(jù)上下文的指代關(guān)系進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
文章中的代詞it, that, he, him或them可以指代上文提到的人或物,其中it和that還可以指代一件事。有時(shí)代詞指代的對(duì)象相隔較遠(yuǎn),要認(rèn)真查找;有時(shí)也需要對(duì)前面提到的內(nèi)容進(jìn)行總結(jié),才能得出代詞所指代的事物。例如:
例子5
[2]Despite the celebratins, thugh, in the U.S.the jazz audience cntinues t shrink and grw lder, and the music has failed t cnnect with yunger generatins.
[3]It's Jasn Mran's jb t help change that.As the Kennedy Center's artistic adviser fr jazz, Mran hpes t widen the audience fr jazz, make the music mre accessible, and preserve its histry and culture.

29.What des the underlined wrd “that” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A.Jazz becming mre accessible.
B.The prductin f jazz grwing faster.
C.Jazz being less ppular with the yung.
D.The jazz audience becming larger.
[分析] 根據(jù)語境可知,畫線詞that指代第二段“Despite the celebratins, thugh, in the U.S. the jazz audience cntinues t shrink and grw lder, and the music has failed t cnnect with yunger generatins.”的內(nèi)容,即爵士樂聽眾的數(shù)量減少并且趨于老齡化,不受年輕人喜歡的現(xiàn)狀。故選C。
6.根據(jù)同義或近義關(guān)系進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
在同一句、同一段或同一篇文章中,作者為了避免語言的單調(diào)、重復(fù),有時(shí)會(huì)使用意思相同或相近的詞。因此,考生只要讀懂上下文,知道其中一個(gè)詞的意思,就能猜出另外一個(gè)詞的意思。
[例] (2018·全國(guó)卷Ⅲ閱讀D節(jié)選)
Adults understand what it feels like t be flded with bjects. Why d we ften assume that mre_is_mre when it cmes t kids and their belngings? The gd news is that I can help my wn kids learn earlier than I did hw t live mre with less.
例子6…
32.What d the wrds “mre is mre” in paragraph 1 prbably mean?
A.The mre, the better.
B.Enugh is enugh.
C.Mre mney, mre wrries.
D.Earn mre and spend mre.
[分析] 根據(jù)該段第一句“Adults understand what it feels like t be flded with bjects.”可知,作者認(rèn)為成年人都理解物質(zhì)過剩的那種感覺,后面又用反問句提出了問題:但是,說到孩子們和他們的物品,我們?yōu)槭裁赐ǔS终J(rèn)定mre is mre呢?由此推知,這里的 mre is mre與前面的 flded with為近義呼應(yīng),指“越多越好”。故選A。
7.根據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)折或?qū)Ρ汝P(guān)系進(jìn)行猜測(cè)
根據(jù)上下句的連接詞,如but, hwever, therwise等可以推斷上下文之間的邏輯關(guān)系,從而可以依據(jù)某一句的含義,來確定另一句的含義。另外,分號(hào)也可以表示轉(zhuǎn)折、對(duì)比或不相干的意義。例如:
①A child's birthday party desn't have t be a hassle;_it can be a basket f fun.
從分號(hào)前后兩句的意思可以看出,hassle和a basket f fun是相反的意義,所以不難判斷hassle的意思是“困難,麻煩”。
②She is usually prmpt fr all her class, but tday she arrived in the middle f her first class.
but一詞表示轉(zhuǎn)折,因此but前后的意思正好相反。根據(jù)后半句的意思“她今天第一節(jié)課上了一半才來”,可得出她平時(shí)一向“準(zhǔn)時(shí)”的結(jié)論。
③The players in the Wrld Cup are prfessinals, while thse wh play in the Olympics must be amateurs.
由于轉(zhuǎn)折詞“while”引導(dǎo)的兩個(gè)分句前后意義相反,我們可推測(cè)出amateurs是prfessinals(專業(yè)人士)的反義詞,意思為“業(yè)余人士,業(yè)余選手”。
例子7…
Gray wlves nce were seen here and there in the Yellwstne area and much f the cntinental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human develpment. By the 1920s, wlves had practically disappeared frm the Yellwstne area. They went farther nrth int the deep frests f Canada, where there were fewer humans arund.

