    Mr. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car
    yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape
    route-through the boot (行李箱).
    Mr. Johnson’s car had finished up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice
    and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johnson said. "I couldn’t
    force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in."
    Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other
    motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.
    Later he said, "It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket
    and I used it to unscrew(拧开) the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer
    trying to make someone hear, but no help came."
    It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the
    boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. "It was the only chance I had.Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud
    poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and climbed out as the car filled up."
    His hands and arms cut and bruised, Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked
    after by the farmer’s wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed
    like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into
    two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.
    1. Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr. Johnson?
    A. The hammer.
    B. The screw.
    C. The coin.
    D. The horn.
    2. "Finally it gave"(Paragraph 5) means that _____.
    A. Luckily the door was torn away in the end
    B. At last the wrench went broken
    C. The chance was lost at the last minute
    D. The lock came open after all his efforts
    3. Which statement is true according to the passage?
    A. Mr. Johnson’s car stood on its boot as it fell down.
    B. Mr. Johnson’s car accident was partly due to the icy road.
    C. Mr. Johnson could not escape from the door because it was full of sweet jam.
    D. Mr. Johnson struggled in the pouring mud as he unscrewed the back seat.
    4. What is the best title for this newspaper article?
    A. The Story of Mr. Johnson, A Sweet Salesman
    B. Driver Escapes Through Car Boot
    C. Car Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape Route

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。
