    Forty-three years seems like a long time to remember the name of a mere acquaintance. I have forgotten
    the name of the old lady, who was a customer on the paper route in my hometown when I was a twelve-year-
    old boy. Yet it exists in my memory that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness which I shall never forget.
    On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stones onto the roof of the old lady's house. The
    object of our play was to observe how the stones changed to missiles as they rolled to the edge of the roof.
    I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped
    from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window on the old lady's back
    porch. At the sound of crashed glass, we knew we were in trouble and ran away.
    I was too scared about getting caught that first night to be concerned about the old lady with the broken
    window in winter. However, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn't been discovered, I started to feel
    guilty for her misfortune. She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper, but I was no
    longer able to act comfortable in her presence.
    I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the seven dollars
    to cover the cost of her window. I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for
    breaking her window and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it.
    I waited until it was dark,snuck upto the old lady's house, and put the letter I didn't sign through the letter
    slot in her door. Once again, I could have the freedom of looking straight into the old lady's kind eyes.
    The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was receiving
    from her. She thanked me for the paper and gave me a bag of cookies she had made herself.
    Reaching for the cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was
    surprised. Inside were the seven dollars and a short note that said, "I'm proud of you!"
    1. Which of the following sentences is NOT true according to the passage?
    A. The author was a newsboy when he was 12 years old.
    B. The old lady didn't know who broke the window.

    3. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

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。
