    In a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a
    drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald (秃的) head, she wore a pink hat that
    matched her clothes. But the third grader's cheery dressing didn't mask her pain and weary eyes.
    Then a visitor showed up. "Do you want to write a song?" asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart
    equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. "Have you ever
    written a poem?" Anita Kruse continued. "Well, yes," Simran said.
    Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone. "Some bird soaring through the
    sky," she said softly. "Imagination in its head…" Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣, 唱)
    birds, and finally the girl's voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.
    That was the beginning of Anita Kruse's project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more
    than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the
    hospital,  Kruse said that the idea of how she could help "came in one flash".
    The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood
    unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin's disease who
    rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he calledI Can Make It.
    "My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses," says Anita Kruse.
    "But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families."
    Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to
    her song,Always Remembering, and they always remember the "really sweet and nice and loving" lady
    who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.

故事类阅读

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 故事类阅读

故事类阅读概念:

这类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局,有人物、时间、地点和事件。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手,考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。


故事类阅读应试技巧:

1、抓住文章的6个要素:
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顺序。因此,无论是顺叙还是倒叙,阅读此类文章时,必须要找到它结构中的5个W(when, where, who, why, what)和1个H(how),不过不是每篇都会完整地交待六个要素。毫无疑问,寻出这些元素是能够正确快速解题的一个先决条件。
2、注意作者的议论和抒情:
高考英语阅读理解故事类文章常伴随着作者思想情感的流露和表达,因此议论和抒情往往夹杂其中。行文时或按事情发生发展的先后时间进行或按事情发生发展的地点来转换,也可能按事情发展的阶段来布局。在引出话题,讲完一件事情后,作者往往会表达个人感悟或提出建议等。这些体现作者观点或思想的语句在阅读时可以划线,它们往往体现文章中心或者写作意图,属于必考点,所以要仔细体会。
3、结合前两点归纳文章中心,把握作者态度:
故事类文章是通过记叙一件事来表达中心思想的,它是文章的灵魂。归纳文章中心思想时,尤其要分析文章的结尾,因为很多文章卒章显志,用简短的议论、抒情揭示文章中心;文章中议论抒情的句子往往与中心密切相关;也有的文章需要在结合概括各段大意的基础上归纳中心。另外,叙述一件事必有其目的,或阐明某一观点,或赞美某种品德,或抨击某种陋习,这就要求我们在阅读时,通过对细节(第1点中的六要素)的理解,把握作者的态度。
4、有章有据进行解题判断:
分析文章,归纳主题,属于分析、概括、综合的表述能力的考查。切忌脱离文章,架空分析,一定让分析在文章中有依据。
