         A newly-married Sweden couple on a four-month honeymoon were hit by a series of natural
    disasters, such as the Australian floods, Christchurch earthquake and Japanese tsunami.
         Stefan and Erika Svanstrom left Stockholm, Sweden, on December 6 and were immediately
    trapped in Munich, Germany, due to one of Europe's worst snowstorms. Traveling with their baby
    daughter, they flew on to Cairns in Australia which was then struck by one of the most fierce
    cyclones(龙卷风) in the nation's history. From there, the couple were forced to shelter for 24 hours
    on the cold floor of a shopping centre with 2500 others.
         "Trees were being knocked over and big branches were scattered across the streets," Mr
    Svanstrom told Sweden's Expressen newspaper. "We escaped by the skin of our teeth. It was so
    close an encounter with death."
         They then headed south to Brisbane but the city was experiencing massive flooding, so they
    crossed the country to Perth where they narrowly escaped raging bush fires. The couple then flew
    to Christchurch, New Zealand, arriving just after a massive magnitude(震级) 6.3 earthquake
    destroyed the city on February 22.
         Mrs Svanstrom said, "When we got there the whole town was a war zone."
         "We could not visit the city since it was completely blocked off, so instead we traveled around
    before going to Japan."
         But days after the Svanstroms arrived, Tokyo was rocked by Japan's largest earthquake since
    records began. "The trembling was horrible and we saw roofs fly off the buildings," Mr Svanstrom
    said. "It was like the buildings were shaking back and forth."
         The family returned to Stockholm on March 29 after a much calmer visit to their last destination
    China. But Mr Svanstrom ---who also survived the destructive tsunami that hit southeast Asia in
    2004 ---said the marriage was still going strong. He added, "I know marriages have to endure some
    trials (考验), but I think we have been through most of them. We've certainly experienced more than
    our fair share of disasters, but the most important thing is that we're together and happy."

    1. How many disasters in total did the couple experience during their honeymoon?

    A.Three.      
    B. Four.    
    C. Five.    
    D. Six.

    2. Which of the following expressions can replace the underlined sentence?

    A.We ran away in fear.
    B.We narrowly escaped from the cyclone.
    C.We escaped with others' help.
    D.We ran away fortunately.

    3. What is the real meaning of what Mr Svanstrom said after the honeymoon?

    A.He regarded the disasters as the tests in their marriage and would face any difficulty without fear.
    B.He felt fortunate that they survived the disasters but dared not travel again in a period of time.
    C.He thought they should share the suffering and would provide disaster relief to the affected areas.
    D.He believed the horrible experience a sign that they should not be together and they might break up.

    A.A Series of Natural Disasters
    B.The Unforgettable Honeymoon From Hell

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。
