    If you were to walk up to Arthur Bonner and say, "Hey, Butterfly Man," his face would break into a smile.
    The title suits him. And he loves it.
    Arthur Bonner works with the Palos Verdes blue butterfly (蝴蝶), once thought to have died out. Today the
    butterfly is coming back-thanks to him. But years ago if you'd told him this was what he'd be doing someday,
    he would have laughed," You're crazy." As a boy, he used to be "a little tough guy on the streets". At age
    thirteen, he was caught by police stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man.
    "I knew it had hurried my mom," Bonner said after he got out of prison. "So I told myself I would not put
    my mom through that pain again."
    One day he met Professor Mattoni, who was working to rebuild the habitat (栖息地) for an endangered
    butterfly called El Segundo blue.
    "I saw the sign 'Butterfly Habitat' and asked, 'How can you have a habitat when the butterflies can just fly
    away?'" Bonner recalls. "Dr. Mattoni laughed and handed me a magnifying glass (放大镜), 'Look at the leaves.'
    I could see all these caterpillars (蝴蝶的幼虫) on the plant. Dr Mattoni explained, 'Without the plant, there are
    no butterflies.'"
    Weeks later, Bonner received a call from Dr. Mattoni, who told him there was a butterfly needed help. That
    was how he met the Palos Verdes blue. Since then he's been working for four years to help bring the butterfly
    back. He grows astragalus, the only plant the butterfly eats. He collects butterflies and brings them into a lab to
    lay eggs. Then he puts new butterflies into the habitat.
    The butterfly's population, once almost zero, is now up to 900. For their work, Bonner and Dr. Mattoni
    received lots of awards. But for Bonner, he earned something more: he turned his life around.
    For six years now Bonner has kept his promise to stay out of prison. While he's bringing back the Palos
    Verdes blue, the butterfly has helped bring him back, too.

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。