29.What des the underlined wrd “displaced” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Tested. B.Separated.
C.Frced ut. D.Tracked dwn.
[分析] 畫線詞的前句說明在黃石公園和美洲大部分地區(qū)曾有許多的灰狼,連詞but轉(zhuǎn)折了句子意義,后來由于人類的發(fā)展,灰狼數(shù)量逐漸減少,幾乎消失,由此可推斷出畫線詞的意思為“被迫離開”,故選擇C項(xiàng)。

【28題詳解】
詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段劃線詞前文“Thrughut her career(職業(yè)) as a prfessinal dancer, she tured in the UK, but always lnged t explre further. (在她的職業(yè)舞蹈演員生涯中,她曾在英國(guó)巡演,但一直渴望進(jìn)一步探索)”和“When she retired frm dancing and her sns eventually flew the nest (當(dāng)她不再跳舞,她的兒子們最終獨(dú)立生活)”可知,Ginni在退休和兒子們成家立業(yè)之后,她決定嘗試有挑戰(zhàn)性的事情。由此推知,劃線詞組take the plunge與try challenging things“嘗試有挑戰(zhàn)性的事情”意思接近。故選A。

Returning t a bk yu’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an ld friend. There’s a welcme familiarity — but als smetimes a slight suspicin that time has changed yu bth, and thus the relatinship. But bks dn’t change, peple d. And that’s what makes the act f rereading s rich and transfrmative.
The beauty f rereading lies in the idea that ur bnd with the wrk is based n ur present mental register. It’s true, the lder I get, the mre I feel time has wings. But with reading, it’s all abut the present. It’s abut the nw and what ne cntributes t the nw, because reading is a give and take between authr and reader. Each has t pull their wn weight.
There are three bks I reread annually. The first, which I take t reading every spring, is Ernest Hemingway’s A Mveable Feast. Published in 1964, it’s his classic memir f 1920s Paris. The language is almst intxicating (令人陶醉的 ), an aging writer lking back n an ambitius yet simpler time. Anther is Annie Dillard’s Hly the Firm, her petic 1975 ramble ( 隨 筆 ) abut everything and nthing. The third bk is Juli Crtázar’s Save Twilight: Selected Pems, because petry. And because Crtázar.
While I tend t buy a lt f bks, these three were given t me as gifts, which might add t the meaning I attach t them. But I imagine that, while mney is indeed wnderful and necessary, rereading an authr’s wrk is the highest currency a reader can pay them. The best bks are the nes that pen further as time passes. But remember, it’s yu that has t grw and read and reread in rder t better understand yur friends.

Studying a subject that yu feel pintless is never a fun r easy task. If yu're studying histry, asking yurself the questin "why is histry imprtant" is a very gd first step. Histry is an essential part f human civilizatin. Yu will find smething here that will aruse yur interest, r get yu thinking abut the significance f histry.
Histry grunds us in ur rts. Histry is an imprtant and interesting field f study, and learning the histry f ur hme cuntry can give us a deeper, mre meaningful glimpse(一瞥) int ur ancestral pasts, and hw we gt t where we are tday. Many peple feel like they need a sense f cultural belnging, which is smething that studying yur rts and being pen-minded t the evlutin f yur culture can prvide.

It can g anywhere, and there is smething in there fr abslutely anybdy.
The value f histry cannt be underestimated. We dn't have t live in the past, but we can definitely d better by learning frm it and using the lessns learnt t lead mre meaningful lives.

Scientists in Luisiana were s cncerned that they decided t pay hunters $5 a tail. Sme f the fur ends up in the fashin shws like the ne in Brklyn last mnth.
Nutria were brught there frm Argentina by fur farmers and let g int the wild. “The ecsystem dwn there can’t handle this nn-native species (物種). It’s destrying the envirnment. It’s them r us,” says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.
The fur trade kept nutria in check fr decades, but when the market fr nutria cllapsed in the late 1980s, the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.
30. ( )What des the underlined wrd “cllapsed” in paragraph 5 prbably mean?
A. Bmed.B. Became mature.C. Remained stable.D. Crashed.
【答案】30.D
詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第五段"but when the market fr nutria cllapsed in the late 1980s, the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy."可知,只有在海貍鼠市場(chǎng)倒閉或者崩潰之后,海貍鼠才開始瘋狂擴(kuò)大數(shù)量,cllapse為崩潰的意思。故選D。

When “Rise f the Planet f the Apes” was first shwn t the public last mnth, a grup f excited animal activists gathered n Hllywd Bulevard. But they weren’t there t thrw red paint n fur-cat-wearing film stars. Instead, ne activist, dressed in a full-bdy mnkey suit, had arrived with a sign praising the filmmakers: “Thanks fr nt using real apes (猿)!”
The creative team behind “Apes” used mtin-capture (動(dòng)作捕捉) technlgy t create digitalized animals, spending tens f millins f dllars n technlgy that recrds an actr’s perfrmance and later prcesses it with cmputer graphics t create a final image (圖像). In this case, ne f a realistic-lking ape.

