阅读理解的考查方式及应对策略(二) 4.结论或推论性考查 这类题目答案的选择往往无所谓正确与错误之分，而是最佳与非最佳之差别。同学们须读懂通篇文章，弄懂作者的写作主旨，按照文章事件发生的内容过程和逻辑关系，做出符合原文逻辑或主旨的结论或推论，才能确定正确答案。 5.拟选题目考查 一篇文章究竟应加一个什么样的题目为最佳，这不但取决于文章的内容，也取决于标题的特点。英语文章标题的特点一般是省略冠词、be动词或作定语用的人称代词，且多以短语或简单句为主。确定标题的一般原则是：一要切题，即能够概括出全文的主旨；二要简洁，即方案要简单明了。 Passage 1 一、阅读理解 Thomas Edison lost his first job.For the next five years he went around the country from job to job.At last Edison went to New York.He had little money.He could not buy enough food to eat.He had no place to sleep.

Why?” 可知Mike不同意父亲的说法。 13.A。Mike 没有回答他父亲，反而问他父亲问题。 14.B。根据实际情况可知Thomas Edison发明了电灯。 15.B。Mr Clarke 对Mike 提出的问题无言回答。 1.He could not buy enough food to eat.他没钱买足够吃的食物。(Line 2, Passage 1) enough 用作形容词修饰名词时，置于被修饰词前或后均可；enough 用作副词修饰形容词或副词时，需置于被修饰词之后。例如： You have enough time (=time enough)to finish the work.你有足够的时间完成这项工作。 He is old enough to go to school.他够上学的年龄了。 He ran fast enough.他跑得足够快。 2.He was interested in everything.他对一切都感兴趣。(Line 12, Passage 2) interesting 和interested 都用作形容词，意为 “有趣的”，interesting表示事物本身有趣，可作定语或表语；而interested 只作表语，常构成短语be/become interested in 表示“对……感兴趣”。例如： That boy was/became interested in the interesting picturebook.那个男孩对这本有趣的图画书产生了兴趣。 |
