    I told my friend Graham that I often cycle the two miles from my house to the town centre but
    unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, "You mean fortunately." He explained that
    I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.
    My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to grumble as I approached it but now I tell
    myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get
    fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally as I wend my way up the incline I
    console myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on
    stationery exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smug smile of satisfaction
    as I reach the top of the hill.
    Problems are there to be faced and overcome. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person
    to gain a University degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote, "Character
    cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul
    be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved."
    One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towardsadversity. From time to
    time we all face hardships, problems, accidents, afflictions and difficulties. Some are of our making
    but many confront us through no fault of our own. Whilst we cannot choose the adversity we can
    choose our attitude towards it.
    The biographies of great people are littered with examples of how they took these kinds of steps
    to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become defeatist or
    depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.

    1. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

    A. Attitude makes difference
    B. Well begun is half done.
    C. The early bird gets the worm.
    D. Easier said than done.

    2. From Helen Keller's example we can infer that__________.

    A. Great people are born to be great and successful
    B. Life is hard and difficult so we have to give up
    C. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life
    D. Practice makes people successful and powerful

    3. What do you think the author is most likely to suggest if he/she continues to write?

    A. Some examples of our daily life.
    B. His stories of overcoming difficulties.
    C. Stories of some unlucky great people.
    D. Some examples of his friend Graham.

    4. The underlined word "adversity" in the fourth paragraph probably NOT refers to ______.

    A. problems
    B. difficulties
    C. hardships
    D. advertisements

日常生活类阅读

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。
  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