2020年新高考全國(guó)Ⅰ卷(山東卷) C 篇
In the mid-1990s, Tm Bissell taught English as a vlunteer in Uzbekistan. He left after seven mnths, physically brken and having lst his mind. A few years later, still attracted t the cuntry, he returned t Uzbekistan t write an article abut the disappearance f the Aral Sea.
His visit, hwever, ended up invlving a lt mre than that. Hence this bk, Chasing the Sea: Lst Amng the Ghsts f Empire in Central Asia, which talks abut a rad trip frm Tashkent t Karakalpakstan, where millins f lives have been destryed by the slw drying up f the sea. It is the stry f an American travelling t a strange land, and f the peple he meets n his way: Rustam, his translatr, a lvely 24-year-ld wh picked up his clrful English in Califrnia, Oleg and Natasha, his hsts in Tashkent, and a string f freign aid wrkers.
This is a quick lk at life in Uzbekistan, made f friendliness and warmth, but als its darker side f sciety. In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wnders, while n his way t Bukhara he gets a taste f plice methds when suspected f drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends a muntain funeral (葬禮) fllwed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is saddened by the dust strms, diseases and fishing bats stuck miles frm the sea.
Mr Bissell skillfully rganizes histrical insights and cultural references, making his tale a well-runded picture f Uzbekistan, seen frm Western eyes. His judgment and references are decidedly American, as well as his delicate stmach. As the authr explains, this is neither a travel nr a histry bk, r even a piece f reprtage. Whatever it is, the result is a fine and vivid descriptin f the purest f Central Asian traditins.
9. ( )What des the underlined wrd “that” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Develping a serius mental disease. B. Taking a guided tur in Central Asia.
C. Wrking as a vlunteer in Uzbekistan. D. Writing an article abut the Aral Sea.
【答案】9.D
代詞指代題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句A few years later, still attracted t the cuntry, he returned t Uzbekistan t write an article abut the disappearance f the Aral Sea.(幾年后,仍然被這個(gè)國(guó)家所吸引。他回到烏茲別克斯坦寫了一篇關(guān)于咸海消失的文章)可知,that指代寫了一篇關(guān)于死海消失的文章這件事。故選D。

A.Big eaters. B.Overweight persns.
C.Picky eaters. D.Tall thin persns.
【答案】2.D
【解析】
2.詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)前半句And cntrary t existing research that says yu shuld avid eating with heavier peple wh rder large prtins可知,現(xiàn)有的研究認(rèn)為,你應(yīng)該避免和體重較重、點(diǎn)大份飯菜的人一起吃飯。后半句認(rèn)為,你真正應(yīng)該避免的是the beanples with big appetites。由cntrary t可推斷出,畫線詞和heavier peple(超重的人)相反,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知,D選項(xiàng)(瘦瘦高高的人)正好和heavier peple相反。故選D。

Our wn native language and culture are s much a part f us that we take them fr granted. When we travel t anther cuntry, it’s as if we carry alng with ur passprts.

Q: The underlined wrd “it” in the last sentence refers t __________.
the cntext B. the culture C. the language D. the pprtunity
答案與解析:
(1)D。根據(jù)下文中All the newspaper says is, “This is what the advertiser says.”可推知,文章中的Smebdy Else指的是做廣告的人。
(2)B。從上文可知,在一個(gè)從未到過的地方,在一本從未讀過的書的封面,看到自己親筆寫的姓名和地址,當(dāng)然感到“震驚”。此處“But”是關(guān)鍵提示。
(3)A。根據(jù)下句“氧是所有動(dòng)物細(xì)胞所必不可少的元素”的內(nèi)容,判斷出氧非常“重要”。
(4)B。由下句“Smene wh cannt d mathematics may have a disrder called dyscalculia(計(jì)算困難).”不能做數(shù)學(xué)題的人可能患有一種被稱為計(jì)算困難的疾病可以推斷dyslexia的意思為“閱讀困難”。
(5)C。通過上下句A child’s birthday party desn’t have t be a hassle; it can be a basket f fun.可以看出,hassle和a basket f fun肯定是近乎相反的意義。所以不難判斷,答案為C。
(6)B。由破折號(hào)后的r可知,前后兩句的意思相近,她不想失去或破壞這個(gè)友好氛圍,否則就又讓她回到以前的“沖突”中。答案為B。
(7)B。從上文中她進(jìn)入商店時(shí)并沒打算偷竊,以及下文談到她去看醫(yī)生可以推知她不知道自己為什么會(huì)有偷竊的欲望可知答案為B。
(8)C。根據(jù)諺語“Early t bed and early t rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wisdm”以及retirees和risers的對(duì)比關(guān)系不難猜出retiree是“睡覺的人”。
(9)A。由合成詞ut-f-the-way的字面意思和下句中的islatin一詞可知,燈塔通?!肮铝懔恪钡卮粼谝粋€(gè)地方,因此答案為A。
(10)C。本段主要講述語言和文化的關(guān)系。結(jié)合最后一句話可知,學(xué)習(xí)一門新的語言給我們提供一個(gè)嶄新的視覺,從而使得我們更好地把握語言依附的文化環(huán)境。由此知道這里的it指代語言。
